Is there something wrong with playing Genshin Impact in the dungeon?

You dare to mess with me?

Moreover, Ling Shu's true form is not a young boy.

They might not even be interested...

At that time, they'll probably have to experience firsthand what it means to live in a world where looks matter so much, and where the world is truly cold and indifferent.

Ahem, I've gone off on a tangent.

at the moment……

"I'm sorry, guest, my two 'silly cats' have caused you trouble. I'll give them a good scolding later."

The person who grabbed Chloe and Anya by the shoulders with one hand and forcibly pulled them apart was a human woman with brown hair and brown eyes.

She, Lunova Fast, Lv.4, is twenty-two years old.

She was once a celebrity with a near 100% mission completion rate, just like [Black Cat].

However, unlike the latter's profession of assassination, Lunova is a bounty hunter.

Generally speaking, her strength is roughly the same as Chloe's... and Anya Fromor, the younger sister of Eren, the current vice-captain of the Freya Familia.

But he was the strongest among them.

In the past, she was nicknamed "Black Fist" by the gods because she could destroy buildings with a single, easy punch.

As for now...

"Stop fooling around, or Mia's mom will get angry."

Just as Lunova stopped the two catgirls from causing trouble, another, softer voice sounded from the side.

Ling Shu was certainly familiar with the person who spoke at this moment.

She's the fairy who falls flat on her face... cough cough, she's the fourth protagonist of DanMachi, a tool-like henchman with an incredibly bumpy past—[Hayate] Ryu Ryo.

Speaking of which, in the original future trajectory of the current world, after a certain red-eyed rabbit boy fully exerted the power of the One God to win her heart, the famous line that almost made Ling Shu, who was reading the light novel back then, burst out laughing was hers.

But, to be honest...

This is a female elf who will never betray you as long as you don't let her down. Although she is always confused, she always has a heart full of 'justice'.

"That's why I'm always treated like a tool, sigh~"

Ling Shu couldn't help but silently complain to himself.

At this moment...

"Ok?"

Liu sensed something was amiss and turned her head to look at Ling Shu (Kong).

Just then, I happened to meet the latter's 'overwhelmed with emotion' gaze.

And then came a meaningful sigh.

She frowned slightly.

I always feel like I'm being seen through in many ways.

and……

"There's a hint of malice... Huh?"

Before Ryu could finish her thoughts, she noticed that the blond-haired, golden-eyed boy she was paying attention to suddenly frowned.

because……

"what happened?"

Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying's 'hostility perception' passive abilities were triggered simultaneously.

Chapter Seventy-Nine: People Fear Fame...

The Traveler Twins' passive ability 'Hostility Sense' is an additional effect of the skill 'Elemental Vision'. Its range increases with the level of Ling Shu's Grace, but currently it only has a maximum sensing distance of 10 meters in radius.

This is also one of the reasons why Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying were unable to take effective action earlier when their team was attacked by 'Lymton Serpent' during the previous expedition.

And now...

"Ok?"

The red arrow in their field of vision appeared for only a moment. When Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying looked over at the same time, they only saw that the entrance to the tavern was... well, empty.

Further on... on the outdoor street, the pedestrians coming and going all seemed very natural.

Ling Shu was certain that he hadn't just imagined it.

After all, he was actually "two people" in his "airborne firefly" state.

On Ying's side, although she possesses a soul that is a replica of Ling Shu's original body and can share her senses with the latter in real time, maintaining communication regardless of distance through a 'mental link'... she is still essentially an independent consciousness.

In this situation, it's impossible for two people to have the same misconception out of nowhere.

So……

【Zawarudo——】

When these thoughts flashed through his mind, Ling Shu himself was a beat slow to react.

He was a man who was used to acting cautiously, but on a whim, he summoned Paimon, who was in stealth mode, and had him activate his 'time stop' ability.

As 'magic power' begins to be rapidly depleted...

"Whoosh~"

In a state where he is neither able to interfere with anything outside nor can he be interfered with by anything outside, Paimon, who is in a "static world," instantly flies out of the tavern and begins to observe the possible anomalies around him in mid-air.

She paid particular attention to the dark alley next to the 'Abundant Mistress' and the surrounding rooftops.

pity……

"As expected, the reaction was slow."

The petite figure sighed helplessly, "The other party is most likely a master of concealment, and has already blended into the crowd as if nothing happened."

All I can say is that Ling Shu felt somewhat regretful for not activating 'Demon God Manifestation' to pause time immediately.

At the same time, this also symbolizes that he is still seriously lacking in experience in dealing with various matters at this stage.

My 'magic' is running low.

And so, when time began to flow again...

"..."

Although he couldn't figure out why the 'hostility perception' was suddenly triggered, Ling Shu still habitually did what he 'went with'.

He secretly instructed Paimon, who was still invisible, to observe the people around him... as well as the current situation of Loki, who was a god.

In the end, it was good news.

Even Finn, Riveria, Grace... and Mia's mother, all the Lv.6s couldn't see through Paimon's disguise.

Needless to say, levels 5 and below are even lower.

Even Loki failed to notice the 'time stop' phenomenon that had just occurred.

By the way...

Ling Shu had actually asked Freya to test the relevant data beforehand.

The result is exactly the same as the current situation.

However... Ling Shu is used to playing it safe. Since he suddenly activated the 'time stop' ability this time, it wouldn't be a bad thing to take the opportunity to conduct another related test and obtain more practical data.

Ultimately, what if, due to the different 'essence' of the gods, there are things that some gods can perceive that Freya, the goddess of beauty, cannot?

Or perhaps...

What if Freya hadn't told the truth back then?

Although Ling Shu didn't want to doubt this older sister who had a favorability rating of 'Level 8', it was always better to be cautious in another world.

It should be said that after obtaining the results of this round of testing, Ling Shu, while maintaining a basic level of vigilance, undoubtedly increased his trust in Freya.

"Then, let's put these trivial matters aside for now."

Inside the tavern, Ling Shu (Kong) continued to chat and laugh with several quirky female staff members.

But in his heart, he secretly began to ponder...

Where did that fleeting hostility come from?

He kept this in mind.

******

That night...

"The Twin Stars may possess a very high level of special perception skills, Lord Ishtar."

The fourth district of the city, the pleasure street, is a place where brothels and pleasure quarters can be seen everywhere... cough cough, the red-light district.

In everyday life, as night falls, those who are under too much pressure in their daily lives, or simply those who are just perverts, come here to vent their desires.

There are quite a few families and businesses within Orario that have set up similar 'legal' facilities.

Moreover, many of these 'employees' did not enter the industry voluntarily.

Unlike the naturally open-minded Amazonian people, they have fallen into this predicament and become 'commodities' with clearly marked prices for various reasons.

Undoubtedly, this alone reveals the dark side of the world today...

In short, the largest brothel in the entertainment district is undoubtedly the 'Ishtar Familia'.

Purely out of jealousy, the Ishtar Familia's base was specially built into a 'mini Orario' by their own goddess.

The goddess Ishtar lived on the top floor of that 'Little Tower of Babel'.

at the moment……

"You mean, you've been discovered?"

Heavily made up and dressed daringly... well, with a few pieces of transparent silk hanging from her body, practically naked, the brown-skinned goddess looked at the muscular man in front of her with a furrowed brow.
