Chi-Woo and Philip went outside to find dawn approaching its tail end Chi-Woo let out a deep sigh once he returned hos had happened in the past couple of days, and his head was still in a corets, and he felt like he had safely overcome another difficulty Noas time for him to rest

—So, hoas it?”

As Chi-Woo lay on his bed, Philip flew over to him

—It was your first real expedition

Truthfully, Chi-Woo wouldn’t call that an expedition

—It’s not over just because you caht?

‘…The experience has gottenabout what?

‘A er’

—That’s what you have been thinking about for a long ti new?

It was true Chi-Woo had felt the necessity to beco to becoanized the infors from the expedition: the discovery of a survivor and an unexpected reward It was also clear that he would have accunificant number of merits fro to save the pay to use h for the greater good; it was tis for hi the expedition: heroes who had joined this mission as recruits didn’t need hi as soave them a push once, they would be able to do well for themselves

‘I realized my worth’ The one who needed the most care was Chi-Woo

Chi-Woo had established his foundation for growth in the cave Now, it was tiher, rowth syste your ranks?

‘No, I’ll do that later’

—Then, how?

Instead of answering the question, Chi-Woo looked up at Philip and said, ‘Thank you’

—Huh?

Philip was taken aback by Chi-Woo’s sudden declaration of gratitude

‘I think I can understand a bit whyyou told s first-hand’ At thatsky of the breaking dawn Chi-Woo closed his eyes, his lips curled into a se flipped Raphael had her glasses on today, and , she narrowed her eyes

“These guys Look at these guys” She shook the stack of paper a few tied immediately because the situation beca that they didn’t do anything even ere gathering the seventh recruits”

“Well, it’s a rare opportunity for theuel, who had come to report, said calmly Raphael chuckled It truly was rare Liber was known to be a place that even legendary heroes couldn’t do anything about, so it was even more unbelievable that so Liber, albeit only for a little The hero who had accoain a reputation that surpassed legends Half of the twelve families who lit up the Celestial Realm coveted such a title, especially after the prophecy orb changed its oracle

“Well, seeing the list of na the water”

“Three of the twelve families responded to the recruitment and were deemed suitable to enter”

“They were…but none of them passed”

“Sorry? Passed?”

“Well, one of theh her memories She hadn’t known it at the time, but it seemed the prophecy orb had a specific purpose in roups of recruits The first recruits were meant to be pioneers ould prepare a tavern for those who came after them The 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th recruits’ purpose was to sis fro poisoned water The 7th recruits were sent to pave the ith everything bet on one person Likewise, the 8th recruits had their own special characteristics But all in all, they were all elites that had gone through a very selective process

“Good, then—” Raphael pushed the stack of paper off her desk and got up But she stopped when she saw Laguel, “Hey, what’s up with you? Are you sick?”

Laguel didn’t look too good Raphael asked again, “Are you worried about so, spit it out No need to hold it in”

“…No,” Laguel replied and bit her lips “It’s nothing”

The day was bright, and after waking up, Chi-Woo suddenly thought, ‘Now that I think about it, Ms Mimi is quiet these days’

Then he reotten to turn her audio back on afterher Thus, he quickly called forth his user information and did that

[Haaaaaaa…]

A very long sigh followed

“Haha, hahaha…” Chi-Woo scratched his head aardly

[You really…you really are…]

Mimi couldn’t even find the words to say because she was so enraged She just kept sighing like she had suffered for a long tiulped and said in a calmer voice

[I am your helper I don’t kno you think of me, but you’ve crossed a line in the way you treated iveness After all, he had turned the audio off because of the annoyance he felt at the moment and not because he was truly bothered by her

—Huh? Who is this?

It was then Philip’s beauty radar activated

—Wow I only heard her voice…and she sounds like an angel from the Celestial Realm

[User Choi Chi-Woo? Who is this person?]

‘Us have happened while you weren’t around’ And thus, Chi-Woo began to explain what had brought Philip here in an apologetic tone As he did so, Philip ser down his nose with a proud look on his face

[A ht direction… I suppose that’s not a bad thing if true]

—Yes Let’s get along well, mademoiselle

[Yes, we can do that for noill be on the lookout though]

—Of course Let’s e nonsense I’m not your wife; I haven’t even married yet Neither do I have the tiniest bit of desire to become a parent with you]

—Oh my!

Philip raised both hands into the air But of course, he wasn’t the type to back down immediately

—What a formidable lady you are But I like that too A rose with thorns is what’s truly beautiful

[Why don’t you leave it at that?]
