The Fukaros Familia, starting from DanMachi.
Chapter 35 Furina's Social Circle
The moment Fen Yu subconsciously reached out his hand, he felt an almost tangible killing intent emanating from the corner of the shop.
He followed his senses and saw a tall girl with short brown hair and dog ears staring intently at Mih with eyes that seemed to be spitting fire, next to the medicine grinding table.
Her eyes were filled with a complex mix of despair, frustration, and disappointment, as if she were silently screaming:
"Our family is almost starving, and you, you spendthrift god, dare to give away your valuable stock for free?!"
The dog ears were pressed tightly against the back of his head due to extreme emotional turmoil, as if he were about to transform into Cerberus and devour his own god alive at any moment.
Fen Yu's hand froze in mid-air, a bead of cold sweat appearing on his forehead.
He finally understood why the store looked so desolate.
"No, no, no, God Mihe, this is far too precious."
He quickly waved his hand and refused righteously.
"We were just passing by and couldn't possibly accept such a generous gift from you. I appreciate your kind gesture."
He could sense that the murderous aura emanating from the corner subsided slightly as he refused.
"Yeah, Mih, stop sending things away like that."
Funina seemed to sense the subtle change in the atmosphere as well, and she winked playfully at the dog-eared girl in the corner.
"Otherwise, Nazha will get angry again."
The dog-eared girl, known as Nazha, let out a heavy sigh, and her tense ears relaxed slightly.
She looked up and gave Fenyu a "you know what's good for you" look, which was a reluctant way of expressing her approval.
Fen Yu could only offer an awkward but polite smile.
Finally, under Mihe's regretful gaze and Nazha's relieved look, Fenyu and Funina left the Azure Pharmacy.
Fen Yu secretly decided that he could look after Tianqing Pharmacy when buying potions in the future, since Miheshen had just genuinely intended to give him potions without asking for anything in return.
Given Funina's connection, offering some help is nothing.
After saying goodbye to the penniless yet still benevolent god Mihe, the two continued strolling and unknowingly wandered into a more bustling neighborhood.
A rich aroma, a blend of butter and potatoes, began to waft through the air.
"It's potato balls!"
Fu Ningna's heterochromatic eyes lit up instantly. Following the scent, she precisely dragged Fen Yu to a street food stall.
The stall wasn't big, but a large wok of oil was sizzling, with golden potato balls rolling around inside.
And the one in charge of cooking was actually a deity.
He was tall and upright, wearing a simple short-sleeved shirt and apron. Beneath his neat black hair were a pair of equally black, piercing eyes.
His features weren't exactly handsome, but they exuded a heroic air.
If it weren't for the almost imperceptible divine power emanating from him, anyone would have thought he was just a hardworking and diligent ordinary human youth.
"Takemikazuchi, I came here because I smelled the fragrance."
Funina greeted them familiarly.
"The usual, creamy."
"Oh, it's Fucarus."
Jian Yulei, who was busy at work, looked up and smiled broadly. "I knew you would be attracted by this smell. Wait a moment, it tastes best when it's fresh out of the pot."
He deftly scooped out a few perfectly fried potato balls with a slotted spoon, drained the oil, put them in a paper bag, skillfully squeezed on some sweet cream, and handed it to Funina: "Here you go, same old rule, it's free."
Then, he looked at Fenyu and asked warmly, "Is this Fukaros's child? Have a serving too, it's on me."
"Thank you very much, Takemikazuchi-no-Kami, but we can't keep taking advantage of you."
Fen Yu smiled and took out a money pouch from his pocket.
"Please give me five portions, and include the cost of my goddess's portion in the bill. I also want to take some back for my friends to try."
As he spoke, he handed over the falafel, which was worth far more than five servings of potato balls.
Takemikazuchi was slightly taken aback, then burst into laughter:
"You're a really serious guy, buddy. Alright, since you insist, I'll accept it without hesitation."
As he quickly packed the items, he looked at Fenyu approvingly: "With a child like you in the Fukaros Familia, Fukaros can rest assured. Unlike my boys, they're always a worry."
His words were filled with love for his family members.
As Fen Yu accepted the bags of steaming hot potato balls, he not only felt the warmth of the food but also sensed the undisguised kindness and generosity of a simple and honest deity.
On her way home, Funina was happily savoring her creamy potato balls, taking small bites.
Fen Yu followed beside her, but his mind was filled with a myriad of thoughts.
He now has a complete understanding of Funina's social circle.
He had been somewhat worried that Funina's innocent and fun-loving personality might be corrupted by the gods of Orario, who took it upon themselves to have fun.
But now, he is completely relieved.
He looked at the girl beside him, whose face was beaming with happiness because of a dessert, and a gentle smile involuntarily crept onto his lips.
Warm and cozy days are always fleeting. For adventurers who make a living by conquering dungeons, battles and growth are the eternal themes.
During the period when the Fukaros Familia was steadily growing, the entire Orario was also quietly changed because of the skills of the Burning Feather.
As time went by, various pieces of information about the "new type of monster" were finally compiled and summarized by the guild's commission to the various clans, and eventually became a detailed report, which was published on the most conspicuous bulletin board in the guild hall.
The guild hall was bustling with noise and more crowded than ever before.
Adventurers crowded around the newly erected giant bulletin board, craning their necks to try and glean crucial information from the dense text that would allow them to survive and make a fortune.
"Look, the guild has named those new monsters."
"Fire slime is weak to water, its core is its weakness... I see. My sword was like cutting cotton before because I didn't hit its core."
"And this one, the Bomb Hilichurl... it can throw fire slimes? Damn, that's how I got injured last time."
"Rock Shield Hilichurls have extremely high defense. It's recommended to use heavy weapons or magic to break their shields first... This information is crucial."
With this official intelligence, adventurers can finally embark on their adventures more safely and take targeted measures to avoid danger.
Although the appearance of new monsters did cause a significant increase in the casualty rate of adventurers in the early stages, everything has its advantages and disadvantages.
The risks have increased, but the rewards are equally astonishing.
The new monsters drop far more valuable loot than dungeon monsters of the same level. Their magic stones contain purer energy and can be exchanged for more fali. More importantly, they provide adventurers with an exceptionally high amount of experience points.
