Chapter 412 - Laws!

"Alright, everything is set to go!"

Considering the fact that I had three 'items' to train in and only so little time to do so, it would be much more efficient to mix them up in one big repeated training routine.

As such, after contemplating it for a minute or so, I transmitted to Long what I had in mind for a suitable training ground which immediately came to exist a second later!

Physical targets in the air and the ground, both moving and static, as for the wind flow adjustment, Long lazily gave me a remote control for that since he found it too troublesome to change that every few minutes as I asked him to, he even made it so the targets would regenerate spontaneously for the sake of his peace of mind…

Such training ground made it possible for me to train the flying part as well as taking-off and landing all while exchanging attack methods from 'Elemental Control' attacks in flight to purely bare-handed physical attacks on the ground. Basically, the triple target of getting used to flight, new stats, and elemental control could be done simultaneously.

In fact, although the targets weren't supposed to retaliate, this whole training could also improve my reaction when it came to venue-changing battles!

Of course, the number of flying targets that I fought against was only one, the corrupted Sky Dragon, which was dealt with using only a high jump, but considering how the demons grew stronger every domain, such occurrence might become a normal thing…

When it came to fighting insidious demons that have had more time in the other domains while I was away, I simply had to be prepared for every possible scenario.

'Anyway, let's get the training done with so that I can have my last break in a while…'

As priceless as time within the system space was when it came to training, I still planned for the last hour to be one of luxury and relaxation, after all, not only it would be impossible to have such a break in the domain, but I also couldn't guarantee if I would have time to rest when I'm practically diving into an unknown domain…

Although the Dragon Ancestor did ensure that I wouldn't be thrown into the Dark Domain, who knew what state the other domain would be in at this time.

With that in mind, I took off the ground as I maintained flight and slightly heightened the wind flow before heading towards the closest target to me and launching a small fire dragon in its direction, only to…

'Huh?'

As the small dragonoid made an impact with the target, I confirmed the feeling that I just had, something wasn't right!

'This isn't the damage I…'

I only felt lost for a split-second before I finally came to a realization…

"Wait! This is what you meant by that…?"

[I did say you would find out quickly, you were the one who seemed in a hurry to know everything…]

Just now, though I used the same amount of elements, and this was basically only my third time using elemental control, both the time used to create the elemental manifestation and the damage produced for its attack were completely different!

A decrease of 9 more seconds at once was a drastic difference when it came to a completely new technique like that, but even if it was caused by a spur of excitement or something, the increase in damage couldn't be explained as simply as that…

'This is not a coincidence.'

After trying the exact same move with the exact same steps and getting the same results coupled with Long's lazy answer, there was only one explanation.

'It's definitely the new title effect!'

The only thing that changed compared to the first two times I used the technique was that I increased my stats, but all my stats including physical, mental, and even elemental would never have such an effect, so the only plausible explanation was that it was caused by something that resulted from the stats increment instead.

'But…'

"It isn't just that, right?"

[Do you really need to ask that? Elements are just one of the 'Laws' after all, and here I thought you were a bit smarter than most people.]

'As expected…'

Ignoring the rest of what Long said, I immediately let out another form of energy that came out from my heart while still standing in the air with my wings flapping...

`~~`~~`~~`

After a series of tests in the middle of a full course training, I was able to come to a final conclusion, the 'Limitless I' title was definitely worthy of being the new stat limit breaking title!

At first, I got a slight thought that the 'Laws' may have meant the use of 'Elemental Control' on elements, which made a lot of sense considering the amplifications that were revealed when I used it, but that thought was dismissed shortly after...

Its effects were far from being limited to a boost to 'Elemental Control', it was merely one of many.

The boost actually encompassed any use of elements entirely, whether it was 'Body of Elements', 'Elemental Armament', the range of the 'Elemental Domain' and even the use of pure elemental attacks, but even then that was merely a single branch!

Every single weapon energy was also boosted by the same amount!

Though Long seemed to be reluctant to explain everything, I believed that my current theory was at least half correct, 'Laws' had to at least be an encompassing definition of all the 'powers' in the Lost Realm.

Just thinking about it simply with that in mind ends up with several confirmative thoughts, after all, there were many types of elements and weapon energies that filled the atmosphere, yet it all seemed to act in harmony, didn't that only prove that there is something governing them?

Naturally, the definition of 'Laws' was obviously not that simple, the improvement received from the 15% boost of the title was actually at least double that amount when it came to actual use!

Since there had been hardly any time that the system's parameters proved to be wrong, this only meant that the use of 'Laws' was something far more deeper than my current application...
