The Martial Unity

Rui could feel his heart beating fast. A slight grin of excitement crept up on his face.

It had been several years since he stepped into the Squire Realm, and today he was a high-grade Martial Squire without a doubt, he finally had come across an opportunity to learn about the Squire Realm.

"Unlike with the secret to the Squire Realm, the truth about the Senior Realm is not something that is universally divulged at one particular stage," She began. "Different nations, organizations, and groups have their own ideas of what stage to inform Martial Squires about the truth of the Senior Realm. There are many who go to extremes in the opposite direction, some believe that Martial Squires never ought to be told about the truth. Others believe that all Martial Squires should be told everything the second they step into the Squire Realm."

Rui raised an eyebrow at those words. That was quite interesting to know, he hadn't expected that the Martial World would be so divided on this matter. He wasn't in a position to have an informed opinion on the matter, but the two extremes did sound… extreme.

"Never telling versus telling all of them immediately," Rui pondered aloud. "Surely there has to be a reasonable middle in between."

"I agree," She nodded. "As does the majority. Most nations and groups inform Martial Squires about the necessity of becoming a Senior seed. I'm sure you have already been informed of this by whoever it is that performed the Squire breakthrough process on your body."

Rui nodded. He recalled being informed of the importance of developing the individuality of Martial Arts as a Martial Squire. That it was the path forward to higher Realms. However, that was very vague and general advice. It was just enough to set them on the right path.

"An even bigger controversy exists on whether Martial Squires should be told about the trigger to the Senior Realm," She continued.

"That's different from the truth about the Senior Realm?" Rui raised an eyebrow.

She nodded. "Informing you about what the Senior Realm is about serves to increase your motivation to achieve it, arguably, but the trigger of how to reach it is a separate matter."

"Hmmm…" Rui's eyes narrowed. "And what do you intend to do?"
