--- Chapter 45 ---

After the cleaning day, Dragon Nest's mood becomes much better than before. Scathach revealed that Huo Yuhao killed the traitor's group on Jaya's Peak and took over the security system within the base. Everyone was shocked, but the horrible deeds of the traitors made everything easier to explain.

There is no such thing as a protest because the higher-ups have dealt with it based on Huo Yuhao's judgment beforehand. He was all prepared and ended in a better light than the traitor, which was so clear with Qianye Ying'er influence. Qianye Ying'er has organized everything for this moment because as soon as Huo Yuhao made a move on the traitor, her Fanclub/Cult began their plan.

Huo Yun'er watched over the Dragon Nest's Luck Qi and noticed the "great." changes after Huo Yuhao's action. Since the pest cleansed off the organization, a more excellent Luck Qi started to grow on the land.

...

...

Main Base, Naga's Den.

At Huo Yuhao's house, Huo Yun'er sat in the living room with a cup of tea. She glanced at Qianye Ying'er and Scathach that just returned a few minutes ago. It's not hard to notice something wrong.

"How is the public reaction?" Huo Yun'er asked while sipping her tea.

Qianye Ying'er smiled slightly and replied, "Well, everything is according to my plan. Even though some people are skeptical, they can't really fight the truth with evidence. Yuhao has been doing so many things in the past 3.5 years, making most of them worried about his current condition."

"Liu Mei would deal with the rest. We had to wait for them to realize those pests' bad deeds on Dragon Nest so far because Tang Wu'er has created some influence on the normal member."

"The reaction will become better soon." Scathach continued while sitting on the sofa. "Even though Tang Wu'er was a wolf in the sheep crowd, some sheep could easily tell something was wrong with her. It would grow into one united view against her in the end."

"And it's not like she can return to the living world to prove her point." She sneered indifferently.

The Auspicious Monarch walked into the living room and made everyone look at her. She shook her a little and took over the couch near Scathach. "Yuhao's condition is better now. It's just excessive usage of his willpower." She stated, which caused them to be relieved.

"That's why I can't heal Hao'er with my spiritual energy." Huo Yun'er sighed while closing her eyes. "Haoshoku Haki, an extreme manifestation of one's willpower. It's such a terrifying method to utilize spiritual energy because you don't just control it. You expressed your influence over others with it."

"Haoshoku Haki?" The Auspicious Monarch tilted her head adorably to the left slightly. She was confused because she had never heard such a term in her entire life.

Scathach opened her mouth and explained, "Haki is Dragon Nest's spiritual energy training method passed down by Huo Yuhao. It's branched to three fields, Kenbunshoku(Observation), Busoshoku(Armament), and Haoshoku(Conqueror)."

"Most people could only train Kenbunshoku and Busoshoku, leaving Haoshoku Haki alone because this type of Haki has a different requirement."

"One had to possess the qualities of a king."

"Qualities of a king..." The Auspicious Monarch muttered while looking at them with a frown. She noticed faint spiritual energy coming out from these ladies' bodies. "All of you possess it?"

Qianye Ying'er giggled and replied, "Yup. It's rare, but some people in the Dragon Nest possess Haoshoku Haki. However, our Haoshoku Haki is weaker and different than Yuhao because his qualities are higher than all of us combined."

"My body "always." shivered when having contact with Yuhao's Haoshoku Haki. It's not just powerful, but also tramples over weak will like sea waves."

The Auspicious Monarch was quiet when hearing such a statement from Qianye Ying'er. She has never heard of such a bizarre way to train one's spiritual energy and has to be born with it. The qualities of a king aren't a foreign subject to her because she was also born with them, but it seemed to be different in their cases.

'No, this is why I can't see Huo Yuhao's mystery. There is always a thick mist that resists my divine eyes.' She thought to herself after observing Huo Yuhao for three years.

"Well, He's our King." Scathach lastly added with a chuckle, to which everyone agreed immediately.

...

...

A month passed, and Huo Yuhao finally awakened from his deep slumber. Huo Yuhao opened his eyes and revealed royal blue eyes that shone with golden hues dimly. He breathed in and out, sucking the spirit energy into the atmosphere.

"Haki..." Huo Yuhao's mind ran faster than usual, which increased his perception of the surroundings. He looked around slowly and immersed himself in this odd condition.

[Haki]

[Kenbunshoku Haki: SSS+ Rank]

[Busoshoku Haki: SSS+ Rank]

[Haoshoku Haki: EX Rank]

[Your Spiritual Energy has evolved to Spiritual Sea]

[You have obtained the Supreme King's Presence]

[You have acquired the Lesser Divine Sense]

[You have unlocked the Voice of All Things]

"How long have I been sleeping, Evo?" Huo Yuhao massaged his forehead for a moment and heard Evo's notification. He frowned and scanned the system panel with a weird look on his face.

[30 days and 6 hours] Evo answered with the usual dull tone.

He laughed weakly and commented, "That's longer than I assumed. The last thing I remember was mom, Ying'er, and Shishou's voices."

Huo Yuhao unhurriedly sat on the bed and saw some medicinal incense on the desk. "Thank you, Ying'er." He chuckled and meditated while entering his Spiritual Sea. It was a vast white sea filled with Spiritual Energy and at least denser than usual, causing him to feel at ease just by seeing it.

After a few minutes, Huo Yuhao adjusted his thought and slowed it down to normal. His perception was abnormal since waking up, and he couldn't control it very well. It's not that bad because some problems that annoyed him before seemed to become easier to solve now, but adapting to it would take quite a while.

Huo Yuhao suddenly was awakened by several voices that entered his mind and frowned because the Voice of All things seemed to be on passively. He could hear white noises from inanimate objects, which was bizarre.

[Name: Voice of All Things]

[Type: Innate Skill]

[Grade: SSS]

[Description: The Voice of All Things is a "mysterious." and excessively "rare." ability that allows one to communicate with people, creatures, and objects in the world around them without the need for a physical message, such as speech or writing]

[The Voice of All Things shouldn't be mistaken for the innate ability to understand animal communication. It's more like hearing the animals' thoughts or understanding the message in their heart. It's somewhat like Telepathy]

Huo Yuhao returned to the real world and picked out Frost from the Inventory. He could hear faint noises from the dagger and smiled because Frost was worried about his condition. "Thank you for worrying about me." He replied while brushing the edge gently.

The Ice Elven Queen's Dagger released a faint blue light that seemed to respond to Huo Yuhao's replies, thus making him chuckle amusingly for a moment. Such ability and experience.

"What about the other perks? Like Lesser Divine Sense?"

[Name: Lesser Divine Sense]

[Type: Spiritual Technique]

[Grade: SSS]

[Description: Lesser Divine Sense is an ability to perceive the world around you. It doesn't consume spiritual energy and has a wide range compared to Kenbunshoku Haki]

Huo Yuhao activated his Kenbunshoku Haki, which caused an enormous amount of information to flood his mind. The ability to observe has reached the whole continent's range and to the "extreme details." as well, leaving him speechless.

"Young lord, when will you return?" A familiar voice from one's heart comes to Huo Yuhao.

"Boss, please get well soon."

"Brat, I don't have enough booze here. Help~!"

"My lord~!"

"Young master Yuhao."

"Hao'er is awake~?!"

"Hmm? My disciple is awake already."

"Human, you're awake." The Auspicious Monarch entered the room with a tray filled with a ginger-like smell. She approached a cup of medicinal brew on the table and sat on the chair beside Huo Yuhao's bed.

"Yeah." Huo Yuhao replied naturally.

"Good, drink this. Ying'er made it for you." She added while pushing the cup at Huo Yuhao.

[Name: Herb Brew]

[Type: Medicine]

[Grade: S]

[Description: A warm and delicious Herb Brew made of several rare herbs and ingredients. It could support and strengthen one's physical condition through daily consumption]

Huo Yuhao grasped the cup and felt the warmth from the outer layer. He drank the Herb Brew slowly and placed the cup back on the table a few seconds later. That was great medicine for him because he hadn't moved much for a month.

"Ah, You never told me your name, Auspicious Monarch?" He suddenly asked, which caused the beast lord to giggle a little.

The Auspicious Monarch amusingly shook her head at Huo Yuhao and replied, "You're a month late to ask that question. Well, better late than never."

"My name is Yuna." She continued while crossing her arms.

"Huang Yuna, to be exact, the Descendant of Five Auspicious Beasts."

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly and returned, "It's such a coincidence that our family name and given name started with the same letters."

"Anyway, nice to meet you, Yuna."

"Let's get along well from now on."

"Likewise, Yuhao." Huang Yuna smiled back at him.
