Chapter 99: Grayfia's Martial Soul

--- Chapter 99 ---

After telling Grayfia that Huo Yuhao is actually from another world, the mood becomes somewhat weird because you might think it would end awkwardly. No, the silver-haired maid is more curious now.

She has been asking many questions regarding Douluo Dalu's universe, and Huo Yuhao answers them patiently because having a secret about his homeworld is pointless with her level of curiosity. Frankly, the maid was speechless because such an eastern fantasy novel-like world actually exists outside there, which also explains Huo Yuhao's origin.

Not to mention Huo Yuhao recited many unknown terms like Spirit Power, Spirit Rank, Spirit Beast, and Spirit Master without explaining deeply about them. Is he afraid she would open her mouth and tell others about this information?

The answer is no, but for different reasons that Grayfia had come up with by herself.

'No, Master hasn't trusted me yet. I have to show him that I was a good servant-! I mean maid! Yes, maid!' She thought while clenching her hand with firm resolution.

Unknown to Grayfia, Huo Yuhao is too lazy to explain everything because she could get them by asking questions to the Dragon Nest's members in the compound later. A brief introduction is good enough for now.

[Grayfia Luficufe's loyalty has increased]

[You now could communicate through "Telepathy." with her]

"Well, that was... Something?" Huo Yuhao said with a wry expression because he barely did anything to keep Grayfia on his side.

It's not like he wasn't attracted to the silver-haired maid because she is such a charming lady with an adorable personality, but they barely knew each other. In his previous life, there was this common phrase, "Tak Kenal Maka Tak Sayang." which means if you don't know someone, you couldn't love that person.

If Huo Yuhao and Grayfia Lucifuge were closer, he wouldn't mind bringing her to his side. After all, she could be a fine companion from what he had observed in the last three meetings they had with each other. Her deep fascination for him is admirable, but he doesn't see anything besides that.

'Grayfia, can you hear me.' Huo Yuhao still walked on the gravel path while looking at the evening sky.

Meanwhile, Grayfia Lucifuge was startled because she abruptly heard Huo Yuhao's voice. 'E-Eh, Yuhao-sama! When did you...' She couldn't feel any mental probe, making this telepathy more natural than communication magic. Even though this ability isn't rare, to do it without her noticing any mental breach. And she has trained her mind through vigorous training with firm discipline for 199 years.

Grayfia shook her head because she shouldn't be surprised. After all, Huo Yuhao's image in her mind is an invincible being, and doing something like this is nothing but a walk in the park for him.

Wait.

Grayfia suddenly halted her steps and nervously looked at Huo Yuhao because didn't that mean her secret and dirty secrets had gotten exposed to him? The maid immediately covered her embarrassed face because she couldn't marry anyone now.

"Ahhh!" A soft frustrated groan escaped her mouth.

Huo Yuhao tilted his head and sighed, "Don't worry, I wouldn't see into your head, Grayfia. This telepathy is special and can only be used to communicate because I accepted you as my servant a few days ago."

"R-Really?" Grayfia hopefully looked at him.

'Damn, what's this adorable creature?'

Huo Yuhao couldn't help but question himself because Grayfia always appeared to be a professional and slightly emotional woman when meeting him. He hasn't seen her in such an adorable light like this.

"I would never pry into someone's head that wasn't my enemy. Even though people see me as a villain, I still respect one's territory. Anyway, we have arrived at the training building." He coughed and wondered what secrets Grayfia had in her mind now

"Thank you, Yuhao-sama." Grayfia tried her best to hide the embarrassment and nodded her head.

Huo Yuhao glanced away and returned, "Don't mind it."

They entered the training building and saw some people spar on a vast ground, leaving Grayfia confused. The building wasn't that big outside and decently sized to 30 meters cubic from her observation, but the interior is more expansive for some reason.

"Ah..."

"Does this place use the same technique Senior Murong demonstrated when you met me for the first time, Yuhao-sama?" She glanced at Huo Yuhao, hoping for an answer from him.

Huo Yuhao nodded and replied, "Pretty much. We used runes to expand the space inside the building and Mirror Dimension for a training room because a light spar could be destructive sometimes."

"Uh... Why did you call Murong Qianxue your senior, though?" He frowned because he hadn't paid attention to the outside world. Scathach is taking his time inside the pocket dimension, and once they go out, the bedroom is their first destination.

"After you accepted me as your servant, I went to some people in the compound for more information. Since I'm not familiar with this place, Senior Murong is the only person I could talk to before. She's nice but always puts on a cold facade until she understands my new role." The maid said. "Ah, there is no particular reason, but she likes me to call her that."

"I see..." Huo Yuhao went to the nearest training room.

"Well, you can ask her for more information about Dragon Nest."

Grayfia smiled and replied, "Noted, Yuhao-sama."

Huo Yuhao told Grayfia he could awaken her martial soul, which made the maid quiet for a few minutes. Evo said the procedure wouldn't take that long, but the system has to make the silver-haired devil's body compatible with Spirit Energy.

[Soul Pulse would cause the target to feel extreme shock and pain for a few seconds] Evo added, which caused Huo Yuhao to sigh.

After the explanation was over, Grayfia opened her mouth and said, "Do it."

"I don't mind extreme pain."

[Do you want to awaken Grayfia's Martial Soul?]

[Yes/No]

Huo Yuhao rolled his right sleeve and placed it near Grayfia's lips, making her eyes squint slightly. "Bite onto my arm. It would help you suppress the urge to cry later." He said casually.

"U-Um... Okay." Grayfia gently bit onto his arm.

"Are you ready?" Huo Yuhao asked, to which the maid responded with a nod.

He pressed the yes button and watched Grayfia's eyes widen in shock as her entire body shook. She bit Huo Yuhao's arm and hugged him while a thousand suns seemed to burn her from the inside.

"Uugh..." Grayfia groaned, feeling a gentle pat on her head.

"There, there."

"Everything would be fine." Huo Yuhao comforted Grayfia, sensing Spirit Energy flowing inside her body.

[You have awakened Grayfia Lucifuge's Martial Soul]

[Propator & Ennoia]

[Name: Propator]

[Type: Martial Soul/Tool-Type]

[Grade: SS+]

[Description: A black handgun with the ability to manipulate time]

[Name: Ennoia]

[Type: Martial Soul/Tool-Type]

[Grade: SS+]

[Description: A silver handgun with the ability to manipulate space]

Huo Yuhao was surprised because Grayfia awakened twin martial souls with broken innate skills. Even though he was sure, both guns possessed a limitation on how much they could manipulate time and space. And At the end of the day, the silver-haired maid could become much stronger now.

"Congratulations, Grayfia." He commented, but she didn't look happy for some reason.

"I-I'm sorry... I've committed a big crime." Tears dropped from Grayfia's eyes.

"Eh?"

Huo Yuhao gradually looked down at his right arm, seeing a light bite mark on the skin, and said, "It's fine, Grayfia. I can regenerate anytime to heal the bite mark."

"See." He showed her flawless skin with no marks. Grayfia felt conflicted, but then Huo Yuhao's new words astounded her. "Since you felt wrong, then what about this? I'll punish you."

"Please punish me, Yuhao-sama!" She eagerly responded.

"Mm... Good. I'll use one of my original techniques." Huo Yuhao warmed his fingers and placed them near Grayfia's bum. "Gentle Love Tap."

PA~!!

"AAHHN~!"

A decisive palm attack to make one experience pain landed on Grayfia's rear and made her moan. The sheer noise from clapping flesh echoed in the training room, which sounded lewder than it should have been.

'P-Pervert!' Bing Di yelled from the spirit sea, covering her face with a handkerchief.

'Hmm... That should be painful, but why did she look happy? Wait, is that cry of happiness??' Tian Meng rubbed her eyes while seeing Grayfia.

Eluxia tried to cover Helena's ears from outside corruption and commented, 'I hope Helena doesn't grow that way.'

"T-Thank you for the punishment, Yuhao-sama." Grayfia blushed hard and felt her rear burning in pain and maybe a little pleasure. Yes, just a little bit.

Huo Yuhao looked at his hand and wondered why he didn't use Gentle Love Tap when playing with Scathach in bed. What a waste.

"Let's start your training."

Grayfia was about to ask for more punishment but decided not to because Huo Yuhao had issued the training. "Mm." She nodded, listening to how Spirit Masters cultivated their strengths from him.

"Hello~! Anyone here?" Qianye Ying'er joined them fifteen minutes later, bringing food for Huo Yuhao.

"What's that?" Huo Yuhao eyed the paper bag in Qianye Ying'er hand.

The golden-haired lady giggled and answered, "Cheeseburger! You haven't eaten anything for 31 days, no? Let's eat together, Yuhao~!"

"Grayfia will take a while. Sure, let's eat together, Ying'er." Huo Yuhao glanced at Grayfia on the ground with a black spirit ring around 99.690 years old.

However, Scathach suddenly barked in and sniffed something with a smug on her face. "Hmm, What's this? I smell something..." She said playfully.

Qianye Ying'er frowned and asked, "What's it, teacher?"

"Virgin," Scathach replied immediately, causing the golden-haired girl to fall onto the floor.

"N-No way..." Qianye Ying'er couldn't believe her ears. "I-I thought you guys were recovering in that house."

"Get good, Ying'er. Hehehe~!!" Scathach lifted her chest proudly.

"Y-You..."

Huo Yuhao facepalmed on the side, "Can we just eat?"
