Chapter 128: Power System
"Grandmaster, I, Liz, apologize for daring to spy on Grandmaster before. I truly regret my actions!"
After staring for a few moments, no answer came out of Rossweisse’s mouth in response to what Liz was currently trying to do behind her back. In the end, Liz was Elize’s pet who had remained very loyal in accompanying her master to this day.
One of Rossweisse’s hands began to wave in front of Liz. At first, Liz refused to walk closer to Rossweisse, but she didn’t dare to reject her Grandmaster’s wishes.
Likewise, Rossweisse didn’t care at all about the frightened expression Liz was currently showing towards her. Even if Liz thought Rossweisse was a terrible woman, she had no intention of rejecting every thought that was now running through Liz’s head about her.
For a woman like Rossweisse, she admitted that she was a stubborn and arrogant woman. But to Rossweisse, her stubborn and arrogant nature was the result of her hard work over thousands of years of living in this world.
Occasionally doing the things she wanted freely was something Rossweisse had longed for for a long time. Moreover, Rossweisse had now completely succeeded in freeing herself from the duties the Human Emperor had given her. For that reason, Rossweisse felt an extraordinary sense of happiness after successfully leaving her guard post.
It was something Rossweisse could only imagine in the past. After all, trying to escape from the task the Human Emperor had given her was no different from defying the Human Emperor’s orders.
But for now, Rossweisse had other duties to carry out in guiding Lucien and her three other female disciples. Until now, Rossweisse would do her best to train her four disciples until they had the strength to defeat enemies far stronger than themselves.
Likewise, Liz wanted to be trained directly by Rossweisse for the sake of Elize’s and Lucien’s future. As Elize’s mount, Rossweisse hoped that Liz could make a great contribution to the future of her beloved disciple.
"Um... Is there something you want to tell me, Grandmaster?"
"You’re a weak animal. Hey, Liz, do you remember your first meeting with your master?" Rossweisse’s gaze began to show her softer side. In fact, this was the first time Rossweisse had shown her attitude as an adult woman in front of Liz. For now, Rossweisse had her own thoughts about guiding Liz in her future training.
Liz was an eagle who loved being lazy. It was a miracle for a lazy eagle like Liz to possess strength equivalent to the Dragon King stage. Therefore, Rossweisse considered Liz to be one of the most talented individuals she had met to date.
If Liz hadn’t been lazy for decades, she would have had strength equal to or even greater than Elize’s. That was something Rossweisse had thought about in the past regarding Liz’s great potential.
Maybe if Liz had trained ever since she first met Elize, she would have been able to relieve every burden Elize had borne while guarding the borders of the Dragonia Kingdom. But it was all just a delusion from Rossweisse’s point of view.
In the end, the little girl was a weak eagle and had her own way of dealing with enemies who were much stronger than herself in the past. But Liz had no thoughts of training to become much stronger than anyone else. On the contrary, Liz only wanted to stay by Elize’s side and live a comfortable and peaceful life.
"I still remember. I will never forget the kindness my master showed me after taking me away from that terrible place. Likewise, Grandmaster. I truly respect you for deciding to become Miss Elize’s personal teacher."
Many incidents happened to Liz when she was young. Almost all of Liz’s life in the past was filled with violence and bloodshed. In the hometown where Liz lived, every eagle had the idea of eating one another.
Those who were weak became food for those who were strong. Because Liz was the weakest among the other young eagles, she received severe criticism from various opposing parties, forcing her to flee from the countless eagles chasing her.
At that moment, Liz had completely given up on living in this world and wanted to end her life immediately. Unfortunately, Elize’s appearance in her dragon form came as a great surprise to the eagles living there. For that reason, Liz completely managed to survive the pursuit of every eagle that tried to execute her.
"So do you know that your master has become very disappointed with the person you are now? You are weak. Even though you’re talented, you’re an eagle who likes to laze around and has no desire to become strong. If you continue being like that, you will only be abandoned by your master sooner or later."
Unfortunately, silence settled over Liz for some time before she finally showed a half-doubtful expression. The trauma that had long plagued Liz’s heart made her unable to hide her guilty expression. At the same time, because of the great talent within Liz’s body, she felt extremely hesitant about training to increase her strength.
A large part of Liz didn’t want to surpass her master’s power. It’s just that Liz’s strength had now reached the Dragon King stage. Even though she could only be considered a 4th-star beast, it was something Liz had managed to achieve after staying by Elize’s side for three decades.
The strength of beasts could be classified from 1st-star beasts to 9th-star beasts. The nine-star ranks represented the main forces of the beasts living within the Spirit Continent. But there were also a large number of demi-humans who were on a different level from beasts.
Most demi-humans considered their power system to be the Spirit Realm. It was a power system that focused solely on nurturing one’s soul. Therefore, even Tifa’s and Tina’s families followed the power system of the demi-humans, whom they considered to be the main force of the Spirit Continent.
The Human Race has a power system called the Warrior Realm. Meanwhile, dragons have a power system called the Dragon Realm. Although, in the end, every race throughout the world has its own path that it can achieve.
The Demon race, the Vampire race, and various other evil races shared the same power system as the Demon race. Both the Vampire race, the Ogre race, and various other evil races followed a caste system called the nine layers of the Demon Realm.
Young Demon, True Demon, High Demon, Demon Lord, Demon King, Demon Emperor, Demon Origin, Demon Saint, and Demon God. Those were the nine major realms of power on the Demon Continent. Most living beings on the Demon Continent who were born from the bloodline of an expert above the Demon Emperor level possessed a high caste in the eyes of all living beings living on the Demon Continent.
