World System Among Gods novel Chapter 8

The five youths look at each other. They can’t get angry or refute what Ares said. They are indeed weak, and they realize that.

One in five youths ventured to speak to Ares. "Sir, our village is in a state of famine. The harvest in the garden failed due to the attack of wild beasts. That's why the five of us, as the strongest people in the village, tried to hunt for meat. Instead of the meat we got, we got lost and went deeper into the forest."

"Take all the body parts from this wolf, and I will escort you back to the village. Ashur, come take them out!" he shouted, calling for his partner.

From the thick of the tree emerged an adult man with an athletic body and handsome face but still lost to Ares' perfect look. The large green sword stuck behind Ashur’s back made him very dignified.

Seeing the arrival of Ashur, the five youths who Ares was helping are a little wary. Then he decided to speak to lighten the mood, "You don't need to be wary. My brother's face is a little scary, but trust me, he's a good person, and of course, he's powerful."

The five youths regained their composure and relaxed their vigilance a little. "Sir, it's rude that we haven't introduced ourselves. Let it start with me, I'm Erick, and they are my colleagues."

"Sir, I’m Louis."

"I'm Daniel."

"I'm Taro, and this is my sister Akira."

Ares smiles politely, then introduces himself and his new company on this journey so far, "I am Ares, and you must know his name is Ashur. He’s my partner, but also like my brother and bodyguard."
