Chapter 59: White Rose
Operation Domination was shaping up to be an interesting event for Zarian. He’d fought the town’s upper crust of good aligned fighters and saw what his most powerful girls could do as a duo. He’d also paid close attention to how the evil humans conducted themselves.
In Zarian’s opinion, the kingdom’s evil underbelly wasn’t that impressive.
Yes, the evil humans had seemed stronger and scarier than the soldiers and guards. They must’ve been cunning to exist in Central Bramblevale without getting wiped out.
But once Naomi and Bianca had them outmatched, the evil humans weren’t quick enough in adapting and trying different tactics. They lacked flexibility except for the demonologist.
Was it because they lacked a militant education? They hadn’t exactly selected classes that were suited for proper battles. Maybe it was because the evil humans hadn’t dealt with strong adventurers like Zarian and his party before.
Zarian pondered on the situation regarding other evil humans for a little while, wondering if he should expand his spider surveillance and search the underground. Then he focused on adjusting his new monocle. It had some quirky enchantments.
<Sophisticated Monocle (Rare): This fashionable item can lead to others mistaking you as older and wiser than you truly are. Upon your whim and some aura, you can use a telescopic view function for both eyes. It also dims bright, searing light. Once given a search task, it will highlight targets to the viewer.>
The monocle was a nice trophy after sparing the lives of the foolish old men. Zarian figured there were plenty of cases where he would want the zoom function. Of course, having Bianca as a teammate meant he would enjoy the dimming function for just in case purposes.
The last part was even more unique. He figured the Sophisticated Monocle was useful for anyone who’d lost something and couldn’t remember where they put it.
