Chapter 478 - 259: Weakness Is the Original Sin!
The next morning.
The dawn barely broke.
Earl York and his entourage stood on the platform at the top of the castle’s third floor, bidding farewell to Raine and Laisa.
"Mr. Rein, although I have already informed the nobles that the slaying of the Dragon Rider and Siegfried is primarily the responsibility of our York Clan, that Demon Mage Lilith escaped early..."
Jessica, with a hint of concern on her face, looked at Raine and said.
"Therefore, subsequently, the other party may list you as a major threat. Please ensure your safety."
Hearing the Countess Jessica consider things so thoroughly, Raine couldn’t help but feel moved.
Although he didn’t need to hide anything, it was rare for someone to think of him so much.
"My lady, you worry too much. Back in Dorne City, I already killed a Half-Orc Black Fist Commander named Gelkuk, and the other side has long seen me as a thorn in their side!"
At this point, Earl York and his wife exchanged a glance.
They realized they had underestimated this Mr. Rein.
Unexpectedly, he had already killed a Transcendent.
"Instead, Earl York, your side has somewhat weak defenses. It’s better to spread the whole story truthfully, omitting details where possible."
Raine smiled.
The so-called give and take.
"I understand."
"Ladies and gentlemen, it’s about time. We should depart."
"Mr. Rein, I wish you a smooth journey!"
As they watched Raine and Laisa riding the Griffin gradually disappear into the sky, Earl York felt a mix of emotions.
"Aaron, it’s thanks to you calling Mr. Rein this time," Earl York turned to his son Aaron and said.
"Since Mr. Rein has agreed to let you join his war band, you should quickly pack up in the next few days and head to Dorne City of the Soladin Kingdom with your companions.
"In these turbulent times, the fief, guards, or even the title of count will not provide much sense of security. Only if your own strength is strong enough can you rely on it the most."
"After reaching Dorne City, learn well from Mr. Rein."
"I understand! Father. I will study diligently under Mr. Rein," Aaron’s eyes showed determination, with a look of longing.
This is exactly what he anticipated.
The battle that happened in the banquet hall last night was still vivid in his mind.
If he had such strength, the other party wouldn’t dare to target the York Clan or Warwick City.
Indeed, weakness is the original sin!
...
On the Griffin.
Raine suddenly remembered that he hadn’t checked the symbol of the Spiked-Bone Dragon yet, so with a thought, he immediately began to check.
Minutes later, he was lost in thought.
The strongest feature of the Spiked-Bone Venom Dragon is its venomous breath, along with 90% Toxin Damage Immunity.
But this might be an excellent bloodline talent and dependence for others, yet for him, it’s somewhat useless.
Because he already has at least two monster bloodlines, possessing the ability of ’90% Toxin Damage Immunity and immunity to middle-low tier toxins,’ such as the ’Elite Enchanting Demon,’ and the ’Specially Strong Elite Flom Demon’ after synthesis.
Thus, the remaining venomous breath ability of the Spiked-Bone Dragon Bloodline is not very useful to him.
From this perspective, this also proves his previous approach was correct.
One way is to seek to kill higher-tier demons, gaining stronger resistances and following a resistance path.
Currently, he’s a divine monster level against casters, especially those specialized in Frost Spells and Lightning Spells.
Of course, for other resistances such as Fire Spell and strong acid spells, with the White Dragon Bloodline, he only has medium levels.
Further collection is needed later.
Another way is to pursue and kill other dragons besides the White Dragon, enhancing spell specialization corresponding to various dragon types, following a power path.
Moreover, Five-Color Dragons have near immunity level resistance to their own breath attribute spells.
So, this path is actually better than the previous one, not only increasing battle power but also boosting spell resistance in a particular line.
Of course, considering the difficulty of killing a dragon, this is also more challenging than the previous one!
Suddenly, Raine felt something unusual in front of him.
Waking up, Raine noticed that his Power suit had been damaged, leaving him only in a single garment, and Laisa was sitting in front of him, pressing closely against him.
Particularly, Laisa’s pert backside was pressed against his front.
It must be said that as a Level 4 Wanderer, her legs were rounded and powerful, her buttocks perky and very elastic.
Moreover, unlike when they came, Laisa at this moment was not deliberately avoiding anything, instead leaning against his chest warmly and softly.
Raine could even see a rare blush on Laisa’s charming face.
....
The sun set in the west.
The evening glow at the horizon turned the sky from orange-red to a pale golden hue.
The Olsen Family Castle gradually appeared in Raine’s view.
Since Laisa had written in advance to inform them of their schedule, as the Griffin began a rapid descent, a group quickly approached the platform on top of the castle.
They were the long-unseen Elise, Reya, Meredith, Sulfur Vine, and Schneider among others.
"Elise!" The delighted Laisa was the first to jump off the Griffin, giving Elise a tight hug.
"Hmm? Raine, where’s your Power suit?" Yet Elise’s gaze swept past Laisa to Raine, immediately noticing that Raine was only wearing a single garment, with the newly replaced Power suit nowhere to be seen.
"Uh...it was accidentally damaged in battle."
