CHAPTER 822: CHAPTER 643: THE STRONGEST MAGIC SWORDSMAN

The next day, early morning.

As the sunlight shone into the Dusk Mansion comprised of spires, the members of the family in the Dusk Mansion were already waking up from their dreams, each getting into a busy state.

Some were organizing equipment, others sorting items, some were on shifts for guard duty or patrol, and some had arranged to team up to go to the underground city, making the entire Dusk Mansion brim with vitality.

Reiger also woke up at sunrise and headed to the courtyard early to practice Wind Breathing with Ais, who had woken up earlier and was practicing swordsmanship.

"The core principle of the breathing technique lies in concentration."

"Only with enough concentration can the rhythm and precision of breathing increase, allowing you to control your lungs and absorb a large amount of oxygen."

"Tighten your abdomen, the limbs can remain relaxed, but put more effort into your torso... yes, just like that."

Reiger’s voice continuously echoed in the courtyard, making Ais nod seriously while drawing the curious gazes of many passersby who peeked in to watch.

"Those two are together again..."

"Their relationship is really good..."

"Could it be that they have that kind of interest?"

"Who knows..."

Whispers like these would occasionally emerge from the mouths of people, demonstrating how much attention Reiger and Ais drew when they were together.

Previously, Reiger and Ais often hung out together, either sparring or on their way to spar, but at that time no one thought there was anything between them.

After all, back then, Reiger was just a newcomer, nowhere near as strong as the first-level adventurers in the family, and people in the family felt that Reiger and Ais being together was unlikely, and their interaction resembled more a mentor-student relationship than a romantic one.

But now, Reiger had grown stronger, becoming a first-level adventurer and making impressive achievements, especially his solo battle against the mysterious female humanoid monster on the 50th floor during the last expedition, which earned him the admiration of all the family members.

Furthermore, yesterday the two walked around the family’s headquarters laughing and chatting, with even Ais, usually expressionless and often referred to as a doll, showing a rare faint smile, causing the rumors about them to spread even more. Probably only the parties involved hadn’t heard them yet.

Therefore, in many people’s eyes, the atmosphere between Reiger and Ais who were always together had changed significantly, adding a lot of ambiguity.

Unfortunately, the parties themselves didn’t seem to notice, one patiently teaching the girl and the other seriously listening to the boy’s guidance, with a sparring session in between, until the bell resounded throughout the Dusk Mansion, indicating breakfast time, and they stopped.

This bell served as a signal that breakfast time had arrived.

So Reiger sheathed the Fool’s Sword and smiled at Ais.

"Let’s call it a day."

Upon hearing this, a slightly panting Ais seemed to only then notice the bell, wanting to continue but remembering the instructions of the main god, she nodded.

"You... really have become so strong now."

Seeing Reiger, who sparred with her for so long without being out of breath or even breaking a sweat, Ais couldn’t help feeling a bit downhearted.

Even though she had leveled up, she still couldn’t compare to Reiger, which made Ais feel somewhat dejected.

"You can do it too." Seeing through the girl’s thoughts, Reiger comforted her, saying, "As long as you master the breathing technique, not only will your basic stamina increase, but your stamina recovery speed will also improve with the refinement of your breathing. Then you won’t feel tired so easily."

"Really?" Ais’s eyes lit up slightly, with a small surprise and astonishment, she spoke: "Breathing technique has such effects?"

"Yeah, it actually has quite a few benefits." Reiger walked over to Ais and said with a smile, "By improving the precision of your breathing, you can control the flow of your blood. It can help reduce stamina consumption or control blood flow when injured, achieving hemostatic effects."

"If you train to a high level, you can maintain the breathing technique even while sleeping, reaching a state of ’Full Concentration Constant,’ significantly boosting your basic stamina and physical abilities."

"For you, it shouldn’t be difficult, just practice more."

This wasn’t Reiger comforting Ais; he truly believed it.

Full Concentration Constant, though a profound realm of breathing, is a foundational prerequisite to becoming a Pillar, but for true geniuses, a Pillar is not an unreachable level.

A Pillar Swordsman, equivalent to Lv.4, Tokitou Muichirou achieved becoming the Mist Pillar in just two months, learning Full Concentration Constant early on.

And Ais undoubtedly has greater talent than Tokitou Muichirou.

Given this, in Reiger’s view, it shouldn’t take Ais long to learn Full Concentration Constant.

"Liz mastered Love Breathing’s Full Concentration Constant within a week, even if Ais is less than Liz, she should manage it within a month, right?"

With such thoughts, Reiger mentioned the realm of Full Concentration Constant to Ais in a relaxed tone.

"Maintaining the breath even while sleeping..."

Ais muttered a few words, also keeping Reiger’s words in mind.
