Lefter, the boy, started to speak in an unknown language, making Radmilo to frowned in confusion.
"Are you a foreigner?" Radmilo asked, still pointing his sword at the boy.
Five minutes had passed but the boy still speak in his language. Radmilo knew a few languages as he joined the IRO. People from all over the world joined the IRO, so Radmilo began to get to know their language. However, he had no idea what language the boy was using.
anwhile, Lefter realized Radmilo could not understand his words. He had co to earth using a teleportation item; a gift from a fellow pri mover. But the translator item did not seem to work.
Lefter removed the earpieces and examined them. There was not sothing strange about the earpiece translator. It seed the translator system had encountered an error so it could not find it.
He was not the one who made the item, hence he did not what went wrong. Now his situation was not good. Radmilo appeared to consider him a threat.
"You won't speak?" Radmilo raised his eyebrows. He also wanted to communicate with the boy but they did not understand each other.
Lefter touched the tip of Radmilo's sword and shook his head. He was making an effort to tell the man not to attack him.
On the other hand, Radmilo understood Lefter's body language and drew back his sword. He felt that the boy had co to et him on purpose. However, he was certain they had never t before.
He then looked at the boy from head to toe. The boy had a physique like a human and wore clothes like other children; a shirt and short pants.
The only thing that caught Radmilo's eye was the boy's golden irises. Radmilo did not notice it at first but now he realized it was a little weird.
The boy was also holding the magic earpiece. Looked like his earpiece had a problem.
Radmilo took the magic earpiece and examined it. He imdiately noticed that the boy had not activated the earpiece yet.
"You have to press it like this," Radmilo spoke, even though he knew the boy would not understand his words.
He pressed the small button on the magic earpiece and it imdiately lit up, giving off a bluish light.
Lefter blinked as he stared at the blue light. Then, he took his magic earpiece from Radmilo's hand and put it back in his ear.
"Test, test," he spoke and the magic earpiece translated his language automatically.
"Ah, it's a translator item," Radmilo rembered he had a translator item, but decided to keep it in his inventory because he realized the boy did not speak human language. "Are you an alien or sothing?"
Lefter thought a mont before responding. "Well, most humans call an alien. You can call that way if you want."
"So, why would an alien like you co to earth to et ?" Radmilo gripped the hilt of his sword tightly, ready to attack Lefter if the boy acted strangely.
"I am... Um, your master?"
"Pardon ?"
"You don't seem to like my choice of words," Lefter considered what he would say to keep Radmilo from getting angry. "I arranged for Clem to et you. You had talked to him, right?"
Radmilo nodded in response. If the boy knew Clem, then it ant he also knew about the outside world. He did not know the true identity of the boy. It could be if he was a new type of monster.
Monts later, the boy spoke about sothing that Radmilo did not expect.
"I am Lefter, a pri mover. You must already know what a pri mover is. I am the one who gave you the power to control ti. When you experience an awakening, you receive a notification of approval. It is a contract if you read it carefully."
Radmilo did not expect the pri mover to co to earth to et him this fast. He thought pri movers just stayed in their world and were busy with their business.
"The reason I ca here was to talk about your strength," Lefter kept on. "You have returned to the past. This ti, you can't lose. I have bet a lot on you."
Hearing this, Radmilo imdiately snorted while rolling his eyes. "I will not be defeated by anyone not because this is your request, but because it is my choice."
"Yeah, whatever. I don't care what you do. But you have to win! I don't want you to act like an idiot as you did in your previous life."
"I'm not an idiot. I'm just taking advantage of the situation. After all, I can always go back in ti and fix things."
Lefter glared at Radmilo. "That was your biggest mistake! You acted carelessly because you thought you could always turn back ti. Don't you think what happens if your power stops functioning?"
"Take it easy, boy. I'm already aware of that. All this ti I have also used my last skill carefully. But what I said is true, right? You gave the power to control ti. Other people would do the sa if they is ."
Radmilo put his sword back in his inventory because he was sure that Lefter would not attack him. It seed the boy only intended to warn him not to act stupid.
anwhile, Lefter could only control his breathing because Radmilo's response slightly triggered his emotions.
"I can't tell you much because I have to follow the rules. But you have to be careful wherever and with everyone you et. Even if you go back in ti, it's useless if you change the future too much."
"We share the sa brain cells in that one," Radmilo smirked. "I realized there's soone bigger than at IRO. Hector is one of them. I'm sure a lot of pri movers are betting on him."
Lefter was happy because he did not have to explain in detail. It turned out that Radmilo was not difficult to communicate with.
"Actually, several pri movers have already descended to earth to et their contractors. It's not an offense as long as they don't cross a certain point. I didn't co to see you in your previous life, thinking that you were a smart human and didn't need my guidance."
Hearing sothing interesting, Radmilo rubbed his chin. "Are you trying to say you ca because I'm not smart?"
"I'm not sure. Maybe I should lower your intelligence on your stats."
"Huh? You are the one controlling my stats?"
"Of course. All pri movers manage their contractor's stats. My criteria for achieving an S in Durabilty are different from those of other pri movers."
Radmilo listened seriously. To be honest, he was a little surprised because he thought the stats were raised automatically by the system. Stats were one of the determining hunters' ranks from the Guild Union.
Rank was determined by how often hunter raids. If a hunter had completed a lot of raids and their win percentage was high, then they would have high points too.
After analyzing the results of the raid, the Guild Union would ask the hunters to do a physical test. It was the final decider. Guild Union would test the strength, dexterity, health, and durability of the hunters.
The physical test was considered a difficult test. Many hunters did not reach A or S levels and protested. They claid the Guild Union was manipulating the data because the stats in their system indicated that they had reached level A.
"I think everyone's stats are set by the system," Radmilo finally said sothing. "Well, that's only natural since so pri movers don't see their contractors."
Lefter nodded several tis. "You are right. They let misunderstandings happen because it's fun. So pri movers deliberately don't raise their contractor's stats so the humans will train harder."
"Then, why did you raise so of my stats to S? Am I really at that level?"
"I think our conversation is going to be very long. How about you finish your business first and head to a more comfortable place?"
Radmilo glanced around. He agreed with Lefter's words. They were in front of the dungeon now. This was not a good place to talk about important matters.
"Fine. But I still have a few dungeons to clear. Do you mind waiting?"
Lefter shook his head. "I like to wait. Since I have nowhere else to go, I will follow you."
"I will use my power to go to the next dungeon. Can you follow ?"
"I can use my power within a certain ti limit. And I think I can keep up with you."
A mont after that, Radmilo used the skill and Lefter followed behind him. They arrived at a supermarket that had been unused since it was turned into a dungeon.
Radmilo opened the iron gate and entered the dungeon with Lefter.
[You have entered the Abandoned Supermarket!
Mid-level dungeon
