[Distant Past, Eldion Empire]

When both Mia and Alda arrived at the Empire's capital they immediately headed straight for the adventurers Guild and registered as an official adventurers

By that time onwards both Alda and Mia reap achievements from mission after mission after mission

Due to this both of them ranked up way faster than they should normally would which in turn caught the attention of several nobles including the church to form a connection to them

From time to time whenever they had free time on their hands, they would visit back on their village and spend some time there before returning to the capital

As years passed both Alda and Mia was at the peak of their A-rank status in their guild, with a few more push they would be able to breakthrough from A-rank going to S-rank

One day Alda received a reward from the church after successfully defending their Main Church from the demons that assaulted the Empire's capital

The moment that the reward was bestowed upon him by the church, he was donned by a stinging bright light that shone everywhere of the vicinity

As the light faded he suddenly acquired a skill called sword saint manifestation which allows the user to wield the power of the sword saint in the legends

Due to this the church held a celebration for this piece of information together with the people of the capital, because of this the Empire's nobility and royalty caught the attention of Alda

Using this kind of power both Alda and Mia managed to get passed the trial and successfully becoming an S-ranker

Few days have passed since their promotion both Alda and Mia are now spending their time inside a cafe of the Empire

"So we finally made it!" Said Alda

"I know! You keep saying that for a few days now" complained Mia

"What can i do? I still can't believe that we actually managed to become an S-ranker and not just that but also acknowledged as the strongest dual wielding swordsman of the empire" explained Alda happily as he slumps down on his seat

Seeing him in a euphoria state Mia couldn't help but smile at him which cause the person in question to be flustered

"Wa!... What are you smiling about?" Asks Alda in surprise from seeing Mia's charming smile

"Why? Can't I be happy? After all we've been through all these years... I'm pretty sure that I deserve some happiness" stated Mia as she takes a sip from her cup

"Happiness huh!" Exclaimed Alda

After that silence permitted the place for about few seconds before Alda said

"Maybe I want to settle down!" He said

Hearing him Mia almost spill her drink as she turns her attention at Alda

"Settle down?" She asks

"Yeah! Not maybe but I want to settle down at least... I've already earned enough... Now I want to settle down, marry someone, and live a happy life with the family I created" he said as he dreams as such event

"Well... I... I think that whoever you marry will be a lucky person because you are a caring person after all" said Mia as she turns a little bit red

"Yeah... But the thing is I don't know when I'll stop... Maybe I should try to groom myself a little bit! That way I could attract some girls and maybe just maybe I would find the one I'm destined" said Alda happily
