After a few hours of gathering information, Jin finally got everything he needed to know after his disappearance.
Firstly, his Dragon's Nest organization is thriving as he expected, although he left so early, his disciples in the Dragon's Nest were doing just fine and in fact, they even managed to recruit many interesting and talented individuals.
Thanks to Jin's teachings and the books that he left behind for them to study just in case he's gone, most of them were finally improving just fine. Although they aren't on the line of the masters yet, each of them are enough to defeat a knight.
It won't be long before each of them will finally reach their dreams.
Jin would definitely visit them the next time he found a chance to do so.
Secondly, Jin also noticed that Arendelle has finally opened its gates. As he could see several ships from other Kingdoms coming in and out of the port.
Although Jin doesn't have any interest in the Kingdom, he knows that by opening the gates means that the problem of Elsa and Anna has been finally resolved.
However, he also heard they several Prince from other Kingdoms has started coming in with a marriage proposal to Elsa, as they heard the news that she's already 18 and is on the age to be married.
Jin just hopes that whoever that Elsa will be married to, must be a good man like he is.
'Whoever her husband will be, he must go through me first.' Jin resolutely said to himself inside his mind, not knowing that Elsa has already been destined to a certain Firebending/Devil guy.
Lastly, he has finally gained his bounty from several other Kingdoms. Jin first saw this obviously from Shrek who told him about his bounty.
To be honest, Jin doesn't care about this bounty thing since there are no bounty hunters who could capture him or kill him. Though they're a bit troublesome as his peaceful ordinary life would be disrupted by them from time to time.
But nonetheless, Jin would just have to carry on with his life as he saw the template percent of his Iroh Template.
95%
"I just need to enlighten a few more individuals and I'm good to go to the next world." Jin said to himself as he decided to make his moment last in this world before leaving and what else but to have an adventure?
"I think Shrek should be coming to rescue his Princess Fiona, right? It doesn't sound that bad to help him out." Jin placed his finger under his chin as he nodded several times before making up his decision.
"But first, I would have to tell Tigress and Rapunzel about me leaving. Who knows what they will do to me once I leave them again without any warning?" Jin added before jogging back to the castle.
***
"We'll join you." Rapunzel and Tigress said in unison after Jin told them about his upcoming adventure with Shrek.
"Eh?" Jin wasn't expecting this, he thought that they would rather stay in the castle and play with Anna or Elsa. However, he's not totally against them coming with him, in fact, he would be delighted as he's not that comfortable travelling with an Ogre and a talking Donkey.
"Sure, I mean. It's not like I could say no to both of you, right?" Jin said while Rapunzel nodded her head and replied.
"Finally, an adventure. I wonder how many interesting guys we'll meet? Hopefully, I would not meet a horrible Ogre or something." Rapunzel shuddered just by thinking about it. She had heard that Ogres are vicious and ugly creatures that feast on humans.
"Eh..." Jin was speechless at what Rapunzel said, should he tell her that they're going to meet up with an Ogre? But it's unwise to tell her that and it might make her change her mind on coming with him, so Jin decided to keep it to himself, after all, this is for her greater good.
'Yes, this is for the greater good .' Jin nodded to himself and said, being disillusioned that what he is doing is right.
If a certain old wizard were to hear him, he would definitely raise him a cup of appreciation.
"So? What are we waiting for? Let's go! I'll get my horse." Rapunzel said before kissing him on the cheek and started running towards the stables.
"You're hiding something, aren't you?" Tigress stepped forward and said to him in suspicions as she was squinting her eyes at him.
"No....." Jin answered slowly while looking away, however the more he looked away the more she squints her eye on him, so he finally gave up and sighed before telling her the truth.
"Well, we're going to meet an Ogre. I mean, it's not that bad right?" Jin smiled and said while shrugging.
"To me it's not but I don't know about Rapunzel. She doesn't seem to be fond of Ogres and such." Tigress replied while looking at the stables where Rapunzel was climbing on top of her horse.
"I mean, with you and me here. There's no reason to be afraid and it's not like this Ogre is like any Ogre that you have heard of."
"What do you mean?" Tigress asked with a tilted head.
"Well, first of all. He's not like other Ogres who eat humans. I think he only eats insects and such. And second, he's a very kind and good guy, as long as you don't disturb his peaceful swamp. And lastly, I've known him before, so there's no need to be afraid of him." Jin explained three reasons in one breath.
"And why are we going to him anyways? Surely, there's much better things to do here other than hanging out with an Ogre?" Tigress asked for the last time and in fact, she was right. Is there anything interesting in hanging out with an Ogre?
Fortunately, this Ogre isn't any normal Ogre.
"Trust me. He's on a great adventure to rescue a princess from a Dragon's Keep. Don't you want to fight strong beings? Here's your chance, fighting a literal Dragon is different from fighting a normal human." Jin winked at Tigress while convincing her. Jin feels like he's some kind of merchant that is enticing his customers to buy his products.
"A...Dragon?" Tigress asked in surprise as her fighting spirits seemed to have awakened. Obviously she knows what a dragon is. After all, there's a reason why Dragon Warrior exists back in her world. Many know that in some worlds, Dragons are known as beings with countless power at their disposal. Not to mention that they're sometimes even known to be beings whose purpose is to lay destruction in its wake.
"Is that true? There's a dragon in this world?" At this point, Tigress was staring directly at Jin's eyes as her own eyes can be seen to be filled with nothing but your excitement and fighting intent. It seems like Tigress would always have that blood of fighting strong opponents in her blood.
"Don't get too excited, my little kitty. Remember the last time you fought a strong opponent?" Instead of replying to her question, Jin made her remember her past mistakes. Back before he disappeared, when she fought a very strong individual to the point where she almost died and even brought Elsa to death because of her.
"I-...I've been training all this time ever since you disappeared. I'll show you this time how strong I've grown." Tigress was stunned at first as she indeed remembered her mistake in the past, but still. She wanted to fight again and this time, she's no longer who she used to be in the past.
"I'll take your word for it and just in case, I'll interfere if you get yourself in danger." Jin looked into her eyes and said in a serious tone.
"I assure you, you won't have to." Tigress raised her chest and smiled in confidence.
"We'll see that." Anyways, as much as he doesn't want to see Tigress getting hurt or almost dying like last time. But he also wanted her to grow strong, not for him but for her own good. If someday he died or disappeared again, he won't be there to protect her if something bad happens.
"Hey guys, let's go!" Rapunzel came riding in a carriage towards them as she excitedly said to them. It's unknown how she managed to get a carriage instead of a horse.
"You're too excited, Rapunzel. Do you have spare clothes?" Tigress chuckled and shook her head at Rapunzel's eagerness.
"Uh....yeah, about that..." Rapunzel scratched the back of her head in embarrassment as she realized her fault.
"I'll go and gather some clothes for us." Jin said before walking back towards their room and also to inform Agnarr and Iduna about them leaving.
***
A few minutes later, he finally gathered the clothes and told Agnarr and Iduna about them leaving, they only said a farewell goodbye and to take care of themselves.
"Let's go." Jin said to them as he entered the carriage and dropped the clothes and stuff before jumping on the Driver's Seat and took hold of the reigns.
"Adventure, here we come!" Rapunzel yelled outside the window as the carriage started moving and left Arendelle's walls.
As they left the walls and slowly disappeared in the horizon, another horse with a hooded figure also left the Kingdom's walls and started following the trails of the carriage.
Inside the hood was a white haired beauty. It was none other than Elsa!
"I hope Mama, Papa and Anna will forgive me for leaving without any notice." Elsa muttered to herself as she snapped the reins to urge the horse to go faster.
