Indeed, they became adventuring as a means of survival, so they could lead a better life in this world.

At this thought, Celia looked back and realized she had changed a lot.

Perhaps it was because everything had gone too smoothly for them that she had lost much of her sense of danger.

Even though their strength was clearly not at the level where they could be completely at ease.

“Come to think of it, given our present situation, it does seem like there’s no need for us to keep adventuring.”

After this incident, Celia was inclined to find a safer career.

With this in mind, Celia asked George,

“Any good ideas George?”

George was played with Siluca with his fingers as he responded,

“Nope. I’d just take it one step at a time. This sort of thing is still your forte Celia. As you know, I only pay attention to what’s in front of me. I never think about the future.”

Ever since he started living with Celia, George had left most of the decision-making to her.

He trusted that things would turn out fine if he left it to Celia.

So, gradually, in some ways, George had given up on thinking. He was more inclined to follow Celia’s orders and be responsible for the doing.

Of course, that didn’t mean George had no thoughts at all.

Many solutions appeared in George’s mind when he heard Celia’s question.

However, George didn’t mention any of them.

This was a habit that George had developed a long time ago.

Even if he had a solution, he wouldn’t say it. This was both his way of being considerate of Celia, as well as his way of training her.

“Come on, we can think about this at a later date. Even if you wanted to change jobs, there’s no rush,”

George said calmly.

“Although being an adventurer is a high-risk profession, it also pays well. There is no need to give it up.”

“That’s true. We can figure out something that makes money on both ends.

“For example, how about tutoring? Didn’t we rescue a few nobles before?”

“Are we going to become tutors for their children? We’re not qualified enough. That, and age is also a problem. As for expertise, you’ll probably be fine, but I’ll pass. My abilities can’t be taught to others.”

Being a teacher was indeed a viable profession, but it wasn’t suitable for the two of them at the moment.

Age aside, even if the nobles accepted George as a tutor, he had no idea what to teach.

His strength depended on his outstanding physique, as well as Noxkaius. Any adventurer with an average amount of experience under their belt could teach the techniques of adventuring better than he could.

As for Celia, it was a more viable option for her. The spell-casting techniques and experiences she had amassed over the years were all valuable things to share.

However, the problem was that Celia knew very few spells, and the few she knew were all low-levelled ones.

Technique and know-how for low-level spells were not something the nobles would be interested in.

On a whole, tutoring was a completely unfeasiblepath for both of them.

After being rebuked by George, Celia also came to the same conclusion.

Seeing that she was about to fall deep into thought again, George quickly interjected,

“We’ll think about it later. More importantly, maybe we should think about how to deal with these monsters.”

Celia raised her head and only then did she notice that they were surrounded by monsters that were staring them down with red pupils.

These monsters were not high-leveled and possessed only one attribute and had few forms of attack.

Under normal circumstances, there was no threat to George.

However, it was clear that this was not ‘normal circumstances’.

“Why didn’t I sense anything? What’s going on with these monsters?”

Magic power burst forth from Celia’s fingertips, and layers of barrier quickly shielded them.

Celia looked at the monsters in confusion. When she turned around and saw Siluca, her confusion grew further.

The general rank of monsters in this area were not high.

Usually, these sort of lower-rank monsters would choose to escape immediately should they sense the presence of a monster of a higher order. Even if the monster of a higher ranking was actually weaker than them.

However, in the face of Siluca’s dragon’s might, these monsters displayed no intention to retreat whatsoever. They merely exercised greater caution.

“Be careful. These monsters have probably been bewitched by the apostle and have gone berserk, making them immune to mental attack on some level. In this state, monsters lose their sense of fear and become deranged.”

Dionmya’s piped up just in time to answer Celia’s questions.

While she was explaining, a few burly gorillas had begun charging towards them.

“I’ll leave Siluca to you. I’ll deal with them quickly.”

George moved Siluca from his shoulder into Celia’s arms.

“Rawr rawr!” Siluca shouted unhappily, as if saying it wanted to fight too.

However, George immediately rejected her request.

“There’s no need for you to fight right now. Just stand aside and watch.”

Rawr!

“Objection overruled.”

With that said, George picked up Noxkaius and turned to look at Siluca.

“There won’t be a chance for you to do anything anyways.”

Buzz!

George raised Noxkaius high into the air, and a halo of light burst forth from within, transforming into an energy wave that spread outwards.

The red-eyed gorillas that were approaching at a high speed were sent flying the moment they touched the halo.

Under the illumination of this light, the red-eyed gorilla dissipated like particles of sand and disappeared into thin air.

Seeing George’s attack, the scene of Siluca’s birth appeared in Celia’s mind.

“This is… the shock wave from that time.”

“That’s right, George has always been like this. He always picked things up the fastest. No matter how hard I try, all I can do is try to keep up with him.”

Evidently, the scene before her left a huge impact on Celia.

While Celia was wallowing in self-pity, George had finished off all the monsters and beasts around them.

“Celia, why don’t we have another meal before we head back?”

Hearing George’s words, Celia raised her head in surprise. Seeing that George had already started to prepare the bodies of the monsters and beasts, she immediately started laughing.

“Okay.”

Hearing her energetic laughter, George, who was dealing with the corpses, smiled.

There were some things he just wasn’t able to communicate to her with words. All he could do was to use his actions to prove how much he relied on her.

To convey how much he needed her, and how she wasn’t as useless as she thought she was.

After all, deep down, Celia was very sensitive and had a strong inferiority complex.

Underground World

“How persistent. There’s no end to these monsters.”

The Black Knight looked at the monsters surrounding her, seemingly displeased.

Behind her stood countless demonic creatures with crimson eyes. They had all become her slaves.

“Go! Kill them all!”

At her command, a battle of epic proportions broke out.

Boom!
