He realized that those standing before him were the ones who would give their all to become god but couldnât, and said with a slightly apologetic look on his face.
âSorry, that came out without thinking.â
âHaha, no. I didnât mean to say it like that.â
Fielder gently smiled to relieve the tension of Vulcan, and Vulcan too could unload a bit of a weight from his mind.
In that warm ambience, Berner interjected.
âBut didnât you say that you were the only one who could protect Earth? I thought you said you would leave instantly if it hadnât for thatâŚâŚwhat happened to that?
âYes, you said that on EarthâŚ..monsters equivalent to about player level 200 sometimes show up. Isnât it quite powerful without you, something that could be called the apocalypse?
Everyone again stared as Berner and Polken asked.
Vulcan has been a person who has been building strength and striving for others, such as his family, acquaintances, and world, rather than moving for his own self-interest since a long time ago.
It was not easy to think that he would leave to Act 3 without considering the curse of the ë§ě.
As they expected, Vulcan had all prepared for the situation after he left.
He gently smiled then opened his mouth.
âIâve trained my successor well.â
âHaha, sure. Well, of courseâŚwhen someone similar to god is directly trainingâŚ.your successor should be able to easily take care of entrance of a second-class monster.â
âYes. As long as that successor doesnât come to Asgard⌠it doesnât seem like a bad idea.â
âWell, most times they come after enjoying everything that is offered in the Lower World, so we donât really have to worry about that, do we?
âThat makes sense.â
As 6 zones each said some words after hearing what Vulcan said, Madorgi abruptly asked a question.
âSo, how good is your trainee?â
His question got everyoneâs attention, and they stopped talking to look at Vulcanâs face.
They knew that Vulcan had abilities and talent beyond imagination.
But to learn and teach is definitely something different.
They were trying to determine how talented Vulcan is at teaching by getting to know how good his trainee is.
Eventually Vulcan opened his mouth to talk, to which everyone was shocked in awe to hear.
âHe could take care of Act 1, I guess.â
ââŚâŚ.â
âOh, itâs obviously not because Iâm a good teacher. He is just naturally talentedâŚâŚ.â
He noticed that something was strange, so he quickly added an excuse.
But it was not a light content to be able to be covered with a sentence of excuse.
Fielder, still with a puzzled look on his face, tried hard to ask a question.
âAs far as I knowâŚ..you returned here in 50 years, which is 10 years in Earthâs timeâŚ.only during that timeâŚ.you were able to raise his level up to be capable of clearing Act 1?
âWellâŚ..yes, itâs true, but as I mentioned before, itâs not because Iâm a good teacher.â
âThen how did you find such a good trainee? He must have a talent that cannot be easily found in one Lower WorldâŚ..no, the whole of Lower WorldâŚâŚâ
He was not enough compared to Vulcan.
After all, he was a monster who got through Act 1 in 5 years.
But, just because he was not as good as Vulcan, his talent was not something to be looked down on.
After all, that trainee wouldnât have had any help from the system.
âHaha, an abnormal being continuously appearing from EarthâŚâŚ it sure is an unknown placeâŚâŚ.â
Vulcan agreed to his words to a certain extent.
His trainee surely was the most talented person on Earth, who he found by publishing âLooking for a traineeâ advertisement globally, butâŚ..
âI also didnât know there was a human being with the best potentialâŚâŚâ
Vulcan observed 7 administrators, including Fielder, with his scanning ability.
With the system window that can figure out more details than ever before, and potential index.
The system had an ungenerous evaluation, as only Fielder had âhighâ level, and others had âmid-highâ levels.
Even the previously confirmed potential of the Blue Dragon Blue Wind remained in the âhigh,â so that we could see enough without deep consideration how great it was that humans had the potential of the âbest.â
As Berner said, he was an abnormal being.
Of course, he wasnât uncomfortable just because his trainee was an abnormal being.
Rather, since he learned so fast, it was very comfortable and entertaining for him to teach, which made him teach more things than planned.
So he thought about spending a little more summer time with the trainee, but Vulcan eventually let go of the thought.
At first, he was not sure, but now he was certain.
He was no longer just a person of Earth, who tried to avoid the unnecessary fights.
He could no longer suppress the feeling that he wanted to seek stronger power, and go to the place where stronger people are.
âIt would have been better if I didnât know Act 3 existâŚ..I cannot help myself but go if there is one.â
When someone quits even in the middle of the game, it feels bad, so he couldnât give up here.
He was sick and tired of fighting for the world, for the protection of others.
âNow all thatâŚâŚ I can leave it to my trainee.â
Vulcan smiled, thinking about his trainee who would be playing the role of a hero instead of him.
Then he said to the administrators of Belrung City, including Fielder.
âAnyway thatâs that, you will not be seeing me for a while.â

When Vulcan was determined to move up to Act 3.
There was someone with a few steps forward, facing Hoculus.
Someone who was crossing the crushed Gate of Test with light laughter.
A face of an old man, and a highly developed muscle that does not fit in with it.
Above all, the ugly face that was stuck near his pit of the stomach was very impressive.
It would better to think that he is a monster, not a resident of Act 2.
The old man with terrible appearance stared at Hoculus, and opened his mouth to talk.
