[That bastard’s not human Only his outer shell is human, but the inside is different It has to be the case, or it doesn’t , I felt some kind of unknoer inside his body It felt like all hell would break loose if it burst…]

Chi-Woo listened to the fish and blinked in confusion

‘Ms assistant?’

[They see those lines]

Mied the topic

‘Wait, you can understand what fish are saying? Do fish even talk?’

[It’sMoreover, they’re not ordinary fish, but fish living in holy water]

Chi-Woo pondered for a long while whether Mi However, his assistant had never told hi about the unanswered question as he prayed and had dinner with Hawa afterward

While he was in theare you going to just keep running?”

“…I don’t know,” Chi-Woo said while chewing “Maybe until I can kill all those monsters outside?”

Hawa looked exasperated by his ridiculous response Now that Chi-Woo thought about it, Hawa had told hiends He didn’t kno strong they were, but he knew at least that the ainst thereat if we can escape without having to confront them,” Chi-Woo amended “But we can’t bet on that We need to be at least strong enough to avoid their attacks head-on and escape” In other words, Chi-Woo was going to make plans with the presumption that they would have to face the ree with him in this“And you’re planning to reach that level by just running?”

Chi-Woo was silent He understood Hawa’s reaction Iood idea, but being physically strong and being good at fighting were completely different matters Just as a person didn’t becoine, Chi-Woo needed to be able to utilize his improved physical abilities

‘I haven’t…learned how to fight yet’ Chi-Woo smacked his lips He had learned very well fro, and how to strengthen his resolve Chi-Woo kept Ru Amuh’s words to heart and ran every day Ru Aht in real combat, but unfortunately, before he could do so, they went out to explore the area and got separated

“We need to fight, but…” Chi-Woo put the fruit he was holding to his mouth and continued as he took a bite, “I don’t kno to fight”

Hawa blinked “How?”

Chi-Woo replied indifferently, “Is it strange that a hero can’t fight?”

“No” Hawa shook her head She knew that there were heroes who didn’t specialize in close combat; this was also the case for the sorcerer from the fifth recruits

She turned to the statue and asked, “Won’t establishi+ng a contract with a God help?”

“No, that won’t change anything” Chi-Woo sighed “There won’t bea spiritual monster”

Hawa nodded and pondered for a , “Should I teach you then?”

Chi-Woo gave her a strange look andhis hands with a suppressed sht How can you—"

“You lost your power as a hero, right?” Hawa cut him off “And if you really are a hero who doesn’t kno to fight…I don’t think I would lose to you”

Chi-Woo was about to avert his gaze but focused on Hawa again “…Are you serious?”

“Yes,” Hawa said “I told you I’ve received various training since I was young” As the Shahnaz tribe’s heir, Hawa had undergone robust and strict training; hand-to-hand fighting was part of it Shakira had also told them that Haas a child who could at least protect herself wherever she went

“Hirl asn’t even twenty yet; she looked seventeen athis fist at a s were different on Liber compared to Earth, weren’t they?

Hawa interrupted his thoughts and said, “If you don’t believe hting you?”

“If we exchange a fee can roughly judge each other’s skill level”

Chi-Woo narrowed his eyes at her He was feeling confident since his staone up to E rank

“Fine Let’s do it”

Chi-Woo stuffed the last reot up They soon found the each other with an appropriate distance between them

“Please tellposture He even took a few steps on the spot Hawa blankly stared at his footwork and let out a small ‘pfffh’ It was the second tiot e?”

“No—it’s nothing” Haered her head and shook with suppressed laughter for a while before schooling her expression into her usual indifference “Do you want tothat it would be no fun without a bet “The loser has to accept one request from the winner”

“Why so suddenly? I don’t want to accept a request that’s too hard to fulfill”

“Don’t worry It’s so you can easily accomplish”

As expected, there was a reason why Hawa suddenly suggested a bet She wanted so from him, and she seemed completely assured of her victory Chi-Woo pondered for a few moments, and the corners of his lips curled up He suddenly thought of a good idea

“I can also ed and nodded There was no reason for her to say no

“That’s good I got it I’ll also make a request that Ms Hawa can easily fulfill”
