" You know your tools, kid... " Miles sarcastically praises as he then shoots at Ragna's other leg which makes Ragna lose his ability to move due to his actual frail limp-like leg.
" Dammit! " Ragna tries to fix his leg armor, trying to do it as fast as he can for him to move freely again.
" Gah! " Ragna was immediately stopped as Miles jumped in front of him.
" How predictable, guess youngsters like you are often easy to fool with, no matter how smart you are... " Miles tells Ragna.
" Dammit! "
" Hey kid, I'm not mocking you here... "
" I'm just saying that an experienced person like me could already see your weakness like miles away... "
" Even with my body turned around, I could immediately end you here and now, look here... " Miles shows his eyes, showing it had a marksman symbol in its iris. One of his Hunter Wisp Gift's skills 'Divine Eyes: Wisp Eyes of the Hunt'.
" But sadly... " Miles turned himself from Ragna, leaving him, and approached the very round stone in which the sword was embedded.
" I finally found you, Divine Sword. "
" At last, with your power, I could finally use you to enhance my already powerful Gift Power, making myself more powerful than that 'Champion of Lord Athena's', that 'Maiden'... "
" I started silently, silently start myself from the C-Rank to raise no suspicion, even fabricated my own Gifter God's name in the first assessment, telling the administrators that my Gifter God is that Tier III Demi-goddess, Atlanta but instead mine is from Artemis, a Tier IV Goddess. "
" Enduring great humiliation due to my rank, joined that treacherous Vulture Guild to finally get the chance to join this stupid plot from the gods and the Hunter Association. " Miles says as he then places his hand on the sword's handle.
" The gods, Hunter Association...? " Ragna asks him.
" That's right, kid..., this whole Raid was a setup to begin with... "
" This year, the gods and the Hunter Association is flooded with those who were positioned in the C and B-Ranks..., an unintended surplus of numbers than last year. "
" Since they couldn't fire us properly, instead they sent us to our doom here knowing Hunters like us wouldn't refuse to Raid more hidden-gem Dungeons like these. "
" Not to blame them since resigning those who died in the Dungeons without the relatives' consent is legal when the Hunter themselves are not part of the higher ranks. "
" It's just business, another day for business, no more no less... " Miles tells it.
" But for me, this Raid is something more... (Miles puts more of his power into his pull), this Raid will give me more power and change my life forever. "
" No longer I will stay in the shadows, for I Miles Ranger, I- " Before Miles could finish it, Miles was immediately attacked by something, something whose blades stabbed Miles from behind.
" No..., no way... " Miles scoffs blood looking at the one who stabs him, he sees a big monster, a big, tall, skinny demonic-like monster, stabbing him from behind.
" Demonic Monster! " Ragna shouts in his surprise for he too didn't see it coming as he still tries to fix his mechanical armor.
