Infinite Paths: The Raging Phoenix

Chapter 723 Powerful relics

From that day onward, Rain and his wives took turns teaching their children. Rain thought that it was about time to teach Sealyn a bunch of words, but Seara ran away as fast as she could when she heard that from Rain. She didn't want her to be under Rain's guidance until she could stand on her own and could walk around without support.

"A toddler has to be a toddler… we can't determine her path in life like this," Seara said.

Now that Rain thought about it, Seara was probably worried that Sealyn could receive some weight on her shoulders since she was the sea emperor's first granddaughter… Seadrei could expect a lot from her or spoil her rotten. Seara had experienced both things, only to suffer several shocks over time when she realized that things are different in the real world.

She was praised for her talent and beauty countless times, but only that wasn't enough to make her thrive in the real world… she probably didn't want Sealyn to suffer the same shock.

"What made you look so dejected even until now?" Terra asked. "You are still troubled over what Seara said? Did you really want to teach Sealyn words that she won't use in ten years?"

"Huh?... I wonder what?" Rain said while his eyes were rolling nervously.

Rain had never intended to force all his children to follow his exact path. His primary aim was to impart crucial skills and knowledge that he deemed important for their well-being and development. However, despite his intentions, he observed an interesting phenomenon.

In the case of Danny and Annie, despite his efforts to provide a more well-rounded education and guidance, they were greatly influenced by their observations of Rain's daily routine and intense training regimen. Witnessing their father's rigorous training and commitment had a profound impact on them. Children tend to mimic the behaviors and actions they observe, often without explicit instructions.

As a result, Danny and Annie naturally gravitated toward emulating Rain's training methods and lifestyle.

Despite Rain's initial intentions to provide a diverse learning experience, the natural tendency of children to emulate those they admire ultimately steered Danny and Annie toward emulating their father's ways.

"Anyway, when are we returning to the southern headquarters?" Terra asked. "We can't stay here in the capital forever."

"I know that, but I am starting to think that we should stay here… for the kids, they only interact with each other, but they need to see other kids living their lives as well to understand that they have other paths aside from just fighting," Rain explained.

"... I guess you have a point," Terra said while holding her chin. "That being said, the kids don't leave this house often… perhaps we should talk with them around."

Danny and Anny were at the age where they could go to a school, but if compared to what their parents could teach them, school and even the magic academy were rather slow when it comes to efficiency… but there was the social aspect of the school as well. Rain felt thorn between those options.

While Rain was thinking about such things, several weeks passed, and they didn't find any signs of the dragons' activities. That wasn't completely unexpected since their sense of time couldn't be compared to humans, but it was still odd that the magic and the beast people weren't doing anything. Were they afraid of exposing their backs to the dragons?

While big problems didn't trouble them, small ones began to trouble the humans… all the remaining dungeons broke around the same week and three weeks after the first one, so a large concentration of monsters suddenly appeared in their territory.

Still, all the headquarters were ready for that, and they had hundreds of warriors ready to face the threat, so the Monsters were all eliminated on the very same day.

Rain read the reports saying such things, and he nodded in satisfaction… Around the same time, Rain also received an interesting report from Lotto… it seemed that he had crafted some interesting artifacts, two of which would be very useful to him.

Lotto was still working on the port town since he was still using the materials they got in the previous battle… at that rate, he felt like he would die first before he could run out of materials from dragons.

In any case, when Rain arrived at his workshop, he found two relics carefully stored in a chest.

Sea Dragon Scale Staff was an apparent show of the awe-inspiring might of the sea dragon. Crafted from the durable and colorful scales of the sea dragons, this staff emanated a shimmering luminescence akin to the depths of the ocean.

Each scale was carefully interwoven into the staff's structure, creating a seamless and beautiful display of aquatic hues—shades of aquamarine, sapphire, and emerald intermingled in a mesmerizing pattern along its length.

The sea dragon scale staff boasted five cores, each harvested from the essence of these mythical creatures. These cores, pulsating with ethereal energy, were embedded at strategic intervals along the staff, radiating an otherworldly aura.

The combination of the sea dragon scales and the potent cores imbued the staff with an immense magical resonance, enhancing its abilities and evoking a sense of raw power that could be harnessed by skilled water magic wielders.

Leviathan Dragon Bone Staff was carved from the colossal bone of a leviathan dragon. This staff was a proof of both grandeur and rarity. The long bone, robust and imposing in its structure, served as the primary material for the staff.

The staff held a single transparent core derived from the essence of the same leviathan dragon. The core, resembling a crystalline gem, emitted a faint, pulsating glow within the staff, hinting at its latent power.

While possessing only one core, the unique resonance between the bone staff and its solitary core conveyed a sense of unparalleled strength, symbolizing the legendary might of the leviathan dragon... Rain could feel its power by holding it and felt healthier.
