Chapter 92: Politic
While having a snack Angus read at the list of the other nation that wants Jayna. There are a lot of nations on the list but he ignores the one that didn’t have any seven-grade combatant and focuses on the one that has this combatant.
He doubted that these kinds of countries could provide any significant help to the strong Heart kingdom. Especially since the current Heart kingdom does not lack any kind of resources.
He also ignores some human nations as he doubts by the age of twenty-one they have people as strong as Jayna. Although Jayna is not as strong as Angus, through her effort she is quite stronger as a grade one combatant.
Unless it is the second grade or above combatant, she will not easily lose in the frontal fight. As achieving grade two at the age of twenty-one, this couldn’t be easily achieved by the human race except for a rare prodigy like Angus.
For this kind of prodigy to appear, it could be said that to be rarer than having a seven-grade combatant. There are also ways to accelerate grades like becoming a champion of god. However, each of these people is bound to their group and not part of any nation.
Unless they want to fight and offend King Leon, these groups will not interfere in this matter. Besides, each of these champions of god is like a hidden card for the religious group. It will be stupid to make them part of a nation along with Jayna.
After sorting out the list, he still finds many different kinds of nations. Some of the notable nations are the demon race kingdom and mixed-race kingdom.
In Firuman, the Demon race is famous for its power and unique ability that is on par with the elf race. Unfortunately, this race is always fighting with each other and always in a state of civil war.
Still, each of these demon races is very strong. Just from their birth they already have grade one mana core. Moreover, they are also not infertile like the elf race which makes their population quite a lot.
In summary, this race is born as a fighter and more superior in terms of grade core. Besides the demon race, Angus also worries about the nation of the Beast tribe.
The Beast tribe is stronger in terms of physical strength and combat capability than the human race.
They are also famous for their strong endurance and vitality despite having a lower mana core. Some of the famous beast races even could kill high-grade monsters using only bare hands.
Unlike the demon race, the beast race is unified under the leadership of the war chiefs. Though they are very divided into many territories, they never have a major fight with each other.
From Angus’s knowledge, One of the famous tribes is called the tribe Blood Beast with the leader Warchief Might Nappolo. This tribe is military-oriented and different from others.
If compared to others they are more brutal and savage than others. They believe that personal strength is the only rule. Despite this culture and belief, they could be called the strongest tribe among others beast tribes.
Although this never proved since there is no infighting among other beast tribes. Still, their strength is recognized by others. The rumor said that one of their tribes could even fight two grades above them and emerge as the victor.
Fortunately, this tribe is very cautious towards strangers and only believes their kin. Because of this, they rarely accept foreign people and are never interested in a political marriage.
Besides these two superior races, Angus also found others such as orc, goblins, dwarf, and many others. The more he read the list, the more he found that the human race is weak compared to others.
Yet the human race is one of the most fertile races and has a massive population to occupy many territories in the Firuman.
While reading the description of a few nations he doesn’t know, Jayna comes in wearing her royalty dress. Unlike in the academy, where she only wears the academy’s uniform here she could wear anything she wants.
Seeing Jayna’s appearance that is emphasized by her brilliant light blue dress made Angus look at her for a few seconds before he went back to reading the list.
Noticing that Angus didn’t even give her a response, she begins to pout but she holds back since she still has his help. She joined Angus to have a snack and tea break. After a while, Angus released a sighing sound.
“How come there are a lot of nations that want you? I know Possession state is rare but looking at the list it could be said that almost half of the nation in Firuman want you.” commented Angus while drinking his tea.
“T-That’s because the Heart kingdom is the strongest of the human race. Because of this, we allied with many nations to not avoid having conflict with them.
“Otherwise, we will be at war with many nations until now. Although we aren’t afraid of war, it is still better to avoid needless fighting. Because of this, we allied with almost all the nations that are not hostile against us.” explained Jayna.
“Haa.. I guess being the strongest human race kingdom is also not easy. Alright, I will help you.” said Angus.
“Really??” replied Jayna in a cheerful tone.
“Yeah, Don’t be too happy yet. there are still some conditions,” said Angus.
“As long as it is within my capability I will do it.” replied Jayna
“Okay, First I don’t want you to reveal my strength to others. Second, I will only help you not become your teacher. Third, I will not teach you any kind of skill.” said Angus.
“Ehh… But, didn’t that mean you will not teach me anything.” said Jayna.
During this time, Darius intrudes on their conversation. “If I may speak Fourth Princess, young master Victory wished to help you but not teach you any of his skills.
“This means he may help you in another manner and may help you create a new skill that is perfectly fit with you. Isn’t that what you mean, Young Master Victory?” said the old butler.
“As expected of the royal butler, you get what I mean” replied Angus.
“Creating my skill?? Why don’t you just teach me the skill?” asked Jayna.
“Well, there are various kinds of reasons for that. But, the most important is you will be more proficient using your created skill over other skills. This means you could control it better than others.”
“Since your opponent may not be of the human race, you are needed to become stronger in various ways not only by depending on the strong skill you could barely utilize” explained Angus.
“Besides that, if you truly want to become stronger, you need to create a strong skill by yourself. It’s better to use a skill that is perfectly made for you than using an unknown strong skill that is not compatible with you.” added Angus.
“I see, but didn’t create skills is very difficult and needs years to achieve?” asked Jayna.
“That’s why I will help you. Did you know why you never touch me when we spar?” asked Angus back.
“Err.. It’s because of your superior skill?” replied Jayna.
“Nope, I didn’t use any skill when sparring against you. The answer is control over the body. Before you create your skill, you need two things one is experiencing, the other is knowledge and control over your own body.”
“Without these two things, you will not create a skill that is perfectly fit for you. Many people only rely on experience to create a skill without the control over their body and harm themself.”
“Likewise creating a skill without experience will also result in nothing. In your current state, the best way is by mastering your own body as experience could only be achieved through many battles.” explained Angus.
Hearing Angus’s explanation, “But, I already have good control over my body.” said Jayna.
“Really?” asked Angus as he took out a silver needle and thread.
“Then, can you do this?” Angus hovering the needle and thread before making the thread entering the small silver needle hole.
“T-That’s easy.” said Jayna unsurely.
Then, Angus gives the needle and thread to Jayna. As she tried to make it hover in the air, the needle kept moving along with the thread. After a few minutes, she still could not make the thread entering the needle.
While Jayna is trying hard, Angus is completely silent and drinking his tea provided by Darius who is standing beside him.
‘I guess it’s right to ask for Angus to help Jayna. Still, that kind of mana control is very delicate. I doubt even four-grade combatant could do the same feat as him.’ thought Darius.
‘Besides, based on what he said, it means he already has a vast experience of creating his skill at such a young age. This is not the class of prodigy but a monster. My eyes are not wrong, this kid is dangerous.’ thought Darius.
