Chapter 12 Upgrade Skill
Seeing the dazzling array of crystal cores, Blux's appetite was piqued, and it immediately began eating with gusto.
For each crystal core it consumed, Ethen Cole had Blux drink a small cup of the matching potion to counteract the blood energy contained within the core.
Crunch, crunch.
Blux had excellent teeth and could finish a crystal core in just a minute.
The rich energy within the crystal cores immediately entered Blux's body.
Blux's strength rapidly increased, nourished by the energy of these crystal cores.
That night, Blux was very content.
The delightful surprises on its taste buds left it intoxicated.
It experienced an unprecedented gourmet feast.
...
Starlight Street is a bustling district on the northern outskirts of the base.
At night, Starlight Street was teeming with people, bustling and lively, incomparable to the desolation and decay of the slum areas.
At No. 6 Starlight Street, in the "Romano Classic Restaurant," a girl in a snow white dress is happily having dinner with a ponytailed girl.
The girl in the snow white dress is Aina Saffa, while the one with the ponytail, focused on her food, is Diana Nor.
Aina Saffa and Diana Nor grew up in the same military compound, as their grandfathers were comrades in arms.
Aina Saffa is 20 years old, two years older than Diana Nor.
Since childhood, they have referred to each other as sisters and have maintained a very close relationship.
Today is the monthly dinner date for Aina Saffa and Diana Nor.
This simple restaurant is one they have frequented since they were in elementary school.
The food here is simple and delicious, leaving them with endless fond memories.
This time, they arranged to meet here again.
The two girls chatted happily while enjoying their meal.
"What? What?"
Suddenly, Aina Saffa's exclamation echoed throughout the entire restaurant.
Other diners turned their heads, puzzled as to why this beautiful young lady in a white dress was so flustered.
"Aina Saffa, what's wrong with you?"
Diana Nor put down her knife and fork, looking at Aina Saffa with some confusion.
In her impression, Aina Saffa had always been well mannered and composed. What happened today that made her lose her composure like this?
"Who did you just say saved you today?"
Aina Saffa, however, didn't care about the attention from others.
Her focus was entirely drawn to the name mentioned in Diana Nor's words.
"Ethen Cole, from our same grade. Aina Saffa, you wouldn't believe how amazing this Ethen Cole is..."
Immediately, Diana Nor continued to recount her thrilling encounter of the day.
"So, it really is Ethen Cole!"
At this moment, Aina Saffa finally confirmed that the savior Diana Nor was talking about was indeed Ethen Cole, the one who was expelled, whom she had seen that morning.
"It seems I underestimated his Emerald eye Riolux!"
"The day after tomorrow is the college entrance exam. No, I must go to find Third Uncle immediately. Such a good student must not be deprived of the chance to take the exams!"
Aina Saffa became restless, hastily ate a few more bites, paid the bill, and left in a hurry.
She left Diana Nor alone, bewildered at the dining table.
Aina Saffa hailed a cab and headed to the residence of her Third Uncle, Alan Saffa, in Merak Garden.
She vowed to convince her Third Uncle tonight to reinstate Ethen Cole's student status so he could participate in the upcoming college entrance exams!
...
Ethen Cole, unaware, had no idea that Aina Saffa, whom he had only met once, was rushing around to ensure his eligibility for the exams.
In the dim light of his home in the shanty town, Ethen Cole was looking joyfully at the Blux dozing off in the white light.
Just moments ago, the Emerald eyed Riolux had consumed all 42 magic beast crystals obtained today, gaining immense energy.
After ingesting these crystals, the Emerald eyed Riolux felt drowsy and fell into a deep sleep.
Ring ring ring.
The alarm clock on the table rang; it was already 1 a.m.
This clock was the one that Uncle Yazali had given to Ethen Cole the previous day.
At this moment, it emitted a crisp ring, accompanied by soothing music similar to that of a melodica.
The ringing of the alarm signified that the Emerald eyed Riolux had been asleep for a full three hours.
However, it showed no signs of awakening.
Just as Ethen Cole frowned, growing increasingly concerned about the Emerald eyed Riolux's safety.
"Rio..."
A loud Emerald eyed Riolux's Rio echoed.
The white light dissipated, and the Emerald eyed Riolux awakened.
At this moment, the Emerald eyed Riolux's size hadn't changed much, but its fur had a faint golden sheen, appearing majestic and extraordinary.
"Blux!"
Connected by heart, Ethen Cole immediately sensed the Blux's joyful emotions.
He quickly scooped the Blux into his arms, petting it while checking the Blux's attribute panel.
