"Ah~~~~"

Taluvi squinted her eyes happily, took a bite of the potato ball Rhodes fed her, and exclaimed with satisfaction.

"Mmm! It's really delicious!"

However.....

Behind him, a vein slowly bulged on Rivera's fair and smooth forehead.

Even her emerald green hair seemed to have been tinged with a dangerous red because of her extreme displeasure.

That philandering bastard!

One second he was talking to me about our life as a couple after retirement, and the next second he was flirting with other girls!

Rhodes felt a jolt of fear, inwardly screaming that something was wrong.

He quickly stuffed all the potato balls in his hand into Ais's arms, who had been staring at him expectantly with her mouth watering, and pretended that nothing had happened.

As a result, Ais, happily showing off her fried potato balls, absorbed all the firepower from the angry madam.

"Ais! How many times have I told you, fries are unhealthy and you shouldn't eat too many!"

"Woo..."

The group played until noon.

As Metalia emerged from an exquisite jewelry store, she stumbled upon two drunken adventurers attempting to rob a passing woman.

"You've come at the perfect time. Let's receive some small gifts on our day off."

"That's right, little girl, we're the adventurers who are usually responsible for protecting the labyrinth city!"

"Oh, that's quite a lot. That'll make for a good drink."

"How...how could you do this? Please give it back to me!"

Metalia and Tarluvi immediately rushed over, fuming.

"What are you doing? Stop it!"

The two drunken adventurers, annoyed at being disturbed, were about to come over and beat someone up.

"Where did this nosy bastard come from!"

Taluvi immediately spread his arms to block Metalia, his expression as cold as a winter wind, speaking slowly and deliberately.

"I hate people like you."

"what?"

"Showing off your strength, thinking you're so great, bullying the weak. Don't you feel ashamed or embarrassed? I hate people like you the most!"

Enraged, the two adventurers drew their swords.

"Where did you come from, you bastard... Stop being so arrogant and talking nonsense!"

Just as Alphia was about to make a move, Adi rushed forward and swiftly knocked one of the adventurers to the ground.

"Quickly return what you stole to her, and then apologize to that lady!"

The other adventurer, now mostly sober, turned pale with fright when he saw his companion lying on the ground, seemingly lifeless.

"Damn it, they're from the Ganesha Familia."

He muttered a curse under his breath, turned and ran, only to bump into a blindfolded man with a cold expression.

The man's voice was deep.

"Noisy, chaotic, this town is too noisy."

"Hey, stop blocking my way! Are you looking for a death?!"

"Stop barking, you beast, speak like a human being. Although I can't see, I can hear very clearly. This broken, lousy voice is an insult to my ears."

"How dare you underestimate me! I'll kill you!"

Faced with the angry adventurers charging at him, the masked man simply stood there quietly, his hand on the sword at his waist.

Four steps.

"what?"

"Don't you understand? Four steps represent my attack range."

The next second, a sharp, almost invisible blade of light slashed through the air!

The adventurer didn't even have time to scream before he collapsed heavily to the ground, covered in blood.

All the girls present narrowed their eyes slightly.

Amazing! This level of strength far surpasses that of ordinary adventurers!

Alphia glanced at it briefly, then quickly looked away, clearly bored.

Liu, on the other hand, stared at the other person warily, her slender fingers already quietly gripping the wooden sword at her waist.

"This guy is at least level 4, no, level 3. His swordsmanship is on par with Kaguya's!"

After doing all this, the masked man ignored everyone and spoke directly to Taluvi.

"Your Highness, the goddess Vera is almost here; it's time for us to go."

Metalia looked at Tarluvi, who had his head down, in astonishment.

"Are you... going back to your country?"

Taluvi took a deep breath, raised her head, and forced a bright smile.

"Yes... I originally planned to stay at Orario's Night Festival for a few more days, but since there's no festival here and it's dangerous, I can't be too reckless."

She looked around, her gaze sweeping over everyone who had played with her all morning, finally stopping on Rhodes, a hint of reluctance and longing flashing in her eyes.

"I've made many friends without even realizing it, which is really great."

"Although I've said it several times, it really feels like a dream! This is the most colorful and happiest time of my life..."

"There is nothing happier than meeting you all and becoming your friends!"

Adi was also a little reluctant and held Taluvi's hand.

"Can't we stay for another day or two?"

Taluvi shook her head, her eyes filled with a determination beyond her years.

"Although I really want to continue playing with everyone, I also have my duties as [Princess]."

Just then, the crisp sound of horses' hooves approached from afar.

The goddess, draped in a black robe trimmed with gold, descended slowly, her long, straight, misty blue hair cascading like a waterfall, swaying gently in the wind, with two longer strands gracefully falling to either side of her body.

Below the slightly upturned eyes, there are three small red dots arranged in a downward-facing triangle.

This unique facial pattern gives her an appearance that combines the primitive beauty of a tribe with a sense of sacred ritual.

However, the moment she opened her mouth, she completely destroyed that beauty.

"Ugh, Orario is so far away, it's such a hassle, my back hurts so much."

She rubbed her lower back and complained, completely lacking any goddess-like composure.

"Speaking of which, to have the goddess go out of her way to pick you up, that's quite the treatment a princess receives! The supreme god is like a fart to you—"

"Taluvi~ I came all this way to pick you up, so thank me!"

Taluvi ran over happily.

"Vera, you really came! Thank you!"

Amid couldn't help but tug at Rhodes' sleeve and mutter a complaint in a low voice.

"This goddess is like someone who psychologically inherited Loki's personality, but physically inherited Hestia's."

Vera, with her sharp ears, immediately turned around and retorted unhappily.

"Ha, you mean Hestia? I'm not that short!"

"hateful--!!!"

At this moment, Hestia, who had been following everyone all morning, could no longer hold back and jumped out, glaring angrily at Vera.

"You're still the same as ever, [Honest] Vera!"

"Oh, isn't this Hestia I just mentioned? I've always had a strong impression of you, because I hate you, you know."

"What did you say?! Why do you suddenly hate me?!" Hestia was so angry that she jumped up and down, completely unable to understand Vera's logic.

"Is this a question for me? It is a question, right? Then there's nothing I can do but answer you out of mercy."

Vera's smile vanished, replaced by a look of disgust and utter disdain as she stared at Hestia.

"Because your compassion is infuriating."

Hestia clenched her little fists, but then sighed helplessly.

"After not seeing you for thousands of years, you suddenly say this upon our reunion?"

Vera grinned mischievously.

0 ··Requesting flowers··· ········

"Because you asked me a question, and since I was asked a question, I have to answer it. After all, I don't lie."

Rivera looked puzzled.

"You can't lie?"

Hestia crossed her arms and said unhappily.

"It's like this, although it's harsh to say, but Vera is a very strange god. She will answer your questions, but while her answers are true..."

"But she also subtly disturbs the other person's mind, making them suspicious. She never lies, so she is also known as 'a wicked but honest person'!"

Rhodes's gaze swept over her "cotton candy" breasts, which were just as beautiful as Hestia's.

His nickname is "Honest Man," but his physique is anything but honest.

And... if you want to be called that, at least make your hair green like Rivera next to you.

Vera shrugged.

"No matter how many times I hear it, I feel that it is such an excessive nickname. I am just living honestly, but some people with strong paranoia just keep making noise."

"Besides, Hestia, you hate me too, right? Then we're even, there's no point in us both getting along."

"Ugh! You're right, I really hate places like this! It's infuriating."

Hestia was thoroughly humiliated. With a quick twitch, she shoved Riveria, who was standing next to Rhode, aside and then pretended to cry, acting all cute and affectionate towards Rhode.

"Luo Dejun~~ Look at this guy bullying me~~~ You have to help me get revenge!"

Vera looked at Rod with great interest.

"Young man, what would you do?"

"You can answer questions and you can't lie, right?"

"You want to ask me a question? That's right!"

Rod squinted, looking at Vera with a half-smile.

Vera met his gaze without backing down.

In this lower realm, there are a total of four clearly defined artifacts or divine gifts.

During the time of the Knights of Finana, there was the mysterious chain that bound Minos (the Chains of Heaven), and the Sword of Oath held by King Kormac.

The lock's power is domination, but the price is the sacrifice of the user's blood relatives; the higher the bloodline concentration, the more effective it is.

The Sword of Oath can force the other party to obey after an oath is signed, at the cost of receiving a pair of prophecies for each oath signed.

These two gifts from heaven were utterly useless to him; there was no need to seek them out at all.

The Orion Arrow is a clearly defined divine weapon.
