I'm in Teyvat, join the chat group.

Since we're going to pretend, we should pretend to the end.

So, so handsome!

Seeing Li Xiao's performance, Hestia immediately abandoned all her own plans and joined Li Xiao, displaying an arrogant demeanor.

"That's right! We are provoking you!"

Loki sighed and rubbed his forehead, feeling that Hestia was getting too arrogant.

“Bert, teach this boastful young man a lesson.”

"Tch, you should have said that earlier."

A silver-haired youth emerged from the shadows, staring fiercely at Li Xiao.

If it weren't for the presence of the two high gods, he would have already made his move the moment Li Xiao uttered that provocative remark.

"Arrogant brat, you're unlucky to have met me!"

Bert lightly jumped and swiftly delivered a flying kick to Li Xiao.

He decided to teach this 'weakling' a lesson and make him understand that some things shouldn't be said casually.

Seeing Bert's flying kick, which was clearly not at full strength, and the contemptuous smile on his face, Li Xiao showed an uninterested expression and casually waved his hand.

A powerful gust of wind suddenly appeared, slamming Bert, who was flying in mid-air, firmly to the ground.

"Ugh! What the hell is this?!"

Bert cried out in pain, then suddenly exerted all his strength to break free of the restraints.

But in the end, he was completely unable to move and could only let out a roar at Li Xiao.

Loki frowned as he watched this scene.

Is this magic? Didn't the dwarf say this was a newcomer who had just joined the familia?

What kind of incredible magic could allow a Level 1 character to defeat a Level 5 character so easily?

Or is he not LV1 at all, but LV6?

Although the strong in Orario all know each other, it's impossible to guarantee that they are people from outside Orario.

Loki, realizing he had discovered the secret behind it, looked at Hestia and gritted his teeth, saying:

"I really didn't expect that you, little dwarf, could actually find a level 6 person to be your familia?"

"LV6? What are you talking about? I'm a newbie who just started using the Grace skill and hasn't even updated once yet."

Li Xiao answered Hestia's question.

"How is this possible? How can a Level 1 be this strong? Wait, something's not right!"

Loki suddenly remembered something.

Before the gods descended upon the earth, there existed beings called human heroes, who possessed immense power despite receiving no favors.

Could it be that he was also a human hero?

And he was a human hero born in this era of the gods' descent?

P.S.: I have an exam tomorrow, so I'll probably update again after 6 PM if all goes well.

"Where did you find this child?"

Loki's face showed an expression of envy, jealousy, and hatred as he asked Hestia a question.

Hestia looked at Loki's expression, the one she had always dreamed of seeing, and laughed triumphantly.

"Haha! Loki, you look absolutely hilarious."

"You little dwarf!"

Upon seeing Hestia's expression, Loki instantly flew into a rage.

"Stop gloating! You're just lucky!"

"Oh yeah, yeah, yeah! I just got lucky! What can you do about it?"

Watching them chat so happily, and then glancing at Bert who was struggling frantically, Li Xiao, somewhat speechless, spoke to the nonchalant Loki:

Don't you care about your group members?

"It's okay, as long as you don't die."

Loki waved his hand, looking completely indifferent.

"Instead of that, young man, why don't you come to my Familia? It's a waste for you to stay in that dwarf's Familia. With your talent, you can receive better training in our Loki Familia."

"What are you trying to do?!"

Hestia couldn't stand having her family taken away by a cow, so she quickly spread her arms to block Li Xiao, just like a mother hen protecting her chicks.

"Alright, Hestia, I won't leave you."

After reassuring Hestia, Li Xiao solemnly addressed Loki.

"I have no interest in joining other clans, and with my strength, your so-called training is nothing but a joke."

"All right......"

Loki sighed regretfully, seemingly having given up, but in reality, he had already begun to secretly make plans.

"Is there anything else? If not, please release Bert."

They had already done their boasting, Hestia had vented her anger, and Li Xiao was ready to release Bert as instructed, but then the system started acting up again.

【Ding! 】

[A limited-time mission is now available—Defeat the Loki Familia!]

[Completion Reward - Hallucinogenic Hypnosis]

Upon hearing about the new mission, Li Xiao immediately changed his tune.

“I can let him go, but I want to fight your entire clan.”

"Ok?"

Loki, who had expected Li Xiao to back down gracefully, frowned.

"Are you sure? You have to understand that fighting one person and fighting an entire clan are completely different concepts, and Bert is far from being the strongest in my clan."

“I’m sure. Call everyone. I’ll be waiting for you in the open area east of Orario with Bert.”

As he spoke, he used the wind to lift Bert up, preparing to leave.

"Wait a moment!"

Loki quickly stopped him and then questioned Hestia.

"Shorty, is this what you meant?"

“That’s right! Li Xiao’s meaning is exactly what I mean.”

At times like these, Hestia would naturally stand by her child.

Although they didn't know what Li Xiao wanted to do, Hestia would unconditionally support whatever he wanted to do.

"Isn't it necessary to go to this extent? Can't we talk things over?"

Loki really didn't want to fight; it wouldn't benefit her regardless of who won or lost.

However, Li Xiao did not answer again, and used the wind to carry Hestia and Bert away.

Seeing this, Loki had no choice but to go and discuss the matter with Finn.

Li Xiao and Hestia, who had left, arrived at an open space outside Orario, which was the battlefield he had chosen.

Li Xiao threw Bert to the ground and prepared to wait for the Loki Familia to come to their door.

"You bastard! Let me go!"

Bert, who had been cursing and swearing the whole way, was still typing away when Li Xiao immediately muted him.

"Li Xiao, why are we fighting with the Loki Familia?"

Hestia wouldn't oppose Li Xiao's decision, but she was still a little curious.

"Of course, it's to get revenge for you. You've been mocked by Loki a lot of times, haven't you?"

Of course, Li Xiao wouldn't tell the truth here; instead, he would say what Hestia wanted to hear.

"Eh? Really?"

Hestia stared wide-eyed in disbelief. Going to war against one of Orario's strongest Familias just for her sake?

"of course it's true."

"Li Xiao! You're so kind!"

Hestia clung to him again, her eyes brimming with tears.

Li Xiao noticed that Hestia was using too much water. She was constantly shedding tears. He suggested changing the goddess of the hearth to the goddess of water, since Hestia couldn't cook anyway.

As one of the strongest Familias in Orario, the Loki Familia possesses considerable strength in both action and organization.

About an hour later, Li Xiao sensed that they had reached a place about two kilometers away and started to set up camp to rest and adjust their condition.

At this moment, Finn is discussing countermeasures with Riveria and other senior executives.

"According to Loki, the enemy is likely to be a human hero, so we must not let our guard down."

"We'll use the same method as before: Grace and I will hold them off, Riveria, you lead the mages to provide fire support from behind, and Ais, you harass the enemy from the sidelines, and then..."

Finn bit his throbbing thumb and calmly assigned tasks.

Most of them were high-level adventurers, so they arrived here very quickly.

However, this comes at the cost of some energy expenditure, though not much. But the cautious Finn still chose to take a break as a precaution.
