Chapter 565: Chapter 242: Start Training (Two-in-One Mega Chapter)_2
 

Rein found it amusing as he listened, glancing at the young girl. Judging from her aura, she was merely an ordinary person, how could she know anything about fascial tension…

Therefore, what the receptionist girl was saying was clearly memorized by rote.

It was like reciting ancient poems as a ‘two-year-old child’ in his previous life, the recitation was catchy, but if you asked them, they wouldn’t understand a single word…

“Also, in the advanced rapids room, you have multiple options, such as alternating between hot and cold baths. Cold and cool baths can improve the effects of your training. Of course, the cost would be an additional five Merit Points per hour,”

“Additionally, you can opt to add pyroclastic granules to enhance the effects of the water jets. However, this will incur an extra fee of fifteen Merit Points per hour.”

“Certainly, although the choices mentioned will enhance the effects, they will also significantly increase the stimulation on the body from the rapids, so I suggest you do this according to your capacity,”

...

Alternating hot and cold?

Adding pyroclastic granules?

Why does it sound like a high-intensity version of a SPA?

Rein showed a contemplative expression.

In addition, the regular rapids room focuses on improving precision and stability in Extraordinary Battle Techniques, which did not align with his current purpose.

However, he could still give it a try later, practicing the Rocken axe and shield Combat Skill to see its effects.

For now, following Instructor Kurman’s advice, he naturally decided to first experience the advanced rapids room.

Thus, Rein turned and asked, “Hmm, excuse me, are there any rooms available in the advanced rapids room right now?”

“Sir, you are in luck. The regular rapids rooms are all full, but there happens to be one advanced rapids room still available. Would you like to use it now?”

“Yes, right now.”

“If you please, could you show your badge at the reception desk?” The receptionist girl led Rein to the service counter.

“Also, help me choose the alternating hot and cold option, and add those… pyroclastic granules,” Rein thought for a moment, then said.

“Sir, are you… sure you can handle it?”

“No no, sir, what I mean is, you could progress gradually….” The receptionist girl, covering her mouth with her hand, blinked her large eyes apologetically at Rein.

Clearly, she misspoke and was afraid Rein would take issue with it.

Rein waved his hand and said, “It’s fine, add them both.”

“As for the time…”

“Regarding the time, I suggest, sir, that you don’t set it in advance. Whenever you feel anything is amiss with your body, you can stop by pressing the red handle in the room. Would that be okay?” The girl said hurriedly.

“That would be fine. By the way, how is the fee calculated if it’s not for a full hour?” Rein suddenly thought of a question.

“Regarding the fees, sir, if it exceeds an hour, any time less than half an hour will be charged as half an hour, and anything over half an hour will be charged as a full hour,” she explained.

“Hmm, that seems reasonable,” Rein nodded with a smile.

Seeing Rein’s smile and agreement, the receptionist girl finally breathed a sigh of relief. Her service became even more attentive, and she took the initiative to ask:

“Sir, shall I take you there now?” The receptionist girl pointed to a corridor on the right.

Actually, it wasn’t her duty as a receptionist to accompany guests, but perhaps to make up for her earlier faux pas or maybe because of Rein’s handsome appearance, she was rather eager to help.

“That will be fine, thank you.”

“It’s my pleasure, sir, please follow me. The common and advanced rapids rooms are on the right side of the first floor. Every day, many sirs come here to train,” she explained as they walked.

Soon, Rein followed the girl through a long corridor to a spacious hall, where several long seats, similar to sofas and covered with soft deer leather, were placed.

On these long seats sat groups of burly, strong men, each one no smaller in stature than Rein himself.

It made sense—the rapids rooms were designed for Knights and Great Knights.

However, Rein also noticed that nearly all of them were holding weapons, which suggested that these people were likely waiting for the regular rapids room to practice their Extraordinary Battle Techniques.

It seemed that his choice was correct after all; if he had chosen the regular rapids room, he would have had to wait in line now.

“Sir, these are the advanced rapids rooms. You’ve already completed the paperwork at the service desk. You only need to swipe your Sword Bearer badge across this black wisdom slate to enter.”

“Until you cancel, you will be the sole user of this advanced rapids room,” the girl informed him.

“Alright, thank you,” Rein said, following the girl’s instructions and swiping his bronze badge.

Upon doing so, several lines of text appeared on the black wisdom slate:

“Start time: 13:33.”

“Charging rate: 15 Merit Points per hour.”

“Additional add-on…”

And with that, Rein had been led by the girl into one of the advanced rapids rooms.

Many of the muscular men in the hall looked on with envy.

“Pretty boys always have it easy. If it were me, I’d never have a girl volunteer to accompany me like this,” Baltan said enviously.

“Baltan, with your size, you could crush a girl,” teased a companion to the two-meter-three-tall Baltan.

“Don’t kid yourself; the guy can afford the advanced rapids room, which means he must have a pile of Merit Points. He could even be a team captain.”

“So young and so fresh-faced, how could he be a captain? He’s probably from a family with some clout, having gathered a good number of Merit Points in the Empire’s bureaucracy before joining the Sword Bearers,” analyzed a twenty-something man with a goatee.

“You’re right… what Kim says makes sense,” the others agreed, nodding their heads.
