"Master, if you knew you would die today, what would you do?"“Again you give horrible sounding words! Do I have to answer those words?”"That's up to you, here I'm not forcing you!"Gladio held his chin. “If I died today… maybe doing the best thing was something I could do, and I wouldn't think that what I did today was a mistake!”Alice was silent while gazing at the stars. "I always felt like dying before, this life is really so difficult that it causes the spirit in my heart to just die!"This thought was just what Gladio wanted, he had no right to comment on this.The next day....They both returned to make a fairly long journey."How far are we actually going?" Alice asked, beads of sweat on her face popping up profusely."Don't complain too much, we'll soon be at the location point!"Gladio's words can be proven, from the top of the hill they have seen a solid building which is believed to be the location of what they are trying to visit.“Almost there!” Alice said, seeing the
Gladio and Alice spent the night in a deserted forest, the quest they did was unexpectedly taking such a long time, they had to wait until morning came."As usual, tonight it's always cold air!"“That's natural, the cold air is something that characterizes the darkness of the night! You shouldn't have a problem with this!"“T-That's right, I might be overthinking this! So what will we do if we meet the monster that will be the target of this quest?”“The possibility of skinning that monster is a good thing!”Alice got goosebumps hearing that. “M-Master, don't tell me that you…”"I'm serious!""I thought you would say that!""Why? Don't you like this?"Unable to answer Alice, her face just looked down languidly.“I understand that you will feel that what I am doing might be an outrageous act, but this is the way to survive any problems that come your way! You won't be able to survive if you only rely on other people!”“I see, it's just that this feels unacceptable to me! As an Elf who
For the first time Gladio saw Alice put on a more serious attitude, this was completely different from what usually happened."If you've made up your mind, then I have no right to stop you from acting!""Thank you very much! I will kill them with all my might!” She didn't know how to act anymore, there was only faith ingrained in her body that wanted to keep telling her that now was the time for her to do something she had never done before.They saw Alice as a weak girl who wouldn't be able to do anything, smooth white skin with a cute face couldn't be trusted to be able to put up a terrible fight."Don't push yourself, you better accept what I said earlier! You will have a comfortable life without any violence!”Alice stepped up and said, “What do you call a comfortable life? All I hear is nonsense that seems to say that life is very easy to live, and you only want to use other people for personal gain!” Her body put on a standby position. "I'd be happier to see your tongue cut off
“Give up!” said Gladio which added to Alice's sad mood.“W-What are you talking about?” Alice's eyes were glaring at Gladio.Meanwhile, Gladio also gave a serious look. “I think that you must have understood that this journey that we are going on will definitely be full of obstacles, and one of them is defeating the attitude in this body, you must be able to defeat the softness that always gets in the way! There's no way you'd think that the life you're living will find ease! You should have known that this trip was full of risks from the start! It's impossible if you find something soothing! Remember that what will happen in your life is nothing more than suffering and horror than what is about to happen!”Alice was silent hearing these words, she had just remembered what had happened. And Gladio wasn't wrong.Everything that happened had been warned by Gladio so she had to take her attitude seriously.“You've killed someone else, in other words your hands are stained! You can choose
“I am like a cloud that has no clear destination!” Alice's hand was still tightly gripping the fruit in her hand.After 1 hour Gladio was back there.“She doesn't seem to have changed at all, it can't be helped that mental problems are something that won't be easily resolved!” Gladio sighed. "Are you ready to go on a trip?"“Neh… Master!”Gladio was silent, he slowly looked at Alice's face full of curiosity."What's?"“What is your purpose in this life?”The question that instantly caused Gladio's confusion. "If you ask this question, I actually don't really understand how to deal with this life! I'm just doing what I can do, I won't force myself to do what other people say! In this life there are many things I want to find out! One of them is why the figure I just met as a master had to be killed, we haven't even had time to do any further introductions!" Gladio's eyes dropped to the ground.It was at this moment that Alice first saw the emotions inside Gladio's body, not believing w
The little girl could no longer stand, she fell due to a stone blocking her feet.His face was filled with tears that kept pouring down, the image of the bad things that was about to happen was now clearly playing in his head.“H-How is this?” asked the little girl from the bottom of her heart, she couldn't bear to see what kind of treatment it would be, her eyes tightly shut.Crash...The crisp sound of a sword slashing hummed loudly, she didn't know if this sound was a good sign or a bad thing. Slowly she started to open her eyelids, and in front of her that monster had fallen with its body split in two.Standing up Alice who had a face full of tension, this was indeed an extreme act, and she had to fight against the doubts in her body. Her breath just kept going up and down.The blood from that monster was truly a disgusting sight."What have I done?" Alice looked at the face of the little girl who looked happy when she managed to come. "Are you hurt?"That girl shook her head, it
Alice's cheeks turned red, a compliment from Gladio was rare.“But, you can't take this as a solved problem yet, there's a massacre going on somewhere else! The assigned adventurers aren't that great at dealing with this problem which ends up causing a complicated problem!”It was clear that the abilities of the assigned adventurers were not so great as to cause tragic deaths.“Master....” Alice suddenly fell, Gladio swiftly restrained that girl body.“You have struggled too much to cause the body to become exhausted like this! Leave the rest to me!” Gladio took Alice's body to a place where the monsters would not reach.On top of a tall building, he put Alice who was lying helplessly.Everyone hoped that this was just an unnecessary nightmare, but unfortunately it wasn't as nave as one thought, the monsters they were dealing with kept on attacking.Crash...This annoying noise caught the attention of the monster leader, he turned to the source of the sound. And, there was Gladio who
After that incident, people started to gather. Their faces were still in shock at the situation."What... so there's been an attack on a town?" asked Lexy whose eyes were wide.“Right, information also says that in the midst of the chaos there were many adventurers who tried to defeat the monsters, but they were all defeated until a man emerged who was able to defeat the monster leader and bring peace back to the way it was!”"A man!" Lexy no longer needs to ask who did this, she already understands that that man was Gladio. "Okay, now back to your duties!"He then go away from there.“So, he's back in action! It's not for nothing that I rely on him, but what makes him have to act so seriously in this condition?”***The chaos from the events that happened until now was being cleaned up by the people."Master, I'm sorry, I was useless in doing things before!" Alice lowered her head with a face filled with disappointment.“It's okay, I won't consider it a mistake, and it's all somethin
