The Legacy System

Chapter 374 - 374: Cultivation & Talk Between Siblings

After fighting with Ice for more than 2 or 3 hours in the bed, which ended with her loss of course, Eric could finally enter his System Shop to purchase his necessities.

Since his Legacy System was still in hibernation then he could only purchase from the things that were already listed on the System Shop window.

While most of those things weren't particularly useful to him at the moment, there were a few things that were, like Alchemic knowledge level 2.

No matter where, no matter when the richest people alive would always be the drug dealers, doctors, and people in the entertainment.

If one looked at things in really crude terms then Alchemists were just high-level drug dealers. That could be seen just from the deals, and money he got from the big families for the formulae of the potions.

People would normally spend more than a few lives to earn that money, while he was able to earn it in just a short moment.

Certainly, that had its own problem and difficulties, as he was treated like a golden eggs fool, but nonetheless, that money was on his hands.

Now with the help of Panda, he was thinking of going international, as the country that had a deal with him had disappointed him terribly.

As soon as he bought the Alchemic Knowledge level 2 for 5000 SP points, Eric felt a terrible headache strike him like someone stabbed his head with a knife.

But he had already gone through worse, so he just maned up the pain, and waited for it to slowly disperse as he started going through the new information.

His step was quite bold actually as even before he had become a Level 1 Alchemist he was already going for Level 2, but the truth was that he felt that it was necessary.

He needed to be a Level 2 Alchemist in order to better understand the medium potions formulae and the way they were concocted in order to give them to Panda before he left.

Unnecessary to mention but right after the Level 2 Alchemist knowledge he quickly bought the formulae for the medium quality Health Potions, and Body Tempering Potions, and Spirit Potions.

Just like the first time though he had no intention of giving the Spirit Potion formulae to anyone as he bought it only for himself.

Having that big guy was certainly reassuring, especially with his physique, strength, and background. But at the same time, he would be standing out like a sore thumb.

Most treasures wouldn't be recognized in broad daylight, but once they were placed in front of their opposite they would surely stand out.

With those thoughts, Eric quickly took out some papers and pen as he started recording the formulae and the way of concoction into them.

When he was finished and pleased with his work, he quickly left them in an obvious location and then even wrote a letter with instructions for Panda, before sitting in cultivation.

At first, he seemed to have a bit of difficulty in concentrating, but soon enough he was able to feel that strange energy inside his body once again, as he started revolving it according to his manual.

What surprised him though was the fact that what he considered to be a wide road before, now seemed to be only a one-person sidewalk seen from afar.

It didn't take him a long time to understand that things had changed, and the way he looked at that energy, and his own body as a whole had changed as well.

Thinking like that he couldn't help but release an emotional sigh, as he understood that with the path he had selected to trod upon this was just the beginning.

This was just his first step towards understanding the big world around him, but also the most important step. The journey of a million-mile starts with one step.

Without losing time, Eric immediately concentrated on the energy inside his body, as he started to guide it along the sidewalk while trying to expand the way.

It was arduous and difficult, but he had already been once through it, so he had a bit of experience and could quickly get the hang of it.

At that moment all that mattered to him was cultivating and circulating that energy just like his blood circulated on its own.

Blood had the heart as a pump to make it circulate all the time, while the energy inside him or Qi could only be circulated due to his will, and effort.

As Eric was concentrated on his cultivation, Panda had been suddenly stopped in his tracks by his big sister, who was clearly in a weird mood.

Normally she would always give him a good beating without a reason whenever she saw him, but this time she was looking at him with a questioning gaze, as she asked,

"Little brother tell me everything about that 'sworn brother' of yours!"

She looked fierce and violent, but there was a weird hint of expectation and curiosity in her eyes. This was the first time that she looked like this, but what could he say about Eric.

Could he say that Eric had beaten the shit out of him, and due to their bet he had now ended up as his servant? That would be just too humiliating for him!

Especially accepting something like that in front of his big sister, was the same as asking for another beating from her. So he could only say vaguely,

"He is a weird fellow that I met on the Islands after I accomplished my mission. We started on the wrong foot, but then we clicked and became 'sworn brothers'!"

"You accomplished the mission!? Wait, that is not important now! Tell me more about him, who is he, how did you meet him exactly, what kind of person is he, and does he truly have a girlfriend!?"

"Huh!?"

Panda couldn't believe his ears at that moment, was this the same big sister that would worry about him, and terrorize him all the time?

What the hell had happened with her, he couldn't believe his ears, and eyes at that moment. Not to mention that she even had a hint of shyness as she asked about his Master.

She had thrown his achievements, and the completion of the mission to the back of her mind and considered Eric as a much more important issue.

He had heard that once a daughter is married away then she would be more of her husband, but she hadn't even started a relationship with Eric and was throwing him away.

Seeing that Panda was just looking at her with a stupefied look and not actually answering her questions, Darren Lilly seemed to turn to her true self, as she gave him a tight smack on the head, and threatened,

"Little brother, could it be that you have started to like getting beat and that you won't answer my questions without me fulfilling your wish?"

"Ah~! No, no, big sister don't even joke about it! I will tell you!"

With those words, he immediately started telling a story to her, like how he had met Eric after dealing with some trash, and that they had a men's fight.

The fight had ended up in a tie and as they were both unable to gain the advantage, they had finally decided to become 'sworn brothers' and take care of some more trash.

He told her that in his opinion Eric was a strong guy, with a lot of potential to grow stronger, but his only shortcoming was that he was fickle with his relationships, and he had a lot of women.

Ice was just one of the many!

He was hoping that after these words his sister would create at least an unfavorable opinion of his Master, despite telling a few lies. What he didn't know was that he had actually hit the bull's eye.

Hearing those words Lilly looked at her brother with a serious gaze at first, then wonder-struck her, due to Eric's strength.

As she knew better than anyone about her little brother's strength, and a human who was able to keep up with him was certainly not someone simple.

As someone with the bloodline of a Gold Titan what she appreciated the most at a man was certainly his strength and attitude.

While Eric was a bit of a wimp in her eyes, hearing about his strength made her think highly of him, as a strand of happiness started shining over her beautiful face.

Even though it couldn't be said that she looked like a little girl in love, her interest in Eric had surely been ignited.

Seeing that look on her face Panda couldn't help but frown and think that perhaps he hadn't been extremely clear with his words, as he said,

"Big sister, it can't be that you are interested in him right!? He is extremely fickle and has a lot of women!"

Lilly was immediately angered seeing that her little brother had interrupted her thoughts, as she said,

"Hmph~! Since when it's your business whether I am interested in him or not? Furthermore, what is wrong with an excellent man having more than one woman!?

Isn't our esteemed father, and everyone in our clan the same? Are you saying that they aren't good men? I think that father will certainly love to hear more about this when we return!"

The moment that Panda heard those words his face lost all colors, and he looked just like some kind of pale lifeless zombie.

If there was one man that he feared more than his big sister, then it was certainly that brawn head father of his…
