Chapitre 252: Secret quest
Everything was like a dream, Isao thought.
He had never thought that he would forge a relationship with Riveria.
'Eina, Aiz, then Riveria...'
The three women who had a connection with each other were already sleeping with him.
Isao wanted to say that he was a scumbag, but he knew that he wasn't the one who made the first move.
Yes, he could reject them, telling them what they did was inappropriate, but somehow, the thought of them would be sad, making him hesitate, so in the end, he could only go on even if the relationship between them had become so messy that he wasn't sure anymore.
Yet, this was also a trial he had to pass, and he was sure he would succeed!
"Ouch! Ouch! Stop pulling my cheek, Syr!"
"Isn't it rude to think about another woman when there is a beautiful woman by your side?"
"No, I am thinking about what kind of dinner to eat tonight."
"Really?"
Watching Syr, who was staring at him in doubt, Isao nodded. "Of course. You are here by my side. Why should I think about another?"
"Well, if you say so~?"
'So easy...'
Frankly, he was sure he would be cursed for going with another woman after flirting with Riveria, Eina, and Aiz, but this was his fate, and he couldn't escape it.
Gaining the power of Blazer, Isao knew that if he could awaken a certain power within this DNA, he should be able to escape from so-called "fate," yet he hadn't reached such a level, so he couldn't escape from his fate, but it was all fine since whether it was fate or trouble was also a chance of him to grow stronger.
At this moment, when he went to visit Chloe, Mia told him to help Syr to buy ingredients for their shop. While he felt reluctant, being stared at by Syr with a puppy-like gaze, there was nothing he could do, and frankly, he wondered what this woman wanted to do.
Syr Flova...
If it were others, they might think of her differently and never think of her as a fake identity, yet Isao knew that this cute woman was Freya in disguise.
Living as Freya was probably too bothersome for her, considering how overprotective her children were. Everyone would constantly watch over her, and they would try their best to please her.
If it was once or twice, it didn't matter, but if she received this treatment every day, every hour, every minute, even Isao had to admit that he would be sick. Even worse, their intention was good, so it was hard to refuse their goodwill, which made it even more troublesome.
To escape from such a life, Freya found someone and used the identity of that someone to live a double identity known as a Syr.
When she had become a Syr, she was no longer a goddess. She was just a mischievous waitress who worked as the Hostess of Fertility.
Still, while weird, Isao knew he had to treat Syr differently from the real Freya. After all, Syr or Freya didn't know that he knew her real identity, and if she knew that he knew her, he could imagine how troublesome the situation would be, so in the end, he decided not to know anything.
Nevertheless, Syr glanced shyly at Isao as she watched him holding all the ingredients they had bought. Her eyes also couldn't help but wander to his hand, which appeared to be free.
'It should be okay to hold hands, right?'
Unlike when she was a Freya, her personality as Syr was different. In this identity, she was a virgin, after all, so how could she jump into him and have sex directly when she was a Freya?
Still, she thought that her identity as Syr was nice as it made her forget about everything, and in this identity, no one knew about her past. She was just Syr Flova, the cute and mischievous waitress of the Hostess of Fertility.
Frankly, if Isao made a move on her, it would be great, but this guy had only made a move on Chloe, which made her pout.
Well, the one who made the first move was Chloe since this naughty cat was such a whore, who seduced the innocent him, but with Chloe as an example, if she made a move on him, he should jump into the chance, right?
As she was in a dilemma about what to do, suddenly, Isao stood before her as if protecting her from someone.
"What's wrong?" Syr was in doubt.
Isao didn't answer Syr's question and looked at the front area before him. "Come out. If you don't, I will blow this entire area to force you up."
"...." Syr.
"....." Unknown person.
At that moment, they were inside the back alleys within a row of houses in the district.
In other words, many people were living nearby, but Isao dared to blow up this area if the person who hid didn't come out, which showed how outrageous his thought was when they thought his experience was being attacked by Evilus; somehow, they understood why he was so extreme.
As for how Isao could blow up this district, considering how smart he was, they wouldn't be surprised if he got his hands on the bomb that was used by the members of Evilus who had committed suicide bombers before.
Nevertheless, Syr knew there was an enemy, so she moved closer to Isao's back, pressing her body against his.
"..." Isao.
"Wait! Wait! Don't blow up this place!"
All of a sudden, a suspicious figure dressed in a dark cloak that covered most of his features emerged from the air. "I am not someone suspicious!"
"...you are suspicious." 2x
Isao and Syr said at the same time.
"I don't come with a bad intention."
"You have three seconds to explain why you are here."
"...that's not enough."
[You have acquired Fels' DNA.]
[Do you want to absorb it?]
As Isao got the DNA of this suspicious person, he somehow understood why this person appeared before him.
"Hurry up."
"Okay, okay." Fels somewhat exhausted, but he decided to go on. "Iinuma Isao. I have a quest for you." Frankly, he wanted to tell this when they were alone, but Isao's sense was too frightening, so he could only adapt and adjust his plan as he didn't want to be viewed as an enemy, or else on the next day, he would enter the newspaper and his existence was known by many, he thought.
"A quest?"
"There has been an irregular outbreak of monsters on the 24th Floor. Several adventurers have already lost their lives. I would like you to investigate and more or less suppress the situation. Of course, I will be ready with your rewards. As for the objective of the outbreak, I believe it has something to do with the pantry recently located on that floor.
More importantly, there is a high chance this situation has something to do with the Evilus that have attacked you previously."
Isao raised his brows and asked, "How could you tell that the Evilus is involved?"
"Like you with your newspaper, we also have our own channels."
Isao thought for a while, and it was better not to ask anymore since he could imagine that this person would throw him with another annoying quest, but then, he needed money, and it wouldn't be bad to make this person and the one behind owe him a favor. More importantly, as he wished to level up faster, he knew that entering a troublesome situation was more or less the fastest way to become stronger.
'I should be able to become a Level 4 now.'
However, he wanted to max out his status first before he became a Level 4, and at the same time, he also wanted to end the trouble that haunted this place already so that way, he could focus on getting stronger.
"How much is the compensation?"
'As expected, it is easy to talk with him...' Fels thought. "It's about this much. If you have a request, then please tell us."
"Okay." Isao nodded, then asked, "By the way, am I alone on this quest?"
"No, you can ask for helpers, and we also have prepared you helpers on the Rivera. You should have known this person."
"Who?"
"Lulune Louie."
"Who?"
"...she is the chienthrope woman that you met on the Rivera in the past."
"You sure know a lot." Isao looked at Fels with a smile.
"...I have my own channels."
"Is that so? Last question."
"Please."
"Who are you?"
"I am just a poor, humble mage."
Isao raised his brows and shrugged his shoulders. "Well, I agree with your quest." He knew who this person was with his ability, so there was no need to make a fuss, and making him confident that he didn't know anything about him would give him more advantage, he thought.
"I am in your debt. Please head over there by tomorrow at the latest. Thank you."
Leaving those words, Fels disappeared from their sight as if he had never appeared.
Only Isao wondered whether it was too late to change "he" to "she" to address Fels since, instead of a man, she was a woman.
