Reborn as the Dragon King's Son-In-Law

"Master... I... I did it accidentally. I’m sorry! Please don’t pull my ears!" Sounds of pain started to come out of my mouth. The part next to my ear was now getting pinched by Elize. However, Elize was not at all happy when she saw her only disciple dare to practice magic secretly behind her back.

As a master, the actions taken by me were no different from challenging any of her orders. But that wasn’t one of the main reasons Elize was angry with me. On the contrary, she simply couldn’t stop herself from training me much more intensely.

The talent shown by me really stimulated Elize to train me much harder than in previous days. For some reason, my expression could only reveal a pleading look on my face. I also knew that there was no way for me to escape the harsh training that Elize had given me.

With that, both Elize and I had entered the depths of the forest again. The training that Elize wanted to give me finally started. Every minute and every hour, I endlessly studied how to cast magic properly.

"The way you used your mana earlier was very good. But it wasted too much of your mana. Therefore, I will teach you how you can use magic more efficiently without having to spend so much mana."

My expression could only reveal my tired face. With me endlessly channeling all the mana out of my body, cold temperatures began to sweep across the area.

Elize’s gaze turned sharp. Elize’s two hands were now on my shoulders. The moment I was completely lost in my panic, a stream of mana from Elize flowed and entered my body.

The flow of mana that Elize gave me slightly made me understand a lot about magic power. This is an effective method for a master to teach their disciples how to use magic efficiently. Even though Elize thought I was great at casting ice magic before, she still thought I was no different from a beginner.

Previously, I didn’t think much about the words from Elize, who tried to teach me how to use mana much more efficiently. But it now makes me understand. Even though I have above-average combat strength, even in terms of magic power, my endurance in controlling the flow of mana is no different from a kid who has just cast their magic spell.

If it weren’t because I was much stronger than I was before, there was no way I would be able to maintain my consciousness after casting an ice domain that could cover an area of 100 meters. Therefore, Elize realized that my mana was much greater than the average man my age.

"Don’t divert your focus! Hurry up and learn how I channel my mana into your body. You’d better follow your master’s instructions. If not, I’m afraid you will die and experience mana syndrome."

I subconsciously gritted my teeth. My hearing couldn’t hear what Elize was saying to me at all. Instead, I endlessly tried to remember how mana had previously entered my body.

A slightly strange expression appeared on Elize’s face. The flow of mana in my body that was previously chaotic had now turned calm. Every time Elize saw me improving, she couldn’t hold back her satisfied expression.

Actually, Elize no longer guided me with the power of her mana. But I didn’t realize what was happening at all. Both Elize and I didn’t want to disturb each other. Ignoring her disciple who was still deep in meditation, Elize decided to leave and return to her residence.

Elize had nothing to worry about as long as I was still in her territory. There would be no one in the kingdom who could break in and destroy the defenses of the forest. Even if they were a Dragon Emperor, they would still have to try harder to break the barrier created by Elize.

"Good luck, Lucien. This is also for your lover. I hope you can win against the young master of the Vermillion family in the future."

Time passed; day after day went by. I endlessly cast my magic far beyond my physical training. Even so, the upgrade of the system was still not completely over. Maybe that’s also the reason why I could only see the progress of my current statistics.

My stats had also increased slightly. But that was only a small improvement. Unfortunately, my strength still hadn’t fully reached the Great Dragon stage. I had asked Elize about this matter, but she only said that I needed more time to reach the Great Dragon stage.

I’m not disappointed. Either way, I will sooner or later touch my threshold and break through to the Great Dragon stage. For now, I can feel that the wall of reaching the Great Dragon stage is right in front of me.

The only thing I have to do now is train non-stop and then increase my strength. My speed in breaking through the High Dragon stage was also one of the fastest among those who had just started their path of training. Therefore, I wasn’t too disappointed with myself for experiencing a bottleneck in breaking through to the Great Dragon stage.
