(Zyrowin's POV)

I woke up today as usual, there was nothing strange that happened. I had not been transported back into the circle of reincarnation or was I in a Jail Cell as I had feared. Thank God.

As I got up, I realized.. that I had been horribly wrong.

'Master, It seems you have woken up!'

'...Who in the world are you?!'


This.. person? Who had somehow appeared when I was asleep was a gigantic man wearing some heavy knight looking armor with a helmet which resembled that of a Kabutomushi's head. He wielded a large battle axe and gave off a pressure comparable to that of the boss monster I fought.

Wait a minute! Isn't that the loot I got from the treasure chest?! Don't tell me this is...

'Of course, I apologize for startling you. I am the one who you have named, Icacus.'

Of course it is! Why the hell did you become like this?! Wait a minute could it be because he ate that weird black bead you ate yesterday?

'Yes, Indeed it is because of the consumption of the mana core but I believe it has more to deal with you than anything'

Holy crap he can read my mind as well! 'Eh wait.. did you just say it was because of me?'

'Umu, that time when I was picked up by you after I was injured. I was given a blessing by an unknown god. Because of this I was able to evolve into my current form after consuming the mana core.'

'An unknown god?'

'Right, although we are but bugs. We still understand the concept of godly beings, and of course I've never heard of such a god.'

'What was his name?'

'It was Calamity God Miargovold'

'... A continent?'

'Umu, this God seems to be watching over you and decided to grant me a blessing so I could protect you. Naturally, after receiving this power, I will not betray his expectations!'

'... I see, Miargovold huh? Perhaps this is his way of telling me to go to Miargovold? Well, I'll have to pass by to get to Termanivium anyway.'

And thus, I added visiting the Miargovold continent onto my already long to-do list. Now then, It seems like the loot I received yesterday wasn't useless after all, actually, it was lucky since they seem to suit Icacus. Almost as if it was rigged... there's no way it was though...right?'

Brushing away all my uncertainty, and whatever shock I had left I had decided this would probably be the best time to run away. After all, I doubt that no one had heard an explosion coming from a nearby dungeon. Not my brightest idea, now that I'm thinking about it again.

'Hey, Icacus let's leave now. Also I'd like an estimation of your strength.'

'Of course master, after absorbing the armor you had I am slightly more durable than the monster you fought yesterday. I am however only as strong as he was.'

'That's perfect, also stop calling me master, it's making me uncomfortable. Zyrowin will do.'

'Of course,Zyrowin-sama.'

'Ha.. you just-'

I heard the sounds of footsteps coming from the stairs, of course it seems Icacus had noticed as well. I saw around 10 men, all of them wore white clothes with red patterns. They all gave off some scary auras and although their robes were different they were without a doubt..
