After spending a few hours walking, the young adventurers arrived at the town to which Zene guided them, this town had the name of "Neadest Town", once they arrived there, they managed to notice that they were in a celebration.
"What are you celebrating?" asked Lyn, to which Zene replied "When we murdered Deaby surely the magic of this guardian stopped having an effect in his head, when they felt this all the people took for granted that he was exterminated, they must feel happy about that – and in middle of all the celebration, Shiko from afar noticed Mirei was with a girl, Shiko told the others that she found him and they headed towards him.
-Shiko: Mirei! I was looking for you! Did you notice what happened in the city?
-Mirei: Shiko! Were you responsible for defeating that guardian? Excuse me if I didn't help you, I found this town and when I saw them all scared, I decided to stand guard.
-Zene: Well, it's justified.
"Who is the girl?" asked Shiko referring to the woman Mirei was with, to which she introduced herself in the politest way "My name is Kirei Meni, but you can call me by my name, nice to meet you all" after introducing herself, everyone else introduced themselves formally.
-Mirei: Hahaha! Shiko, I always wanted you to meet her, in a casual way just like I found you, I found her. The girl you just met is my girlfriend!
"Your girlfriend!?" Shiko exclaimed, very surprised at the revelation.
-Meni: So, you're Mirei's little brother, you're very much like him.
Asuka turned to Lyn and Zene and secretly said to them, "Am I the only one who notices that they push us aside when they talk?" to which the other two boys answered with a "yes."
-Meni: I was very scared when I came to this place, with all this that is happening, I chose what came to my mind and became a sniper.
-Shiko: I see, I guess meeting Mirei gave you a lot of relief.
-Mirei: It turns out that Meni appeared in the same place as me, but she didn't move, so we couldn't meet.
-Meni: When I decided to move, the guardian who must have received me had already left the place.
-Shiko: Now that I think about it, haven't you decided to look for traces of him, Mirei?
-Mirei: Doing so, it was that I ended up in this town, in fact I was very surprised to find Meni here, if I hadn't stayed to stand guard, I still wouldn't know that we are in the same world.
-Asuka: I wouldn't like to interrupt, but if there's a guardian out of control, I think we should follow up, leave your brother - sister in law - brother talk for another time.
-Mirei: The girl is right, some guys who thought they were adventurers when they were very novices went through an area that is south of here, how about we follow them? They may helpful.
-Shiko: I think it's fine, let's all go.
Without delaying any longer, the group of 3 boys and 3 girls left, in the middle of the road, Mirei asked Shiko what was the level that each of the team had – The bags of experience that Deaby left when he was defeated were bigger than those that Nancy left us so we managed to distribute it well, if I'm not mistaken, Asuka and I are level twenty-five, Lyn is level twenty and Zene, I have no idea- then Zene clarified "My current level is thirty" coming out of that doubt, Mirei clarified that her level was still ten and that unfortunately, Meni was level one. After walking for a while, the whole group came across a kind of camp like the one used by Shiko, Asuka, Lyn and Zene to spend the night, but this one seemed to have human belongings. Investigating, Lyn noticed tears in some blankets, and looked for more traces near the trees in the area, it was then that shocked she immediately called the rest of the group "Come and see this!" she shouted, making everyone else go to her immediately, when they arrived at the place, everyone was scared without being able to move, they found corpses that seemed to be from the group of adventurers who owned the camp.
-Shiko: N-No, it can't be... they have been killed, all of them... Those wounds were made with that kind of sword used by knights in medieval times.
-Asuka: If they have been murdered... Why have their bodies not disappeared?
-Mirei: They were young... They could be rookies, but they didn't deserve to be killed that way...
-T-They died... we are next, we will surely die just like them" were the words that came out of Meni's mouth, she is crying inconsolably for fear that what they were witnessing would happen to them, Mirei full of fury and concern, hugged Meni "Don't worry, we have come to this world to prevent this type of tragedy from continuing to happen" he said while frowning his face more.
Suddenly, behind the group that was frightened and could barely assimilate what they had seen, a medieval armor appeared, it seemed to be made of pure iron, very shiny with a height of two and a half meters and a knight's sword. When everyone turned around, she said to them, "I didn't think I had left any survivors, none of those boys had the orb so they were useless and I murdered them. – Do you have it? the group of young people except for Mirei, confused and furious asked - What orb are you talking about? What are you?" to which Mirei replied "This is the guardian we were looking for, who left the temple in which I appeared when I arrived in this world" saying these words, they all prepared to fight to which the guardian said to them "My name is Gentile Knight! Excuse my rudeness for not showing up and for having to leave, my annoyances detector has gone off and I have to get out of here!" to which the guardian disappeared with the flash of transportation.
-Mirei: This time I'm going to kill him at once! I won't let it slip away again!
-Shiko: Don't go chasing him like an idiot, let's think of a plan first! I know you're very angry about what we've just seen, and you may feel like it's your fault, but we need to be calm first.
-Mirei: Do you want me to stay calm!? Maybe that monster has gone somewhere else where he's going to murder more innocent people! I don't intend to stay calm and only thinking this time!
-Shiko: Are you aware of the reckless act you are about to commit? You can fail! And if you do, not only will you die, but there will be no result and that guardian will continue to murder people, you will only join his victims!
-Mirei: You're always thinking I'm weaker than you, aren't you? To get that damn idea out of your head I'm going to go after him, I'll make you retract that way of thinking about me!
Without letting Shiko answer, Mirei used the flash of transportation to leave, leaving Meni with the rest of the group.
-Meni: Mirei... Why has he suddenly taken that attitude?
-Shiko: That asshole... always throwing his tantrums.
-Lyn: Shiko, as far as I remember you have always had a very healthy relationship with him. What did he mean when he said that you have always seen him as someone weaker than you if he is your older brother?
-Shiko: Mirei has always been an easy person to make angry or get carried away by his impulses regardless of the consequences, since he is two years older than me, whenever I enter a school I have had to see him as my superior, but he always used to get into trouble easily no matter that the person he fought with even if it was stronger than him, on multiple occasions I had to defend it by apologizing to the other person or saying things to prevent problems from escalating, while I have always thought about solving problems peacefully, calmly or letting them pass, Mirei has always been one of those people who believes that they are solved in the most abrupt way, be it with revenge, coming to blows or things like that. Until one day, after preventing a fight that he started with a much stronger guy from going further, he told me that he was envious of me, that I was always managing to face problems and solve the bad decisions I made, that he felt inferior to me.
-Asuka: And you didn't think about telling him to change his way of seeing things?
-Shiko: I was afraid that he would reject my advice...
-Asuka: Well... I think that if you should have told him, being a person who is spiteful and explodes very easily will always cause problems, like the one we are currently facing.
-Meni: He never told me anything like that... In fact, I never thought he was a person like that, he always shows a big smile and usually comforts me since I am a very fearful person...
Lyn, hearing these words coming out of Meni, gave her a hug – Don't worry girl, she has no idea where that old armor went, therefore it will be circling around a large area, while that happens his head will get cold and she will be able to think things through – then they all decided to go back to the village where they met Mirei.
The hours passed, in all that time Mirei had been transported to a village through which he had passed by chance before "Neadest town", in which, he found such a village destroyed, with corpses all over the place, in the distance he found the guardian, he was furious and quickly run into him, this upon noticing Mirei's presence, he turned to look at him.
-Gentile: Do you know anything curious about our world? When a being dies, we disappear between a golden light for those who ascend and black for those who descend... But the beings I kill don't go anywhere thanks to a curse that my sword has, it allows their souls to be locked in their bodies, even if they are dead, the souls remain there as if they were in a prison, it is the punishment I give them for not giving me what I want.
-Mirei: I'm going to rid you of the power of that black magic once and for all!
-Gentile: You managed to find me very quickly, do you have it?
-Mirei: I have no idea what you're looking for! But I'm going to end with you here and now!
-Gentile: Oops! That annoying presence is coming again, I'm sorry to have to say goodbye to you, little one, but I must go.
With that, Gentile Knight was once again transported to an unknown place, at which point the flash ended, in front of Mirei appeared a bestia, una A kind of combination between a tiger and a fox, the latter having two yellow tails and a very beautiful mane, black stripes all over his body and his fur being orange – Are you chasing Gentile too? I know where he has gone, if you want to stop him next to me, get on my back and hold on tight- said this strange beast to Mirei, and despite not knowing it, he did not hesitate to accept the offer of the beast, thus getting on it and leaving together to follow Gentile...
