Chapitre 162: Checkup

"The Hero is that young? Then why is there a tournament to choose his companions already?" Eiro asked confusedly, and Solomon quickly explained, "It is so that the Hero can properly be trained. He was found only recently, in a small island kingdom to the west. It's always been a neutral and quite safe place, so there are not many strong people there, so they asked for help from other countries that can not only train the hero to properly control his own powers, but to accompany the hero during his journey."

"That means if I win the tournament, I'll have to go to that place? It would be too risky to send a child like that to another country without appropriate bodyguards, after all." Eiro pointed out, and Solomon slowly nodded his head.

"Yes, that is indeed the case. But the Hero's training can not begin until he becomes 10 years old, due to multiple circumstances, so it will still take a few years nonetheless."
