Shopping, Luna's trouble?

'Not bad. These fruits came in handy,' Arlott chuckled as he fully absorbed the fruit's power at 100% efficiency.

He had already received a small boost this morning when he ravaged Kiera, and now, he got an increase of around 3k Genome Pulse from the fruit.

These fruits must have been hard to get and might even be for the experiments!

[Not a bad haul.]

[Arlott]

_Genome Tree: 1st realm - Burgeon.

—> Genome Pulse: 29,430.

—> Vitalis: [ 290,000 / 290,000 ]

_Genelines:

—> 

_Talents:

_Talent Tree: Mynx Lord.

'Should I eat the fruits and make my elemental nexuses? Or?'

[Nah. Leave the fruits for girls and kids. You can create your Nexuses with the Magi Kingdom talent tree's first skill, Call of Elemental Spirits. Using that will give you purer elemental energy conversion from mana and help you create your Nexuses faster.]

'Alright. What else can I use that skill for?'

[You have to call the elemental spirits beforehand using the skill and store them. For every 1000 Arcane force, you can store 1 elemental spirit and consume it for a boost in any area of magic related to the element.]

[By the way, you can only call elemental spirits of the affinity you possess.]

'Got it.'

Arlott opened his eyes and checked the rest of the golden vitality fruits.

[We have eight more golden vitality fruits. Luna and Iris don't need to eat more since they wouldn't get the full effects from them. Give them to eight kids later.]

'Yeah. The three of us can get strong in another way, so the kids can use the fruits. But the kids need some enjoyment in life first, not just training outright.'

[That's true. They won't wake up until tomorrow morning, so you can think about that tomorrow.]

Arlott nodded.

On the other hand, Iris finally opened her eyes. Her body released an aura of vitality before it conserved back into her.

"I became so powerful!" Iris turned to Arlott and grabbed his hands, eyes twinkling. She never thought she would get such a boost by simply eating a fruit.

Moreover, she knew that the massage had a massive effect on her body.

"You'll get even more powerful quickly," Arlott laughed. "This is just the start."

A second later, Luna also opened her eyes.

"Done! I absorbed all the energy. Can you check how strong I am, Arlott?" Luna asked excitedly.

"Alright."

Arlott checked Luna's Genome status and sent the information to Luna.

"Here you go. But as I said, no need to be surprised. This is just the start, haha."

[Luna]

_Genome Tree: —.

—> Genome Pulse: 7,430.

—> Vitalis: [ 74,000 / 74,000 ]

"But this is still so awesome!" Luna was thrilled. "How do you measure our power like this? We don't even have such means."

"Let's just say that I have some special powers," Arlott laughed. "Alright, now next is the Geno Art. Close your eyes and learn it."

Arlott put his hands on their heads. "We'll practice it two days later…together. Until then, just learn how to circulate Vitalis and what to do."

Luna and Iris closed their eyes in anticipation. Soon, information about the Geno Art flooded their mind. It was about where to circulate and concentrate their Vitalis throughout their body while practicing.

They had various methods of circulations and concentrations, but when they learned how they would practice it, their faces turned red, and their hearts raced.

"A-Are you serious, Arlott? We are really going to do that way?" Luna's breathing turned heavy, and her face flushed.

"Yep," Arlott lightly laughed and tapped his finger on Luna's cute nose.

Iris grinned from ear to ear, "Well then, we can't wait, right?"

"Exactly," Luna quickly nodded, glints of excitement in her eyes.

"But you'll have to wait for two more days and do general practice. Today is 11th June. We'll start our practice on 14th June at a special place."

"Ohh…But why the wait for two days?" Luna pouted.

"Yeah, is there a problem?" Iris curiously asked.

"I'll tell you that tomorrow. You've already heard and seen a lot today, so let's go get the shopping for kids, and then you two will use these elemental fruits and train."

"Where?" Luna asked. 

"At a special place that I'll take you after shopping. Come on," Arlott stood up. He looked at the crates filled with elemental fruits and waved his hand, putting all of them into his storage ring.

…

Afterward, the trio spent the next two hours shopping for kids. 

Those ten kids' heights were printed in Arlott's mind, so he knew what size they should buy.

He bought casuals, pajamas, and two other sets for each kid, so they bought a total of 40 pieces of clothing.

Afterward, they went to buy some food and food ingredients to cook tomorrow. 

Lastly, Arlott took the girls to a big showroom.

Mazire Cars!

"Let's splurge a bit and buy a flying car for faster transport," Arlott smiled. "We have enough to buy such an item."

"But we'll buy a big one since we'll also need enough space for kids."

"Eh? Then let's just buy an RV-type car," Iris said. 

As they had just entered the showroom, Iris noticed an RV and pointed at it. 

"That's a good one. Mazire RV 09-Z. It's big enough because it can expand into a 200-square-foot house, haha. Even on wheels, we can easily fit twenty people in it if we don't open the beds."

The RV was a dark silver one with a plain black colored design on it. It looked simple but impactful, matching the car.

14 meters in length and 3 meters in width, the RV had everything and could be customized by the customer,  like removing some functions or items and adding something else.

Arlott felt that the RV 09-Z was good enough for now and nailed that selection.

"Alright, let's get it. We won't be traveling in it, so let's remove some functions that will be useless to us."

Iris nodded.

"Yeah, the tent extender will be useless in that case."

"What about the makeshift kitchen? Keep or remove?" Luna asked.

"Nah, no need for the kitchen."

The trio walked towards the car while talking. A staff noticed the trio and quickly went to attend to them.

…

"Phew, we bought a lot today," Luna sat inside the car.

Iris turned on the car while Arlott said with a grin, "Our customized RV will be ready to take flight tomorrow morning. Now, let's go to the special place I was talking about."

"Where?" Iris asked as she revved the engine and turned to Arlott.

"Our house," Arlott unhurriedly said, "More specifically, a secret house below our house."

"Eh? We have such a secret house?"

"Yep," Arlott chuckled. "It's been there for many years."

'Lave, it's not fully ready, right?'

[I bought related items, finished designation, and can assemble our castle whenever you want, though it's better to wait until you become more powerful.]

'Yeah, you can create it once I've reached my initial goals in the three paths.'

[Good.]

Turning to Luna, he asked, "I'll drop you home with some elemental fruits. You can train and sleep. After that, we'll pick you up tomorrow, or…"

"You can take your mom's permission and spend the night at the secret underground house with Iris."

Luna furrowed her brows while her eyes became a bit worried, "Arlott….there's a bit of problem at home, but Mom is not telling me about it."

"Is it from your dad's family? They are one of the hundred ancient families I know," Arlott faintly smiled. 

Iris focused on driving but was also curious to know Luna's feelings regarding the whole thing. Both of them had seen Arlott's enemies in the memories, after all.

"Mhmm," Luna nodded, but her next words were resolved as she said, "I-I don't mind if you do anything to my dad's family or him because he is one of the top 200 powerhouses and doesn't stay at home much. But whenever he comes, there's a quarrel going on."

"And Mom never tells me about it," Luna bit her lips. "Can you help me with it? I don't want to continue to ignore that matter."

"Hmmm," Arlott thought for a moment before he smiled and patted her head. "Alright, let's solve it right now."

"Sis, turn the wheel to Luna's place first."

"Roger~" Iris grinned.
