Godly Farmer Doctor: Arrogant Husband, Can't Afford To Offend!

Chapter 1521: Going Back To The Dark Labyrinth

After our battle against Pereza, the Dark Labyrinth ended becoming very weakened. Although monsters still began to spawn, they were doing so at a slower pace than before. So we had to go deeper to find even more. Sol wasn't so depressive at killing monsters, he seemed to be able to easily wield all of his Skills without needing practice, as if they were a natural extension of his body. He had even pointed it out, but this is most likely a thing related to being a Summon, most likely. He was leveling up quite decently and increasing his stats steadily, but the EXP for me was very pathetic so I wasn't able to level up at all. I need hundreds of thousands of EXP or it simply won't work for me, sadly. I really need something bigger and stronger… I guess I'll have to do with the Human Army.

My Ego Weapons had also joined the fray, Aquamarine was practicing his fighting style in his Beast Form, the beautiful blue and rainbow tiger he could transform. He discovered he was able to adjust his size, with the maximum size being up to 3 meters and the smallest to half a meter, so he could even pose as a smaller and domestic animal, not like we'll ever need that to be honest. Meanwhile, White and Black were practicing their elemental transformation Skills and having some fun killing monsters by themselves. White enjoyed flashing around with her bright light body, her speed is almost completely like that of actual light, so whenever she moves from one area to another, it feels almost like teleportation. Meanwhile, Black is not the slowest but he's definitely in the slower side of movement, darkness can't move that quickly after all. However, he's having fun munching down monsters.

Normal monsters also can't give Egos or anything, so we pretty much lost our opportunity with Pereza, well, not like I had much of a chance back then, I mostly did things with a single goal, not with something underhanded in the back of my mind. But from now on we'll try out Black's Predation in anything that seems like a boss-level threat and see if an Ego comes out of it. I wonder if I could get an Ego-related Skill if we do manage to get something similar. Maybe I could infuse them into equipment of this world and gift it to Elfina and Luminous. I want to give something to that old dragon, like something that doesn't age, a living weapon or armor. That way he will never feel alone any longer.

…

Ah, why am I worrying about him? I shouldn't really care… But still, I guess these people have really grew inside of my heart at this point. It's kind of frustrating how easy I get attached with others sometimes. I guess you could really call me a softie in that regard. Or maybe… I am just lonely myself too, and I just want to have some people to rely and care for in this world, even though I am planning on leaving soon. Elfina, Luminous, and Fiere are already people I care for. Our adventure in the Dark Labyrinth really felt like we were a party of adventurers. Sigh, if only I didn't had a hideous appearance, we might have enjoyed ourselves a bit more in a more… traditional way, I guess.

After reaching floor six, we sat down over the floor with a pile of monsters behind us. Sol seemed calmer, as if fighting these monsters and using his skills without caring about anything else had soothed his soul and perhaps his doubts. He sighed while he made a small bonfire to warm himself in the coldness and dampness of the dungeon. I decided to take a few things from my Item Box such as a pot and a few sticks to feed the fire, I quickly took out some veggies, chopped them down with a phantasmal hand using a knife I got from Floresse, and then added a few spices and lastly some water. After that was done, I took one of the monsters we hunted, a large Armored Bear, and I cut it down for the meat, taking a few chunks and cutting them into little cubes, throwing them into the pot. I was going to just make a simple stew.

"Ah, I didn't knew you were rather good at cooking, Kireina. I thought a body such as yours would make it difficult for you to navigate around it, but it seems you're not having a hard time at all." Said Sol. "Is that an Aura? I had never seen something like that."

"Yeah it's an Aura, I combine Phantasmal Aura which allows me for the precise shaping of the aura into limbs and fingers, and then use Divine Aura to enchant its materialization, so it is as if I had real limbs… Well, I can create bug legs, but that doesn't count." I sighed while shrugging with my long and stretchy phantasmal arms.

"Right… I guess you truly had a human-like body before, huh?" Wondered Sol. "How did you die?"

"Oh? You're interested in me out of nowhere? Did you calm down your mind a bit?" I wondered.

"…Yeah, quite so. After hunting with you for a while, my heart has calmed a bit. I realized I was being a bit too overly emotional about my previous life. I did said I wanted that to be left in the past, but the scars came with me even to another world…" He sighed. "Sorry if I acted annoying with you, it wasn't really my intention."

"Oh, don't worry man, that's how we are sometimes. We can't really control our emotions sometimes and we just… let them out." I sighed.

"Ah, it is nice to have a good friend that can understand me. I suppose you're truly from Genesis. Deep down, I have to admit, I was very afraid the moment I was summoned. I acted gallantly because I always revert to that personality when I am between people I don't know…" Sighed Sol.

"Oh? Is that so?" I wondered.

So what's his true personality?
