Chapter 458 - Double Trouble (1) (1/2)
Auron and Julia were blasted because of the old man's self-destruction. Fortunately, they didn't die even though they had to consume a lot of health potion. What was more fortunate, there was no other enemy, so they didn't have to be wary to be killed because of the low health.
Julia, who was still gulping a health potion, also looked weary. Although the battle was over, the previous battle had taught her a lot, especially the blitz attack that a swordsman had. It was really fortunate she had Auron protecting her.
Julia knew although she had a higher level than Auron and better equipment, she was still lacking a lot compared to Auron in terms of fighting experience.
Julia wanted to ask something about the situation. She approached Auron, who was relaxing his muscle and focusing on something.
After the battle, Auron gained another 10 levels at once. It was thanks to the difference in level between Auron and the old man. Moreover, although Julia dealt more damage than Auron, the difference between them was not that much different. It was not like when he fought alongside Alice. The disparity damage between them was enormous.
Meanwhile, Julia also gained around 8 levels. The reason she got less level was because of the level she had been now. So, even though she gained levels, she didn't that focus like Auron.
Auron allocated his attributes point directly. He wanted to grow stronger to secure his life. During these recent days, Auron was experiencing a battle with a massive difference in power. Thankfully, all this time, he had a great teammate to help him. However, Auron knew he could never rely on external strength forever.
Julia approached Auron and asked, ”Who is that old man? Is he the source of these missing person cases?”
Auron glanced at Julia. She owed an explanation from him. Auron invited Julia to go back to the village.
Because of the old man trying to run away, the battleground had shifted to the outside of the village. Right now, Auron just wanted to relax and sat for a while inside the village peacefully.
Along the way, Auron explained everything that happened to Julia. Of course, he would omit some detail like Julia's team was a decoy, and his team was the real spearhead for this operation.
Auron also explained how he, along with Alice, met with Patrick and got in touch with the Asyaka Cult. Next, he explained the lure plan until Auron and Alice met with a new demonic monster. And how they killed all three of them.
The story continued until Auron arrived at the bar with the executor and met with the old man. Then, he continued until he had to separate from Alice and came to this village.
”And, that how I ended here,” Auron ended his story. In front of him, there was a hot tea prepared by Julia.
Auron and Julia had come back to the small house. It took Auron around 10 minutes to explain the story. Before Julia could ask further, a knock was heard at the door.
Julia and Auron both glanced at the door. Then, Julia took the initiative to open the door and greeted the guest.
