The Goddess Of War

Chapter 223 - Miyuki's Chat With Gina

No matter what he does, it doesn't matter what he does and it doesn't matter how he has the power to do it.

The person in question will definitely feel comfortable when he has someone who can always understand him without much to ask and want to know more about why he did it.

That's what Miyuki feels right now.

Even though she was under the gaze of Kevin, Gus, Davina, Lucy and Yola who were very curious about the power she had and how to get it, somehow Miyuki who was previously a bit nervous, was quite nervous, become more relaxed as there are Gina and Bimo there, who seem not curious about her past.

Especially because of Gina.

The curious friends did not dare to open their mouths to treat their curiosity just because Gina was there.

They know, Gina kind of dislikes people who intimidate others by asking a lot of personal questions. So they, who had great respect for Gina, kept quiet while eating each other's dinners.

That made Miyuki, who was tired from imagining having to tell stories from the beginning about how she got her strength, more comfortable. Since there was Gina there, she was finally able to sit down to eat casually without getting tired of telling stories.

Miyuki actually really does not mind to tell the thing that makes her friends are curious, because he didn't want to cover anything from the people who had directly come without thinking of their own safety just to take him on the run from the pursuit of some of the world's strongest Hunters.

However, he was still troubled by the thought of how he could catch up and get Li Wen Xia and Albert Brosman. So he kind of lost the mood to tell stories.

A few hours later, at night when there was only Gina in the living room of Anna's apartment, Miyuki came to him.

Normally, Miyuki would not sit down to join someone unless they were eating a meal that attracted her interest.

However, because there was something he had to tell Gina, he finally came to see Gina alone.

"Miyu's? You're not going back to the basement?"

"No. I'll be back there tomorrow morning with Rin."

"That's it..."

"Where are the others?"

"Eitherway. They said they wanted to get down for some fresh air." Gina, smiling. His face did not show as much curiosity as the others while staring at Miyuki. "You're not sitting? Sit down.." said Gina as she patted the empty spot next to her. "Have we not seen each other in a long time?"

Although they are together every day, Miyuki is with them in the form of an avatar.

It had been 6 months since the last time they met in person like this.

"Did you miss me?" miyuki said, while sitting with her butt on the sofa.

"Of course," said Gina flatly. He was a bit amazed when he saw Miyuki smile.

This was the first time Gina had seen Miyuki smile like that. Her smile was so sweet that it made Gina instantly pull the girl's body and rest Miyuki's head on her shoulders.

Aside from Miyuki's smile, Gina also really misses the times like these that used to decorate her teenage years. When his younger brother Luke was in elementary school and his parents always took the time to get together after dinner.

Unfortunately, things change after Luke causes trouble, and he is imprisoned in the Association's custody. Also, his father is now dead. Automatically, only his mother is still there and lives in the Stewart family residence alone.

"Miyu's. Do you want to come to my family's residence?"

"Huh?" Miyuki straightened her sitting position, surprised to hear that.

"I thought, my mother must be very lonely right now when my father is gone and my sister is in jail."

"I mean, is it okay if I visit your parents' house?"

Gina scrunched her forehead.

"of course. Unless you don't want it."

"I want to" Miyuki said quickly.

Hearing that, Gina smiled again.

"What if we all go to my parents' house tomorrow morning? After that I'll take you to the lab."

"Yes." Yeah."

After the conversation, the atmosphere went back to silence.

Usually, they would turn on the television and watch the news in a relaxed moment like this. However, Gina deliberately did not turn on the television that was opposite them, as she knew all the news channels must be discussing what Miyuki had just done.

"Sugar."

"Yes?"

"You remember that illegal raid that made big news four years ago?"

"A illegal raid done for two whole months?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Yes. What's with the raid?"

"I did it. I was also still conducting illegal raids in over five hundred Dungeons, for two years after that."

"What?!" Gina was surprised to hear that. He turned his body around to sit facing Miyuki.

"I got my strength from there. I took all the magic crystals and monster bodies inside the Dungeon to increase my strength."

Gina did not respond. He just stared at Miyuki with a gaping mouth.

Seeing Gina's expression, Miyuki lowered her head. He knew it was against the World Association's terms.

"I knew it was wrong" Miyuki said softly.

"What?"

"illegal laid. Well, I think five hundred is a lot. But in the next two years, I didn't steal the gate that a guild had bought. I have a tool to detect the place where the gate will appear. So I went there before the Association found out."

Gina laughs. He realized that Miyuki was mistaken with a surprised expression.

"Oh.., I'm just surprised how can a teenage girl like you do a raid in five hundred Dungeons. If it was four years ago, then, you're fifteen, right?"

"Y-yeah..."

"Do you do it alone?"

"Yes..."

Gina was silent again for a while.

"You're crazy..."

"Huh?"

"That's very dangerous."

"Ah.., it's not too dangerous for me."

Gina scrunched her eyebrows together. He was indeed curious how Miyuki could be so powerful. But, he wasn't too willing to think about it. As long as Miyuki was on the human side and helping humans, it was fine for her.

But, those 'not too dangerous' words bothered him greatly.

"What do you mean? Did you get a very high revival rating?"

Miyuki shakes.

"I started from D-rank. Merely, I got a great teacher who passed down a very efficient killing technique on me."

"Ah..., so I see." Gina remembered Miyuki's extremely deadly battle technique as the girl controlled the avatar.

The movement is very fast. Miyuki also did not put too much effort into killing the opponent, no matter how strong the opponent was.

Miyuki only needed one move to cut off the necks of her opponents.

As far as Gina was concerned, only Anna, Damballa and Li Wen Xia had made Miyuki move a lot as she fought against them. It was also because the power of the avatar was very far below the three of them.

So, Gina did not question anymore how great Miyuki's teacher was and how Miyuki who was still at the D rank could fight in many Dungeons.

"But...," Gina again spoke, "Are you doing the raid in all those Dungeons alone from the start?"

"Yes." Yeah."

"Your fighting technique is really very great..."

"My killing technique is great. I've never met an opponent who has really gotten me into trouble so far. But, Anna's fighting technique is much better than mine."

"What?!"

"You remember when he was hypnotized?"

"Y-yes."

"Even though we can't sense his Mana energy, I know he fights without using any Mana energy at all. He only used his physical strength and physical speed. While I've been helped mana energy avatars are ranked SS."

"Ah.., y-yeah. You're right."

"And again, I think Anna knows that I have great power in my body."

"He ever asked you?"

Miyuki shakes.

"He didn't ask directly. But, there were some moments when Anna asked me to fight alone instead of using an avatar. You recall? He also asked me to do an assessment on his Orc and Elf warriors when we were first in his artificial world."

Gina nodded.

"Anna seemed to know I could judge how strong they were because she knew I was stronger than them even though I was disguising my Mana energy up to F rank."

"You're stronger than Nobara?!" Gina half yelled. All this time he thought that only Anna was stronger than Nobara.

"Y-yes. You know, above S rank, only someone who has a higher Mana energy can hide his strength from the weaker."

Gina nodded up many times. She really admired Miyuki.

"That means..., is Anna so much stronger than you that you can't sense her Mana energy?"

Miyuki shakes.

"I don't know how big his Mana energy is. Anna's powers seem different from the ones we have."

"Different?"

"Yes. I once made a special Mana energy meter for him and it was instantly broken the moment he tried it."

"..."

"He seems to know I'm hiding my powers but doesn't want to ask until I say it myself."

"She probably doesn't want you to feel uncomfortable."

"Tsk... But he tested me a few times. Anna once asked me to hack the CCTV in your apartment to investigate who protected her while she lay in a coma. But he never talked about it again then after he probably found out that I did it. And also.." Miyuki was a bit annoyed when she recalled Anna asking her to transport some magic crystal trucks by herself.

"Yes?"

"It's okay..," Miyuki chose not to discuss it. He felt stupid at the time.

Miyuki and Gina then took a deep breath at almost the same time.

"By the way.., where is he now?"
