My front door leads to a comic strip

Chapter 178, Chapter 177: New skills that may be obtained after killing the god, Ota kills Adi?

Under the cover of night, the Star Garden finally shed the tension and solemnity of the past few days and ushered in a brief period of tranquility.

Gu Yuan followed the goddess Astrea through the courtyard.

"Is it really okay not to participate in the purge of those remaining rebels?"

The goddess's gentle voice broke the silence. She turned her head to look at Gu Yuan beside her, her eyes filled with concern and inquiry.

With all factions in Orario now in action, it is the perfect time to completely eradicate the darkness.

Gu Yuan shook his head, a look of exhaustion flashing across his face: "From the charity events in the morning to the traps in the evening, and then to the trial at the Tower of Babel—there has been almost no rest."

"Even I'm tired, and besides—"

He paused, then said, "Chardo and Alphia have been dealt with, and there are no other top experts left in the city."

"The other clans should also have a chance to shine; we can't let them get all the limelight."

Astraea paused slightly, carefully examining Gu Yuanranchen's profile in the moonlight, before a barely perceptible smile of satisfaction appeared on her lips.

This child has actually started to consider others and the balance of power in Orario?

She originally thought that, apart from becoming stronger and protecting what was necessary, his heart always carried a slight detachment from other things.

With this sense of relief, the two approached the gate of the mansion.

However, the inside of the door was eerily dark, with not a single light shining through, and the silence was unusual.

"Have the children all gone out to work?" the goddess murmured to herself, a question rising in her mind.

We paused for a moment.

She exchanged a glance with Gu Yuan, confirming that there was no sign of danger.

She reached out and gently pushed open the front door.

Just as the door swung open—

"Bang!"

A crisp popping sound rang out, accompanied by a sudden burst of lights, dispelling all darkness and unease.

Astrea and Gu Yuan subconsciously squinted to adjust to the sudden light.

The leader, Alexandra Rofer, stood in the center of the entrance hall with a radiant smile on her face, despite being wrapped in bandages. She was still holding a firework in her hand.

Colorful fireworks rained down, like a dazzling shower, making the entire entryway feel exceptionally warm and inviting.

"Welcome back! Our great hero!" Alexie's voice was bright, filled with heartfelt joy.

Behind her, several other members of the group who had been injured in the raid and had returned early to recuperate were also present.

They wore similar smiles, their eyes filled with genuine admiration and gratitude.

"Congratulations, Mr. Gu Yuan!"

"You saved Orario!"

Gu Yuan was visibly stunned by this sudden turn of events.

He wasn't quite used to the enthusiastic scene before him.

But at this moment, looking at those sincere smiling faces, a faint smile involuntarily crept onto my lips.

The goddess Astraea smiled, a warm feeling of comfort welling up inside her.

The significance of this scene goes far beyond a celebration.

This means that Gu Yuan's existence, his contributions, and his power have been recognized and accepted by most members of the clan.

The subtle barrier created by the Iska incident seems to be quietly dissolving in this shared ordeal and victory.

Her gaze swept across the crowd, but she didn't spot the familiar pale gold figure. She then asked, "Where's Liu? Isn't she with you?"

Maru hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and replied, "Goddess, after learning that Alyssa had been seriously injured by the dark faction, Leon went out alone to seek revenge on those remnants."

"Alissie tried to persuade her, but couldn't stop her—you know Leon's personality."

The goddess nodded knowingly. Ryu and Alyssa were like sisters, so it was not surprising that she would do such a thing, given her personality.

"It's okay!"

Alexie quickly said, trying to dispel everyone's worries, "Mr. Gu has already defeated the top combat forces of the Dark Faction. Now the entire Familia of Orario is mobilized to wipe them out, and the situation is under control."

"Liang is very strong, there won't be any danger for him."

The conversation abruptly shifted, her gaze involuntarily turning to Gu Yuan, scrutinizing him closely with clear concern in her eyes: "Mr. Gu, are you—alright? Your sword—"

She keenly noticed that Gu Yuan's broadsword, which he almost never parted with, had several shocking cracks.

Even such formidable weaponry was damaged in the battle, which shows just how intense the previous fighting was.

Gu Yuan glanced at the sword in the direction of her gaze and replied, "It's alright."

What he was thinking was that since he had already decided to recast, this crack was just a small episode in the process.

Alexie nodded, asking no further questions, but her eyes grew increasingly resolute.

She must become stronger to better fulfill her duties as captain and protect her comrades, instead of always being the one being protected.

No, perhaps after today's events, the position of group leader—she glanced at Gu Yuan quietly, a thought about the future allocation of responsibilities quietly passing through her mind, but she quickly dismissed it.

If that day ever comes, she can accept it calmly for the sake of a better future for her clan.

The celebrations had just subsided when Gu Yuan and the goddess walked through the crowd toward the living room.

As Gu Yuan passed by the crowd, he suddenly remembered something and slowed down.

"Goddess," he asked softly, "I have received a response regarding my act of slaying a god—according to the rules, strong will and significant deeds can both elicit blessings."

Do you think I'll be able to awaken a new skill or magic this time?

In this world, the awakening of skills stems not only from the deepest, most fervent desires within one's heart, but is also closely related to the actions of the adventurer.

Killing a god is undoubtedly a feat powerful enough to shake the course of fate.

Upon hearing this, the goddess Astraea hesitated for a moment.

"I cannot say for sure about this matter, as there are few precedents of this kind in history."

She pondered for a moment and suggested, "You've already updated your stats twice today, and you're extremely tired both mentally and physically, which might affect your feedback."

"But if you want, you can update it again and see, it's not a big deal anyway."

Gu Yuan was about to nod in agreement.

"Whoosh—!"

A sharp whooshing sound came from afar, followed by a light yet powerful landing, abruptly shattering the warm atmosphere inside the mansion.

The living room door was suddenly pushed open, and a night breeze rushed in. Ryu Leon appeared in the doorway.

Her golden hair was slightly disheveled, her breathing was rapid, and her gaze instantly locked onto Gu Yuan.

"Gu Yuan!" she said rapidly, not even having time to greet the goddess, "Come with me now!"

Gu Yuan turned around, his brows furrowed: "What's wrong?"

"Adi—we've found Adi!" Ryu's voice was anxious yet trembling. "But her situation is dire—Ota, Ota of the Freya Familia, wants to kill her!"

"What?"

Gu Yuan's face was immediately filled with incomprehension and great doubt.

Ota killing Adi? That's completely unrelated.

Why did Freya's captain kill the Ganesha Familia?

However, Ryu's eyes and demeanor clearly showed that "this is the truth."

She must have witnessed it firsthand or possessed concrete information; something urgent must have happened that she was unaware of.

In a flash, Gu Yuan made a decision.

"Walk!"

He was concise and to the point, without any hesitation.

He thought to himself that as for the update of his ability stats, and the new skill that might have been awakened due to the killing of gods—he would have to wait until he got back to see.

After all, his future enemies are far more than just a demon king.
