What He Feared

Arthur was not planning on meeting Mistletoe before he found a way to know what happened in the past. Oriole was not Sier who could see everything but a powerless student in this world. There was very little he could know about Arthur's secret dealings with one of the most notorious thieves in the world.

However, he came across them now, and he could not act as if he did not see them. These ruins were too vital for him, as they might be his clue to find Diana in this world or her reincarnation. Therefore, Arthur did not fear confrontation with his friends.

"I would never let anything happen to Ivy," said Arthur with a frown. "I won't bat an eye if Zas or William died, but Ivy is the first person to save me, and I was planning on rushing toward the Ilios Empire after this."

"That is a relief to hear," barked Zas from behind his crow mask.
