Chapter 331 Claudia, The New Tool
With steady hands, he picked up the fire wood putting it back in its place.
On the other side, Ralph engaged with a big yellow core mountain bear.
He was an aura cultivator in the middle stone rank.
This beast was big and fierce, but with his cultivation level, it was nothing for him.
Unlike spiritual energy, the power level of an individual was not shown in the color of his power that oozed out of his body.
Instead, it was felt with the kind of energy pressure the individual could produce.
Ralph gave the creature a fierce kick to the face that surprisingly sent it flying a distance.
As he did, some other teenagers by the side clapped and hailed his feat.
Ralph was the strongest of the lot, and his battle style was one of brute force.
He used his yellow aura to strengthen the aggressiveness of his attacks.
As a yellow aura user, his speciality like all the others was fear.
However, Ralph used his in a different manner.
His yellow energy was focused around his big body, especially his fist and legs.
Every attack he landed on the beast attacked the beast psychologically.
The more attacks he managed to land, the more afraid the creature became.
His fear energy also acted as a toxin that weakened the parts of the body he managed to hit.
At first it seemed like nothing, but a continuous pounding effect on the beast\'s body soon made the beast\'s movements to slow down to a crawl.
And before anyone knew it, the bear that was a tard bit bigger than Ralph fell helplessly to the ground.
The other teenagers, about six of them came praising Ralph for his exploits.
All of them, except for one.
Her name was Claudia. She was tall and slim, possessed fine lean muscles as it\'s common with most Highland women.
Her black hair was long, and with her oval face, that had no blemish regardless of the weather or situation, she was a fine beauty.
She was beauty so fine she would have easily been sort after by even nobles in the Vandorain kingdom.
However, here, she was just a village girl.
She was around eighteen years old and was one of the oldest of the bunch of teenagers.
While the others were praising Ralph, she walked up to Chiron to help him pack up his firewood.
Chiron gave her a bright smile, "Thank you Claudia. I\'m sorry for getting in the way again."
She chuckled a little, "Don\'t worry, it\'s no problem. I know you need the best firewood for old Magu, and it\'s only in these parts where we hunt."
Chiron nodded, "You are so kind Claudia. The man that marries you would be very lucky."
She giggled lightly at this.
This was giggle that Ralph\'s ears, amidst the praises managed to grab, and his eyes immediately turned in that direction.
The moment that he saw her with Chiron, the smile from his victory against the core beast instantly disappeared, replaced with a frown that made him want to teach Chiron a lesson.
The teenagers praising him all noticed his sudden anger, and immediately shut their mouths.
They all knew why he was angry.
It was because Claudia was smiling with Chiron
Ralph walked up to the two of them, and then kicked the pile of wood they had assembled to the ground.
"Oops, my bad! I didn\'t see your pile of broom sticks. Hmmm! Were you gathering them to go sweep the bush of your harlot mother\'s hole?"
Immediately, the teenagers burst into laughter.
"Ralph!" Claudia stood to her feet, "I told you before to stop picking on him."
Ralph suddenly frowned as he suddenly gave her a slap on the face, "And how many times have I told you not to associate with this trash. Just because Old Magu was the midwife at your birth does not mean I permit your association with trash. You are my woman, betrothed to I, Ralph, the son of the chief. It would be wise if you knew your place."
In such a small village, that was akin to the heavens raining down gold.
The person with the strongest fist always had the final say.
And in this case, it was Ralph.
Claudia massaged her cheek as she kneeled on the ground.
This was not the first time that such a scene was happening before Chiron\'s eyes.
Claudia was betrothed to Ralph even though she was his cousin.
From the moment Ralph was born, he was seen to have very good dantain.
His dantain was actually A grade.
In such a small village, that was akin to the heavens raining down gold.
It was practically a miracle.
At the time, Claudia was already two years old, but it was noticed that she would be a beautiful woman and with the added fact that she had B grade dantain, she was the perfect match for him.
Without a moment to waste, she was immediately betrothed to him.
Having the most beautiful woman in the community was a big flex for Ralph.
Also, considering the great possiblity of his growth, he was regarded as heaven\'s chosen son.
With the kind of attention and love he was always shown, it naturally formed an overly cocky personality.
It also made him too protective of the things he considered his property.
Yes, tradition in the Highlands was in this manner.
A man\'s woman unless a unique and rare individual like Barbara was considered the man\'s property.
Even though they were not yet officially married, no one stopped him from \'Disciplining\' his wife as he saw fit.
Besides, Highlanders were a very barbaric bunch.
The person with the strongest fist always had the final say.
And in this case, it was Ralph.
"I don\'t want to see you around the harlot\'s son again do you hear me!?"
Gently she nodded, "Yes!" She replied in a low tone as tears filled her eyes.
"And as for you!" Ralph turned to Chiron grabbing him by his yellow vest...
