After the battle, Adam looked for Felix.
("...Where is he? I've been searching for fifteen minutes!") [Adam]
He searched the exit of the arena, but his friend was nowhere to be found.
"Maybe he's getting his injuries treated?" [Krino]
("Could be. I'll look around a bit more.") [Adam]
Adam went looking for another fifteen minutes until he spotted Felix.
"There you are!" [Adam]
Approaching his friend, he could see a few bandages here and there.
"Huh? What are you doing here?" [Felix]
"I was looking for you." [Adam]
"Uh-huh… Cool, but I have something important to tell you." [Felix]
Adam raised a brow.
"And that would be?" [Adam]
"I got called over after my match. Turns out military attendance is getting pushed forward." [Felix]
Hearing that, Adam assumed the old man tried recruiting Felix.
"You got called too?" [Adam]
"Too? You got scouted as well?" [Felix]
Adam nodded.
"Yeah. An old man recruited me." [Adam]
Felix put on a confused expression.
"Old man? How old was he? I met with a guy who looked to be in his forties." [Felix]
"What?" [Adam]
Adam and Felix stared at each other.
"I think we got recruited by different guys." [Adam]
"What a coincidence. I do as well." [Felix]
"...What did you get for your contract?" [Adam]
Felix pulled out his phone and tapped away.
"It's a pretty long list actually." [Felix]
"What?! Let me see!" [Adam]
Stepping to Felix's side, he took a peek.
"Insurance… money… wait, is the rest of the list equipment?" [Adam]
"Yep." [Felix]
Scrolling through text, Adam saw tons of random electrical items.
"What are you even going to do with all this?" [Adam]
"I'm planning on making armor or something." [Felix]
"Armor?" [Adam]
Felix pointed at his bandages.
"I don't want to have to get patched up everytime I get in a fight." [Felix]
"Oh…" [Adam]
He had completely forgotten the concept of armor.
"It's no surprise. It's pretty hard to hurt you." [Krino]
("Plus I can get armor from soul aggression.") [Adam]
"You can use soul aggression?" [Astos]
"...You didn't know that?" [Krino]
The question threw Krino off.
"As I've said before, gods are not omniscient." [Astos]
"Yeah, but can't you just look through Adam's memory?" [Krino]
"I have no such ability." [Astos]
"What kind of god are you?" [Krino]
"The god of chaos." [Astos]
Adam then heard Krino laugh.
"You have a really intimidating title for someone in such a situation." [Krino]
Hearing that, Adam quickly ignored them as he could feel an impending argument.
"So, what did you get?" [Felix]
"Money. Oh, plus some boosters." [Adam]
"Just that?" [Felix]
Adam considered telling him about his deal that included Tiffany, but he thought Felix would make fun of him.
"Yeah." [Adam]
"Oookay… So do you want to hand me a booster?" [Felix]
"No? Unless you share some of your stuff with me." [Adam]
"...Do you want an MDE?" [Felix]
Recalling how his last one went, Adam refused.
"Nah. It'll break." [Adam]
"Suit yourself." [Felix]
Ending it with a shrug, Felix slapped him on the back.
"Let's go back. We've gotta tell the others about the military attendance." [Felix]
"...Right." [Adam]
Walking alongside him, Adam felt like he was missing something.
"What did I want to talk to Felix about?" [Adam]
