Three people were currently sitting at a table.
Arthur was the first one to speak, "Let formally introduce each of you first."
Looking at Adara, he pointed at Zen and introduced him first, "Adara, this is my apprentice. He is an otherworlder who goes by the na of Deadman."
"Pffft! What a weird na! I wonder what your howorld is like~" Adara giggled as she covered her mouth.
She only stopped when she saw Zen blushing in embarrassnt.
However, Arthur wasn’t finished introducing him when he said, "He’s still at level one. Also, the heart of the Lord of Evil and the piece of the Fire God’s divinity is in him."
At this mont, Adara’s face froze.
It took her a few seconds before she exclaid, "What the hell!?"
Her reaction made Zen smile smugly, ’Heh, that’s what you get for mocking my na!’
Of course, he didn’t dare say it out loud.
"You ntioned earlier that he’s level one- which is very astonishing- But this is on another level! What do you an that the heart of the Lord of Evil and the piece of the Fire God’s divinity is inside him!?"
Adara beca hysterical as the shock she was feeling was extrely overwhelming.
Arthur only smiled calmly, "That’s why I told you earlier that I couldn’t possibly describe his talent."
"Hehe..." Zen couldn’t help but giggle.
"Are you sure about this?" Adara still had a serious expression on her face.
Arthur only shook his head, "It’s not like we can do anything about it. I’ll just raise him properly so he can control the two divine artifacts."
"Moving on."
Arthur looked at Zen as he pointed at Adara, "This woman right here is Adara."
"Hey, why do you have to be so an to !? Please introduce properly!"
Paying no attention to her please, Arthur kept speaking, "She holds the position of Saintess in the Temple of Fire. Her skills are unique so make sure to learn from her."
"Ehhh? You’re aware of how hard it is to learn skills without skill books, yet you still want your apprentice to learn my skill?"
Adara had an amused expression on her face as she added, "I didn’t know if you’ve gone senil– Ow!"
"He can do it. We can even have a bet regarding it if you want." Arthur said after he flicked her forehead.
"You’re on!" Adara said as she rubbed the bumps on her head.
Arthur then lightly slapped the table with both his hands and said, "Now that we know who each other is, let’s plan."
Seeing the seriousness on his face, Zen and Adara also beca serious.
Arthur nodded in satisfaction and looked at Zen, "First of all, Zen."
"Yes, Teacher?"
"Your training is coming to an end. After a week, I won’t have anything to teach you. I doubt that it will take you long to learn Adara’s skill. After you go back to your howorld, make sure to at least prepare and be here for one week straight for your final training."
Hearing his words, Zen could not help but feel a mix of excitent and sadness.
He was extrely excited at the idea of adventuring the outside world and levelling up as he killed monsters.
But he could not help but feel a little sad.
After all, he had already beco attached to the dilapidated building and saw it as his second ho.
Nevertheless, he nodded and said, "Understood, Teacher."
"Wait a minute." Adara interjected from the side, "How can you be so sure that one week will be enough?"
Despite her seemingly unserious personality, Adara was quite arrogant at heart.
Therefore, she could not bear to hear the man she respected to just blindly believe in that apprentice of his.
’It’s not that I doubt him, but I must see it for myself. I want to know how worthy he is.’
She had already seen first hand that Zen was a monster, but being worthy of carrying the Temple of Fire’s na was not based on talent alone.
However, Arthur seed to know fully well what she was about to say and said, "You will see when you’re the one training him."
Adara only remained silent in response.
"Zen, the day’s already over so you can go back to your howorld now. Just do your best to free up so ti for your final training, okay?"
Zen nodded, "I understand, Teacher. I’ll take my leave now."
He also looked at Adara and nodded.
Although they were already quite close, Zen could clearly feel that there’s sothing about her.
Upon seeing him turn into particles of light and disappearing, Adara looked seriously at Arthur.
"Pope, I-"
"Don’t worry. I’m confident in my decision."
Just as Adara was about to retort, she felt pressure bore upon her.
’This...’
She could clearly feel that Arthur had gotten way stronger.
And what’s more, his innate tyranny and arrogance did not fade away along with the ti that had passed.
Gritting her teeth, she nodded, "I understand, Pope. What orders do you have for ?"
"Oh, do you want to go sowhere? You can’t really disguise yourself so I’m thinking of you just staying here with for a whi-"
"Kyahhhh—" Adara imdiately leapt up for a hug before being slapped away by Arthur.
"I know you couldn’t resist ~"
She grinned as she held his clothes, showing a shy expression.
However, at this mont, particles of light manifested again as Zen’s figure appeared in the room.
He scratched his head, saying, "Teacher, I forgot about sothi-"
Seeing the weird scene where Adara was on the ground while clutching the hem of his teacher’s clothes, he fell silent.
Thud—
Kicking Adara away nonchalantly, Arthur looked at him and asked, "What is it? Do you need sothing?"
"Umm..." Zen sheepishly nodded.
Arthur raised his brow in interest, it was the first ti that he saw his student specifically asking for sothing.
"Tell ."
"I was wondering if you could lend a map of the Free World?"
A scroll appeared on Arthur’s hand.
He then tossed it to Zen and said, "This is a complete map of the Free World I made about three years ago. It’s a complete map that indicates even the territories of the other species so use it wisely. I don’t know how much has changed since I made that, but it should still be sowhat accurate."
"Thank you, Teacher!" Zen bowed in gratitude.
Although he often joked with Arthur, there were still tis wherein he was serious.
Arthur smiled, "Go on. Don’t worry about your rewards, I’ll prepare them and give them to you after you co back."
"Hehe, you know so well."
Zen giggled before bidding farewell to his teacher and Adara who was still on the ground.
