Chapter 24. Madeleine's anger and Lingering Star Steps.

Now, she now needed to pass the [Absorption of Moonlight] and [Absorption of Starlight] To complete the [Absorption of Celestial Light] realm.

After Breaking through the [Absorption of Sunlight] realm she has actually unlocked three skills one called [Sunrise] the other called [Noon] and the last one called [Sunset]. She could also see that they were a part of a bigger skill.

[Sunrise] was a skill that could channel sun energy to do raising vertical strikes. They carried the scorching Sun energy and when it is done while sunrise time, each attack will send a scorching energy wave making them become range.

[Noon] On the other side, was a beam-natured long-range attack. Yasenia must charge Sun energy in her body with the use of [Sunrise] or [Sunset] and then she will be able to use it. To use it Yasenia must point her sword towards the sun, and her sword will explode in radiance. Then, pointing her sword towards her opponent a devastating energy attack will be fired from the sword. When it is done at noon, the sun will also fire a beam from the skies, making an inversed cross-like attack.

[Sunset] The contrary of [Sunrise] they are falling vertical strikes with more strength than [Sunrise] but slower. When done at Sunset each attack will explode on contact outwards making it dangerous even if blocked.

Yasenia, after absorbing the information, looked towards the side with a happy smile. Angel who saw all of this advancement show, was there with a dazed expression and with a hand over her rapidly palpitating heart. 'She is truly beautiful'

Then when she saw the happy smile her heart melted 'I can't resist her…'

She walked forward and jumped into Yasenia's embrace saying with her silvery voice "Yasenia, I like you very much~"

Yasenia was surprised at that confession. She answered with a smile, "En, I like you too baby."

Yasenia wrapped Angel with her tail and put her on her lap and kissed for a little while. Then she said, "Wait for me inside, I want to cultivate the moonlight until a little past midnight, then I will accompany you."

Angel fidgeted a little and asked shyly "Can I watch when you cultivate? You look really beautiful while cultivating…"

Yasenia smiled and gave her another peck "Sure, my baby can do whatever she wants." Angel's face reddened and a foolish yet happy smile appeared on her face.

Letting someone beside you while cultivating is a sign of trust. That is because when cultivating one must close your senses to the outside, and you become a lot more vulnerable. So, getting the go-ahead Angel was over the moon!

The next day after class, Yasenia told Madelaine about Carlos and after finishing her tale, while Madelaine didn't have a change of expression, she was actually quite mad. 'I've gotten this heavenly genius as my student and now someone is bullying her INSIDE the academy!?'

She said calmly "Come with me to the library. Let's see if this Carlos has the guts to say something to you with me by your side!"

When they arrived at the library, Carlos was speaking with a gentle smile with a very handsome male disciple with silver hair. They felt someone entering from the door and looked over. Everyone knew Madelaine so they weren't surprised.

However, after seeing the other beauty they had very different reactions. Carlos paled when he saw the other beauty that was accompanying Madelaine. And the handsome man opened his eyes in amazement.

Before any of them spoke Madelaine said "MY personal disciple is here to get some skills in the second level, do you have any problem, Carlos?"

Feeling something wrong the handsome man put distance between them and stayed to watch the show. Carlos was quick to answer "How can I have any problems? This library was made for the disciples to pick their skills. Is there something wrong?"

Madelaine sneered and said "I will report what happened here yesterday to the elders. Prepare yourself, it isn't your first time, so let's see if you can save yourself this time!"

Carlos continued gently "What are you going to report? My only interaction with that girl is me trying to help her nothing more. Did she misunderstand-" *Bang! * Before he finished, he was sent flying against the library wall and spat out a mouthful of blood!

Madeleine looked at him with an eerily calm gaze "I'm warning you, don't think that I don't dare kill you inside the Academy walls, the only reason that you are alive is that your past contributions to the Academy aren't small. Behave yourself as you did at the beginning."

She turned towards Yasenia and continued "Go up, I have to go do other things so I will let you here."

Then she gave something stealthily and whispered "if he or someone else dares bother you again, use this talisman and I will come fast if you are inside the academy grounds" Then she left.

Yasenia kept the talisman in her spatial ring and went upstairs without even giving a single glance towards them anymore.

The handsome male was about to follow and present himself but was cut by Yasenia "I'm in a rush, I couldn't do what I wanted yesterday, please don't bother me." Then without waiting for the answer she took the stairs and went to the second floor.

Yasenia reached the second-floor thinking 'Finally I'm here, I hope this doesn't become a normal occurrence because I may lose my temper in the future.'

She went directly to the place where 'High-level magical movement technique' was written. She started searching for something useful. 'The energy I will probably use the least when fighting is the star energy, let's find something with it.'

After searching for three hours she found three interesting ones. [Lingering star steps], [Polar star steps] and [Twin Stars Path]

The [Twin Stars Path] Is a technique that creates a star energy damaging zone between connecting two steps. There are three steps to follow. First, you mark one point, then you move to another point, and lastly, you charge to the previously marked point.

This will leave a nebula 5 meters wide and 3 meters tall of star energy damaging everything inside of it. While charging to the previously marked point you will have an impressive five-fold speed.

The [Polar star steps] Is a technique that leaves star-energy bombs on your steps. One simple but versatile effect. While leaving these bombs your speed becomes twofold, a lot less than the other, but you can run however you like and not only in a straight line, which is good.

Finally, the [Lingering Star Steps] are more of a speed type steps, while using this you will have a constant of threefold speed, and your steps will leave an after-image that continues in your previous direction when you wished for it.

When she was thinking about it she heard a lively voice from behind "My gorgeous Yasenia, I've come to accompany you!"

Yasenia turned and saw Evelyn coming. She smiled and said, "how was the alchemy class?"

Evelyn responded "I didn't understand a thing, I'm trying to see If I got anything apart from cultivation. Well, time will tell"

She then looked towards Yasenia's hands that had three scrolls and asked. "Are those three the ones left for you to choose?"

Yasenia went to a bench and sat, when Evelyn came close, she was caught by her tail and Yasenia made her sit on her lap. Then she put the three scrolls before the stiff person.

Yasenia lowered her head a little and pressing her womanly charms on Evelyn's back she whispered huskily "How about you help me choose one, beautiful?"

Evelyn had already short-circuited so she answered automatically "Yes" Yasenia laughed a little making her chest bounce against Evelyn's back.

Evelyn felt strange hotness rising in her navel so she hastily said, "Y-Yasenia although I l-like you a bit, d-don't you think that we are a little too close?"

Evelyn's mouth continued before her brain processed her words "Don't misunderstand! I-I'm totally in heaven okay? This softness on my back, your voice in my ears, and your sweet floral scent…"

Then processing what she just said she became even more flustered! "I-if this continues, I won't be able to concentrate!"

Yasenia turned Evelyn's head and looked at her violet eyes with her golden slit eyes and said slowly "Should I put you down?"

Evelyn shook her head! "Who will get down from such heavenly sensation!"

Yasenia smiled satisfied and said "Then..." She tilted her head cutely and continued "help me choose, please?"

Evelyn received a critical strike! "Help, help, of course, help! Let me see and I will help you choose the best!" Yasenia laughed and stopped teasing her.

She put Evelyn sideways like she does with Angel and used her tail as a chair back. She gave her one to read and opened the other two herself.

They sat there like that for a few minutes and then Evelyn spoke seriously "I think the one that suits you the most is either the [Twin Star Path] or the [Lingering Start Steps]. You have a lot of attack damage with your tail and the giant sword. The things you are lacking are an area of effect attack, mobility, a supporting skill, and a life-saving skill."

"[Twin star path] gives you an area of effect attack, another single-target attack, and a possible way to retreat from combat. The mobility it gives is much more limited than the rest but it is still good to do surprise attacks. If you manage to align the enemies, yourself, and the marked spot well enough, a fivefold speed charge can be lethal. The downsides are the lack of maneuverability and that these conditions in a high-speed battle can sometimes put you in a pinch, especially if the enemy discovers the mark and prepares against it."

"[Lingering Star Path] On the other side, it gives you a lot of mobility, a supporting skill, and if you used it wisely it can act as a life-saving skill. If you charge at an opponent and use this skill then change directions or slow down after creating the after image, you will be able to take by surprise your enemies almost always."

"in my opinion [Lingering Star Path] suits you best because you aren't in dire need of an area of effect skill, and it has fewer downsides. What do you think?"

Yasenia looked at the petite woman in her lap and couldn't resist giving her a rewarding kiss on her cheek. "I was struggling a little with losing the area of effect skill but with your analysis is easier to choose. Thanks a lot."

Then she put the petrified girl on the bench, stood up, and left slowly swishing her tail and hips invitingly to Evelyn. Evelyn woke up from her stupor she covered her face with her hands 'D-D-Did she just kissed me!? Ahhhh!!'

Seeing the leaving back through her opened fingers, she stood up hastily and said "W-Wait for me Yasenia!"

When they reached outside, it was already getting late so they went home. On her way back, Yasenia deviated to the formation branch and looked for Angel.

After finding her they went back home together, Yasenia made dinner, and after eating she went to cultivate, Angel stayed at her side while she was working on some things from the formation class.

It was one of Angel's three new hobbies. Working while having Yasenia cultivate beside her. The beautifully and softly glowing dragoness gave her a lot of peace of mind...
