"I heard you killed those fanatics. I also heard that you left the Evil God's sacred treasure with the Rakan Church."

"Ah, yes."

"So I came to give you your second trial, but... You haven't changed much since our last spar."

"What do you mean?"

"You're weak. You haven't developed at all."

"You've gotten stronger? It's like you went from being an ant to a horned ant."

It doesn't matter whether you're an ant or a horned ant; I could squash you with one push of my finger. That's all you are, an ant!

"Ahem."
