"Come on sleepyhead! Wakey wakey~ How long are you gonna sleep! It's time for school!" The warm hands of a woman caressed the small forehead of a seven-year-old boy with love and care. The woman patted and messed up the black hairs on the boy's head. As if disturbed in the middle of a sweet dream, the boy lazily opened his eyes and his pitch-black pupils shined like gems. "mm, let me sleep a little bit more~" (Rio, 7 years old.) "No sweetie! You will be late~" "Come down for breakfast after…

The Great Freya Academy, Rio's Dorm Room. Rio sat on the couch with a teacup in his hand. As he watched the TV, he ignored the thundering of the dark clouds outside. Lightning struck several times and deafening thunder sounds came one after another, but Rio paid it no mind. It seems that even stormy weather can't make his expressionless face flinch even a little bit. The News anchor started his reporting, while Rio sat on the couch in a relaxed manner. (Today is a national holiday in the human empire,…

Rooftop, Military infirmary, Near the General's Residence. "Why the long face? Are you sad because you lost to Link?" (Lia) While Rio was still dejected about his sword, Lia appeared on the Rooftop, she walked towards and stood beside him. Her golden hair shined like pure gold under the setting sun. If not for the fact that Rio's face is always expressionless, his jaw would have dropped to the floor just by looking at her once. A smirk appeared on Lia's cute face and she said in a teasing tone:…

In a Vast Unknown place. 'Hmm, what is this place?' (Rio) Rio tried to look around him but the dense fog blocked his view. Beneath his feet was a pure white floor shining brightly. The atmosphere of this place seemed solemn, majestic, and ancient. Rio had a feeling in his heart that this place, perhaps didn't exist in the material world at all. 'Am I inside someone's 'Plane of consciousness, Right now?' (Rio) Rio was sure that this wasn't his plane of consciousness because his plane of…

In just a few seconds the shadow field expanded far and wide. This shadow field can suppress the enemy's senses and detection capabilities but it doesn't affect your allies. This is also the reason why Rio was unable to use detection properly when he got hit by Link earlier, Ellie's shadow field can be expanded and…

Inside the SSA. While everyone was in shock at Meng's insane feat of learning sword intent, the thoughts in Rio's mind were completely different from everyone else. 'Ah, so that's why I felt that this guy seemed familiar to me… now I understand the name 'Qi Meng' sounded so familiar to me earlier…' (Rio) When Rio read that particular novel in his previous life he never really thought too much about sidekicks and side characters and forgot about their existence very fast. Because none of the…

Inside the SSA Time left: While Rio looked at the three in front of him he also glanced at the little guy standing beside him.
