Reborn 10 - Demonic Valor (8 page)

Li nodded her head but she didn’t look convinced of Ash’s words. Giving her a light kiss again Ash pulled her close and closed his eyes.

Over the next three weeks Ash and the others were able to travel without trouble. Ash had been able to raise his dimension door two levels. With each level the distance he could travel increased but the cost increased with the distance. The largest problem that Ash found with the new ability was that he had to be able to see where he was going to travel there. It would also work if he could envision it clearly so he had been working on it by closing his eyes each time he activated the ability.

The first day Ash had tried to activated the ability without looking where he was going the obsidian door appeared then large cracks appeared on its surface before it shattered like an overheated piece of glass. It took three days before Ash could use the ability with a 50% success rate without looking directly as he designated target. After a little over a week he could now do it with a 90% chance of success.

Ash also worked on leveling his new port ability at night before sleeping. At first he tried to use it to move his sword but just like with the dimension door ability it activated draining his MP but the sword never appeared. When he couldn’t move the sword Ash tried something smaller and soon learned that the biggest thing that he could move was something the size of a small dagger.

Though he didn’t use it as much Ash was able to raise port to its second level. Once it reached level 2 not only did the distance raise slightly it also allowed him to teleport something slightly larger though it only upgraded from a small dagger to one with a slightly larger blade. Still it gave him hope that once it was a high enough level he could port his sword which was his ultimate goal.

Other than training his abilities Ash spent time with his wives. When he had been in the demon kingdom he had been with them almost all day every day but he hadn’t really spent any quality time with them just sitting and talking since most of it was spent within the depths of one labyrinth after another.

Ash still couldn’t say that he truly loved any of them like he did Emelia but he knew that if any of them were to disappear he would feel the loss. He didn’t know why but this made him happy as it was a sign that they were becoming people he considered true friends.

Though since they were on the road he couldn’t do anything that normally happened between married couple but each night one of them would sleep next to him enjoying his embrace while talking late into the night before sleeping.

In the three weeks they had left the lands of the previous Hawkwing duchy and already at the edge of another. So far there had been no attacks. Not even the normal thieves that prayed on travelers appeared but that was most likely do to the fact they were so heavily armed.

Tonight was only the fourth night that they had the chance to sleep in a decent in. There had been more chances to sleep within the confines of an inn but they looked so run down that Ash was afraid that he would spent most the night fighting off bugs that lived in the bed he had opted for them to sleep under the stars.

Tonight they were in a fairly large border town and since money was not a problem Ash picked the largest inn that he could find. The room he was currently in was only slightly smaller than the room that Emelia stayed in within her own manor and the bed was so large that Ash and four of his wives could sleep comfortable. It was even long enough that Tolarea could fully stretch out on it.

Though they were in a city Ash didn’t feel very comfortable since everyone openly started at him and his escorts. There was a decent number of people with demon blood in the world but it had been a long time since full blood demons had been seen in the outside world. With ten full blood demons walking opening they were bound to draw more than a few stares.

Since it was one of the few chances that Ash had to rest in an inn Ash took the chance to pull out some blanks pieces of parchment and started to write down all his abilities. The more he looked at the more he noticed that he had neglected many of them that could be used.

Ash sighed and looked out the window as he started to think of what would happen in the future.
