Util, Nixxin, Drei, and Aeolous are standing at the counter waiting; they're quiet. Util almost fell asleep, then they heard the sound of a bell. Util stood up while Aeolous received 4 cards: "Guys, this is our hero card."
Nixxin looks at his card. "I'm only tier 3+?"
Aeolous looks at his. "Mine is 4; our tier rank is pretty close?"
Util looks disappointed. "I... only got tier 3."
Drei stands up and receives the card from Aeolous. "Mine... is also 3?"
Aeolous laughs, "Looks like I'm the strongest in here."
Util's eyes narrow and look at Aeolous. "And yeah, we will beat the shit out of you."
Then they walk out. While walking, Nixxin looks at them behind. "Guys, are we leaving the cemetery garden?"
Drei looks at him. "Of course not, we will lose a place to stay."
Then they go to the shop of the kid. Aeolous calls the kid out, "Yo... kid, we want to order."
The kid didn't hear him because he was distracted by the news, then they got distracted by news about Skyline. "Actually, I really don't believe that I killed that demon or Dia—that's his name, well... It's because when I was using my light beam, I saw a piece of the Dyson sphere get destroyed, then I saw a man in a robe. I can't see the face, and even if I use my tech, my record can't reveal the men."
Nixxin got confused by what he heard. "Isn't the body already found?"
Drei looks at the sky. "Yeah, but I was just wondering what tier that demon has; he seems strong."
Util sat down beside Drei and looked at a device. "Skyline was said to be 9.67, while that demon is 9.6."
Drei looks at Util. "They only have a 0.07 difference?"
Util stands up. "Skyline only has 42 gears, and 3 of them only have the light beam, and he uses all of them, and his last gear is almost destroyed. Of course they're close; that demon is pretty strong, you know."
Aeolous looks at Util. "If you guys become stronger, what tier do you guys think you will reach?"
Nixxin looks at him. "Maybe I'm going to be a 6 or 8 tier."
Drei looks at Nixxin. "I wish I could enter celestial ranking, although I think I will only reach 7."
Util sat down again. "Did you guys know there's a 9-year-old whose tier is 9.46?" The three of them look at Util in shock. Util continues, "That's true, man. That guy is 7 years younger than me, but he is actually an S-rank dungeon hunter. His power is something called 'weapon summoning.' I envy him. I wish I could create stronger weapons."
Nixxin sits beside Drei. "Do you know anything about Lira?"
Drei looks at him suspiciously, "Yeah... He is girlfriend of Onoe. Didn't you already know that?"
Nixxin holds his cheeks. "I want to know when they became lovers."
Drei looks at the roads. "It's last year. Lira, my girlfriend, and Onoe have been friends since 7th grade. We're always top students. They got to each other last year in 9th grade. We four actually planned to be classmates from 7th grade to last year's college."
Nixxin looks at the kid cooking. "I didn't know that; you really are a genius, man."
Drei looks at him. "Shit, man, are you gay?"
Nixxin raises his middle finger at Drei. "Fuck off, Johan."
Then Aeolous brought the food to the table. Util grabbed a chopstick. "When do we start our duty?"
Aeolous eats a hot meal with his hand; while chewing, he asks Util, "Are you... really okay with us having duty... You're from a rich clan after all."
Util dipped the beef meat in the sauce. "Don't worry, I am quite good at firing guns."
Nixxin looks at him. "Then why did you not use it on the scrim?"
Util eats the meat, "Because I want to master that magical blade."
After eating, they finished some low-tier missions and collected money from the cashier. Nixxin folds the money in his pocket and asks, "What are you guys planning on doing with your money?"
Util walks inside a rune shop, and the three of them wait for him. When he steps out of the shop, Drei asks him, "What did you buy?"
Util looks at a gemstone with a sign inside, "The lady says that this applies an explosion to a bullet when put in a gun."
Nixxin looks at it. "Holy... That's op," then they run to catch up to Aeolous.
Util walks outside the library while others are sleeping. While walking, he looks at the sky and thinks, Wait, isn't it better if I just put this run on a dagger for close combat and I use my gun when it's far? That's right, Util heads inside the library and takes the rose dagger that was used as a key. Then he cuts his hand with the blade. The blood floats and covers the rune and dagger. After a minute of focusing on the dagger, the two separated blood approaches each other. The rose blade absorbs the rune, and it explodes, sending Util flying, and everyone wakes up. "What the hell is that?" "Hey Aeolous, open the light." Aeolous opened the light.They saw blood near the flowered book and the rose blade, the rose blade floating, absorbing the blood scattered in a spiral rotation, and sending it away, the books and shelves starting to get red.
Then Util looks at it. "Looks like I got lucky at that rune." Everyone is shocked by what happened.Util picks up the blade; the blood rotates in his hand like an octopus.
Nixxin asks him, "How will you use that?"
The utensil holds the blade of the knife; he slices his arm, and the blood flows outside his body and recreates a shield. When the shield touches the blade, it explodes so strong the shield goes flying outside.
