Chapter 299: Main Character Aura Intensifies
Edgar and Lucan’s eyes widened in mild surprise at Orion’s announcement. Lucan tilted his head curiously, a playful smile lingering on his lips. "Oh? The club members are coming here? What exactly do they plan on doing?"
Orion smiled softly, his dual-colored eyes calmly meeting Lucan’s curious gaze. "They’ll train here with us for a few days. It’s about time we started exploring the interesting and unknown places we initially formed the group for."
Hearing Orion’s words, Edgar’s expression turned slightly serious, concern faintly flickering in his calm eyes. He looked carefully at Orion and spoke slowly, "But are you sure about this, Young Master? You still haven’t fully recovered yet. Isn’t it too soon to go out for exploration?"
Orion lightly shook his head, his expression relaxed but confident. He knew Edgar’s worry came from genuine care, yet Orion felt the immense improvements he’d made since waking up and trusted his abilities now more than ever after healing his meridians.
With a gentle smile, he suggested warmly, "Why don’t you come and train with me for a bit, Uncle Edgar? By the time we finish warming up, the others should arrive as well."
Edgar hesitated briefly before exchanging a quiet, knowing glance with Lucan. Both men seemed to silently agree, curiosity and anticipation visible in their eyes.
Edgar finally nodded, speaking calmly, "Alright, Young Master. Let’s see how much you’ve recovered."
Lucan grinned cheerfully, his playful demeanor replaced by visible excitement at the prospect of beating up Orion in the guise of training.
Without another word, the trio made their way toward the spacious training area located behind the mansion, a neatly paved open courtyard surrounded by lush greenery and shaded by tall, sturdy trees.
Arriving there, Edgar and Lucan stepped confidently onto the smooth stone courtyard, each drawing their swords in fluid, practiced motions.
They settled into precise stances, Edgar exuding quiet, powerful confidence, while Lucan adopted a relaxed yet agile pose.
Orion paused momentarily, his gaze thoughtful, before smoothly drawing two elegant swords, the Realm Guardian Sword in his right hand, its obsidian edge gleaming mysteriously, and the Windsteel Blade in his left.
