Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Gourmet Journey

Chapter 767 The Silly, Slow-witted Girl Who Can't Remember Too Many Sad Things
"Lord Loki, who exactly is the god of that little girl?"

“Kali, the former master of Tione and Tiona.”

"But shouldn't she be happy to meet her former god? Why does Tione look so unhappy?"

Anyone could see the gloom on Tiony's face; after arriving at the hotel, he said he wanted to be alone and locked himself in his room.

Tiona, as her younger sister, ran over to keep her company. Ais and the others were somewhat worried about her situation, but they didn't want to disturb her, so they could only ask Loki, who seemed to know something.

"I only know the general outline of Tione's situation, and since she herself doesn't want to say more, I won't say anything more either."

“However, Miss Tione’s condition is not quite right.”

“Lefia, I know you are worried about Tione, who is a fellow member of the Familia, but everyone has things they don’t want others to know. I hope you can understand.”

Riveria was clearly aware of some of the things involved, but her stance was very much in line with Loki's. She would not say anything about Tione's private matters that she did not want others to touch without Tione's consent.

Helpless, Ais and the others could only knock on the door, but were turned away by the Amazon girl.

However, Tiona did manage to escape.

He reported to Loki that the underwater seal was intact and that he had seen the man-eating plant in the sea.

It was only then that Ais and the others realized that besides being brought out to relax, they had also come to investigate the man-eating flower monster in the harbor of Melon.

"If the underwater outlet seal is fine, then the problem must be with the surface outlet. We'll send some people to investigate the various surface outlets, while others will visit the local guild branch manager and the head of this port town."

Loki made arrangements, including Broly and others who were not members of the Loki Familia, due to the problems with Tione.

"They said we were here to relax and have fun, but it turned out they were just conscripting men and making us do chores?!"

Hestia immediately began to complain.

"Broly in his swimsuit, have you seen it?"

Loki leaned down, hooked his arm around the little goddess's neck, and whispered a question.

"So what if I saw it?"

"After the investigation is complete, I'll prepare a few more even more sensational stories for you."

The words of the Clown Goddess were like the whispers of a demon.

Hestia paused for a moment before asking in a low voice, "How exciting is it?"

"There's a hole in front."

"make a deal!"

Broly: "..."

If you're going to help, then help. Why use him as a bargaining chip?
Furthermore, Lady Hestia, you have seen me naked with your own eyes.

Why would someone get excited just because they gave you a pair of swim trunks with a hole in the front?
There are always some unsolved mysteries in this world.

Broly was assigned to a group with Ais, Lefia, and Tiona to investigate the situation at the water outlet.

The others were responsible for protecting the goddess, going to the guild to meet the branch manager here, and going to the town center to visit the head of this harbor town.

As for Tione, he truly became a person who quietly stayed in his hotel room.

"Tiona, you should know what happened to Tione, right?"

After changing back into her original clothes, while investigating the water outlet, Ais asked the Amazonian girl in front of her, who seemed no different from usual and still somewhat optimistic.

"What do you mean?"

"The reason she's unhappy."

"I know that."

"Can you tell us why? Miss Ais and I are both a little worried about Miss Tione's condition."

Rafia pressed for answers, while Broly remained silent.

He only had a casual acquaintance with Diona's sister. She was neither a target of the Crystal Palace's affections nor someone like Diona who had become familiar with him, made him feel good about her, and then, without her objection, had cost him 10,000 happiness points to invite her to join the Crystal Palace as an external wife. If it weren't for Ais and others caring about her, Broly wouldn't have really cared what the other party's situation was.

"Yes, it has something to do with the country we were born in..."

Tiona had no intention of playing the riddle-taker and answered directly.

She and her sister were born in a southeastern peninsula country, far from Orario, a country known to the outside world as the Fighting Kingdom.

The country's inhabitants are only Amazons, and men are prohibited from entering. The citizens of the Fighting Kingdom spend most of their time fighting in the arena against captured monsters or other Amazons.

Parents do not exist. The children born are given centralized training, and they are trained to be warriors from birth.

"In the process of becoming a warrior, we need to face situations where we kill our roommates who grew up with us, or even sisters killing each other."

Tiona's tone was very calm, as if she were talking about something unrelated to herself, but the content of her words made Ais and Lefia feel the cruelty of her birth country—the Kingdom of Tir Sculla.

Of course, compared to the Saiyans who would send children under one year old to conquer monster planets, the Amazons of Tyr Scylla are relatively humane.

At the very least, the Amazons of Tyr's Cula would raise their children to a certain age before letting them fight each other.

Saiyans, on the other hand, would simply stuff the baby into a single-person spaceship and leave.

"My sister killed her roommate, who had taken good care of her in the past. Ever since then, she has become very unhappy whenever Tyr Scylla or Lady Kali is mentioned."

"If you can be happy about killing your sister who ate, lived, and slept with you, who was practically family and had taken care of you since childhood, then it would be truly unbelievable."

No, in fact, I should ask, Miss Diona, how exactly did you manage to maintain your optimistic and cheerful personality in such circumstances?

"Ugh, I guess I'm just a bit slow and clumsy, and I'm not good at understanding what makes other people sad."

Tiona answered and jumped up from the pipe opening.

"The drain outlet here is fine, and the iron railings are all intact."

"Is being stupid and slow-witted really an advantage?"

"Of course, more importantly, I have my sister. As long as my sister is there, I feel like I have no problems."

"So, Tiona, do you also hate the Kingdom of Dou, and hate that Goddess Kali?"

As they headed to the next water outlet for inspection, Broly suddenly asked the Amazonian girl a question.

With Tiona already an outsider at Crystal Palace, this is a somewhat life-threatening issue.

. . . . .

Achoo!

Kali sneezed suddenly and looked at the goddess who entered the tent with some displeasure.

"Ishtar, what are you putting on? It smells so pungent!"

Inside the room, carpeted with velvet, the owner of Pleasure Street met with guests from the Kingdom of Dou. "Is it pungent? This is top-quality perfume."

"I can't appreciate this kind of thing. The blood of the strong is much more worthy of my careful sniffing."

"The blood of that Freya Familia Lv.7 adventurer is definitely to your liking."

Ishtar sat opposite Kali, who was reclining on a velvet carpet, completely unconcerned that her high breasts were exposed after she sat down and her silk scarf was spread open.

"The blood of a Lv.7 adventurer is indeed something to look forward to. However, I have heard of the strength of the Freya Familia from the outside world. Even if I am confident in my child's strength, I am not so arrogant as to think I can defeat the Freya Familia. Although I came here at your invitation, if you are just an overconfident person, then I will not accompany you to do anything reckless."

"Of course, I've prepared enough trump cards to deal with that bitch Freya."

As Ishtar spoke, he turned to look at the figure who followed him in, whose figure and appearance were mostly hidden by a cloak.

"A fox-girl, is she the trump card you mentioned?"

"Ah."

What kind of trump card is it?

"The trump card is something that should be revealed at the crucial moment."

Ishtar did not say it explicitly.

"alright."

Kali just looked at her for a while, but didn't ask any further questions.

"However, before I fulfill my contract with you and fight against Freya's Familia together, I need to receive a certain amount of payment first."

"What do you want, gold and silver jewelry, or a high-quality man?"

“I don’t want any of these. I want your child, and these fighting prostitutes to do me a favor.”

"What kind of help?"

"Help me attack the Loki Familia."

"Are you crazy?"

Upon hearing this, Ishtar immediately stood up.

"I want to kill Freya, which already means I'm preparing to go to war with one of Orario's top-tier Familias. If I attack the Loki Familia on top of that, I'll drag them, another top-tier Orario Familia, into my conflict. Kari, are you kidding me?"

Even Ishtar wasn't confident enough to fight Freya and Loki, two top-tier clansmen, simultaneously.

"Don't rush. My purpose is simply to find my two former children, Tione and Tiona, within the Loki Familia. I have no intention of waging a full-scale war against the Loki Familia. Your battle prostitute only needs to hold back the others and prevent them from interfering with my children's battle with those two."

Kali corrected her statement, but Ishtar still wanted to refuse this request. It was a ridiculous attempt to control her. With Loki's temper, if she were to harm her child, that guy, whose heart was no bigger than her breasts, would definitely hold a grudge and retaliate later.

"Lord Ishtar, I think it would be good to fight the Loki Familia."

However, before he could utter a word of refusal, the burly woman behind him, who resembled a toad, spoke up.

"If we disguise ourselves and attack the Loki Familia as members of the Kali Familia, we can lower the Freya Familia's guard against the Kali Familia."

Frini's words made Ishtar fall into deep thought. Orario was still very wary of powerful familiars getting close.

The news of the arrival of the Kali Familia cannot be kept secret any longer, and that bitch Freya will probably receive this information very soon.

Although a plan has been devised to have the Kali Familia infiltrate Orario and launch a surprise attack on the Freya Familia later, it would be good to lower the Freya Familia's guard beforehand.

The only issue to consider is moderation.

“Kali, I can grant your request and allow my battle prostitute to help.”

However, you must promise me that you will not allow your children to kill any children of the Loki Familia.

If no one dies, and it's just a battle, it won't make Loki completely turn against him.

"it is good."

Kali readily agreed. She simply wanted to witness the current situation of the two sisters after they chose different paths. As for killing them or sparing their breath, it made no difference to her, their former master; both were matters that could determine a winner.

"Furthermore, if things go wrong, my men will also be withdrawn."

Ishtar added that the Kali Familia might not be able to defeat the Loki Familia, even if it's just a small portion of the members who came to Melon's side.

. . . .

"I don't really like Douguo, but I don't dislike Xiaojiali."

Tiona answered the Saiyan's question.

"Huh, why?"

Lefia was somewhat surprised.

“I can understand why you don’t like Dou Guo. After all, the social environment of such a country is indeed very bad. But I can’t understand why you don’t hate the gods who are the instigators of such a bad social environment in Dou Guo.”

Ais looked at her with a puzzled expression and asked the question that was on the elf girl's mind.

"Yes, although the environment in Dou Kingdom was indeed caused by Xiao Jiali, Xiao Jiali is actually a very easy-going deity."

"Huh?"

"Back then, when it was almost time for my sister and me to fight each other, I just mentioned to her that I didn't want to fight my sister, and she agreed."

"Oh, is that okay?"

"Of course, that's not all. When I later suggested that I wanted to leave Tyr Scylla and see the outside world, Little Kali agreed and gave my sister and me a lot of travel money as travel expenses. It was because of that travel money that my sister and I were able to reach Orario smoothly."

The god who seemed to create a cruel social environment for a country was surprisingly easy to talk to in Tiona's words.

By this point, Ais, Lefia, and Broly had also learned about the connection between the sisters Tione and Tiona, the Kingdom of Dou, and the God of Kali.

"Miss Theona, what is the purpose of your former supreme god's visit to Mellen?"

Rafia asked the crucial question.

"Xiao Jiali said it was sightseeing, but my sister thinks she must have other purposes, so I don't know either."

"Well, whatever their purpose, as long as it doesn't affect us, it shouldn't be of much concern to us."

After learning the reason for Tione's bad mood, the swordswoman girl relaxed.

"Let's quickly check all the water outlets. After we've investigated the carnivorous plants here, we can go back to Orario, and Tione will surely be back to normal soon."

Seeing someone you dislike makes you feel bad, so once you can't see them anymore, your mood will definitely improve.

That's what Fiora thinks.
