Chapter 677: Consulting
"And that is what happened," Rain said while he was having breakfast with his family. "I want to return eventually to get some more relics, but maybe that is impossible."
"The demi-humans won’t become allies, I guess... for now at least," Seara said.
"Considering how prideful they are as the only species that defeated the dragons in a certain way, I doubt that they will change their minds," Terra shrugged. "They will face annihilation before that happens."
"At least there are some people there that we can trust, so it is better than nothing," Rain said. "Isa is old and knowledgeable, so her help will be handy."
"Don’t call a woman old," Seara raised her left eyebrow.
"What are the plans now?" Terra asked.@@@@
"There are the techniques that I want to learn, but we should also study how these relics work and try to understand how they are produced," Rain said. "You two can keep these with you, I will give some of the items I got to Lotto for him to study and I will do the same with a few others."
Seara received the blue pendant, and since she used her mana to strengthen Rain’s mana reserves, it was perfect for her. And wish the red pendant, Terra would become more durable as well in case something happens.
"I think that we should do other things to increase the fighting power of our group as a while," Seara said. "You can learn those techniques fast, but the warriors of the raging Phoenix need a lot more time to master and some of them can’t even learn it."
It was a gamble, but it was the most practical and feasible plan in the face of their impending conflict with the dragons. Rain understood that patience and perseverance would be their allies, and they would have to rely on their collective efforts to weather the challenges ahead.
"There is one thing that can make all of us stronger," Rain rubbed his chin thoughtfully. "Still, even I haven’t unlocked that path yet."
Rain recalled when he used sound magic to boost the strength of the warriors... that technique should be from a pretty advanced path, but there should be lower level paths that should have similar effects.
"I need to consult Isa about this... she has access to human and dragon path... she should know what are the paths necessary to unlock something like the bard path," Rain thought. "Once that path is unlocked, I can select those who have skills to play instruments and made them boost several groups with their magic."
As far as Rain knew, sound magic could buff as many people as possible, one just had to have a stupid amount of mana. It will take a bit of time, but the benefits will be out there. The Raging Phoenix strength was their resilience and the fact that they all could be quite tough, but Rain now had to diversify their characteristics a bit since the most difficult enemies now are dragons.
In the end, Rain waited until sunset to try to use the magic radio again, but it took a while for Isa to pick it for some reason. Thanks to that, Seara and Terra had time to finish their business and decide to listen to their conversation.
"Sorry, for bothering you so soon," Rain said. "I just needed to consult you with a few things."
"What is it?" Isa asked.
Rain thought that he should introduce his wives, but they probably didn’t want that since the path of the conversation would change... they wanted to see them talking without Isa knowing that they were there. Rain wondered what he had to make his wives so suspicious of him, but nothing came to mind.
"I was wondering if you know the right paths to unlock the bard path," Rain said. "I am thinking that using a bunch of them to increase the power of my warriors would increase our strength considerably in a short period of time."
