- Felix -

It's been a little while since I dealt with Charybdis.

Ever since then I've been training Saeko and Raiden in my spare time and boy have they improved.

Currently I'm sparring with both Saeko and Raiden at the same time, the two of them wanted to see how large the difference between us was.

I saw no reason to refuse, knowing them this will only motivate them further.

I duck under Saeko's blade and dodge a lightning bolt from Raiden.

I had Infinity ignore the two of them for this fight, they won't learn a thing if they can't even get close to me.

I'm also not using many skills, this is a fight for them to learn, not for me to dominate.

This routine continues for a while, they try to hit me, and I avoid them.

Raiden has tried out a few abilities I taught her, like Lightning Armor along with creating her own abilities.

For example she was able to create a localized storm surrounding her that causes mass destruction all around.

We had to move that fight far far away.

She was able to gain the Extra Skill: Weather Manipulation through that.

Even Saeko is learning all sorts of new things, she created her own variant of the Hazy Style that is suited towards her more berserker-like swordsmanship.

I think that's shown them a little bit of how much they have to grow, not to make sure the lesson sticks.

I decide to try out a new application of Limitless I've been wanting to try out.

The concept is that I use Blue between my fist and my target to attract the two together, then I use Red behind the target to add even more momentum.

I could even add in Amplifier but I don't think I need to do that for this fight.

I dodge another Lightning covered fist from Raiden and take this opportunity to try out the new application of Limitless.

The moment my fist hits her stomach she goes flying, oh man that looks like it would do a lot of damage to most monsters.

Even Raiden, who is a Dragon with a naturally tough physique, is gonna take some time to walk that one off, and that's with Self-Regeneration.

I wasn't even seriously trying to hurt her there.

This ability will definitely come in handy.

Now to deal with Saeko, aha, I'll try that, I hide my left arm behind my back and discreetly charge up a magic bullet while I fight Saeko.

Once the bullet is sufficiently charged I quickly teleport behind Saeko with Blue and hit her point blank in the back with it.

Alright, and that's that.

"Alright you two, you've both improved a lot, at your current level I would say you both have a decent chance against someone at the level of a Demon Lord Seed, together I could easily see you taking out a Demon Lord Seed. Quite the impressive level of growth in such a short amount of time you two."

Truly, they have grown a lot.

"Ah truly Felix-sama, you give us too much credit, it was all thanks to your training."

Sigh, Raiden is always like that.

"Sure, my training has helped, but don't underestimate your own hard work you two."

Saeko looked proudly at me, "Umu! Thank you Felix-sama, I shall endeavor to grow stronger! Now that we are done, would you like me to prepare my specially made curry?"

"Ah no, I just ate a little bit before we started training, just make sure to keep practicing though!"

"Okay Felix-sama! I will make the best food you have ever tasted!"

Phew, that's another bullet dodged, for now at least.

"Felix-sama, something for you to take into account is that last punch made me slightly nauseous." 

"I see, likely a side effect of suddenly being pulled in one direction then having that same movement immediately reverse, eh not really something I need to worry about, it will only help me in a fight if my enemy is nauseous after all. Thanks for letting me know though."

"I was only doing my duty."

"You both should take some time to rest, especially you Raiden, it will take time even for your Self-Regeneration to heal you."

"Yes Felix-sama." 

Once that was over I headed towards the hotspring, man is that place great.

I stick to my male form this time as I relax and ponder what I want to do next.

I've been getting a bit bored staying here at Tempest all the time, sure the food is great, the people are great, especially that Gabiru guy, his attempts at winning Raiden over are hilarious, but I think it's time to leave for a bit soon. 

I can also use this time to do some investigation in the background, maybe I can find a clue on who is behind all these schemes.

And so I left.

____________________________________________________________________

It's been a few months since I left Tempest. I had both Raiden and Saeko stay behind, I told them they were free to go out on an adventure of their own if they wanted, but they both ended up staying there in order to train and to wait for me.

I ended up going out in my female form, best to hide my identity in case the hidden mastermind does something.

I first started off by visiting Carrion's kingdom, he invited me over the last time we sparred and I'm a bit curious about his country.

Once I arrived there Carrion welcomed me with open arms, he apparently just ignored my female form. The country itself is basically just a city, but there is a lot of territory around where the low-class citizens reside.

The country is the definition of might makes right, the weaker people aren't allowed into the capital city and have to live in villages outside of it, they pay taxes for the protection of the Beast Kingdom.

Inside the city is where the so called higher-class citizens reside, a total of 3 million people live inside the capital city and enjoy numerous benefits due to their strength.

That isn't something I particularly approve of, but it seems to be the norm in this world, in a world where no beings are truly equal, there will always be inequality among them. Of course when someone can easily wipe a city out, people will want to keep them happy. Hell, that's the reason I was welcomed here so easily, I'm strong enough to have earned their respect.

Hell, one of Carrion's direct subordinates, Suphia, I think her name was asked me for a spar almost everyday. I didn't see the issue seeing as I barely had to try to defeat her.

It was entertaining seeing her grow slightly stronger day after day, I look forward to seeing how strong she will become the next time we meet.

The food in Carrion's country wasn't comparable to Tempest, but still for a medieval world it was quite good.

There was one thing I really enjoyed, there were some special fruits located in Carrions country that were pleasant to eat, not even Tempest had them so I took a bunch with me.

His army is also quite impressive, there is a reason that his kingdom is feared for its army.

I ended up staying in his country for a week or so before I left.

I planned to head to Milim's Domain but she told me not to, apparently she is super busy with, as she called it, Demon Lord Business.

Now Milim being responsible was something new to me, so I left her to it. Though I really hope she is in fact being responsible and not up to mischief. Knowing her it could be either.

I heard that Rimuru left a little while ago to go fulfill a promise to a friend of his, apparently he has to teach some kids.

He did have a question for me the very day he reached the Academy he was supposed to teach at.

He was in the Kingdom of Ingrassia at the time so normally, his Thought Communication wouldn't have been able to reach me, fortunately for him though, I was quite close to him at that time.
