Zayn was glad to have survived his encounter with the Master Weaponsmith. He was pretty sure that their personalities didn't match up well, but Zayn would have never expected rlin to be serious when he said that he was lucky to have survived.
It caused shudders to run down his spine, and it took him a few seconds to get back to his senses.
"So what is our plan now?" Zayn asked, hoping that the next few steps of their plan could distract him a bit.
"Our next step is to buy a bunch of things. You're rich, after all!" rlin said, trying to ease Zayn's tension a little.
"More?" Zayn enquired which rlin affird with a short nod.
It was only obvious that they had to buy a few necessities to train but the expression on rlin's face was pretty much self-explanatory. It ant that they had lots of things to buy. And by lots, rlin actually ant a lot. That was what Zayn guessed with a dry smile on his face.
'As long as it helps to beco stronger, it's fine. Money can be earned again, and my strength is certainly worth a big investnt!' He reasoned before he recalled sothing related to rlin's mission, and his words.
Apparently, they were in a hurry, but how pressed on ti were they actually?
"By the way, do you have so sort of ti limit to finish your Mission? It would be pretty bad if I don't know about the ti limit while you're struggling to teach the Double Saber Kalivan technique," Zayn asked, coming up with a good point to take into consideration.
rlin nodded his head once again, "I was given a ti limit the mont I accepted the mission to regrow my arm. The ti limit will be used up in less than a year. However, this ti limit is not what I'm worried about."
Hearing the word 'this ti limit' caused Zayn's ears to perk up. rlin saw this and he tried to force a smile on his lips in response.
"I could kill the Chira on my own but the managent of the Colosseum would never allow to face the Chira according to the agreent they made with the rchant family. That was why I was forced to accept Lara's help and when she chose to assist , a new tir popped up in the System window. The tir denoted the ti I have left to finish my mission with Lara's help.
When she left, the tir of the countdown stopped at six months. It started to countdown again after I accepted your help," rlin revealed, giving Zayn a rough idea of where he was standing.
"That basically ans we have half a year left," Zayn mumbled, which rlin reaffird, "Yes, that's about it."
Six months was plenty of ti for Zayn to train and beco stronger. He was pretty sure that it was more than enough ti to beco strong enough to defeat so crippled Chira. However, rlin didn't seem to think that way.
In his opinion, six months was way too short. Not only was it 'only' six months before the mission's tir would run out, but the Colosseum's Challenges wouldn't be available all the ti. It was highly likely that Zayn would have to spend more than two weeks as one of the Colosseum's Challengers, fighting three to four other monsters in total before the Colosseum's managers would finally make him face the Chira.
At the sa ti, it was quite obvious that rlin would have to complete his part of the mission as well. He had to take revenge on the rchant family for taking away his right arm. Not only had they crippled him physically, but rlin had received great psychological damage from losing his right arm, his progress was slowed down infinitely and he lost more than half of his actual combat prowess.
The prodigy, who would have beco a powerhouse in the near future had been crippled, humiliated, and discarded as a nobody after he lost his powers. For Zayn, it was only obvious that rlin wanted to eradicate the entire rchant family as revenge, but that was easier said than done.
Searching for the mbers of the rchant family and killing them one after another, while they were protected by a batch of guards was certainly not easy. It would take quite a while and careful planning.
"How long do you think you'll need to take revenge?" Zayn asked, trying to make sure that his guess was correct.
"If everything goes as per the plan, it will take a few weeks, if I have to face so problematic opponents, or the City Lord stirs trouble for killing the rchant family mber, whether it's inside Zerek or outside, I will probably need two months," rlin explained before he ca to the most important point that Zayn had wanted to know, "That ans I have only four months to instruct you. Four months may not be enough to teach you everything because you need to learn the basics as well, but I need to make sure that you're strong enough to kill the Chira in around four months...that's why we need to buy a LOT more than you may imagine!"
Zayn didn't feel the need to rush his advancent in strength earlier, but he understood that he had to advance to the Peak of the 1st Soulring, while simultaneously training the Double Saber Kalivan technique. If he had already possessed a great foundation for Sabermanship, that wouldn't be too much of a difficulty, but things were not that easy.
He understood that ti was of the essence and that even a B-rank Adventurer with two Soulrings and great talent toward combat would face difficulties training soone in such a short ti. rlin might be the strongest Adventurer in Zerek, but he could not charge into the Colosseum and kill the Chira on his own.
Thus, Zayn could be considered the last ray of hope whether his talent for combat was great or not.
It was quite a ntal challenge to think that one had to rely on a 13-year-old Normie for sothing as important as the mission to grow back his arm, but rlin had no other choice.
"Alright. Let's buy a bunch of things and use up my entire fortune. It's ti to go all in!"
