Twenty years ago, Elesim.
At that time, Baron Clemens just received the duty of overseeing the westside of Elesim; he was happy.
Alongside his wife and two concubines, they came to the westside. It was then he fell in love again. Still, because of the strict management his main wife and the concubine had over him, Clemens couldn't openly court that maid who stolen his heart, at first sight, it was one of the previous maids send by the Duke to assist him. However, the possibility of her being a spy sent to control him couldn't be ruled out; Clemens didn't care because he was madly in love with the maid, soon their consummates their relation, secretly, of course. Their feeling grew for each other the more time spent together, and soon joyous news follows Chloe, the maid was pregnant, a girl. To not get caught and to let Chloe safely deliver the fruit of their loves, Chloe quit being a maid, the reason being that she must go back to her hometown to take care of her sick mother, the others did not found this strange, and they let her go.
Soon, Chloe gave birth to a girl. Unfortunately, she didn't make it through; she died before seeing her daughter; this news left the Baron heartbroken; however, his daughter, the fruit of their love, was present. With her, he could still feel his beloved presence. He named the baby girl Chloe like her mother. The Baron secretly raised his daughter until she was 18. Fortunately or unfortunately searching for a job because she wished to be independent, Chloe ends up working as a maid in her father's mansion. Because she was unaware of who her father was, she stubbornly refused to give when the Baron tried to make her give up. The Baron didn't tell the girl that he was her father because he felt ashamed; he hadn't been there for her, he had no right to call himself her father, so the Baron thought.
He had planned to tell Chloe everything; who would have thought the situation would have turned this way.
•••••
Back to the present.
''Y-you beast, she is not my concubine but my daughter, your niece,'' Clemens shouted.
Sam, Mio, Elsa, the guards, and even the big man with halberd were gobsmacked.
In Randall's case, it was as if a bomb had exploded inside his mind at the thought that he slept with his niece, incest existed in a certain family, but he was someone that wants to perform such a despicable act. Randall staggered, almost puking; however, when he remembered his goal, that person, and all he would get if he succeeds in acquiring that plate, Randall threw everything away, screw his morals, his beliefs. The only thing that matters right now was the glorious life that was promised to him.
''So what? Quickly hand over the plate.'' Randall said without the once of guilt.
If previously, Clemens had thought swaying his brother with this news, now that thought died completely buried in the deepest part of his being.
Although he wished more than nothing to hand over the said plate, which was more a burden than blessings in his current situation, the Baron knows that he mustn't act recklessly because of what secret the plate hold, his actual use, the reason behind Elesim particular situation.
''I- I w-"
Just as Clemens was about to open his mouth to say something, Sam stepped forward; he couldn't take any longer.
''I say, it's good the family drama. But I hate being ignored the most, Pork.'' Sam said while directly looking into Randall's eyes.
Randall's eyes turned bloodshot; it didn't help when Mio also added.
''Pfft! Haha! Butayaro.''
''I was planning to spare them; however, now I have changed my opinion. Kill them.'' Randall shouted with a trembling finger.
''I shall take care of this man.''
As if it was some competition, and she doesn't want to be outdone, Elsa stepped forward.
Sam didn't refuse Elsa's help; he had his reason for provoking Randall; the man was too calm, even when his defeat was apparent to all; Sam (Alex) want to know why and more importantly, he wants to know the secret the guild, the Duke and the Baron were hiding, there must be something special about this town.
While thinking about possible theories about this city, Sam observed the fight that was about to happen. More specifically, the man with a halberd was silently approaching Elsa (Lilith) while setting up his weapon.
'This man is quite skilled. He is Rank 7.' Sam thought after seeing the man's status.

'Wow! This man is no good.' Sam (Alex) wanted nothing but to erase this man from the face of this earth, seeing his titles, titles never lie, they reflect one's action, and this man must have committed atrocities to have acquired these vicious tittles.
Elsa and Skud both proceeded to shorten the distance between them.
''!?''
''Haah!''
As they entered each other's attack range, they swung their weapons.
Elsa her sword and the man with his halberd.
Whoosh!
The long weapons they swung tore through approached each other.
And then, they clashed, sending a high-pitched metallic sound around them. And it was not just once or twice. The sound repeated many times.
The halberd's ax head and Elsa's black sword clashed, again and again, repelling each other. From the shock that traveled to her hands, Elsa revealed a slightly surprised expression.
At the same time, the man was also surprised; he didn't even think for a second that Elsa could keep up with him, not she was slightly better than him. This made him realize that he would lose at this rate, so he decided to go all out. Belittling your opponent after seeing what she can do was a foolish thing.
''Berserk!" Skud shouted q, and red energy burst out of his body; his muscles bulged, his stats increased by hundred points (ATK, AGI, and DEF only).
''Earth Arrows!"
Simultaneously, after casting the Earth Arrows, Skud cast Earth Blast to shot forward like a cannonball; he appeared behind Elsa, who should be busy dealing with those earth arrows; unfortunately, Elsa never planned to engage the incoming arrows.
Swoosh!
She vanished to reappear above Skud and send a forward slash at him; it was not a normal forward slash, it was imbued of the lightning element, and by the time Skud reacted, he was electrocuted, his berserk state canceled, then arrived another three forward slashes, however, this time they were normal.
''Ugiahhh!"
Skud, who had lost his two arms and received a deep cut over his stomach, wailed before fainting due to the excessive pain he was feeling.
''Do you wish to continue?" Asked Sam after Randall last man standing was knocked out.
However, instead of showing signs of panic, Randall, on the contrary, burst into laughter amidst the laughter, he said with his left hand raised.
''Hihihhihihi~ You think you have won? I summon thee.''
