Chapter 4: An All-rounder

“Is it Warrior Lei Yuan?”

When she heard Lei Yuan’s voice, Ofia was stunned. Then, she recalled the conversation they had had earlier that day and smiled.

“Suo Ya, let him in.”

Lei Yuan walked into the room. Ofia pointed at the stack of books on the table.

“The secret manuals there range from low-level to high-level techniques, all of which can be used to cultivate the physique.”

“Thank you.”

Looking at the dozen books in front of him, Lei Yuan could guess that Ofia was using the excuse of cultivation to keep him in the palace. But he had planned to cultivate anyway, so it did not matter if he stayed here for a few more days.

After thanking Ofia, Lei Yuan rushed back to his own room and began to diligently cultivate.

In the modern era where he was from, Lei Yuan had never come into contact with such things. Therefore, even he was not aware that his talent for cultivation in this world he had transmigrated to was extremely high.

Although the secret manuals that Ofia had provided were very basic, there were at least a dozen of them.

Ordinary cultivators would usually require at least a year and a half to figure out one basic technique. However, Lei Yuan only spent half a month to completely understand all of these secret manuals.

When Lei Yuan returned the books to Ofia, she was a little confused.

“What’s wrong, Warrior Lei Yuan? Are these secret manuals not suitable for you?”

“It’s not that.” Lei Yuan rubbed his nose in embarrassment and chuckled, “I just finished reading them and wanted to ask if you have any other secret manuals.”

“You finished reading all of them!?” Ofia’s eyes widened in disbelief.

Lei Yuan did not think there was anything wrong with what he said. But after he saw the shock on Ofia’s face, a hint of doubt flashed in his eyes.

“What’s wrong? Am I too slow?”

As expected of the Queen, Ofia recomposed herself. “No, you’re not slow at all!”

After realizing Lei Yuan’s talent, Ofia was so excited that her breathing started to quicken. Such a genius would definitely help her break the curse!

Her heart was filled with the desire for him, and Ofia’s attitude toward Lei Yuan was even gentler. “Since you’ve finished reading all this, what other secret manuals do you want to read? I’ll send someone to find it for you.”

Although there were more in the palace, they were secret manuals belonging to the royal family. No matter how much hope Ofia had for Lei Yuan, she would not foolishly give him everything.

“There is one thing…”

Speaking of secret manuals, Lei Yuan did wish to acquire something in particular. While cultivating with the secret manuals that Ofia had given him, Lei Yuan had gradually come to understand this world.

In this world, other than the secret manuals Ofia had given to Lei Yuan which featured one cultivation method, there was actually a second method.

Spells are skills that are more inclined toward magicians, and most of them are related to long-range attacks or healing magic.

After learning about the existence of such secret manuals, Lei Yuan immediately asked the system if he could cultivate it. After receiving an affirmative answer, Lei Yuan became even more assured and bold.

“I want secret manuals for the cultivation of spells.”

“You want to practice dual cultivation?” Ofia’s eyes widened. When Lei Yuan nodded, she immediately tried to dissuade him. “Dual cultivation is very dangerous. It has been a long time since we had a dual cultivator. The most recent one was a hundred years ago, but he died from being torn apart by the backlash of practicing two techniques at the same time.”

Lei Yuan waved his hand indifferently. “Your Majesty, don’t worry. I believe I can do it.”

He had the system with him, so he was not afraid at all. Not to mention, dual cultivation would not only increase his strength, but also double his Cultivation Points. He was not just looking out for his own wellbeing. There was also a dragon beside him who was crying for food.

The energy that a dragon-type spirit beast required was much greater than what he needed. Only by constantly cultivating and earning Cultivation Points would he gain enough to buy higher quality spirit crystals.

“But Warrior Lei Yuan, your body is already very strong. Why do you still need to cultivate spells?”

Ofia was still trying to dissuade him, but Lei Yuan had already made up his mind. No matter how much she said, there was no changing his decision. Seeing him like this, Ofia could only grit her teeth and compromise. She agreed to take him to see the archmage of the Aifell Empire.

As the archmage of an empire, Olo naturally had his own pride. He did not expect Lei Yuan to even consider dual cultivation. His good impression of the warrior instantly disappeared, and there was even a hint of disdain in his heart.

‘He’s just a warrior, yet he’s so arrogant!’ Olo was extremely unhappy. However, this was something that the Queen had personally agreed to. No matter how unwilling Olo was, he could only teach Lei Yuan wholeheartedly.

It was a different feeling to have someone guiding him from the side compared to reading by himself. Very soon, Lei Yuan felt another force in his body. The difference between this new energy and his body’s original energy was that this new energy was lighter. When it flowed inside his body, he could feel its sensitivity and its fear of the original energy.

Lei Yuan calmed down and slowly followed the instructions given by the system to merge the two powers together.

Ofia watched nervously from the side. This was the first time she had seen someone dual cultivate, and her heart was filled with anxiety.

Time passed bit by bit. Just as Ofia’s anxiety was about to reach its peak, Lei Yuan suddenly opened his eyes. Then, a powerful force spread out from him!

Boom!

This power rushed in all directions with great momentum. Even though Olo had reacted quickly, the impact still forced him to cough out a mouthful of blood.

Lei Yuan had succeeded! He had actually fused two powers together and achieved dual cultivation!

“Someone actually succeeded in dual cultivation… This is simply, simply…”

The servants who could not withstand the power were knocked unconscious. The ones who were still standing gaped at Lei Yuan.

‘There’s finally someone who could dual cultivate!’

For a moment, the gazes that were on Lei Yuan were filled with shock and disbelief.

When Lei Yuan recovered and stood up, the system’s voice sounded in his ear.

“Ding! Congratulations to you for completing dual cultivation. You have received 56 Charm Points and 70 Worship Points. Note: Because your Charm is maxed out, the points obtained for this attribute will be automatically added into your appearance and stamina attributes instead.”

‘In other words, as long as I gain the admiration of others, I’ll become more handsome and stronger? This is too awesome!’

Lei Yuan did not know if it was his imagination, but after the system finished speaking, he felt his body change slightly.

A woman exclaimed, “Oh my god, why do I feel that Lord Hero has suddenly become so handsome?!”

Lei Yuan’s expression remained calm, but he secretly gave the system a thumbs-up.

After he bid Ofia farewell and returned to his room, the system gave Lei Yuan another 100 Evolution Points due to his increase in strength. Lei Yuan did not hesitate to exchange them all for new secret manuals.

After grasping the wonderful feeling of power, Lei Yuan did not delay any longer and began a new session of cultivation in a hurry. By the time he stopped, it was already late that night.

The dragon was hugging a spirit crystal and sleeping soundly by his side. Lei Yuan, who felt a little tired from his cultivation, suddenly felt a craving for snacks.

Speaking of which, he had not really tried the delicacies here. At the thought of this, Lei Yuan was immediately energized.

Since there were very few people in the palace who were his equal, Lei Yuan snuck out of the palace and decided to go for a stroll in the town.

However, just as he was about to step out of the palace, his vision was suddenly shrouded by a fog. Looking at the surrounding scenery, Lei Yuan did not know whether to laugh or cry.

He remembered learning that he had initially set up this fog array to prevent others from ambushing him, but he had fallen into it himself.

Lei Yuan could not help but sigh as he calmly broke through the fog array and continued on his way. The array was actually not that difficult to overcome, as it was mainly used to confuse the minds of enemies. As long as one’s willpower was strong enough, they could easily walk out of the fog.

However, when Lei Yuan finally walked out of the fog array, a clear voice came from above.

“Huh? You actually came out of the fog array?”
