?458 Minor Treasure—Lunchbox
Varahan Mansion!
The Boar King returned to the estate alongside Yarsha Zahara and their six children. His expression remained nonchalant until Yarsha Zahara unleashed Subtle Terrain Domination—that she had absorbed from Wittral before they split off—to turn the lava-covered estate into normal ground.
She then erected the same mansion from before and gasped upon expending all the effects of Subtle Terrain Domination. The marksmanship of the mansion wasn’t up to par, but for the time being, it’ll work, as that was her intention.
She could rebuild the mansion in the future once again by using the funds that she had gathered. However, that was the least of her worries as she hurriedly supported the figure of the Boar King that collapsed.
“You’ve pushed yourself too much.” She said in a fluster, “This body isn’t even meant for fighting. Why did you chase after Loot when you had no intention to fight him?”
“I kept pressure on him until the Brimgan Emperor arrived.” The Boar King spoke after recovering a bit, “You won’t have to worry much about Loot for the time being. Just wait patiently for my main body to return.”
“I’m afraid it’ll be difficult.” Yarsha Zahara sighed, “You killed most of the people in Fentan City. The Brimgan Empire will do everything in its power to kill us next. We’ll be relentlessly chased by them until our deaths.”
‘Yeah, even though Brandal Brimgan acted nonchalant when facing me, he’s the staunchest advocate of Free Human supremacy. I’m pretty sure he’s making plans to hunt me.’ The Boar King thought and seeped Prana into the rings worn by his children, causing the rings to seep into the bone.
“It’s not much, but they’ll remain hidden now. To the senses of everyone else, our kids will continue to appear as Free Humans. Even Brandal Brimgan wouldn’t be able to sense the items responsible for that now.” The Boar King said and approached the hole he had walked out from before, “I can’t stop something since I’m already midway with it.”
“You’ll have to come up with something to stay alive until the end.” Saying so, he took on his Empyrean Boar King form and dug into the earth, burying himself deep under.
“In the end, It’s on me, huh?” Yarsha Zahara muttered as she noticed a group of people converging upon the entrance of Varahan Mansion. They were people in Fentan City with Silver Grade strength and above who had survived the Boar King’s presence.
Now, they had grouped to avenge the death of their loved ones. Since Yarsha Zahara was the Boar King’s wife, she must pay the price for his actions.
Blinded by rage, they wouldn’t stop until she and her kids were killed. ‘It would have been better to flee. But that’s not an option.’
“Kill them!”
“Kill the Boar King’s family!”
“Kill them all!”
The people raised slogans as they marched with bloody bodies, covered with the blood of their loved ones who sprayed blood under the Boar King’s presence. It was an evident statement of their hatred as they marched into the Varahan Mansion, their eyes reddening in response upon seeing Yarsha Zahara with her kids.
“Kill her!”
“Slaughter the brats!”
“Disgusting bastards deserve to die!”
“For my family, die!”
Astral Chart—Rocky Intimidation!
Yarsha Zahara clapped once, unleashing the Boar King’s ability that she had stored. To protect her, the Boar King had left a portion of his strength in her. And he helped conceal this using a Minor Treasure.
Minor Treasure—Lunchbox!
The Minor Treasure of Lunchbox was capable of storing a part of the user’s strength. It acted as a reservoir to store the effects of a Nature, able to use it as a trump card when necessary.
Yarsha Zahara stored the effects of her Primary Nature that absorbed the Boar King’s activation of Rocky Intimidation—
through his Astral Chart. It was done to prevent her body from being strained by constantly having to handle the voracious amount of Prana contained in the ability.
By storing it in the Minor Treasure of Lunchbox, Yarsha Zahara was able to live a normal life.
Previously, when Virala’s artillery strike struck the Varahan Mansion, Yarsha Zahara calculated that Wittral would be able to handle it, which was why she refrained from wasting her stored power.
Unfortunately for her, the body of the Boar King buried under Varahan Mansion wasn’t aware of the entire picture, ignorant of the fact that she had the Minor Treasure of Lunchbox.
The Boar King had created this body the day they arrived at the Brimgan Empire and purchased Varahan Mansion. Only after that body buried itself for a plan did he equip her with the Minor Treasure of Lunchbox.
Besides, the difference in influence caused the buried Boar King to behave as an entirely different individual, someone who only moved to execute his mission and give his life in the process.
As a result, even when the Boar King arrived at the Varahan Mansion from time to time, he paid attention to remain at a distance of more than 180 metres from the buried body. This was done to avoid a mental clash.
It was why the buried body went overboard while assuming the death of his family and created such a mess. And now, Yarsha Zahara had to deal with it because the buried body of the Boar King no longer had the strength to fight and kill someone.
A pillar of rock appeared in the place and unleashed the Boar King’s presence to a voracious extent, intimidating the Prana of the group of people that approached her.
The Rockatrice’s ability was very strong from a defensive aspect. When unleashed using the Boar King’s Prana, even those with Silver Grade strength struggled to approach the rocky pillar without a significant portion of their strength getting suppressed.
Yarsha Zahara expended all the strength stored in the Minor Treasure of Lunchbox and erected a wall of rock around Varahan Mansion, one that reached a height of twenty metres. She completely barricaded the place from outside, watching the group of raging people collapse to the ground with trembling bodies.
“You…bitch!” A man with Silver Grade strength shouted in rage and condensed a needle-shaped Spirit Weapon possessing poisonous properties. He hurled it toward Yarsha Zahara, controlling it at speeds four times the speed possible through psychokinesis for other cultivators at the Body Stage.
It was the function of his Human Avatar. As the Spirit Weapon approached her rapidly, Yarsha Zahara unleashed fluctuations of Prana to calculate its flight path and activated her Human Avatar, materialising a Spirit Weapon in the form of a sheet.
The needle slammed into the sheet and failed to dent it. Forget denting it, the needle failed to even make a scratch. A crisp ringing sound was produced as the sheet tanked the attack easily, for it was a Spirit Weapon refined using Sumatra Gold.
Primary Nature—Incident Nature Reflection!
Yarsha Zahara activated her Primary Nature and gained control over the Spirit Weapon. But instead of using it, she caused it to vanish, having stored it in her Minor Treasure of Lunchbox. This way, to the eyes of the man, it seemed like his Spirit Weapon vanished mysteriously.
“H-How is that possible?” The man coughed out blood, feeling heartache as he overexerted himself to unleash that attack despite being suppressed by the effects of Rocky Intimidation.
In a similar fashion, Yarsha absorbed the attacks of others and grinned in response, thinking, ‘Indeed, a battle to the death is the best source of inspiration.’
Through that short interaction, Yarsha Zahara managed to figure out a way to build a second piece of Sumatra Gold into her Human Avatar, ‘I’ll hold out for as long as possible.’
“And in the worst-case scenario…” She inched her finger to her ear and pinched the earlobe, “I’ll use that.”
