Splitting up with Jewel and Gladius

The day after we eradicated the entire clan that aimed for Gladius, we finally reached a city in Arturo. Though I have to say that we eradicated an entire clan because that clan got me involved for some reason. I mean they took me as a hostage!

Well, even if I didn't get myself involved with the fight, with Jewel alone, they can defeat them all. Though Jewel is so kind to her saviors that she let them fight while Jewel herself never used her full power.

On the way there, the party Gladius showed an interest to join my clan. But this time, I clearly refused them.

"I refuse. You have been a party together. And even after breaking up, you got back together again. And you have quite a reputation as well. If I let you in, you will be our weakest members. I'm sure that you don't have the pride to let that happen. So I will refuse right away."
