Chapter 711: A Hero Who Doesn't Like Me

I was talking to Darcia and Bianca when he walked through the door, I noticed his eyes were glued to me before the door opened, Allan still seemed to have some grudge against me.

His eyes were full of suspicion looking at me with a slight hostility, I also noticed that his Aura was much stronger than before, his strength could even be a little higher than mine, at least that's what I thought since his Aura was quite strong, the effect of his Aura seems to be one of retribution, which makes sense for the Hero of the God of Justice.

"Nice to see you again Zenos, Vanessa, and Lilian." (Allan)

I didn't know he knew Lilian.

"Nice to meet you again..." (Vanessa)

"Let's stop the falsehoods, please." (I)

I stopped Vanessa from saying hello to Allan, I could see from his eyes that he's disgusted to meet me again, so there's no need to keep a facade, I've always hated falsehoods, and I don't need to hide what I feel from others and I don't like being done to me.

"I know Bianca is wary of me, but at least her opinion is neutral with no hostility towards me." (I)

"Darcia likes me because of her personal tastes and demonstrates this with fervor by being honest with how she feels." (I)

"So please don't be fake in front of me, her eyes show that she doesn't like me, so act the way you want, I hate fake." (I)

"Says the Vampire who threatened to start a massacre in the village of Elves and then defend the same place from the Annual Monster Wave." (Allan)

"See? Don't you feel better about being honest?" (I)

"Sorry about my Dad, he prefers people to talk to him honestly even when they don't like him." (Vanessa)

"That's an interesting way to treat other people." (Bianca)

"I like that, it makes everything simpler." (Diana)

"..." (Allan)

"We may not be friends, but we're not enemies either, so how about some conversation? But if you want we can leave too." (I)

"..." (Allan)

Allan exchanges a look with the two girls in his group without moving from the door, it seems that they are communicating just by looking, it seems that they have been together long enough to understand each other like this.

"A conversation never hurt anyone." (Allan)

"Good thing, because it would be you guys going out, I heard they have a really good Alcoholic soup here and I want to taste it, so I'm not going out..." (I)

"Father! It was you who invited them." (Vanessa)

"Yes, so if they don't want to talk, they're the ones who have to leave, I want to eat that soup that Diana said was really good." (I)

"I've had this soup before, it's really good, they have 3 different types of soup." (Lilian)

"One based on seafood, one based on monster meat, and the last one based on plants." (Lilian)

"I'll order all three." (I)

"I'll have the meat one, anything that has meat must be good." (Darcia)

"The vegetable one must be good..." (Vanessa)

"I'll go get the waiter, he's taking too long." (Lilian)

"..." (Allan/Bianca)

While Lilian gets up to fetch the waiter, Allan approaches to sit next to Bianca.

----------

As we all ate some delicious soups and started talking, I noticed that Allan was trying to ask questions about things we've been doing on this continent, he was trying to embrace information from us, but I didn't care.

I started talking about the tourist places I went through, but I strayed from the topics about the things I did.

Bianca, in turn, wanted to know more about the cultural aspects of this continent we passed through, who mainly answered that was Lilian, being the only one who lived centuries on this continent.

After the food was over, I was satisfied, the food was amazing, and I have to talk to Freya to get the recipe later.

"As I said before, we are in this city for fun." (I)

"We've only been in this city for a short time and we know how dark the waters here are at the bottom, do you really think that talking about being here for fun is going to fool us?" (Allan)

"Allan, he doesn't need to deceive us, even if his explanation is strange." (Bianca)

"Everything my Dad does is always weird, but he's telling the truth, we even created a friendly competition between friends." (Vanessa)

"There will also be an Auction if you feel invited to participate." (Lilian)

"We won't be able to attend, we have an important meeting on the day." (Allan)

"That's a shame, there will be a magic sword with the ability to cut spectral enemies and 2 potions that cause skin rejuvenation." (I)

"We're going to participate!" (Darcia/Bianca)

"No, we'll be busy..." (Allan)

"WE WILL BE THERE!!!" (Darcia/Bianca)

"..." (Allan)

With that I just got the Hero's group to participate in the Auction, I'm sure they must have a lot of money, so I hope it soap plus the value of the items.

----------

The conversation continued for a few hours, Allan doesn't like me but that doesn't matter, he is still very naive thinking that the world should be a fair place, even Bianca who is a Priestess of the God of Justice knows that the world will never be completely fair.

The same way they asked a lot of questions for us, I also asked a lot of questions for them, I wanted to know the real reason they are on this continent, but none of them spoke, they always escape the answer by diverting the subject.

After they left I left the restaurant and walked to the candy store again.

"They're hiding something." (Lilian)

"We realized that they kept dodging the question the whole time." (Vanessa)

"Because they know about Nix, I don't know if they know much about her, but they should be suspicious enough to avoid lying when the omission already does the job." (I)

"Aren't you curious about what they're doing here?" (Vanessa)

"No, he's a Hero, I'm sure he's doing Hero stuff with his group, I don't want to get close to all that." (I)

"Let's focus on what we have to do and get out of this continent, having a Hero here for unknown reasons could be a bad sign." (I)

"Then why did you invite them to the Auction?" (Lilian)

"Because money is not to blame." (I)

------------

Pov Allan (Hero of the God of Justice):

After we leave the restaurant we go to the Assassins' Guild to get the information we need while we chat along the way.

"Why do you still hold a grudge against him?" (Bianca)

"That Vampire can't be trusted, I can feel in his Aura the judgment and condemnation that shouldn't be with someone so unbalanced." (I)

"His mind works strangely, he acts lightly and says what he thinks best, he doesn't care about laws or rules when they are not useful to him." (I)

"You're just jealous that he's prettier than you are." (Darcia)

"He may be prettier, but he's crazy, someone who resorts to slaughter so fast is beside himself." (I)

"He might be weird, but you're just looking for faults." (Bianca)

"You're supposed to be on my side, so why do you want to go to this auction?" (I)

"Do you know how horrible it was to enter that cursed Dungeon? There were so many specters immune to physical attacks, I've been looking for a good sword for a long time to fight these types of enemies." (Darcia)

"I can get you Darcia, but seriously Bianca? Aesthetic potions?" (I)

"Shut up, what will a man understand about a woman's concerns?" (Bianca)

"Since we left the Morror Continent, the salt of the sea and the various places we've been through that we've had to fight have destroyed my skin." (Bianca)

"Local products are unsuitable for me as a Human, they were produced exclusively for Demons." (Bianca)

"But it could wait until after the mission..." (I)

"We're going to this auction with or without you, so stop trying to convince me otherwise." (Bianca)

We arrived at the meeting point near the Assassin's Guild, after getting the information we needed, we headed back to the rented house where we've been.

Let's go to the room where I pull out the sound barrier item, I can't feel anyone spying on this place, but I prefer to be cautious.

"How was your part of the mansion?" (I)

"We took the item from the Black Market, I don't like to go there." (Bianca)

"We didn't have a choice, a crystal containing the blessings of a ruler of the Elves next to the World Tree, this kind of item is not easy to find even on our continent." (Darcia)

"Do we know how to activate this thing?" (I)

"I know, it's going to be a little bad for me, but if it gets worse at least we'll be prepared." (Bianca)

"I also have news, the mission target is close to making his move." (I)

"I still think we better get him now, the longer you wait, the more dangerous it will be for this town." (Bianca)

"We can't, there's a good chance he won't be responsible for more than all the evidence points to him." (I)

"He doesn't demonstrate the appropriate level of intelligence for this type of project, so he must be being manipulated by someone." (I)

"I don't like it..." (Darcia)

I know how they feel, but we have to be careful, capturing the puppet doesn't help when we still haven't figured out who pulls the strings.
