"You'd better think twice!"

After the "Dungeon Riot" incident just ended, the dungeon followers went to their usual tavern, the "Mistress of Bounty", but a conflict broke out with Hestia's followers due to the disturbance caused by a werewolf youth.

At first, Loki didn't care about such trivial matters, but she was the type who loved to join in the fun. After hearing the "war game" proposed by Hestia's family, Loki's narrow eyes suddenly flashed with coldness. He rolled up his sleeves and stood up, as if he wanted to rush out to question them.

But it was not until the female elf deputy leader found out the whole story that she realized that it was a conflict between her own clan and other adventurers. As a result, the senior adventurer of her own clan bullied others and was the one in the wrong.

"I already know the details, Bert. I told you that all adventurers are very interesting. Even if you don't value their lives, you shouldn't mock them wantonly. Now the result is that because of your recklessness, our entire family is in a dilemma."

Loki, who always had his eyes slightly squinted, slowly opened them, revealing a terrifying brilliance. The seemingly unreliable god of mischief rarely revealed the solemn majesty of a god.

The current situation is very troublesome.

Although Loki likes to act like a hooligan and do some small pranks, they are just minor incidents. It is obvious that she is actually a god who loves the people of the lower world. Bert, who despises other new adventurers, not only violates the principled precepts of the god Loki.

He also provoked disputes with other gods.

If it was an ordinary person proposing a "war game", it would be fine, but the one who supported and agreed to this war game was the goddess Hestia. She is a goddess, and her nature is completely different from that of an adventurer.

If Loki refused, she would lose face and all of Loki's family would be called cowards when they walked on the street.

But if they agreed, it would mean that one of the two gods must survive, which meant that the loser would most likely be expelled from Orario and forcibly sent back to heaven.

Loki liked the atmosphere of the underworld very much, but he didn't expect to be betrayed by his own clan.

Moreover, it was because of his own family's mistake that almost caused the accident of other new adventurers. Now he turned around and mocked the new adventurer as a waste. It’s sarcasm to mock him, but he chose Hestia’s family. Bert, that brainless wolf cub, doesn’t he know that Hestia has recently embraced a big shot who can be compared with the God of Forge?

"Tsk, if you ask me, this is the best opportunity!"

The werewolf youth gritted his teeth and argued, "Lord Loki, isn't this the perfect opportunity to establish our authority? Furthermore, if we win the 'War Games,' we can demand the Frostfire Gauntlets and the Sword of Hestia. I've investigated, and their Familia consists of only two members: one a worthless rookie, and the other a giant bear forger. How can they challenge our Loki Familia head-on? Even if we recruit other players, they won't be our match!"

The wolf cub was right.

This is indeed the enemy's apparent combat strength.

But has he ever thought about where a poor God like Hestia got the courage and guts to agree to the "war game"? Is it because she has nothing and is not afraid of losing?

Or has she had enough of the underworld, given up on herself, and wants to go back?

Impossible, absolutely impossible.

Loki knew Hestia, and now that he had found a strong supporter, he would definitely not do anything stupid.

"Go investigate the origins of that giant bear. He is definitely not a simple person."

The Loki clan has been rampant for many years, and it is not the first or second time that they have mocked new adventurers from other clans. However, because the Loki clan is so large and the werewolf youth is only level 5, under normal circumstances, no one would dare to cause trouble for them.

Now Loki suspects that there is a powerful backer behind Hestia.

"Could it be that Freya is behind this?"

Loki narrowed his eyes, but considering that Freya and Hestia didn't have that good of a relationship, it wasn't likely.

Loki knew in his heart that Bert was indeed wrong in this matter.

But if the werewolf youth, who thinks highly of himself, were asked to apologize to Belle, it would be the greatest humiliation for him, and he would definitely not agree.

Therefore, this matter should not have been blown out of proportion, it must have been intentional.

Loki quickly realized that the other party was well prepared and the "war game" was probably unavoidable.

"Aisi, what do you think?"

Loki suddenly looked in the direction of the Sword Princess Ais. The one of her most admired family members was this golden-haired, elf-like female swordsman.

In the past, Loki and Hestia had many personal grudges, but most of them were envy and jealousy, and they were not to the point of pushing each other to the brink of death. After all, there was no threat.

But the situation is different now. The other party has a clan and seems to be very powerful.

"Yes." Ais nodded. The seemingly aloof Ais recalled, "That bear man was incredibly powerful. He grabbed Bert's throat in a split second. It was so fast I almost didn't see him clearly. As expected, he must be Hestia's trump card."

"Do you think that giant bear can defeat you?"

"I'm not sure," Ai Si said hesitantly, but then she seemed to remember something and continued, "Also, during this underground riot, we discovered that several heretics had escaped to the surface. They seemed to have been attacked by some kind of monster from the deep. I had contact with one of them, but there's one thing I'm not sure about. Maybe my suspicions were wrong."

"It's okay, tell me your guess!"

For some reason, Loki, as a supreme god, seems to trust Sword Lady Ais very much and agrees with her words unconditionally.

"It's bearmen. The monsters that appeared in the deep are a group of bearmen. We don't know what their intentions are, they just keep advancing upwards. They seem to have a god they believe in, or a lord. His name is—Valhal!"

"!!!"

Loki's expression changed instantly when he heard what Ais said, and the other members of the clan were curious about what this name meant.

But Loki had heard some news from Hestia not long ago. According to the information, the name of Hestia's family was 'Valhall'.

"Ais, are you saying that the underground city riot might be related to Hestia's family?"

"Yes."

Sword Lady Ai Si nodded, worthy of being a female swordsman who had been to the 50th floor.

She knows too much.

The entire Loki clan knew too much. If they hadn't investigated the cause of the 'dungeon riot', the demigod giant bear might not have directly stated that he wanted to initiate the 'war game'.

Now, Loki seemed to understand everything.

"I get it! Or was I just too naive? I was wondering how such a powerful blacksmith could appear out of nowhere. Turns out Hestia is colluding with the monsters deep within the dungeon... So, they launched the 'War Games' because we knew too much and wanted to silence us, right? In that case, Bert was completely taken advantage of."

"Eh?!"

Everyone in the clan was shocked when they heard Loki's words, but they didn't know what was going on.

"Then, Livilia, do this! Tell the Loki Familia to accept the 'War Game' from the Hestia Familia! I'm sure you're all familiar with the rules of Orario. If Hestia is truly colluding with the dungeon monsters, it will be clear during the 'War Game,' and the other Families of the Gods will surely notice it. In other words, we're bound to win this 'War Game'!"

"Yes, Lord Loki."

Hearing this, Livilia nodded. Since the Lord God had already made the decision, she had nothing more to say.

On the other hand, Sword Princess Ai Si looked hesitant, as if she was not sure whether her guess was correct.

"Don't worry. If this was a misunderstanding, then we can recruit Hestia's Familia into ours and apologize to compensate them for their losses."

When things get to this point, naturally no one will refuse.

...

Big events rarely happen in Orario, but every big event will attract the gods of good fortune to watch the fun.

The 'Loki Familia' is about to launch a war game against the 'Hestia Familia'.

For Orario, this is definitely an event worth seeing.

However, most people and gods felt that Hestia's family was doomed to lose.

After all, there are only two members in the Hestia family, and both of them are unknown new adventurers.

If I have to say, Shen Yuan's "forging" ability is eye-catching and can be considered at the master level.

But regarding his combat power, some speculated that he may have reached LV4 or even LV5, which is why he is so confident.

the other side.

At Hestia's house.

"what?"

After hearing about the war games from Shen Yuan and Belle, Hestia was immediately surprised and said, "Loki really agreed!? Humph, she must be trying to bully a little-known god like me. She doesn't even have the slightest intention of apologizing. It turns out that she and her clan are just as despicable!"

"Hestia, just agree to this war game and leave the rest to me."

Shen Yuan saw that Hestia was a little uneasy, so he comforted her with an affirmative and confident tone.

"That's all."

Hestia showed a helpless expression.

Then, she looked at Belle seriously and asked, "Belle, what do you think? Do you want to accept this war game?"

There are only two people in her family.

If Belle does not refuse, then she, as the Goddess, will support the children's decision.

Belle looked at the demigod giant bear, nodded, and said bitterly, "I'm sorry to have caused you worry. I am willing to accept this war game, but I am too weak."

She is still a new adventurer. If she were to participate in a war game, she wouldn't be able to deal with even a LV2 Amazon warrior.

There are many powerful adventurers in Loki's clan.

"It's okay, just leave it to me."

After hearing what Belle said, Shen Yuan said without hesitation.

"Well, I'll try not to hold back!"

Belle often follows Shen Yuan in and out of the deep dungeon, and is very familiar with and confident in his fighting ability.

But speaking of it.

Last night, Goddess Freya, disguised as 'Seele', proposed to send the LV6 'Goddess's Chariot', the cat-man deputy leader of Freya's clan with the title of 'The Fastest in the City', to assist Shen Yuan.

But Shen Yuan refused, saying that it was unnecessary.

This time, the "war game" is also a time to show one's strength and gain the secret support of Freya's family. The two sides are in a cooperative relationship for the time being, and the goal is to kill Loki's family.

When Loki's Familia falls, only Freya's Familia will remain.

By that time, the bearman army would probably be about to land on the ground.

Loki's family, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for knowing too much and having to investigate the dungeon riot for no reason.

However, Shen Yuan did not expect that the information was leaked by Heretic.

Therefore, capturing the heretic became part of his mission.

......

The entire Orario is waiting for the day of the war game.

The adventurers, who had been busy all the time, took a day off to witness the war games between Loki's Familia and Hestia's Familia.

At this time, a gambling game about war games was being held in the 'Hostes of Plenty' tavern, and most of the adventurers had bet on the victory of Loki's family.

This war game hasn't even started yet, but many people feel they can already see the outcome.

This group of people also shouted that they supported Hestia's family, but they kept increasing the support for Loki's family.

"... Doesn't anyone think Hestia's Familia will win? This is too boring!"

Inside the tavern, the fat female owner who presided over the gambling was very dissatisfied.

"We support Hestia's Familia in spirit and their righteous killing spree, but... it's no use just thinking about it. Everyone knows how powerful Loki's Familia is. How can we win like this?"

The adventurers sighed, feeling guilty, and added more money.

Only a few courageous and faithful adventurers would put some money aside to bet on the Hestia family.

The betting was already one-sided before the game even started.

the other side.

At the banquet of the gods.

"Do you really want to..."

"Want to play a war game?" Loki's voice echoed clearly around.

"A war game between Hestia's family and Loki's family!"

Hearing these words, the crowd of gods all erupted in cheers.

All the gods came out of that luxurious building and looked over here with excitement on their faces.

"it is good!"

"finally come!"
