First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System novel Chapter 48

Chapter 48: BrightGate City

He shook his head and boarded the carriage as well. Inside, he saw that the two of them had left the middle spot empty again and had turned their heads to opposite sides.

’...I can’t have the window seat?’ He inwardly shook his head before sitting in the middle.

Lucan whipped the horses as the carriages started travelling again.

Selene started chatting with Orion about various things, from gossiping about the kingdom to teasing him about the night.

Orion laughed at most of her things and just acted dense when she brought up the talk of the night.

"Ah, Grandma, can you tell me more about Spirit Magic? I saw Fiora summon a spirit from it but I didn’t find many records of it in Grandpa’s library." He finally changed the talk from Selene teasing him.

"Oh? She showed you her summons? That’s quite a feisty Embercat. They are a common species from one of the five main elemental planes. Did you like seeing her?" She softly asked, having already seen the cat’s attitude.

"Ah, yes, the cat was good, but the most interesting thing was the summoning circle formed during the summoning. The runes upon it were quite captivating." He nodded his head and swiftly ignored the cat’s topic.

"Yes, the summoning circle is formed with the Runic Language. You will learn that in the academy. And you will need to learn the Runic Language for a lot of stuff—like for your Awakening Rune, for creating spells in your Sea of Consciousness, even for Runesmithing, you would need that. All in all, anything related to mana needs Runic Language as its base." Selene softly explained.

’...Well, I mostly knew this.’ He silently mused.

’Haa... Lumi would have replied, [But you still went ahead and tried to form an Awakening Rune, Master!] or something like that.’ He inwardly chuckled, thinking to himself, yet a part of him already began to miss the lively banter.

"Now, let’s get back to Spirit Arts. It’s a main profession like a Runesmith. It has multiple parts, and each focuses on something different and interesting. For example, Spirit Contracts: You can form contracts with Beasts from the Spirit Worlds and can use them to battle. They can also merge with the user if their synergy is good enough."

"So, sort of like battle armor?" He curiously asked. _{freēwēbnovel.com}

"Yes, you can treat it as such. There are more interesting things for you to find on this path, like Spirit Communication, Spirit Sense, Soul Technique, Spirit Imbuement, and others."

Rina and Fiora were also listening attentively since both of them were learning this path. They never had the privilege to learn directly from someone at the level of Selene, so this was a rare opportunity for them.

"Basically, Spirit Arts are related to the Soul, right?" He continued asking questions as he was supposed to, even though some fragmented knowledge about Spirit Arts was available in his Sea of Consciousness.

"Correct. It also depends on the size of the Sea of Consciousness of the practitioner. You need an above-average Sea of Consciousness just to be eligible to train in this path. Then you also need to have compatibility with Spirit Beasts to be able to bond with them." She patiently explained.

"Anyways, you can learn more about this in the academy. Why are you using all this time to learn about this when you could be enjoying the scenery?" She changed her tone and said, as if having enough of explaining things.

’...I wanted to ask about Spirit Imbuement as well. Well, whatever, I’ll just learn about it in the academy.’ He didn’t want to ask more boring questions to his Grandma, or who knows how she’ll get back at him later?

The carriage continued to travel at a good speed. The horses were not simple wild animals but Mana Beasts which had much higher endurance and speed. That’s why they could travel such a great distance so quickly. Otherwise, with normal horses, even a month wouldn’t have been enough just to reach the city.

During this time, Fiora and Rina spoke more often in the presence of Selene and Eldric, having become much more familiar.

Eldric also shared his knowledge with him, albeit only about Thunder spells and other things he knew. And some political stuff along the way.
