Chapter 180: VOL 3 - 18: Don’t worry about the consequences.

Trying to shift the topic, Erik spoke casually, which brought a smile to the girls' faces as they responded with enthusiasm.
"I was just about to suggest the same, Erik." Elara said with a cheerful smile, followed by Zoe, who added in a similar tone.
"Yeah, addressing each other so formally makes us sound weird—so we're counting on you, Erik."
"And I'm counting on you too, Elara, Zoe."
Erik replied with a calm smile, and with that, the group of four stepped aboard the ship—only to be greeted by the intense gaze of four Master-levels of immeasurable power.
"Hello." Erik greeted the group of Master-levels calmly. Standing before him were Ryoma, Thalia, Eleonora, and Sigrún—who all seemed to be waiting for them.
"Erik, come with us."
After smiling in greeting, Eleonora spoke with elegance. Erik nodded in response, then turned to say goodbye to the girls as they made their way toward their respective masters.
"See you later."
"Of course." Zoe replied with a beautiful smile, nodding her head, followed closely by Elara, who waved her right hand gently.
