Chapter 226 Redemption of a depressed prince... Part-1
????A few hours ago, Royal Palace, guest room.
"A lot of the older SS-rankers have now been replaced in the past ten years, so the representatives that will arrive will likely be new faces…" (Ryul)
"Replaced?" (Ashtel)
Hearing Ryul's solemn tone, Ashtel squinted his eyes.
"Yeah, many of the previous representatives have retired voluntarily, and now a younger generation has taken over their roles…" (Ryul)
"Although it doesn't change anything for us, it certainly is going to be a lot livelier in the eting tomorrow…" (Ryul)
At Ryul's words, Ashtel nodded his head in agreent.
"Well, we also have a new SS-ranker now… but we technically can't count him as a part of the younger generation…" (Ashtel)
While saying that Ashtel gave a strange glance to Jin.
Jin once used to fight in the Fifty Years Orc War, during the sa ti as Ashtel.
But Jin was not talented enough and never reached the realm of demigods during the war, unlike Ashtel, Neo, and Nicolas.
It took him a long ti to ascend to SS rank and now he is over ninety years old, so he can't be considered a part of the new generation anymore.
(Indeed! Ashtel, Neo, Jin, and Anna all were born near the starting years of the Orc war, now they all are actually around ninety years old…)
Anna is actually a lot older than Raji, but she never reached SS rank and Raji was a lot more talented than her.
These numbers may seem high, but keep in mind that the lifespan of people ranked S or above is very big.
Taking their big lifespan into consideration, they are all relatively young actually.
In Ryul's case, he has already ruled the elf nation for a hundred years and it took him at least a hundred years to reach the rank of 'SS' and beco the king, thus he himself is at least two hundred years old.
"Well, it's not like I really was talented in the first place, It was just a fluke that I was able to ascend to the realm of demi-gods… I don't think I will be able to make any further progress though…" (Jin)
Indeed, Jin was right, although with the help of a sudden 'enlightennt' he was able to ascend one rank further, any more progress than this would be extrely difficult for him.
'Enlightennt' helps individuals break through their limits and reach a higher state, but it doesn't increase 'Talent' or 'Potential'.
This ans, that Jin still just has the S-rank talent, and with the improvent speed of an S-rank talent, progressing further in the realm of demi-god will be like:
'Trying to fly to the heavens with wings that are so small that they can't even lift the user from the ground…'
It might take him decades to make even the slightest bit of progress and in that small ti fra, new SS-rankers will pop up all over the world.
After all, there is no shortage of 'Talented' people in this world.
…
"Forget it, it's not like I haven't dealt with newbies before… I have held this eting nine tis before, now is the tenth ti..." (Ryul)
"I have t many hot-headed guys over the past century…" (Ryul)
While saying the word 'hot-headed' Ryul purposely glared at Ashtel with narrowed eyes.
Ashtel totally ignored that glare and didn't bother arguing with Ryul, he glanced at Syvis sitting right beside Ryul and said in his usual calm tone.
"I have brought a very talented kid along with
this ti, she has the talent to beco a 'Demi-god' level 'healer' in the future… I would like to have her trained under your care in the next few days…" (Ashtel)
Hearing Ashtel's words, Ryul and Syvis's eyes widened in sheer shock.
"W-what!? A kid with the potential to beco an SS-rank healer has appeared!?" (Ryul)
"This is a great news!" (Syvis)
As Riya was not as popular as Link and the others, not many people in the world knew that she had the potential to reach rank SS, so Ashtel asked Syvis to train her on purpose.
Syvis herself is one of the only two SS-rank healers in this world and she would be the best teacher for Riya.
The reason why they both were so surprised was because the appearance of a healer with the potential to reach rank SS is extrely rare.
You can assu their rarity by the fact that there are at least around fifty SS-rankers in the whole world but only two are healers among them, most of them are combat types.
Any healer who has the potential to reach rank SS is a literal world treasure, the whole world would welco them with open arms. (Except for the demon race obviously…)
There exists a Mythic grade healing potion in this world and only an SS rank healer can create it by condensing their own life essence into it.
This potion can heal any wound, curse, or debuff. It can heal a broken soul or a destroyed consciousness, it can heal corruption and even if your head is blasted off, you can still regenerate it with this potion.
The whole world wants to have such a potion in their possession.
That's why, whenever a new SS-rank healer appears, the whole world will try its best to pull them over to their side.
If one day the Elf queen wants to leave the Elven Empire, she can settle down in any corner of the world and live there respectfully, this is the importance of an SS rank healer. (Except for the demon race of course…)
…
Syvis nodded her head and said with a smile on her face.
"Good, I will personally train that girl then, I am quite sure that the whole world will benefit from the appearance of a new SS rank healer…" (Syvis)
"Yes! You can never have enough healers! They must always be protected and raised with great care!" (Ryul)
Ryul imdiately narrowed his eyes and said in a solemn tone:
"If not for the fact that the elf race already has Syvis, even we might be tempted to poach that little girl for ourselves…" (Ryul)
"But other races would not think like us… they will definitely try many ways to get that little girl on their side…" (Ryul)
"I am quite sure that there will be people who will be ready to give enormous resources and treasures to her for free if they knew about her talent…" (Ryul)
"Will she be able to ignore such sweet offers? Aren't you worried that she will leave the human empire?" (Ryul)
Hearing Ryul's words, Ashtel simply smirked.
"Heh, I have taken care of that a long ti ago, you know… she is engaged to my son and they have a fairly good relationship, I don't think she will be able to rid of her affection for my son just for the sake of a few resources…" (Ashtel)
"Moreover, there is no shortage of resources in the human race, we reward the talented kids properly, and if soone tried to use force, then hehehe…" (Ashtel)
Ashtel didn't say anything further, he just clenched his fist a little and the atmosphere in the room beca insanely heavy.
Even Jin and the other two could feel a chill run down their spines at Ashtel's actions.
The space itself seed to collapse in Ashtel's fist, his title as the 'Strongest human' was no joke after all.
Just when the atmosphere in the room was a bit tense, a sudden fluctuation in the mana instantly attracted the attention of all four of them.
All four of them looked directly in a certain direction as they sensed the huge condensation of mana.
"This!? Soone broke through rank S all of a sudden!?" (Jin)
"This aura!? It's AL!? He broke through rank S so suddenly!?" (Ryul)
All four of them were surprised by the sudden mana fluctuations, they all instantly teleported and arrived directly above the massive mana cyclone.
Ryul waved his hand and placed a barrier to protect the common people from harm and isolated the mana cyclone inside.
(All four of them arrived a few seconds late as they were shocked by the suddenness of the situation, these few seconds were enough for a certain soone to wear his 'shadow robe' and flee from the place unnoticed…)
With a solemn look hanging over his face, Ryul stared below with worry in his heart.
"Such a sudden breakthrough… if he failed… he will suffer a lot of damage…" (Ryul)
A Ryul's worried tone, Syvis tried to calm him a bit.
"No need to worry, I will heal him if sothing goes wrong…" (Syvis)
Although it was true that Syvis could heal him from even a near-death state, still as a mother, she was worried about her child too.
Looking at all this, Ashtel simply shook his head and said:
"You two are worrying too much, I can already sense that he is undergoing a 'perfect' breakthrough… it's not gonna fail…" (Ashtel)
Only after hearing Ashtel did the two of them calm down a bit.
