After I V-brother Zheng 50

"In theory, if you give a truly magnanimous person the opportunity to show their magnanimity, the person in question will actually feel much more at ease."

"Huh? Is that so?"

"Of course... The truth is, Ryu, you were so rigid today, bowing and apologizing non-stop. You were polite enough, but it made that elven royal family member unsure of how to respond."

"Really? Really?"

"You didn't realize it all along? That's so rude of you."

"Hmm~"

……

The two talked to each other the whole way back to headquarters.

As the sun sets, they gradually disappear into the distance.

And inexplicably...

The blonde elf girl, who should have been in the center of the lecturing field, gradually found herself being the one taking the lead.

But they were unaware of it.

It's obvious...

Within the current world, most elves are somewhat arrogant and haughty in character.

Ironically, speaking frankly and directly is the best way to restrain this personality trait.

So, the useless elf A went up.

So, the useless elf typed GG.

Shrinking its neck and poking its fingers, it became like a quail.

Chapter Seventy-Nine: The 'Flaws' of the Golden Men and Terracotta Warriors

The headquarters of the Astrea Familia, within the cozy manor 'Garden of Stardust' where goddesses and maidens live together...

Welcome back.

Today, she was volunteering at an orphanage in a slum. The goddess of justice, who hadn't actually been back for very long, was standing at the entrance, routinely welcoming her 'children' back.

"We're back, Lady Astrea."

Liu politely responded.

After nodding, [Lotus] responded slightly.

She looked into the room...

"Ah, I'm so tired, Kaguya~"

A spirited girl with her long, crimson hair tied in a single ponytail... Her own captain, 'Alicie Rofer,' was sprawled out on the sofa in the hall in a rather unseemly manner, burying her head in complaints.

Today, they were commissioned by the City Guard (Ganesha Familia) to patrol a large area to maintain order within Orario, and they were so busy that they didn't have a chance to go home and rest until very late.

It seems they didn't even have lunch.

"Sorry, Commander, I'm also very tired right now and don't want to talk before dinner."

A girl from the Far East, dressed in a kimono, was also leaning back on a shorter sofa, practically sprawled out like a couch potato. "You should find someone else to comfort you."

"Hmm~"

Without a doubt, given their respective Lv.3 superior physical attributes, they wouldn't feel so tired if they were just patrolling for a day.

Ultimately, it's because the current labyrinth city is completely lifeless, with dark factions causing trouble every day, and some troublemakers taking their anger out on them, making them even more tired and exhausted.

At this time...

"Goddess Astraea, I would like to update your [Ability Values]."

[Lotus] had only just entered the house when she mentioned it.

Upon hearing this…

"Huh? Now?"

The truly magnanimous long-haired goddess was stunned for a moment.

"Ah."

[Lotus] nodded and said, "I had a friendly sparring session with the 'Sword Maiden' of the Loki Familia today, and I wanted to see if I had improved afterwards."

"!"

The moment these words were spoken, Alexie, who had been rolling around on the sofa just a moment ago, jumped up with a "whoosh".

emmmm~

Where's the promised 'tiredness'?

Then I saw...

"Who won? Who won?"

Alexie had already run a few steps to [Lotus], put her hands on the latter's shoulders and shook them, her eyes full of curiosity.

Seeing her like this...

"I have a slight edge."

Under normal circumstances, [Lotus] wouldn't lie, so she naturally made a 'universe between fingers' gesture.

The side...

"..."

Liu didn't know whether she should correct it or not.

Well... you're not just slightly better.

You're practically ready to hang him up and whip him.

You even made that nine-year-old girl cry.

"..."

In the end, Ryu wisely chose to remain silent.

Even though she didn't tell the truth...

"Ha, finally even that so-called most talented 'Sword Princess' is no match for you!"

From a sofa in the distance, Kaguya remarked with a sigh, "Only Lv.1, and less than a week after becoming an adventurer... Tsk, truly a monster among monsters."

This is clearly a 'Kaguya-style compliment'.

And along with this topic...

"No way? A Level 1 defeating a Level 3?"

"Would you say this counts as a 'great achievement'?"

"Absolutely!"

"So, Lian can level up now?"

"Less than a week? That's way more terrifying than Fiora's record (one year)!"

"Could our little sister be a fairy disguised as a human?"

……

Uh, I'm really sorry, but the blonde little girl who was beaten up so badly today that she was practically producing tiny pearls is actually closer to having a fairy-like constitution.

Therefore, even the immortal spirits that are known as 'half-gods'... as long as they are not top-tier immortal spirits that can be directly regarded as 'smaller versions of some god', they are not that terrifying.

This is pure cheating (beep~).

At present...

"Dinner will be a while yet, so let me update your [ability stats] first."

Goddess Astraea was clearly intrigued as well. "Lian, come to my room."

"Ok."

A thirteen-year-old girl responded and followed.

The others... although they wanted to join in the fun, they still knew their limits.

At this point, only after the person in question updates their [ability value] information can she and her own god decide whether to disclose it internally.

Because of certain secrets, the person involved does not want too many people to know.

For example, Kaguya doesn't want some of her skills to be made public.

It wasn't that she didn't trust her companions or worried that they would leak secrets.

Rather, that skill symbolizes her past 'pain'.

It's a psychological trauma.

In short, that's about it...

Inside the main god's residence, as [Lotus] removed her upper garment, a drop of divine blood fell onto her back, and mysterious patterns began to appear in mid-air.

Before long, the highly efficient goddess Astrea completed this blessing update and printed the detailed values ​​on a parchment.

When He handed over the parchment...

"Congratulations, Lian."

The goddess of justice, radiating maternal warmth, smiled gently and said, "While I don't recommend you do it immediately, but..."

"Yes, the fastest in history, you have met the upgrade requirements."

Upon hearing this, I took the parchment without hesitation.

Under his sweeping gaze, see details:

"Uh, I still haven't awakened [magic] and [skills]."
