Crossover Anime: Starting from Jobless Reincarnation

But when she met Roya's serious gaze, Alice could only nod, a slightly awkward expression on her face.

Luo Ya shrugged. The purpose of the reprimand had been achieved; now it was time for a few words of encouragement.

"However, you did very well this time. I was expecting you to get beaten up by Nina, but you ended up teaching her a lesson. Well, don't mention the old sword god's face."

Luo Ya laughed and joked, and the previously heavy atmosphere disappeared, becoming cheerful.

The girl's sadness came quickly and went quickly. She soon smiled and said proudly, "Of course, that guy was too clumsy. He hesitated even when he wanted to fight."

Rudius's lips twitched, but he secretly gave Roya a thumbs up for his teaching methods.

First, give both sides a stern scolding, then gently guide her to understand her mistake. Once Alice realizes her error, she will inevitably feel frustrated and unhappy. At this point, a little encouragement will make Alice happy again.

And the result was exactly as Luo Ya had expected. The girl swept away her previous arrogance and realized where she had gone wrong. Although it was hard to say whether Alice would make the same mistake again, at least the goal was achieved, which was good enough, wasn't it?

With Alice's matter resolved, all that remained was the afternoon's training schedule.

At lunchtime, Alice still looked at Roya with that pitiful expression.

But whenever Roya looked back, the girl would unconsciously look away.

After the meal, Luo Ya became somewhat silent.

"So, Alice, why are you staring at me like that?"

Luo Ya sighed, put down his chopsticks, and looked back.

"Huh?" Alice exclaimed softly, but this time she didn't look away. Instead, she met Roya's gaze openly.

Her fiery red hair cascaded down to her waist, and the girl remained the same. The dust and dirt on her face had long been washed away by Roya's water magic, revealing the girl's exquisite appearance.

Chapter 262 The Techniques of Using Moment

"Brother Roya, I was wondering if it would be possible to stay overnight there?" Alice asked tentatively.

Roya stared at Alice, his expression unchanged, and simply said, "What do you think?"

“I think it’s a good idea,” Alice replied immediately, her eyes lighting up.

Luo Ya was speechless. He often didn't know whether Alice was genuinely straightforward or just pretending.

"No."

The chopsticks made a crisp sound as they were placed on the bowl. In front of the table was a pile of meat made of some unknown material, along with rice.

Compared to the pure white rice of my previous life, the rice in this world looks rather unappetizing.

Yellow rice is not only less appealing in appearance, but it also tastes significantly worse.

The autumn sun is not hot; even at noon, it only feels comfortable and cool.

The climate here is cooler than that of the Kingdom of Asura.

Alice lowered her head, looking dejected.

The girl's cheeks puffed out, as if she were angry.

This was her third time applying, but she was rejected every time.

Roya thought for a moment, but in the end he couldn't bear it, so he tapped Alice on the head and said, "I'll tell you a story once a week."

"really?"

Alice immediately looked up, a joyful smile on her face.

Looking at Alice's bright and radiant smile, Roya really wanted to say: "It's fake."

But fearing that the simple-minded girl might actually believe it, the words stuck in her throat and she couldn't say them.

After dinner, it was time for the usual training.

The afternoon training focused on speed and strength exercises.

There's not much for Roya to train in terms of strength, but as for speed, Roya is starting to think about more ways to develop Setsuna.

Luo Ya's training grounds are different from everyone else's. The boy has his own private courtyard, and in front of the courtyard is his own small dojo. The space is not very spacious, but it is more than enough for one person.

Roya's normal slashing speed is infinitely close to the speed of light, and after breaking the shackles, it can reach the speed of light.

After using the instant, one's speed can increase to twice the normal speed, but whether it can actually reach twice the normal speed is still under discussion.

In a sense, that instant is extremely perverse.

But every ability has its limitations, even a moment is no exception.

In its simplest form, a moment can only affect oneself, and acceleration can only accelerate one's own time flow. In other words, he can use a moment to temporarily increase his speed to twice its normal speed, but at the same time, he will consume more energy than he would normally need.

After all, time affects him, but the time around him remains unchanged.

Under normal circumstances, it's fine, but once the Blade of Light is used, at twice the speed of light, this speed is indeed enough to kill most people in the world. But the problem is that the physical strength consumed by traveling at twice the speed of light and the fatigue that the body needs to withstand are also terrifying.

Even with Roya's physical abilities, he couldn't say for sure how many times he could unleash the Blade of Light.

However, the uses of a moment are naturally not limited to this.

The simplest way is that your usual killing moves will become much stronger. You only need to increase the energy consumption slightly to double the speed. Or, if you want to perform a slash that originally required charging up, you can also greatly shorten the time in this process.

Roya stood in the dojo, his brilliant golden hair hanging down to his waist. The boy's golden eyes lit up, his pale gold pupils radiating dazzling golden light. Roya gripped the wooden sword and began to slash down from top to bottom.

A simple chop.

The speed wasn't particularly fast; its only redeeming quality was its extremely precise and standardized movements.

This is the first chopping motion.

Luo Ya didn't linger; he raised the wooden sword high in his hand again, then suddenly brought it down.

This was achieved by using a little force, which greatly increased the speed, while the movement remained standard. From the perspective of an observer, such a powerful and heavy strike was enough to make the newbies outside applaud.

Roya exhaled slowly, white mist rising, Roya's eyes shining with golden light, the boy lowered his eyes, and then activated the instant.

In an instant, a stage begins.

The flow of time noticeably slows down at this moment; it's a very direct experience. The rolling clouds in the sky, the dancing leaves on the ground, and even the elements themselves seem to slow down.

This only accelerated my own time.

But this feeling is really great.

Instead of immediately brandishing the wooden sword, Roya began to walk slowly.

The dojo wasn't large. Luo Ya walked around it at a normal pace, but if any onlookers saw it, they would definitely feel a little awkward.

Roya's movements were no different from before, but his speed had indeed doubled.

The experience was great, so Luo Ya stopped and looked at the wooden sword in his hand.

After thinking for a moment, the longsword fell quickly, but this time there was noticeable air resistance.

Although there was resistance, it was negligible for Roya.

Roya assumed a fighting stance, holding the wooden sword horizontally at his waist. His gaze fell upon a wooden puppet in front of him. The puppet was a training tool, and such things were plentiful in the Holy Land of Swords. Even if it was broken, it could be repaired and reused. Roya didn't need to feel too much psychological burden.

Luo Ya inhaled and exhaled, feeling the surging power filling his limbs.

Luo Ya drew his sword, stepped forward with his right foot, and swung it forcefully with his right arm.

"Sword Drawing Style - Thunder".

This was a move he hadn't used in a while. A swift slash was unleashed, magic power unconsciously flowing into it. With Roya's will, the wooden sword seemed to be wrapped in lightning, and in the blink of an eye, it suddenly cleaved the wooden figure in two.

Luo Ya sheathed his sword and made a mental assessment.

Its power has almost doubled.

Consumption did not increase by much.

This was undoubtedly a good thing for Roya. Just as Roya was pondering whether to unleash the Blade of Light, such a voice came to his mind.

"Master, may I come out?"

That's Esther's voice.

Upon hearing Esther's voice, Roya was momentarily stunned.

Then, Roya asked with some curiosity, "Estelle, have you been watching the whole time?"

Esther didn't answer immediately, remaining silent for a long while before saying somewhat guiltily, "No."

Luo Ya asked suspiciously, "Really not?"

Esther changed the subject, not wanting to dwell on it any longer.

"Master, I feel like you're acting really strange."

“Well, yes, I felt something was off about you from the beginning. Did you somehow control the rules of time?” Restia tried to join the chat.

Luo Ya looked around and sensed that no one was paying attention to them.

Roya sighed and simply released Esther and Restia.

When the two came out, they looked at each other and both saw surprise in each other's eyes.

Luo Ya paid no attention to the two people's surprise, but instead looked at the two beautiful girls in front of him.

Esther's attire hadn't changed much; her small body was clad in a pristine white dress that barely reached her ankles. Despite her petite stature, Esther possessed delicate features, with her azure eyes and moon-like long hair making her appear exceptionally adorable.
