The dragon's harem
Chapter 53 1-Tier Fire Training III

Arad stared at Lydia, "That sounds strange. Is it because of my draconic bloodline?"

After standing, "Yeah, seeing the power of your magic, I would say that's the case." Amber looked at Arad, "Just like [Bonfire], your mana density is muffling her senses."

Aella grabbed Arad's hand and helped him stand, "Should we stop the training? You are getting hurt."

Arad stared at her for a moment, patting her head, "I'm fine. You know I can take more."

"Come on, lady. The man fought werewolves." One of the adventurers shouted.

Jack looked back at them with an exhausted face, "Aren't they too excited?"

Lydia stared at him. "For all they know, Arad is an S-rank only held by the ranking system. Once his power becomes known, they can rely on him to clear deadly threats."

Jack nodded, "I remember seeing the injured adventurers on expeditions. It would have helped to have a powerful blaster." He smiled, "I bet they would be thrilled if he could do a massive explosion to mow down the hoards of minions."

"Exactly," Lydia turned around, "Let's go,"

Aella patted Arad's back, "Be careful,"

Amber looked at them, "Ok. Look at me," She lifted a finger in front of Arad, "Release the magic from the base and ignite it with your nail, Do it slowly at first and then increase the firepower."

Arad lifted his finger, creating a stream of fire similar to [Flamethrower]

"Not like that. The inscription is MP-O2-Ingis," Amber said with a straight face.

Arad stared at her tilting his head, "What?"

"MP-O2-Ingis. The basic fire ignition, don't you know that?" She stared at him, confused more than he was.

"I don't know it. I never studied magic. Start from the beginning." Arad replied to her.

"Stop joking. You can't use all that fire magic without knowing MP-O2-Ingis." She scratched her head, "Don't tell me all of this was innate?"

"It is. I'm a red draconic bloodline. Of course, I can manipulate flames. Even the mages who came to the city said I'm an early generation," Arad replied with a passive face.

"Your draconic ancestor could be as close as a grandfather. No wonder your fire mastery is high." Amber sighed, "Now that makes more sense," She sat down.

"Are you Okay?" Arad asked, looking at her face.

"I'm fine," Amber smiled, standing up. "Let me teach you MP-O2-Ignis." She smiled.

After an hour of explaining the magic, this was what Arad understood.

M: It is mana. The power to fuel magic.

P: Pressure. The density of mana.

O: Is the burning medium? Oxygen.

2: How many units are needed? You can either absorb it from the air or create it with magic.

Ignis: This is a spell to create an ignition spark.

Arad wasn't even listening when she explained since he could cast magic innately, "So, like this?" He said, lifting his finger and generating a Fire claw.

Amber nodded with a smile, "That's it." She opened her palm and created five claws. "Now try more."

Arad created the claws as easily as he breathed, "What about their damage?"

"I told you before, the same MP consumption and damage," Amber replied, sitting on the fence.

Arad smiled, "So, what is the next spell?"

"Let's go with [Overheat] because it's simple." Amber smiled, clapping her hands together, "This spell slowly increases the temperature of something from your choice,"

Arad looked at her, "Is such a spell useful? What could it do?"

"Most adventurers use it to keep warm in the snow, heat food, or tents. Constant nights of cold can be lethal." Amber jumped down from the fence and opened her palm. "You can even heat the air in a limited area to make the inside of a tent comfortable."

^I'm a dragon, so I don't need that. But I'm sure Aella would find it useful...No we could hug each other in the cold, that's a good idea.^ Arad smiled, nodding to himself.

Jack looked at him, "What are you thinking of, Chief."

Hearing Jack's voice, Arad snapped back to reality. ^I would need to keep Jack warm as well.^ With a sigh, he opened his palm, heating the air around it.

When Amber looked closely, she saw the air shimmering on top of his palm, "The spell worked," She smiled, "You learn fast,"

Arad smiled, "No, you're an amazing teacher," He replied. ^Mom, I need your advice. Am I doing the right thing?^ He looked up with a sad face. Slowly, he started to feel lonely. Mom, who was with him since he hatched, is nowhere to be seen.

"Are you Okay?" Amber asked while patting his head.

***

"Yeah. I remembered something. What's the next spell?" Arad asked while smiling, slight flames seeping from his hands.

Amber could feel that something was off about him, "We can stop for now if you want. The most important thing when learning magic is to do it at your own pace." She smiled, swinging her staff around.

Arad shook his head, "No, I still have work to do so let's finish the spells."

Amber nodded, "Well then, the next spell is [Flame diversion]" She cracked her neck while stretching her arms and legs, giving the adventurers behind an unintended show of some fine bread.

"What are you doing?" Aella asked, staring at her with a disappointed face.

"[Flame diversion] require moving. I need to warm up first." Amber replied.

Jack looked at her, "That is expected. She is old, after all."

KA-DON! A firebolt flew toward his face at high speed, barely missing him. Jack stared to the side at his smoking hair. "What did you say?"

"That's you are old?" Jack replied as naturally as he breathed.

KA-DON! KA-DON! Two firebolts flew toward Jack at a blinding speed. Lydia leaped forward. CLACK! ZAN! With a swift move, she pulled her shield, deflecting the first one while cutting the second with her sword.

"Hoi! That's dangerous," Lydia growled, staring at Amber.

"Then tell you, man, to not call people old," Amber glared at her with flame bursting from her hair.

"It's a fact. Your face looks older than lettuce." Lydia's eyes started flashing golden as she approached Amber. The two were about to fight.

"STOP!" Aella pulled Lydia away while Arad took Amber. "Don't fight," He growled.

Amber sighed, and her flames faded. "Forget it. Let's get this training over with." She walked away from Arad and looked at him. "Shoot me with a firebolt."

"Okay," Arad lifted his palm, firing a single shot. KA-DON!

Amber swung her staff to the side, hitting the firebolt and deflecting it like a ball. "This spell calms the flames for a moment, allowing you to deflect them." She then pointed her staff at Arad, "Flamethrower,"

Without hesitation, Arad pointed at her [Flamethrower]

As the flames roared, Amber spun her staff ahead of her body, deflecting the flames as if they were nothing. "It consumes as much magic as the spell cast. Feel free to use it as you wish."

Arad smiled, looking at his hands, "Fire something at me."

Amber pointed her palm at him, "Get ready. Here it is coming." With her words, a firebolts flew at his face.

CLAP! Arad swung his palm, slapping it away.
