Chapter 23
Meeting Walter by identifying as someone sent by Index posed a bit of a risk. Part of the reason why Jason exposed himself was because he knew the personality of Skyfall’s members as a whole. They were adventure-loving ascenders who didn’t embroil themselves in politics. As for the other reason, it was because Jason held confidence in his strength. He wasn’t strong enough to face Skyfall as a whole, far from it, but provoking him would come at a cost.
Joe led Jason’s group through Skyfall’s town. Not long after, they arrived before a large marble white mansion. It was surrounded by a beautiful garden and protected by a metal fence. The gate at the entrance was wide open. Joe passed through while glancing at Jason with a hint of pride. “What do you think?”
Jason peered around casually before focusing on the mansion. “As expected of Skyfall. You guys have a guild hall so soon.”
Joe smiled brightly at being praised. “Come, the guild master is waiting.”
As they continued, Roy appeared at Jason’s side with an inquiring gaze. “What’s a guild hall?”
Jason sighed inwardly at how much explaining he’d have to do on this floor. Still, he explained nonetheless. “Besides being a symbol of glory, the main benefit a guild hall offers are guild buffs to all members, regardless of their location.”
“Ooh.” Roy’s eyes lit up. He immediately decided that he wanted a guild hall too.
When they entered the mansion, an elderly man wearing a butler’s uniform blocked their way. Surprisingly, he had a level, name, and health bar above his head. He was a resident of the tower.
“Welcome back, my lord.” The butler bowed with his hand across his chest.
“Ah, Bernard.” Joe pointed behind him. “I’m bringing guests to Walter.”
“Greetings.” The butler turned to Jason and nodded respectfully.
Joe led Jason’s group to the second floor before stopping in front of a door made out of brown smoked wood. After several knocks, a voice came from inside the room. “Come in.”
Joe opened the door and gestured for Jason’s group to enter. Jason made his way inside and glanced around. The room was filled with furniture and statues equipped in armor. In front of a square window was a desk. Walter sat there, discussing things with another man. Walter was a middle-aged man wearing light plated armor. He had dark brown hair and blue eyes, a sharp jaw, and large eyebrows. When Jason’s group entered, he stood up with a grin. “Jason, right? I must admit I’ve been anxiously waiting for you! After all, you’re sent by that Index.”
Jason’s gaze paused on the calm youth who had been talking with Walter just a moment earlier. Jason recognized him as his best friend from the alternate timeline, Peter. With a heavy sigh, Jason pushed down a wave of emotions. The Peter before him was a stranger. The one he had known was dead. Still, to see his best friend alive and kicking wasn’t a bad feeling at all.
