Supreme BeastTamer: I Can Copy and Upgrade Skills 10x!-Chapter 534: Power up [2]
The Competition of Kingdoms had followed one strict tradition since its inception many years ago, and that was providing a mansion for the monarchs, ensuring their stay was comfortable.
King Dracos had diligently followed this tradition even though he didn't necessarily get along well with the other monarchs, even going as far as constructing mansions suitable for another dragon race.
One such avenue was the mansion where the Light Monarch and the fighters resided. The mansion was made of concrete and metal, and it covered over 200 square meters, rising three stories high with towering spires and reinforced crystalline windows that glowed faintly at night.
Inside a beautifully adorned chamber, on a queen-size bed with silk sheets, a little girl of about ten years slept with a peaceful expression on her innocent face, her breath rising and falling in a steady rhythm.
Beside the bed, the Light Monarch stood with a solemn expression as he watched his daughter's face.
"She should have won the fight. What really happened inside that dome?" Thomas muttered to himself, a somewhat lost expression on his face. According to his calculations, even if Kawl was powerful with Lumi's hidden skills, he should've suffered defeat.
"That's what should have happened." His eyes narrowed slightly. "He knew he was about to lose and decided to obstruct our view with that dome. He used a skill he didn't want anyone else to see. I knew there was something special about that kid."
Thomas paused in his train of thought and muttered aloud, his tone frustrated, "If only I knew what happened..."
The only person who could give him the answers was fast asleep. Since yesterday, however, he wasn't worried, as Lumi was very much alive and had been attended to by a powerful dragon healer.

Thomas had been standing in this spot for hours now. He didn't even attend the competition today as there was no need. The only people that made the competition exciting were his daughter and Kawl.
Soon, the sunlight streamed through the windows on the south side of the massive room, followed by a faint breeze that carried a sweet lavender scent.
Lumi's nose twitched at that moment as the scent hit her. Her eyes fluttered; it seemed as if she was having some difficulty opening them, but finally, they opened.
The little girl looked around with a confused gleam in her eyes, momentarily disoriented, not recognizing the room. It was only a couple of seconds after seeing the worried man—whose brows were furrowed—standing beside her that she calmed down.
"Father," she said, sniffed, and two thin lines of tears fell from her eyes.
"Hey, heh, don't cry. You're still young. You'll definitely win the competition next time." The Light Monarch said as he hurriedly tried to clean the tears, which seemed unending.
"No, no, that's not what I'm angry about." Lumi tried to sit up on the bed, and her father Thomas helped her.
"Then what is it?" he asked, wiping her chubby cheeks.
"I... I had the amulet, just like you said, but... but..." Lumi tried to speak between breaths. Thomas stroked her back while saying, "Calm down, say one word at a time."
Lumi inhaled and exhaled, sniffed a couple of times before looking at her father with a guilt-ridden gaze.
"Alright, now go ahead. Tell me everything that transpired inside that dome."

Inside the Frostpire Royal Castle, Nox stared at the system screen with a serious expression, his previous excitement reined in.
"Alright, let's go with the Light Construct."
