- Uhm... - Roberu was cleaning a glass at his bar, he seemed extremely thoughtful as he stared at his own reflection in the glass.
- Hieeee! - Says a female voice making Roberu look up, he looks at a girl in front of him who had a nun-like outfit, she had red eyes and some of her lilac hair passed under the nun's hat, with the girl having redder skin than Roberu.
- Good afternoon Aya. - Roberu says giving the girl a slight smile.
- You know, you seem a little distant since you came back from the rescue mission of that girl named Ina, is everything okay? - Asks the nun girl, Roberu just frowns and continues to stare at the glass polishing it.
- It's nothing, just a stupid little thing that's bothering me. - Says the bartender.
- If it's bothering you, it's not stupid, come on, don't you want to share it with your childhood friend? – Asks the girl, leaning closer to the bartender's face, who sighs in defeat.
- Look, have you ever had doubts about what you were doing?
- What do you mean?
- You've always been sure of what you want to do in your life, however you just... start to doubt what you really want and what you don't want, it's a complicated thing to explain, but it's more like... out of nowhere more options appear in front of you, you know? And it seems like these options attract you, but the only thing you know is who you are... - Roberu says, the nun girl looks at him with doubt about what he was saying.
- Tsk, forget it, I think I'm just getting a little nervous about all the preparation for the ritual, I must be going crazy. – Roberu comments, with his hand on his forehead feeling a slight headache.
- I think I more or less understood what you meant... I've had doubts about many things in life, I think that's normal for people, we'll never know if we're following the right path and we'll always doubt it. – Aya says.
- But there's one thing I'm sure of, and that's that I'll always follow you wherever you go, Roberu. So whatever your decision, I'll be with you. That's why I joined this cult! To be with you forever! – Aya says with a big smile, making the bartender smile weakly at her.
"Fighting for something you don't believe in, just because it's your destiny, is the saddest thing that could happen to a person."
- Why can't these words leave my head... what's in them that ended up staying with me? – Roberu thinks, until he and Aya receive a message, which only tells them to come down quickly.
The two then run off and quickly go down the stairs of that bar. As they descended, a large place beneath that establishment was revealed. It was a medium-sized room similar to the meeting room where En held conferences for the missions. However, the place seemed to be like a large tomb, with statues of a monstrous being with the planet Earth in its hand, black stone bricks and lit by torches.
- You two have arrived, sorry to call it that but we're going to have a change of plans~ - Marujo said with a big smile. Next to him was Ina standing with a neutral expression and empty eyes. Other people who were Marujo's subordinates were at that table.
- And why would this happen out of nowhere? - Roberu asked.- Mangoral didn't come back here even though I called him. I wouldn't normally care, but given our delicate situation and so close to concluding our plans, the best we can assume is that he was captured by our enemies and now they can plan an attack on the bar. - Marujo said.
- BASTARD! HE HAD TO BE CAUGHT, HUH?! – Shouts an old man, banging his fist on the table. He was extremely muscular and tall, wearing a black cap.
- I must say that Mangoral getting caught is impressive. His skill is precisely to not be like that~ - Says a woman, a cow demi-human. She was wearing a very revealing purple Chinese-style dress.
