Junhyuk had learned something from his duel with Gongon, that he was in the right path with his training.

Gongon was learning martial arts from Nudra. Meanwhile, Junhyuk was trying to create his own style. The two were on different roads.

Junhyuk decided to keep training while they still had time. He had two heroes teaching him, and both of them were masters of their own styles.

They taught him in different ways, but he learned from them, and with each pa.s.sing day, he was getting stronger. Not only him, but his entire team was getting stronger.

While sparring with Vera, Sarang’s skills had improved. Elise could now move with ease, and she was improving as well. Her movement was based on casting speed, so it also helped her with her other powers.

Right now, Elise wasn’t running. She was learning magic while meditating.

Thanks to the elf training, Elise’s magic skills had improved. She was growing in a way entirely different form Sarang.

They focused entirely on training for that week. The heroes spent two weeks with them. There were another two before the tournament would start.

Junhyuk wanted to continue training, but Artlan and the others told him that they had to go back, so they held a farewell party.

The heroes were the leaders of their dimension, so Junhyuk prepared some special food for them.

At the same time, he couldn’t continue to train in the facility. Two weeks had already gone by, and Eltor had to be scheming something while he was there.

To prepare for Eltor, he had to spend last time training and more time paying attention to the outside world. Training time was over.

Everyone drank, and Artlan said, “Right. Have you decided on a name for your swordsmanship?”

“No. Not yet.”

Artlan scratched his chin and said, “It depends on how you get the inspiration for it. Give it a good name.”

Halo asked, “How about Junhyuk’s Dual Swordsmanship?”

“What?”

Nudra took a swing and said, “You have combined three distinct styles, so how about Triple Swordsmanship?”

“Triple combination?”

Junhyuk took a moment to think, and Vera laughed at him.

“Worried?”

“I didn’t think I’d have to think about this.”

Vera pushed his head into her bosom and said, “You’ve grown so fast, and now you have to think about what to name your swordsmanship!”

His face turned red, and he said, “I haven’t completed it yet.”

“No. You’ve reached a decent level. How about Vera’s Dual Swordsmanship?”

Artlan frowned.

“Are you joking? He learned from me. Might as well call it Artlan’s.”

Junhyuk laughed and said, “I’ll name it Triple Yin Yang.”

“Triple Yin Yang?” Nudra asked.

“It’s better than a triple combo. I’ve combined all three into one.”

“Triple Yin Yang.” Nudra smiled and patted his shoulder, saying, “It sounds good. Yin Yang means harmony, and your swordsmanship works for both offense and defense.”

“Artlan’s would be better.”

Vera hugged Junhyuk and shouted, “He doesn’t like that!”

Artlan looked at her and asked, “Who gave Vera this drink?”

Sarang smiled awkwardly and answered, “She wanted it, so I gave it to her.”

“She should only be drinking wine. She’s drunk now, so you are responsible for her.”

“Yes.”

Sarang tried to separate Vera from Junhyuk, but she resisted.

“What?! I wanna play with Junhyuk!”

“Play with me.”

“Really?”

Vera hugged Sarang then, and Junhyuk sighed. She was drunk, but she was happy. Diane walked up to him and caressed her b.u.t.t.

“Shall I stay here and play some more?”

Artlan asked, “Would that be OK?”

“s.h.i.t… No, I have to go.”

Diane sighed and took a swig from a bottle, and Artlan scowled.

“Why are you wasting the alcohol?”

Diane smirked and replied, “It’s really good.”

She emptied the whole bottle, visibly drunk, and Junhyuk laughed.

“I didn’t think you could get drunk.”

“It’s only because I’m drinking with people I trust.”

Artlan smiled and added, “She can’t get drunk once she returns, so she does it here.”

Vera was dancing with Sarang, and Diane was caressing his b.u.t.t.

Artlan drank like a whale, and Nudra and Halo did as well. No matter how much they drank, though, none of them got drunk. Junhyuk was relieved to see that.

He had no clue of what could happen if those three got drunk.

It was time to end the party. Artlan, Halo and Nudra were still sober, but Junhyuk had fallen asleep.

Artlan looked at him. He hadn’t slept for two weeks. Artlan and Halo had instructed him, and Artlan wasn’t sure if Triple Yin Yang was a good name for his style, but Junhyuk had managed to combine the three sword styles into one.

Junhyuk had fought in the Dimensional Battlefield and died many times, and that time and experience had made him who he was today.

Artlan finished his bottle and got up.

“Are you staying here?”

“The drinks are all gone, so I should be going.”

The three heroes got up and looked at the two sleeping.

“What about them?”

“They’ll return once they wake up.”

Artlan, Halo and Nudra left the training facility. Vera was sleeping with Sarang in her arms, and when Diane woke up, she gave her a light slap on the cheek.

Vera woke up and looked around. She caressed Sarang’s head and disappeared with Diane.

When Junhyuk got up, he looked around and asked, “Did they all leave?”

Gongon was gone as well. Scanning the room, he saw Layla getting up with messy hair.

“You are still here.”

“I’m still drunk. I’m not as busy as Halo.”

Junhyuk was curious about Layla’s life in her dimension, so he decided to ask her about it, “What are you over there?”

“Me? I can be a day late.” Then, she asked, “How do you cure hangovers here?”

“I’ll bring you some soup. Wait here.”

Junhyuk went out and looked for a soup place. After purchasing some, he got back. The others would be surprised once they woke up to soup.

Layla took a spoonful and frowned, “Is this edible?”

“Eat it. It’ll help you.”

She laughed and finished her bowl. Then, she looked at him and said, “You’ve completed your swordsmanship. Now, you just need to polish it.”

“I know. What about you?”

“I just learned it for fun, but the elfs’ techniques have really helped me. I should be able to reach the next level.”

“The next level? Already?”

Layla hadn’t been a hero for very long, but she laughed at him and said, “How about you?”

“The next level?”

“You don’t know just how much you have improved.”

“Well…”

“When you first became a hero, I could’ve killed you, but now, I can’t. I don’t have the confidence to do it now.”

“But you could have?”

“I spent a long time learning with my katana. I started when I was young. What about you?”

Junhyuk didn’t have an answer for her. He hadn’t been training that long. He had learned mostly from his experiences in the Dimensional Battlefield, but Layla had as well.

“Then, am I a genius?”

Layla laughed and said, “In my world, Artlan and Halo had never taken an interest in a student before. You should feel good.”

Junhyuk was only joking before, so he gave her an awkward smile.

“I have some confidence now.”

They both laughed, and Layla got up.

“Let’s do well in that tournament.”

With that, Layla disappeared. Junhyuk looked at the others. Elise was yawning.

“Meeting with the heroes is always a positive experience.”

Junhyuk was pleased by what Elise had said.

Looking at him, Sarang asked, “Can I keep training here?”

“Sure. I’ll go talk to Eunseo.”

“I can go all out here, right?”

“Of course! The place repairs itself.”

Elise looked at Sarang. Sarang had learned some devastating spells while Elise had learned the elfs’ techniques.

Elise grabbed Junhyuk’s arm and said, “Let’s go together.”
