Under the house basement, there was a big room with the size of the four basketball courts. The walls, including the ceiling and floor, were all metal. The room was very strong as it could absorb the shockwaves. Moreover, this place was soundproofed.

Lucien cracked his knuckles loudly and picked up a wooden spear in the corner. He then pressed the hidden switch. The wall spread apart, revealing the long rows of weapons. There were both wooden weapons for training and the real ones.

"Which one do you want, Uncle Richard?" asked Lucien.

"Nah, I usually use my fists. I don't need any weapons."

Seeing Richard flexing his muscles again, Lucien rolled his eyes at him.

“I won’t use my weapon then,” said Lucien.

“Don’t underestimate me, my nephew. Pick up your weapon,” grinned Richard.

“It’s fine, uncle. My body is very strong, you know?” Shrugging his shoulders, Lucien smiled carefreely.

Bang!

With a loud bang, Richard appeared in front of Lucien in the blink of an eye. His large fist was only a few centimeters from Lucien’s nose. A cold glint flashed across his eyes as Richard said once more, “Pick up your weapon, Lucien.”

Lucien gulped unconsciously. He could see that the place where his uncle was standing before was only left with a deep footprint. Yes, his uncle bent the metal just from charging. Lucien’s eyes finally turned serious.

Although there were so many questions in his head right now, like how could Richard have this much strength and speed as a normal person, Lucien chose to suppress his curiosity for now.

‘I’ve become too arrogant. I need to be more careful in the future.’

After reprimanding himself, Lucien picked up the spear and held it tightly. Listing his head up, he could see Richard standing 25 meters before him.

“Your dad told me you can control the wind. And from the clip of you in Okinawa, it seems you have more than one power, right?” asked Richard who was punching the air, making a loud noise.

“Right,” Lucien didn’t bother to explain the skill and status in detail so he let his uncle think as he liked.

“But you know what, Lucien. I can be considered to have more than one power too!” shouted Richard as he vanished with a stomp of his foot.

Bam!

Lucien widened his eyes in shock as he quickly turned around and thrust his spear.

Crack!

The tip of his spear was disintegrated into wood fragments once it collided with Richard’s fist. His hands also shook uncontrollably.

‘What? Vibration!?’

Lucien could only exclaim in his mind as he dodged another fist aiming at his head and fell back.

“Wait-”

Without giving him time to rest, Richard charged at him with an incredible speed. Lucien blocked the incoming fist with the shaft of his spear but it broke into pieces instead.

At least, it lowered the momentum of the attack a bit. Lucien threw the two wooden sticks in his hands away and started to counter-attack with his bare fists.

Richard grinned as he dodged Lucien’s attack with ease. It wasn’t that he was faster nor having more strength than Lucien. In reality, Lucien’s stats could overwhelm anyone in the world.

However, in front of Richard, who had been fighting for tens of years, he was like a cute baby.

Richard put his hands behind his back and let Lucien attacked him freely. Still, he skillfully dodged all Lucien’s barraging attacks.

“Your hand-to-hand combat is very bad! You look absolutely like a newbie,” mocked Richard. Well, he really meant what he said though.

As Alicia only taught him spearmanship, Lucien’s hand-to-hand combat was the worst. Although he could overwhelm normal people with his fists as he had high stats, his skill was a child-play before an expert.

“Hah..,” sighed Lucien. “I really should improve my hand-to-hand skill.”

‘Holy Feather of Spear Immunity.”

With a thought, numerous shining feathers and a spear formed around him. As long as he controlled his strength, his light spear wouldn’t pierce his uncle. He only needed a durable spear to wield.

Lucien’s eyes glowed a golden light as he leaped toward Richard. The spear in his hand was thrust at a blurring speed, powered by Wind Reinforcement and Bliss Severing.

The tip of the spear cut through the air, producing a whooshing sound.

Still, Richard barely dodged the blow, which was faster than a bullet speed, by a small margin.

Bam!

The metallic wall was holed deeply by the spear.

‘Damn! What’s with that reaction!’

Being shocked by his uncle’s inhumane reaction, Lucien couldn’t dodge the kick.

Clank! Clank!

Two feathers were broken as Lucien was blown away. Moreover, the kick also contained a strong vibration effect, cracking several feathers around him.

“Ugh,” groaned Lucien as his back crashed into the wall.

This was the first time Lucien fought someone who used their own body as a weapon combat and an expert at that. He panted and sweated all over.

It wasn’t that he couldn’t win the fight. If he wanted, he could just casted Celestial Locking Spear and one shot the guy. He believed that his high stats could accomplish the deed.

But what if after Richard got the system in the future? Lucien wouldn’t be able to do anything.

He didn’t want to rely much on the cheat skills he got from Alicia as it would hinder his growth. Alicia also warned him about it.

‘Aside from vibration, his another power should be reinforcement-related,’ thought Lucien calmly. Then, he shook his head. ‘No, it might not be the power from awakening. He is too familiar with it… like he had been using this power for years…’

Gritting his teeth, Lucien charged forward once more. With the light spear in his hand, he fully displayed the spearmanship he had been learning from Alicia for years.

“Hoh,” Richard grinned as he caught the blade with his bare hand. Seeing the blood was seeping out from his palm, he couldn’t help but exclaim in his heart.

It had been years since he last shredded his blood as normal blades and bullets couldn’t pierce through his skin.

Being fueled by his magic power, Lucien’s light spear could deal both physical and magical damage. Physical protection couldn’t block his spear.

Lucien smiled a bit seeing that his spear could harm the monster in front of him. Like a storm, all his attacks were fast and sharp. Even Richard had a hard time keeping up with his speed.

After half an hour, Lucien lied on the ground with bruises all over his body. Some of his bones were broken as well.

‘Damn it, I’m fine losing to Alicia as she is an angel but how can I lose to my uncle as well!?’

“Your spearmanship is very good however you still lack experience in real combat, you know?” said Richard who was sitting next to him.

Richard wasn’t unscathed either as numerous tiny wounds and cuts could be seen all over his body. Still, he was in a much better shape than Lucien as he didn’t seem to be exhausted like him.

“Who taught you spear, Lucien?” Richard was interested.

“It was Alicia. She’s still teaching me though,” answered Lucien. ‘If all those beating are counted…’

“Alicia? Isn’t she your girlfriend?”

“Right, she is both my girlfriend and master.”

“Ho ho, my nephew, to think that little boy from before turns out to have such a unique taste!” laughed Richard.

“...”

“Quickly ask her to come down then, Lucien. I would like to have a spar with her.”

“Erm, are you sure, uncle? She is very strong! You won’t be able to defeat her.”

“Hey, my nephew, Lucien, Your uncle has never lost to anyone before!”

“Alright,” said Lucien. ‘Since my dear uncle wants a beating so much, I won’t stop him.’

He then called Alicia to come down.

After a few minutes, she arrived at the training room. She asked him curiously, “What’s wrong, Lulu?”

“My lord wife, my uncle wants to have a spar with you,” explained Lucien, pointing at his uncle.

“That’s right!” Richard stood up and started flexing his muscles, showing his fighting spirit. “By the way, you really respect your girlfriend, huh?”

Alicia frowned a bit and looked at her Lulu. He should have already known her strength, so why didn’t he stop his uncle.

Seeing her confusion, Lucien smiled, “Make it fast and clean, lord wife. Take a revenge for me.”

“Oh, Lulu, you’re beaten!?” exclaimed Alicia in shock. She was already used to Lucien’s beaten figure that she didn’t realize it from the start.

Lucien could only laugh dryly at his ‘caring’ girlfriend.

Alicia became angry at Richard who beat her boyfriend. With an angry but cute face, she took out a wooden spear and shouted at him, “Come!”

Lucien sat up straight to see the fight. As he already knew the outcome, he only wanted to see his uncle getting trashed.

Richard cracked his shoulders and laughed loudly as he threw a punch at Alicia.

Bang!

As Lucien expected, the outcome was decided in one exchange. Richard’s huge frame was struck deep into the metal wall. Blood poured out from all over his body. However, he was still conscious. He was shocked speechless that he couldn’t open his mouth.

Thankfully, Alicia had controlled her strength well so he didn’t end up dead.

“How was it, Lulu!? Did I do a great job!?” Alicia smiled and came over to him.

“That was refreshing, my cute wife!” said Lucien as he pulled her cheeks teasingly.

“Ahehe, you are also cute too, Lulu!”
