Reincarnated as a step-dad in a fantasy world

Chapter 64 : Finally

"You needed to change your fighting style two times ?" Asked Ava incredulous.

"Yes, I don't know if he does it consciously or not, but after several sparring sessions, he became accustomed to my fighting style. I had to change it up, but after several more spars, his body adapted to my new style as well, so I had to adjust once again."

Lilia took a deep breath and then continued:

"In addition to all the things I've mentioned, there's also his mana manipulation. With each spar we had, his manipulation skills improved greatly. Seeing this, I decided to stop any theoretical training to purely focusing on practical training, as it appears that his skills in manipulation and technique grow the more he fights."

Hearing this Ava fell silent for a moment before asking "do you think he could win the competition in a few days if he were to get to level 4 as he said he would"

"You didn't notice ? He is already at Level 4"

"Huh ?" 

It wasn't until now that lilia said it that Ava used her sense to probe Alex level, as she did so a gasp of surprise escaped her mouth before she muttered to herself "becoming a level 4 in two days, that's way too fast"

Lilia next to her chuckled as she said "forget about two days, he went from level 1 to level 4 in just 4 hours"

"..."

Hearing Lilia's remark, Ava didn't even know how to respond. Seeing Ava like this, Lilia chuckled once again, knowing that no sane person would believe something so unbelievable. If the process hadn't occurred right before her eyes, it was doubtful that even she would believe it.

"That's truly incredible," Ava said when she finally got over her surprise. Then, she asked with a thoughtful expression, "But will that be enough for him to win the competition?"

At Ava question lilia got silent before replying with serious tone:

"if the fights were just a hand-to-hand fights I can confidently say that one week is more than enough, however the other participants will use their abilities which might make it impossible for Alex to win, it's true that with enough training one can beat those with abilities even without possessing one, but Alex isn't at that level of mastery yet, if he was given a few years or months even, I'm sure that he will be able to beat even those who possess high level abilities while only using his body strength, but we clearly don't have that much time, so, he will have to get another ability beside his {soul linkage} if he wants to have a chance at winning the competition"

"I see" replied Ava still with a thoughtful expression.

As they observed, Alex finally got up and chatted with the girls as they made their way towards them.

Seeing them approach, Lilia got up from her chair and walked over to meet them.

When she was close to them, she gazed at Alex and asked with a mischievous tone, "Should we continue the training?"

Hearing her Alex shivered from fright and looked at the girls like to ask them to save him from this demoniac woman.

Fortunately for him, contrary to the time with Scarlett, Viviane and Amelia came to his help.

"I think that's enough for today mom" said Viviane.

"Yeah, she is right, his body is strained, he need to rest, beside that, he have some internals wound that I need to heal" supported Amelia.

"Yeah, yeah, what they just said" said Alex while frantically shaking his head up and down.

"Is that so ? How long will it take for you to heal him ?" Asked Lilia while looking at Amelia.

"At least two days" said Amelia with straight face.

'Look at this lying vixen' thought Lilia after she heard what Amelia said, she had been extremely careful to not hurt him internally so she knew that there was no way that he was that hurt.

However she didn't call out Amelia on her lie, instead she smiled and spoke while looking at Alex:

"I guess that's a shame, but we apparently need to postpone our training by two days"

Unaware of what was happening Alex juste nodded with his head with a relieved expression.

'Don't look so relieved, I doubt that you will rest for the next two days, but I guess that's a good thing, he actually need to have another ability' thought Lilia inwardly as she looked at Alex relieved face.

"Girls, how about we leave your aunt to take "care" of your father while you tell me what you did the last two days" said Lilia looking at her daughters.

"Ohh, you won't believe what we saw in the..."

Just like that the girls had forgotten about Alex and went to with Lilia, they reunited with Ava and prepared to leave, however just as they were going to left the training ground, Lilia looked toward Alex and winked at Alex.

'Why is she winking to me ?' Wondered Alex as he was being led by Amelia toward her room to be "healed".

On the way, the two didn't chat much. Alex was busy inspecting his body to see if there were any serious wounds that needed immediate attention.

However, he stopped doing so the moment the door closed behind him as Amelia jumped on him and kissed him with such passion that he was pinned to the door.

'Ah, I finally understand'.
