Chapter 25
After the encounter with Fischl ended.
Os and Korra hurried back to town.
Os was afraid that he would accidentally encounter another dangerous existence similar to Fischl.
Although in his previous life, if there was a chance to meet the original god character in reality, Os would naturally be eager for it. But unfortunately, the current Os has no intention of doing so at all.
For the current Os, meeting the original god character means risk.
The opponent is a powerful existence that can get rid of him in a minute.
And he happened to be a "treasure thief group" who was often beaten as a wild monster in the game.
After pulling Korra back to town safely, Os breathed a sigh of relief.
"Um, is this all for today, Brother Os?"
And Korra, who was standing aside, asked with a tone of lingering regret.
After all, Korra had just grasped the feeling of using the Eye of God when he was pulled back by Os.
Korra didn't know that Os was hiding from Fischl.
"Well... Anyway, we don't have any missions recently, so we have plenty of time. There's no need to rush. I can come with you to train tomorrow."
"Really?"
Korra was naturally very happy after hearing Os say that.
"Of course..."
Seeing Korra so happy, Os just thought that Korra was happy because she could continue to get stronger.
He didn't realize that Korra was happy because she could train with Os.
However, it was hard for Os to imagine this.
Os could never realize that his importance in Korra's mind was completely beyond his imagination.
"By the way, Brother Os?"
"What's wrong?"
"You obviously don't have the Eye of God, why are you so familiar with how to use the Eye of God?"
Korra asked puzzledly while recalling the scene of Os teaching her how to use the Eye of God.
Korra really couldn't understand why Os, who was just an ordinary person, was so familiar with the Eye of God.
Not only did he know how to use the Eye of God, he even knew that the Eye of God would return to its owner by itself.
This was something that normal people couldn't easily know.
"This... of course depends on imagination and experience!"
"Imagination and experience?"
"Yes, Korra, what you lack is imagination. It's because of your lack of imagination that you only think that the wind can only blow."
"So that's it, I understand. I will try my best!"
"..."
After seeing Korra believe in him so easily again, Os became more and more worried, wondering if Korra would be deceived by others.
Of course, Os couldn't know that Korra was not someone who was easily deceived.
The only person Korra believed in from beginning to end was Os.
In this way, the two returned to the house prepared for them by the "Treasure Stealing Group".
The moment Os opened the door, the person who appeared in Os's sight was Mako, who had not been to this place for several days.
"?"
Kora looked at Mako, somewhat puzzled. She had no idea what she was doing here.
Of course, Os had some bad premonitions.
He had just met Fischl, and now Mako came to him.
It was hard for Os not to think that there was some connection between the two things.
Mako also showed a disgusted expression after seeing Os.
If it wasn't necessary, Mako really didn't plan to meet Os.
But this time, because it was the boss's order.
She had to meet Os, the person she hated.
Hawke looked a little overwhelmed.
When Mako came to him, the two most important people in Os and Kora's team were not there.
It was really difficult for Hawke to let a straightforward person like Hawke be alone with a high-handed woman like Mako.
In order to prevent himself from accidentally angering Mako.
Before Os and Cora came back, Hawke remained silent and didn't say a word.
Hawke was relieved when he saw the two of them coming back.
After all, Hawke finally didn't have to be alone with Mako.
"What are you doing here?"
Os said as he sat opposite Mako.
Because of Cora, Os's team no longer belonged to Mako.
This made Os no longer need to be respectful to Mako as in the past.
"The boss's mission."
"...Is it finally here? What mission?"
Os had no idea what the mission of the "Treasure Stealing Group" boss was.
This was the first time that Oss accepted the boss's direct order.
In the past, he had been carrying out some small, sneaky tasks under Mako's command.
The only relatively large task was the last time he sneaked into Mondstadt.
"Originally, the boss didn't intend to bother you to deal with this problem. However, the Adventurer's Association was too aggressive. We had to send the holder of the Eye of God to deal with them."
"... Adventurer's Association."
After hearing these five words, Oss was more certain that Mako's visit to him and his group this time was definitely related to Fischl.
"So what's the matter?"
"In short, the Adventurer's Association sent someone to investigate our organization. I heard that it was a girl with the Thunder God's Eye."
"What does the boss mean?"
"The boss asked you to find a way to deal with that girl."
(Are you kidding...)
Oss imagined the scene of his group fighting with Fischl.
There was only one ending: the whole group was wiped out.
And if possible, Oss didn't have any hope of fighting Fischl.
In his previous life, Oss still liked the character of Fischl very much.
"Has our headquarters been exposed?"
"At present, not yet. The Adventurer's Association just sent her to investigate. After the investigation is clear, they will report to the Knights of Favonius to deal with us. Now we don't have the means and strength to fight against the Knights of Favonius, so we can only make a move on that girl."
"You mean, our mission is not to deal with that girl, but to get that girl out of our headquarters, which is not nearby?"
"...You can say that."
"...Okay, I'll find a way."
"Really?"
Seeing that Oss, who has always been greedy for life and afraid of death, agreed so easily, Ma Ke was a little scared.
"What's wrong? Are you planning to change someone else to carry out the mission?"
"No, of course not."
"That's good, right? Don't worry, I'll find a way to solve this problem."
Although if they go head-to-head, Os and his team will never be a match for Fischl.
But if the goal is not to defeat Fischl.
But to make Fischl conclude that the headquarters is not near this town, there is still a way to do it.
Of course, if they fail, Os will most likely run away with Cora and Hawke. Os doesn't intend to live and die with this "treasure thief group" organization.
