============

This was my first time seeing my quiet skill that didn't even say much after seeing the scythe my grandfather gifted me act like this.

Not only it was praising this bottle of potion highly but it also said to thank the one who made this.

I had no words to express my gratitude to this special person I met by chance in this forest but now I was glad I met him.

It has been a long time since I and my grandma came back from that dungeon.

There were no signs at that time and I knew there was nothing that would go wrong if she was with me.

It was just a fluke of luck that I found that unknown dungeon in the forest near our estate and grandma and I had cleared all the monsters inside it at that time.

It was just like a normal fun day for us, and that dungeon didn't even have a guardian monster that guarded the other side.

There was also nothing special about the monsters at that place and we just came back after that.

After some time, when grandma started feeling different, we even send squads to that place to find out if something was wrong, but they found nothing.

Maybe what Eon said was true, and it was my mistake that I took her there.

My skill had never reacted the way it did with Eon and even though it didn't work on Zoe at all, with Eon, I felt like my eyes had tried to see something my mind would never be able to fathom.

It was some strange mental barrier that can block the skill I was born with and there should be nothing I couldn't appraise.

My eyes have at least given me some, at least one, detail about them before, but with him, it was truly something else.

He was stronger than me, not by pure stats and power, but in overall strength.

His magic power and intelligence were higher than mine, someone who has lived for more than him and had overwhelming resources.

It was truly awesome just how he can avoid giving away crucial information, but there were many things I liked about him.

From his absolutely gorgeous appearance to the way he carried himself out to the beautiful blush he would hardly make.

It's only been some hours since our meeting but, he would be one of the few people who knew that much about me.

I wasn't a fool in any way, but I couldn't help but tell him more about myself.

This bastard... he was more experienced in that field than me.

They always talked about just how special this hero child that saved his parents from the national tragedy some years ago was, but after that... he had vanished.

From the rumors, it was said that he was killed by a demon after being teleported to some distant forest and his family used absurd resources to find him.

In that process, his parents became prominent figures in the empire and the name (One-eyed hunter) and (Golden demoness) became famous throughout the empire.

And with their name the name hero Axion became so famous that over the past years, many families in commoners, and even some lower nobles named their newborn Axion.

Being written as a hero without wanting was quite something but, it was just a ploy of the throne to redirect everyone's attention from that incident.

His name was sacrificed for the 'greater good' shit they talked about and the accident where countless lives were lost was buried in history.

Not many know exactly what happened that day but... that shit was bigger than anyone can think.

But then, new rumors that the great young hero was found after a long time or he has made contact with his family started surging.

No one knew if those things were true or not but, after meeting the strong boy with gold-like hair and ruby-like eyes, I could say those rumors of his death were shit.

He was more than just alive... this bastard was fucking strong.

From his mind-blowing archery to his unique way to use his spear-like arrow that was at least the same level as my scythe.

He was a special person and how we both had similar mental maturity, I knew he had been trained like no other.

It didn't take a genius to tell this person was not a normal, twelve or so-year-old boy.

His strength had far surpassed humans and he had neither the smell nor the aura of a human.

The mastery of his weapon and the deep understanding he had were so thorough I felt like whoever taught him, engraved everything into his entire body and soul.

I knew master Zahavi and there was no way he would use this kind of training method.

And in this empire, I didn't know if there was someone who had a such deep understanding of weapons that they could use methods like this.

And he was even more amazing to have learned from such brutal methods.

My eyes that worked on everything didn't work on him while his eyes, his marvelous eyes saw my status window like it was no big deal.

I was a witch, a far older one in actual age.

My mental barrier skill [Old Magic] was some of the strongest skills I had and it was a (Indigo) ranked skill if anything.

Though there were many uses of that skill, blocking appraisal skills was one of its functions.

And this bastard... his skill saw not only my stats but my whole status window and my age and race.

And he was so natural after seeing that age that he seemed to have seen someone of thousands of years old.

Though the average lifespan of those possessing higher energy was naturally more than a hundred years, it should still be a little surprising to see a hotty like me being so old, right?

My natural charm should be more than him but, it actually wasn't.

So... this boy was more charming than an old hag like me?

...for real?

And he wasn't affected by my charm at all like I was 'just' beautiful in his eyes.

Though he was blunt and... weird to say my name was beautiful, he never said something like that about my face or body.

I accept that he was hot, like... mouth-watering hot and I wanted to see that strong body that held me without those thick clothes but, I wasn't attracted to him.

Nope. I wasn't.

Not one bit.

There was no way I would fall for a child I had met for the first time and talked to for just a few hours.

Nope. Never. Not possible.

That one wasn't happening.

Well, yes. That wasn't happening.

We weren't some novel protagonists in our first scene together that many people had longed to see.

Those childish stories should end there.

This was real and I knew it.

It was my mistake my grandmother was in that state and I will tell them everything, go back to the place that damn evil spirit is hiding and kill it with my own two hands.

But I was thankful for this surprisingly sharp one with knowledge even I didn't know of.

To understand a language of hundreds of years ago and have made something like this miraculous cure that can cure curses like this one and far more...

If I could, I wanted to be with this guy some more, but I knew we will have to go out of this forest that brought us together.

I was here to find those rare ingredients but now, there was no need for anything, not even the teddy that played with me.

It was fun, and he did well, being my playmate.

Now that he was just standing there for hours, glaring at us angrily without even being able to move, I felt bad for him. So…

-Snap!

I snapped and my chains crushed his whole being as a fountain of blood rained down on the surrounding area.

Well.. rest in peace, little teddy.

Thankfully, we were some distance away, so we were fine and this bastard was just a 'bit' surprised at this fabulous instant kill skill of mine.

Was he so powerful that killing a teddy like that one like that would be a piece of cake for him?

Like, he was bothered by my 'alluring' loud voice but just a 'bit' surprised by that display of strength that took almost half of my Mana to pull off?

This freaking monster bastard.

We had talked for a while now, and now everything was cleared up... for now.

We were now going to go back to the town. I will show him around, and then when these guys that had lived under a rock all their lives are fulfilled with things around, I will go back home.

And he was going to come with me.
