The dark cloud keeps getting worse, the thunderclaps it released was ringing inside their earbuds.
It keeps getting louder, however in the moment of crisis a panel popped in front of vaelkar and the broken immortal system reappeared from his very eyes.
[Host, please calm or else death was inevitable]
[too many innocent people nearby if that was what you wished then… Be it] In system panel, words could be seen the world frozen however it only a slowing down of time.
"You finally appeared, you who tried to woke me up from my nap, I ignored you. However, when I answered your call… You are nowhere to be seen as if you've been vanished] Vaelkar said those words while looking directly at the system panel.
[I mean… Who don't get tired haha]
the system laughed and a sweat appeared on panel.
[before you woken up, was the moment I shutdown my self and restart]
[I tried to talk to you once but you ignored me…]
The system kept talking its unsaid words until the main point arrived.
[I give you a quest!! Conquered a gates, the rewards will be depends on the ranked of the gates u conquered for a month]
[I wished u an easy time host…] the system vanished from his eyes.
"What do you mean by this!! heyyy!!!" Vaelkar shouted, the major general loki and the others were confused by the situation.
They caught vaelkar talking into the thin air and pointing his fingers to the blank space. As if they thought if the grand archmage before them was in his right mind.
The lightning spark in his hands started to calm.
The dark clouds slowly dissipate.
"Why have I never heard of this person before but… "Kairo the s-ranked hunter wondered and a thought crossed his mind on the incident that had happened earlier.
"uh-hum" Loki cleared his throat.
"Let's leave this matter aside and we'll be in touch soon" Loki pulled something in his pocket and he gave the contacr card to rose.
As he saw the mood around vaelkar was different so he handed it to the closest person.
Vaelkar and rose went to the elevator and goes up to the upper ground.
Meanwhile kairo was persistent that there's something wrong about that person.
"Since it was been confirmed that the person near rose wasn't allied to the one who ambushed you. The case will be dismissed" Loki said as he kept his distance to kairo.
"B-but major!!" Kairo uttered and was desperate.
"You're dismissed!!" Loki said.
————————
On the upper ground, Rose was surprised that vaelkar have a mana comparable to the Grand archmage a 7th circle.
"Hey, let's go shopping for a bit. I treat you to something more comfortable clothes than this old fashioned clothes of yours"
They get in the wrecked car, and went to the mall to buy some clothes for vaelkar.
"hmm, this doesn't looked good on you"
"…"
Inside the store they've been choosing which one was the best for vaelkar. However, all of them seemed suitable for him.
A footsteps heard from the dressing room, A black suit, black pants and a white dress inside with opened botton. The wind blew his hair the crimson eyes was seen staring at her.
Rose couldn't help but mesmerize with the fact that vaelkar was a handsome man.
"Hmm that's good" rose uttered while covering her face.
"let's go!! We will buy this clothes" rose said and walked to the cashier to buy the clothes.
Vaelkar noticed her faced was red and his temperature rose up. He was clueless about the situation.
Time flies and they're both walking in the city the sun started to diminished, vaelkar told her that he got an hunter license that he just got yesterday. However, the S-ranked hunter license will take a few days to process.
She also informed vaelkar that being a hunter won't be easy, That life will flashed before your death arrived. She also told the origin of the otherworldly beings when they first arrived.
"also… The gate ranked was divided into S, A, B, C, D, E and F is the lowest grade of them all. However, the monster inside was much stronger than the average person"
"Also S wasn't considered the strongest there's even higher ranked like SS, SSS or maybe beyond… although the institute was still looking for the possibility of it. In this world there's nothing impossible anymore"
"So if you were ever encountered something beyond your own strength, please… save yourself and survive"
Rose said this emotionally while gripping the corner of his suit and hanging her head.
/Thu-dump/
/Thu-dump/
/Thu-dump/
In the moment of silence, vaelkar's heart pumps for the first time. His heartbeat could be heard, from the past he occasionally pumps his heartbeat with his own will.
However, right now it pumped without his own will. He's resonating with her and could feel her pain and worry.
"W-What's wrong with me" He said while grasping his chest.
"My heart pumps as if I'm alive"
Rose looked up to vaelkar and he saw him blushing. Rose laughed.
"Hey!! what are you laughing about? did you do this to me? huhh you little bratt!!" He's blushing was so obvious and embarrassed at the same time.
"W-What the hell could I do to you? An S-ranked like you and you're accusing me with something I didn't do" Rose uttered.
The starry skies could be seen they forgot the time.
She asked if vaelkar have any rooms to stay as if she feels responsible for vaelkar. He said that the world is his place so why bother to choose.
/thud/
A fistful went flying into vaelkar head.
Rose added that he will be going home with her for today's onward.
"My home is you home. So let's go to our home!!"
They went back to where they left the car in the mall and directly goes into the apartment building of rose.
They went inside her apartment room and vaelkar was only staring at the blank space while setting at the door.
A couple of hours passed.
"So I'm going to share home with this rose?" The only thoughts that he had from the past hours.
Rose had been cooking and was preparing dinner. They ate a lot of food together.
