Chapter 298  Returning to Home... Part-4.

The lowermost floor of the spaceship is made up of mana-enchanted glass; it won't break easily, so it's safe to stand here and enjoy the scenery.

'This kind of makes me think of the time when I visited that massive museum during a trip…'

Just when Rio was busy contemplating his past life, Jin suddenly appeared beside him.

"Yo! What's up?"

When Rio heard Jin's words, he simply shook his head and said,

"Me? Nothing... just hanging around… What about you?"

Jin also nodded his head in response.

"Yeah, same… I was also just wandering around… This spaceship is quite slow; I could simply open a portal and teleport directly to the capital... This thing wastes a lot of time…"

Rio tilted his head in confusion and inquired.

"But I heard that this spaceship can also teleport by opening a portal… Why are we not doing that, though?"

Hearing Rio's question, Jin shook his head and said,

"Nope, they are planning some welcome party or something like that for you guys; also, you guys won the championship for the nation, and the media will not let it rest until they take some close-up photos of you guys…"

"So, we will land the spaceship, and you guys will get to walk on the red carpet, and the reporters will get to click photos. Also, Raji will likely be there to welcome you guys…"

Hearing that explanation, Rio nodded his head.

"I see, at least we don't have to give those lengthy interviews or something like that."

Before Rio could finish his words, Jin said,

"Actually… the others don't have to give an interview, but as the champion of the tournament, you will have to give an interview… Many news companies are offering a lot of money to get you on the screen…"

Rio simply waved his hand,

"Forget it; the academy gives me enough money every month as a scholarship, and conquering the dungeon of Maya has also given me a lot of money; I am not interested in it-"

Just then Jin brought out two golden colored vouchers from his space ring and said in a sad tone,

"Sigh, what a shame… I was thinking of giving you these two vouchers that can give you a free trip to the famous café. I thought maybe you could use this to go on a date with Lia or something."

"ah~ what a shame~ truly a shame~"

Black lines appeared all over Rio's face after hearing Jin's cheesy tone. He used his amazing speed to snatch those vouchers forcefully, but Jin was too fast, and Rio missed the chance to snatch them.

"Tch! What did they offer you for convincing me to go to the interview?"

Seeing that Rio had admitted defeat, Jin smirked a bit and said,

"Well, it's the same as you, of course! I have two vouchers for myself and Anna, and there are two for you too… So, what do you say?"

Seeing that Jin was so persistent, Rio nodded his head.

"Count me in… but I have a condition…"

Jin tilted his head in confusion at Rio's words,

"Condition?"

Rio looked into Jin's eyes and said, in his usual emotionless tone,

"You two should go to that café on a different day than me and Lia… I don't want disturbances to hang around..."

Jin smiled at those words and nodded his head.

"Of course! That goes without saying! I will message you when I and Anna will go, so you can just go after that!... also, it's kind of rude to say 'disturbance' to your mentor, you know…"

Rio just rolled his eyes and said, in a meaningful tone,

"You have put a space-time barrier in the room; obviously, you are causing disturbances in the air…"

Jin's eyes widened in surprise at those words.

"Whoa! You were able to sense that I had placed a barrier in the room!? Awesome! You have become strong, Rio!"

At Jin's words, Rio replied without changing his expression,

"So, why did you place the barrier?"

Hearing the question, Jin scratched the back of his neck in embarrassment and said,

"Well, I didn't want Mr. Ashtel to sense that I was bribing you… He would definitely break my legs if he found out that I was bribing the students…"

Rio nodded his head at those words,

"Yeah, I can certainly imagine you getting beaten blue and black by him…"

Rio's words made Jin frown a bit, as he felt that Rio was making fun of him on purpose, but he didn't care about it that much.

He stretched out his hand and handed over the vouchers to Rio without hesitation.

"Well, that matter aside, I have another thing to talk about with you…"

Rio stuffed the vouchers in his space ring hurriedly for fear that Jin might regret his decision to hand them out and asked in his usual emotionless tone,

"What is it? I am not attending any other functions or interviews; one is enough-"

Jin waved his hand and said,

"No, no, not that. I want to ask if you would like to do a training session with me?"

"I will get to see sword intent up close, and you will get to see an SS-ranker's abilities; it's a win-win situation, so what do you say?"

Hearing that offer, Rio contemplated for a moment and then agreed.

"I am free anyway; we can train all day long..."

As Rio is a battle junkie, getting to train with an SS ranker is a golden opportunity for him; he can use moves without holding back, and he can also figure out the effects of the 'Imperfect Sword Heart' more precisely.

"But why do you want to learn sword intent, though… Don't get offended, but I don't think it's possible for you to learn it…"

Hearing Rio's words, Jin frowned a bit and asked,

"Even an SS-ranker will find it difficult to learn sword intent?"

Rio nodded his head without hesitation,

"Yes..."

Although Rio's words sounded rude, he was telling the truth.

To awaken sword intent, the first and foremost requirement is to have 'sword aptitude' of rank SS or higher.

But Jin only has the sword aptitude of rank S; the only reason he became an SS ranker was because he got 'Enlightenment' by pure chance.

At most, he can learn an 'imperfect' version of Sword Intent, and even that will take decades of hard work.

It would be more beneficial if he trained his 'World Authority' more instead of wasting time on something that's clearly not suitable for him.

Until now, Rio has only seen one person with enough talent to awaken 'Sword Intent', and that was Qi Meng, the one who was born with the talent to be a 'Sword King'.

When he says, 'You can't learn it', he isn't being rude to Jin; he's just telling the truth.

Also, he knows the criteria is rank SS-level sword aptitude, but he didn't say it outright on Jin's face and only said that you can't learn it so that it doesn't hurt Jin's feelings.

Rio himself might be emotionless, but he still knows how to take other people's emotions into consideration.

But even after Rio's warning, Jin didn't agree; he shook his head and said,

"You see, I have become an SS ranker, and now I have to guard the territory. I have already given my resignation letter to Raji, and I am retiring from my life as a teacher at the academy…" n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

"So, I will likely not see you again for quite a few months or maybe even years… I want to make full use of this time. I will teach you my sword skills while also trying to improve mine…"

"Once this training session is over, I will leave… Next time we meet, it will likely be at my and Anna's wedding ceremony…"

Hearing Jin's words, Rio nodded his head.

'Sigh~ Anna was expelled, and now Jin is leaving the academy too. So many things have changed since the day I first came to this world… Time really flies by so fast…'

"Well, okay, then, let's try our best then…"

Rio shook hands with Jin to finalize the agreement.

Jin also nodded his head and smiled,

"Good, you are my seventh disciple from now on! Even if you surpass me one day, I will still care for you as a mentor…"

Jin patted Rio's shoulder and left with a beaming smile on his face.

Every swordsman in the world dreams of learning 'Sword Intent'; getting to experience that legendary skill from so close was a golden opportunity.

Jin is a swordsman too, after all; he wants to achieve this legendary power too, and wasting time for now is not his way of doing things.

Right now he is idle, so he might as well train and try to learn something new, even if it is next to impossible.

Jin has already gotten the ability to influence a 'law' of the world using his 'world authority', and 'Sword Intent' belongs to a different 'law' of the world, so it's going to be a very difficult thing for him to learn 'Sword Intent'.

But Jin has set his mind on it, so Rio didn't disagree at all, and if he really learned 'Sword Intent' then Rio will be happy for him.

With the sword heart, Rio's sword intent will always be superior to others; it's impossible to achieve his level of mastery over it unless the other party also has a sword heart.

And awakening 'Divinity' is not a child's play at all; even Rio was barely able to get its 'imperfect' version.
