First Legendary Dragon: Starting With The Limitless System - Chapter 463

Chapter 463: Visiting City
Some of them would stand in the front of attack, and then after exhausting their mana, they would be replaced by the second batch of mages while they recovered under the protection of others.

Orion, throughout the training, lay down on his chair while Fiora and Rina served him diligently. While the students looked at him with envy.

After all the students left, the group gathered around Orion and the others. Arya said with a large smile on her face, “The students are better than I thought. They did well for their first day.”

Orion nodded his head and stood up, stretching his body, “Yes, it was an exhausting day. Rest well everyone, you will need to work hard.”

Everyone’s faces filled with black lines seeing his feigned ‘exhausted’ expression. He had done nothing but lay down on his chair the whole day.

But before the others could rebuke him, he walked towards the path that led to the exit and said, “Alright I’m going out to explore the city. You guys can go rest. I will be back before the time for dinner.”

Without waiting for their answer, he hurriedly left the mansion, fearing they might curse at him.

The others speechlessly looked at each other before shaking their heads and going back to their rooms. Rina and Fiora stood together while looking at Orion’s leaving back.

“I’m going to breakthrough to the 8th Tier today.” Fiora softly said.

Rina’s smile widened, “Likewise. Otherwise I would have gone with Young Master to explore the city.”

The two of them headed inside while chatting. They were about to breakthrough and it was very important for them to increase their chances of survival.

And with their increased strength they could also help Orion more.

***

A handsome young man with long black hair walked on the streets with his hands in his pockets while curiously looking around. Of course, it was Orion.

‘The cities in this world are really massive…’ He inwardly heaved a sigh.

He had been exploring the city for a few hours now and hadn’t even explored one part of the city.

Lumi’s melodious voice sounded in his head,

[The continent is also very massive Master. Just the Zorathal continent alone is many times larger than Earth from your previous life.]

Orion nodded his head, ‘A normal person can’t even explore one zone even if he dedicated his entire life to exploring the continent.’

[That’s why you need to get stronger so you can explore all the places yourself! ＼(≧▽≦)／]

Orion chuckled while looking around, the people on the streets had calmed down a lot compared to before since the demons hadn’t attacked for a while now.

While the number of merchants had increased since they came out from their shops to actively sell their goods to those who came recently to the city.

He came out this time to see how the city had been developing as well as to see how the people were faring.

Soon, he came in front of a buns stand and saw that there was a middle-aged woman in rugged clothes or rather sacks and a young little girl looking at the woman with her large pure eyes.

“Sir please give us some money. My daughter hasn’t eaten anything for two days…”

The woman had been asking others for money to feed her young kid, but most of the people passing by the place just ignored her.

Conditions like this were commonplace in the city right now. With some families breaking at every wave. Even the Kingdom couldn’t help everyone as each time they sent a large amount of food, it was intercepted by high level demons.

Even when they sent the food secretly in storage rings, the demons somehow got the news about it and killed them. And this was not the only city which was engulfed in war.

Just at this side of the border, dozens of cities were fighting against the tides of demons with similar conditions.

Orion looked at the little girl and her large innocent eyes reminded him of Little Lyra. With a hint of pity in his eyes, he went towards the pair of mother and daughter.

The pair of mother and daughter saw someone approaching them as they looked at him.

He gently asked the pair, “Do the two of you want to eat some buns?”

The little girl’s eyes lit up hearing about buns but she didn’t directly ask Orion for it, instead she looked at her mother, waiting for her to decide.

Orion felt a pang of sadness seeing her being forced to mature by the circumstances as the playfulness of the child was slowly fading away.

The older woman hurriedly nodded her head and moved her body to kneel on the ground, “Thank you Young Noble. I would appreciate it—”

Suddenly, a gust of wind arose and gently lifted her up, “You don’t have to kneel, it’s not much for me.” He gently smiled.

Turning his head to the stall owner, he loudly said, “Boss, can you give me a dozen buns? Here is the money.” And he gave him a bunch of copper coins.

One bun was priced at 2 copper coins. While Orion had traded a few mana crystals for coins before he came to the city since he didn’t want to use mana crystals for every little thing.

“Coming right up,” The shop owner, a burly middle-aged man with a beard looked at the pair of mother and daughter and then turned his face to Orion before packing a dozen buns in a large packet and gave it to Orion.

Orion handed the buns to the pair of mother and daughter, “Eat it before it gets cold okay?”

The mother gratefully nodded her head and led her daughter to a park nearby to feed her.

Heaving a sigh, Orion turned to return to the mansion, he wasn’t in the mood to continue exploring the city anymore. Otherwise, the only thing he would get would be depression.

***

Returning to his room after dinner, he sat on his bed while muttering, “I must raise my power as soon as possible…”

The Golden Headband flashed on his head briefly before he arrived in the inheritance ground.

He went towards the second area where everyone gathered to chat and soon found that Continuum was also sitting there alone, sipping wine.

He went towards him and sat down beside him, making Continuum turn his head to look at the newcomer, “Ah Young Orion, long time no see. How have you been?” Chuckling softly, he asked.

Orion shook his head while taking out a glass, “Not quite good. There is a demon wave which will soon attack our city. So there are a lot of troubles waiting for me outside.”

Continuum poured him wine while raising an eyebrow, “Which faction of demons are you facing?”

“72 Demon Kings.” Orion precisely said while drinking the whole cup of wine in one gulp.

During this time, he had frequently visited the inheritance ground, and also met up with Continuum quite a few times. Soon, the two of them became acquaintances.

Orion then learned that Continuum wasn’t only a Tier 9 cultivator but his profession was also quite… special. He specialized in stealing treasures from the sects of his world.

His world was largely dominated by sects instead of having kingdoms and empires. And his world was also higher leveled than his. But still in a Small Chiliocosm.

“72 Demon Kings? Not bad, those should give you enough trouble. The 72 Demon Kings are one of the strongest factions among the demons. Especially the Ruler of the 72 Demon Kings… Now that’s a legendary existence.” Continuum said with a sigh filled with longing.

He also wanted such power, to rule over such a large faction of powerhouses who could dominate myriad worlds.

Orion looked at him and asked curiously, “Ruler? Who’s the ruler of the 72 Demons?”

He inwardly wondered if it was Satan or Lucifer. Among the novels he had read, most of the time these two were the ones leading the demons.

“It’s Lucifer… but he’s too far away from us. He resides in one of the Great Chiliocosm, you are merely in a Small Chiliocosm.” His lips curled up in disdain, “Wait until you at least reach Middle Chiliocosm before asking about him.”

Orion’s lips twitched, “What’s with that gaze? Aren’t you also living in a Small Chiliocosm?”

Continuum proudly patted his chest, “Of course, but I know my limits. I’m content being a small thief in my small world. But you… you seem like you want to challenge Lucifer right now.”

Orion felt like beating him up. Was he dumb enough to challenge Lucifer with his current strength?

He looked at him with disdain clear in his eyes and said, “Small thief? If I remember correctly, the last time you were being hunted down by Exalted Grade beings because you stole the Holy Sword of one of your world’s great sects. And that sect happens to have Empyrean level powerhouses. Is that something a ‘small thief’ would do?”

Continuum waved his hand, “Minor matter, minor matter. Aren’t I holed up here to increase my strength so I won’t have to hide like this? Anyways why you came here?”

Orion also decided to drop the matter and answered him, “I want to breakthrough to the Eighth Grade now.”

“Oh? Nice idea, but you came at the wrong place.” He said with a hint of pity in his gaze and placed a hand on his shoulder, “It’s impossible to breakthrough levels here.”
