After Maxing out all Classes

Chapter 875: Even if I said it, you might not believe it

The Fire magician said, “I thought you were just a naive adventurer, but now you’re telling me that you’re an unbelievably powerful hero.”

Robb replied, “It’s not that I’m amazing, it’s just that I have a Holy profession, which happens to counter undead creatures like this stitched abomination.”

“They don’t seem to counter it that well,” the Fire magician retorted. “The priest in our team is already the strongest priest in the Adventurer’s Guild, but he alone wouldn’t stand a chance against the stitched abomination. Even with us, it would be an exceptionally challenging battle.”

Robb said, “Luck, perhaps my punch just happened to hit the stitched abomination’s weak spot.”

The Fire magician gave him a sidelong glance, saying, “I find that hard to believe.”

“Alright, I admit it, but don’t tell Chris and the others,” Robb whispered, “I’m the Godfather of Westwind City.”

The Fire magician froze.

After five seconds, her previously skeptical look turned into an eye-roll, “I initially thought you had some skills, and I respected you for that. But now you’re actually lying. Do you have no idea what kind of person the Godfather of Westwind City is? That sort of super influential figure must be as steadfast as a rock, majestic like a sculpture, exuding a heroic aura. How could they be as carefree and frivolous as you, spouting nonsense and using strange words that no one can understand?”

Robb: “…”

Suofa and Xuelu beside them burst into laughter.

Robb, looking somewhat helpless, said, “I apologize for claiming to be the Godfather. I’m really not steadfast or majestic. I’m just an ordinary young person. I have some flaws that young people typically have, and I might not even possess the good qualities that young people are supposed to have. It wasn’t my intention to crush your illusions.”

The Fire magician pouted, “Enough, stop tarnishing the image of the Godfather. I’ll pretend I didn’t hear what you said earlier. If I hear you say something like that again, I’ll have to defend the great hero’s reputation.” With that, she raised her hand, a fireball spinning on her palm.

Robb hurriedly said, “Okay, okay, I’m not the Godfather, not from head to toe.”

The Fire magician said, “So, the question returns to the beginning. Who exactly are you?”

Robb rolled his eyes, “This question… really stumped me. First, I can’t be the Godfather. Then, I have to tell you who I am. Geez, who am I, anyway?”

And with that playful exchange, the mischief came to an end, and time was almost up.

The Fire magician girl took out her pocket watch to check the time. Their group had been keeping watch through the night for two hours now. The first light of day should have already broken, indicating it was time to wake up and continue their adventure. Gorda, Jike, Chris, and the others gradually woke up as well. Their internal clocks were urging them to get up.

The Fire magician girl was about to approach them and explain what happened last night when Robb spoke up, “Miss beautiful magician, could you please help us keep what happened last night a secret?”

“Hmm?” The Fire magician girl said, “Everything that happens on an adventure should be shared with the team. Withholding information isn’t right.”

Robb replied, “But I feel that even if you told them, they might not believe it.”

The Fire magician: “…”

She found that hard to believe. She then grabbed Chris, who had just woken up, and said, “After you guys fell asleep last night, a stitched abomination came over.”

“What?” Chris jumped in surprise, “A stitched abomination? Why didn’t you wake us up? Oh, maybe it didn’t notice us and left?”

“No!” The Fire magician pointed to the distant stitched abomination’s corpse, “It was killed by that priest with a punch.”

Chris: “…”

Chris glanced at the stitched abomination’s body sitting against the rock wall and then at Robb, “I suspect this stitched abomination was weak for some reason. Robb went up, punched it, and used a purification spell, and it just happened to work.”

The Fire magician: “Uh…”

Well, fine, no need to explain. The Fire magician realized that it was pointless to waste her words. If she mentioned that the man pretended to be Godfather, she didn’t know if Chris would get very angry, affecting their unity.

The group set off on their journey once again, with Robb summoning the succubus to lead the way at the front. They maintained their formation, with warriors in the front and magic users at the rear, slowly advancing behind the succubus.

As a priest, Robb naturally walked alongside the two magician girls. However, the other priest was a melee-focused one and naturally walked at the front with the warriors.

As a result, the three at the back were Robb, Xuelu, and the Fire magician girl.

After the events of last night, the Fire magician girl already knew that Robb was strong, but she was still puzzled about who he really was. He had told her he was Godfather, but she didn’t believe it. She had been giving him a skeptical look all along.

Robb said, “Miss magician, you don’t have to give me such an odd look. I’m a good person, I promise.”

The Fire magician said, “I do believe you’re not a bad person. Otherwise, Mr. Gorda and the others wouldn’t be in the same team as you. It’s just that you seem very strange. You don’t have to worry about my gaze.”

Yeah, right!

Being stared at with strange looks by a woman all along the way, how could he not feel self-conscious?

At this moment, the people ahead were passing through an underground stone bridge, with a seemingly bottomless black abyss below. The abyss was connected by a small stone bridge above it, resembling the place where Gandalf and the Balrog fell in “The Lord of the Rings.” As a result, the people ahead were walking cautiously and didn’t have time to look back at those behind.

The three behind were waiting for the others to cross before stepping onto the bridge. Suddenly, a massive lizard head emerged from a hole in the nearby rock wall – it was a rock lizard.

On their journey, the group had encountered a rock lizard before. It was quite a formidable creature to deal with, so Chris had let it off the hook that time (Chapter 867, the last part). However, this time, no one expected a rock lizard to be hiding in a hole by the road.

As it extended its head, it startled the Fire magician girl. This creature was not easy to handle; they needed to call the people ahead to turn back…

Just as she was about to think of this, Robb produced a wooden stick from seemingly nowhere and swiftly struck the rock lizard on the forehead. The immensely powerful lizard didn’t even have a chance to make a sound – its head drooped, and it was done for.

Using the pointed end of the stick, Robb nudged the rock lizard’s head and gave a push towards the hole. The lizard’s body was nudged back into the hole, as if it had never crawled out in the first place.

Robb’s hand swayed, and the stick vanished into thin air. He clapped his hands together and laughed, “This time I didn’t use my fist. Heh, didn’t get my hands dirty.”

The Fire magician: “Ah? Huh?”

Robb put a finger to his lips, “Shh! The people ahead didn’t see, so we don’t need to draw special attention to it.”

The Fire magician: “Even if I tell them, they might not believe it anyway.”
