It’s been 2 hours since Amon started using the [Boundless Heart] rune. His understanding of lightning almost doubled. Obviously, having a lot of advanced stage understanding, try as he might, it was difficult to even for him to understand, although he basically ‘saved’ it in his mind, storing the information to try to understand as time went on.
Squeezing both hands together, his eyes opened and became steady. Narrowing his eyes a little, Amon looked toward the picture again. However, as much as he tried, he could not at that moment understand beyond what he had already understood, or even get more information about the painting.
Closing his eyes and opening them again, Amon muttered in his mind, ‘Even without my genes boosting, I feel like I’m twice as strong as I was initially.’
Such an increase was surprising. The aura he gave off was more pure and peaceful, his genetic fury was easier to control. Not surprisingly, as strong as fury genetics are, the understanding he gained from lightning was high enough that he was able to ‘pacify’ fury genetics.
As Amon analyzed his earnings, the girls also stopped meditating. Amon’s initiative to stop meditating caused the phenomenon he created earlier, which was already weak, to disappear.
“…”
Barbara and the girls looked at each other and fought to keep from squealing with delight. Well, the gains they made were enough to bring any university genius to tears of joy. Even so, the girls didn’t seem to understand how lucky they were, although I was very happy with what they got.
‘These girls… I think because they’ve been with Amon for so long, they didn’t even notice how lucky they are.’ Bianca laughed quietly.
However, Bianca was underestimating how happy the girls are; especially the twins. If it weren’t for not being alone, the Maisas and Julia would feel that they would cry at that moment.
Unlike Barbara and Ariel, the twins ‘only’ had an affinity for normal water and their advancement was slightly lower compared to Barbara and Ariel. Not counting Amon, he was a walking hack, his growth speed was so fast it’s scary.
‘With that, I have more hope of not being left out…’ Maisa sighed internally. The relief she was feeling was perhaps even greater than Maisa’s. Although she didn’t want to show it, she was quite insecure compared to Maisa.
Julia seemed to feel Maisa’s gaze, then she turned and gave a warm smile.
“Mother, mother, listen.” Barbara walked over to Bianca, holding her arm with both arms wrapped around her, pressing against her chest, Barbara said in an excited tone, “I learned a skill thanks to the painting. It is called: Speaker of the Flame.”
“Hoh, impressive.” Bianca said with a smile as she rubbed Barbara’s head with her free hand, “Tell me, what is this skill capable of?”
“I’m not a child anymore, Mom…” Despite being a little embarrassed, Barbara pouted, however, didn’t try to take her mother’s hand away. Soon, she smiled again and said, “It’s like this, well, the skill is to use blue and red flames, it is able to inject into the enemy’s living body, it can program to explode within 20 minutes, after 20 minutes if the command to explode is not triggered, the flames will burn from the inside out.”<br/><script>ChapterMid();</script>
Bianca showed a shocked look, she herself didn’t expect Barbara to be able to learn this skill, as if there was a rank, she would be ranked S rank.
“Impressive!” Bianca was full of praise: “I’m very surprised, I didn’t expect you to be able to understand such a good skill. Honestly, I’m quite happy, and surprised by it.”
“Hehe~” Barbara touched her nose, which turned a little red, as well as her flushed face, and laughed shyly and happy to be praised.
A little amazed; Maisa and Julia were left to see Barbara interact like this with her mother. Well, no wonder, since it was hard to see Barbara display such expressions like that. 𝐨𝘃𝗹.
“Maisa, did you learn any skills?” Julia asked as she looked at her.
Maisa looked into Julia’s eyes and sighed… However, soon a smile formed and she made a ‘V’ sign with her left hand and said while smiling: “I learned an interesting skill. Although I could not master it fully, but it is superior to all the skills I currently have.”
Julia pinched Maisa’s cheek, it made her yelp, but Julia didn’t seem to mind, so she asked: “Stop making suspense, tell me what skill you learned?”
“Are you that curious?” Despite speaking strangely when her cheek was pinched, Maisa pulled her hand away soon after and continued to speak when she saw Julia puff out her cheeks: “Hehe, I’ll say it, I’ll say it, no need to be mad.” She laughed.
“Then?” Julia looked questioningly.
Maisa said: “It’s called: Hell’s Anguish; I am able to create even spherical shaped attacks, it is also as hot as fire. The burn caused can be even higher than a fireball. Honestly, I’m not sure how effective it will be, but from my analysis, although amateur, I can say that it’s strong enough to break the defense of someone with the same level of genes as me.”
“It looks powerful,” Julia said with a touch of surprise in her voice. After a few seconds, she smiled as she saw Maisa’s look of pride and said: “I learned a skill too~”
“Oh? Which one, tell me…!” Maisa grabbed her arm.
“The skill name is: Curse of the Water Lady.” Julia proudly said: “Using water, I am able to create cursed water, when touching my enemy, the affected body part starts to freeze, and the greater my understanding, the more dangerous this ability becomes. From what I’ve seen, it’s even capable of freezing a dragon.”
“Wow! So amazing?!” Maisa was genuinely surprised by what Julia said.
Obviously, it wasn’t that simple, there were restrictions, it was also difficult to control, however, seeing how surprised and happy Maisa was, Julia didn’t reveal that now.
