Chapter 2 - Chapter 2: The Fantasy world is now modern

"It is confirmed! The S-class party 'Ladies in red' completed yet another dungeon!"

"Another achievement for the all-girl S-class party. We are currently waiting for their return and—"

"Here we are at the place a new dungeon had appeared three days ago, several adventurers had made attempt at finishing the dungeon but—"

"L-look! Everyone! A portal is opening!" In the Laura Forest, the unnatural clicking sound of cameras resonated the place.

Reporters and cameramen all observed as the red portal gradually opened up.

"And as you can see, the members of the party are safely coming out." The camera then shifted to the portal. "The first coming out is Tina Wright, an S-class knight who is the foundation of the party. Though she's the oldest in the party, she's only twenty-three years old."

Tina exited the portal with a tired look. She sighed, and said something, before stretching her body.

"The next one is Miyuki Ando, she's originally from the east and her reason to be here is unknown. But that doesn't change the fact that she's also an S-class Miko, a subclass of the wizard job. She's also eighteen years old and rumored to be still in college."

Now it was Miyuki who came out. She also appeared worn-out but she kept the same manners she usually had. Miyuki had a faint smile, looking at the camera around her, before speaking to Tina about something.

"And finally, the last one. She is the youngest S-class party leader in history. Rosie Amerman, the frontline of the party. With her job as a magic-swordsman, she can dish out a devastating attack in a matter of seconds. Her face is plastered all over the city as she's also an idol."

"Please look here!"

"Can we have some words!?"

"What can you say about the dungeon!?"

"I love you, Miyuki-chan!"

And such was the chaotic nature of media as they fought amongst themselves. Usually, the portal would close after all members got out but… What exactly was happening here?

From the portal, one final person appeared. Covered in full metal armor, standing at seven-foot tall. Everyone looked up at the knight… Was it a monster!?

Everyone was quiet, some even took a step back.

"So, these are the parasites that you are speaking off?" The armor let out an almost growling tone, a voice befitting to a man big as him.

"Aurelius!" Rosie shouted.

Wait, wait, wait, who is this man? Was the thought of every reporter and journalist in the vicinity.

The man stride fearlessly to the camera, crushing everything unlucky enough under his foot. He stopped, then inspected the cameras.

"What is this thing?"

"Ah!" Perhaps it was too much, the cameraman fell on his back—still focusing his camera on Aurelius, such professionalism.

"Oh? Are you alright, sir?" The giant knight offered a hand, but none was brave enough to grab it. "I see… You must be all scared. I am a human; I meant no harm."

His hand reached for his helmet and—

"Stop him!" In an instant, Rosie stopped Aurelius' arm. "Don't take your helmet! Don't create unnecessary drama!"

"What do you mean? I only wish for them to see my true self."

"It will only bring more problems! Trust me! I work in that sh*thole!" Rosie pleaded.

Although Rosie was known as being this headstrong lady, leading a famous party, she was never once seen in a desperate situation such as this.

While everyone was busy observing the two, there was a recognizable sound above, a helicopter. And not just any other helicopter, a military-grade with the beefy look and strong propeller.

"Finally," Tina whispered under her breath. This helicopter was their service but usually, they were fine with just a car. But I don't think that a car is useful here.

She glanced at Aurelius, the mysterious knight they found in the dungeon. Rosie was still talking to her in a pleading manner—very far from what she usually was.

I can't blame her, though. She thought. Even without fighting him, they could tell that Aurelius was strong. It was a good thing that their encounter didn't end in a fight because they surely wouldn't survive.

They watched as the helicopter blew everything below.

"Let's go," Tina said to nothing in particular. Despite the loudness of the helicopter, and the softness of her voice, Aurelius glanced at her and nodded, however, no one noticed that.

"What is this thing? I am very curious." When Aurelius arrived inside the helicopter, he was worried that it couldn't handle his weight but that was not the case.

Unlike the carriage and another vehicle of the old, this one was made with pure steel. How in the world could this thing fly? He thought.

The engine got louder again and little by little, the helicopter moved up until it reached the sky.

In all honesty, he was quite nervous, but seeing how the maiden around him didn't utter a single complaint, he swallowed what he wanted to say.
