Chapter 34 - Darkness
Chapter 34 – Darkness
A little less than a month has passed since Robin started his seclusion, and although the time he needs now to crack a major law and write its cultivation technique is less than before, the difficulty of the process was still there…he is just getting used to it.
Today at last he finished the technique, when he came out of his room he found Theo – who had broken through to the eighth level now – kneeling in front of the door with his eyes closed and his breath faint.. He was asleep.
"How long have you been kneeling here?" Robin was surprised
Theo opened his eyes, finding Robin in front of him, lowering his head even more
"He's been there for about four days" Zara explained
"Stand up you idiot, I don't want you to kneel down to show your gratitude, you must work hard for me!" He gently smacked Theo's forehead, "Zara, where's your brother?"
"He is in seclusion to quickly raise his level as you commanded, Big Brother."
"Hm, call him then, I have something for him," nodded Robin, then went to sit on his sofa, holding a large book and two small ones.
It didn't take a few seconds before Peon entered the room and bowed slightly in front of Robin, before the latter gestured to him to sit next to him, then went back to look at Theo.
"Theo, I'm sure you've gained a lot from your solitude…why don't you show us something?" Robin said with a smile
Theo nodded in affirmation, and before he could fully raise his head again… he was gone.
"what?!" Peon stood in astonishment and started sniffing around him, "He's gone…not only in appearance, everything about him is gone!"
"Mn, well done." Robin nodded, this was part of the technique he wrote for him and of course, he knows it well, it is called *perfect invisibility* where darkness swallows up everything around the body so no sound, light, or smell leaks out, just a person Much stronger than Theo would have the feeling of having someone else around, "What else have you mastered?"
Although Theo is still in stealth mode, Robin's eyes followed him step by step until he reaches the table, which astonishes Theo greatly and made Robin grow even more in his eyes.
After he arrived, he picked up a cup and raised it, which caught Zara and Peon's eyes and turned to look at him, but then the cup also disappeared.
Robin nodded when he saw this, "*Perfect Swallow* that's nice, how about Shadow Mobility?"
Theo canceled his invisibility and appeared in front of everyone, but suddenly it seemed as if he had been pulled towards the shadow of the table and disappeared again, this was different from the perfect invisibility he used before,
in perfect invisibility, he uses the law of darkness to create a barrier around his body anywhere and anytime, as for shadow teleportation it can only be used in places rich with shadows, but it is much easier to move this way and make surprise attacks.
"Dark Scope?" Robin asked
Theo appeared again but soon disappeared.. this time all of their surroundings disappeared with him into pitch-black darkness, one could not see his nose inside.
Robin continued to ask him about a few more features before he finally applauded, "Excellent! Seeing these techniques in action is much better than writing them. The Perfect Law of Darkness is really cool.. I think I should practice some of them too."
"Hold." Robin tossed a small booklet at Theo. "This is an energy-cultivation technique that takes Darkness Path as its main focus. It will be much better for you than what you are using right now."
Theo accepted it calmly and bowed again, though the idea of a better energy-cultivation technique made him agitated inside, he actually got used to things like that from his master,
what could be more surprising than the major law of darkness which all the sages of history failed to come up with?
"Peon, it's your turn now.. in this book you will find the perfect major wind law cultivation technique, and the booklet has an energy cultivation technique based on wind path, hope you make good use of them." Robin handed the two books to Peon
peon surely knew the value of what was in his hand. Having seen Caesar's exaggerated power and the immediate danger of death in every move from Theo, he knew that anything that comes out of this boy who seemed younger than him would be considered a worldly treasure.
"' My lord..are you not afraid that I or Theo will leak your heritage?" peon gathered his courage and asked what was on his mind, Theo also looked in Robin's direction, he's also been wondering repeatedly about this over the past months as he contemplates the wonders of his law- cultivation technique
"You are smarter than this, that was the reason I choose you from the beginning. If something like this happened, I would be able to kill the traitor one way or another. no, whoever receives my work will be the one who kills you to try to get closer to me!
But let's leave this aside and focus on the general viewpoint, and what if one of the techniques is leaked? Do you think I will strengthen you guys to satisfy my ego? This is just the beginning… and My dream is to spread my heritage to the whole world, but at the right time.
I dream that one day the three of you will be able to reach beyond the sage's limit and build your own forces to dominate the whole world, only then I can distribute these techniques and strengthen the rest of the world… when you stand on Top it!
Tell me, Peon.. who is going to be harmed by leaking my techniques now?"
Peon stood stunned by what he heard, 'To take over the world? No one should have the guts to say those words..not even great emperors, but.. The three of us are now stronger than the emperors when they were our age! and after forming our pillars from these laws we will be much stronger than them with every step we take, if we work under the banner of the same master, will it be difficult to achieve this dream?'
When he saw Peon's absence in his thoughts, Theo moved beside him and slapped him in the back of the head, when he regained consciousness and bowed, "It was just a question, my lord. Please don't get angry, this Peon will only work to gain your satisfaction."
"En, I know you will. Go start your training, don't show me your face before you master the law and breakthrough to the eighth level at least."
"understood!" Peon took the two books and bowed again before heading towards his room.
