"Name… I think it's a meaningless name now."

"What do you mean?"

"I think they used a fake name back then… We got played this badly."

Hiro wasn't naive after going through floors. He learned a lot of adventurer life and how the world worked, so proper research was done before his family could join this party. He spoke with a lot of people and even got records of this party's missions.

Everything looked legit and Hiro was feeling glad that such powerful people were willing to take him in and help him get stronger.

Hiro also felt like too much research and waiting would displeasure his future teammates, so with all feelings mixed like that, Hiro and his family decided to try this party.

"Their name was Log Revived… I heard a lot about them and then after this incident happened and I got laughed straight to face by them, the rumors and all records dispersed like nothing… And those people disappeared along with these… That's why I believe we just got played… All this work to just... "

It was hard for Hiro to speak further, his whole body trembling as his eyes glued to the ground. He couldn't face anyone, but Kyoya patted his shoulder.

More and more features began to swarm Hiro's eyes now that he became the player too! He couldn't believe any of those quests as it sounded unreal.

"We have potential. And you can believe me when I say that you are one of the most potential adventurers. This game power will help you unlock this potential. But for now, we have to rest and properly get to know each other. Oh, is this the place you spoke about?"

"Yes… This is hidden underground."

"Do you have a problem?"

Xaya asked the lady who kept taking glances at her. She was annoyed by these as various emotions flashed through the lady's eyes each time she took a glance. That was why Xaya just asked her bluntly.

It was one of Hiro's wives, a blonde woman and his summoner named Leena. She stood next to her sister and this very sister got a little angry at Xaya's wording.

It was true that a yandere wife could've asked differently and more nicely, but they were literally foreigners right now.

"Please, forgive her! We are in a little uncomfortable situation!"

Xiaoxiao chimed in, her eyes hinting that Xaya was bothered by the lack of her arm which was not that far off the truth. Nonetheless, it worked as it was an exchange between women and so everyone understood.

The sister apologized, then whispered something to Leena.

Soon, this blonde woman turned her eyes to Xaya, "Could you help me become a strong woman?"

"I already have one disciple."

"I see… Sorry."

Leena was the woman that Hiro spoke about with Kyoya. Ever since that incident, she had many thoughts swarming her mind and she often found it hard to function. She was doing her best to make sure that Hiro was not worried at all and now she finally got some time to herself.

This time was shared with a yandere wife who in the past could make every man scared with her eyes alone. It was just a small encounter yet Leena remembered Xaya's early days very well.

She yearned for something similar and wanted to properly step on her feet yet again.

"You don't have to be sorry at all."

Xiaoxiao tried to help Leena, but even she could see that the blonde woman was going through something very serious. It was hard to replace words, but Xiaoxiao managed to help Leena muster her courage.

"If you didn't ask, then you would keep thinking about this question and be bothered by it for a long time. It's better to speak what lies in your heart!"

"...Yes."

Leena turned her eyes to Xaya with new will within.

It was a change that needed some time, but before everyone could arrive in their underground base, Leena wanted to speak with Xaya. Otherwise, her husband would probably keep an eye on them and be very careful as Xaya in the past didn't hold back with her words.

"I would hate this world if it weren't for my husband and sisters. No… I would be long gone from this disgusting place. My soul would hunt these bastards who hurt me."

"Hurt you?"

"But Hiro's hand always held me when I had the worst within my heart. For him, I want to get stronger, return to my old self and become even stronger, then become the mother of his children."

"..."

"Please, help me get stronger."

"Sister…"

It was just one impression in the low world, but Xaya's former image couldn't be mistaken. She was a strong and powerful woman that turned lovey-dovey for her husband alone. Only her loved one could see love and her weak side while others could only get scared of her.

This image caused Leena to open herself with Xiaoxiao's additional push.

Wondering what this woman exactly went through to speak like that, Xaya turned her eyes in the direction where the husband was. He was speaking with Hiro and something must've happened as both of them stopped.

Soon, Kyoya's disbelief and anger reached Xaya's heart…

"What's your name?"

"Leena."

"Follow me to my husband."

Leena got stopped before she could follow Xaya. It was her sister who was overly worried about her, but the blonde lady just smiled faintly while being ready to give it a try! She shook off her sister's hand, then whispered, "Hiro has also opened himself… Just look at his face."

That was why the sister stopped and just nodded.

Soon enough, Xaya and Leena approached their husbands.

"Husband, game card."

"I see."

Kyoya didn't think much and just passed the disciple card. It was power that was mixed with death god and his trickster, but things began to take a different route now that Xaya grasped this card.

She was trying to make her 'own' disciple card even though her Deathbringer was just a path, not any divine power.

Both Kyoya and Akaro were surprised by that, but only the husband laughed and cheered his wife on.

As for Hiro, he approached his wife, "Leena… How do you feel?"

She was alone with foreign woman, so Hiro got rid of his sulken mood and immediately spoke as brightly as possible. He also mentioned about joining the party the moment his wife confirmed she was okay.

"We can try… join another party… Right?"

"..."

Hiro asked softly, but he quickly found out that his wife wasn't trembling while he mentioned the party. He looked into her eyes and found nothing more but will to change their poor situation and get stronger!

It was inevitable, but Hiro began to cry.

"Why are you crying, you donkey…"

"Because I am happy… So happy..."
