"As long as you're aware and prepared," Headmaster Aronian nodded. "That is one matter I wanted I merely wished to bring up. On a broader note, be prepared to be approached by many powerful people, organizations, and forces even on matters unrelated to the Kandrian Throne War. There are organizations that will seek your patronage, offer sponsorships, and other agreements and transactions with you."

"I got a few of those when I was a Martial Apprentice too, shortly after becoming the finalist of the Martial Contest," Rui remarked, recalling distant memories.

He had also received such offers after becoming the seventy-The inaugural upload of this chapter took place via N0v3l-B1n.

second Virodhabhasa Champion.

"What you will receive from here on out will be much greater than that," Headmaster Aronian replied. "Martial Seniors have reached a level of power where the forces that can afford to regularly commission them usually seek to gain some form of direct long-term employment, bypassing the Martial Union. Carefully consider all the pros and cons of doing so when they approach you."

Rui nodded. "I'll keep that in mind."

"I'm sure you'll be prudent," Headmaster Aronian remarked. "Moving on to more important topics that are pertinent to you. There is much to discuss about the Hungry Pain technique that you offered as a contribution four, nearly five now, years ago."

Rui raised an eyebrow with interest. He was curious to hear what the Martial Union had to say on the matter.

"That is accurate," Headmaster Aronian nodded. "That is why we have decided to withhold from actually divulging the technique to Martial Apprentices."

Rui frowned, confused. "Then how...?"

"We altered the technique, replacing the self-hypnosis of the technique with active hypnosis from a mentalist Martial Artist," Headmaster Aronian. "The Martial Apprentice remains in a trance where we then hypnotize him or her to not recall the effects of the training. By the time they're read for the breakthrough procedure, they have no recollection of the Hungry Pain technique."

Rui's eyes widened with surprise. "That is a rather extreme measure to take."

"It is necessary if we are to hide the technique from the spies of the various powerhouses across the continent, not to mention powerful intelligence organizations like the Beggar's Sect and Shadow Guild across the continent," Headmaster Aronian reassured. "We have taken the highest level of information security measures to ensure that it will never be leaked."

"...What about the Kandrian Empire?" Rui wondered. "Unlike all those other organizations, the Kandrian Empire houses the Martial Union."

"We have signed a highly advantageous contract with the executive government and the Royal Army where we supply them with the service of the newly-enhanced Squire evolution breakthrough procedure in exchange for an extravagant amount of gold per Squire breakthrough we perform for them." Headmaster Aronian replied.

Rui smiled wryly, it appeared that the Martial Union had truly been doing well with the technique that he had given them. "Well, I'm glad to hear that the Martial Union appreciated the technique. It had been rather easy to develop when I decided to, so it didn't really click that it would become something so significant, back then."

He had created the Hungry Pain technique within a single day. Compared to the other techniques that he had created, the effort that he had put into it was rather trivial. Still, the fact that the Martial Union came to appreciate the technique to such a degree was good news, because it meant that his remuneration would be that high.
