ch 17. Another Family Meeting

Brightblade Palace

Timothy is sitting in the dining room together with his family. Both his brother and the three sisters were there with him. Timothy's father, Arthur Brightblade, is sitting at one corner of the table. While on the other corner of the table is a female with a look that was comparable to a battle Valkyrie. beautiful but fierce, even when she is sitting calm in the dining room. That woman is Timothy's mother, Thereshya Brightblade.

Thereshya Brightblade, or formerly known as Thereshya Flescutter, is a warrior beyond compare. Her battle achievements span from war hero to infiltration specialist. She looks stunning, with no part of her body that can be called 'too much'. among the warriors of her rank, she was a goddess.

For most, she is also known as a brute, who chooses violence first before talk. Her problem solving method is to begin by punching people, then ask them what the problem. Thereshya said to herself that she'd better talk with a battered dragon rather than a healthy calf. That is until Arthur came into her life.

Back then, Arthur, along with Ruthra hidden inside him, had just started his journey to fame. They win many battles and conquer many Danger Zone. until one day, Arthur and Thereshya's paths crossed and their fists started to talk. Arthur single handed deals with Thereshya's brute temperament, with a little help from Ruthra.

Their relationship started as a rival and enemy but ended with love and care. They get married and Thereshya becomes the Queen of the Brightblade Family. Thereshya soon became pregnant and, as time flies, they already have six children.

Despite being a Queen, Thereshya didn't forget her training and duty as a warrior. She still takes missions to infiltrate or war somewhere. Since she is only burdened by the title and not the duty, Thereshya becomes quite free and often spends her time away from the palace doing her own duty and task.

*****

Today is a special day.

Timothy has informed his family that he has cleared his final test successfully and is only waiting for graduation that he will be informed soon. He also informed his family that he is now a full fledged Weapon User with a Magic Soul Weapon.

They were all happy for him, giving him congratulations and good wishes. His father, Arthur, and his mentor, Ruthra, also give their congratulations. It shows how much Timothy is worth to them and how much they hope for him. from his mother, Timothy got a big warm strong hug along with a few loving words in the form of whisper.

After all the pleasantries are over, there is another good news. Timothy's younger brother, Fergie Brightblade, has succeeded in entering the same school with Timothy, Dragon Soul Special School. Everyone quickly congratulated Fergie and prayed for him. They had a big hope for Timothy, and now his younger brother also gives the family another big hope.

good news after good news is shared on that dining table. Everyone is smiling, including Thereshya. They also eat as much as they can, filling their stomach fully until they cannot eat any more. After the food, comes the snack while they all chat with one another. Timothy' father and mother asked him about his school. They want to know about the kind of training he got and how he deals with challenge.

Timothy also shared a few tips to easily train in school with Fergie. telling him the place to train alone in secret or a good place to eat. Timothy also didn't forget his other siblings who were still too young to enter the prestigious school. He encourages them and even offers to train them while he is in the palace.

After everyone is tired, they all decide to go back to their own room. Timothy's father and mother look so intimate with each other while they walk to their room. Timothy started to wonder about how his mother deal with both Arthur and Ruthra, who were basically the same person but with different personalities, but he quickly put that to the back of his mind.

Timothy now has one final task, which is to upgrade himself!

*****

Safe and comfortable in his room, Timothy summon his Soul Weapon to start his upgrade. First he asked for the status update and see what he needed to do.

Timothy's Human Mastery Level has reached one hundred percent and a little bit more. Timothy didn't understand how he could achieve an extra one percent, but Timothy didn't really think about it. As long as he can get stronger, a simple one percent extra is just a good bonus.

Timothy asked his Soul Weapon to show him the list of new skills he could get and soon enough, the list appeared in his mind.

Human Master Skill : - Mirage Dash (active) : moving fast in one direction while leaving an after image behind. The user's real body will be hidden / invisible when using the skill. (Req : Alpha White Fox Core) - Flash Charge (Active) : moving very fast in one direction while attacking anyone on the path. - Metal Body (Passive) : The user's body is constantly covered in a layer of protective energy. The body will give off a metallic gleam. - Brightblade Body (passive) : A user's body is conditioned to perform Brightblade Exclusive Skills better. - Phantasm Body (active) : A user's body is replaced by a mirror image. The user's real body is displaced and will be hidden/invisible (Req : Alpha White Fox Core)

Just like the last time, there are five skills to choose. Each with their own advantage. The new thing Timothy notices from the list is there are two of them that show requirements. Timothy didn't know if this was triggered by the Alpha White Fox Core in his pocket, or if this was a new thing that you can find the higher level you are.

From the available list, the two skills that require the core have similar effects with different purpose. The Mirage Dash will allow Timothy to approach his enemy safely, while the Phantasm Body will allow Timothy to escape from the attack safely.

Then there is a unique skill that comes with his family bloodline, the Brightblade Body. This skill is unique in the sense that it will allow Timothy to use his Brightblade skills better. Better damage, better control, better effect. His first skills can be much more powerful just by having this one skill.

Compared to the last two skills, which are quite normal, the other three skills look better. The stakes on the three skills are heavier and in return, Timothy got better results.

Timothy started to consider his skills, weighting which skills would be more useful for him compared to the others.

With a sigh, Timothy finally made his decision. Despite the powerful effects, Timothy didn't want to spend the core on his Human Mastery Skills. If he must, he wants to spend the core on his Soul Weapon Skills. At the same time, he also didn't want to choose the Bright-blade Body skills as that skill is too specialized in one aspect only.

After he confirms his choice, Timothy can feel his body power level increase. He tightens his fist and feels power coursing through it. Timothy then started to flex his muscles on all of his body, trying to gauge how much stronger he had become.

"This feels good. " Timothy said to himself.

Timothy then did several small testing, like punching and kicking the air. Each time, he can feel that his punch could possibly break someone's bone with ease. Timothy also tried to jump and found that his vertical jump can now reach three meters.

Satisfied with his new strength, Timothy had to force himself to remain calm or else he would rush to the Palace Training room to test his new power.

After taking a few slow breath and calming his heart, Timothy asked his Soul Weapon for the next skill, the Soul Weapon Skills.

Soul Weapon Skill : - Mirror Slash (active) : A user's attack will be followed up by a mirror image that deals half the damage (Req : Alpha White Fox Core) - Brightblade Long Strike (active) : a stabbing attack supported by light magic. increase the length of weapon made of light magic. - Heavy Slash (active) : a heavy slash attack imbued with weight magic. increases the damage while also adding blunt damage.

Timothy had already expected the results. There are three choices, with one of them is the Brightblade skill. This one will allow him to have a greater range when doing a stabbing attack.

The other skills required the Alpha White Fox Core, which Timothy has saved for this purpose. Mirror Slash skill didn't look really special for Timothy, as it only produced a mirror image with weaker damage, but it is too late to regret it now.

"Let's not think about the other skills or I will regret this too much. "

Steeling his heart, Timothy chose the Mirror Slash skill while consoling himself by saying this skill is good.
