"Is this for real?" "...Yes." Although there was a short pause, the high demon gave her affirmation, making Eliza question why someone with this kind of skill even needed a 'Level'. "He still does. This skill does make it so that the richer he is, the stronger he becomes, but there needs to be a basis for that strength. The increase in power he gains because of this skill scales according to what he originally has. This just makes it so that he can easily battle people higher than his level with…-

"The Knight Captain did note that Terence had a crest on the back of his palm that glowed multiple times mid-fight, one that looks similar to the crest on you two's hands." Before she could even say anything more, Evan sighed and held up his hand, facing the back of his palm towards her and summoning Vanitas. The crest glowed and the sword of pride appeared in his palm, causing the knight beside Leena to quickly unsheathe her blade and hold it up. "Nice reaction but if I wanted to kill you, you'd…

"On to more important things, have you ladies heard about the new Dress shop that opened up in the noble's district?" "Ah. The one owned by that Merchant group, right?" "Yes. I dropped by a few days ago. Their prices were very high." As the young ladies jumped onto the new topic that Laurene had brought up, Suzanne tapped the arm of the princess seated beside her and passed over a sealed envelope. "From Sir Eris." Hearing this, a look of surprise flashed across Laurene's eyes. This then quickly…

Chapter 240 – Suzanne and Laurene "Since Greed's contractor can use his Idiosyncrasy, doesn't that mean that I should be able to use yours?" "..." "..." The two stared at each other in silence for a full minute before Pride finally sighed in exasperation as she replied. "Yes, you should. However, you need my permission to do that. This is a 50/50 contract after all." After saying that, she returned to where Eliza and the others were, leaving behind the young hero who shrugged his shoulders and…

"No stress. We also have our own reasons for joining in." "Nevertheless, it does not change the fact that you helped us avert a disaster." It took Evan a minute to prevent the poor knight from kowtowing on the ground to express his thanks, making the hero feel more exhausted than he did fighting the Warhammer-wielding woman, mentally, that is. "May I know the name of our benefactors?" Hearing the man ask for their names, Evan did his usual job of introducing the members of the group one by one while…

"This woman seems to be a favoured thrall of you brother, given that he allowed her to use enough power to take her strength stat to 'B'. If any of her blows gets to us, it's game over." He then sent a message to Kayla, telling her to keep the bandit leader she was beating the hell out of alive before turning to back to the Warhammer-wielding woman who was dashing towards the pillar of ice they were standing on. "We can find out about why your brother's thralls were targeting the daughter of Osto's…

'Hey, Pride. The thralls are this brown-haired dude and that Warhammer woman you're fighting, right?' [Yes. She has a bit more of his power than he usually gives his thralls so I just wanted to see if there was anything special about her.] Pride replied to Evan's message via their connection, causing the young hero to narrow his eyes as he stared at the man who was gazing at him warily. 'So, I'm guessing the reason Greed's Idiosyncrasy isn't working on me is because of my contract with you,…

"Guh!" The woman let out a short grunt as her vision began spinning, however, her instincts warned her of impending death and she rose her war hammer and swung it in the opposite direction. A beat later, vanitas came slashing down, colliding with her Warhammer as the flames spread out and burned her arm. Evan then took the chance to pull the knight to the ground to safety, tossing him beside the noble's daughter and her maid. As for the rest of the knights, they took action the instant that their lady…

"Oh, this is quite the situation I have run into." Expressions of shock surfaced on the faces of both the bandits and the knights as neither side had felt any presence until the voice rang out, with both sides reflexively turning in the direction of the speaker. They were met with the sight of a young boy who looked about fifteen or sixteen years of age, dressed in a plain brown shirt and a pair of simple black jeans with similarly coloured boots. He had a surprised expression on his face as he saw the…

"Rock, paper, scissors!" It was a short battle that ended in Eliza's overwhelming victory as she held up her index and middle fingers while laughing at Evan who had his palm spread open. "Since the two of you are done with your bullshit, can we get going?" Pride, who was already walking into the forest called out to them, causing Eliza to hurriedly follow with Evan slowly dragging behind. "Why would you of all people want to deal with matters concerning totally unrelated people?" To the question Evan…
