"Lily understands! I will work hard to learn this relevant knowledge to make Master Mu Huai's dungeon adventure smoother!"
"Yes, that's the momentum."
After gently pinching her smooth cheek, Mu Huai looked at the torch next to the entrance to the 18th floor. It was still burning quietly, but the flame was much smaller than before.
Lily knew he was here for the floor master, Goliath. She pulled out her notebook from her backpack, searched for relevant information, and told him, "Master Mu Huai, this torch burns for two weeks, which coincides with Goliath's fastest resurrection time. At this rate, it will probably take... three days for it to extinguish."
"We have to wait three more days... We have nothing else to do, so why don't we fight our way back from the 17th floor? That'll give us some extra magic stones and materials to exchange for money."
"Ok!"
……
The Adventurer's Guild announced that Goliath, the Lord of the 17th Floor, would be resurrected in about half a month. A team of adventurers, confident they could defeat Goliath and gain the [Great Deed], entered the dungeon half a month in advance, just to reach the 17th Floor before others.
But when they finally stepped onto the pure white floor known as the Wall of Sighs, they saw the seven-meter-tall Goliath, the main figure of the floor, lying at the feet of a black-haired adventurer. Its regenerative ability, which had terrified the adventurers, seemed to have lost its effect, and its flesh and blood seemed to have been torn apart by horrific beasts, revealing the pale skeleton inside.
"The Super Minotaur Cockroach has a pretty hard feel, and I had a lot of fun playing it."
After giving his evaluation, Mu Huai cut off its head from its neck with a sword. Soon its body turned into black smoke and completely dissipated. Only a huge magic stone as tall as two people and crystal clear sharp horns were left in its place.
The team of adventurers at the entrance were completely stunned when they saw Mu Huai dragging the magic stone towards them, and they quickly bowed their heads to show their respect to him.
A few days later, the Adventurer's Guild posted this message on the bulletin board.
Level 1 adventurer Mu Huai single-handedly defeats the 17th-floor Lord Goliath, completing a feat and advancing from Level 1 to Level 3! A new rising star emerges!

Chapter 25 Development Ability: Lucky...Pervert?
Time goes back to the day when Mu Huai had just defeated Goliath alone. After he got rid of the sight of the adventurer team, he immediately stuffed the magic stones and ox horn materials into the four-dimensional backpack, returned to the ground and went to the Adventurer's Guild to exchange the magic stones for fari.
Mu Huai decided to keep the pair of ox horns and see if he could make them into equipment or exchange them for some rare materials from other clansmen.
"Mu Huai!"
"Lord Muhuai!!"
He returned home humming a song. Worried about his safety, Hestia and Lily threw themselves into his arms with such force that they almost gave Mu Huai a stitch in the side.
He patted the two girls' heads to comfort them while he took out the horn material that Goliath had dropped. "Clang clang! This is the material that Goliath dropped. It looks great, doesn't it?"
Lily immediately put her family's encyclopedia to use: "Goliath's horns can be used to make giant axes and heavy armor, which are very popular among dwarf warriors. Lord Mu Huai can consider using them to trade with the dwarf warriors."
"Oh, now's not the time to talk about this!"
Hestia walked around behind Mu Huai and pushed him into the house. "Hurry up and lie down on the sofa. I'll help you update your ability values now. The [Great Deed] of defeating the Floor Master alone will definitely allow you to advance to Level 2!"
"Then Lily, go get some good food from the Mistress of Plenty!"
"Well, please, Lily-kun."
Mu Huai took off his shirt and lay down on the soft sofa. Hestia saw the strong muscles on his back, swallowed secretly, and then sat her elastic buttocks on his lower back.
Normally, updating ability values does not require such ambiguous postures, but Hestia just likes to use this method to have physical contact with him. In her words, it is to replenish the Muhuai energy consumed daily.
The silver needle pierced the delicate fingertips, and a drop of crimson divine blood dripped into Mu Huai's back. Agitated golden ripples emerged along with divine text that only gods could understand.
Mu Huai originally thought that the promotion process would be comfortable, but now he felt like a piece of meat thrown into a meat grinder. Every cell in his body seemed to be ruthlessly crushed by the rotating blade, and then slowly recast by some force. The stinging pain burning in his brain made him clutch the pillow beside him, gritting his teeth and saying nothing.
Hestia didn't know that Mu Huai was in pain because she was shocked by the fact that he skipped Lv.2 and went straight to Lv.3.
【Mu Huai: Lv.3.
Strength: I0.
Durability: I0.
Dexterity: I0.
Agility: I0.
Magic power: I0.
Lucky pervert:I.
Swordsman: H.
magic:【】

Hestia's Attachment:
Fire-related attacks and abilities are enhanced. 】
Mu Huai's continuous upgrades this time have given him two more development abilities and a new skill. The most special one is the development ability of Lucky Pervert. It is not within the scope of Hestia's knowledge, but just by the name she can guess that this passive skill will make his love luck better.
In comparison, skipping Lv.2 and directly advancing to Lv.3 is not that important.
Hestia copied the divine text on parchment and converted it into words that humans could understand before getting off Mu Huai.
He had just finished the painful process of having his body shredded and reassembled. Wearily, he took the parchment and glanced at the stats before handing it back to Hestia, jokingly saying, "Why didn't you tell me promotion would be this painful?"
"Huh? Shouldn't a promotion make you feel completely refreshed?"
"It really makes me feel brand new, but the process is very painful. It feels like my bones are broken."
"Impossible... How could this happen during a promotion?"
After discussing with Hestia for a while, Mu Huai came to a rough conclusion based on his own situation. The pain he experienced during his promotion was most likely because his physical state had been fixed by Bayin Eirin before.
Grace is the golden finger bestowed by God on human beings to continuously evolve themselves. When their physical state is fixed, they can only evolve by breaking the original constraints of the body.
It’s like wanting a small water tank to hold more water, but having to ensure that it remains the original water tank. You can only break the water tank into pieces and then recast it into a larger water tank with other materials.
The reason for jumping two levels in a row was that his ability value of [Great Achievement] and experience conversion from challenging the floor master at Lv.1 was enough to support him in completing two promotions, so he was able to complete this double jump.
"No wonder I only saw my ability points increasing, but I didn't feel any stronger myself... So that's the problem. But then, doesn't that mean my ability points can be considered potential, and every time I advance, I release all of it in one go to strengthen myself?"
Mu Huai's guess was very accurate. As time went by, the residual pain in his body disappeared, and explosive power filled his limbs and bones. He could easily swing out countless fist shadows with strong winds.
He vaguely felt that if he punched with all his strength, he could even create a sonic boom.
Unlike other adventurers who constantly hone themselves to gain experience points and become stronger, Mu Huai's physical strength is fixed, so the ability values he obtains can be regarded as his current potential values.
Only when he breaks through the level limit and breaks the constraints of his body and recasts it can he dissolve these potentials into himself. With this way of growth, he can maximize his ability value, that is, his potential, and then break through. For Mu Huai, it is a good idea not to go to Bayi Yonglin to take medicine to strengthen his body.
He jumped around in the living room excitedly to make his body lighter and stronger, but he ignored the durability of his pants. After a few kicks with sharp sounds of breaking through the air, his pants burst into pieces with a "sizzle".
"Wow!!"
Hestia covered her hot face with her ten fingers, and her blue eyes, filled with emotion, peeked through her fingers at Mu Huai's mermaid line and abdominal muscles, which were as well as the black flame dragon that made her both happy and afraid.
I don’t know what it would feel like to touch.
She was embarrassed by her bold idea. While Mu Huai was changing clothes in his room, she quickly ran to the bathroom to cool her cheeks with water. Then she clenched her fist in front of herself in the mirror and encouraged herself: "I must win a nice title for Mu Huai at the divine assembly!"
When adventurers are promoted to Lv.2, they usually have a title commonly used in Orario, such as Ai Si's [Sword Princess], but it is not easy to have a nice-sounding title.
First, it must be proposed by the clan's main god, and then discussed and voted on by the gods in the "Banquet of the Gods", also known as the "God's Meeting". Finally, the title that receives more than half of the votes is the real title given to the adventurer.
Most of the gods were fun-loving people, so they would often give adventurers titles that had a teasing connotation. The title that Aisi initially discussed was not [Sword Princess] but [Silent Blonde Princess].
But under Loki's coercion and inducement, the gods still gave her face and voted for [Sword Princess]
Mu Huai's feat of jumping two levels in a row and defeating the floor master alone is definitely worthy of the gods holding a special meeting for him, and Hestia is also ready to kill everyone at the meeting.
26
Chapter 26: The title is Loli Knight?
On the top floor of Orario's most eye-catching pure white tower, the Banquet of the Gods was held as scheduled.
The gods gathered in the circular council hall to discuss the person that the gods talked about most this week, the adventurer Mu Huai, who single-handedly defeated the Lv.4 Goliath, the main character on the 17th floor, at Lv.1, and completed continuous sublimation and promotion to Lv.3.
Since they only needed to discuss Mu Huai's title, Freya, who was in charge of presiding over the meeting, went straight to the point.
"Hestia's proposed title for the children of her Familia is 'Hero of Light'. Now, please share your opinions and proposed titles."
As soon as the words fell, many gods raised objections to this title. Many children in their clan were given shameful titles such as [Red-haired Afro], [Muscle Idiot], etc. Why could the children of Hestia's clan use such a cool title?
"I don't think this newcomer deserves the title of Hero yet. How about calling him 'Newcomer of Light'? It also compliments his rapid leveling up."
"I heard he spends money like water. He might as well be called the [Super Rich Adventurer]!"
The more Hestia listened, the uglier her expression became. None of these gods of fun were good people. They all wanted to give her beloved Mu Huai strange titles to satisfy their evil tastes.
She immediately put her hands on her hips and shouted: "My Mu Huai has no grudge against you, why do you deliberately give him such an ugly nickname!"
"Hey, shorty, it's just a title, is there any need to get so excited?"
A sarcastic voice sounded, and her old rival Loki walked towards her with a malicious smile.
"Loki, I'm warning you, you'd better not cause any trouble, or I'll never let you go!"
"Yo yo yo~ After going down to the lower world and changing into new clothes, you've become so impressive that you threaten me as soon as you open your mouth?"
"Which eye of yours saw me threatening you? Did you squint for too long and become blind?"
When these two enemies met, the other gods stopped chatting and watched them quarrel with joy.
Loki raised his eyebrows in surprise. He didn't expect that after not seeing her for a while, Hestia not only became more aggressive, but also became more sharp-tongued.
But she wasn't without ways to disgust him: "Titles are based on the adventurer's experiences and deeds, but the title you proposed has little to do with Mu Huai's experience. How does he look like a hero?"
A hint of panic flashed in Hestia's eyes. She knew her title had little to do with Mu Huai, but she feigned calmness and replied, "Isn't a hero someone who can accomplish the impossible? He killed a Lv. 4 Goliath at Lv. 1. If that's not considered a hero, then what kind of adventurer is?"
"That alone is far from enough to be called a hero."
Loki's lips curled up in a playful tone, and he changed the subject: "I heard that you seem to have fallen in love with Mu Huai?"
"So what?"
Hestia wasn't shy about announcing her relationship; she wished all female creatures knew about it and would stop harassing her, Mu Huai. She proudly puffed out her chest and said, "We're already in a relationship!"
Just waiting for your words!
Loki, who had secretly set a trap for her, laughed heartily. "I suddenly thought of a title that would suit him very well. How about calling him 'Knight of the Lolita God'? After all, there are only two of you in your clan now, so he must be following you around all day!"
"You're a tough girl whose breasts can't even produce milk, why are you deliberately targeting me?!"
Hestia's words snapped Loki's few remaining rational nerves.
"You cow!"
"Lululu~washboard, steel plate, flat-chested monster!"
“Ahhhhh!!! I’m so pissed off!!”
The two of them butted their heads together in wrestling like bulls. Freya sighed silently and decided to ignore them and continue her psychic communication. She had also noticed this adventurer named Mu Huai, but unfortunately, the brilliance of his soul was very dim and she looked down on him completely.
"The discussion session is over. Please vote for the proposed title just now. Please finish quickly so I can go back and take a shower."
In the end, the vast majority of gods voted for the title of "Knight of the Lolita God" proposed by Loki. When Hestia saw the other party's smile of success, she suddenly jumped up in anger and punched Hestia in the left eye, then stormed out of the council hall, holding up her evening dress.
After Loki returned to the clan, she boasted to Finn and Livilia about her glorious achievements at the divine meeting today. Livilia sighed as she helped her apply the ointment: "Loki, do you really dislike Mu Huai? After all, he is the insurance we chose for Ai Si."
"Tsk!"
Loki rolled his eyes in frustration. "The thought of my Aisi actively trying to get closer to him makes me furious. How could I possibly let that brat go like that?"
"Loki, Mu Huai is actually several years older than Ai Si."
"How dare he, an old cow, eat young grass!?"
Loki didn't bother to enjoy Livilia's soft fingers. He immediately jumped up from the sofa and prepared to find trouble with Mu Huai. Before he took two steps, she pushed him back onto the sofa and stared at him with an oppressive look.
"Loki, stop messing around. Aisi has been going to the dungeon more and more frequently recently. Mu Huai's insurance policy related to the fairy spirit is very important!"
"I...I just want to go back to my room and have a drink to relieve my boredom..."
Loki looked away guiltily, then muttered softly, "Mother Livilia really loves to worry about nothing. I'm not the kind of god who doesn't understand the overall situation."
Finn, who had been sitting as steady as an old dog, suddenly shuddered and then quickly left the office.
"I'm going to go train, you guys chat."
As we all know, elves are a long-lived race, and Livilia is an elf, and she is particularly concerned about age issues. Being called "mom" is equivalent to saying that she is old.
The gentle fingers that were originally applying ointment to Loki suddenly turned into steel claws, firmly gripping her skull and making a rattling sound. A terrifying murderous intent gradually spread from Livilia, like a cold, wet monster's tongue licking her neck.
“Crackle, crackle, crackle—”
