[Battle Frenzy (Minor)] inflicted on [Young Sunfang Dragon, Hestia Atsuko Kargryxmor]
Deep breaths, deep breaths. Calm down my heart as best as possible. Need to get better at this. Better control if I want to prevent becoming alone one day.
My triple-colored flas were swirling around like a slow twister. I had my eyes closed, but I could feel their warmth swirling around . But, at the sa ti, I felt sothing pulsating through my veins and arteries. Energy, but also a primal desire for battle.
Yup, this was [Battle Frenzy] alright.
In the past, seeing this annoying abnormal status effect would have probably scared , seeing as I could lose control and just hurt people around . It happened once, no, thrice, where I simply lost full control of my body.
The first and second tis, I lost complete control of myself and had to resort to my parallel minds to recover my lost mory. Those monts were after we finally left the Belzac forest and after Shiterno granted his blessing. The third ti was during the Griffonpeak attack, but I guessed I had matured enough to not lose consciousness there. Or, even worse, my greed, or wrath, to kill that demonkin wanted to see him disappear before my very eyes.
The first signs of wanting vengeance for Eshes death. Accepted and noted. But now, even thinking of the Yanderu Elusseuss or Eithalr made angry. Revenge plots sure sucked ass.
As such, I needed to get stronger.
Kramps, Mother, and Neill already taught the basics of my bloodlines power and also how to fight like a dragon. The foundation was set, you could say. Now, it was ti I developed them properly.
And the next step for was to pass the Lust stage of the [Battle Frenzy] training.
And, cool down. Upon command, cold, shivering air enveloped my body, forcibly slowing down my heart rate to the point I could deactivate [Battle Frenzy] without any delays. With the training over, the flas around my body and the white highlights in my hair disappeared.
Once again, such a short ditation session? I groaned in dissatisfaction, wanting to train just a bit longer.
Jeez, youre too impatient. This is a long process, as I said. Sis shook her head, looking annoyed at my comnt. Yes, you can finally use [Battle Frenzy] but its only the minor stage. The purpose of you gradually getting used to using that rage in our blood is to prepare you for Lust. You wont advance to moderate, no; Im helping you prepare yourself from embracing the hedonist inside you.
Since I knew KleaHatma, the archdemon of lust, I knew full well what lust actually ant. The ultimate hedonist, to release every bit of your desire into the world to claim it all. It wasnt like gluttony or greed, which were need and want respectively, but stimulation of your senses until you couldnt take anymore. Full depravity, where you would act on any sort of whim, making you more like a wild card.
It is about fulfillnt.
At least, that was what I understood from KleaHatmas and Kramps description of the differences between the trifecta of desires: gluttony, lust, and greed.
I agree! I needed more ti! Running towards us from the side, Rita in her humanized form looked at us with glistening eyes, holding onto her wooden slate. You barely do your ditation practices! This is the first ti I get to watch a whole session! I still need to docunt how all this even works with your blood and
Its final! Neill shouted at both of us. Haaa, Tasianna, I could really use so tea right now.
My apologies, Lady Fargryneill, but I still need to warm up the water. Tasianna smiled wryly, pointing at our outdoor tea cooking setup, using my catalyst to heat up the water. Maybe I should have taken up Murainas offer to use the guilds kitchen. Well, whats done is done. It should be ready in a mont.
Ha, maybe you're the impatient one, Neill. She just cooled down, give her so ti, I joked, causing Neill to shrug before helping up.
We were currently in the mages guilds grounds in Griffonpeak, specifically at the training field they reserved for their university students. Mostly cause the ones next to the guilds building were preoccupied with other students. I kinda forgot how the guild had a whole plateau all for themselves and their university on Wintertalon mountain the geographic location which gave Griffonpeak its na.
But, we werent exactly here to make a spectacle of ourselves while I trained [Battle Frenzy]. Honestly, I would have preferred it if a crowd of mages and uni students was literally looking at us with stunned faces, as if we were so celebrities. Sure, everybody in Griffonpeak knew of already but I havent even told Muraina Neill was my sister.
We were only here to pick up my [Crystal of the Divine System], but then Muraina, the Griffonpeak mages guildmaster, told us we had to wait due to so complications. She didnt seem nervous or anything, so I said it was fine. To pass the ti, Neill suggested we continued my training, so I obliged.
Gathering all these people around us was just an annoying coincidence.
In any case, a couple of minutes later, after Tasianna finished our tea, Murainas attendant inford us everything was ready and we could finally pick it up. Our group today was a bit more barebones than usual, only having Tasianna, Neill, and Rita with us. The others were still in Elyonda, either sunbathing or looking into any problems.
I wanted to join the latter group, but I had so pretty important things to do in Artorias today. Good thing my match today was pretty lackluster, leaving enough energy for what was to co after our visit here.
Welco back, Lady Hestia. I do really, really apologize for sending you away, Muraina, a noble lady from the Empire and Aleistunum mage, greeted us as we entered the building, looking a bit wearier than before. I had so things to handle, and also Lady Thyra asked to wait before handing you the crystal.
Konnichiwa~ Standing next to Muraina was my friend Thyra, waving her hand, instead of bowing. She spoke in Japanese, but it seed Muraina didnt react to it, aning she was using it so often nobody really minded it.
Thyra? Hold on, youre the director of the royal academy, why are you here? The school day shouldnt be over yet, I asked her, surprised at her sudden appearance.
Well, you dont co over too often. We barely ever have the chance for so tea, with how youre roaming the world, doing good, Thyra argued, making question if I really was doing enough good to get such praise. My bad luck usually ruined things. Besides, Lady Muraina ntioned you had new companions following you! A human, and a dragonewt with black and purple scales. Ehe.
Ah, my na is Rita! Im not much of a mage, but I do very much love docunting events and information! Knowledge of the unknown guides us, eheh. Rita made a pretty good impression on the two Istari followers, earning her a warm welco before both drew their eyes to my sister.
Neill had a deadpan expression, shrugging her shoulders. With an exasperated voice, she spoke, Fargryneill. Think whatever you want of . Honestly, Hestia, you broke so many unnad rules for the Adulthood Pilgrimage, you should be lucky you arent on one, right now.
Whos supposed to punish , anyways? Neill waved her hand in dismissal, not replying. Instead, I smiled and shrugged my own shoulders. Well, its always good to see you, Thyra, but if this is about teaching at the academy, Im rejecting it once again. I dont have much ti until I have to go to the palace.
Oh, dont worry. We already managed to hire a certified Aleistunum fire mage, who probably wont be a problem seeing as he preaches more about Goddess Crustacia than doing his lessons. Complaints aplenty, but no threat to our students.
I showed her a thumbs up, finding the image of a teacher giving a sermon during a fire magic lesson oddly interesting, but also unpleasant. If you were a follower of Danterno, the last you would want to do was listen to sobody preaching about another god. It sounded better than the last fire professor they had, though, who was such a Danterno zealot he egged a student into killing a noble, which caused his downfall into banditry.
With the pleasantries over, Muraina invited us all into her office. Seeing as this was a pretty costly transaction, we had to confirm everything was correct with the object. Wouldnt want to use the crystal during a dungeon dive, only to find it didnt work, right?
Hmm? When we entered the room, I noticed there was a near-empty cup of tea on the guest table, in addition to a crystal slate held up by small keyboard-like legs. Uhm, is that yours? It looks interesting
Huh? O-Oh, how embarrassing. Muraina clutched her head as she looked at the small ss on the table in exhaustion, before telling her attendant to clean it up and bring so fresh tea for everybody. It was business. The reason why I had you wait. Mhrm, if you want, you may appraise it. Certainly saves ti to explain it.
Lady Muraina, please, you should at least act a bit more involved in all of this. Stress or not, you are eting with a princess. Then again, if you dont mind, then I wouldnt say no to this chance to see how this [Transmission Slate] works.
Transmission Slate?
Oooh, ooh! Do you an, this is the slate the technology guild of Aleistunums capital has been developing? I heard it wasnt even close to being finished yet! Rita expressed, being giddy with Thyra.
It shouldnt be! This has to be a prototype or sothing. The dwarves of Ankor-Nazta might be the forerunner of the evolution of manatech, but the mages of Aleistunum lead the world in the advancent of spells, enchantnts, and alchemy!
Certainly putting them on a pedestal there. Mana Eyes.
Transmission Slate
An enchanted magic item used to transmit long-distance information to another transmission slate or crystal by displaying words written with mana.
Enchantnts: [Long-Range Mana Transfer] [Vessel Acquisition: Water] [Vessel Acquisition: Wind]
Words? So, it cant transmit images, huh? Kinda curious what Muraina talked about, but thats none of my business. Hmm?
After appraising the item, I looked back up, ready to sit down, only for Thyra and Muraina to look at with anticipation, whereas Rita was completely engrossed by the object. Looking over at Rita, who had already sat down, and Tasianna, all they could do was shrug to my confusion.
Uh, did I do sothing wrong? I asked.
Nothing. We are just curious what your opinion on it is, Lady Hestia, Muraina egged onto sothing, but I wasnt sure what she ant.
Opinion? Well, I would like to see how it works but that is about it.
Thyra raised an eyebrow at my reply. Do you have no idea on how to improve it? I thought you would, considering your inventive nature. You were the one to create such an impressive feat of the arcane by creating your [Room] and also a teleportation thod using those runes!
Just because I had an idea on how to make sothing doesnt an I can figure out new things like a genius! I create things I need, and that demands ti! From culinary to custom spells to my concert plans, everything required ti, which was why my schedule was always filled to the brim. Even making my grenades required to take so ti to do them, as I couldnt mass-produce hundreds in a few hours.
Here! Muraina gestured for to sit next to her for a mont, preparing to write sothing on the slate. As those two ntioned, Aleistunum has been trying to create a new thod for long-distance communication, as manatech birds leaves a lot to be desired in that aspect. It could break down during the trip, leaving both parties unaware. This is why we need this to work. It could revolutionize communication for the whole world! Imagine being able to speak with an acquaintance on the other side of the continent!
Sounds like a job for space-ti. It would make everything easier that way, I mindlessly comnted, only for Neill, of all people, to chi in.
I dont think that is feasible, Hestia. Dont forget, void-touched people are rare, and if Aleistunum had such a mage, they wouldnt be having any problems at all thinking of such a thod. However, if sothing like that were to work, I could imagine it being pretty useful for all sorts of things.
Yes, that is correct, Lady Fargryneill! Thyra agreed, irritating Neill as it seed those two could already guess Neill was my sister. The black scales being iconic for a Kargryxmor dragon were too easy to deduce. It also didnt help that we were acting pretty close.
We cant rely on space-ti magic, or would you want to help us create possibly thousands of these items, Lady Hestia? Muraina asked with a smirk, to which I shook my hand. With a chuckle she then began to write on the slate with her mana pen. Words written on this slate stay on them unless we erase or send them out. Once I am finished, I pour my mana into it, activating the enchantnts inside.
The slate shone blue for a second before the words I am testing its function slowly dissipated into the air, disappearing completely from us. After what seed like two minutes, a ssage ca, saying -aina, ansut the drago
Drago? I eyed Muraina with suspicion.
She waved her hand, trying to make it seem like she wasnt at fault. You are becoming known, Lady Hestia. I didnt ntion you anywhere, but they probably assud the crystal would be for you. After all, you are a registered mber of the guild, correct? Anybody can see your docunts.
I guess that is correct.
Pfft! Neill let out a short chortle before slapping her face, shaking her head in disappointnt. I didnt need to read her mind to know she was thinking you show your information to everybody, readily.
Aleistunum is curious about this new Kargryxmor, you see? Muraina stated, making think she was talking about just a mont ago with so mage. But, it is nothing you must worry about. However, youve seen how it works now. How do you find it?
She pointed at the slate with the sentence and its unfinished words. There were hints of mana alluding to them, but the letters were broken up like ancient text. I could see why this thing was a prototype. Despite the speed the ssage was delivered considering the person on the other side must be in Aleistunum, which was two countries away from Artorias the ssages sent were inaccurate.
This would make it hard to get detailed ssages, but its fast, I relayed my feedback to her.
Fast indeed, but as you could read from the enchantnts, it transmits the words written through both the air and water, in this case the water droplets in the air. If we were to use it in a dry area like the great Evida desert, it wouldnt work at all. I nodded to her assessnt, agreeing with such a weakness. The researchers also made one that uses both air and light as the vessel of transportation, but not only is it extrely slow during the night but the ssages are even harder to decipher. The moonlight isnt enough.
They really gave it so thought, huh?
What about using dungeon core shards? Considering what you can do with a [Crystal of the Divine System] and how System ssages are a constant companion to all of us, it should be possible, no? I suggested, but Muraina shook her head.
The cost would be ludicrous, Lady Hestia. You will know once you read the receipt.
Oh thats right, Miss Saori did tell sothing about it when she made the commission, Tasianna spoke up. She told she almost fainted after she read the full price and even felt like puking while signing the contract.
Urgh! I flinched back, stunned by the implications. Healing Saori reacting so badly to the cost was horrifying , anxious what the cost would be.
I-In any case, as I said, I cant think of any improvents for your inventions just like that. If you want my help, then please compensate like any normal mage, I told Muraina, who nodded and said Of course.
Although interesting, I still found it not as important to talk to for now. Besides, I didnt know much about how Earths phones and radio really worked. I had so knowledge, but not enough to translate those ideas into Peolyncas magic system. At the very least, I had to ask sobody tech-savvy like Daichi to explain these things to first before I could do anything.
With that out of the way, we all cald down and took our seats. Murainas attendants brought in tea for everybody while she readied the contract, receipt, and also the item in question. She showed us an ornanted chest, sothing you would put your most prized jewelry in, before opening it, revealing a pearl-like crystal ball sitting on a red cushion.
Oooh!
Crystal of the Divine System
An alchemical item created by lting a dungeon core into a condensed crystalline ball of mana. By performing a ritual in dedication to all six Origin Gods, this item is once again granted its Divine System functions to be used as a service.
Services offered: Job System, Tar System, Quest creation
Woah. Tasianna and I stared at the crystal.
Hiehie, I am glad you like it, Lady Hestia. The wait must have been worth it, Muraina stated and we nodded. This is still a newly made crystal, so the three functions you see it has are the base ones every crystal starts with. If you wish to add additional functions, like ID creation, you will have to speak with the necessary officials. By linking your crystal to another one, you can obtain these services.
I nodded, glad to hear I could have more things to do on this thing. After all, Aurora was finally rich enough to get our own Job changing machine! We could finally grind without worrying about paying money or even ending our trip earlier than we wanted!
Go on, try it. Make sure it works, Lady Hestia, Muraina offered and I took it imdiately.
Rubbing my hands at getting a new toy, I placed my hands on the crystal. Mana poured out from my hands as I asked it to open the Job panel. Glowing for a mont, in the next, a blue panel appeared before , displaying all my available Jobs.

Ooooh! Nice! I clapped my hands in excitent, taking in the joy of the item working! It functions exactly as any other crystal I used up till this point.
Oh, look there, your dal for taking the first step into [Battle Frenzy]: [Hatchling Tyrant], Neill pointed out, tapping on the Job in question.
True! But where is my [Dragoon] Job? Ive been training with my glaive for a long ti now, where is it? I felt exasperated, as if my efforts werent being rewarded.
You do know dragoons are knights, right? Just like the [Knight] Job, you need to get knighted first. Neills truth hurt even further!
But, still
Job: Hatchling Tyrant
Requirents: Bloodline of Kargryxmor, the Black Tyrant of the Skies, Path of Gluttony Unlocked, [Territory Release], [Scale Manipulation]
Acquisition Benefits: All Stats Increase, All draconic racial skills proficiency
Main Job Benefits: [Tyrants Aura Lv. 10] [All-Damage Enhancent Lv. 5]
All? Like in everything that can be considered racial skills? Hold on, isnt that stupidly broken?!
From a single Job, I would be able to gain quite a lot of power if it could help level up those very draconic skills. If we exclude [White Flas] and [Corrosive Fire], since they were made from Shiternos influence, taking this Job now would benefit six skills in total. That alone would be better than most Jobs.
As such the question was if I should take it now or wait for later? Very likely, I would be able to gain more racial skills once I evolved into an A rank. In addition to that, they would most likely be even harder to level up if I wasnt scared to use my skill points. Aside from certain skills Aurena had blocked, I could level up most of my draconic skills. It was just that I preferred using SP reactively, instead of proactively as using them during a fight could turn the tides in a matter of seconds.
And there was also another problem that stopped from actually looking at this as an investnt for the future. The incoming battle and also how I needed to fulfill certain requirents to evolve into an A rank. Aside from age, the others were to reach level ten in [Dreadfla Dragon], [Hellblade Dragon], [Solar Core], and [Royal Presence].
Not only did this Job have two pretty useful Job skills in [Tyrant Aura Lv. 10] and [All-Damage Enhancent Lv. 5], increasing my power even further, there was also a clear lack of advanced Jobs for [Crimson-Scaled Dreadgiver], [Infernal Hellblade], Incandescent Blaze], and [Virulent Corrosion]. It seed I had reached the peak for them after gaining the ability to buy the mutation skills.
Considering the situation, I should probably also consider these Jobs now.

Heavenly Performance
An idols voice and body are their most prized possession during a performance for the world to hear and see! The art itself is reward enough!
Hello? Scamd? What is the skills effects? Hello? Aurena? What?
It was clear this was another skill Aurena had personally made just for , and it showed as so of that joking side of hers showed in the description. What exactly did this skill do? I really had no idea and it really made want to take the Job just to know!
Well, sadly, I can only take one more Job this week, since I already spent two usages for [Worker] and [Scout]. I didnt know if sothing would happen this week, since my tournant matches were over. Tomorrow was just a rest day and also my concert, so maybe taking [Idol] would be good?
Then again, who knew when those grimgarians would attack? We didnt know anything and it felt like we were on the backpedal cause of that. A lack of information for an impending siege or assault felt scary It was so much better when we knew when the enemy would attack in Estralia, so we all managed to set up plenty of traps, to the point they were only able to survive cause of that walking plot armor Warbringer of Wrath.
Hmm, what should I take? For combat, [Hatchling Tyrant] and [Champion of Aurena] seem like the best, just because they can increase my skills. [Crimson Saintess] is cringe. I dont want a title like that Lastly, [Idol] seems like a pure supportive Job.
But, there really is no question which one I should take.
I will take [Champion of Aurena] as my Main Job.
I was her Champion, and had to finally signify this to the world.
Individual [Sunfang Dragonewt, Hestia Atsuko Kargryxmor] has switched her Main Job to [Champion of Aurena]

Spell gained: [Heavens Sword]
Puuhaaaaa! I nearly choked on my own spit. LEVEL 50?!
The higher a Jobs max level, the more advanced it was. That ant, it required more experience per level, similar to how leveling up as a B rank was faaaaar harder than during my ti as a C rank. But at the sa ti, it required to get 50 levels to max it?! How did I get myself into this?!
When I explained my shock to everybody, all of them except for Tasianna and Rita could only shrug to my plight. They told this was normal for experienced adventurers. The more advanced a Job, the more benefits it gave with every level, but as it demanded a lot of experience to grow it, it pushed people to take on harder Quests to challenge themselves.
Still, I couldnt really say I regret taking it. It would just turn into a long term training plan. Besides, it level up my [Sacred Magic] so I could finally use another high tier sacred spell! [Heavens Sword]; it sounds exactly what you would expect from a fantasy ga.
I have the power of God and Ani on my side now! In a sense.
Marvelous! Muraina clapped her hands. It is great that it is working well. Aleistunum certified quality! However, if it does sohow act out of order, you will have a three months warranty on any issues not intentionally done to it! The guild will fix it themselves.
And now it was ti. The fun part was over, now it was ti for the money thing, but honestly, Saori usually overreacted whenever it ca to our finances. She was a penny pincher, for good reason, but still pretty frugal. It was without a doubt expensive, but it probably wasnt so much anyways.
Here you go. Muraina handed the contract and recipe with a smile. Saori and Ellaine already looked over the contract itself, and the one you got is the very sa one. You will only have to sign it to state the item has been safely delivered to you. Please, make sure everything is correct.
Alright!
Okay, lets go parallel minds. Blah blah blah, Aleistunum commission, blah blah blah. Mhm, dungeon core shards, crystal, money, and mages guild. Muraina and Aurora Yeah. Seems alright, I guess?
I gave the contract a quick look over using my parallel minds, finding this thing actually pretty hard to read. Actually, it was as difficult as the papers I signed during the conference I had with King Drangleic and the Dukes. Jeez, one year of living in this world wasnt enough to fully learn this damn language.
Okay, receipt. Lets see O-Oh okay, two small goldite coins just for the mages guild alone? What? Why is Hold on, five LARGE SILVITES FOR THE TRANSPORTATION OF THE DUNGEON SHARDS?! Thats 50k Davi just to transport those stupid shards?! What Okay, okay, just calm down.
I took a deep breath.
Alright, alright, they did say this is expensive, but it cant get TWO LARGE GOLDITES FOR THE STUPID ALCHEMIST! Wh-What?! T-T-Two million davi, gone like that?! No, you gotte be kidding ! This is just the third field. How much does this crap cost anyways?! Da fu
My face froze up, eyes staring down on the two digit words with both trepidation and hollowness. My mouth was agape, slightly trembling as I pushed myself to read the number.
2 2
26 Large goldites, two small goldites, and two large silvites.
26,220,000 Davi.
Cuek!
Boom.
Lady Hestia!
S-Sis?!
The straw that broke the cals back. Just seeing the price itself was enough to knock out. I fainted with my eyes open, at least allowing my parallel minds to see what was going on.
Yup, and I kinda want to fall down, too, Manager Mind comnted, looking pale and sick. Thats 81% of our total money. Not to ntion, we had to pay about 3% of our total funds for sothing at the pier yesterday. Thats 84% of our Davi gone, just like that. Gone, Poof I want to puke.
Oi, what have you done to my sister?! In the anti while my body was kinda unconscious, Neill shot up from her seat, black flas around her fist as she threatened Thyra and Muraina.
W-Wait, hold on! We didnt do anything, Princess Fargryneill! Thyra tried to calm her in a panic. There is a reason why people borrow crystals and dont just straight up buy them! Especially if they have to buy the shards themselves. Read the receipt!
Oh, really? Huh? Do you really think I would believe sothing like that? Huh? If this is so sorta trap then Ill 26 LARGE GOLDITES! Cueeeek! Neill almost reeled back, but managed to compose herself. T-T-Thats an entire fortune! Enough to cover up a small to dium sized cavern in gold! H-How can you Cuek! Urghk!
Boom.
Another dragon defeated.
Oh dear. Tasianna mumbled.
And that was how I learned the real reason why people had to borrow these things. Even if organizations like the adventurers or mages guild could afford to buy crystals for their individual guilds, it was less expensive to just borrow them from rich mages.
This was the reason. You could beco bankrupt pretty easily.
I didnt know how long I was actually unconscious, but it was still long enough for everybody to get worried. In the end, with tears in my eyes, I signed the contract and acquired the crystal.
Bam, bam, baaaaaaam Yay, happy acquisition music. Oh goodness
As planned, I also spent so more money to buy manatech tablets, used by attendants to note down information for their masters. I bought two with one manatech pen. One tablet was for Tasianna, while the tablet and pen duo was for master. In total, it cost 5% of our money.
90%. Gone. Poof. We were rich at the start of this morning, now, we would have to build it up again. I honestly hoped Alias shop will have a ton of success so we can earn this money back.
In the future, I need to have Tasianna and Ellaine create these stuff. Would save us so much money.
