CH.220 People having their first dragon flight

  I woke up in the m. Again, what a surprise. Well, that means I’m not evolving. I decided to still take a look at my status, just to make sure nothing strange is going on.

  SpoilerName: Brian WoodRace: Human !Level: 80HP: 2740Mana: 368th: 795Defense: 995Magic: 995 Skills: Pack Opener LV.4 (unique)Different Dimension Factory LV.3 (ue LV.10 (unique) Telekinesis LV.5 (extra)Summoner’s Unity LV.5 (extra)Dungeon Founder (extra)Summon Water Spirit (extra)Health scious (extra) Mana trol LV.7 Water Spirit’s Blessing (Greater)Language prehension (humanoid)Sve MasterSves: Rhianna[colpse]Yeap. Everything is normal… Except the leveled up Different Dimension Factory. … I don’t know if I’m happy or sad about this, but I’ll accept it. But it does still feel a bit like Fantasia is stealing the power I would use to evolve just so she level herself up. But she is cute, so I’ll five her.

  Well, let’s just jump into the factory and see what has ged.

  “Papa!” Fantasia jumped at me before I could evehe eyes of my avatar. I took her into my arms and opened my eyes.

  She still looked simir to what she had looked like, except that I think she might have grown a bit. Previously, I would have guessed her to be between 5 and 6 years old, but now, she is more like 7. Her light brown hair was about as long as it had been previously and her eyes were still the same green shimmering color that they had been.

  “M, Fantasia. You leveled up.”

  “Yes. Papa, am I amazing?”

  “Yes. Yes you are. Do you know what hings you do?”

  “New..? I have papa here for longer!” She excimed.

  “Here for longer?” I questioned.

  “Yes. Papa won’t have to go back so soon.”

  … yeah. I have no clue what that means.

  “I might be able to expier.” Laura said, as she realized o us. “It means that the time dition effect between this spad the real world has amplified. At level 2, this world was 1.2 times faster thaside world, but now it is 1.6 times faster.”

  “Oh? So that is what she meant. Anything else?”

  “We were able to make the e to other users more stable, so Miss Lucia should have better visuals when she es in. I think we might even be able to think about bringing others without a system support here, if Fantasia levels up to LV.4.”

  “Okay. That’s good. What kind of quality are we talking about?”

  “I’ll just show you.” Laura said, aered my body.

  My vision blurred a bit and it got … slow. No. Not slow. Frame-y. Like trading from a 144hz puter monitor to a 60hz monitor. I couldn’t see as ‘fast’. Does that make sense? But u time, the quality drop was a lot more insignifit. The world still looked quite sharp and didn’t get pixeted like it did st time.1 In CH.175 It still wasn’t quite at real life levels, but I’d call it good.

  “Speaking ing others here, what we do about that?” I asked.

  “Not much, sadly.” Laura answered. “Miss Lucia is special because of the system link, so for others we would either have to replicate it, which I don’t think is possible, or we could use magic, but that will affect quality. I’ve also been making prototype data transfer devices with Tahlia, so we could try that. But that will require you to be close by with the person you are bringing into the factory.”

  “So like a wired e. I see. So Lua is using the i, magic is like … bluetooth maybe, and we could also use a wire.” I recapped in a way that kind of expi to me.

  “If you want to look at it that way. But yes. The biggest problem doing it without the visitor having system support is distaransferring precise magic over a long distance is not the easiest thing.”

  “... I see. … could we make a device that hold a system link?” I asked.

  “Impossible.” Laura immediately answered.

  “Then perhaps making a e server with my cards? Use them for the e, instead of normal magic? Like how my and Christina’s terminals are ected?”

  “... we might be able to. But that would require…” Laura muttered, befetting deep into thought.

  “Papa, we go py?” Fantasia asked me, as my versation with Laura seemed to have ended.

  “Sure. Let’s do it.” I agreed. “Laura, we’ll be off.”

  “Yes. Have fun.” She said, before falling bato thought.

  Lua appeared in the factory while I ying with Fantasia, so I … forcefully teleported her over to where we were so we could talk. Yes, I basically kidnapped her. Well then again, she could just escape into the real world if she wao, so I ’t really hold her hostage. And she didn’t mind.

  I expihat Fantasia, well the factory, had leveled up, and that is why her visuals had improved. Not fetting the stroime ditioher. They were both important things. You could easily lose your sense of time if you spent a bit too long here. An hour outside is 96 minutes here, and so on. That could easily lead to some jetg feelings, if you were here for a couple of hours in a row. Not that you really should, as you really should disect at least once every hour, just so you feel how your physical body feels, take a few steps, maybe drink a bit of water, or blood in Lua’s case.

  I spent a bit more time in the factory, not fetting to visit Tahlia, before returning to the real world aing ready for breakfast.

  During breakfast, I asked the Earl for permission to fly some smaller dragons to the west of the city. I had of course informed him of the new Card Summoners, including the cards they got. He was a bit hesitant, but said that as long as we didn’t summooo close to the city, we were allowed to do it.

  “Brian, I e as well? I also want to fly my dragon.” Alice said, after hearing that we would be on back today.

  Well, Ria would be flying on Firebird, as she doesn’t currently own a dragon. Sure I could give her something like Masked Dragon or Horus the Bck Fme Dragon LV4, but I think Firebird is good for now.

  Spoiler[colpse]“Sure, I don’t mind. As long as no one else is opposed to it.” As I said that, I looked at Elnora, the Earl’s wife. I know she has been pushing Alice to have dance lessons, so she could da the birthday party.

  “... hmm. She has beeier, but we are running out of time.” She said. “Brian, your … summons. Do any of them specialize in dance?”

  “Only sword dang, as far as I remember.” I answered, obviously referring to Performance of Sword. I haven’t summoned her for a while. She isn’t a bad monster, she just isn’t quite as strong as I’d like her to be. My skills greatest weakness is just that. I have so many mohat I want to summon, but I’m just one person. There is no way I give all of them the attention they deserve.

  “I see…”

  “But if that really is a deal breaker, I have a summon that py musid I just dance a bit with Alice myself. Won’t that be a good alternative to the lesson?” I asked.

  “Yes! Let’s do that.” Alistantly agreed.

  “I suppose that will suffice.” Elnave in. “But if I hear that you lied about it, I’ll make sure you both have ara long dance lesson tomorrow.”

  I know it won’t fully rep actual lesson, but I think I also use this as an excuse to have Lua dah me. Depending on how things go, she might be my +1 for the party, so having her know at least some dang would help a lot. We could also potentially practice the steps in the factory. The time dition would help us with how long it will likely take.

  “... will this really be fine?” Agatha asked. icked her up, driven outside the city walls in Overdrive and were now about to summon our rides.

  “Yeap. I got permission, so it is fine. I also warhe gateguards.” I reassured her.

  “... how do you even go about that? Asking a noble for something like that?”

  “Just bring it up at the breakfast table. It is quite simple when you eat at the same table as said noble.”

  “... of course. I’ll never get used to that.”

  “I hope you will. I am a half-noble and I do have a retionship with your daughter, so I hope you get used to it at some point.”

  “... I’ll try.”

  “Well, at least that isn’t relevant at the moment. e o’s summon our rides.” I said to get us ba track. “Alice, do you want to demonstrate?”

  “Sure.” Alice said, she dug around in her fanny pack for a sed and pulled out a card. “Element Dragon.”

  Spoiler

  [colpse]

  Oh? She didn’t summon Pitch-Dark Dragon? Well, I guess Element Dragon will work just as well, I just assumed she would summon Pitch-Dark instead. I’d actually almost fotten that I’ve given her a Dragon.2 She got Element Dragon in CH.186

  “... I see.” Agatha muttered. “That didn’t expin anything.”

  “Just say the name written at the top of the card to summon the monster.” I expined.

  “A-Alright. I’ll do that.” She said, as she got out her card. “Luster Dragon.”

  Spoiler

  [colpse]

  Both Element Dragon and Luster Dragon were on the smaller side, in terms of my dragons. Element Dragon’s main body was about four meters long, but it had a long ned tail to make it look a ler. Luster Dragon oher hand had a rger main body, about 6 meters, but a shorter ned tail. But they were still both clearly uhe teer mark, so I’ll call them small.

  For my dragon, I summohe Dragon Dwelling in the Cave. Just because I wanted one of the sub teer dragons.

  Spoiler[colpse]He was just a bit rger than Luster Dragon, so my dragon was the rgest of them. No, I’m not pensating or showing off. Well, maybe a bit. But holy, The Dragon Dwelling in the Cave just has this scale pattern on its back, which makes for a really nice seat. I learhat in the factory while flying on the dragons with Fantasia.

  Ria summoned her Firebird, we all got on, and took off.

  Our flight wasful. I took the lead as with Laura, I had a mental map so we could easily make our way to the vilge even if we didn’t follow the road. Not that it really matters, as not that many people travel this way anyway.

  By the time we nded, Agatha seemed quite fortable with her dragon and was even speaking with it in that strange nguage dragons use. She did get the skill. Or is it a title? It acts like a skill, but Laura said it is a title, because it doesn’t actually give any stat points. Anyway, getting used to riding a dragon that fast. Well, I guess it isn’t that much more difficult than riding a horse. It is actually easier, sidering that we are basically bareback. Bareback horse riding is more difficult than riding one of my dragons. Not that I have any experience riding barebabsp;

  The vilgers, as was usual, came to wele us to the vilge. But this time we got everyoo e out, because of our unusual rides.

  “Brian. Everyone. Hi.” Lua awkwardly greeted us after we dismounted.

  “Hi Lua.” I said back.

  “So, why the dragons? And the bird?” She asked.

  “Just getting your mother used to it. We will run out of time if we don’t do it now.”

  “I see. Well, how was the flight? Did you get cold?”

  “Nah. It isn’t that bad, at least with the dragon I used. His head is good for proteg me from the wind.” I expined. “Ali the other hand…” I added, looking back at Alice who had, after nding, went closer to Firebird to warm up.

  It wasn’t a cold day, but the temperature was still about 15°C 3 59°F , so with the windchill from flying, it could get a bit cold.

  Ria naturally wasn’t cold, sidering that her bird was literally on fire. Not that the fire would burn, uhe bird wa to burn. And Agatha also seemed just fine, but that might be because she is just built different. Literally. Or maybe she used wind magic to protect herself from the wind.

  I was about to unsummon my dragon, but instead, I had two dhampir children ask me for something.

  “Mr. Summoner, could we…” Kody began, but couldn’t finish his question.

  “Could we ride your dragon?” Anika finished what Kody wao ask.

  “Of course. We take a quick ride.” I answered. No, I’m not letting them go by themselves, but luckily my dragon should be able to carry all three of us. It carried me and Fantasia just fine, so one more shouldn’t matter. “Lua, want to join us?”

  “... no. I’ll fly with you some other time. Maybe you take me on that white dragon again, but ier weather this time.”

  “Of course. Any time you want.” I promised.

  I guess Lua is still the only ohat has ridden a Blue-Eyes, other than me. She also got to ride LV8 Horus.

  I would say she is the only oo ride one of my rge dragons, but Alid Ria flew on Tyrant Dragon, so that just isn’t true.

  “e, you two. Let’s go take a flight.” I said to the two children.

  ““Yes!”” They both answered.

  We all got on The Dragon Dwelling in the Cave. Cody was sitting in the front, Anika behind him, and I was behind her. I wao be in the back, so I could easily see the two of them. And if either of them looks like they will fall, I hopefully use telekinesis to hold them in pce.

  After we were properly sitting down, I gave my dragon the order aook off.
