Chapter 25: Difficulties (in more than one way)
Vast quantities of qi that rushed were sucked towards a little room inside of an inn in the outskirts of Bluedragon city. Inside of this room were two figures flouting midair. All the qi rushed towards them and they greedily absorbed it. One of the figures was a girl looking about 16 years old and wearing a beautiful red robe. She herself was even more beautiful than her cloths and could be called a peerless beauty. But not only was she beautiful, she also radiated a powerful aura betraying that she was an early nascentstage cultivator.
Next to her was a young man flouting and also absorbing the qi in an absurd speed. He was wearing a dark blue robe and radiated the aura of the peak nascentstage.
Naturally that pair of figures were Reis and Zes. After the fight they searched for an inn and then rested for some time. They woke up early in the morning and immediately started to cultivate.
Since both of their daos were creationstage daos and they also had a certain degree of comprehension towards it, they cultivated much quicker than normal people. Rather it was almost impossible to compare them to other cultivators. If a normal cultivator were to see their speed of absorption and the amounts of qi they were drawing towards them, they would just faint out of envy.
Suddenly Zes face turned pale and blood came out of the corners of his mouth. He immediately stopped his cultivation and slowly descended onto the ground. Reis that was next to him noticed that change and also ended her cultivation. Worried she asked him.

“Are you alright?”
Zes just wiped away the bloodstains and reassuringly smiled.
“It's not a big deal, I have cultivated too quickly and my body is now unable to bear the amounts of qi I'm absorbing. I just have to slow down a bit.
Also maybe I should start practicing an external training technique. That should make my body more durable and my body should be able to endure it then.”
He searched his memory for an external training technique. The memories Immortal Calmlight had passed him contained many strange cultivation techniques and knowledge that even greater powers had no access to.
Shortly after he started searching, he had already found a suitable technique for himself.
External training techniques were techniques that trained the body of a cultivator. Actually there were many cultivators that were only training their body. But there were only few that got to the nascentstage that way.
After Zes had found a suitable technique he started practicing it right away.
The cultivation technique was consisting of a set of movements and stances that were meant to stimulate the muscles and draw qi to fuse it into the flesh.
Zes started slowly making one stance after another but he quickly fell into a state of concentration where he was repeating the movements and stances in quick order.
He did that for half an hour until he was completely drenched in sweat. He stopped while heavily breathing and inspected his body.
Even though there were no apparent changes on his body, he knew that he had improved it quite a bit in this short time.
Since he completely become soaked in sweat he washed himself and changed clothes.
Then he took Reis that continued to cultivate once she saw that there seemed to be no problems with Zes and set off to the city lord’s palace.

When they reached the palace they were respectfully welcomed and immediately shown the way to the city lord’s office by the guards. They entered the room and saw Gay sitting there and looking through some documents.
As he noticed them, he straight away stood up.
“Master.”
He respectfully bowed to Zes. But Zes only smiled and said.
“I already said that you do not have to call me master or bow before me. Just call me Zes.”
Gay smiled and it was obvious that he had done it on purpose.
“As you wish. From now on I will call you Zes-sama”
Zes was taken aback.
“Isn't that Japanese? It somehow does not fit in at all.”
“I have found these in some books called manga. My daughters have a hobby to collect human things and these books are part of their collection.”
“Please just call me Zes otherwise it will just not feel right, ok?”
After some more convincing Gay finally gave in. Zes sighed. This was much more tiring then he thought it would be.
“Well, I have not come here to discuss about these things so let’s come to the point, ok?”
“But of course.”
Like this they started to discuss matters concerning the city. They agreed to invent something like a police to improve public safety and regulate matters regarding humans living in Bluedragon city.
As for the part with the demon girls serving humans, they agreed to have every girl that had been born in this realm would have to serve a human from the day they turned 22. They would also have to serve them for at least 20 years.
At that point Zes asked Reis.
“Oh right, I wanted to ask that all along, how old are you Reis? It's impossible to guess from your look since you were already corestage when I first met you. Don't tell me your some old granny.”
Reis became red out of embarrassment and angrily shouted.
“I'm only 22, ok?”
“Oh, you are in the same age as my daughters, quite funny.”
Gay threw in.
“By the way, you also have to take them with you as your pets today. I will immediately sent for them.”
He did not even tried to hide that he was looking for a chance to do that the whole time. Slowly Zes became scared of Gay, he was just too much of a perfect butler. If he were to change his name to Sebastian and wear a butler outfit he would easily pass any evaluation.
The door cracked as a servant opened it.
“Ah, there they are.”
As the door opened Les and Zoe entered the room. They had red faces and only stared at their feet as they walked in. The reason for that was that they were completely naked except for a collar with some symbols on it.
Their white twin peaks were sticking out and making an awesome view for every man that was not gay. (Ohhhhh)
Zes had to admit that he had difficulties to control his lower body and could not take his view of the two beauties that were standing there completely naked.

Tales of the Legendary Scholar
They meet in the most unlikely moment and turned their life around. Freidrech newly arrived in his own nation's capital city, which is so foreign to him compared to his village's idyllic and nondiscriminatory atmosphere, after he is forced to come. Now, he is facing a royal prince and tells him to bow. This draws out one of his late father's teachings from the deepest recesses in his mind. "The blood of your great ancestors runs in your veins. Don't easily bow down to anyone, or accept suppression by any being, not even from a monarch, unless you pledge your allegiance to him. Also, giving in to oppression is directly telling the oppressor that you're easy prey and open for manipulation." He is uncertain on how to face this oppression right now. Will he bows or not? What will he do to uphold his father's words while keeping his life safe? As for the prince, Theodrech has nothing to do with Freidrech, so he wishes to let this slip, but the boy opens his mouth and proposes the most ludicrous challenge he ever heard and triggers his curiosity. "I, Freidrech Goederf Gerboud, son of the late Village Chief Louvel Gerboud of Wrilon, will challenge you, Your Highness, to a battle of riddles… If you win, I will not only bow but be your servant for the rest of my life." This amuses the prince. It is the first he met a boy of the same age who is not intimidated by the air of authority he projects. Rather, this boy challenges him. "Why are you so headstrong? In fact, bowing to me is an honor. You saw the King's noble Knights. When they saw me, they bowed," says Theodrech, testing Freidrech. "Allow me to be forward, Your Highness. For me, bowing to a monarch does not guarantee loyalty. If I were you, I rather have men who stand straight in my presence but who got my back, than bowing men who are dreaming of my death," replies Freidrech. The prince’s curiosity increases. A huge smile is seen on his face. Prince Theodrech decides to take Freidrech under his wing. Little did they know, this boy who Prince Theodrech takes in as his confidant and friend in the most ridiculous fashion is someone indispensable in his life and the one who can help him succeed the throne when he almost believes he has lost. Thus, the Tales of the Legendary Scholar begins. ------ o ------ Old Synopsis: A famous ancient adage stated, behind a successful man is a woman BUT… In these lands, the monarchs are seeking not a woman to stand behind them but the man hailed as the Legendary Scholar.
