Chapter 127: Primeval Aegis League (1/2)

”Why are you following us?!”

Amry snarled at the two behind us. Since she agreed to guide me through this city, we left that place after talking to the official of her faction. The three received similar orders, stay in this city for three days and await new orders.

Err… for Heroes to be ordered like that, I guess that only happens here where they were not really needed. There were those anime where those summoned Heroes were just treated as employees or mercenaries so I guess this is normal.

However, that didn't sit well with me. It's not like they wished to be summoned here.

Since this is just my first day, I'll just observe and see how this world runs.

”We received the same orders. Since Daisuke needed a guide, isn't it better to have three than one?”

Kazeyoshi answered her with that idiotic grin on his face.

”If it's just Matthew then it's fine. I don't want you to infect me with your idiot virus.”

This girl. Her tongue was proven to be an effective weapon against Kazeyoshi.

Upon hearing that, he flared up again as he pulled out a katana from his Necklace.

”This little runt! Let's have another duel!”

”Stop it.”

When Matthew saw that, he quickly got in between them to separate the two.

”You two, are you actually interested in each other?”

I couldn't help but comment. Ever since they found out each other's identity, the two were always bickering at each other.

Err… Mostly it's because of Amry though.

”Huh? I'm more interested in you than an idiot like him.”

Amry's answer came quickly.

Don't drag me to your quarrel. Okay?

”There's no way I would be interested in a foul-mouthed little girl.”

Kazeyoshi also rebutted almost instantly.

Little girl, eh? These Heroes were all in a league of their own in terms of their aesthetic and Amry is nowhere near a little girl with that figure of hers that she always flaunted.

”Matthew, what do you think?”

Giving up on the two, I turned to Matthew who's between them.

”They're hopeless.”

With that sentence, we both shrugged and let the two continue on what they're quarreling about.

After what seems to be a few minutes of walking along the wide sidewalk of the city with the two still bickering behind us, we arrived at the center of the city where the Nysia Tower is located.

Err... it's the biggest and the tallest skyscraper here which housed the Headquarters of the organization running this city which is, of course, headed by the Mythic-rank Pilot Nysia, The Primeval Aegis League.

According to the info recorded in the database that could be accessed from the phone, The League was started by Nysia way before she became a Gold-rank. With her as the center, they built up riches by becoming mercenaries to various countries that were still existing at their time. Those countries have already fallen or wilted due to the lack of resources which were being hogged by the three factions.

One of those was the Flama Kingdom which was where the founder of the Principality of Eldur came from. The founder was a Prince of that kingdom that was sent out and given a territory by his father. Due to certain circumstances, the Flama Kingdom wilted while the Principality of Eldur remained standing and now one of the three global superpowers.

When Nysia reached the Mythic-rank she gathered her allies and took this territory which was something like a skirmish zone for the three factions.

Of course, the three factions opposed her at first but in the end, they succumbed to her power that even their Mythic-ranks failed to trip.

Thankfully when we arrived at the entrance where two Metagens were stationed to guard the establishment, Amry and Kazeyoshi stopped.

Kazeyoshi turned to me and explained.

”Since you don't have an identity yet, they will surely investigate your background but with us here, I'm sure they will link you to the beings from another world.”

I thought so. I still need an identity and the most convenient was to use these three. That way I might become someone important for this organization. And… I think I will be important enough if they measured my Brain Capacity.

”Uhm. We're kind of famous here because of our strength to fight even the Legend-ranks. I just didn't think that they would be the same as me, an Earthling.”

Amry said. Though it sounds like she's boasting, I know that she's only providing more information that their identity carried some weight here.

Since they're all under someone else, most likely, the information about the other two was being blocked for each of them hence they have no idea about each other.

And it's also probably why they were given three days off. They will be thinking of what to do now that the three finally knew the identity of each other. Will they force them to fight each other? It's been three years and the three couldn't just leave their respective factions. Though they were kind of using them, they surely received a lot of benefits from them.

”We can vouch for your identity.”

Matthew added which summarized what the other two said in a few words.

Upon entering, we were immediately greeted by the receptionist who even got out of her station to welcome us.

Err… of course, they're focused on the three and not me.
