“Haaa… three Ents, Elio. THREE FUCKING ENTS!”

That’s all that he could endure before he genuinely started getting in her way.

“And that too after you fucked up with that first Ent!”

He couldn’t combine two of his fused spells during their fight with the first Ent either.

He just went ahead, blew the best strategic point up and was critically injured.

“You still finished it off though, so it’s-.”

“YOU ARE UNBELIEVABLE!”

If it wasn’t for Sera, Az and Miu who were nearby, she wouldn’t have been able to defeat that first Ent either.

“You never wanted me to kill them! That’s why you did it!”

“Of course I didn’t want to kill them. Just look at those ugly things, haha. How can we kill them?”

Defeating the first one was not easy but from the second one, she didn’t take the risk and included Miu and others into the fights as well.

Elio assisted her and the rest of them but he was still not being as helpful as he could have been had he been taking things seriously.

At one point, she got so frustrated she had to scold him and ask him to do proper work, and he did it.

He helped them so well they were able to take down their third Ent in only an hour.

But then, when they reached the fourth Ent, he couldn’t just continue helping her anymore and asked her if they could stop.

They had made significant progress in that dungeon and there was nothing left here that they could destroy either since they had reached the 55% destruction limit.

Going any further might complicate things, but according to her calculations, killing two more Ents wouldn’t cause any problem… but he did not want to do it, so he did everything he could to stop her from even attempting to take on that creature by herself.

“I knew it! I fucking knew it! You bastard!”

They were resting at another tree top now, since it was time for them to go out of this dungeon.

They had achieved their goals for coming here, they even obtained a Skill essence from one of the Ents.

“We could have finished Level-65 with this!”

“But we don’t have to rush things, Alex. We will get the dungeon clearing reward as well, you know? We might get enough Exp to complete the level.”

They were (Level-42) and (Level-39) when they came here so after killing those thousands of creatures, this kind of outcome was pretty good.

“But that would be an extra Exp addition, Elio! Why act like this when you know how much we will need the levels when we reach the city and meet the Viscount?!

Do you have any idea how the high society of this world works?!”

They were almost done with everything they wanted to do in this Town.

Alex got her item from the Archer hall master, Miss Rin had some idea what kind of path she wanted to walk on, Misha was now aware of the kind of dangers that they were going to face going forward, and Az was confirmed to have Elementalism affinity.

Elio was now able to cast new kinds of spells, Sera and Miu had leveled up so their powers had strengthened as well, and lastly, the Two of them were of a higher level now.

“You know most of my clients were affiliated with the high nobility of this game, right?”

He might not know about high society, the customs of this world, the things that they do, and the kind of etiquette various places follow, but he knew how all these things work.

“Besides, if we are talking about knowing about the high society and the people of authority, you know I know about that kind of stuff pretty well.”

His family might not be some conglomerate or something like that, but his grandfather had built something valuable that his father was maintaining much better than his father.

His mom had been a normal Lady, but she was talented… so much so that at one point in time, everyone interested in the Archery sport knew about her.

She was an amazing person in his eyes, but unlike his family members, he wasn’t interested in growing what was going to belong to him someday in the future.

He wanted something of his own. He wanted his freedom and he did not want to rely on the two of them…

That’s why he started by himself.

Worked, and worked, and worked until he achieved all that would make his life stable even in the future.

He had a capable elder sister to look after their family business, so he had no pressure from their side either.

They just wanted to see him being happy, and be with the person that he wanted to.

“Hmph.”

Even Alex couldn’t deny the fact that he was familiar with high society and the general things that go on in most of them at the very least.

“Anyway!”

At the moment, she was angry about how he didn’t help her with the fourth Ent, how he asked Sera, Az, and Miu to not help her either, and how he had that annoying smile on his face.

She did not like it…

“We could have obtained some more Exp! Why couldn’t you just help out WITHOUT experimenting with stupid things?!

I mean, it’s just an ugly Ent!”

“No, Alex.”

That’s where she was wrong.

“It’s The ugliest monster I’ve seen until now. That’s why I want to keep looking at that ugly thing.”

The thought ‘How can something be so ugly?’ was constantly revolving in his head.

He was thinking why it looked the way it did, why they perceived it as ‘ugliness’ and he even thought about the very concept of ugliness, correlating things that were just too far apart.

“You…” She looked at him with an annoyed expression. “You fucking piece of shit…” and then she cursed at him while slapping his face.

“You’re enjoying this… how dare you enjoy my misery you asshole! Is this all a joke to you?!”

She takes things too personally and seriously sometimes.

“Of course not. How can I take an amazing Game like this as a joke?”

After playing this game for so long, the lines between reality and this unique world had blurred for her.

She practically lives here nowadays… and, it wasn’t that good a thing sometimes.

“And how dare you hit me?”

He bit her hand since slapping her pretty cheeks in this setting would be inappropriate.

He did not want to start anything on a tree in a damn dungeon like this one… she wouldn’t mind, he knew those wild fantasies of hers, but not yet.

“Hey!!!”

She was so invested in this world that she was becoming detached with the real world.

“Oy… no. Hey! I’ll fall! Alex!”

He had only realized her unhealthy attachment to this world recently, and it wasn’t that good a thing for the life that they had in reality.

He did not want a special life just in this special world.

“You brought this upon yourself!”

He loved her too much to limit their bond just to one world…
