Chapter 82: Chapter 72: You, Hero, Truly Delight Me_2
But before, she was able to fight like this because of the Holy Bone.
With the Holy Bone’s blessing, her fists and kicks were comparable to top-tier equipment, able to make others doubt their own existence.
But now, that was clearly not going to work.
She needed to find another path.
To continue her extraordinary journey, she was willing to abandon everything she had mastered before and pick up weapons she had hardly studied.
She had seen Fratiss’s sword dance.
It would be difficult to expect her not to have seen it when being in the same association.
Such an amazing sword dance must be the result of effort, guidance, and talent combined.
Thinking that geniuses don’t need guidance is purely the notion of someone who hasn’t been to the top universities.
In places like the Ethereal Emblem, being a genius is just the threshold to enter.
Mentors there are those who have fought their way out among geniuses.
Who hasn’t cut down a few prodigies?
Thinking of this, she became excited.
"Then I’ll choose her. Senior, thank you, I will work hard."
"Don’t rush to thank me yet."
Chloe contemplated for a moment and said in a low voice:
"Extend your hand."
"Oh."
She obediently extended her hand.
Chloe brought his two fingers together and placed them on her pulse.
The hot fingertips made Rephya a little uneasy.
But in the next second, a gentle force enveloped her body like waves.
Rephya looked at Chloe, who was bathed in a Recovery glow, and her gaze began to blur.
Oh no.
She was having visions.
She remembered the scene where Senior Chloe treated her in simulations.
She carefully suppressed this emotion, not daring to move.
A moment later.
Chloe opened his eyes.
The data of the oath object was refreshed.
...
Name: Rephya

One-Slash Shura (SSR): Can only be used once a day, concentrating all her powers into one minute, forcing all magic power to enhance physical abilities dozens of times, delivering a fatal blow.

...
He withdrew his hand from Rephya’s pulse, calmly saying:
"I have two suggestions for you. One can significantly enhance your strength in the short term, and the other might cause you suffering continuously."
Rephya tilted her head and said:
"Which does Senior hope I choose?"
"I would like you to choose the latter."
"Then I’ll choose the latter."
"Didn’t I just teach you something, and you forgot it right away?"
Rephya stubbornly replied:
"But I, I also said, I don’t want to doubt my friends."
"Except for me, be more cautious of others."
Chloe sighed.
Oh, foolish Heroic Maiden.
As my human-shaped portable acceleration plugin, our interests align, and they are hard to shake.
I certainly don’t want to hurt you.
But others are a different story.
Yet he still laid out the two choices in detail.
"The first option, I can negotiate with Master Heisha, and you can receive her short-term guidance."
This would require Chloe to pay some price.
Master Heisha had a bit of a craving for his body.
To be precise, she was craving that physique as powerful as a young Titan Race member.
He didn’t mind letting her research it.
After all, it could further develop his own talent to its limit.
"The second option, I can help you talk to Master Heisha, and you can personally ask her to be your second mentor."
He explained to Rephya the differences between the two.
The former is just temporarily enjoying some guidance.
In fact, students can spend points to ask mentors to cross-categorically teach them.
But considering Xiaolu’s points, he assumed they might not be enough for her own resource exchange, so he chose to help cover her costs.
After all, he was going to be studied by Heisha anyway.
As for the latter, it didn’t have much to do with Chloe.
He was just responsible for delivering the message.
A freshman is different from him.
He had already proven his abilities in freshman year, so he earned the opportunity to find a second mentor in sophomore.
If Rephya wanted this opportunity in freshman year, with her current abilities, she would suffer a lot.
"Have you decided? If you choose the second option, you will need to pass the mentor’s test.
Master Heisha’s test is hard within hard, most likely, you will gain nothing from it."
"If effort equaled corresponding rewards, everyone just needed to work hard," Rephya said calmly, "But I have no backing, so the only thing I can change is through effort."
Her incredible determination had no audience.
But here, she wouldn’t stop.
Become stronger!
Become stronger!
Become stronger!
Every cell in her body was telling her this.
"Alright, then I’ll talk to the mentor for you. Go see her today."
This was the Rephya he knew.
She would regret but never repent.
She would strive but not force.
She could yield but had bottom lines.
She would compromise but held principles.
This was a true hero.
But Rephya did not know she was always under someone’s observation.
The 0 times usage of One-Slash Shura and Great Humiliation, what did they signify?
