"When I activate my senses as a Divine Maiden, what I see is you… you radiating an intense golden-brown energy that seeps through everything within my sight. It's like looking at a deity who has descended to our mortal world to take a stroll."
"Everywhere that energy passes, what exists of Faust's own system is easily suppressed and assimilated. It looks like a group of normal people bowing in awe and reverence to something far greater than themselves."
Xela chuckled. "After seeing that, how could I say no to being given a free chance to adopt a power that can even make everything I've known kneel like a lesser entity?"
Darius and Gunner shared a look before smiling. "That makes sense. What about the other part of your reasoning?"
Xela frowned coldly. "On the other hand, I rushed for this power because I knew it would propel me further than I could have ever gone before. With it, I will gain great power and a strong backing from the future Supreme."
Her expression morphed into a thin smile as she gazed directly at Darius. "As for why I wanted that power, it should be obvious to you, Master Darius. If I was so favored and well-treated by the world and especially my own race, would I have ended up here, waiting to be sold as a slave to humans?"
Darius nodded as he and Gunner had been snickering about this exact same thing when he had first Analyzed Xela. Gunner also had a similar story to tell about how the Giant race had mistreated him until he had eventually ended up in Foldo's hands, which was why he had made no attempts to reconnect with them after being freed.
It seemed Xela was given a similar treatment where she came from, although according to the Supreme System she was a pureblooded elf making the alienation far more surprising than Gunner's.
Darius sat with her and Gunner, asking Xela to educate him about her circumstances and the details of the elf race just as Gunner had done for the giant race.
With this, his Database grew greatly as he gained a lot more useful information about how the world worked outside of the eyes of the human race on Fallon.
A few hours later, Xela placed her important valuables which were a white staff and some jewelry into her newly minted Inventory and followed Darius, as well as Gunner, out of her room.
The former party of two had now solidly become a party of three!

Darius returned upstairs to seat himself within the conference room. Here, there was only Foldo waiting for him as he sat down with Gunner and Xela beside him on his left and right.
Foldo smiled at this sight and lifted up a chest of items, which was the first of three. He poured the items within the chest out and over the table, splaying them around casually.
"Master, here are the most special items we've procured during your seclusion." Foldo informed as he leaned back and waited silently.
Gunner and Xela used the Supreme System's inspect mechanic, but could only glean surface information about many of these things. As for Darius, he had no such weaknesses as he directly activated Analyze.
12 items lay before them.
The first was a strange-looking heart that smelled of freshly cut wood. It was green and had vines crawling around its form.
The second was a leaf that shone with golden brilliance. Just looking at it made Darius and co feel like they were being blessed and refreshed.
The third was a polished stone that was far larger than the Resurrection Stone and very different. This one was purple in color and glowed with a soft light that wasn't hard to miss.
The fourth was a pair of black gloves with a strange runic array hidden within. The back had a short grey bar that glowed particularly noticeably as it was opposite the runic array's core on the outside of the glove.
The fifth was an earring with a rosary. It was golden and had smaller gems embedded within, but one could sense the power within this small ornament.
The sixth was a long staff that looked to be made of some scaly material. At the tip was a small gem that had a cat's eye jewel within, one that was colorless too.
The seventh was a red cloak with a golden clasp in the middle. It was truly fancy and the material looked soft as hell, with a strange symbol embroidered on the sides.
The eighth was a strange-looking black and green vest that seemed to cover the entire torso. Darius could not tell what material it was made of, but it was not metal or common fabric either, but something similar to leather or Kevlar.
The ninth was a circlet that was purely white in color with leafy designs carved on its body. It looked perfect for a female.
The tenth was a long and sizable arrow that was about 3 times the size of typical ones. It was made of metal and had thin fletching on the rear.
The eleventh was a gun, that much Darius could see. However, it was not a typical gun, but something that looked similar to the electromagnetic guns on Earth.
The twelfth was, surprisingly, a flask. It was made of pristine glass and a soft, treated hide covering its body. If it weren't for the large rune carved on the hide, Darius would have wondered why it was even here.
Rubbing his chin with curiosity, Darius read the items' descriptions one by one. As he had seen many valuables from his first session with Foldo and even greater things from Darla, he wasn't so easily moved anymore.
Yet his eyes shone as he Analyzed these items. In terms of raw power and greatness, Darla's items got them beat, but in terms of personal utility and simplicity, they were far better.
Darius started from the first item on the table, the heart.
[Tree Heart - Unique
Durability: 3,000/3,000
Description: A special heart extracted from the Ent Champion of Gaia. When implanted into any living being, grant them the highest possible affinity with the nature element as well as the Ent transformation.]
