Information gathering was harder with these golems speaking in broken words. Their way of talking was annoying, but I had cald myself down not to break them into pieces.
The cores of these golems were their tell. The darker shade their core is, the more power they have. And from what I could tell, the one I captured had little power.
For a second rank world, I thought this place would be more organized. The people of Malleica don't have many ways to communicate with people away from the town.
While the ZTF has set up its organization here, they don't involve most of the residents of this world. Only the top of the food chain would join the ZTF and fight for their cause.
When you think about it, this world was peaceful but boring at the sa ti. I wonder what these golems do for entertainnt. I didn't want to hear anything from them, so I stopped myself from asking.
Looking at the cores of these golems, it was too bad I couldn't compare the power level of the strongest in this town to the strongest in the world.
Before I took a while to think, I decided to tie the golem up and return after I knew when keeping this golem would be useful. And if it weren't, I would leave it here forever. I'm sure soone freed it a few years later.
Leaving the place, I found a different place to attack. Compared to the tiny town, this one was a city. Even if I couldn't see everyone's core, I could feel that the people here were much stronger. It looks like I won't be coming backed to the tied-up golem.
"Who!!! Are!!! You?!!"
I didn't expect a rock would have extraordinary sense. Shouting from a few kiloters away, I could see the golem looking in my direction. Instead of showing up in front of him, I ca from behind.
"I'm Charles. Sorry, but I can't see the ranks of you people. Are you near the top?"
When an invasion begins, the ranking of our enemy is hidden. The rock creature quickly turned around and grabbed when I finished talking.
"Going to crush ? I suggest you don't do that."
The golem, of course, didn't take my words seriously and had done what I said not to. All the bones in my body had been crushed, and the blood spilled on the golem had been corrosive. His limbs started to break down, and any more would kill it completely.
"What are you?!!"
Shocked by a corrosive substance coming from my blood, he tried to cut off any part of its body that contained my blood. Before the blood went into the core, he had barely stopped it in the nick of ti.
But that wasn't enough. My body had recovered quicker than the rock's limb. Before I played around longer, I chained the golem up like the last golem from the previous town.
Chained down, it grunted and tried to struggle its way out. Even if the golem tried to weaken these chains, it would take years before it got out.
Those who saw the battle had ended without difficulty ran in panic. There were so people that still initiated combat with , but I didn't find it worthwhile.
As for the runners, I could leave these golems alive, but this was war. The golems here probably weren't involved with the ZTF, but I can't afford to be nice to a possible enemy.
Before the golems could scream in pain, I finished them all rupture on the ground. Like an earthquake, everything had collapsed. The only thing alive was the golem I had chained earlier.
[Third Person POV]
"Linsey do you know the person that Charles wants to find?"
Using a tracker, Agnus and the rest of his crew are spectating the actions of Charles. After seeing what Charles could do, the crew that doubted Agnus' judgnt could now see why he praised him so highly.
As for Agnus' question, he might as well start searching for said person. Linsey here is the person closest to Charles, so she might have a clue on who's missing.
"Her na is Constance. She has been gone from our world for almost a week."
The news of Constance disappearing had spread within the higher-up social ladder on Earth. They had to hide this information from the humans on Earth, or panic would arise.
"He's really sothing, isn't he?"
His question was ant for himself, but those who listened in couldn't help but wonder what abilities Charles had.
The powers he showcased didn't match those from a second-world rank. It was evident from the destruction he caused.
While he wasn't overly strong to the others in the room, it was impressive for soone his age and background.
"I didn't expect him to be this arrogant..."
Agnus muttered once again. During their training, Charles never displayed such actions. His way of fighting was fatal to those much stronger than him in a battle.
It was understandable if you saw it from Charles's perspective. All of his battles had ended with winning with ease. To him, no opponent would match him at the level he was playing at. That was all it was.
Knowing what Agnus had said, everyone in the room couldn't help but pity Charles. Despite being calm and chill to most people, he was a perfectionist.
To Agnus, this flaw could not be overlooked. As soone who had trained Charles a little, he had considered Charles, his student. Unknown to Charles, he will be forced to take a beating because of his recent attitude.
Inside the cara, Charles sneezed at the thought of Agnus. He ignored the danger he would face in the future and continued to go to his destination.
When arriving at a major city, he luckily went to a city where a ZTF base resided. This was an enemy that he needed to find. After all, it was part of the job.
