Agatha looked at Clyde with lazy eyes. Her feelings were clearly shown on her pale face.
"You won't sit with me?" she asked.
"No," Clyde replied curtly. Then took a bite of his bread. "Why do you want to see me?"
There were sighs from Agatha. Then she leaned back on the back of the chair.
"I've just had a tough day," Agatha said.
"So the World Master also had a hard day, huh?" Clyde replied.
"Yeah. I thought that after becoming a human, I wouldn't find it difficult to go through everything anymore." Agatha looked at Clyde. "I want to make an offer."
"You get to the point? I heard when someone just had a bad day they want to tell their story to someone who's going to listen," Clyde replied. "Wanna talk?"
Agatha smiled and let out a chuckle. "If I'm not mistaken, I would think of you as a caring person. However, I know that you just want whatever information you can get."
Clyde didn't change his expression. But inside he was a little disappointed because Agatha couldn't say what had made her day so hard.
Something that could make a World Master has a bad day was definitely not something trivial. And clearly related to this apocalypse. Whatever it actually is.
But Clyde wasn't really that disappointed. Because he had expected that Agatha wouldn't be that stupid to say anything.
"What kind of offer?" Clyde finally asked to the point knowing he couldn't get any more information.
"We will offer you power so that you can go through the Selec... uhm, I mean this apocalypse more easily," Agatha said.
Clyde's forehead twitched because he realized something had slipped out of her tongue.
"I don't think I really need it," Clyde said. 'Especially if I completed the Personal Request from the Gremory and obtained information from her.'
Given that, Clyde thought that it seemed like he was better off not saying anything about his encounter with the Demon Duchess.
But Agatha smiled and snorted. As if she had expected that Clyde would say that.
"You must think you're strong enough now," Agatha said.
"However, you don't know what tomorrow will bring. There are still three days before this is over, you know. Anything can happen."
Clyde frowned. "You manipulated this apocalypse so that many strange things happened. Then you forced me to obey you or I couldn't get through it. Is that it?"
Agatha had heard from Luccio that someone was manipulating the Selection Stage.
"That's not us," Agatha said.
But Clyde looked at her as if to say he couldn't believe it.
"Believe me. We are not the ones who manipulated this apocalypse. We are also confused about who did it," Agatha said.
"Whatever." Clyde realized that he had spent too long here. "I don't have time so I'll just say that I can't accept your offer right now. Maybe later, or tomorrow, you can see me again."
Clyde walks past Agatha. Agatha looked at him with a frown.
'Where exactly is he going?'
Agatha got up and followed Clyde. "Why did you refuse my offer so easily?"
"The reason is quite simple. I don't want to become a slave to World Masters or a party like you. I know quite a lot that in an offer , I will be the one who loses. Even if I'm successful to do the things you wanted," said Clyde as he continued walking.
'Damnit!' Agatha cursed inside her head. 'Why does there have to be someone again in the Selection Stage! But at least I have to get him now.'
"Alright." Agatha stepped in front of Clyde and blocked his path. "I'll offer you something that won't cost you anything."
Clyde snorted. "Oh yeah? What is that?"
"It's kind of a Quest. So if you manage to do this you'll get a good reward. But if you fail, you have nothing to lose."
'Is this a Personal Request?' thought Clyde. From what he heard, it did sound like Agatha wanted to give him a Personal Request.
"What's that?" Clyde asked in an even tone.
Agatha then stretched her hand to the side of her head. After that, a Window that looks the same as the usual Window in this apocalypse appears.
Unlike Gremory's Window, the Personal Request Window that Agatha pointed out didn't look like something that came from outside this apocalypse's system.
In that window, there is only 1 Personal Request.
[ You have received a Personal Request from World Master Agatha. ]
[World Master Agatha's Personal Request. ]
[ 1. Kill 1,000 Wendigos. ]
Clyde frowned and put on an incredulous look on his face. Even though it's only one, that Personal Request sounds quite hard.
"1,000 Wendigos?" Clyde asked while looking at Agatha. "Are you serious?"
Agatha smiled awkwardly. "That's a lot. But you will get a handsome reward if you manage to finish it."
"We can offer high-grade weapons, skills, coins-"
"I will do it if you want to answer my question," Clyde cut in before Agatha could finish her sentence.
Agatha blinked her eyes a few times. "What do you want to ask?"
"The things about this apocalypse."
Agatha closed her mouth and pressed it together. She didn't think that Clyde would want that.
"I just wanted to know."
Agatha seemed to think about it for a few moments.
'If he manages to complete that, then I can get quite a lot of Tokens. It's not enough to cover my Tokens that have been stolen by Luccio. But it's still better than not getting anything.'
'But if he succeeds, he will demand the answers he wants and get to know about what really happened behind this apocalypse.'
Agatha glanced at Clyde who was also staring at her.
'Could I take that risk?'
"You still thinking? Didn't I tell you that I don't have much time?" Clyde said.
Clyde then walked past Agatha.
"Argh! For my Token's sake, I'll take that risk!" Agatha ran back to Clyde.
"Alright. I agree," said Agatha.
