No job: Check the cards, Loki, are there any problems with the cards?

In a secluded courtyard somewhere in the Sacred Land of Swords.

It is inhabited by one of the most famous people in the world today, the water goddess Leda.

This is a separate courtyard, with a fireplace, incense... The surrounding furnishings are enough to show how much the sword god Garr values ​​this water god.

"Master!"

"I am back."

"Huh? It's Izuru who's back."

The water goddess Leda was sitting on the veranda, with a pot of steaming tea in front of her. She had none of the majesty one would expect from a powerful water goddess; instead, she was all smiles.

She gives the impression of an old woman you might see anywhere on the street.

Leda, the water goddess!

Although she wasn't ranked among the seven major powers, there's no doubt that she was one of the people with peak combat strength.

Roger didn't know how strong she was, but he could vaguely sense that her strength was unfathomable.

Like Garr, this is someone I'm not entirely confident I can defeat right now.

But it's unclear how this water god compares to the dragon god.

"I... greet the Water God."

Rogge was the first to greet them, and he tried his best to be impeccable in terms of etiquette.

"Okay, you can all sit down."

The water goddess Leda waved her hand.

"Ok!"

"Lord Water God."

Roger sat to the side, began to sit up straight, and listened attentively.

I thought that the water goddess Leda would be like Gar, who would immediately and directly begin to seriously instruct me in swordsmanship without saying a word.

Unexpectedly... after glancing at Izuru, Leda quickly looked at Rogge.

As if chatting about everyday things, the water goddess Reda began to chat: "Your name is Rogge, right? Young man... my disciple Izoruti is very fond of you."

"A special affection?"

"Huh?"

Rogge was taken aback; even he hadn't expected the water goddess Leda to say that.

Izuru, standing nearby, was equally taken aback. She paused briefly before quickly saying, "What? Master, what... what are you saying?"

The water goddess Leda ignored Izuru and continued speaking to Rogue, "You know what? I've never seen Izuru care about anyone so much before..."

“Izalte…”

"My granddaughter has always been different from others. In terms of talent in the Water God School, even I, in my youth, was ashamed to admit that I could not match her..."

"At five, he learned swordsmanship; at seven, he cultivated battle qi; at ten, he mastered advanced swordsmanship; and at twelve, he became a Water Saint."

"If she continues to develop at this pace, it's not impossible for her to become the Water Queen before she turns fifteen..."

"A genius indeed. I must admit that my granddaughter is truly a unique genius of the Water God School."

"But after seeing you, I realized that this world is never short of true geniuses!"

After a pause, the water goddess Leda gave Rogge a complicated look: "At first, Gar described you in glowing terms in his letter, even saying that you had the potential to defeat the dragon god."

"Do you know?"

"What were my feelings at that time?"

"It's doubt, it's disdain... it's both absurd and laughable, after all, anyone in the world who knows the Dragon God knows that guy is a monster."

"Anyway, in my opinion... there is no one in this world who can defeat that Dragon God."

"So, you think I can't defeat the Dragon God?" Rogge finally spoke.

"Um……"

“That’s what I thought before I came here. I’d rather Gal had misjudged me than believe it…”

"But after actually meeting you, I suddenly changed my mind. I believe that if there really is someone in this world who can defeat the Dragon God."

"Then this person...it won't be me, and it certainly won't be Gal, but you."

In short, while Rogge didn't react much, Izoruti, standing to the side, was inwardly in turmoil.

she……

She never expected that her master, the water goddess Leda, would give the other party such a high evaluation.

But on second thought, it seemed to make sense, after all, she had witnessed Rogge's power.

Although I was shocked, it wasn't unacceptable.

She suddenly stole a glance at Roger, then quickly looked away shyly. Someone as capable as him was the one she was truly trying to catch up with.

Someday...

She, Izuru, would stand before this person with dignity; she would never admit defeat, never give up.

The water goddess Leda took in the whole scene, and a look of satisfaction appeared on her lips. This was exactly the situation she wanted to see.

Life is meaningful when one person walks ahead and another chases behind.

Have a safe and smooth journey.

This is actually not a good thing for Izoruti.

Similarly, Rogge seemed to have understood something as well.

Possessing the talent to see through the world...

This allows Roger to easily see the essence of the world, and in addition, he can understand people's emotions, though he is far from being able to read minds.

He can judge a person's emotions by observing subtle changes in their eyes, heartbeat, breathing, and the rhythm and tone of their voice.

Therefore, Rogge also understood the intention of the water goddess Leda.

She probably didn't come here to be a free philanthropist; she was likely here to better hone her disciple, Izoruti.

That's why they traveled all the way from the Kingdom of Asura to the Holy Land of Swords in the northwest corner of the Central Continent.

The water goddess Reda picked up her teacup, took a sip, and glanced casually at Izuru beside her. "Speaking of which, Rogue, Izuru has mentioned you to me quite often before."

"really?"

Rogge was also surprised.

As if to confirm, Roger glanced at Izoruti beside him, whose heartbeat suddenly quickened in Roger's perception.

The girl said nervously, "No... no way."

"I see."

"Rogge did not choose to investigate further."

"Young man..."

"I can teach you the Water God Style swordsmanship, but I hope you can also instruct Izuru in your spare time, what do you say?"

Rogge's lips curled up, and he immediately had an "I knew it" expression on his face.

There is indeed no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

However, Rogge didn't see anything wrong with it. In fact, this exchange of benefits was a huge win for Rogge.

After all, the person before them was the water goddess Leda...

Her guidance is invaluable to any swordsman in the world.

For Rogge, this was an even bigger win.

"Um……"

“No problem, I will also help Izoruti grow,” Roger replied earnestly.

Seeing how sensible Rogge was, the water goddess Leda couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.

"Speaking of which..."

"By the way, I'd like to ask you a question before I begin to teach you."

"You said."

"Young man, what level is your Water God Style technique at now? And how much do you know about it?"

Rogge sat up straight and replied, "My Water God Style is currently at the advanced level. I know most of the basic moves, but I wouldn't say I'm an expert."

"Just a superior..."

Leda was taken aback, her expression clearly showing disappointment.

It wasn't that I was disappointed that Rogge was too weak, but rather that with Rogge's talent, he shouldn't have stopped at the level of the Upper Water God Style.

He should have gone much further.
