Chapter 185 - Appointment approved

The morning was unusually busy. But I managed to get back before breakfast. Although it was almost 9 in the morning, Fiona had just begun making breakfast. She said that she took a leave for the day.

Mom and Fiona start making breakfast. And after breakfast, they will start. I have already handed over the ingredients. Mom is happy to see familiar ingredients.

She said that Primis Societas has a lot of new ingredients so it's a little hard for her to make good stuff. She still hasn't gotten used to that place.

"Master, how was the job?" (Hazel)

"It wasn't anything special. The drakes were just like dinosaurs. They resemble Deinonychus greatly. It's just that they have mana."

Hazel thinks for a moment. She must have searched for what a Deinonychus looked like. After getting a clear answer, she smiles.

"Those are just overgrown lizards. So, did you kill any of those?" (Hazel)

"No. I just drove them away. I'd rather not kill them. Because they were in their mating season and some seemed pregnant. I didn't see any eggs but I think they were gonna lay them soon."

"So kind, master." (Hazel)

Aura snickers. Hazel is chuckling. Why are they making fun of me?

"You know that I don't like unnecessary troubles."

"That is precisely why they are laughing. Most people kill drakes immediately even if they have to risk their lives because a drake carcass sells for a lot of money.

Even more if you can get their eggs. But you let a treasure trove get away from you because you didn't want unnecessary trouble. That's so like you." (Fay)

Fay explained why Aura and Hazel were laughing. It might've been a little foolish but I have no need for money right now. I hardly ever spend the money I currently have.

"Let's get Aldo. I think they are up."

I was about to go and get Aldo but Aura stopped me.

"They are already here. Aldo said that he wanted to read books so he is with Eden in her room. Alyssa is playing with Aera." (Aura)

Aldo is already using the amulet I gave him. He must have really wanted to read those books. Well, having a thirst for knowledge is good but I need to monitor him. Because knowledge can bring destruction as well.

And the breakfast was ready. It was good as always. I won't elaborate much on the breakfast part. Soon, mom started teaching Fiona about the ingredients I brought.

The recipes aren't too shabby and I think Fiona has already figured out substitutes for those ingredients.

It's good and all but now my busy morning is over. What should I do? Hazel and Aura have left for the guild.

"You are already an S rank adventurer. As your wife, I need to catch up as well." (Aura)

"I can not accompany master if I am not closer to master. So I will focus on increasing my rank as well." (Hazel)

They said that and left. I don't know what I should do. They are doing jobs frequently and improving themselves. I can't do anything here to improve myself.

Let's ask Samantha. What is she doing? She hasn't shown herself today.

(Samantha, what are you doing?)

(I am currently taking care of a mess my brother made. Don't worry, I will be back soon.) (Samantha)

So she is cleaning after her brother. Then I won't bother her. Then all I can do is train. But before that, I ask Fay.

"Fay, can you set up a meeting with the Aves house? I want to talk to them about the Martin situation."

"You don't have to. But if you want, I will try." (Fay)

She then leaves saying she is going to the castle. Now then, how should I train?

Let's improve my .

"Mom, I am going to train. If you need anything just contact me."

"Okay." (Mom)

She gave her green signal. I better go to my singularity.

But the location I arrive at is different. Well, Amaryllis is also in my singularity. But I can't train on her. So I came at a different location. Singularity is infinite. There's no shortage of space here.

I have death, chaos and destruction. Three different authorities with different types of . I mostly use death but chaos manifested itself within me and caused a lot of troubles.

So, I should start with death. I focus. It's more like meditation.

Death to me is just a stage. It's not the end. A human death is like the soul leaving its body. Death itself isn't so easy. For true death, you need to kill the soul so it ceases to exist.

It has to be deceased. Only then it will be true death. My is leaking out of me. It's a storm. Death has filled the area. If I was to do this where living things were, they would have died.

The amount of my has increased again. Isn't this more than last time? I have already stopped trying to measure it. I empty my entire and absorb it. Then empty it again and absorb it again.

Repetition is the best way to control this much . I have to familiarize myself with this. After doing it for the tenth time, I stop. Because I am exhausted.

Emptying my and absorbing the is tiring. I should take a break. I go back to Fiona's house.

I see Fay sitting on the sofa. I take a seat as well. I am slightly out of breath.

"You were training, weren't you?" (Fay)

"You could tell?"

"Yeah. You took back your from us. And you have more control over it now. So your training is working, I'd say." (Fay)

So I took back the sealed in them. Isn't the seal becoming loose then?

"How was it?"

"Duchess Aves has agreed to meeting with you. And she is willing to meet with you as soon as you can." (Fay)

She agreed? I thought she would turn down my request. It's currently lunchtime so I better go in the afternoon.

"I thought she would turn me down."

"She didn't. As soon as I went to her, she accepted meeting with you. She said that she is eager to meet with you." (Fay)

Whatever could she be thinking? I'll have to find out after meeting with her.
