Chapter 66 - Thanatos (1/2)
Asking my help to investigate this further. I get from their stand point of view that I'm qualified to do that. I did beat the S rank Behemoth and found the cause behind their sudden appearance, not to mention, I'm also the one who knew about Grim reaper and it's variant. It's understandable and logical choice to be made, but...
”Sorry, but I refuse” [Ash]
”Why!” [Malsia's knight]
””Can you please explain” [Ram]
”Simple, the same reason why I refuse to worked with Diana and the adventure guild in the first place, I can't find myself to leave those siblings of mine for a long period of time. This might sound selfish and in a way, it really is, but if possible I don't want to miss seeing them grow.” [Ash]
”You sound just like a father” [Ram]
”I sincerely just realized that myself” [Ash]
Yeah, it's a selfish thinking from my part but I can't help but to think that way. Knowing what the future hold for them as well as Goddess Achalasia request to make them happy, I feel like I want to be with them, even if it's for a while longer.
”I can request Princess Haliza to give you a generous amount of reward!” [Malsia's knight]
”I don't have any issue with money as of now, so no” [Ash]
”Besides, Estel right now is facing the same problem, so we would like him to investigate this matter here first before deploying him there” [Diana]
”Your highness” [Malsia's knight]
Why did I feel like she will force me to go there
”Diana, I'm sorry but what do you mean by deploying me there” [Ash]
”Hmm?” [Diana]
”Nothing...” [Ash]
Yeah, that smile say it all. I'll just protest about it later but somehow I get the feeling that it wouldn't help much
”Thank you so much your highness” [Malsia's knight]
Please don't talk like It's confirmed that I will go there
”Still, if Thanatos and the other grim reaper did appear, could it be possible that this is the sign of devil invasion Mr Ash?” [Noble]
”Just Ash is fine, but I can't say that for sure. While It's plausible that this could be the sign of a devil clan invasion, the opposite also hold true as we have neither evidence to support both sides of the arguments” [Ash]
”Could the grim reaper be part of the monster tame by the devil clan then?” [Qis]
”Possible, but highly unlikely. Just like how the devil clan get their blessings because of their connection to the fallen god, the grim reaper species are mostly associated with the God of Death itself” [Ash]
”Then how do you explain the corrupted part?” [King Estel]
