I won't tell you now.
Chinji: Why?
Sato: When you activate your Riza and learn your first technique, I'll tell you my special ability.
Enrio, preparing his body for combat with full enthusiasm, said: I don't care! Let's fight!
Sato revealed his special Riza, which was orange! He raised his hands lightly to mid-body on both sides, right and left.
He said: Attack!
Enrio, with caution visible on his face:
Chinji, let's show all our strength—we won't hold back.
Enrio took a wide combat stance, knees slightly bent, eyes fully focused on Sato.
Chinji mirrored Enrio's stance but stood behind him.
Their positions were synchronized.
Sato directed a single Riza thread. They dodged it but separated and tried to return to their synchronized stance.
Then Sato sent a second thread while standing still, controlling the threads only.
Each thread chased one of the two, forcing them to scatter.
They tried to regroup, but Sato sent thread after thread.
Strangely, everyone remained calm.
Sato: Why are you so calm in such a dangerous situation?
Enrio: Because we won't lose.
Sato: Alright, I'll start moving—get ready!
Sato walked slowly toward Enrio, calmly, deliberately trying to unsettle him.
Meanwhile, he pushed Chinji away from Enrio with Riza threads.
Chinji tried to return to stand with Enrio to help,
but Sato just gestured lightly with his hand and sent a large number of orange Riza threads at Chinji to push him away.
Chinji dodged the threads with fast movements between the randomly directed threads,
but one Riza thread caught him by both legs and knocked him down.
Sato: This is where I end it.
He sent many Riza threads around Enrio,
this time sharp like lightning but in a dark orange color, not glowing.
Enrio, using his intelligence, anticipated Sato's move,
prepared to run backward and jump to the right,
then run toward Sato to survive the attack.
He executed his plan and survived, but Sato had prepared a surprise!
Riza threads emerged from under the ground to attack him,
trapping him just like he did to Chinji.
Enrio: How did you anticipate all this power when we were caught?
Sato, with a mocking glance:
I did this to Chinji so he wouldn't rise again, and I thought to judge fairness between you.
Chinji: Okay, can you please explain more about Riza?
Sato: Alright. Riza exists in all beings of this dimension, but few humans possess it.
Riza also has many techniques, like the one I just used, called Lightning End.
…and many other techniques.
It also has a special ability when performing a transformation called Z-Transformation.
This transformation can be done by powerful people.
Once you do it, you can use your power at any time.
For now, don't focus on Z-Transformation—just focus on mastering Riza first.
Enrio, with sad eyes: Night is coming… shall we continue training?
Sato, with serious eyes: Enrio, don't be sad like that.
You two are strong and have great potential to become legendary fighters.
The most important thing is not talent—it's perseverance.
Enrio, looking down in respect at Sato:
I'm sorry, teacher. I'll try harder. Thank you.
Sato: Regarding what you will do now:
You will go to the seed seller to get corn and wheat seeds,
because the harvest season is approaching, and that's when all seeds will be sold.
Chinji: Understood. Let's go, Enrio. But teacher, where is this seller?
Sato: Go to the southern gate of the farm, then to the third street, turn right.
They went to the seller.
At the beginning of the road:
Chinji: Why were you frustrated, Enrio?
Enrio, with a light smile: I just wanted to show Sato my strength, but I was weak.
Chinji: Are you stupid, Enrio?
Sato is a former leader and the son of a current one, and we were able to hold our ground for a long time… true, he was lenient, but it's an achievement that we stood strong for a long time.
Enrio: True.
He rubbed his head with a smile on his lips: I was negative… I'll try to be more optimistic.
Chinji: We are approaching the store… the road passed quickly.
They entered quietly into a store that looked luxurious.
Seller: Welcome. What do you want?
Chinji: Sato sent us to buy seeds and told us to tell you it's his usual request.
Seller, with a wide smile: Are you the ones who caught Sato's attention?
Enrio, confused: What do you mean?
Seller, chuckling lightly: After his son became our leader, Sato was looking for a student or a group of students to train. Anyone who failed working with him was dismissed, which didn't matter because his Riza compensates for it, allowing them to work alone without struggle.
He told me: if I send you students to get my usual request, I know they are my students.
Chinji: Thank you.
Seller: I'll prepare his usual request. Wait here.
Enrio and Chinji waited, smiles never leaving their faces when they realized their efforts had paid off.
Seller: Here are the seeds!
Chinji: Thank you. That's a lot; the farm must be big. Here's the money.
They left the store happily.
For Enrio, it was the first time he felt his own value.
On the way back, Sato was in his private hut and called the orphanage chief.
Sato: Hello. There's an important matter I want to discuss.
Orphanage Chief: What is it?
Sato: When Enrio was going to your orphanage,
after being kicked out of his house, his Riza Eye technique was active.
A person appeared behind him, said "The Chosen One," repeated it in fear, then ran away.
Orphanage Chief: That's serious. What will you do?
Sato: Sorry, the harvest season is coming, and I'm busy. Take care of this matter; it's difficult but very dangerous.
Enrio doesn't know this person's details, which makes things harder.
Orphanage Chief, laughing: Don't worry, Sato. Don't worry. I'll handle it.
Sato: Okay, thank you.
After ending the call, the Lord called.
Sato: What do you want, my Lord?
Lord: There's a slightly dangerous mission. The commanders are busy; I want you to take it alone.
Sato: I have found my students; I won't be alone.
Lord: Okay, I trust you. I'm busy, goodbye.
Sato: Alright, goodbye.
Someone knocked on the hut door.
Sato: You both look tired from carrying all the seeds. You went and slept. Tomorrow, you will join me on a mission.
Enrio, yawning: Okay, let's go, Chinji.
They went to sleep, not knowing what awaited them tomorrow!
