Chapter 136: Leapfrog
Xavier decided to come out by the lakeside.
While there was a new river by the settlement, its potency still couldn’t match the lake’s. And Luca seemed to need the strongest available.
But aside from setting the little chipmunk into a comfortable position, Xavier was actually out of other options save for one long shot.
The elders.
As expected, they were out by the farmland when Xavier looked for them to ask for help, hoping they had an idea of what was happening with Luca.
Fortunately, they did.
However, when the elders saw their passed-out Master, they immediately jumped to hide.
They wouldn’t survive a possible lighting tribulation and had to stay far away, only hollering at Xavier to be extra careful.
According to their personal experience, their Master was about to have a breakthrough.
But Frankly, the elders weren’t sure why that was still possible considering their Master’s spiritual energy.
They honestly couldn’t feel his core, and that was usually because someone of higher cultivation could mask their trace.
That was generally true, but who told their Master to return to his body that hadn’t been appropriately tempered?
It was a case of immense spiritual energy trying to awkwardly fit inside a small box.
And the small box would have to be upgraded or would likely end up shattering under pressure.
Luca had been using his spiritual abilities and guided Xavier every now and then, but he never had to do a series of cycling where he depleted himself to this extent, only to take in more spiritual energy to continue guiding.
And it wasn’t like the spiritual sea didn’t take precautions to survive in this body.
It did and was innocent.
Luca was locked out of his abilities until his body could cope with his actual spiritual energy. And to think his energy had been dispersed into the space until he was ready.
But Luca had been determined to cure his father and, in his determination, bypassed the safeguard for his fragile core.
Now, his spiritual sea was trying to forcefully recover what it had released while reforming the core into a capable container.
A feat that would surely be noticed by prying eyes.
Luca was going to jump—leapfrogging this body’s current state in an attempt to recover his last spiritual constitution.
If anything, the elders were right on the money.
It was just that they didn’t factor in the place.
They were untouchable inside Luca’s Dungeon space for the most part.
But that wasn’t exactly the same for those people outside who were facing a tense standoff.
Ollie initially had a plan.
He just didn’t expect the people from the duchy to be that alarmed.
If not for his earlier contribution and personal effort to look for his brother, then the staff would’ve easily doubted him. But under the guise of seeing this shorty with their Young Lord, the followers managed to restrain themselves.

Then Jax heard a sudden but low rumble before hearing a sharp, explosive sound.
*CRACK!*
A direct hit.
The docked battleship actually shook with this sudden impact.
“Wha—what?!” Ollie almost toppled over from losing his balance and had to be fished out before he face-planted.
The people of the duchy were suddenly alert. Something that would attack a fortified battleship in the middle of the Royal Military Academy’s parking lot must have balls of steel.
Butler Gary ordered Steward Han to check on the attacker, expecting an immediate report. But before they could check on anything came another strike.
*BOOM!*
What the actual hell? Thought Butler Gary, who assumed that someone was out for the House of Kyros.
Then Steward Han came running back with a very unusual report as Jax heard another rumbling brewing.
“It… It’s not exactly an attack. But we’ve been hit by lightning twice, Butler Gary!”
Steward Han actually assumed he was seeing things when he looked at the external monitoring of the Battleship, only to learn that they were actually hit by two consecutive strikes!
Ollie wasn’t the sharpest tool in the shed, but he knew it was unlikely to get hit by lightning twice and in spots other than the designated rods.
Of course, this didn’t apply when traveling into space, but the probability of this happening was as unlikely as him being married to a man!
*BOOM!*
A third fucking strike.
Now, ignoring everything else, the sound could make anyone flinch. And while the innocent Battleship weathered the strikes for these ungrateful people, the passengers were scrambling to determine why their lightning rods were being bypassed.
Bypassed would be the correct way to look at it.
While the durable Battleship was doing its best to endure these bizarre strikes amidst all these lightning rods, a certain someone was in the middle of reforming his core.
Luca was unaware of what was happening around him and was focused on the feeling of the energy forcing its way into his spiritual center.
He knew something was wrong the moment he started seeing things after the final round of curing the duke. But he was just happy he succeeded.
All he could hope for was for his father to be alright.
The little chipmunk wasn’t even aware that he had been at this for hours and had faced and luckily repelled lightning tribulations thanks to the intervention of one durable Battleship.
But if there were those who were aware of the gravity of the situation, it would be D-29 and Sid, the guardian mecha.
This wasn’t the system’s first foray when it came to the Host’s medical scares, but this was the first time they’d had to weather a raging storm this bad within the Host’s spiritual sea.
In particular, Sid had been trying to hold on for so long that he was amazed he still existed.
While it was common to have disturbances, it had never reached this point where everything felt like it was about to collapse or be sucked into some vortex.
Not to mention the Host’s unstable vitals!
But what could they do when one was a mecha who needed a pilot, and another was a system with no physical body?
D-29 could only lament the plans that were taking too long to see fruition and could only wrack itself for other ways.
Xavier was in a similar boat as he could only watch and was told not to mess with someone who was in the middle of a breakthrough.
But this changed when the elders called his attention, indicating that something was going awfully wrong.
And it wasn’t just wrong, but catastrophic.
The Dungeon was integrated with Luca’s sea of consciousness, and right about now, they were all practically in it.
Trust the elders to know about the scares of imploding spaces and wanted to inform Xavier that the Master needed assistance.
“How can we help him?” Xavier asked, suddenly frantic from hearing something so disturbing.
“Remember that revive pill we were talking about? You can try that. If it’s the right pill, then it should help!” Said Elder Wei.
“A revive pill? I heard about it, but where do I get one?” Come to think of it, no one asked because they didn’t think it was polite to poke around Luca’s secrets—especially not with something that sounded awfully important.
But now, he could only belatedly regret such thinking!
Well, there was one last thing.
Sigh.
Xavier sighed in exasperation as he really didn’t want to resort to this method.
With a heavy heart, he decided it was now time to deal with his reticent mecha.
“Sid.”
