=========================================
"Mellie Ambrosius, huh."
Pondering the silver-haired girl's name, Airmid led her through a dense forest and soon arrived at the place where Mika and Yahweh were training.
At that moment, in a clearing within the forest, Yahweh and Mika were continuously clashing swords.
After a month of training, Mika had made rapid progress in both swordsmanship and breathing techniques.
From being unable to block a single move initially, Mika could now hold his own against Yahweh for a short period.
After all, there were only so many variations in the Water Breathing sword technique.
After a month of continuous sparring, Mika had become intimately familiar with Yahweh's swordsmanship.
But even so, any slight flaw in Mika's defense would lead to instant defeat when facing Yahweh's onslaught.
"Clang!"
"There's an opening!"
Yahweh's eyes brightened as she noticed a flaw in Mika's stance, immediately swinging her sword to break his guard.
Then, with a swift turn, she kicked Mika down.
"Damn it, let's go again!"
Without any hesitation, Mika quickly stood up, ready to face the challenge once more.
He was continuously defeated, only to rise again and continue fighting.
Standing at the edge of the clearing, Mellie quietly watched the battle unfold. Airmid, in the meantime, was practicing Water Breathing techniques with her sword on the other side.
After bringing Mellie here and instructing her to wait, Airmid began her own training.
Left standing there, Mellie could only silently observe Yahweh and Mika's battle.
Watching Mika's relentless perseverance, her eyes gradually widened.
It was as if there was a sparkle in her eyes.
"I've found it!"
"What have you found?"
Having finished her sword practice, Airmid walked over to Mellie to greet her, puzzled by her exclamation.
By this time, an entire afternoon had passed since Airmid had brought Mellie here.
Throughout the afternoon, Airmid, who usually focused intently on her sword practice, kept glancing at Mellie.
After all, she was the one who brought Mellie here, so if anything happened, it would be her responsibility.
However, Mellie remained completely silent, simply standing there and watching Mika and Yahweh's fight.
She hadn't moved at all the entire afternoon.
So, when sword practice ended, Airmid quickly approached her to see what was going on.
But just as she reached Mellie's side, she heard her exclamation.
"Of course, it's a hero!"
Turning around, Mellie excitedly grabbed Airmid's hands and urgently said, "Airmid, can you introduce me? I want to join your Familia!"
Hearing Mellie's excited words, Airmid couldn't help but frown.
Although she hoped to see Yahweh's Familia grow, she instinctively felt a bit of resistance towards Mellie joining.
However, her kind nature prevented her from delving into that feeling, and she nodded slightly, saying, "If you wish, I can certainly help you."
"Thank you, Airmid!"
Mellie said gratefully.
...
"So, in your eyes, Mellie, Mika also has the qualities of a hero?"
After hearing Airmid's explanation, Yahweh had a look of realization.
Initially, Yahweh wasn't very interested in Mellie.
After all, she was very busy and had no extra time to train another novice.
She had already decided that she wouldn't accept any new members into her Familia until Mika and Airmid were fully trained.
But just as she was about to refuse, she noticed Mellie secretly watching Mika, who was resting on the other side.
As a God who enjoyed fun, Yahweh's instincts told her there was more to this story.
So she asked Mellie for more details.
She then learned why Mellie wanted to join Yahweh's Familia.
"That's right!"
Without any hesitation, Mellie honestly revealed her intentions.
"I see."
Understanding the reason, Yahweh admitted that she had developed some interest in Mellie.
After all, Mellie had immediately recognized Mika's potential, whereas Yahweh had initially overlooked him and even hesitated to let him join her Familia.
This showed that Mellie had a better eye for talent.
Although this was partly because Yahweh hadn't used her Sacred powers, Mellie's talent was undeniable.
Thinking about it, the reluctance in Yahweh's heart began to dissipate.
"Alright, I guess I'll just have to work a bit harder!"
Having made up her mind, Yahweh smiled at the eager Mellie and said, "Fine, since you're so determined, I'll make an exception and let you join my Familia!"
"Thank you, Lady Goddess!"
Mellie responded excitedly.
...
Hearing the excited voices from afar, Mika silently opened his eyes and looked at the three.
He had noticed Mellie's presence during his training.
However, he had been so focused on Yahweh's training that he hadn't paid much attention to anything else, merely acknowledging her presence.
But now, seeing her interact with Airmid and Yahweh, Mika couldn't help but become curious.
"Who is she?"
Straightening his tired body, Mika walked over to the three and asked curiously.
"She's our new member, just accepted."
"A new member?"
Recalling his earlier memories, Mika remembered that Airmid had brought her here.
This made him even more curious about her.
Seeing this, Mellie took the initiative to introduce herself to Mika, "My name is Mellie Ambrosius. Please take care of me, Captain!"
"Ah, sure, sure!"
Apart from Airmid, Mellie was the first unfamiliar member Mika had interacted with, making him a bit uneasy.
But there was something familiar about Mellie's name that Mika couldn't quite place.
"Is it just my imagination?"
Looking at Mellie's smiling face, Mika pondered.
...

==========
"Did I just hit the jackpot?"
Looking at the sacred text before her, Yahweh had an incredulous expression.
Although she had sensed Mellie's potential and made an exception to accept her into the Familia, she hadn't expected her to possess such powerful magic.
Recalling Mellie's dreams, Yahweh suddenly felt that this magic embodied her aspirations and true nature.
"This girl is truly a sage!"
Yahweh marveled.
After translating Mellie's abilities and giving them to her, Yahweh excitedly sought out Mika to share the news.
Listening to Yahweh's account, Mika suddenly froze.
He finally realized why Mellie seemed so familiar.
"So, it's you, Merlin!"
--------------------
Merlin Ambrosius.
The sage from the legend of King Arthur, a renowned magician in the world.
Mika's knowledge of him comes from the 'Fate' series, where Merlin is the mentor of the popular character Artoria. Naturally, Mika is familiar with Merlin's name.
However, Mika is more familiar with the name Merlin than Merlin Ambrosius.
If he hadn't come across Merlin's full name while searching for him, Mika probably wouldn't have known his exact surname.
Even if he didn't know Merlin's full name, Mika would still associate Mellie with Merlin.
After all, the magic "Heroic Sculptor" is very reminiscent of Merlin.
"So, does this mean Mellie is the Merlin of this world?"
Though it seemed a bit far-fetched, Mika quickly accepted this idea.
After all, in his previous life, the famous Finn also existed in this world.
As for the gender?
If God can be a woman, why can't Merlin be a woman too?
Accepting that Mellie is Merlin, Mika couldn't help but express his concern to Yahweh: "This is making me feel a bit pressured."
"Huh, why is that?" Yahweh asked, puzzled.
"You see, our Familia may be small, but everyone is incredibly talented. As their leader, if I can't guide them to grow properly, it would be quite shameful."
"That's true," Yahweh agreed, feeling a bit pressured herself.
As the main God, guiding the Familia members' growth was also her responsibility.
With this shared understanding, Mika and Yahweh exchanged a glance and made a decision.
"The training needs to be doubled!"
...
Since Mellie joined Yahweh's Familia, Airmid now had a partner for basic training. The two of them progressed quickly by comparing themselves during training.
During this time, Yahweh, after a brief silence, did something astonishing again.
She upgraded the Water Breathing technique.
After all, Water Breathing was created based on the template of Sun Breathing.
Limited by the creator's abilities, Water Breathing was just decent in Yahweh's eyes.
After grasping the principles of Water Breathing, Yahweh performed a comprehensive upgrade on it.
Although it was still called Water Breathing, its essence had completely changed.
Even the ten forms of Water Breathing were modified and enhanced by Yahweh.
After a brief adaptation period, Mika, Airmid, and Mellie quickly adjusted their breathing rhythms and began using the fully upgraded Water Breathing.
In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.
...
"Clang!"
With the clash of swords, Airmid and Mellie's attacks collided.
Sitting at the edge of the clearing, leaning against a tree trunk, Mika watched Airmid and Mellie sparring and couldn't help but feel nostalgic.
"Time flies! Both the passage of time and Airmid and Mellie's progress are so fast."
"Their skills have already surpassed mine and Tanjiro's past levels."
Mika wasn't surprised by Airmid and Mellie's rapid progress.
After all, their teacher was the goddess Yahweh, whose precise guidance significantly accelerated their swordsmanship improvement.
Moreover, with the Sacred blessing, their physical abilities were also continuously enhanced.
This meant that the foundational training, which took Mika much longer to complete, only took them a short time.
As a result, what took Mika a year and a half to accomplish, Airmid and Mellie completed in just six months, even surpassing it.
"That's true, but their recent progress has started to slow down. Their future improvement won't be as rapid."
"Looks like we need to change our training location."
Exchanging glances with Yahweh, Mika chuckled.
He saw the same thought in Yahweh's eyes.
"Looks like we're on the same page."
"So, it's decided then?"
"Yes, it's decided."
Looking up at the white clouds in the sky, Mika stood up and said seriously, "Let's prepare to leave. Our next destination, Orario!"
Hearing Mika's decision, Yahweh chuckled.
She had long yearned for Orario.
...
"Mika, come here!"
"Village Chief!"
After completing their training once again, Mika and his group were passing through the village on their way home when the village chief, who had often taken care of him, called out to Mika.
After informing Yahweh and the others, Mika left the group and approached the village chief.
"Is there something you need, Village Chief?"
"I heard you're going to Orario?"
Two days ago, after deciding to go to Orario, Mika and his group began preparations, so almost everyone in the village knew about it.
"Yes, that's right. You're not planning to stop me, are you?"
Seeing Mika's surprised expression, the village chief waved his hand and said, "Of course not. I'm very confident in your abilities now."
With Mika and the others often going into the forest to hunt large prey and bring it back to the village, everyone in the village acknowledged their strength.
But they also had a common consensus: Mika and his companions were very strong.
Taking out a letter from his pocket, the village chief handed it to Mika and slowly said, "This is a letter your grandfather left for you before he died. He told me to give it to you when you grew up or when you were strong enough."
"Now that you've met a goddess and become a true adventurer, I believe you're ready to receive this letter."
He then patted Mika's shoulder and earnestly advised, "Make sure you're prepared. Orario is not like our village; the competition there is intense. Take good care of yourself!"
With that, he turned and walked away, shaking his head.
After watching the village chief leave, Mika walked home while opening the letter in his hand.
Inside the envelope, besides a piece of paper, there was also half a key.
Opening the letter, Mika saw his grandfather's handwriting. Carefully reading the contents, Mika's face showed a look of realization.
It turned out that Mika's grandfather had left him a special inheritance.
It was the relics of Mika's parents.
According to his grandfather, Mika's parents had died in the dungeon. Shortly after their death, some members of their Familia sent some of their belongings back.
After sorting through them, Mika's grandfather hid some useful items to leave for Mika, while the rest were buried in Mika's parents' memorial.
The key was for the hidden room.
As for why he entrusted the letter to the village chief, it was because he worried that if Mika received too much inheritance at a young age, it might change his character.
Moreover, he was afraid Mika would take these items to Orario and get killed for them.
So, he instructed the village chief to give the letter to Mika only when he was grown up or strong enough to protect the inheritance.
The village chief and Mika's grandfather were lifelong friends, so he trusted him completely.
Reading the letter, Mika's eyes were filled with memories.
Even in his last moments, his grandfather worried about Mika's future.
This deeply moved Mika.
"Don't worry, Grandpa. I will make good use of this inheritance and become a true hero."
Looking at the letter in his hand, Mika made a firm decision.
He would live an extraordinary life.
