Let's Train Heroine - Chapter 358

Chapter 358: Heroine’s Region Rank
In the skies above the vast expanse of the world, a magical board floated high, visible to all who looked up. This board, shimmering with ancient magic, displayed the names of the 72 Regions, their ranks, and their achievements. It was a constant reminder of the world’s hierarchy and power balance.

For centuries, the board had been a symbol of stability, with the top names rarely changing and the lower ranks shifting only occasionally. But today, something unprecedented happened.

As the board glowed brighter than usual, a new name appeared beneath the 68th Region.

“60th Rank: Frostflower Region”

The change was instantaneous, and its impact was felt across all the regions.

Within Frostflower Region

The atmosphere in Frostflower Region was still buzzing with excitement. Maris, Lucan, Bing, Nyx, and Vrinda stood together, reveling in the pride of seeing their newly minted 60th Rank on the magical board. But just as they were about to fully indulge in the triumph, a familiar voice cut through the excitement, drawing their attention.

Aurelia, who had been quietly observing from the background, stepped forward with a slightly amused, yet knowing smile.

“Congratulations, my dear friends. We have earned our place in the ranks.”

Everyone turned to look at her, still riding the high of their victory.

“Isn’t this amazing?” Nyx asked, grinning. “We’re not even last!”

Maris smiled. “Yeah, 60th. Not bad for a Region that was just a Semi-Region.”

Bing, practically bouncing on her heels, added, “Does this mean we’re famous now? Do we get a parade or something?”

Aurelia’s smile widened, but there was an unmistakable glint of mischief in her eyes. “Famous? Maybe. But you should know that 60th isn’t exactly the glorious place you think it is.”

The group fell silent, looking up at her in confusion.

“What do you mean?” Lucan asked, his voice calm but curious.

Aurelia chuckled softly and took a step closer. “Well, the ranking of the Regions doesn’t just depend on strength. There are three key factors that determine where you stand: strength, economy, and people’s happiness. And while you’ve done quite well, Frostflower still has a long way to go.”

Bing furrowed her brow. “Wait, so strength isn’t everything?”

“Exactly,” Aurelia nodded. “Your Region is ranked 60th because it has a balance of these three factors. Strength alone won’t get you high up in the rankings.”

Lucan’s eyes narrowed, as he took a moment to absorb Aurelia’s words. “So, what does that mean for us?”

Aurelia smiled slightly. “Well, let’s take some example. There is the 72nd Rank, a Region called Taldor. Taldor is a mighty place in terms of strength, but that’s all they care about. Their economy is virtually non-existent, and their people… not so happy. They rank 72nd despite being the 3rd most powerful in combat because they lack the balance we have.”

Nyx crossed her arms. “So, you’re saying we’re stronger than them in economics and people’s happiness?”

“Yes,” Aurelia said firmly. “That’s why we are higher than them.”

Maris nodded slowly. “And that’s why we’re 60th?”

“Exactly,” Aurelia confirmed. “Now, let’s move on to the 71st Rank. That would be Itharos. They’re the 5th richest Region, but their combat abilities are dismal. The people there live well, but they’re weak in battle. That’s why they’re ranked 71st, despite their wealth.”

“Itharos…” Vrinda repeated, trying to recall if she had heard of it. “So, they’re rich, but weak?”

“Yes,” Aurelia replied. “And then there’s Vardant Region, which is currently ranked 70th. Vardant’s people are the happiest in the world. They’ve cultivated a society of joy and peace, but their economy is weak, and their strength is almost non-existent. So, despite having the happiest people, they sit at 70th.”

Bing tilted her head. “But… I thought Vardant was stronger than us.”

Aurelia shrugged slightly. “Vardant is strong,” Then she smiled, “But, real reason Frostflower is ranked 60th is because of me.”

Everyone paused, their attention now fully on her. Lucan raised an eyebrow. “You?”

“Yes,” Aurelia said, almost casually. “I am powerful enough to destroy an all Region below our rank with a flick of my hand expect Taldor. I am rich enough to buy places like Vardant and all regions below is except Itharos. And, Kerum made sure that people live happily. Although we are not as good as other regions yet, the people here are still happy.”

She smiled at their stunned expressions. “Simply put, our Frostflower Region is ranked 60th because I am strong enough and wealthy enough to push it up the ranks. Without my influence, we’d be much lower.”

The group was silent for a moment, absorbing the weight of her words.

Maris blinked, then let out a soft laugh. “So, we’re riding on your coattails, huh?”

Aurelia’s eyes twinkled. “Exactly. But don’t worry. You still have plenty of potential.”

“Well, that makes sense,” Lucan mused, looking at Aurelia, “You’re certainly a force to be reckoned with.”

Bing looked between them, wide-eyed. “So, we’re not really the 60th because of our hard work?”

“Not entirely,” Aurelia teased. “But that doesn’t mean you haven’t done well. You just have… a little extra help from me.”

“Sounds like a good deal,” Nyx said, grinning. “Now, what’s we have to do?”

“You have to grow stronger, make economic strong and make sure that all people living here are happy. However, before that, we need to defeat 59th Region in competition to enter 50s ranks. So, after a week, I will start your training, making you all, Master Class III. After that, we will fight 59th Region and enter 50s rank. Our goal is 1st Rank.”

Everyone nodded. Excited about it. While, Lucan and Virnda has some ideas to make their region rich and happiest. However they have to wait, they need to understand many things before they two could implant the plan they thought.

As for Maris, then Maris was thinking of adding her elder sister with her and Lucan. She felt that it’s time to add spice in her sex life.
