(EP-122.1) Hunting #2
122 – Monster Hunt #2
“So according to the information that Miss Kalira gathered, that ‘Guide’ man was leading the party, right?”
“Yes. He apparently knew the location of monster caves where they nest and dungeons where treasures were hidden.”
“Hmm. That’s interesting.”Basically, the man calling himself the ‘Guide’ was leading the main character’s party around.
Like an escort leading tourists, they were exploring dungeons and hunting monsters, and increasing their power.
The Guide led them to unmapped labyrinths and dungeons, which allowed the party to greatly enhance their power.
“It is said that the reason they came to Ark is because of the ruins left by the old King. I also heard that they came to hunt some kind of huge monster lurking in Ark….”
“A giant monster? Do you know what it is?”
“I don’t know. They didn’t tell me what it was. It could just be nonsense to grab my attention.”
“Hmm.”I thought about what the monster lurking in Ark could possibly be.
But there was no such thing. Ark was the cradle of warriors. It was not possible.
If there was such an existence worthy of being called a monster, then there was only the soon-to-be despaired Saintess that would turn into the ‘Moon’s Daughter’.
Due to my efforts, Aira did not die and the barrier that was blocking the darkness up north was still intact.
As a result, Ark did not become the last bastion of mankind, and the Saintess did not fall into the darkness. Which meant the probability of the Saintess becoming a monster was quite low.
But then I remembered the meeting with the Saintess.
━That man is going to kill me.
The Saintess warned us that she would be killed by a man named Theodorus. And that he would also target Aira for some reason.
He might have already approached her.
As for who this Theodorus was, there were only two suspects.
The Guide and me.
Since there was no clear evidence of what the original owner of this body did before I possessed it, I was also on the line of suspects for now.
The guide, who suddenly joined the Villain Hunter party, was naturally a suspect. In fact, the Guide had already approached Aira as well.
He said he knew why Aira’s family had died.
“Alright, you have dye all over your hair and need to stay here for an hour or two. You also have to wash your hair after, so get yourself comfortable on the bed or chair.”
Kalira’s words brought me back to reality.
Leaning back on the soft sofa, I asked a few more questions.
“Do you have any other information?”
“Nothing noteworthy. Maybe I can ask more today. Usually at this time, they always come-.”
Knock knock.
━Doctor, I have a lot of injuries again today. Can I get some treatment-.
“As expected, I thought this would happen. It seems like Miriam has come. Should I open the door for her? Or should I turn her away?”
The image of a priestess wearing heavy armor flashed through my mind at the mention of Miriam.
She was a supporting character, a priestess who shattered the bones of demons and monsters with a giant hammer.
And she was currently outside the door.
I shrugged.
“Have her come in. If needed, I can talk to her myself.”
Kalira gave me a small warning, “You have to be careful, the discussion might get unpleasant,” and then opened the door.
I then saw a tied back blonde hair under a blue cap hat.
“Professor~.”
A woman wearing a navy cardigan and a white tank top, with bandages wrapped around her short blue hot pants, came inside the infirmary like a raging tsunami.
She had her arms wide open, as if she was about to hug Kalira.
“Professor, I missed you…!”
However, Kalira simply pushed the former’s face away while clicking her tongue in annoyance.
“Miriam, this is unbecoming of a priestess.”
“You’re so uptight, Professor. What’s wrong with two women hugging each other? Can’t Sisters hug each other?”
The priestess, Miriam, straightened her clothes. I quickly glanced at her casual attire and assessed her strength.

When I activated 《Farsight》, a list of Miriam’s stats and level came to mind.
She was at Level 39.
Considering that I was level 39, after increasing the level of Casanova a while ago, it might feel like her level wasn’t that high.
However, she had several combat-oriented jobs such as Inquisitor, High Priestess, Destroyer and Exterminator. All of which appeared to be physically powerful with high levels.
Miriam might not have a diverse range of skills, but she was, without a doubt, a professional in smashing and destroying things.
If we fought, could I win?
No, as I was now, I would not even be a Fifth-Rank Archmage. There was no way I could win in a direct confrontation.
“Hmm? Why do I sense an unpleasant gaze?”
At this time, Miriam turned her head towards me, and I hurriedly deactivated Farsight. It seemed that the main character party had keen senses.
“You are…?”
