"Ummm… excuse . Can you please stop bothering her?" I asked politely as I observed those adventurers. No point in ruining a date when we can try solving with words, right?
"Huh? Who are you?" the three of them turned around while the one at the center tried analyzing .
"Is there any problem, Mr?" the one on the left asked with a cautious look. He, too, was sizing up.
"Adam!!" Evelyn, who was the most happy at my arrival, rushed towards and held by the arm as she tightendly gripped closer to her.
"As you can see, I am her date," I spoke as I pointed at her before adding," now. If you will excuse us."
I moved past them with Evelyn still hugging my arm, but I felt a hand on my shoulder, making halt my steps. Turning around, I saw the one at the center looking at with a threatening look.

Perhaps because his stats were lower than mine, I could see his status much more than others. If I were to guess, it must be the difference in the Wisdom Stat? Well, we can experint with it later.
[Super Strength!]
I removed his hand from my shoulder and then pressed it lightly, before increasing the pressure. I saw his expression changing as he fell down to the ground while crying in pain.
"It's a simple warning. Don't do anything rash," I spoke before letting his hand go. A sigh escaped my mouth before looking at Evelyn as I spoke." apologies that you had to see sothing like that."
She looked at dazed as she muttered," Ah!... okay… "
We then entered the restaurant, ignoring the attention of everyone who was observing us with a rather amazed look. Inside the restaurant, it didn't take long before we found a table on the top floor.
Under the moonlight, the corner seats in the restaurant seed rather pleasant. The white tablecloth on which the wine glasses and the plates were already arranged appeared quite high end. There was a waiter standing by each table, whether the table was filled or not.
Moving to the second last table, I helped Evelyn first before sitting opposite to her. Looking at the nu, I said,"So what would the lady prefer to eat?"
"I will have the restaurant's special. Also, for starters, can you get Sea Griffin's soup? A bit of sesa salt would be nice as well," she said before looking at ," should I order for you as well?"
I nodded before she ordered for as well, before adding a couple of drinks to the order at the end.
Once the waiter was gone, she finally relaxed a little before turning to ,
"So what's your story?"
"What do you an by that?" I asked with a mysterious smile.
"Aren't adventurers filled with peculiar stories of their own? Certainly, you too would have your own," she asked as she poured a bit of water for before pouring for herself.
"I guess I do have so. But it wouldn't be fair to share a bit of mine before hearing so, don't you think?" I spoke as I drank the water. The water was a bit cold, quenching my thirst, before spreading a cooling sensation through my throat.
"? Well, personally, I don't have much to tell from my side. Sa old boring receptionist job at the guild while handling adventurers. At ho, I take care of my younger brother and sisters, and the leftover ti goes into shopping. It was a bit miraculous that I even got ti today," she said before looking at the distant horizon.
"Though… I got so juicy information a few hours earlier," she suddenly gave a side eye before adding," you have heard about the Mirag Town?"
'...'
I couldn't speak anything, as I tried my best to maintain a poker expression.
"Supposedly, sothing big happened there before dawn. The whole guild was going crazy this afternoon, sending a bunch of high-class adventurers there. Not only that, even the Saintess and her guard went there. They should be reaching there by now," she explained what she heard.
"Any idea what the reason could be?" I asked curiously, and she sighed," it is a rumor but an Ancient God was involved in this. There was a sacrifice that was going to occur, but it was stopped at the very last mont by a certain soone."
"Sobody stopped the Ancient Gods' sacrifice? Isn't that a bit far-fetched?" I acted surprised, and she nodded as well," exactly!! But well… the commotion is making people doubt things a lot. I an, even the Saintess is involved."
"Hmmm… so? Anything about the miraculous God stopping man?" I smirked, making her chuckle a little," not really. People of Mirag Town are calling him a ssiah sent by the Goddess of Light. Though most people are calling him by the na of 'Phantom'."
"Seems like Mirag Town is going to be the center of attention for the ti being," I analyzed it. In fact, I already knew it. An Ancient God, a giant circle at the center of the city, 1000s of people almost sacrificed and the miraculous man who flipped the entire situation.
'They probably have found the body of the necromancer and the illusion mage as well,' I thought before looking at her as she continued," I guess so. More and more people will be visiting the town. Well, that's all I know about it for now… it's your turn. Tell about yourself."
I smiled as I spoke," well. It's not as much of a secret, but I am more of a battle mage that can use light magic. Even though I could use light magic, I don't have any offensive spells. So I usually use it for healing while focusing on close combat."
I spoke before pondering, then adding,
"I am from a small town in the west. You probably haven't even heard of it. I ca here to find out if I could use light magic, though honestly I don't want to rely on the church for it. Personal reasons."
She nodded as she spoke," I understand. You aren't the first light mage who doesn't want to be affiliated with the church… I guess I can help you out with that. There is a man nad Oriel, within the guild. An S-Class Adventurer… He is probably your best shot at learning any spells."
"I will keep that in mind. Is there anything else you are curious about?" I looked at her, making her chuckle before she put her finger on her lips as she began thinking.
"Let see…. Yeah! What are your plans after learning light magic?" she asked as she observed and I nodded before speaking." I will be leaving for another city. There is soone… or more like a group of people that I need to et."
"Eh? So you won't be here for that long? That's a bumr… Which city, by the way?" She looked at and I just smiled at her before she sighed and didn't ask any further questions about it.
