“Well, hmm...but, if you still insist on fighting me after suffering all this...let’s set some prerequisites.”

“Prerequisites...?!’ repeated Arnold.

I wasn’t really in a position to set conditions, but it seemed like this could work somehow.

Putting on a very serious face, I looked at the members of Falling Fog, who were down on their limbs.

Boldly, I said, “I’m the master of First Steps. It’d be nonsensical to fight the boss right out of the gate. So if you would like to fight me, there should be stages you have to clear first. Got it? If you want to exchange blows with me, then I shall have you first defeat the key parties that form our clan: Obsidian Cross, Starlight, Ark Brave, and Knights of the Torch! Once you’ve accomplished that, then, sure, I shall consider fighting you fair and square too.”

And before Arnold and his crew, who were still stuck to the ground, could revive, I took Tino’s hand and fled the scene.

I was weak. But weak as I was, I was a Level 8. I’d been a Hunter for five years now, and I’d come to understand hooligans’ personalities to some extent: they were strong and valiant, they cared naught about the inconvenience they caused to their surroundings, and most importantly, and they loved challenging hardship.

We returned to the alley, and when Arnold and his Lackeys were finally out of sight, Tino timidly asked me, “Um, M-Master... Are you sure that was a good idea...?”

“It was. More importantly, are you all right?”

“Y-Yes, I’m fine, Master. B-But...I’m sorry that I didn’t live up to your expectations.”

“Oh, don’t stress yourself about it. It was just me misjudging the situation...”

You know, I can’t really tell the difference when people get stronger than a certain level...

I could still tell the difference in strength between Liz and Tino, but I couldn’t really tell when it came to opponents like we had this time, especially since they were of different classes.

It was so cunning of him to hold back like that to appear like he was losing!

Tino hesitated for a moment, then tightly pressed her lips together as if holding back tears.

Is she upset at her foolish Master?

All things considered, while Arnold might be the root of the evil, I was disappointed in Sven for abandoning his comrades. Well, he didn’t have an obligation to stick around...but I’d appreciate it if he’d not torment our Tino here.

“Don’t worry, Sven will be happy to fight...”

No matter how one sliced it, he’d left me, his clan master, there helpless on my own. I was sure he’d be fine with getting the short end of the stick, probably.

Our clan was super talented. Even if Arnold was a Level 7, there was no way he could reach me.

“Everyone in Ark Brave and Starlight is strong and bloodthirsty. If anything, they’d be glad for the opportunity to prove their strengths...probably.”

As I remarked thoughtlessly, Tino blinked her eyes repeatedly and said with a somewhat dejected expression, “But, Master...Isn’t the party you mentioned last, Knights of the Torch, on a long-term expedition? Aren’t they not in the capital.
