123 Chapter 123
Theo thought that even though he was recently pretending to be the father of these children because of Little Yui, he felt he should do something more for them…
Looking into his System, Theo searched for cultivation techniques. He thought it would be nice if these young children grew up with a decent technique since it would help them grow much stronger. He researched primarily for techniques that would improve the cultivation\'s foundation.
After a while looking through his System, Theo found what he was looking for… In fact, he considered it to be even better than he initially wanted. The System called it: Cultivation Technique <Elementary Art Foundation>.
The good thing about this technique was that anyone could use it, and regardless of their affinity, it could be cultivated. The Mana that was absorbed by using it was several times better because of that. It did take a little longer to produce Mana than the standard techniques that Yuki and the others used, but even so, it was excellent!
Despite spending 142,000 Points on this technique, Theo didn\'t regret buying it. Soon a thick book with a multicoloured cover appeared!
Theo smiled and said to Nanda, who was next to him, "This is a technique that you can use to cultivate, I believe it will help you to grow a lot!" A smile formed on Theo\'s face when he saw her surprised look. He continued on to say, "And the best part is that anyone can use it, regardless of their affinity. Additionally, the foundation of any who cultivate with this technique will be powerful!"
Nanda\'s hands began to quiver a little as she held the book. And out of nowhere, she thought the book in her hands had gained a few tons. She was full of emotions looking at Theo because she wasn\'t foolish; she could imagine how valuable such a technique of this level would be…
Her lips quivered a little, holding back so she wouldn\'t cry. She took a deep breath and said gratefully, "Thank you!"
Seeing this, Theo nodded and smiled.
The children and the other girls from the Orphanage were also thrilled to receive such a gift from Theo. They went to Theo and hugged him tightly, cherishing this moment they had with Theo.
Although they already had an enormous amount of affection for Theo, for all he had done for them already, they now had even more! Especially the children, since they began to wonder if this warm feeling they felt in their chests was parental love.
Because they would be going back to the Weapon Shop in only 2 hours from then, Nanda told them to sit on the floor so she could start reciting some of the cultivation technique\'s methods to them. She thought it would take at least a few days for them to be able to digest all the information because there was just so much detail in it. It only showed how precise and in-depth the technique was.
Theo, Zaika, Zaira, Shina, Yuki and Little Yui headed out, letting them learn the technique at their own pace because they had their own cultivation techniques, so there was no need to learn a new one.

6 days later…
It had been a week since Theo\'s Weapon Shop had opened. Due to his videos on the Internet, many individuals came to the store intent on finding out if they were really true. If possible, they would want to buy weapons as well.
Also, many who had already made a purchase at the Weapon Shop were from renowned clans. By the time they showed the quality of the store-bought weapons, they soon wanted to buy as much as possible to strengthen their respective clans.
These days, Theo and the girls spent most of their time training and cultivating inside the Workshop. Because it is a level 6 artifact, even if they fought every day inside it, no scratch was left behind. It was really quite strong and sturdy.
* Sigh~
"These girls really like fighting…" Theo muttered on his way to the Weapon Shop.
He had been sparring with them every day, but today he wanted to see how things were going at the Weapon Shop. But it was partly because he wanted to run away from them since they always wanted to fight him…
"Huh?"
A little girl Demi-Human Cat, about 7 to 8 years old, walked toward the Weapon Shop. Theo, who had just arrived, noticed her.
He saw that she seemed malnourished and a bit shabby. Theo frowned and looked at her thoughtfully.
"She\'s not an Orphanage child; where did she come from?" Theo, who looked her up and down, couldn\'t remember seeing her before.
He approached her and asked worriedly, "Young lady, are you all right?"
But right then, he noticed an abnormality in the eyes of this little girl, it was as if she was lifeless, with no light left in her eyes.
Theo was very shocked by this, at the same time, furious! For he noticed that she was in this state because someone with a considerably high level of mental power was controlling her mind.
Theo very quickly put one of his hands on her head and used his mental powers to erase the traces of who was controlling this little girl.
Soon, the little Demi-Human Cat\'s eyes had light in them again. Yet, they still seemed frail, which made Theo even angrier!
Theo took a deep breath and calmed down, then he crouched down to Little Girl\'s height and with a gentle smile, he asked, "Young lady, are you all right? Who is abusing you?"
Hearing and noticing Theo in front of her, the Little Girl, looked at him with her green eyes and regained some more life, but soon her expression became pure fear and said: "I-I… I have a bomb in my body, please run away!"
She said, taking her little hands up to lift her shirt up to her belly button and there Theo could see, many concentrated mana stones that could explode at any moment.
Theo knew that this level of destructive power could at most hurt him a little, but surely there would be nothing left of this little girl…
Time was now short, he must do something soon, before these things trapped in this little girl\'s body detonated.
Thinking quickly, Theo arrived at only one way. He put his hand on the little girl\'s head and said, "Young lady, don\'t worry, I\'ll save you, okay? But unfortunately, you\'ll feel a little pain, all right?" Theo said with a very bitter expression, as his time was limited.
And apparently, these stones in this Demi-Human Cat\'s small body were very firmly attached, so even if he wanted to remove them, he didn\'t know if he could do it in time.
Putting on a large amount of Lightning True Mana to protect her from the explosion, Theo soon after moved very quickly to the Weapon Shop. Just by being there, he would be able to limit the strength of the blast with the help of Formation.
"Bang!"
By the time he got into the Weapon Shop, the stones that were coated in concentrated Mana in the little girl\'s body suddenly exploded!
Luckily, Theo was able to act fast enough, so it didn\'t hurt her too seriously. It only damaged some of her internal organs. Although he was protecting her with his Mana, the time he had was simply too short. He couldn\'t do much, but at least managed to allow her to survive…
But then he noticed that even after suffering these kinds of injuries, she didn\'t scream in pain or cry… "What the fuck did they do to her to get to this state?" Theo is outraged now, wanting to skin the culprits alive!
"Theo?! What happened?" The girls who noticed Theo asked him in concern. Soon after, they saw the little Demi-Human Cat being protected by Theo, but she still had some injuries.
Theo just stared fiercely at them with his Golden Fox Divine eyes. He stated in a cold, emotionless voice, "Take care of her, I\'ll be right back!"
But before he left, Theo didn\'t forget to give them a Perfect Healing Potion for little girl.
