Isekai Adventure in the Dimensional Cube-Chapter 1447 - 1018: Robbing the Cradle?

The next day.

When Melo visited Reiger’s room again, the first thing she saw was the scene of Jelina and Hilune, the two young Nymph girls, dutifully arranging clothes for the just-awoken Reiger.

"It seems like you had a pleasant evening last night, sir."

Melo said teasingly, with an indescribably peculiar tone.

"It was alright."

Reiger glanced at the now-not-so-serious long princess and responded indifferently.

Indeed, he had quite an enjoyable night.

It must be said, the renowned beauty of the Nymphs over the years was not mere exaggeration.

As beings highly attuned to the water element, whether it was Jelina or Hilune, when they entered the bath to help Reiger bathe, they displayed exquisite control of the water elements.

Under the control of their slender hands, wherever they touched, the purest streams of water would gently flow, making Reiger feel as if his entire body was being cleansed by warm spring water. Coupled with the enticing presence of the two voluptuous maids, the sensation was truly indescribable to outsiders.

The two Nymph girls were also adept at using their strengths, singing softly into Reiger’s ears with their heavenly voices while helping him bathe, even dancing gracefully in front of him later, their beautiful dance and curves almost making Reiger, who originally had no intention of developing a more-than-friendly relationship with these two Nymphs, lose his grip.

Fortunately, he was no novice; otherwise, with the temptation of these two pure yet alluring Nymphs, he most likely wouldn’t have been able to resist.

This also shows that Reiger, after all, is a man; no matter how stable his mindset, unless he has issues with attraction, moments like these are unavoidable. It’s just unknown if this is considered a kind of regret.

Of course, this indescribable extreme pleasure is one thing; the changes after a night are another.

Reiger silently felt his own body.

With the once-damaged "Gate" already repaired, the vast Magic Power within his body was no longer unusable by Reiger as it was in the past.

Now, this immense Magic Power flowed slowly through Reiger’s body, much like blood coursing through his veins, filling his entire being.

However, if Reiger was not mistaken, after that enchanting night, his Magic Power seemed to have increased slightly.

This was quite an astonishing event.

"Whether in the Source World or on the Akasha Continent, the Magic Power people are born with is fixed; if it’s more, it’s more, if it’s less, it’s less, and it doesn’t change due to external factors or age."

"This is also the reason why, on the Akasha Continent, some people, even with excellent Magic potential, still can’t learn Magic because their Magic Power is too little, making Magic unusable."

"Inhabitants of the Source World generally are born with more Magic Power than those on the Akasha Continent, and almost everyone has the capacity to learn Magic, but their Magic Power, too, is determined by birth and doesn’t change later."

"Yet, under the service of Jelina and Hilune, my Magic Power actually showed signs of increase."

This is because the Nymphs’ life essence purified Reiger’s bloodline, enhancing his life potential.

With an increase in inherent life potential, it’s akin to an enhancement of innate potential, hence the phenomenon of Magic Power growth.

"No wonder some see bonding with a Nymph as a major turning point in their lives. I haven’t even done anything indecent with these two girls yet, and I’ve already gained such benefits. If it were a real bond, and it continued long-term, it would indeed be a transformation."

Reiger roughly understood why the Nymph race was fervently pursued by men of other races, and preyed upon by ill-intentioned individuals.

This is simply an excellent fortune turning waste into treasure—an incredibly tempting prospect for those with ambition but not high potential or aptitude.

Moreover, with Nymphs generally possessing exceptional beauty, heavenly singing voices, exquisite dance moves, and figures, what man could resist upon seeing them?

Had it not been for the grace of the gods, had I not awakened such exaggerated skills as the "Fool’s Obsession," I might have been reluctant to let go of these two Nymphs after tasting the flavor.

"Your father is quite considerate, willing to give such gifts."

Reiger spoke meaningfully to Melo.

"As long as it can assist you, sir."

Melo replied with an undiminished smile.

"Then I express my gratitude once again for your sentiments."

Reiger nodded.

Enhancement of one’s potential, no matter what, is ultimately a good thing.

The growth in Magic Power is also a boon for Reiger.

Previously, the Magic Power of the body was somewhat dispensable because Reiger always refined spiritual powers into Magic Power, rarely using the Magic Power of his body. But since Reiger delved into sorcery, and with the explosive increase in spell output, managing both systems’ consumption without adverse effects has become challenging.

Indeed, Reiger’s spiritual power is not weak, but even the strongest has limits.

The reason he hasn’t often faced a shortage of spiritual power is entirely due to the astonishing recovery speed of his spiritual power.

The highest-level "Mental Recovery" development ability almost ensures that whenever Reiger expends spiritual power, the consumed portion is immediately recovered.

With this development ability in place, Reiger’s spiritual power felt like an endless pit, nearly never running dry.

However, if Reiger wanted to maintain that outrageous output power of spellcasting and use it efficiently, ensuring the consumption matches the recovery speed, without causing endurance issues for himself, then Reiger couldn’t use up his spiritual power on magic. Otherwise, he would have to either reduce the spell output or risk the recovery speed of spiritual power not keeping up with the consumption rate.

In other words, the limit is right there, it’s just up to Reiger on how to use and exploit it.

Considering this, when Reiger was organizing his power system in the magic world, he had already decided that from now on, he would dedicate all his spiritual power to refining spell power to support its use, while using the body’s own Magic Power to cast magic.

He believed that with the Magic Power of this body, sufficient to perform Tactical Level Magic, it should be enough to cast most magic spells, aiding him in battle.

With such factors, an increase in the body’s Magic Power was naturally great news for Reiger.

Perhaps noticing how beneficial Reiger found this, Melo’s smile became more pronounced.

"This is what we should do," Melo brushed aside the topic, seemingly not wanting Reiger to be too polite, and said, "Would you like to go for a walk, sir? At this time, you can observe the knights’ daily drills on the deck of the Sphinx."

"A play?" Reiger was intrigued and said, "Alright, let’s go take a look."

Seeing Reiger agree, Melo’s mood improved further.

"Then please follow me, sir."

Melo made an inviting gesture.

With a flick of his hand, Reiger summoned Marfa’s Sword, which was hung on the wall, to fly over in its sheath and land in his hand, exciting the two Nymph girls nearby.

It was their first time seeing such an obedient holy sword, and even more so, seeing the holy sword with such spirit.

"The legend is true, after all."

"The master is indeed the future savior."

The two Nymph girls couldn’t help but gaze at Reiger with admiration and adoration.

Without witnessing this scene, Reiger had already followed Melo out of the room, prompting the two reacting Nymph girls to quickly follow.

......

Sphinx, warship deck.

At the break of dawn, the deck was already filled with fully armed knights.

They bathed in sunlight, practicing their drills with grandeur.

Despite being on the high-altitude warship deck, due to the magic barrier set up by the warship, the gusty winds didn’t blow onto the deck, allowing people onboard to freely come to the deck for activities at any time.

"Hah!"

"Hya!"

After completing their drills, the knights began engaging in paired sparring, causing magic power fluctuations and the sound of weapons clashing to fill the deck, creating a grim atmosphere.

Reiger, Melo, and the Nymph girls came to the deck together, witnessing the knights sparring.

Beside them, Naisa, wielding a staff, naturally was also present.

As soon as Reiger left the room, the Female Pope seemed to sense it too, immediately leaving her room to meet up with Reiger outside.

Because of this, the Female Pope witnessed the two Nymph girls trailing closely behind Reiger.

"......"

Naisa stared intently at the two Nymph girls, and although she didn’t speak, the discontent in her eyes almost overflowed.

"Your empire is truly despicable, Princess Highness,"

The usually gentle and dignified Female Pope uttered such close-to-sarcastic words, suggesting how terrible her mood was.

"How can you say that, Your Holiness?" Melo feigned innocence and said, "The empire is also looking out for the gentleman’s best interest."

"Should our church thank your empire on behalf of the gentleman?" Naisa unusually retorted, "Nymphs, and two of them no less. It is said that in his younger days, His Majesty personally went to the Nymph tribe under your empire’s protection to seek a good match, but returned empty-handed as there were no girls of marriageable age at the time, until these two appeared, rekindling some hope."

"It’s surprising that His Majesty could bear to send the long-awaited two marriageable Nymphs all at once."

These words left Jelina and Hilune exchanging glances and wiped the smile off Melo’s face.

Reiger couldn’t help but pause and look at Melo.

Well, well, well...

So, your dad had thought about robbing the cradle too?
