Chapter 66: Super Reflexes but...

Royal Castle, Nightingale.

In the training arena, Lith was practicing Archery right now. Alongside him was Lilith, his mother, who was lecturing him on things he needed to do and improve upon while training with the bow and arrows.

Few hours ago, Lith and Lilith were in the bathtub and relaxing. Lith had the thought to do many naughty things with Lilith after bath but being in the warm and comfortable embrace of his mother, he gave up. He didn't want to ruin the lively atmosphere and wanted to start the day with this nice feeling. Him showing his mother that he was a man was only a joke he said before and Lilith definitely wouldn't mind even if he didn't show her if he was a man or not. No matter what, Lith would always be a baby to Lilith.

Lith had already mastered three weapons. The Sword, the Spear and the gauntlets. He had practiced two short range and one long range weapons and was now practicing with his second long range one, the bow.

"Mom, is it really okay to practice a new weapon just a few months away from the entrance test? Not to mention I have other things to improve upon right now." Lith asked, a bit concerned.

It took him 4 years to master the sword. 3 years each to master the Spear and the gauntlets. On top of that, he needed to keep on practicing those three weapons everyday because Lith was growing and he needed to adjust his body according to the movement techniques of the weapons. He really had a packed training schedule and now he his mother had asked him to take up a new weapon. Was this really needed? He asked to himself.

"It is okay. You do trust mama right? So just believe in her and follow the schedule I have given you." Lilith said with a smile.

"If you say so, mom." Lith said and got back to train. He had full trust in his mother and sister and thus he would follow their things religiously. He didn't question again and simply did what he was told to.

....

Auckland city, Villmer country, Human continent.

"Huff...Huff...Huff.."

A man was panting heavily while taking support of the tree near him. He was currently being chased and had ran all the way into the deepest parts of the woods near the Auckland city.

'Why the fuck this happend?' the man thought to himself.

"Yo. Didn't expect me to be here did you?" A black hair and blue eyed youth said after coming out of a tree.

"Y-you, who are you?" The man said in shock. He couldn't believe it. He was being chased by a group of people from a village far from the city all the way upto the forest and now he somehow lost them and had a bit of relief when suddenly somone else appeared now. Was his luck really very bad? He questioned himself.

"Me? Forget about me. Do you remember the girl named Rae who you r*ped a few months ago?" The black hair blue eyed teen said in a neutral tone.

The man tried to remember but he couldn't. How would he be able to remember every girl he fucked in these few months? He thought. He still calmed himself down and said

"What do you want? Money? Power? Beauty? I have a few connections in Auckland and I could get you into the nobility if you want. I also have many beauties available and money to give you if you want."

"Do you think of me as a scum such as yourself?" The teen answered emotionlessly.

The man tried to think of something. Suddenly he had an idea in his mind. He said with a smile

"Hey man, you shouldn't be so rude with your fellow comrade from Earth, should you?"

The teen was taken aback. 'What the fuck? this bastard knows I am reincarnated? No, can't be possible. Frrom my previous life as a law student, I for sure know that this might be a test to check something about me. He must be waiting for me to give an abnormal reaction to such a question. In any case, there's only thing needed to do now'. He thought.

The teen's eyes shone with a silver glint and there was a bright blinding light in the surroundings making the man close his eyes due to so much light. The man didn't understand what just happened but suddenly the light started dimming. It dimmed and dimmed and there was now darkness all around. His thinking stopped and his body fell lifelessly on the ground. His body had no head as it was chopped off in that momentary brilliance.

The teen cast a basic rank 1 stun spell of light element which could make the target feel blinded for a few seconds. He only needed those few seconds to go ahead and chop the man's head off. The man had his spiritual energy drained off by his chasers and the remaining energy was used up for running away deep into the woods. He was very helpless in that moment as he couldn't even cast one spell. Thus, he died by the sword attack of a mere rank 1.

The teen after killing the man once again felt something in his body. He got very happy and almost shed some tears due to happiness. He quickly destroyed all evidence and sat down cross legged and tried to observe what this feeling in his body was. After a few seconds he opened his eyes and stood up. He looked at the tree nearby and ran straight to it.

The teen got very close to the tree. It was almost now so close that he would hit the tree if he moved even a few inches forward. Suddenly, the boy took a step forward but he didn't hit the tree. He was at the back of the tree now. He stopped and muttered to himself

"Interesting. I have super reflexes it seems."

He then ran once again into the tree and then onto the next one and kept on going until

BAMM!

The boy hit a tree and fell down. He got up and cast a healing spell on himself and then muttered to himself with a helpless smile

"Sigh. So it is only available for 10 seconds."

He then thought 'Wait. That guy, he said he was from Earth. Was he really saying the truth? If yes, then this world surely would have more people from Earth and they too might have such abilities. Killing him gave me this ability and it probably wasn't a one time thing that I had. Maybe, no, not maybe, I think I should test this out. But where am I supposed to find another earthling?'

The boy paced back and forth and kept wandering around the area where he killed the man. He kept thinking and suddenly said in a little excited tone

"Yes! That may work! Scums of Earth who are doing evil over here need to die. Killing them would benefit this world and having their abilities as mine is just the world rewarding me. There's nothing wrong with this. Alright then, it's time to make my move. I need to prepare as much as I can before the academy entrance."

He then took out a scroll, poured his spiritual energy into it and vanished from the spot.

...

Royal Castle, Nightingale.

Lith was currently having a rapid fire questioning round with his mother while battling her flying, with a sword, wrist and ankle weights attached to him.

This was a form of training he had to do almost everyday since the last ten years. Though the intensity wasn't as high as this back then. Right now, he was training his body, swordsmanship, flight ability, reflexes, agility, intelligence, mind as well as his willpower.

He kept dodging and attacking Lilith's attacks on him while giving her answers to the questions she asked. Lilith asked while attacking Lith

"Why does the gravity not affect the beings in the world much even though the world is so huge?"

Lith kept dodging and attacking and his mind drifted a little to think about the answer and

SMACKK!

He got hit on his lower spine from behind and it broke it many pieces. Lith quickly cast Space Jump and teleported away a little and quickly defended himself from the attack that came at his face from Lilith's bare hand. Lilith asked

"What are the coordinates of the moon of the Neutral Continent?"

Lith attacked Lilith after defending himself on her sides with his sword and answered simultaneously

"The coordinates as seen from the Neutral continent itself are..."

Lith answered and attacked Lilith again. This continued on and Lilith asked many questions. Some were questions that not many knew of answers to and yet Lith was able to answer them very well. It was all thanks to Lucy's training of having him to memorize and comprehend things while he was still small. Lith had to study intensively for many hours under great pressure everyday at the end of the day after his other training and this was the result. He had a vast knowledge about things. He didn't have advanced knowledge in science, mathematics and languages but he had a very vast knowledge in them.

He could basically understand roughly about any and every topic talked about but his understanding wasn't very deep. Therefore, he could answer most of Lilith's questions and the ones which he couldn't he would simply say "Next" or "Don't know" so Lilith would change the question. If he skipped questions three times in a row he would have the weight of his wrist and ankles increased which in turn would result in him getting blasted by Lilith.

The training continued for roughly three hours and Lith felt very exhausted. This was only his second day and yet it was so tiring. He had never multi-tasked so much ever before. He had to focus on so many things at once and it felt like his brain was frying due to so much pressure. He nevertheless endured this training. He landed on ground and immediately removed the wrist and ankle weights, retracted his wings and collapsed on his back on the ground.

He was taking in long and deep breaths and was trying to relax. Lilith landed beside him and didn't ask or say anything to him and simply held him in her embrace and started walking out of the arena.

Lith was currently resting his head on his mother's shoulder, his arms wrapped around her neck, his legs dangling to the sides and his butt resting on both of her palms. He was very exhausted and sleepy right now. He took a deep breath and tried to stay awake. He opened his mouth a little, revealing his sharp fangs and he bit on Lilith's neck. He drank her blood for a few seconds and finally fell asleep.

Lilith used her forearm to support Lith and freed one of her hand. She patted on his back and took him to her bedroom to sleep. After arriving in the bedroom, she put him down on the bed and slept beside him herself. She snapped her fingers and Lith got naked and cleaned as well. There were no signs of any sweat or blood on him. Lilith too got cleaned and hugged Lith to sleep.
