Chapter 71: Mid-Term First Semester's Holiday
After the Mid-Term Exams, Donovan then begins to train again before he goes with his father that promised to take him on in his Raid.
" I must train more!!! " Donovan says as he gets another Status Point after finishing another Training Quest.

" Hmm... I feel a lot different now. " Donovan says as he looks at his almost ripped body despite being a teenager.
" My muscles grew sufficiently during my training and not just that... " Donovan says as he performs a normal punch into the training bunker's wall he makes a crack upon it after he hit it, which is crazy and impossible since the Training Bunker's Wall is made from Dracanium, one of the Strongest Ores mined from the Dragon fossils found from the Dragon Mountains that contains the Grave of the Dragons.
The ore is known for being the most enduring ores that mankind had mined, it is told that men had to try many methods and magics in order to successfully mine the very portion of the ore from the mountains.
Even now, not many know how to properly mine Dracanium from the Dragon Fossils, even the Royals themselves. But, after some time, after the Ragnarok, one of the Royal House found a way to mine Dracanium without using much effort, and that Royal Family that managed to find the way is the Richter House as the House are known to have mastered the magic and the strength of the Dragons by mastering the use of the Dragon Curse, turning it into their weapon and magic that we know them as the Dragon Slayer Magic, thus it enables them to break the Dracanium Ore with their own mere hands at that time.
With that, the Richter House began to monopolize the mining of Dracanium, the thing that become the source of the Richter House's Power over Westeria (the West Part of the Earth) and also became the very thing that make the House of Richter so impenetrable since the Richter's metal equipment are mostly made from Pure Mined Dracanium Ores.
But, despite the Dracanium's only weakness of the Dragon Slayer Magic. There are some ways that some people from the commoner society are able to Mine it illegally without the Richter House knowing it and that is by using Powerful Physical Equipment that they must've brought from the Nerotropolis, the Country of Science, the Country of those that use the way of science and abandoned the use magic thus making their technology more progressed, as their technology now were shown in the news to be able on mining the Dracanium Ore without even having to Imbue it with Dragon Slayer Magic.
...
As Donovan thinks about the recent events regarding the Dracanium Ore Wall he destroyed using his Bare Hands, he then sees his hands for he then decides to imbue them more with the Aether.
"( With my physical strength alone, I am able to make a quite big crack upon this impenetrable wall... )"
"( And if I increased it with the Aether. )" Donovan says as he imbued his hand with the Aether and performs the <Aether Punch>.
< Skill: [Aether Punch] (Active) -- LVL.2 >
< This skill requires 500 AP and had 2.000 DMG*45% CRIT DMG. >
With the punch, Donovan made another punch that cracks the Dracanium Wall even more that also creating an earthquake that rumbles the whole place which made everyone on the upper floor of the Richter-Grimshaw Family House begin to feel that powerful rumble that made them had to run inside the Underground Training Bunker.
" Donovan!!! " Duncan shouts as he comes inside the very place which made him shocked as he also sees the crack on the wall.
" Was that you!!!? " Duncan was so angry, so angry even that he doesn't have time to react that Donovan actually almost destroyed the wall made from the most powerful ore that every man had ever known.
Because of that, Duncan rushes towards him and pins him down for he was angry that Donovan disturb his sleep with Irina and Adria who were already being discharged from the hospital as they are also now awakened after the rumbling they felt.
" Hahahaha... I'm sorry dad, I didn't mean to...- "
" Didn't mean to? really now? even if you really didn't mean it, you should've tried at least to hold back your crazy strength once in a while!!! " Duncan says while pinning Donovan down Donovan laughs as the pin felt like tickles.
" AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! "
" It tickles you know dad... " Donovan says.
"( Grhhh, this kid is growing too much that now my physical strength and pressure is now easily ignorable by him. )" Duncan says after now realizing that Donovan's physical strength is now above him which it made him feel down as he is currently at his busiest state over his life after his daughter was born.
Not only because of his daughter, the problem with that person of the Nyx Nocterra family had not been over yet since he still wants to take time to formulate the plan with Hector, and also he is being stressed over the many reports regarding Donovan's crazy display of strength over the people he met as he heard many times Donovan defeat many people that even made them (the people he defeated) had to go to the Hospital which he had to pay for all of it.
Because of that, After seeing Donovan's behavior, including with the other problems he had, he is having doubts about bringing Donovan into one of his Raids for he fears Donovan will make another problem after another which is a very bad situation to even create with.
During his doubts, Duncan releases his pin over Donovan as he then tells Donovan to stop training for now and told him to do more Spell Learning to increase his knowledge over Magic Spells despite Donovan's protest regarding that but Duncan immediately said the very word that makes Donovan finally submit by telling him that he also needs to train his brain in order to be stronger than before, not just muscles alone.
" Krrk...., I understand father. " Donovan was shocked to hear his statement since it was true, Donovan's semester report had also stated that Donovan needs to learn Magical Theories more before continuing his Physical and Magic Practices.
As Donovan quickly understand his father's words, Duncan then told Donovan to clean the Bunker before coming upwards, Duncan told Donovan to go into his room and forbids him to train in the Bunker before he increases his knowledge of his muscles.
" Okay, father... " Donovan goes into his room while Duncan goes into his room as he met with Irina who finally manages to make baby Adria sleep again.
" So, what happened? " Irina asks Duncan and he explains that he will ban Donovan from using the Training Bunker for now and will focus on teaching him the Magic Knowledge.
" I see, fufufufu, it seems our Donny really likes to do things with his strength alone, huh? "
" I know right? that's why I told him many times recently to go study in order for him to control his urge for a battle which I often found to be unnecessary for a kid like him to have. " Duncan says to Irina as he sits on the bed.
" And now, I also have to increase my work time... "
" Hope I can still manage to do those things while raising the kids. " Duncan says as he then immediately sleeps during this holiday in order to energize himself for his work next week.
As he was asleep, Irina chuckles as she also sees baby Adria who snores with the same pattern as her father.
