(EP-89.2) Club #8
089 – Adventure Club #8
With the priestess and barbarian gone, the only one left was the panting man. He shook his head under his robe and said.
“Were you surprised? I apologize on behalf of my party members. Everyone just arrived at Ark so they’re still adjusting.”
“I see. It’s fine, nothing big happened.”
I answered appropriately. But this was just a facade and I was actually going crazy with curiosity.
Who and what was this guy doing in the main character’s party?
I could remember almost all of the information about Villain Hunter.
So I was confident in making sure I wouldn’t get involved with them to avoid a bad ending.
In other words, not accumulating evil deeds.
Because that was the best way to deal with it.
After all, if you accumulated s¡ns, you would become a bigger villain, and if you became a bigger villain, you would be hunted down by experience-seekers.
I was able to avoid the Hunter just now. That meant I was not yet villainous enough to be his mark.
However, this Pathfinder was a huge anomaly to me.
What the heIǀ was he doing here? The Villain Hunter Party seemed to have changed along with the twist in the story....
I was dying to know.
So, I decided to approach it from my side first.
“You seem to be with strange and strong people. Well, I don’t know if we’ll meet again but my name is Theo Gospel. You are...?”
“Theo Gospel....”
“Yes. That is my name.”
“Fuhuhuhu-.”
The man chuckled under his hood after hearing my name. I tried wrapping my head around why.
But he promptly apologized, waving his hand from side to side.
“Ah, I’m sorry. It’s just that you look very different from what I’ve heard. They say that Theo Gospel, the Demon Monk of Angmar, is a two meter long ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) monster with eight arms and eight legs.”
“That is what everyone says.”
“Yeah, it’s very different from the rumors. But are you really that Theo Gospel; the Queen’s Secret Concubine, the Gardener of Angmar, the Liberator of Slaves?”
I nodded at the man’s question.
“That’s right. Well, things are a little different from the rumors. So what’s your name?”
“You can just call me Guide. I am a nobody without a name. Anyways, I have to catch up with my comrades. See you-.”
The man quickly turned around, right after knowing my name. Wasn’t it common courtesy to introduce yourself back? What was with this ‘a nobody without a name’ nonsense!?
Thus, I decided to activate《Farsight》.
However, just as I opened my eyes...
Udduk-.
The man suddenly stopped walking and turned his head towards me, which broke my concentration.
“And oh, Sir Gospel. There are some things in the world that you should best pretend to not see anything.”
“......?”
“Please keep our meeting a secret. We are not supposed to be here yet.”
Paseuseuk-.
With those words, the man completely disappeared...

I drew the dagger from my waist.
This dagger was a gift from Aira. Using it to cut the cocoon, I saw a blue Marmar inside.
“Haaaa, I thought I was going to die.”
