Disciple of Immortal

The other side of Polorock… The Dark Ward.

A certain building located deep inside that area was the base of one of the crime organizations, the 《Bloody Gold Coin》.

The main job of the 《Bloody Gold Coin》 was to do the dirty job of the wealthy merchant.

Threat, abduction, assassination, disturbance, and many other dirty jobs.

Their leader, Mardas was a former S-rank adventurer who got demoted to A-rank.

He had been taking assassination commissions from the big shots ever since his adventurer era but, his shady job eventually came to light and he got chased out from the front stage.

He had long blonde hair and fought with a great sword.

His epithet was 《Lauhing Guillotine, Mardas》 from the fact that he swung his sword around during the battle.

… And that 《Bloody Gold Coin》 was driven on the verge of destruction.

The wall and the floor were torn and dug as if a giant monster descended in that place and carved with their claws, their members were rolling around, drenched in their own blood.

Mardas, their leader was falling on his knees with a dumbfounded face.

「What… In the world is happening here? The 《Bloody Gold Coin》… And this great Mardas… Got crushed by a mere brat?」

The moment Philia arrived at the base of the 《Bloody Gold Coin》, she realized that she had been tricked and tried to leave the place immediately.

The member of the 《Bloody Gold Coin》 tried to stop her alas, it was obvious that they were no match for Philia whose level was close to 3000, thus the result showed right before Mardas.

When Mardas rushed in front of Philia after looking at his subordinate who fell on their rear, the latter conjured a giant dragon's arm and mowed down everything around her, thus they arrived at the current situation.

The pair who kidnapped Philia could only hug each other and trembled in fear as they sat on the ground.

「W-What in the world… Are we brought back?」

「I-I'VE NEVER HEARD ABOUT THIS!」

Philia cast a glance toward them.

The duo was startled upon receiving their gaze.

「… So you really don't know Kanata's current situation right? Then Philia going to leave.」

Said Philia as she turned around to leave.

Mardas clenched his teeth, his hands were already touching the hilt of his great sword.

Surely, the girl could use strange magic that almost drove the 《Bloody Gold Coin》 to the verge of destruction.

and yet, the current here was clearly full of openings.

The moment she left this place alive, her comrade would definitely destroy and that would spell the end for the 《Bloody Gold Coin》.

Being looked down on by his peers, his subordinates left, and abandoned by his backer, the big shot of the Greed company.

That or they would send assassins to kill him.

Either way, Mardas' pride as the leader couldn't allow Philia to leave their base alive.

「Don't… Look down on me!」

Mardas rushed toward Philia, raising his great sword overhead.

Though the job he took from Wontz was kidnapping, he changed his mind and planned to kill the target.

Though his opponent looked like a small girl, he knew that he couldn't afford to hold back against her.

「YOU'LL TASTE THE REASON WHY THEY CALLED ME GUILLOTINE WITH YOUR OWN BODY!」

Mardas' great sword cut the neck of the girl who was full of openings… Or so it was supposed to be.

But, Philia turned around immediately and pinched the giant blade with her bare hand.

「H-How can it be? This must be… A dream…」

It was as if he… Didn't fight against a human.

The response he felt in his hands felt as if he attacked a lump of adamantine, or a giant dragon.

Mardas guessed that the little girl before him might get some sort of strange power.

But, at this point, only at this point did he realize that the girl before him was actually an unfathomable monster.

Philia sized the sword and threw it behind.

The greatsword was easily taken away fromMardas' hands, flew in a straight line toward the wall, and broke the wall with a thud.

Mardas' eyes twitched as he looked at the collapsed wall.

「Do you still have business with Philia, uncle?」

The sunlight enters the building from the collapsed wall.

It was illuminating Philia's back.

Due to the power that she displayed a while ago, and the sun illuminating her figure from behind, Philia looks like a gargantuan creature in Mardas' eyes.

「N-No…」

Mardas imposing attitude from a while ago went out of the window, he fell on his knees as he replied weakly.

「This great for me… N-No, I, I have no idea that such…! God, you must be a god! P-Please forgive this lowly man…!」

Mardas prostated on the ground.

「God…?」

Philia squinted her eyes, looking down at Mardas.

「Y-Yes! This was the first time I saw such a powerful existence! I might have been a foolish unbeliever from the moment I was born until now but, now I understand that God does exist! I repent for all the sins that I committed so far…! Please, please forgi—!」

The next moment, something that resembled the arm of a giant dragon struck at the place beside Mardas.

That arm carved a deep mark on the ground that speared around,

If that arm was off marked even by a millimeter, Mardas would surely be killed right then.

「HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!」

Mardas raised a scream as his body curled up in that place.

「Philia… Don't think that she ever called by that name but, Philia hates to be called by that name.」

Philia declared with a cold voice before she left that place.

No one in that place dares to stop her.

Meanwhile, Mardas didn't dare to raise his face, he kept curling up on that place.

―― Almost at the same time, two figures were visiting the base of 《Bloody Gold Coin》.

The man who led the way wore a black tailcoat and black hat, his elegant appearance stood out like a sore thumb in this back alley.

The man was the ruler of the city of Polorock, Greed.

「Even though Greed-sama can entrust the matter of contacting the crime organization to me, I still can't understand why you're insisting on coming by yourself. Moreover, should we put on some disguise?」

Greed's subordinate, Gain was calling out to his master.

「Gain-kun, why do I need to disguise myself when I just strolling in my own garden?」

「Because a lot of knightdom knights is sneaking into the city. And they're not doing an investigation either, they want to capture you, Greed-sama. If you meet them in this kind of situation…」

「Fufufu, I'm not afraid of the likes of kingdom knight. They're nothing more than a bunch of small fries who love to do street performance. The dangerous one is a troublesome individual.」

「Who… Are you talking about?」

「The above-mentioned girl of magic tool craftsman… I thought it was just some spark ignited by Wontz-kun but, a strange rumor arrived in my ears. I can't believe my ears at first but, I have to at least check the truth. Since Wontz-kun planned to use the weapon called the 《Bloody Gold Coin》, I want to ask the detail to them beforehand…」

Greed's footsteps suddenly halted right there.

Gain who wondering why he stopped followed his bos line of sight… And saw a little girl with bicolored hair of green and light pink standing before them.

「That appearance… Matched with the appearance of one of the magic tool craftsman's companions. Why she's alone by herself in this dark wa—」

Greed ignored Gain and walked slowly toward Philia… With a completely different expression on his face.

「This place is a bit too dangerous for you, young miss… What are you doing in this place? Uhm? Well, you can't walk by yourself in such a dangerous place you know.」

Greed spoke with sweetly, smiling a scary-looking smile as the tips of his lips went up.

「Greed… Sama?」

Gain was baffled upon seeing that kind of expression.
