The legendary warrior

"A lot of powerful warriors had died during that war against the devil race, and although Paul survived, it had cost him a lot. By the time the war had ended, he had almost run out of life essence and was on the verge of death.

Thus, he extracted the Time Seal's core before he breathed his last, for he knew that it was the only way that he could keep the seal from disappearing with him.

And that was how the River of Time came to be. He turned the seal's core into the river and stored it in this space where time flowed differently. He hoped that the new Time Seal could be formed with time power.

And just as he expected, the old Time Seal's core formed the new one with the help of time power," revealed Paul's will.

"I see. That means this Time Seal is the new one," Ricky responded, nodding thoughtfully. Now that he had heard the explanation from Paul's will, he was beginning to understand everything.

"Take this as one more gift from Paul to his successor," Paul's will said after a while, gesturing to the seal.

"Thank you! I really appreciate it," answered Ricky gratefully. He couldn't think of any other way he could express his gratitude, so words would have to suffice for now.

"With all those stuff dealt with, I have something else to discuss with you," remarked Paul's will suddenly in a serious tone. "What is it, sir? I'll do what I can do for you.

Just tell me, and I promise I'll do my best!" Ricky immediately responded earnestly.

"If it's okay with you, I would like to be the Time Seal's hermit spirit," Paul's will offered seriously, leaving Ricky dumbfounded.

He stared at Paul's will with an astonished look on his face.

"Are you sure? But I don't think I can let you be the Time Seal's hermit spirit... I feel like that would be somewhat disrespectful to Paul..." Ricky immediately protested, shaking his head in dismay.
