Chapter 156: Following Silently (3)

Leon saw this and sighed deeply. He could only enter the room and his expression twisted when he sensed the black element rushing into his body.

The black element was a volatile element, this was something that many people had known in their entire life. Because the black element itself was commonly used in various matters, especially because of it corrosive nature and many other things. Even the application in various magic spells were also quite vicious and cruel.

A mage would learn how to use the element to their advantage.

But this didn’t mean that their entire body would be made of the element itself. They had to learn how to integrate the element into their own body and honed their strength.

Leon gritted his teeth and sat cross legged to start meditating.

Aya silently walked into the room through the faint gaps of the door and looked at Leon in front of her. She could see that the dark element was half repelled by Leon and the other part was also destroying his body instead of combining with him.

’His physique is not suitable for a dark element.’

This was the first time Aya saw Leon practiced and noticed this.

Element and physique repelling each other... it was a rare situation that even in her era, Aya rarely found it. Because if their physique couldn’t adapt to the element, then it was impossible for them to use their element effectively.

It was known that Leon’s talent was relatively average and his improvement was slow.

But through this, Aya knew that it was not Leon’s talent was average. His talent should be very good, the best and might be close to Silas.

His problem is his physique.

The physique repelled the dark element, making it harder for him to integrate the dark element into his body for his practice. Even if he meditated hard, the physical body was the one that made trouble for him, making it difficult for him to advance.

Looking at Leon’s pained expression, Aya sighed.

If Leon’s physique was not this repelling physique, Leon would have been able to improve leaps and bounds and his mana might even reach the rank of Yun.

In their last few spars, Aya had noticed that Leon was lagging behind Evan, but she didn’t expect that this would be the case.

’But physique is innate.’

Changing one’s physique was not impossible but it was extremely hard. The cost and the materials alone had made many people want to give up.

And from what Aya could guess, the Black Family Patriarch might have some guesses about Leon’s situation but he still let Leon practiced hard. Because there was no way the Black Family Patriarch could get the materials and methods to change Leon’s physique.

What Leon could do was to force his way through and endured it.

Only in this way could he continue to make progress.

Compared to other magic warriors of the same age, Leon’s progress was still far better than theirs. He was also more powerful because his body was tempered during his forceful training.

But if it was compared with other geniuses...

Aya shook her head.

Lilac’s rapid progress should have made Leon feel a lot of pressure.

Because Lilac was really good and with that kind of talent without any obstruction like Leon, she would be able to advance very quickly.

It would only take a few years for Lilac to surpass Leon in Aya’s estimation.

Aya watched Leon for a moment and then walked out again.

She found Lilac was looking at Silas in front of her. Her expression was cold and indifferent as if the person in front of her was not her cousin but a stranger.

"Father will not come back anytime soon. There’s no point for you to wait here," Lilac said calmly.

"It’s fine. I can wait," Silas replied with a faint smile and looked at the young girl in front of him. Leon and Lilac were truly different in their personalities.

Lilac was very serious and solemn, putting everything in an orderly manner like an adult. She was so serious that it was hard for others to refute her words.

"Father doesn’t like you."

How blunt.

Aya blinked her eyes and looked at Lilac up and down. Even though Lilac was Leon’s sister, the two of them were actually very different from each other. For one, their personality was the polar opposite and Lilac was much more colder than her peers.

"I know." Silas smiled.

Is the Black Family Patriarch so obvious?

Even his daughter could see that the Black Family Patriarch didn’t like Silas. But this might also be because Lilac was quite sharp and paid attention to her father’s attitude.

But Silas didn’t care.

He knew very well that the Black Family Patriarch didn’t like him because of his position in the family. What the Black Family Patriarch wanted was that the greatest geniuses would be his children instead of anyone else in the Black Family.

It was even more so to Silas.

Because the Black Family Patriarch almost lost the position of the patriarch to Silas’s father. If not because Silas’s father wanted to marry a commoner, it would have been impossible for the Black Family Patriarch to get this position.

So Silas didn’t mind it.

No matter how much the Black Family Patriarch didn’t like him and was wary of him, the Black Family Patriarch didn’t mistreat him.

Since that was the case, Silas could still accept this.

"Hmph!" Lilac snorted and then turned around to enter the training room once again.

Her father had always told her how much of a genius Silas was, so Lilac put it into her agenda to surpass Silas in the shortest time possible.

She wanted the Black Family Patriarch to praise her.

Klep.

The door was closed again.

Silas leaned back and sighed deeply. He had to wait until the Black Family Patriarch came back and Silas himself didn’t know how much time it would take. It might be better to use this time to practice but at his level, it was hard for him to advance through daily practice.
