"Hmm...where are those documents?"

Galirothoxmus said to himself while finding a certain document in the peaks of paperwork in a room.

Due to Galirothoxmus's way of finding, almost half of the papers had fallen to the ground.

"Hmmm? Galirothoxmus? Is that you there?"

A familiar figure appeared in front of the blue door.

"Hmm? Ah, yeah."

Galirothoxmus responded as he noticed Lady Selene appear in front of the door to the department of proficiency, which housed information about Warriors and their biographies.

"What are you doing here?"

Lady Selene asked as she stepped forward toward Galirothoxmus.

"You know, I'm trying to figure out Ary's past. Maybe I'll find out the connection between him and the first Warrior."

While looking at the documents there, Galirothoxmus revealed his plan.

After hearing his testimony, a weary expression shaped down Lady Selene's face, and while placing her right palm over her forehead, she commented,

"You're really acting like a kid now."

Lady Selene was curious about it, but soon after, she realised that it would be useless to waste time on it since it only replenished their curiosity or nothing else.

"Oh come on, don't be like this."

Galirothoxmus requested, but suddenly his right hand hit a piece of paperwork and, with a "thud," it fell to the ground.

"Hmm?"

The attention of both Galirothoxmus and Lady Selene shifted to the paperwork.

Out of curiosity, Galirothoxmus picked up the paperwork and opened the front brown-colored page to see whose information it had.

"Found it!! It's about Ary!"

Galirothoxmus gushed in exhilaration and turned the page to look at the information about Ary.

"Well, let me show you then."

Since the curiousness took over Lady Selene, she stepped forward to look at it as well.

Galirothoxmus cracked up a little after seeing that even Lady Selene, who was complaining a minute ago, got curious to know about Ary's past.

Then, by shifting his gaze to the paperwork, Galirothoxmus called,

"Let's see.

Name: Ary Inochi.

Race: Human

Blood group: O+

Sex: Male-"

"Stop reading the typical details, go to the complicated one."

Lady Selene interrupted.

"Ah, yeah."

Galirothoxmus nodded, then started reading again.

"Ary Inochi, a boy with a gifted power of deities-"

"What?"

Lady Selene reacted.

Galirothoxmus tilted his head after reading a line and pondered,

'What's all this about?'

"Read more."

Lady Selene requested.

"Mhm."

Galirothoxmus nodded, then started reading more.

"The son of Warrior James Inochi and Warrior Mina Inochi."

Galirothoxmus halted after reading this.

Both Lady Selene and Galirothoxmus looked at each other with a perplexed as well as shocked look.

"What was that? His parents were Warriors?"

Lady Selene commented with a puzzled expression.

"I...I don't understand. According to what I learned about them later, they were died in a car accident. But about warriors..."

Galirothoxmus called out.

He knew nothing about Ary except that he was an orphan.

Also, he didn't know much except the fact that Ary's parents died in a car accident. But then, it was never mentioned that they were warriors. And if they were Warriors, how could Warriors even die in a car accident? It might be something else.

"I have an idea."

Galirothoxmus called out while raising his left-handed index finger.

"Hmm? What?"

Lady Selene asked, glancing at him.

Galirothoxmus stepped toward the door, suggesting,

"Only Father will tell about this. Let's go and talk with him."

"Mhm."

Lady Selene responded, then they both stepped out of the department of proficiency.

While walking forward in the dungeon, Kashi suddenly halted.

"Hmm? What's wrong, senior?"

Ary asked after seeing him suddenly halted.

Kashi frowned his eyebrows and grabbed the handle of his blade, saying,

"Stay on guard. Some demons are approaching us."

"Huh?! Okay!"

Ary got alerted and tightly grabbed his cutter blade of death.

He looked back at Mike and the others and commanded,

"Guys, stay on alert. Some demons will arrive soon."

"Got it!"

Emily replied as she held the string of her bow with her right index finger and thumb.

Erica and Mary stand on alert after hearing this.

While Mike, on the contrary, made a crying-like face, complaining,

"Seriously? More demons to come? Cut some slack, will ya?"

"Mike, stop whining and focus on surviving."

Emily ranted.

"Got it."

With a weary expression, Mike summoned his scythe again.

"Klrrr... klrr..."

Some demons appeared from the right side of the dungeon with an ear-hurting voices.

"What the-?!"

Mike almost freaked out after seeing their appearance.

"Are they...mermaids?"

Ary mumbled as he saw the appearance of the demons.

There were about twenty to thirty demons.

They look like mermaids that started crawling on the ground.

They have red claws with almond eyes, a green body, and long green hair.

The problematic thing was that they had nothing on their chest.

Like their boobs were revealed.

"Yeaheee!!"

With a pleasant roar, Mike fell to the ground and a flood of blood burst out of his nose.

"Mike?!"

Emily and Mary called out in panic after seeing him fall to the ground.

But why was he smiling?

"Oh God, boobs... soft... soft boobs..."

While continuously uttering these words with a pleasant smile, Mike was laying on the ground.

"Ermh..."

Erica and Mary were left speechless after hearing those words.

"Huh...?"

Even Kashi was left speechless with a disgusted expression on his face.

"Seriously...?"

Ary sighed after seeing Mike's reactions.

Ary was resistant to it. He wasn't resistant before that's why he got nosebleed back when ogling at girls but since Erica accepted him.

He devoted himself to Erica, and other than her, he didn't care much about other women. He also didn't feel embarrassed or nervous around another woman.

"You..."

Meanwhile, Emily's anger was starting to reach its peak.

She tightened her right fist in fury and, the next moment, she roared,

"You damn pathetic pervert!!!!"

"UWAGHK!!"

With an agonic roar, Mike coughed.

Sigh!

Ary sighed after seeing this and glanced at the mermaid beast.

"Ding!"

Suddenly, Almita made a dinging sound, reporting,

<A group of Crawler Angels has been detected.>

<Rank:-AAA-ranked Demon.>

<Attack type:- Seduction.>

<Weakness:-Water and Wind.>

"Oh, got it."

Ary responded after hearing their weakness, as he remembered that he had a water blade skill.

He smiled and tightened the grip of his blade, saying,

"Their attack won't work since I don't care about that damn seduction."

"Oh, boy~ don't look at me like this~"

One of the Crawler Angels said while placing her right index finger on her lips and looking at Ary with a seductive smile.

Ary smiled back with confidence that he might not be affected.

However,

Ta-dump! Ta-dump!

His heartbeat started beating rapidly.

"Wh-What's this?"

He mumbled as he grabbed his chest with his left hand.

"Ding!"

Suddenly, Almita made a dinging sound again, advising,

<Being overconfident only makes you fall, Host.>

<Their seductive skills are so powerful despite having a level lower than yours.>

<If you look at them, then you'll get affected by their charm.>

<They are just like charm demons.>

"Are you kidding me? How can I defeat them if I don't look at them?"

Ary bellowed in anger, yet his heartbeat started increasing with the charm of Crawler Angel.

Slash!

An agonic roar was heard.

"Huh?"

Ary reacted as he glimpsed the Crawler Angel in front of him getting sliced by Kashi.

After killing her, Kashi glanced at Ary and gripped,

"Ary, don't become that fragile in front of them. If you fail to protect yourself against them, then they'll make you their slave in bed. Do you know what I mean? That's why if you don't want this to happen, then fight with all your might. Don't get affected by them. Think about her; think about what she will feel if you do something indecent with those demons and leave her."

Kashi was hinting at Ary about Erica.

The number of Crawler Angels was increasing since more of them were coming from the right area.

Kashi had to protect everyone. That's why he told Ary, who was the strongest in his group, to safeguard himself.

Ary halted after hearing this.

His eyes shifted to Erica, who was creating a barrier around herself, Mary, and the unconscious Mike, while Emily was fighting with the Crawler Angel.

<Host, think about her. Don't you say that you'll only love her and none other than her?>

Almita tried to encourage Ary.

"Yeah..."

Ary called out while closing his eyes and tightening the grip of his blade, saying,

"She's the only girl that I love and with her, I frolic."

Then, some blue light started gathering around his blade.

"Hmm?"

Kashi reacted as he sensed something from his right.

He glanced to his right, at Ary.

"Hmm."

A smile formed on his face. He mumbled,

"He really is their son, after all."

"Boy, come here~"

"Let's have some fun~"

The Crawler Angels started coming toward him.

Ary didn't respond but said,

"She's the only one I need, not others."

Then, he opened his eyes, roaring,

"Lifeforce Assimilation–the wrath of the Water God!!"

With a roar, he swung his blade toward the Crawler Angels on the right, and some blue shockwave containing water flashed at them from his blade. Within a second,

BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

Even though it was a water attack, it still formed a massive explosion, and with that, the Crawler Angels perished.
