"Hey, kid," Ryan said while looking toward Arthur. "Do you want to become even stronger?"
"Ryan?" Mia frowned. "Why did you ask that?"
"For no particular reason," Ryan replied. "I just want to see the potential of the kid with my own eyes."
"No… I don't like you," Arthur said.
"Well, that is a pity," Ryan shrugged. "I have a spell that grants me the power to create an environment where time passes faster than in reality. One hour of training here is equal to ten hours of training there. The spell can become even more efficient."
"Where did you get a skill like that?" Daniel asked.
"When I defeated Hypnos," Ryan replied.
"I imagined it had been you…" Daniel frowned. "Can you pass the knowledge of that skill as well?"
"Only those who have defeated Hypnos can use it," Ryan replied. "I suppose Hypnos can also pass that power to other people, but I am not sure if he has any reason to do so."
