《My Hermit Life》Chapter 37
Advertisement
" Well kids its been around 100,000 years since you were created and
you can finally take your old man in a fight, I guess Dao
comprehensions arent what a God is based on for nothing. After you two
started learning your respective Daos your improvements in fighting
have been immense. "
" It was all thanks to you dad if you hadnt helped us make those
totems all those years ago we wouldnt have started studying such
profound Daos. Of course we would still have started learning Daos
just not anything so powerful, at most we would have started learning
Wood Daos or something involving wood Daos. "
" Well dont sell yourselves short I just pushed you two in the right
direction, plus thanks to both of you I have started learning the same
Daos. Loretta and Deam have also started to learn the Momentum Dao
from your sister and Deam is getting a few hints of the Strength Dao
from your World Elephant. Gabrielle is learning some Space Daos from
you a bit as well. "
" Anyway Sande, Sud, you two want to do some more sparring? "
"" Lets do this/ You ready to be beat old man? ""
" Hehehe. "
And just like that all three of them started sparring like maniacs,
Solomon was swinging his hammer staff around like a child playing with
a toy sword. Skyddsud was summoning his totems and slamming them at
his dad, few of them would connect but the ones that did hit like a
truck. Skyddsande was summoning her totems in a repeated and an almost
wave like pattern, the reason for this unique way of attacking is due
to her comprehension into the Dao of Momentum. Its in this fasion that
Solomon had alot of trouble defending against his childrens attacks.
Sandes constant irritation and then Suds occasional brutal hits cause
Solomon alot of trouble.
If most Gods were to witness such a scene they would be immensely
surprised not only because of Solomons insane physical power but also
because of Sandes and Suds comprehension of Daos. One must know it is
extremely rare for non-Gods to start understanding Daos it is even
more so for created and not born races. It is also surprising that the
two children were comprehending such advanced Daos especially Suds
becuase his Dao combines Strength and World Daos.
The reason the two were able to comprehend their respective Daos is
because unless you are like Solomon constantly training his physical
abilities or Gabby always studying magic. Then unfortunately there
isnt much to do, except stufying your race skills, Daos, crafting
skills, or maybe if your lucky untrained skills. One other thing a
person could do is if they know Solomons Mastery trick they could
increase their talent endlessly.
Matter of fact Solomon does a mix, he puts himself in a trance using
Dream Magic that way he can practice Skills, magic, and hypnotically
continue his strength. Solomon also does his Mastery trick, meaning
that when his 1,000,000 years are up he could be the most talented
being alive. Though that is unlikely.
Back to the fight, currently Solomon was increasing the pressure on
his kids. What he did was he pulled out his own totem weapon, his
totem weapon was something de developed based on his children. The
totem is made of a mix of Elephants, Rhinos, Bears, ox, ants, beetles,
and any other physically strong creatures. The animals portrayed was
to help Solomon better his understanding of his strength Dao. The
function of the totem was for Solomon to provide himself mid range

coverage during battle. The totem was developed after Solomon started
having trouble fighting his kids.
With the addition of his totem Solomon started to put a hurtin' on his
kids, he focused Sande with the totem which effectively took her out.
With out his sisters coverage Skyddsud was easily and cleanly taken
out. Right after Solomon took out Sud Sande gave up since she knew she
couldnt handle her adopted dad alone.
While the three were talking about their spar, a similar situation
could be seen taking place on the other side of the island from
Solomon and his kids. Loretta was talking to her kids after sparring
with them. Though the spar they had was more the kids demonstrating
with Loretta giving them advice. Lorettas kids had advanced alot from
when she had first created them. Lorettas son Fuil seemed to take
after Solomon a bit despite Solomon having nothing to with Fuils
creation.
Fuil kept the general idea and physiology of a rhino short powerful
legs and thighs, but he changed the body to be like a large trunk with
massive spikes all over himself. Fuils fighting style involved ramming
into his enemies and then growing out sharp blood sucking spikes. He
could also change form to look like a normal tree, this is for ambush
and/or defense purposes. Fuil could grow spikes from the ground or
tree body in this form alot easier than in his rhino form.
Lorettas daughter Wahine still enjoyed finnesse fighting but she
changed her form to better suit such a way of fighting. Wahine made
her self have a short body with long willowy limbs. Whaine also had a
tail that could suck the blood of her enemies. Her favorite weapon to
use is a spiral pipe weapon that has long blades from top to bottom.
This weapon allows her to attack from any direction without the use of
immense technique, the weapon was made by Pater after Loretta
commisioned him.
Deam and Gabby were putting there children through similar situations.
The reason for all of the prep was because the annual sparring
competition between the younger generation was soon. Over the last
100,000 years there were countless spars between the youth in the
dimension. Though Solomon and his group were rarely challenged and
when they were it was a challenge with rules attatched, formation
challenges, crafting battles, most firepower, etc.... But despite the
near 100% win rate Solomon and his group were still challenged at
least once during the annual competition. The reason for this is that
the group alwayes gave really good rewards for being beaten. Most of
the time the group gave specail plants grown in Solomon and Lorettas
world. Which despite so much time had still not been named.
So after such an amazing win rate the group decided to involve their
kids, they figured itd give the other youngsters a chance. The parents
even decided to increase the anti for the battles.They thought this
would be a good chance for the kids to get more battle experience
against someone other than the parents and the other children.
Due to this the parents have been training their kids hard with
sparring, studying, and pure working out. With such hardcore training
the kids advanced dramatically.
After a week it was finally time for the spar, each of the kids
couldnt hold in their excitement. They couldnt wait to fianlly reveal
their power to someone other than their friends and family. For the
first battle it was Deams son Fear going against one of the God
Monkeys.
When Fear was across from the God Monkey named Jack he did a soldiers

salute his mother taught him and then took a battle stance. Fear
decided to take a defensive stance since God Monkeys were known to be
fierce attacker which meant Fear knew he didnt have to take the lead.
And as Fear predicted right as the match started Jack launched himself
at Fear. Fear did a jab with his spear right into Jacks abdomen, Jack
decompressed him abdomen and tried to get a hit on Fear. Unfortuantely
for him Fear squatted under the staff and after dodging the hit he did
another jab right into Jacks stomach area. After the jab Fear followed
up by stepping forward once and then performing an upwards sweep, this
hit Jack in the chin which disoriented him. Fear would of course not
follow up with another hit so he did an overhear smash right onto
Jacks chest. At this point it was clear that Fear would win, so Jack
conceded.
The next battle was between Deams daughter Rean and one of the Golems.
Rean was very nervous because this Golem, Sans, was a direct counter
towards her. Golems didnt usually fight close quarters despite the
fact that their bodies are usually very sturdy. Golems often focused
on formations and enchantments which meant they like distance battles
which sadly arent Reans speciality. Before the match started Rean did
her soldiers salute and then she pulled out a small shield a bit
larger than a human males chest.
When the match started Rean did the opposite of her brother and
charged toward her enemy. The Golem seemed to expect that though and
jumped backwards himself, not before he laid a trapping formation
though. The formation was a very basic and common one that forms
chains trapping anybody who stepped on it. Rean sadly didnt know this
and stepped on the trap, she was instantly trapped. It was at that
moment everybody watching knew she would lose. And like everybody
though Rean lost soon after. After losing Rean came down from the
Arena and the parents and children could see that she was barely
holding in her tears. Deam seeing that walked up to her and embraced
her in a big ol' hug. Deam even said some consoling words which was
unusual for her.
" Its alright Rean, you challenged one of the most talented Golems in
this generation who just so happened to be a counter to you. Besides
this was all a learning experience now you know not be do direct when
facing formation masters. "
" Thanks mom, I will practice alot and then challenge that Golem
again. Next time Ill beat him I promise. "
" I believe you sweetie. "
After that it was Gabbies childrens turn. Both Nathair and Boireann
challenged Ancient Dragons, they did this to prove themselves. Nathair
and Boireann both knew they were based around Dragons, this kind of
upset them and made them want to challenge such a powerful race.
Nathair was the first to challenge, he did this so that his sister
would get a general of the dragons abilities.
Nathair doesnt have any pre battle rituals so when he got on stage he
just silently prepared himself for the impending battle. The Ancient
Dragon, Slim, was the same way. When the battle started Nathair
created a massive tornado that occupied the entire platform, he also
infused Void Magic into the tornado. This single tornado started to
rip the space it occupied, this caused worry among everbody watching.
After a while with no reaction from the Ancient Dragon Solomon stopped
the match and negated the tornado. When the tornado stopped everybody
saw Slim lying on the floor, they could barely tell he was alive. This
completely stumped all the viewers watching the battle. After everbody
thought for a bit they just assumed that Slim was arrogant and didnt
prepare any defences. This gave Boireann great confidence for her
battle.
Boireann copied her brother by just preparing herself for the upcoming
battle and not doing anything fun or fancy. She instead started making
her Mana flow in a specific patten similar to an Earth Wall spell.
When the match started Boireann summoned a massive earth wall that
went from one edge of the arena to the other. Boireann did this
instead of being aggresive like her brother because A. her enemy would
be prepared and B. aggresion didnt fit Reanns fighting style.
After Reann raised the wall she summoned a World Turtle, World
Elephant, and then she summoned a world to go on top. This was Reanns
specialty it was a mix of her Summoning Magic, Animal Magic, and World
Magic, she did all this to summon a powerful animal to fight for her.
This summoning trifecta can block multiple enemies while Reann
prepared other magics which is exactly what she did. While Reanns
enemy was focused on her summon Reann started creating holes around
the Arena to trip up her enemy, the holes had blunt spikes. Now all
Reann had to do was wait and her enemy would eventually trip up, but
that isnt what Reann did at all. She instead started summoning other
animals, all of which attacked her enemy.
And like Reann hoped her enemy couldnt handle all the enemies and
tripped into one of the holes landing on the spikes. Everbody watching
knew that if the spikes hadnt been blunt the Ancient Dragon would have
been skewered. It was like that that the battle ended. The next few
battles went in a similar direction. Lorettas Son destroyed the one of
the Fist Boars that was around the same side as him, though it was an
extremely tough battle. Lorettas daughter challenged a fairy that had
a similar fighting style to herself, it was an extremely close battle
but the fairies more professional rapier training gave it the
advantage. Loretta was the saddest one after that battle since it was
her fault Wahine didnt have better rapier training. Solomons childrens
battle was different, it was Skyddsande and Skyddsud against a Golem,
a fairy, and a God Monkey.
The reason for this is because Solomon wanted to really challenge his
children and a challenge he got for them. The battle started off with
the Golem laying a trapping formation. This is to prevent Sande or Sud
from getting up close. They assumed that Solomons children would be
close combat fighters like their father especially because Solomon is
the best CC ( Close Combat ) fighter in their dimension. This was a
big mistake that Sande and Sud played on.
Sud pretended to try getting close, and right when he was in the right
spot to hit the Fairy Sud summoned his totems to smash into the Golem.
This knocked the Golem out of the Arena and gave enough surprise for
Sande to attack and take care of the Dragon. Sande trapped the Dragon
in an attacking formation, something that can provide different
effects depending on how someone attacks. The attacking formation
Sande used can trap someone while still providing constant attacks.
With the Dragon taken care of Sud had plenty of time to easily take
down the fairy. Surprisingly such an expectedly tough battle ended
cleanly and easily.
With the children completeing all their battles the parents took them
all to celebrate. The party was something small, with Loretta cooking
some fod up out of animals grown in her and Solomons world. Solomon
also had some tunes playing, as well as a few party games. The group
partied for twelve hours straight with drinking, dancing, and general playing around.
