Ethan felt a sense of determination, in order to be of more use to his goddess he needed more power.
At his current level he knew he couldn't be compared with Monica or any of the other high-ranking members.
'If I can't even surpass them then... I doubt I'll ever be able to surpass that man.' Ethan thought. As a certain black-haired man appeared in his mind.
The man who was once known as 'Ruler of battlefield' And 'Right hand sword of the goddess' Ethan clenched his fist in frustration.
'Damn it! Even in death your still hailed as the strongest!' He thought.
[Will you stop with the sentimental feelings already! You're giving me a headache!] An annoyed voice sounded inside his head. 'Oh, did I wake you? I'm sorry about that.' Ethan apologized to his spirit sword,
[Sigh, I can understand Your feelings, but your low opinion of yourself really is starting to bother me, you know.] The spirit sword sounded really worried about the mentality of its partner.
'... Sigh, once this meeting is over let's go back to training.' Ethan suggested.
[Heh, that's more like it. keep that spirit of yours blazing and you'll be strong in no time.] The spirit sword responded.
Meanwhile, the conversation between Monica and Udea was proceeding smoothly.
"We investigated the dungeon you ask us to. However, we weren't able to find the 'eyes of truth' perhaps that artifact was destroyed with the river of time?" Monica said, expressing her opinion on the matter.
"Hmm... that's impossible. The eyes of truth were an indestructible artifact, even if I had used my most powerful attack there wouldn't be a single scratch on that artifact." Udea explained.
"Eh, really? Even you wouldn't be able to destroy it?" Monica's amethysts eyes widen slightly in a show of surprise.
Monica no, all of Udea's loyal followers had unconditionally trust in her. Their level of trust was so vast that even if Udea were to say,
"The clouds from the sky will fall today" They will believe her words without even thinking twice about the possibility of such a thing happening.
"J-Just how durable is that artifact?" She couldn't help but ask. Hearing her sudden question Udea brought her hand to her mouth and chuckled pleasantly.
"Fufufu... that artifact was created by my sister and myself when we were one, you know. It had absorbed a large quantity of our divine energies. So, its durability is nothing to scoffed at." Udea explained, her purple lips widen into a small smile.
"I- I see... then maybe someone had taken it before we could arrive." Monica said, pondering to herself.
"... That is a possibility, those bastards were already there from the beginning, maybe they were the ones who took it." Ethan Interjected.
"Hmm... I doubt that." Monica said, shutting down Ethan's theory.
"Wh-Why?" Ethan asked, confused.
"They didn't seem to know what we were searching for, and they also seem to be searching for something else... Also, that guy, Isaac didn't seem to know about the treasures lying dormant there." Monica exclaimed, as she narrowed her eyes slightly.
"I agree with Monica on this... I don't see any reason why my sister would be interested in the 'eyes of truth' for me it's an artifact I must obtain no matter what, while as for my sister it was a useless piece of junk." Udea leaned back onto the backrest of her throne as she explained.
