Upon seeing Sheila resting below the shade tree, Ria was relieved as she initially thought the former might still battling with a monster to grind for experience. Fortunately, she came at the right time during her break. Without wasting any second, she quickly notified Sheila of the grave news.

"Sheila, there's a trouble."

​​

"Trouble? What kind of trouble are we talking about? Is Yuna injured or something? I still have plenty of health potions if that's what you're asking."

"No, it wasn't about Yuna. It's about the outside."

"What happened?!" Her body suddenly disappeared from her previous spot before reappearing right in front of Ria with a worried look on her face as she leaned closer. Understandably she was the cause of her friend's worry, Ria slowly explained to Sheila the information she heard from Angelica when the latter suddenly comes knocking on their door to inform them of rather grave news.

"So what are you saying is, the people from the Church suddenly decided to anger the Earth Dragon who was minding its own business deep inside the mountain, and the result brought the Earth Dragon out of its hiding and cause massive damage to the surrounding area and now, the same dragon is heading its way to our district?" Sheila slowly narrated everything as if she couldn't believe what she had just heard from Ria. After all, it never crossed her mind that there would be someone out there that's even more reckless than her.

It's an Earth Dragon, not just some random slime in the bush that anyone can beat with a tree branch. It's an actual monster that can easily wreck a small city or town if it ever wishes to. Even Sheila who was known for her recklessness was preparing herself by leveling up until level 50 or higher before she even thinks of taking on the Earth Dragon by herself. But now all her effort went to waste by some stupid people who think with their pride, not brain.

Even with the illusion barrier that covered the entirety of her whole district, she still thinks it wasn't good enough to take a monster at level 50+. There are also the innocent civilians she has to worry about. She isn't such a cold-blooded person after all, if it's possible and within her power, she will surely save them. If she only considers saving herself and her loves one, she wouldn't be creating an organization, to begin with. If the world fell to ruin, who will have so much time to create a new game for her when the only thing that came to their mind was how to survive for the day? There won't be that much entertainment at all in a ruined world!

Yes, she only wanted to save humanity for their technology and entertainment. Sheila is a modern girl thorough and thorough, she couldn't imagine living in a world where's there are no convenient electronic tools alongside the internet. That's why if she ever reincarnated like in the stories, she would never go into a fantasy world with undeveloped civilization. Even if the Gods will give her a cheat that makes her overpowered in that world, she will still reject and rather go to the afterlife. Magic is cool, but so does technology.

"Did you check the validity of the information before informing me?"

"Of course, I did. When I was told about it, I decided to make use of the illusion barrier and send the mythical beasts there to gather information for me rather than going personally. If they could only follow your command, I might have to go there myself though. Anyway, it wasn't a trap as I thought but the truth."

'What a headache. I couldn't even grind peacefully now,' Sheila sighed. "What about your parents and mine whereabouts? My father is fine since he has returned to work overseas, my mom, Sara, probably in the house cooking?"

"Yeah, your mother is in the house. Both of my parents are at works, I don't know what to say to get them to withdraw from their works, they can't possibly believe my words about a fantasy creature on the way to ruin our city wouldn't they? What should I do? Do you have any idea?" Ria appeared anxious, understandably since it's her parents they are talking about. Even someone as wise as her has her moment of weakness. Sheila would have acted the same too if she were in her place.

"Don't worry, I already predicted this might happen soon or later. And so, here are the keys for your mother and father." Sheila calmly said as she took out two keys from her inventory before delivering them on top of Ria's hand. Rather than a card like what she had given to both Yuna and in the future, Luke, Sheila decided to use the keys which had more functionality than a card full of restrictions for the tower safety. She had grown up with Ria by her side so obviously, she understood the latter parents well to the extent that she trusted them.

After all, her own parents also knew Ria's parents very well since they were once classmates in high school. They are like a second family to Sheila.

"Sheila..."

"Now, we don't have that much time to talk. Ria, you go ahead and ask for my mom's help, she surely knows how to get them to drop their work momentarily, she's specialized in that after all. As for me, it's hero tim—cough, I mean, it's time for me to take action for our plan." Sheila coughed and quickly changed her wording upon noticing the strange gaze coming from Ria. "Don't worry, I still got the illusion barrier as my trump card. If things went south, I'll just use them to taunt the dragon and changes its path."

Since the situation seemed rather grim, she might as well make use of it. It was a little early than expected, but it didn't matter. It's finally time to reveal her existence to the world, and also warned them that this world won't stay peaceful forever. Especially those hiding in the dark, Mage Society, The Church, and many other secret organizations that she didn't know.

Of course, she wasn't about to reveal her actual identity, that would be too idiotic. With many disguise skills in her arsenal, she can easily modify herself to the point they won't be able to connect her real identity and the fake even if the two were to be seen side by side. It's always safe to be on the caution side.

"Alright, it's time for the first monster hunter to reveal itself to the public!" Sheila muttered under her silver mask. She could feel the excitement raging inside her body, yet she never stops reminding herself that if she ever gets too carried away, she might possibly die.

With a calm expression on her face, Shiro took off. Because she didn't bother hiding from public eyes, people on the street eventually caught a strange person wearing a silver mask jumping unnaturally high from one place to another. Their common sense was telling them that shouldn't be possible, but the impossible scene was happening right in front of their very own eyes. It was fortunate that the people that witnessed her weren't driving or they might get themselves into an accident due to shock.
