Oliver: (Thank you, Emperor!)
He was quick to give thanks because getting a new skill really gave him a very pleasant feeling.
He even wanted to use the skill immediately, but then realized that now was not the right time.
There was no problem using it during the day. It was just that the skill was better used when it was really important.
Perhaps if he acted, he would be of great help to people.
However, it could be a bad thing because people wouldn't get the chance to level up as it could be that all the monster fish attacking the city right now were killed if he used that skill.
Worst of all, if the first group of monster fish that came was killed, there could be another group that was stronger.
By then, he would be exhausted while the people in the city were unable to fight them.
He needed to relax now, waiting for a really strong monster attack before using the skill.
"We're going back now," Oliver said before flying his cube far into the sky.
It needed to be flown very high so that the people in the city couldn't see it.
Shua!
It started heading towards the city when it was far above the clouds.
From above, Oliver could still see the scene below clearly.
Due to the increase in his strength, his vision had also become much sharper.
His current eyes were practically stronger than an eagle's.
"Mm..."
He was quickly drawn to something when he arrived above the north gate.
The figure of a woman in ice armor was rampaging in front of the gate, freezing the ocean and forming various icicles out of seawater.
Hundreds of fish were made to freeze by the figure, making the people fighting around her become excited.
Vera continued to have trouble, yet here were impressive figures.
First there was the Shadow Flame King, and now there was a woman in ice armor.
Although the Shadow Flame King was indeed more popular, today perhaps the woman could become more popular because last night she had only killed one Monster Boss while now she was killing multiple monsters.
Oliver checked the internet forums only to find many discussions about his aunt.
From the discussion about the tsunami and then her helpful appearance, there was no way she wouldn't go viral.
People gave her the title of Ice Knight because she wore ice armor.
'Mm, maybe I need to head west a bit,' Oliver thought.
He planned to stick around the walls, but he thought it would be awkward if he got too close to his aunt. Therefore, he chose to go west but still on the north wall.
After all, the wall was tens of kilometers long, so there were many places he could go.
He chose an area that wasn't flooded.
There the wall was in such good condition that the tsunami water didn't make it through.
In terms of infrastructure, it was a very nice area, with many parks and sports fields.
There was also a military base. Perhaps the soldiers Oliver had beaten were from there.
Quietly, he lowered his cube in the artificial forest area.
When he landed, he stretched his body, shrinking the size of his cube.
"Oliver, I should probably get to where the boss is. I need to help fulfill her needs after the fight." Kim Hana suddenly said.
He stared at her, knitting his brows when he heard that.
Somehow he was getting unhappy if she left his side.
After all, he had just given her a lot of help. Couldn't she act like his secretary for a while?
After a moment of staring at her, he replied, "stay with me!"
His tone was like a command, giving her an even sharper glare.
"Oliver, I work for your aunt," the woman replied, somewhat awkwardly.
Perhaps she understood quite well what he was feeling. Hence, she also felt uncomfortable if she had to leave.
The problem was that her boss was not Oliver.
However, she thought Oliver shouldn't mind so much since it was his aunt she was helping, not anyone else.
'Or maybe he's starting to like me more so he's comfortable with me being by his side?'
Kim Hana always had wild speculations and that was her speculation now as he objected to her leaving.
When thinking about it, she felt rather unsure of her reaction. Clearly, this put her in a very pleasant mood.
In the end, some of the nonsense she said like she didn't expect too much from him anymore was just to vent her anger.
In truth, her fondness for him had not diminished in the slightest.
Of course, a woman can get uncomfortable when a man is too aggressive even though it's also something fun sometimes.
It's just that Kim Hana was now thinking about her professionalism as a secretary, so there was a desire to prioritize her work.
Moments after she answered, Oliver suddenly grabbed her hand.
Without saying anything, he pulled her away as he took a step.
Kim Hana's cheeks turned red, speechless at his actions.
She wanted to shake her hand to get him to let go of her hand, but her heart became helpless before she even did so.
In the end, she followed him silently while her heart pounded incessantly.
It was a little rough but still felt very romantic.
They came out of the artificial forest, and Oliver finally let go of her hand, like he was sure she wouldn't leave.
It was now quite crowded in the area as people started arriving with weapons, looking ready to fight.
They scaled the wall while shouting various war chants.
Unfortunately, shock still filled their faces when they saw that the area beyond the wall that was originally land had turned into a sea that was almost as high as the wall itself.
Oliver wasn't planning on climbing up the wall. He looked around and when he found an empty park, he walked over to it.
Kim Hana was a little confused as she followed him, and she almost gasped when she saw Oliver suddenly sitting in a chair next to a large tree.
He leaned his back and head on the chair, looking very relaxed.
However, a moment later he looked up at her.
"I think I'm serious enough to marry you, so how? We need to stop being childish and talk about this seriously."
Kim Hana, "..."
