Chapter 60: Nine Heavens and Ten Earths
In the end, Tyr, Arena, Butterfly of Sunflowers, and the other three ended up staying at the inn. Due to the bustling period, only two rooms could be cleared out. This was only possible because Tyr had the badge of an iron-ranked mercenary, and the innkeeper specially vacated the only two available rooms.
“Ah~ Ah, ended up staying in such shabby rooms,” Wind Slash Ghost shrugged, looking at the somewhat crowded rooms and the bustling streets outside the window, unable to help but sigh with a sense of powerlessness.
“It’s good to have a place to sleep. As warriors, we should be content with the sky as our blanket and the ground as our bed,” the opinion of Shating Iron Sword prompted Tyr to voice his realization. He thought about the time when he also spent some time camping in the Sang Zang Forest, but he had never had such insight.
“Shating Iron Sword’s words are correct. Indeed, a warrior needs to adapt to any environment, let alone a mercenary.”
“Lord Tyr also thinks so,” Wind Slash Ghost said lazily, sitting on the ground with his back against the wall.
“In my personal opinion, it’s letting the environment adapt to me that embodies the mentality of a warrior.”
“Hehe, that’s being willful, not a mentality,” Shating Iron Sword chuckled and shook his head. He had had similar thoughts when he was younger, but now he found them rather ridiculous.
Tyr naturally wouldn’t agree with Wind Slash Ghost’s statement. How big could the environment be? Even if it were a deity, it couldn’t make everything change along with it. Well, maybe the Almighty God that everyone always talked about in their mouths might really have that ability, but apart from that, it was impossible for other creatures. Tyr had a sense of self-awareness. Although he knew that everything Kaming had bestowed upon him could make him rapidly become powerful, it was limited. If he could become a 【Seal Emperor】, he would thank the heavens and the earth. If he harbored some ambitions, he might reach the level of a deity, but as for being a figure like Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, that was out of the question.
The “Nine Heavens” refers to the Nine Heavenly Kings, each of whom has walked their own path. They did not create divine sparks or become deities by igniting the divine fire; instead, they used other methods to surpass the limits of the human body and wield powers that transcend those of deities. It’s almost fair to say that they are the nine strongest individuals in the entire Noah World.
The “Ten Realms” refer to the top ten most powerful deities among the numerous gods in the world of Noah. There are enthusiasts who have released a ranking, collecting strength parameters of powerful deities from various dimensional worlds. Even among the hundreds of thousands of gods, the Ten Realms deities of the Noah world stand out, with the first-ranked god and the third-ranked Heartrain Goddess holding significant positions among the Ten Realms deities!
Tyr shook his head. These were not the issues he could consider now. Finding back his memories remained his top priority, and other matters could be dealt with later.
“You two rest here for a while. I’ll go check on Butterfly of Sunflowers and the others across the hall.”
“Okay.”
As Tyr finished speaking and walked out of the room, Wind Slash Ghost immediately jumped up like a curious baby. He glanced at Tyr’s retreating figure as he entered the room across the hall, then sneakily turned to Shating Iron Sword and said.
“Hey, Shating Iron Sword, do you think the boss will have any dealings with Butterfly of Sunflowers and that elf?”
“…….. Hmm?” Shating Iron Sword gave Wind Slash Ghost a strange look, then said, “You’re into gossip too?”
“Just curious, you know? If we hear any moaning or other sounds coming from over there later on, we’ll be mentally prepared.”
“Lord Tyr is not someone who acts on impulse. He’s more like a gentleman who waits until a relationship is established before making any moves.”
“Hmm.”
“Well, what you said isn’t entirely impossible. After all, constantly delving into swordsmanship techniques often requires releasing stress. Don’t judge me by my appearance. Every now and then, I also engage in some one-night stands.” Shating Iron Sword’s unabashed words impressed Wind Slash Ghost, who looked as if he had seen a ghost, and said.
“Shating Iron Sword, you’re already an uncle, and there are still people willing to have one-night stands with you?”
However, Shating Iron Sword chuckled lightly, poured himself a glass of red wine, and answered slowly.
“It’s precisely because I’m an uncle that I’m popular. You kids wouldn’t understand.”
“Excuse me,” Tyr pushed open the door. Butterfly of Sunflowers and Arena were chatting happily. It seemed that Butterfly of Sunflower’s gentle personality had already rubbed off on Arena, which made Tyr smile involuntarily.
“Lord Tyr!” Butterfly of Sunflowers stood up from her chair upon seeing Tyr enter, bowing respectfully. The wind spirit beside her also mimicked the bow, which made Tyr wave his hand in frustration.
“Butterfly of Sunflowers, there’s no need to be so respectful to me in the future. Just treat me like a companion. Look at Shating Iron Sword and Wind Slash Ghost; they understand that what I need is not flattery. So, their attitude has changed. Although I’m teaching you martial arts, it’s not a means for me to flaunt my prowess in front of you. I also dislike any form of subordination. If you can understand that, I’ll be very happy. Hmm… yes, as a reward, perhaps I can teach you another martial technique.”
“Really! But… ” Butterfly of Sunflowers’s expression immediately became rich, displaying a mix of hesitation and joy. Her demeanor was quite amusing, which only deepened Tyr’s smile.
