Chapter 1439 - Birthday Party (Part 1)

"I missed you more, Solus. I'm sorry, but I needed and I still need to be alone. You can't ask me to forget about the loss of Lark and Mirim in a few days. Let alone a three years long relationship with a woman I might have married." Lith caressed and kissed the top of her head while sighing deeply.

"But, you never cut me out of your life like this before." She replied, hugging him more tightly.

?

"That's because you never had a body before. I need to sort out my feelings, not to make them even messier. We are both lonely and our emotional feedback is akin to my drinking alcohol with Faluel.

"I don't want to do something that we would both regret later." Lith said.

Solus had actually a lot to say, but she understood his feelings and respected his wishes.

"Okay. We have experienced only three breathing techniques for long enough to allow me to study them." She conjured three different body holograms to aid her explanation, but she didn't release him from her embrace, sitting on his lap instead.

"The first is Scarlett's Aura. From what I could perceive while she interrogated us, Scarlett is able to mix Spirit Magic with the world energy so that when she floods her target's body with it, she can do the next best thing to mind reading.

"The world energy allows her to get so deep in your head that when you answer a question she knows when you're lying. Also, by seeping deep inside the brain, Aura allows her to obtain an effect similar to the Soul Projection."

"Fascinating. What more?" Lith nodded.

"The second is Faluel's Lifestream which also is the technique we have experienced so many times that I know it best. Unlike Aura, Lifestream is more focused on the body than the mind, allowing Faluel to almost hijack the mana flow of others.

"She has demonstrated to be capable of not only manipulating someone's body akin to Body Sculpting, but also of making mana cores, flows, and even impurities visible to the naked eye." She said.

"If I managed to do the same, I could pass my breathing technique off as a spell and become the best healer in the Kingdom. Not even Manohar could compete with me then." Lith said.

"Yeah, and as the new god of healing, you would have to take his place. I'm sure Manohar would love it." Solus chuckled.

"The third one is Malyshka's Sun and Moon. Even though she used it on you for several minutes, I didn't get much. Based on her words, however, I'm betting that it's better than Aura and Lifestream combined."

"Well, Scarlett and even the Hydra bloodline are newborns compared to Baba Yaga. Her breathing technique must be capable of doing everything that any other technique can. What about our Invigoration?" Lith asked.

"It's the basic of the basics. If breathing techniques were houses, Invigoration would be a natural cave. If they were paintings, it would be a stick man. If-"

"I get it, Invigoration sucks! Now get to the point." He angrily cut Solus short, yet she chuckled as if he had made a funny joke.

"Faluel didn't exaggerate when she said that the deep violet is the best moment to start working on a better breathing technique." She replied. "At bright blue one has to compensate for the faulty vortexes and at violet, it would be too late.

"Invigoration just allows you to draw in the world energy, moving it throughout your body and into your core, but it doesn't make use of the auxiliary cores nor does it nurture them.
