Chapter 333: 333

“Imagine the two cards you have within you . But not their physical form, but rather, their ‘magical’ form, if you wish to call it that . Imagine the power they bestow upon you in the form of a physical, tangible thing . ” Lognir said in a clear tone while Eiro was meditating on the ground . The Demon did as told, although this step wasn’t particularly tough yet .

It was similar to handling certain sorts of magic, so it wasn’t really that bad . But the point of this was to get to the source of the ‘card vibe’ that other card holders could feel, so that Eiro could filter it out of his aura . That way, even when he would let others see his regular strength, he could still hide the fact that he was a card holder himself, just like that Crow monster was able to do back then .

He didn’t know how much of an advantage that would be, but it wouldn’t hurt to have as an ability . And on top of that, if Eiro was able to figure out what that ‘vibe’ truly was that he could sense through the aura of other creatures, he might be able to sense it even if they are trying to hide it . After all, Eiro’s perception was second to none, or so he hoped at least, so if someone would be able to sense it, it would be Eiro .

The Demon could quickly turn the two Card powers that he had at all time, the and the , into something like a phyical mass within his mind, although that ended up being just in the form of two spheres that Eiro roughly connected a certain ‘meaning’ to .

“First, you will now compare these two masses and figure out their similarities and their differences, while also ocmparing them to your own aura . That way, you should be able to figure out the ‘Vibe’, as you call it, that is hidden within your aura . ” Lognir tried to guide Eiro through the whole process, while the Demon slowly nodded his head in response to the Dragon’s words .

“Mhm . . . ” Eiro mumbled quietly, before doing just that . He looekd at these two spheres, trying to grab them to feel if they had a texture . But no matter what Eiro did . . . While he was able to visualize them in his mind, that was it . He wasn’t sure if he was able to truly pull forth the abilities themselves . They had become so deeply ingrained within him that it was tough to split them from all his other abilities .

Seeing that Eiro was struggling, Lognir placed his hand onto the Demon’s head, “Don’t worry, go at your own pace . You don’t have to master this art instantly . Rather, it would be more surprising if you could . But here, let me put a bit of ‘order’ into your mind . ”

Eiro felt a slight heat enter through his scalp before the mental images that he was seeing suddenly became more clear, as if they were truly two orbs floating in front of him . He remembered this feeling, that felt like all that wasn’t supposed to be there simply vanished from his thoughts as he managed to focus on that which he wanted to .

“Thank you . ” The Demon said gratefully, before opening his eyes anyway . He wouldn’t be able to proceed like this, even though the images became clearer, that didn’t change the fact that they didn’t become true physical masses within Eiro’s mind .

Lognir took a step back and crossed his arms, deep in thought, “We can not truly proceed in any way before you mastered this . I think you should practice a bit more and then we can revisit this . ” The Dragon suggested . And although Eiro was a bit annoyed by this, since he wanted to get through this as quickly as possible to get all of his memories back, Eiro would rather finish it right now .

But obviously, that wasn’t possible yet . It was annoying . Really, really annoying . As Eiro was thinking, he closed his eyes, deep in thought over what he was supposed to do in order to get this done .

Just as the Demon was thinking, he could hear the clumsy steps of a young creature get closer to him . As Eiro opened his eyes again, he could see one of Lognir’s six children sitting on the ground in front of him curiously . All of Lognir’s children were technically different species of Dragon, as little as that makes sense .

Lognir explained the reason to Eiro before . His mate, Krista, was a Chaos Dragon . She was practically oozing chaos, which made it nearly impossible for both Lognir and Eiro to figure out what she was going to do next, it went that far .

Usually, if a Chaos Dragon mated with another sort of Dragon, it would mostly end up being a Chaos Dragon as well, albeit sometimes with slightly differing abilities to each other . But in this case, since Lognir as a Dragon of Truth, he brought ‘Order’ into Krista’s ‘Chaos’ . That was why all of these children seemed to have a different overall Draconic Race . One was a Storm Dragon, another was a Frost Dragon, and the others were Fire, Rock, and Poison Dragons . And then, there was the one that just walked up to Eiro . The Demonic Dragon .

It had two large horns on its head and the sharpest claws of the bunch . Also, its wings were the most pronounced already . Eiro squatted down toward it and rubbed the top of its head, before Lognir chuckled quietly, “Seems like Jhir took a liking to you . Well, that was to be expected . ”

“Was it? I thought maybe Hargo and Migna would be interested in me . I’m not really the prime example for a Demon . ” Eiro pointed out, referring to the Frost and Fire Dragons that were also somewhat looking over in the Demon’s direction . The others weren’t interested at all, though .

“Why’s that? You look rather Demonic to me . ” Lognir explained, and Eiro slightly squinted his eyes in thought, “Did . . . I not tell you about that yet?”

The Dragon of Truth’s smile immediately dropped as he stared back at Eiro, ” . . . Tell me about what?”

“One of the children I’ve been raising for the past seven to eight years is the Holy Priestess . And of course, the bit about me planning on becoming the Hero, and all . ”

” . . . Right . . . Err . . . Anything else you want to tell me before we continue?”

“I don’t think so . I told you everything important so far . ” Eiro explained as he continued rubbing over this newborn Dragon’s snout, “Either way, he’s a cute one . It’s nice when they’re still this cuddly . . . I have to savor that with my two youngest . ” The Demon added .

“Eh . Isn’t it better if they’re independent quickly so you can do your own thing?”

“In what world is that true? Sure, I mean, it’s good if they are independent at some point . But it’s mostly good for them, not necessarily for . . . you . To you, they’ll always be little kids, and you’ll want to take care of them . No matter how impressive they are even at a young age . My oldest never really seemed like a kid at all, so he was the first one to want to go off and do his own thing every once in a while . But even then, I worry about him and make sure that he’s alright when I’m not around . ”

Lognir laughed slightly, “Yeah, but your children aren’t literal Dragons . ”

Eiro let out a deep sigh, “True, but for example, one of my kids is literally invulnerable . That doesn’t mean bad things can’t happen to him . He might go through some tough times, and who knows if he’s going to truly be invulnerable forever? Let’s say he was a Dragon . ‘Dragon Slayers’ are a thing . They’re rare, sure, but they can appear at any time . And I don’t think that all Dragons are on good terms . Being a little worried is never a bad thing . ”

“You’re right, you’re not a proper Demon at all . ” Lognir said with a wry smile, “I guess . . . Maybe that would be a good way to look at it . . . ” The Dragon looked at his child in front of him and squatted down, rubbing his back a bit .

After a few moments, he finally realized something else, “Ah, I think I have an idea for how you could master that technique rather quickly after all . ”

“And how is that?” Eiro asked curiously, and Lognir was about to open his mouth before another person stepped into the room, “Oi, Lad, Lognir, I’m ready to start workin’ now . Wanna come watch?” Armodeus exclaimed .

That was the deal, after all . Armodeus could only work with the materials he was given here if Lognir was watching him . Since the Dragon figured that Eiro should still take a bit of a break, he turned around and nodded his head .

“Sounds like a good idea . Eiro, I will explain it to you later . For now, let’s watch your friend work . ”

“Alright, fine . ” Eiro said with a slight sigh . Sure, he was curious, but as long as Eiro was able to figure out how to recover his memories during his time here, he would be fine . And he trusted Lognir when he said that he would be able to help Eiro . On top of that, it was still their first day here, they had plenty of time . According to Lognir, they were already far ahead of the ‘schedule’ that he had planned out, considering how quickly Eiro managed to manipulate his aura sufficiently .

The Demon stood up properly and followed Lognir to the room where Armodeus set up a rough workshop, while the Demonic Dragon was clumsily following Eiro, trying to catch up to him . But to Eiro’s surprise, Armodeus not only set up a ‘rough’ workshop . He was able to somehow create a proper forge by shaping the rock wall and was using magic to set everything up . It was most likely some sort of special ability that let him set up a perfect workshop wherever he went .

He even managed to get coals from somewhere, although Eiro had no idea where from . Maybe he also had a bit of a storage ability in his repertoire that he made use of . Either way, for now, Eiro was just watching as Armodeus ground up the eggshells that the Dragons hatched out of . Similar to how the Dragons were different species, the eggshells also had unique properties to each other that Armodeus wanted to make use of .

After some of the eggshells had been ground up, the craftsman was just mixing them with other materials before melting them down, a process that pulled out certain metallic properties out of the shells .

And this was exactly what Armodeus would use to craft some items .
