"So you defeated a whole Orichalcum Golem with a single punch, Nepheline?"
Shade's eyebrows twitched in disbelief at what his wife said. He was pretty sure the last time she fought one, it took her at least a dozen punches before the thing were sent flying into pieces.
"Yeah, I mean, aren't we still growing stronger? Even when we finished our duties as heroes, our power has only increased more the more we train."
"I guess we never truly stepped out of the battlefield, it followed us…"
"Hah, don't be like that, you also like training, you do it every day at night. And you're always cultivating religiously while cleaning all your assassination tools."
"It's more of a ritual at this point… But I don't intend to use them against people anymore…"
"Well, luckily there's more than just people out there, like giant monsters and true demons for example."
"You're not wrong… But you… you've indeed become so much stronger, I'm amazed."
