Chapter 101: Chapter 101 - Reward
Darius blinked a few times as he finally heard the voice in the back of his mind.
Finally, Fleur had told the truth. Darius was finally going to know about his reward from completing the quest. He actually couldn't wait to figure out what it was as he removed his attention from Fleur instantly, completely focusing on the voice in the back of his mind.
-Beep!
[Congratulation! You have completed the quest.]
[The reward for the Quest will only be given once you are completely alone without anyone seeing you.]
'When I'm completely alone? Can't you give it to me right now?' Darius asked, the voice in his mind.
However, he didn't get an answer out of her, only pure silence.
He gritted his teeth, but he quickly understood what he needed to do.
He needed to get rid of the two girls sitting next to him and go back to his hotel room as fast as possible. He didn't want to waste any more time with those two.
"Darius? Are you still here?" Fleur asked when she noticed his lackluster reaction. She had expected him to be mind-blown over the reveal. However, there was nothing. He didn't move a single inch.
Hell, Darius didn't have the slightest reaction since he had diverted his attention to the voice in the back of his mind.
'Are you also a God?' Darius asked, the voice in his mind. 'Well, a Goddess by the sound of your voice.'
Darius ignored Fleur as he continued to question the voice in his mind once more.
-Beep!
[You'll know soon enough.]

It was a vague answer, but Darius didn't mind it. After all, he had already noticed that the voice wasn't that interested in revealing information about herself, and even if he were to ask again… Darius would be given the silent treatment, that's all.
With that answer being given to him, Darius turned his head toward Fleur with a sigh.
"Ah…what did you say?"
"That the name of the God who helped me is Vigoros."
"Ah, yeah. I heard that."
She frowned. "That's it?"
"Well, yeah. I got what I wanted, so thank you."
Fleur looked toward her sister, who still hadn't said a word because of how far-fetched this entire situation was in the first place. After all, this whole thing was extremely weird for multiple reasons.
The first one was that her sister had just said that a God was helping her become better at soccer.
How crazy is that?
Then, the next thing that was even more crazy was the fact that Darius believed all of it in an instant, not even doubting anything about it.
There were a lot more weird things from Darius' touching and those types of things. However, Anna wasn't sure what to say anymore.
"Uh… Darius, if you don't mind. Could you leave me alone with my sister tonight? I have some questions for her."
Darius just smiled as he was met with such a golden opportunity. He could go back to the hotel and discover what his reward was about to be. He didn't have to get dinner with those two for the time being.
In fact, after learning that Fleur had a God helping her, Darius decided to discard her completely as a potential recruit, and it was the same with Anna, with who he wouldn't ask for help anymore.
Darius would just have to find a new scout in the future as he didn't want to get close to someone who had potentially the same resources as him. It would just make things harder to hide from others, especially from Fleur, who might understand how Darius did some of the unbelievable things he did.
"Well, you two have a good night. I'll go back to my hotel room. May we see each other soon!" Darius said as he stood up and started walking out of the restaurant he once more felt glares all around him.
It seemed his discussion with Anna and Fleur had become the main attraction of this evening, which wasn't too surprising considering everything that Darius had pulled off in the last hour.
'Ah…whatever. It's better this way. The sooner I get to the hotel, the better,' Darius thought as he walked out of the restaurant with a smirk.
On the way to the hotel, his mind was extremely occupied as he thought of all the possibilities over his reward since it had to be a major consideration, considering the restrictions attached to the reward. It was the first time that he had been asked to be completely alone to receive a reward from the system, so it only made sense for it to be extremely overpowered.
However, as he walked back to his hotel, he once again felt deadly glares on his back, and when he turned around, he finally managed to see who had been doing those ever since he had left the hotel.
It was Yuna, Clara, Avery, and Emma, who were all standing next to one another, staring Darius dead in the eyes.
"What were you doing back there?" Yuna asked as she walked up to Darius with a frown.
Darius only sighed. "Look, I don't have time to deal with your jealousy right now. I have to get back to the hotel. I was having dinner with a potential new recruit for the company, that's all."
"Then, why did you touch her like that!" Yuna practically shouted as she got right in Darius' face.
"Because I needed answers. Either way, you don't have to worry. It didn't work out, and I won't see them again."
Yuna frowned as she was about to say something else, but she noticed that Darius truly seemed annoyed by her comments for the first time he had met her. There was a great chance that he wasn't lying or anything like that.
Noticing this annoyance, Yuna shut her mouth and simply followed Darius back to the hotel. The rest of the girls also did the same thing, as they all noticed that there was something different about Darius.
Quickly enough, they reached their hotel room, and Darius went straight to his room.
"Don't come inside my room tonight. I have to deal with something."
All of them were surprised when he said such a thing. However, they all nodded.
Then, Darius shut the door.
'Alright, I'm alone. No one will interrupt me. What's the reward?'
