-----------------------

Aaron deliberately slowed down the speed at which he condensed Aura Sphere, allowing Julian to clearly see the correct method of forming it.

"Of course, the method suitable for me may not necessarily suit you. Lucario, you demonstrate your Aura Sphere too."

Lucario nodded, raised his hand, condensed an Aura Sphere, and fired it into the sky.

Lucario did not understand human social tact at all. He condensed Aura Sphere as quickly as he possibly could.

It was also fired towards the sky.

Not only was its flight distance inferior to the one Aaron fired, even the range of the exploding firework was less than half.

"You two practise slowly."

Aaron raised his staff, and an extra-large Pidgeot appeared in response to the summons.

Aaron leapt lightly and easily landed on Pidgeot’s back.

Pidgeot flapped its wings and flew towards the west.

"Pidge!"

After Aaron left, Lucario took on the responsibility of teaching his junior.

"Follow me. The royal city isn’t suitable for training."

Julian followed behind Lucario and arrived at a forest outside the city.

"Usually, Sir Aaron and I train here."

The corner of Julian’s mouth twitched.

"We’re both Lucario. There’s no need for you to use telepathy to speak, is there?"

Lucario shook his head.

"Not only me. You also need to learn how to use Aura for telepathy as soon as possible."

"Sir Aaron said that using telepathy helps improve Aura."

Julian nodded.

"All right. Hurry and tell me how to use Aura for telepathy."

Lucario sighed somewhat emotionally.

"When I learned telepathy back then, it took quite a bit of effort. You must not be impatient."

Julian nodded.

"Don’t worry. I won’t rush."

Lucario told Julian the technique Aaron had taught him for using Aura to perform telepathy.

Julian immediately tried it.

The Aura inside his body was a little weak.

But telepathy did not actually have high requirements for the strength of Aura.

It was just that the stronger one’s Aura was, the lower the technical requirement for telepathy became.

"Is... it... like... this?"

Although it came out in stutters, Lucario’s dog eyes widened.

"Your first attempt actually succeeded!"

Julian smiled slightly.

"This... isn’t... anything... difficult."

"With... a little... practice... I should... be able... to master it."

"Let’s practise... Aura Sphere."

Only then did Lucario recover from his shock.

"Right. Practise Aura Sphere. If we want to deal with the two kingdoms’ armies, we must have a greater combat power."

Julian fired an Aura Sphere, which flew far out just above the calm surface of the lake.

The speed at which he condensed Aura Sphere was much slower than Lucario’s.

And after flying less than five metres, Julian’s Aura Sphere exploded.

Compared to Aura Sphere, this body was more familiar with moves like Force Palm, Low Sweep, Quick Attack, Rock Smash, Bone Rush, Vacuum Wave, and Metal Claw.

Lucario fired thirty Aura Spheres, while Julian had only fired ten.

Lucario was still continuing, while Julian’s Aura had basically been exhausted, forcing him to stop and rest.

Julian sat down, closed his eyes, and meditated, controlling his body to practise the move Calm Mind.

The move Calm Mind, which increased Special Attack and Special Defense, could greatly increase Lucario’s combat power in a short period of time.

Thank you to the Duraludon and Urshifu simulations

Lucario’s foundation was decent, and Julian had quite a few Steel-type and Fighting-type moves that he could have Lucario learn.

Looking at the layer of blue light shining across Lucario Julian’s body, Lucario, who had just used Aura Sphere for the thirty-fifth time, stopped and asked curiously:

"What move is that? Why do I feel like after you used it, your Aura became much stronger?"

Julian smiled.

"Want to learn? I’ll teach you."

Lucario nodded.

"I want to learn."

Julian then poured all the training techniques for Calm Mind into Lucario’s ears.

Lucario sat down and began trying. However, Lucario’s training did not go very smoothly.

Seeing his appearance, Julian immediately reacted. He had told Lucario too many things at once.

Lucario’s brain had no way to grasp so many things simultaneously.

"Start by learning the simplest part, mobilising energy to increase both attack and defensive."

Julian explained again how to apply Calm Mind in battle.

Using Calm Mind to increase power was too advanced for Lucario.

They would take it slowly.

Lucario nodded. This time, a layer of blue light quickly formed around Lucario’s body.

"Keep using it. The power of Calm Mind can stack."

Having just mastered Calm Mind, even after using it six times, Lucario’s increased power was still less than double.

Julian likewise stacked six uses of Calm Mind, and his power increased by around two and a half times.

He stood again and condensed Aura Sphere. This time, it directly flew twenty metres and exploded into a large splash on the lake surface.

After using Aura Sphere five more times, Julian was forced to stop.

If he wanted to achieve a hundred percent hit rate with Aura Sphere, he felt he would need at least two or three more years of practice.

Julian then practised each of his other moves twenty times to ensure his body’s proficiency.

Lucario could learn many boosting moves: Swords Dance, Hone Claws, Nasty Plot, Calm Mind, Bulk Up, and Iron Defense.

But Julian chose Calm Mind because Calm Mind could increase the power of Aura Sphere.

After the attempt just now, Julian discovered that Calm Mind helped improve Aura.

At the very least, in daily training, Calm Mind was definitely more effective than Aaron’s cultivation of the heart.

After training ended, his nose twitched.

In this forest, there were some Berries and herbs that could be used to make a post-training meal.

Seeing Julian digging up grass, Lucario walked over as well and picked one up to smell it.

"This grass smells like it would help with training."

Julian dug up another one.

"Since you know it helps, hurry up and help dig."

Lucario nodded.

"Okay."

They dug out all the herbs in this forest and picked every Berry, then bundled them with leaves and brought them back to the room in the castle.

"Lucario, are there any other forests where herbs and Berries grow?"

Lucario nodded.

"Yes. Are we going to keep digging now?"

Julian said directly, "Of course!"

If they did not seize the time to become stronger now, were they supposed to wait until the enemy army arrived?

After running through several places, Julian finally collected enough materials.

Julian discovered that the vitality of this land was basically concentrated around Cameran Palace.

The other areas were all barren. It should be that Queen Ilene’s ancestors had used some method to connect to a portion of the Tree of Beginning’s vitality.

That was what made this area around the lake so abundant.

Looking at the black liquid Julian had made, which also gave off a bitter smell, Lucario’s face twisted into a knot.

"Do we have to drink it?"

Julian did not speak. He picked up his own bowl and drank it in one go.

"Lucario, you don’t want Sir Aaron to fight alone, do you?"

Lucario immediately picked up the bowl and resolutely drank the medicine.

Lucario’s eyes lit up.

"The effect is actually this good!"

Julian stood still and entered Calm Mind, guiding Lucario’s body to absorb the medicine’s effects as efficiently as possible

Lucario was puzzled.

"You understand so much. Why were you chased so badly by three Houndoom?"

Julian sighed.

"Understanding a lot doesn’t mean you can fight. Hurry and train."

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Julian once again fired an Aura Sphere at the lake surface.

It exploded into a splash.

Thank god for the fresh fish.

Aura Sphere could already be used in real combat.

If he encountered Houndoom again, a face-to-face Aura Sphere could finally knock one down.

In the royal city, the travel-worn Aaron tiredly jumped down from Pidgeot’s back.

Lucario immediately went forward to greet him.

"Sir Aaron, you’re back."

Aaron looked at Lucario and suddenly froze.

Compared to three days ago, Lucario’s Aura had increased by a large margin.

He had only gone out for three days, right?

Aaron asked curiously, "Lucario, how did you do it?"
