Battle Harem of the Heavenly Sword
Chapter 243 The Mettle Required Of An Empress 7Jei's theory has two concepts. One is to empty the bowl and the other is to compress it. If the person's body is the bowl then emptying it first seems like the logical conclusion.
Once empty new calibers would flow; the race to fill the body begins. The next theory is to compress the caliber in the body. To compress is to pack more stuff in a limited space. The best example would be clothes in a suite case.
You could fold stuff better, put the clothes in each other or use a vacuum and suck the air out. The number of clothes that would fit would increase or decrease depending on how methodical someone was. While the concept is easy to understand how would that translate to calibers?
The room was silent, a known elephant in the Mitsurugi household was the past of the three wives. They knew Hiro saw glimpses of it. Their hardship, their origin, aside from that one time when they asked he never brought it up again.
However, they never forgot the one thing Hiro promised when he did bring it up.
(I did, and I will come for them soon. All of them.)
As he never asked they skirted around the issue. They haven't even told each other their histories. Initially, they wondered if Hiro would press them for answers. Yet the man never said anything, he gave them peace as they spent their honeymoon. Even now that pieces of their past started to manifest one by one Hiro trusted them.
And the guilt started to eat them up. This man must have wanted to know, he should have felt all sorts of demands and emotions yet out of his boundless love for them he stayed silent.
Raylene inwardly vowed to share her past in the future, but not today. For now, the only focus is getting stronger. "The Bravery Combat Doctrine is devoted only to one rule. Aura efficiency."
Jade and Vanessa as Valorians knew that sharing the secret caliber combat doctrine of the Valorian royalty is a huge deal. It implied the trust Raylene had for them, as well as her desire to strengthen them as much as possible.
Like a class of good students, Hiro, Jei, and Nessa listened attentively. Seeing their response Lene continued. "To illustrate it better let me show you. Darling, please give me something hard that its okay to break."
Hiro pulled out a Steelape skull from his inventory and gave it to Lene. Before she could begin however Jade stopped her. "Lene, if you use your aura will you not awaken?" The blue-haired empress shook her head and answered. "I will be drawing Aura from the air, as I won't be using my body's Aura I should be fine."
Lene then manifested Aura on her forearm the one holding the ape skull. "Okay, say for example my forearm can accommodate 100 AP at level 1, normally this would elevate my arm's STR from 10 to 25. This blunt use is how most people infuse Calibers into their bodies. As a passive Stat bonus, armor, or enhancement. See how I barely can do anything to the skull?"
The woman squeezed with all her might, the muscles on her arm contracted to show the force she exerted. But the force could be considered pitifully weak thus nothing happened. "Now you noticed how my arm looked like on fire due to Aura undulations? This is considered wasteful. Here is what it looks like when I pack the Aura into my tissue instead of my forearm."
A mini vacuum appeared around them that greedily sucked in light particles to Raylene's limb. After a while, her hand all to her elbow exhibited an orange glow. "This is the 1st level of the bravery doctrine. organ assimilation, by doing this I now packed 500 AP into my arm. I forced the Aura to my skin, muscles, ligaments, and bones."
Raylene again squeezed the steel-apes skull and broke it into pieces. "At 500 AP I passively increased my STR from 10 to 1200 for my forearm. Now here it is when I apply the final level of the doctrine. Cell assimilation." The same vacuum again manifested but this time it made loud sounds similar to a hurricane.
After about 20 minutes Raylene's forearm had a crimson outline that shone like a furnace, Hiro approached his wife ready to heal her, in contrast, Jei and Vanessa moved away due to the immense heat. Sweat started to fall from Raylene's exquisite face as she took the broken pieces of the steel ape's skull and closed her fist.
While a simple motion, the supposed to be strong monster material behaved like soft rock and crumbled from the woman's soft hands. "I now packed around 5000 AP in my forearm. Which I think would be around 4000 to 4500 STR. If the goal is to take in as many calibers as we can, this would be the way."
Hiro quickly held Raylene's burning arm and healed it. The heat energy transferred from Lene to her husband allowing her arm to rapidly cool. Meanwhile, large blotches of 3rd-degree burns appeared and disappeared on the butcher's entire body.
After the healing was completed, Lene had a loving smile as she thanked her man. Yet he remained silent and went back to his seat. Jei and Nessa wrapped their arms around their sister as they expressed their gratitude.
Caliber Combat Doctrines were priceless in Valorious for her to share the most coveted one, they could do nothing but feel grateful. Hiro remained by their side as the three empresses practiced the Bravery Combat Doctrine to compress their calibers.
The dangers of such an approach were already evident, within minutes of using it Raylene's skin started to melt. The man wanted to object but he tried to be supportive and remained silent.
Once they got the basics of it they went downstairs. This process would be extremely painful, the short sessions proved that yet the women still choose this path as it would allow them to chase after their husband.
Returning back to the face-off with the dragon. Hiro monitored each wife with maximum focus. He dedicated a brain to each of them, ensuring he could respond at a moment's notice.
Three women summoned calibers into their bodies for the first time since their rebirth. Like they planned each executed a big move to drain their tanks and fall into caliber diseases. They then fought with minimal calibers while waiting to fill up.
Raylene turned aggressive, Vanessa apathetic, and Jade sadistic.
Now, as calibers awoke into their bodies they did not release the energy but simply packed their cells to the brim. The glowing hair and airs were proof that they were pushing their bodies to the limit.
Raylene and her armor started to glow from heat, yet she fought. Vanessa and her armor started to turn transparent yet she danced with her swords. Jade's skin started to freeze and her lips turned blue yet she continued chanting none stop.
Lars and the others who noticed the abnormalities panicked and told Hiro all about the situation. The building around the three empresses started to manifest the calibers around them. Rock, stone, and concrete melted as Raylene danced. Buildings disintegrated everywhere Vanessa moved. Frost and ice invaded both objects and people as Jade attacked civilians.
Tsugumi who evaded the ice bus quickly grabbed Geo and healed him using [Integrity of the Faithful]. She sent caliber Jians to block and protect the civilians who were being attacked by Jei.
"JADE-NEE-SAMA! PLEASE STOP THIS! WHY ARE YOU ATTACKING INNOCENT PEOPLE!"
