When Amon tried to use a little force, a millisecond, the image of a gigantic wolf appeared. It was so fast that Old Hazael who was the only one who saw it thought he hallucinated.
'Have I been affected by something?' He was confused. With his current strength, there were a few things that could influence his mind.
"Are you okay?" Amon asked.
"I..."
But soon, his attention was directed to the girls who were passed out on the floor, ignoring Old Hazael, he went to them.
Old Hazael felt a feeling of loneliness in his chest, he crouched on the ground and began to tell the ants that walked on the ground.
After seeing that the girls were okay, Amon breathed a sigh of relief.
It didn't take long for the girls to wake up.
After explaining what happened, despite the surprise, I was happy at the same time to be able to get stronger, and have a lifetime treasure. Even the link to the lifetime treasure was beyond the initial stage, they could now handle it better than an ordinary weapon. It was as if the weapon coordinated with them, it was quite different from handling an ordinary weapon.
"Amon, you are constantly looking at the ring on your finger, is there any particular reason?" Barbara asked.
"Oh, that." Amon while touching the black tourmaline ring with blue stone. "I got it for my grandparents' birthday, and I felt a little fluctuation from that."
"... When is your birthday?" Thinking back, she had never asked him that.
"Is today," Amon replied neutrally.
"Today?!"
The four girls shouted in unison.
Maisa went to him and grabbed him by the shoulders as he said in an agitated tone, "Why didn't you say that sooner? I haven't prepared anything to give you, we don't even have time to sing happy birthday..."
"Yes, Amon, you should have told us!" Barbara crossed her arms and said while pouting.
"Amon!"
"Amon!"
The girls started pestering him until he finally said something that surprised them: "I only celebrated my birthdays with my grandparents."
"Wait, you didn't have friends on your birthdays?" Julia asked.
"No, just me and my grandparents," Amon replied.
"..."
Old Hazael recovered and chuckled, "Since it's your birthday, consider the gun I made for you as a birthday present."
Amon nodded and thanked, "Thank you."
"Hahaha, I feel a little embarrassed to say, as I've already given it, anyway, happy birthday." Old Hazael said in a laughing voice.
Julia and Maisa whispered.
"What should we do, we haven't prepared any gifts." Julia was nervous.
"I don't know either, maybe a kiss?" Maisa suggested.
"Would that be a gift to him, or to us?" Julia rolled her eyes.
"..."
"Don't think too much, we can still go back to town later and you can buy him something." Old Hazael said with a gentle smile.
He found this scene adorable. This brought back memories of his childhood....
'Wait, I was never popular in my childhood!' Now he was sad and wanted to go back to counting little ants as tears from his sad, unpopular childhood leap into his mind.
While Old Man Hazael was... Recalling the 'good' childhood memories, Julia and the girls were arguing about what to do for Amon.
"Since we kind of made it to today's goal." Old Hazael recovered and told everyone: "Let's go back to the tower and celebrate the kid's birthday, I know if you don't do that, you girls won't be able to progress anyway."
"Hehehe, exactly~" Barbara stuck her tongue out at him in a cute way.
"Hehe." Julia and Maisa laughed in embarrassment.
Ariel strangely just smiled but didn't comment.
'I don't think it's all that important to celebrate my birthday, it's counter-productive especially now that we're in a place with monsters that can serve to strengthen us, but from what Old Hazael said, Ariel and the rest wouldn't be able to fight efficiently. ' These thoughts flashed through Amon's mind in a matter of seconds. After rethinking, he wasn't against going back.
"Alright, let's go back," Amon said in a neutral tone.
He still wore the gloves, he wanted to keep increasing his bond with the item.
The girls also hold their guns, this was something Old Hazael recommended doing, as it would take some time before they reached the teleport to go back to the tower.
Crossing her arm over Amon's left arm, Barbara smiled boldly as her scarlet red hair fluttered in the wind. Seeing him look at her, she laughed and said, "Hehehe, happy birthday Amon, I love you!"
She kissed his face.
She just didn't dare kiss his lips because bold as she was, Old Hazael was with them, it would be weird to do something even more intimate in front of an elder.
"Is not fair!" Maisa took the other arm, and kissed the other side of Amon's cheek: "Happy birthday, Amon..." She was quite red but still held his arm.
"Are they hurt?" Amon asked.
"Is this serious?!?"
In unison, the girls screamed.
To the girls' surprise, Amon smiled a little. Even a slight sound of laughter left his lips as he said, "No, I was kidding."
"…" Maisa.
"…" Julia.
"..." Barbarian.
"Hehehe~" Ariel let out a weird giggle.
Old Hazael just smiled but didn't comment. In part, he knew there was a reason Amon didn't show expressions easily and was always indifferent. And the fact that he does that now, proves that he cares a lot about these girls.
Initially, Old Man Hazael was going to suggest going back faster, using an airship, but after seeing them chatting and having fun, he dropped the idea.
The way back was smooth, nothing very surprising happened. Although small animals were sighted, monsters avoided them because of Old Hazael's aura that released a bit, thus scaring the monsters away from getting close.
