What Do You Mean I Have Nine Wives?
Chapter 40: Returning Home
"Young Master, what are you doing?"
Elena asked curiously when she saw Tyler release his Azure Flame into the sword.
"Trying to create a sword art!"
Tyler replied as he channeled his Mana into the sword while slowly infusing the Azure Flame into the blade.
At first, nothing happened. The flame began to coat the sword, but with his recently improved control, he started pushing it into the blade.
"Huh? Are you serious, Young Master? You can’t just create a sword art. It requires an extreme level of understanding of Swordsmanship."
"You can’t be reckless about this."
Elena worriedly tried to stop him.
But before she could continue, she saw the blade of the sword melting slightly.
Tyler withdrew his Azure Flame immediately and said.
"It’s not exactly a sword art yet. It’s just a move that combines flames with my sword. After all, I have already decided to become a swordsman."
Hearing that, Elena looked at the red sword that was slightly bent before replying.
"Young Master, your idea is good, but aren’t you just using to release flame slashes?"
Tyler shook his head.
"It’s called Incineration. I am trying to infuse the heat of my flame into the sword so that whatever it touches will incinerate immediately."
"I plan to turn this into a swordsmanship so that my sword can cut the opponent’s defense before using the power of flame to incinerate them."
Hearing that, a look of amazement appeared on Elena’s face as she asked.
"That’s an incredible idea! But can your sword even bear that kind of heat? I think we should buy a powerful sword to practice that technique."
"No, I can only use this sword or another low-level sword for practice. Remember, the idea is to contain the power of the flame within the sword."
"To do that, I have to infuse my mana to strengthen the durability of the sword. The more control I have over my mana, the less mana I would need."
"Only then this kind of sword art would actually be usable."
Tyler explained.
"I understand. But it will not be easy, Young Master."
Elena raised her hand, and a dark energy seeped out of her body, slowly converging at her palm.
In just three seconds, that dark energy turned into a black sword.
"I once tried to create swords using my mana, but I couldn’t create a technique. I could only create a construct."
"But this kind of construct wouldn’t be so useful in a battle, so I abandoned this idea and just focused on mastering acquired techniques."
"Young Master, what you are trying has a solid theory, but it will not be so easy."
Hearing that, Tyler smiled and said.
"If it were easy, it wouldn’t be powerful. Remember Elena, the universe can stop us from cultivating, but it can not stop us from learning."
He raised his head slightly and continued.
"I had forgotten this quote a long time ago, but recently, I remembered it. I have a feeling. Humans are rebellious creatures."
"If there is one thing humans like doing the most is doing what they are told not to do. Hehehehe!"
Elena couldn’t help but feel strange. When she met Tyler yesterday, he explained his situation.
She also understood that his trouble had helped him solve his enemies, but that trouble brought even bigger problems.
But in just one night, Tyler went from being helpless and gloomy to happy.
It was weird.
Of course, she wouldn’t understand.
Yesterday, Tyler was feeling down about his choice.
After all, he had decided not to cultivate further after reaching the peak of the Mana Condensation Realm.
That thought hadn’t changed, but today, he no longer felt bad about his choice.
Just as he said, humans were inherently rebellious creatures.
Since the tower wanted him to reach the Treasured Body Realm to unlock the first, he decided he would not reach that level.
What could it possibly do?
Kill him! Okay, he had already died once. He didn’t fear death.
But he also knew he wouldn’t die. Because this tower had a strong beef with him, but it hadn’t left him.
So, Tyler had one assumption.
This tower was bound to him forever. His death might not destroy the tower, but it surely would cause it a lot of trouble.
A trouble so big that this tower didn’t leave him despite not liking him.
"Young Master, you look happy."
"I am happy."
"Yeah, you are!"
With low chuckles, they continued their journey to the Coastal City.
Next Day;
They finally returned to the city. Three of them made their way to their mansion.
"Welcome Back, Young Master!"
The maids and blusters, upon seeing Tyler, immediately bowed simultaneously.
"Hmm! Where is Garvin?" 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
Tyler asked while nodding.
"Lord Garvin is in his office! Would you like me to call him?"
The maid asked with her head down.
"No, just inform him about my return. I will be in my room. By the way, did Daisy bring the item and information?"
Tyler turned towards Elena and asked.
"No, she hasn’t returned. We don’t know anything about the mines yet."
Elena shook her head.
"Is that so? Then, just inform Garvin about my return!"
Tyler spoke before walking to his room.
"Nee?"
Shibyo walked up to him and nudged him.
"You? You can move around the mansion. By the way, I will release Nezumi."
As he said, he took out the Beast Keeping Bag and released Nezumi. As soon as it was released, it started sniffing all around him.
Suddenly, it ran next to Tyler and nudged him with its nose.
Tyler turned towards Shibyo and asked.
"What’s it saying?"
Shibyo gave him a surprised look before transmitting the information to Elena, who understood him and spoke for him.
"It found a very powerful energy source nearby. Now that I think about it, I am smelling an enormous Yang Energy coming from the soil of your land. That’s what he said."
Hearing that, Tyler touched his chin and placed Nezumi next to Shibyo. He patted Shibyo on his head and said.
"I have a job for you. Go and investigate the mines in this city. I need the complete map of the mine, alongside the ore reserves inside."
"If there is something unusual that you find, you can return immediately. Can you do it for me?"
Shibyo nodded, then pointed at his mouth.
Tyler turned towards his maids and said.
"Make a lot of food for two of them! Make the food as delicious as you can."
"Yes, Young Master!"
Soon, Tyler returned to his room with Elena.
"Young Master, what do you plan to do next?"
Elena sat on his bed and asked, playfully. Although her attitude was nonchalant, she was genuinely curious about his plan.
In her eyes, Tyler was the kind of person who wouldn’t move without a plan, but if something unexpected happened, he would simply improvise.
Considering the highest realm in the family was the Soul Sublimation Realm, Tyler didn’t need to ask for resources from the family for Elena.
But that didn’t mean he didn’t need those resources.
To enter the Soul Sublimation Realm, one would need three special resources.
Mind Calming Pill, True Enlightenment Pill, and Star Energy Pill!
Mind Calming Pill was necessary to keep the energy stable while transforming the soul.
The True Enlightenment Pill was absolutely necessary to start any kind of transformation of the soul.
Star Energy Pill provided the energy for the entire process, giving the cultivator enough energy similar to mana without refining mana.
All three of these pills were Grade Fifth Pills, each costing over a million spirit stones.
Because of this, the cost to cultivate a single Soul Sublimation Realm was over three million spirit stones.
The next realm required even more. That’s why those three brothers were so excited to capture Shibyo.
Elena no longer needed those resources since Yin-Yang Energy provided her with enough energy, while that sound gave her perfect control and enlightenment.
Tyler couldn’t dual cultivate with Garvin, so he had to get those resources for him.
To earn that much money, either he had to spend the money he had or he had to produce an extraordinary amount of ores and receive a huge profit from them.
Even after selling his properties, he could only raise one hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones.
So, earning three million spirit stones would take a long time. Before his awakening, he didn’t care about that.
After all, he was prepared for the worst.
But now, even if he couldn’t improve, he definitely wanted people around him to improve.
So, earning spirit stones had become his top priority.
Instead of thinking about the next plan, Tyler pounced on top of her and said.
"I have only one plan, and that is to test the limits of my newly improved body. What do you think, my little maid?"
As he grinned, he moved his lips over her and kissed her.
