At the same time where Danzel and Nersanrah went ahead to fight the flesh golem.

A particular duo arrived in the run-down village that had neither a name nor a good reputation.

One of the duos wore some long-sleeved clothing that to the other who saw the 2-meter tall figure almost got a heatstroke by imagining how the man wearing a weird hat and a silver mask covering his mouth would feel with such clothing.

But what got their attention first was the big sheath that the man carried.

`Is this guy an idiot?

`Can he even pull out his blade with its length?

Such things were being whispered about the outsider among the ones in the village.

With the man taking the spotlight though, they failed to miss the guys partner being a small girl wearing a white robe which also hid her face and her skin from all others' sight.

Seeing her height and how she was walking with full confidence, it would be pretty obvious that she was a kid.

As their clothing was so unique and the fact that they were outsiders brought lots of attention to them.

Even unwanted ones.

"Grandpa...why is everyone looking at us?" The small asked, her previous confidences going away as lots of strangers were looking at her.

Noticing her distress, the elderly with the weird hat and silver mask didnt even have to scan his surroundings in recognizing the gaze of those guys.

`Here too... The elderly called Agares frown.

"Lets go, Shiro, I heard that there is a good restaurant in the other part of this place. I bet you are hungry, right? Grandpa will be taking you there."

"Really! Yay!" The small girl yelled with a glim of happiness on her face.

Not even showing a shadow of a doubt that her almighty and goodwill Grandpa would ever lie to her.

With those two coming for the first time in this place, it didnt take a genius to see the elderly lie.

Gripping softly her hand, Agares together with Shiro turned into another street to avoid the gazes, but to his surprise, the ones that showed the most hostility in their eyes started to follow the duo.

Seeing that, his eyes turned cold.

Taking another route towards an alley with two walls of buildings to the left and right side.

But before long, Agares halted his steps.

"Reveal yourselfs"

His voice came out like a whisper that was spoken next through your ear, making the people hiding come out and block both sides of the road.

"Hehehe~Look at him guys, another big fish swept up right into us." One man carrying a bastard's sword in his shoulder said to the others behind him.

By the seer aura that he was releasing, Agares who could see one's aura was able to determine the man in the middle as their leader, as he was the strongest among them.

What else he could observe was the equipment that they were carrying was way above someone of their strength.

"Who send you here?" Agares said with a stone-cold voice towards them.

The answer that he got through felt...stupid.

"Send us here? Ha! You believing that you are a big shot or anything!? Let me tell you, the owner of those guys were similar bricks like you believing to be something special. Guys like you came right into our palms with that crazy magic casters latest recruitment post. Seriously, whoever that Death call or whatever his name has excited the explorers." The man with the bastard said arrogantly as he raised his bastards high to reveal its worth.

"Since such guys arent going to pass the recruitment anyway, we might as well harvest the loose ends, dont a agree?" He said with a sinister smile on his face.

As the kept bloodlust was continuously increasing by the second, Agares felt his sleeves be dragged lightly.

"Grandpa..." Shiro said with a cute yet worried voice.

Seeing his granddaughter, all the bloodlust was replaced with a radiant smile of a loving grandpa.

"Dont worry, Shiro. Grandpa would take care of those bad guys." Agares said while rubbing her head, carefully not to put away her hood.

"Heheh~" Shiro giggled from the gentle and caring touch of her grandpa.

"Now Shiro, close your eyes for grandpa, please. The next time you open them we will be in front of the restaurant I told you about."

"Mhhm!" Nodding her head, Shiro covers her eyes with two small pale white hands.

`Good... Agares nodded as he grimaced the moment he stared away from her granddaughter towards the ones responsible for their current situation.

Reaching out his hilt, the man with the face of the man holding a bastard sword got serious.

"Ha! You want to fight us!? We might have spared you and the girl if you have just given us your item, but-"

"Silence."

Agares commanded quietly, but his voice oozed out so much pressure and killing intent that the face of the people around them quickly started to turn to one of shock.

"You-!"

Before being able to finish what the man with the bastard sword was about to say.

Agares draw his curved sword out.

*Shhhhh~

It was as everything was playing in slow motion in the view of the thieves. And yet in just a split instant.

They lost track of the old man's sword.

Thats when they noticed that they couldn't feel any parts of their body at all, even their vision seemed to turn if not being split.

"Huh?"

Agares's sword was so fast that for a split second it broke the sound barrier and cut multiple times all around him, leaving only the air being cut and leaving the space where it was swung with a void that was later filled with the nearby air.

Even the strongest of them who had his gaze towards Agares was only capable to see multiple white clones cutting his subordinates at such speed that even he wasnt spared being cut into multiple pieces.

Only the sound of the falling body parts could be heard in the small alley.

Putting his curved sword back into his sheath.

`Mere fools. Agares scoffed internally as hugged Shiro and made her face his chest.

Although he showed things that he shouldnt at Shiro at such a young age, he still tried his best to spare her of such gruesome sight that was the result of his action.

"Lets go, Shiro." Agares said as disappeared from his location.

The last thought that he had was of something that the leader of those thieves said.

`It seems I finally find your traits.

*****

After a few hours, in the Sacred Treasury...

Danzel was channeling his mana into his palm.

"Now all you have to do is use your mana like how I explained you to activate the enchantment." Nersanrah said from the side with his hands crossed.

"Mhmm...I think I got it now." Danzel said.

Inputting his mana into the circular floor, the gem in the floor lighten up, and the circular floor that they both were standing at started to shake before slowly descending lower.

Seeing it work, Danzel stood up and nodded in himself as he looked at the cracked sword beside him.

"Hey, Nersan, can you make me another one?"

"..." Looking at the cracked sword, Nersanrah raised his hand to control and create sand around the sword.

Not much later, the sand went around his sword and repaired it to its peak performance that was a few hours ago.

The sole survivor of the flesh golems that first appeared, although it fought by its best of abilities. It ended in a devastating defeat from his side as he and Nersanrah practically broke and cut him into pieces with a little effort.

With Nersanrah supporting him from the side, practically creating a distraction, and him himself being a bit of a nuisance who needed constant attention because of his firepower, Danzel found it easy to finish a sole Flesh Golem in this situation.

After finishing that sole golem, they had easily a few more dozen to finish off in the lower platform that was practically built like a maze thanks to the nature of the circular platform (Elevator).

Of course, Both his and Nersanrah decided to be cleaver this time around from finishing those hybrids between a golem and an undead.

Instead of going into close combat, instead went around into finishing the flesh golem using a range instead of close quarter combat from the higher pathways. At he had to say that it worked like a charm.

With the platform blocking the [Disturbing Magic] Nersanrah was capable to finish them slowly but surely.

Well, almost finish them off as Danzel told Nersanrah t leave them half alive.

Nersanrah didnt like much that suggestion as it would waste more of their time, he did agree in the end as time was on their side.

It wasnt like there was some sort of timer for them to rush. And with Nersanrah having a body, his true body stopped breaking apart.

The reason why Danzel wanted to leave them half alive was obvious...

`I got enough Danzel thought internally as he watched his XP having already reached the required amount to get to Lv.100.

That was only possible because he was the one who killed almost every flesh golem till its last floor that they were descending at.

On his way here he also learned how to operate the circular platforms and make them float either back or down, effectively connecting them into a pathway. He simply had to ask for Nersanrah to explain to him how it works and after a few...tens of tries he got the hang of it.

As for the reason why he learn how to use them, he had his reasons.

Before long, the circular platform came into a sudden halt, but this time not in a platform.

"Welcome~"

But on the bottom of the floor itself.

"To the Treasuries Vault," Nersan'rah said.
