He immediately guessed that Loki had probably discovered some unusual qualities in him, which was why he was so obsessed with him and tried to poach him time and time again.

Otherwise, even if he demonstrated the feat of fighting beyond his level, the Loki Familia, a top faction teeming with talent, should not be so fixated on a newcomer like him.

"Tch, I knew it wouldn't be that simple."

Loki pursed her lips, but her eyes lit up noticeably when her gaze inadvertently swept over the faintly glowing Adventure Album in Lefia's hand.

She turned back and patted Fenyu's shoulder meaningfully, "But you're quite generous, aren't you? I like you even more now."

After saying that, she stopped talking about poaching people, pulled her hood up again, and went back to Finn's side.

"Hello, I am Finn Dimna. I'm sorry, our chief god has caused you trouble."

A short but composed blond-haired dwarf youth stepped forward and extended his hand to Fen Yu.

He wore a gentle smile, but his eyes subtly swept over Fen Yu.

"Also, thank you for taking care of Lefia of our clan."

"Hello, the famous 'Hero'."

Fen Yu shook hands with him and politely replied, "It's a pleasure to meet you. Miss Lefia is a Level 3, Level 2 adventurer. She's very powerful and doesn't need my help."

However, the moment their hands clasped together, Finn's smile faltered slightly, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He quickly regained his composure, released his grip, and said with a smile, "Congratulations on leveling up. Let's grab a drink sometime."

Upon hearing Finn's words, Fen Yu gave a bitter smile to his heart.

As expected of the "Hero," Orario's top strategist and strongest individual, he was able to sense the change in his level with just a brief handshake.

Of course, this is also because he has just upgraded and has not yet fully adapted to his new body.

Once he gets used to the power of level 2, as long as he doesn't say it, others generally won't be able to tell what level of adventurer he is.

Otherwise, the Hermes Familia's concealment of their ranks wouldn't have gone unnoticed until now.

"Huh?! You leveled up?!"

Bert, standing to the side, shook the wolf ears on his head and looked at Fenyu with disbelief.

This guy has only been an adventurer for a few days? And he's already Lv.2?

Why are you so surprised?

Fenyu glanced at him and retorted, "I've been training since I was a child, and after joining a familia, I've gone on adventures for a while. I've been in Orario for some time now, so isn't leveling up normal?"

"Uh..." Bert was speechless for a moment.

Indeed, he didn't know exactly when Fenyu received the favor.

Moreover, he knew better than anyone that Fen Yu had trained diligently since childhood.

Thinking about it this way, it seems... not entirely incomprehensible.

"Wow, you've leveled up! Congratulations, Brother Fenyu!"

Tiona excitedly joined in, then blinked her big, curious eyes, looking at Fenyu and then at Bert beside her, "By the way, are you quite familiar with this stinky werewolf?"

We were friends when we were kids.

Fenyu explained simply, "It's just that he came to Orario later, and that's when we lost contact."

"Huh?! Bert actually has friends?!" Tiona exclaimed in shock, as if she had heard some incredible tale.

This sentence instantly ignited a powder keg.

Bert's temples bulged with veins as he glared at her fiercely: "Shut up, you stupid Amazon! What business is it of yours whether I have friends or not?"

"Huh?! Who are you calling a stupid Amazon, you grumpy, stinky wolf?" Tiona retorted, not to be outdone.

Seeing that the two were about to start fighting again, Lefia hurriedly rushed to the middle to mediate and managed to separate the two enemies.

After a minor farce, Finn and the others stepped forward and touched the portal to the secret realm, and detailed information about "Midsummer Courtyard" appeared in everyone's minds.

"So that's how it is... This is the 'Secret Realm Dungeon'..." Finn finished processing the information, his eyes gleaming with wisdom.

He raised his head and looked at Fenyu.

Fen Yu instantly understood Finn's meaning.

The Loki Familia are determined to seize this second opportunity.

He immediately laughed heartily and said, "Don't worry about us. We've already used up all our magic stones. We could only go in this once anyway. Please take the rest of the chance."

"Thank you." Finn nodded solemnly in gratitude.

This rare instance only offers three attempts to complete.

No one can guarantee when or where this dungeon will reappear after you clear it.

Therefore, Finn was determined not to let this opportunity slip by.

Fen Yu's voluntary retreat was undoubtedly the best outcome.

Fen Yu didn't seem to care about this.

This secret realm instance only appeared because of his own skill, "The Abyss Gazes," and for others, it is a rare and serendipitous encounter.

But for him, as long as he continues to delve deeper into the underground city, he is likely to encounter it every day.

Trading one opportunity for the goodwill of Orario's strongest clan is a sure-fire way to make money.

"To see someone through to the end, even if you're already a Buddha."

Looking at the legendary "hero" before him, Fen Yu smiled and decided to share the information completely.

"Although the monsters in the secret realm are not high level, they are troublesome to coordinate. Ordinary Hilichurls and Slimes rely on their numerical advantage, but the real threat is those two Lv.3 monsters."

He recounted every detail of the battle, from the Hilichurls and Slimes to the seemingly soft yet resilient defense of the Large Slime, explaining everything clearly.

Lefia listened attentively, nodding occasionally to add information, but she soon realized that the information she could provide was far less systematic and detailed than that of Fenyu.

"The one we need to be most careful of is that lightning mage."

Fen Yu's tone became serious. "Her most dangerous ability is teleportation. She can ignore the front line's obstruction and appear directly next to the rear guard. For adventurers who are encountering this ability for the first time, it is almost a killing move and can easily cause casualties."

Finn listened intently, his thumb resting on his chin, his deep blue eyes gleaming with thoughtful consideration.

Rivera's brow furrowed slightly, clearly assessing the threat posed by this ability.

As for Bert, although he still appeared impatient, his trembling wolf ears proved that he was listening carefully.

"Thank you for your information, Lord Burning Feather. This is crucial," Finn said solemnly.

"It was no trouble at all." Fen Yu waved his hand. "Well then, the stage is yours to take over from now on. We'll be going now."

After saying that, he turned around with Robin, Tifa, and Violet and headed towards the thirteenth floor.
