"Annihilated?" A ht position like a machine asked with a frown
In response, his subordinate lowered his body and replied, "Yes, Leader Ten Gluttony Squadron members from the operation and Philip from our Squadron died"
Philip was the real na Seon-Ho’s body with Perfect Person (A)
"uard down"
Theaddressed as “Leader” was nary, because he hadn't had any expectations in the first place After all, without expectations, there wouldn’t be disappoint to inforhly likely that it’s the work of the Arche and Specter who came up to the 2nd floor at the same time”
"…Hmm"
This was a bit of a surprise Philip was a pretty skilled fiend and was even level 115
e, level itself doesn't really mean much’
It had been 26 years since the 2nd floor opened In the meantime, most Players and fiends had already reached level 120, so it truly didn’table to bully soah your level was, you would still die if your head exploded and your heart was pierced
"That's a big problem," Pridea Leader, but he knew the truth…
e for me to be killed at any time’
This was the Fiend association It was a bloody place where your head could fly if onewell a hundred times before that one mistake It was a place where even a direct subordinate that looked like a docile cub could bite your throat at any ti for a while, Pride spoke, "Contact Gusion"
"Do you mean the Despair Squadron?"
"Yeah"
"What shall I say?”
A cooperative operation between the Pride and Despair Squadron would begin in Port Lane, a month and a half later
er then’
The association executive he served was a man without blood or tears
"Tell him that I'll take part in the operation myself"
Pride knew that the operation had to succeed if he wanted to preserve his life
"Wait, do you have time?" Arthur came timidly to Gilberto's room
So far, Arthur had no idea how to act in front of his father After all, he hadn't seen his father since he was very young
"Yeah"
The same was true for Gilberto From his point of view, his son, who only kne to baby talk just a few days ago, had co this disparity between thee, even for hih all sorts of hardshi+ps
"There's a good place to talk…"
Arthur led Gilberto out of the hideout The Wailing Mountains were named as such because the rocks that looked like they had been artificially carved see There were countless rows of rocks rising sharply toward the sky throughout the ht," Gilbertoon a rock outside the hideout looked up at the sky The night sky was so clear that one could see the stars Arthur took a can of beer from his Inventory and politely held it out to his father
"…Would you like a drink?”
"…Sounds good"
htly rew into a calm smile "You know, I think of that once in a while—ould I want to do with my father if he was alive"
“…”
ulped it down
" with you, Father There were a lot of things I wanted to ask you I wanted to hear about your old stories since I don't know much about my childhood"
“…”
Gilberto nodded He also wanted to tell Arthur stories as he grew up
"Take it"
Gilberto took a note from his Inventory and handed it over to Arthur
"Is this…?"
"That’s my diary"
“…!”
It was unclear whether Gilberto was getting slightly drunk or was feeling ehtly flushed face
"Arthur, I've used that since before you were born"
"…Is it okay for you to giveso precious?"
"Why do you think I wrote a diary? I wrote it to show rew up"
Arthur received the diary politely as if he was receiving a top-notch skill book When he carefully opened the diary, it ritten in soft handwriting that was easy for anyone to read
“…”
Reading the diary, Arthur sometimes smirked and sometimes looked sad But his face turned red when he read the story about his father changing his diaper more than five times a day
"Did I really do this?”
"Yeah Arthur, you were such a natural troubleh…</e story, but he didn't hate it It would have been e if others knew of this, but he wasn’t embarrassed in front of his father
‘Is this what it feels like to be a child?’</e was a first for hi actions he had done were revealed, his heart felt warm instead
at his son, Gilberto grinned It was a relief To be honest, he orried that it would be aard because there wasn’thow time had basically stopped for him while he was frozen
"Coer than er”
"Can I ask how you lived your life so far?”
"Of course Um First, when you and the other 5 Heroes couldn't come back”
The story between the two continued until the night fell The tho stayed up all night, didn’t feel tired at all It was rather fun for them It was to the point where Gilberto became worried if it was okay for a father and son to communicate this well
"Oh,</e”
“…?”
Gilberto stared at Arthur with his eyes wide open
"Just nohat did you say?"
"I asked Uncle to teach me"
