They are waiting for Zachary's decision on this matter.“I will do this inspection later, now we have to secure the location! There will be a lot of things that will happen if that area is not inspected immediately!”“That's right, according to the records I gathered, the area that was discovered was indeed a hotbed for the undead, if left unchecked it could be a bad thing! It would be best if this was all dealt with immediately!” Pardom replied.“Higura, can you check this?”“Leave it to me! I will do that right away!” said Higura in a tone full of high confidence.After the meeting, Lexy rushed into her room. “Why would the Guild Master want to directly check the location? What crystal is that exactly?”***Gladio had just returned from a quest, he was carrying a large bag."Welcome back! How?"Gladio put the pouch on the table. "I've done the desired quest!"That maid chuckled after seeing the blood from the bag darkening the color. “F-Fine, this is your payment!”"Don't you want t
The two of them stared deeply, they were both in a very gripping silence.“Before that, I wonder what your name is?”"My name is Gladio!""Gladio! Alright, introduce my name is Lexy! I'm glad to be acquainted with an adventurer with great potential like you! Aside from the matter we talked about earlier, I've heard some great things from the Guild's side! You were able to defeat an attack by monsters in a village, and you also defeated a dragon!”“It is nothing more than a meaningless string of words! Ordinary adventurers would definitely be able to do this, you don't need to overdo it!”“All the real greats would never tell anyone that they were extraordinary! Now that the conditions are getting more and more uncertain, I'm afraid that your crystal discovery will invite another disaster!""Has an inspection been done?"“Yes, my comrade named Higura along with the Guild members have already made observations, now just waiting to hear from them I hope there won't be any trouble! Here e
"Are there only two?""Of course not, there's one more and this is what made me want to invite you, I wanted to see if you did inadvertently trap the entire Guild in danger!"The atmosphere became quiet.Gladio slowly sighed. “I don't understand what you're talking about, but if you really want to ask for my help there must be a price paid for this!”Lexie nodded. "Of course, I'll give you the money you deserve!"“What if I don't want money? You know that I've completed a lot of high-risk quests, if you want to sue, maybe the payment will have to be a lot!”"So what do you want?" asked Lexy who gave off a murderous look."That is true!" Gladio held his chin. "I want something that makes me a lot more satisfied with this and doesn't hurt me!"“So you want to get a reward that has a commensurate advantage!”“Yeah, how about you have your whole body? In other words you must become my slave!”"No way, don't be presumptuous of you talking like that!" replied Lexy in a high tone.“I thought
“Do you feel that life is boring?”A question that is quite confusing, in the middle of the night that was so quiet the two of them looked at each other at the fire together."What do you mean?"“I just want to know how you view life? I see that everyone has their own view on life, if I may, I want to know how you view everything that has happened!”“That's right, I actually never had a problem with that! When I was born, I once asked myself about the purpose of this life! I don't know why I was born in this world, but as I get older, I come to understand that life has hidden meanings! Maybe I won't know what that means, but I still have a strong desire to keep going and keep looking to the future! I am afraid that in this life I will be nothing!”“I see that you have quite a calm mind, don't you want to become a famous adventurer?”"What's popularity for? I'm doing this because I like it, it's useless if a lot of what I do just wants to please others, the first to be happy is myself!
"What is this water?" asked Lexy with a surprised face."That drink is a stamina booster, I think taking it would be advantageous!""Oh, I see! To think that a person with fighting skills like you would be able to think of such a thing!”"Don't joke, I'm just doing what I can, after all that drink will be very rare for me to use!"Lexy understands why Gladio is able to complete quests with a high level of difficulty, Gladio's firm and calm attitude is a sign that he is able to think wisely.Then they resumed their journey, and the second night had come again to hinder them.Maybe today they didn't get much attack from the monsters, but what happened still gave the body a horrifying feeling."I think I can trust this man, there's nothing wrong with letting go of this tense feeling!""What is it?"“N-Nothing...” Lexy's cheeks turned red after continuing to stare at Gladio silently.Gladio was silent with sharp eyes looking at Lexy, he didn't want Lexy to think of a bad plan that might h
"Now is the time for me to destroy this crystal!" Gladio's palms were wide open which was then followed by a giant fireball that immediately lunged at him.But, even though it gave rise to a fairly large explosion, the attack still didn't have a significant effect.Gladio was surprised by this, slowly he looked at his own palm. "Is the power that I have still not so strong that it is unable to destroy this crystal?""What happened? Why is the strength of this man unable to destroy it?”Gladio tried it one more time, this time using power with a much larger fire causing the room to fill with a fiery red light.During the process no changes occurred to the crystal, everything was still solid and so shiny.“Hmm… do I have to attack like before?” Gladio now concentrated energy into his entire right hand, the energy starting to propagate until everything became crystal clear.When he was ready, he immediately used high speed to crash his hand into that cystal. However, here Gladio's attack
This transformation makes Mazy's powers even greater, but her appearance is terrifying. Gladio was a little creeped out by this."I'll kill you right now! Penetrabilior!”The attack in the form of sharp energy immediately shot, Gladio made a protection from magic energy.It was just that he was blown quite far away, the pressure from the attack was truly overwhelming.“Strong, this woman is one of the demons to watch out for, her strength is so high!”Mazy charged towards Gladio, now that Gladio had released a huge burst of fire. It only took a few seconds for the attack to devour Mazy's body.“Vastar....”Gladio was shocked, his body was then hit by Mazy's hand which dragged him on the ground. Such a long straight path was clearly engraved.“S-Shit...” Gladio let out an angry scream, then grabbed Mazy's wrist which finally caused Mazy to be shocked. His body suddenly felt a tremendous heat. "This is not a fire element!"What Mazy said was true, what Gladio did was scatter dark energy
"Extraordinary!" said Zachary in a tone full of surprise inside. "He doesn't show any fear at all, it's as if there really isn't anything to worry about!"Zachary was only able to direct his eyes after all Gladio's words had been said."I see, from what you said it was clear that there was a complicated problem here, I actually don't know why this happened!"“Does this all have something to do with the Demon God?”“Demon God, I don't understand that! But, if one were to assume, that was the case, this plan had been orchestrated by the Demon God to do something bad! And, after this, the unexpected will definitely happen! What do you think the monster is really planning?”“I don't know exactly what the thoughts of a Demon God are, the name alone is enough to tell me that the creature has a high position!”“Yes, there is a legend here about one monstrous creature possessing high power! From a long time ago that creature became a legend that was until now feared, but I didn't expect that
