[New Feature Unlocked: Other individuals may now use the Idle Training Room. The Host can grant access to whover he chooses, allowing them to benefit from accelerated training. Costs remain the sa regardless of who uses the facility. Multiple users may train simultaneously in separate sections of the expanded space.]
Noah’s smile widened dramatically as he read that final feature. This changed everything completely—he could now train Lola alongside himself, dramatically increasing their combined combat power in a fraction of the normal ti required. With both of them training at 5x speed for eight hours daily, they could compress months of advancent into weeks.
"Lola," Noah turned to her with genuine excitent lighting up his features. "How would you like to train at five tis normal speed and reach even higher levels of power than you’ve ever imagined possible?"
Lola stared at Noah with a huge grin plastered on her face, her ruby eyes practically glowing with excitent.
"I would love it!" she scread with the unbridled enthusiasm of a little girl being offered her favorite treat, all traces of her earlier sadness vanishing in the face of such an incredible opportunity.
Her wings fluttered slightly, and even her tail swished back and forth with visible excitent.
The prospect of accelerated training that could elevate her already formidable power to new heights had completely captivated her attention.
Noah couldn’t help but smile at her reaction. It was rare to see Lola so openly enthusiastic, and the genuine joy on her face was infectious.
He spent the next several minutes teaching Lola how the Idle Room’s systems worked, walking her through the ntal interface that would appear once she entered training mode.
He explained how she could select specific skills to focus on using the built-in selection system, how the ti dilation would feel from her perspective, and most importantly, the costs associated with different training tiers.
"So if I want to train my fire manipulation at Level 20, it would cost one thousand golden coins per hour of real-world ti?" Lola asked, doing ntal calculations.
"Exactly," Noah confird. "But rember, that hour translates to five hours of actual training experience from your perspective. So you’re essentially buying five hours of peak-efficiency training for the ti of one."
Lola reviewed the cost structure carefully, her expression showing both excitent and careful consideration. "It’s so expensive, but it’s so good!" she exclaid, caught between fiscal responsibility and the incredible value proposition.
In the end, Lola decided to use approximately a day’s worth of her accumulated inco from her share of the shop’s profits to purchase four hours of Idle Room ti. The expenditure would set her back financially but the permanent increase to her capabilities made it worthwhile.
She chose to focus those four hours specifically on her newly awakened dormant skill—the fire wings that had manifested during her desperate battle against the grandmasters. The ability was incredibly powerful but still new and unrefined, requiring practice to reach its full potential.
Noah estimated that by the end of the four-hour training session, which would feel like twenty hours from Lola’s perspective, her overall combat strength might increase by roughly ten percent. That sounded modest nurically, but at her level—peak grandmaster rank enhanced by premium consumables—a ten percent improvent represented a massive difference in actual combat capability.
It had to be known that the idle room had no such thing as bottleneck, your trainning will always count towards your improvent.
Having already reached the highest conventional rank possible in the power system, all that Lola could really do to advance further was improve her existing skills, making them more efficient, more powerful, and more versatile.
She couldn’t gain new ranks through normal cultivation, so skill mastery beca the primary path to continued growth.
As for Noah, he decided to use his remaining four hours of daily Idle Room allocation to strengthen his swordsmanship. The skill provided comprehensive improvents to both his agility and strength when wielded properly, making it synergize beautifully with his other combat abilities. It was his foundation, the cornerstone technique that tied everything else together into a cohesive fighting style.
As the avatars of both Lola and Noah trained in the training room,. Noah and Lola sat down together in the shop’s comfortable seating area to discuss their future plans.
The conversation flowed naturally between them, both speaking honestly about their goals, fears, and the path forward. They talked for over an hour, weighing different approaches and considering various complications they were going to face.
Finally, they ca to a consensus that Noah believed was the best approach given their current circumstances and capabilities.
"We’ll return to Esta," Noah stated, organizing their plan verbally. "But not to imdiately confront Darian. First, we need to build our power base by strengthening our allies."
Lola nodded, following his logic. "The humans at Esta—Kipp, Alissa, Valeria, Princess Elara, and whoever else joins us willingly. We provide them with items, training, and resources to elevate them into genuinely powerful forces."
"Exactly," Noah confird. "Right now, they’re useful but ultimately fragile compared to grandmaster-level threats. If we can bring even a handful of them up to master rank or low grandmaster capabilities, suddenly we have actual military force rather than just the two of us."
He leaned forward, his expression growing more serious. "But after we’ve established that foundation and ensured Esta has defenders who can hold territory, then we move to phase two of our plan."
"The demon kingdom," Lola said softly, her voice carrying complex emotions—longing, anger, determination, and old pain that had never fully healed.
Noah t her eyes directly. "I haven’t forgotten the promise I made to you, Lola. You’re the princess of the Lelin family, rightful heir to power that was stolen through treachery and violence. You deserve to return the throne to your dethroned family by force and take revenge against those who nearly killed you and put you through everything you went through since a young age."
