Departure. (End of Volume-2.)

At the outer edge of the Oort Cloud.

The corpse of some huge centipede floated in space with no destination whatsoever. The corpse was missing its head, it was likely killed by someone who smashed the head of the centipede into smithereens.

The corpse of the centipede alone is so huge that it looks like a small meteor from a distance. (For comparison, this centipede is more than 700 kilometers in length alone….)

The creature of this size is usually only found in SS-rank dungeons, only SS-rankers dare to fight such insanely gigantic monsters.

Above the dead corpse of the centipede, two individuals sat on chairs around a small table.

They both had solemn looks as they continued to play chess which was laid on the table's top.

"Hmm, your chess skills are indeed good, I have yet to win a single match against you, Aria, the most I got was a draw…" (???)
