After the execution, Gideon disappeared and understandably Hiro and Rilu both entered the carriage quietly. What surprised the transmigrator was when the carriage landed, he couldn't even open the door. The reason why nothing could phase the carriage came not from arrays but because of its materials.

The entire frame was made from ores too heavy to use for regular humans. The sky carriages were made to transport beings who survived falls from 3000 meters above the ground. Understandably for them to provide even a bit of protection they needed to be stronger than their occupants.

Only at Level 26, Hiro's stats page now looked like this.

HP: 713/713 |MP: 411/411 |SP: 265/265 |AP: 160/160

STR: 61+7 (20) | AGI: 53+8 (20) | INT: 55+2 (20)

His health and calibers all grew a bit, he learned from grinding that they ran proportional to his base stats, STR drove aura, AGI increased spirit while INT controlled Mana. Each level up gives a system user 5 stats, one to each main stat and two one can freely allocate.

Originally Hiro had below-average AGI, so he concentrated on growing it as much as possible. He placed twenty points of his free points or the equivalent of ten level-ups to his AGI which allowed it to catch up to his other two stats. As his HP depended on STR, he always gave priority to it.

INT only got nine of his free points yet was still his second-highest, his base number remained the biggest factor. Still, like most RPG's the longer this went on the smaller the differences would be.

The plus numbers on the other hand from the Legacy of Vengeance bonus. These were outside the system as they do not increase calibers despite them giving Hiro everything else. The twenty points in brackets were the stats derived from equipment.

The sixty points came solely from [Blade of Mitsurugi] that was how awesome the weapon was. It helped not only Hiro's fighting ability but also his base constitution. Holding a sword increases all the primary stats by 40 for a total of 120 points due to [Steel blades bow down to no one], stacking his realities would cause the bonuses to grow further.

Returning to the carriage, despite having over 78 STR the equivalent of close to 8 times the strength of an average man Hiro couldn't even make the door budge. In this world, considerations for monsters called system users became a way of life.

To keep himself busy, Hiro started to internally formulate plans to fight the target. Rilu knew her demonstration would rattle even the most hardened veterans thus she remained silent and started reading a new book.

Hiro checked his currently armed realities for [Strength Derived from Pride]

Defined Realities:

1. Steel blades bow down to no one

2. My life belongs to them

3. Lonely is the sword

4. I am the fucking G*blin Sl*yer

Reality Rearm available: 2

[Lonely is the sword] didn't trigger as Hiro fought with Rilu. [I am the fucking G*blin Sl*yer] because the enemy wasn't a goblin and My life belongs to them because none of his women were present. His current situation was far from ideal.

While He could change the realities twice, he planned to use them when absolutely needed. Turning one of the realities into a manticore slayer could be a good use. But as he had too little info on the enemy he opted not to do anything drastic. Otherwise, if he made a mistake in rearming he would die a gruesome death.

Minutes passed in silence despite there being two people in the carriage. The young devoted tried to keep to herself. Rilu made it seem like she was forced with Hiro, but the truth was no one wanted to sit with the woman. Due to her status as an authorized Starfall Executioner, no one outside of the spouse ranks associated with her even in her own battle harem.

Adding her zeal when it came to the saviors, the other members of Starfall avoided her like a plague. Other times would learn of her dark history and silently strip her with their eyes. As the girl who begged for sex like a dog in that one blind alley, they all assumed she was crazed for intercourse. Of course, all the people associated with the original incident have already been murde… correction punished by Rhyne.

Hiro knew that building walls with Rilu would work against him. Having someone watch your back, especially those that were powerful would always be preferable. Adding that information-wise Rilu shared her knowledge without malice or judgment. Thus against his decision to stay away, he sought her council once more.

"Rilu, do you have more information on the target? I tend to study the monsters I will face formulating plans and contingencies. All I was told was that the villagers called the beast a dragon due to breathing fire all while it being a manticore."

The woman grew flabbergasted at his questions. In her moment of unbelief, she asked in full seriousness.

"Hiro-sama, why do you still seek to associate with me? I just murdered a lot of people in cold blood. I can be considered a religious fanatic, deranged even, due to my loyalty to my dominator. I am a used woman who got ravaged by hundreds of men. I aborted babies numerous times, murdered my own father, and have no redeeming qualities. Are you alright with all that?"

The transmigrator then took her hands in his and spoke in a solemn voice.

"Riluttante Zhertva, do not demean yourself in such a horrible way. Let me rephrase it for you. You are Rilu, one who once suffered from injustice in the past yet continued to fight against fate, you now wield power capable of saving people and punishing the unjust.

"You are loyal to those you cherish and are merciless to those that deserve to be punished. Due to knowing how hard it is to do the impossible, you value the strength of the saviors and seek to learn as much as you can to get stronger.

"Your redeeming qualities are being studious, devoted, and extremely energetic like a ball of energy. While I do not condone you murdering everyone in that refugee group. I do not hold your skill [Scales of Justice] in contempt.

"I have not walked on your path, as such I have no right to pass judgment on you. Like everyone else you only aimed to survive and to me there is nothing wrong with doing so. Do not crucify yourself for things you have no control over."
