"This makes things a little better," I mumbled as I saw that quest in front of me. Things are certainly easier when you have a clear aim and a motivating reward at the end of the hard work.
It appeared at the right time as I was wondering what I should do and how I should play this whole thing. Not like I wasn't going to make an impact before, but with this… It is set in concrete.
"Adam?" Queina called out, but I just changed the topic, shifting my gaze to Alepsia.
"Is Ameliana okay?"
Ameliana was that girl who was involved in the Mirag City incident. The one who pretended to be a receptionist and was working directly under demigod Amir. Back then, I caught her and decided to not kill her before handing her over to Alepsia. The reason? She was going to be a saintess in the future.
Though given all the circumstances involving Alepsia and Valencia I kind of had to ask if she was okay. Because otherwise I must go back in time and protect her too. She was, after all, a crucial piece of all the plans that I am going to work with in the future.
"She is safe. We knew the circumstances were grave, so we used some special artifacts and asked her to hide until we both come back and meet her," Alepsia affirmed and I nodded at her.
At least that's one problem off my chest.
"Ameliana?" Asked Queina with her curiosity increased again and I sighed before explaining that too.
Hearing my words, Queina… She smiled from the start to the end, her eyes glittering at me as I told her how I repeated so many times while trying to minimize the damage. She was pretty much fascinated with the whole thing.
Alepsia, who didn't know the detailed story, was even more amazed at my tenacity as her eyes widened. She looked at me with even more admiration than before.
"To go that far… just why?" Alepsia asked while Quiena nodded at her question.
It was true that I could have just as easily left the city as it was, since there was nothing profitable for me. Except for that [Epic Quest!] that is. But in reality…
"I don't know. It just felt like… I could achieve the perfect ending… No. More like. I wanted to achieve that perfect ending at any cost. I wouldn't have felt right if I had left any loose ends," I smiled as I told them.
I was a gamer by heart. And a perfectionist by nature. I wanted to achieve something I thought was possible, and I could never ever be happy with any other achievements. It was the same for Ghost World, for what happened in Border Town. And it will be the same this time too.
If I can achieve everything to the last drop of perfection. I will do it. No matter how many times it takes, no matter what I had to do… I will do it. There never was any other option.
"Such a saint…" Alepsia mumbled as she looked at me, probably misunderstanding my words, and I just observed her with a smile, not correcting her misunderstanding.
"Why can't all fate weavers be like you?" Queina asked, sad. Her eyes were rather desolate as she looked down, while I shook my head answering,
"I don't know. Never met another one. Though it looks like I will be meeting some of them in this whole mess that is approaching us."
There was a smile on my face as I was kind of happy that I could meet people who are in the same position as me. I wonder what kind of people they will be.
"And you will protect everyone this time, too?" Queina asked with a mysterious smile and I chuckled as I answered,
"No. My perfection does not equate to everybody's lives. But as long as people don't cross the line, they can keep their souls in their gut."
My answer froze Quiena's smile as she observed me for a few seconds. Alepsia's expression didn't change much as she agreed with my thoughts.
I am not a saint. Neither do I want to be one.
I am a gamer. I do things the way I like. The way a gamer does. That is all there is to it. That is all there was to it. Nothing more, nothing less.
And then I stood up and stretched as I walked a little. While I was walking, I kept thinking about all the things that I had heard, sorting them all together one by one.
"So, what do we know about Angel Raphi?" I asked as I turned back to Alepsia, who shrieked a little at my sudden question before speaking.
"Ah! I don't know much other than what I have told. From what I had gathered up until now, she was last seen with the Mermaid Queen but the angels didn't really find anything so…"
I paused, walking as I narrowed my eyes at Alepsia before asking another question that surfaced in my mind.
"Which Mermaid Queen? The current one… or the previous one?"
