Despite being a talented fighter, the upbeat young man, Diluc, often fails to showcase just how good he is when it comes to combat due to the fact that he can just barely fight on equal terms with the nobles in the city he lives in, nobles who are granted with all the cultivation resources they need and want ever since they are born, which creates a really large gap between them and the common folks.
Through one way or another though, mostly hard work and more hard work, the upbeat young man manages to possess strength equal to those of the weaker nobles even without the resources they have, showing just how much better he can be should he be placed on the same situation as most of them.
But now, not only did he managed to gain resources far overshadowing those of the noble people he knows of, but he also manages to gain blessings from the two draconic ladies he is taking care of, and he's definitely going to receive more draconic blessings as he develop the Draconic Realm more and more.
That is the reason why he looks forward to this clash between him and the two ladies flying with their draconic bodies in the sky, to test not only how much did the two of them improves during this short period of time, but also to test just how much improvements he received from the blessings he got from the young metal dragoness, Argenta.
Not forfeiting his position, he crouches down a bit as his head remains directed towards the skies, his eyes focused on the two massive figures rapidly descending towards the ground, his face revealing a battle hungry smile that seems way too eager to exchange with the two figures.
'Let's see… how about I do this…' with an idea popping into his mind, the upbeat young man wills the wind elemental mana around him to do according to his biddings, the swirling wind around him coalescing on his arms as he continues to focus on something, something he is just visualizing until the moment it completely manifested.
Opening his eyes once again, the upbeat young man saw the greenish scales surrounding his entire arms, looking slightly peculiar yet doesn't feel so odd to him, as if it is naturally a part of him and not just created from the elemental mana he gathered from the air.
Seemingly innately knowing what he could do with the scales that manifested on his arms, the upbeat young man starts aiming his first towards the two figures already at a considerable distance near him, prompting him to take action as he drives his fist forward, appearing to do nothing as his reach is still too far to touch the two draconic figures still in the air.
It appears quite awkward just for a few seconds though as after the silent pause, the air around the upbeat young man seems to twist and contort into all sorts of peculiar shapes, before a void of air gathers in front of him and exploded forth, bringing in quite the strong and focused wind rushing towards one of the draconic figures.
Seeing this attack, the young metal dragoness' eyes couldn't help but glow in excitement as she thinks that this is an attack worthy of being received by her, causing her to move faster as she moves in front of her elder sister, the wood dragoness that seems to be way too calm in this situation.
Facing the brunt of the attack, Argenta felt surprised as she braves the attack from her liege, the wind appearing to be not too dangerous for her in the distance packing quite the punch when it reaches her, dealing no substantial damage to her thick metallic hide yet pushing her by a considerable distance from her previous place.
"That is really powerful" seeing how far the metal dragoness got knocked back, the upbeat young man mutters to himself as he sent in another punch, his entire being feeling a considerable amount of strength leaving from his body every time he performs such attack.
"As expected of the liege" watching what happens to this younger draconic sister of hers, Yggdrasil said as she supports Argenta from the back, her words being acknowledged by the metal dragoness as well as she looks back at her before nodding her head, displaying how much of a taciturn person she is.
"Let's move on different directions, Big sister Yggdrasil…" seemingly feeling quite competitive after receiving such an attack from her liege, Argenta speaks with her cold yet elegant sounding voice as she locks her gaze towards the upbeat young man, her current expressions especially the fiery glow in her usually emotionless eyes causing the neon green haired mature beauty to giggle in fascination.
"Looks like our liege wake up something within you huh~?" despite teasing the younger dragoness, Yggdrasil complies with her as she knows that metal dragons are innately better in direct confrontations than her lineage, the wood dragons, her body already moving away from her as she complies with the plan, causing the metal dragoness to nod towards her.
"Focus on attacking our liege, I'll be the one that distract him~~" Yggdrasil said with a smile on her face as her draconic body starts plummeting down, treading a direct line towards the upbeat young man as she focuses all of her mana to healing herself, wondering if such a strategy will work against her beloved liege.
"They're getting better" seeing how the two dragonesses are finally starting to use diversion tactics against him without even being taught of such, the upbeat young man couldn't help but smile and appreciate how fast they are growing in battle, proving to him the words that the Dragon Herding System always reminds him, that anyone, even dragons, needs the tempering of battle in order to grow into true geniuses and legendary figures.
Sending in his fist again, his attack barely did anything to stop the dashing Yggdrasil now, her body moving more because of the gravity than anything else causing the surge of wind landing through her scales to do nothing but slow her down a bit before she starts gaining momentum again, her entire figure as if an unstoppable force plummeting from the skies through the ground where the upbeat young man is.
Meanwhile, due to the fact that their liege is currently distracted by her elder sister, the metal dragoness finds a way to move just a step behind Yggdrasil, making sure that she is never the priority as she gets closer and closer, knowing that once she enters a certain distance, it will be too late for the upbeat young man to respond and the victory will be theirs.
At the same time, while he is struggling to keep this two dragonesses at bay, the upbeat young man's face couldn't help but reveal a candid smile as he continues to send in wind elemental attacks towards them, his entire being, his body and mind seemingly getting the hang of the attack more and more as he continues performing it, the drastic reduction of his mana reserves previously now reducing the more he attacks, making him wonder since when did he starts getting the hang of such techniques so fast.
'Doesn't matter right now, I need to teach these two girls a lesson, especially Ygg' shoving such wonder to the back of his head though, the upbeat young man, Diluc, pays more attention towards the fight than anything else, prepared to beat some lessons into these two girls' heads especially since they are getting far too cheeky these days, especially Yggdrasil, who seems to take every opportunity to tease him every time.
Taking a deep breath as he focuses more, the upbeat young man continues to spam the wind elemental attack against the two, making the two dragonesses wonder whether their liege got so scared that he couldn't do anything now, such thoughts perishing immediately especially since they know him too well due to the connection established from the blessings they gave him.
That is why it makes them quite cautious, their approach slowing down as they start to wonder just what is it that the upbeat young man, their liege and most respected person, is planning, their wariness causing their aggressiveness in the attacks to reduce by a considerable degree, but not so much that the two of them just wants to pull back and miss this good opportunity to attack.
As they got closer though, they finally feel that something is amiss, the serious expression from the upbeat young man now changing into a smile they know all too well just from the short period of time they are with this liege of theirs, the smile of someone who has everything in the palm of his hands.
Willing the wind elemental mana towards his lower body, the upbeat young man leaps, the wind guiding him and boosting his vertical movements as he shoots through and reaches the wood dragoness in no time, the scales on his arms changing from the glowing green to a mixture of a wooden texture and a metallic sheen, its appearance despite his small stature compared to the two making them realize that they made one mistake, and they messed up big time because of it.
