Zongman: The wrong person on the ground, double Shenwei at the beginning

Hestia rubbed her hands together, and with each step she took forward, the ground seemed to tremble slightly.

The terrifying aura emanating from her even made Ais instinctively feel afraid, and she quickly grabbed Riveria's leg.

"You actually dare to say something like that in front of a virgin goddess!"

"Want to fight? I'm really strong, you know... Hey, wait, wait a minute, you're really going to fight?! Damn it, don't underestimate me! Waaah... What's going on? You're actually this strong?!"

"Hmph, don't think I'm just freeloading in the mortal realm. You have no idea how many fierce battles I've fought with my nemesis, the evil god, that I risked my life for respect!"

"Eh...Eh? Is this really necessary?!"

Adi scratched her head and secretly glanced at Rivera, whose eyes revealed a "it's right" feeling.

"Lady Riveria, the nemesis that Goddess Hestia spoke of... could it be referring to..."

Riveria nodded frankly in agreement.

"Ah, that's right. It's my family's chief god, Loki."

"..."

"These two goddesses fight every time they meet, but for some reason good luck has always been on Hestia's side. So far, she has never lost and always beats Loki to the ground."

Adi couldn't help but want to complain.

Why are you about to burst out laughing when your own god gets beaten up?

If Riveria knew what she was thinking, she would naturally tell her.

That's because if that's the case, Loki will be preoccupied with how to get revenge on Hestia instead of finding ways to torment the other members of the Familia.

At that moment, Astraea suddenly ran to the side of the battlefield between the two gods.

Vera's eyes lit up, thinking the other person had come to rescue her.

It's perfectly reasonable for the goddess of justice to disapprove of the strong bullying the weak!

At least, wait until she gets the Staff of Winter back, then find a chance to beat her up!

Astrea simply pretended to be nonchalant and tossed a stick in front of Hestia.

"Oh dear... what an accident! What if someone uses this stick to beat up someone else?"

Vera's eyes widened, and she cried out in terror.

"Hey! Aren't you the goddess of justice?"

Astraea stood with her hands on her hips, looking very serious.

"Yes, so don't worry, I will preside over your battle and ensure that the refereeing is fair and impartial!"

Vera felt like she was going to vomit blood.

Damn! This refereeing is so blatantly corrupt, they're not even bothering to pretend anymore!

Hestia laughed triumphantly, looking up at the sky.

The referees are all my people, how can you fight me?

"Idiot, this is just a little lesson for you. It'll teach you not to underestimate a virgin goddess. You should thank me!"

"Huh? I got beaten up and I'm supposed to thank you? Are you kidding me!"

"Hmph, after all, this time it was just the kind and gentle Astraea and me. Next time, if you mess with Artemis, you'll be in real trouble!"

“…Hmm.”

Ryu looked at the goddess of justice, who was completely different from what she remembered, and instantly turned into a statue, her eyes wavering.

"W-How could this be... This isn't the Lady Astrea I know... Could it be that she's been infected by the goddess Hestia's idiotic temperament?"

Rod shook his head with a wry smile.

The gods in this world have never been pedantic beings bound by power.

Even those who wield the power of evil gods can be kind and gentle, and even benevolent gods who wield positive power can be ruthless and decisive.

Furthermore, if one feels that what is being done is not just, then why not redefine what justice is as the goddess of justice?

The battle here ended quickly, but it caused a disturbance.

If it weren't for the presence of Rhodes, a large number of his clansmen would probably have already attacked.

The fact that these people dared to openly fight on the streets during the most exciting time of the Holy Night Festival shows that they truly don't take the adventurers of Orario seriously.

At that moment, a tall, beautiful woman with short, swaying blue hair slowly walked over.

"Although I know it's over, could you please tell me what happened?"

Her blue hair was neatly cut at the neck, and she wore a combat suit of the same color.

He was taller than Liu and the others, and had a sharp face, the kind of sharpness unique to those at the top of the organization.

"sister!"

Adi happily pounced on it.

Shakti hugged Adi tightly, frowning reproachfully.

"Adi, I've told you several times not to address me like that when other people are around. Use my job title when we're working!"

Adi stuck out her tongue as if she was reflecting on her actions.

"Ah, sorry, plants~"

"..."

Shakti didn't say anything more about her sister's attitude, which was much younger than her, and just sighed.

"So what's going on?"

Adi, who was usually absolutely obedient to her older sister, did not answer immediately, but instead looked at Rod standing to the side.

After seeing him nod, Adi breathed a sigh of relief and told Shakti what had happened.

Looking at her sister, who was almost completely turning into that guy's appearance, Shakti felt a complex mix of emotions, as if her precious treasure had been stolen.

After learning the whole story, Shakti frowned and glanced at Berden and his group, who were receiving treatment from Amid not far away (they had already paid).

As the leader of the entire Familia in Orario, Shakti was more rational than the girls present.

If it were her, for the sake of all the people of Orario, she would most likely make the same choice as them...

Even if the sacrifice would be his most cherished younger sister...

Shakti felt a deep contempt and disgust for her own thoughts, and a bitter smile appeared on her face.

Mysterious and powerful was her first impression of Rhodes.

Later, knowing the other party's undisguised philandering and subtle breaches of etiquette, he subconsciously kept his distance.

But now, she suddenly felt a little envious, and even a little admiring of Rhodes.

I wouldn't care if I had to go against the world for the people I care about.

Given his overwhelming strength, his womanizing actually becomes an advantage.

After all, if this kind of guy really only chooses one and only partner, then who in the entire Orario could be qualified?

Shakti was silent for a moment, then turned to look at Adi, who was snuggling in his arms, and stroked her hair.

"Adi, you mentioned before that Rhodes invited you to go to Orario for training...?"

Upon hearing this, Adi immediately tensed up and nervously observed her sister's expression.

"No, is it not allowed...?"

Shakti smiled gently.

“After you come back with me this time, I will ask the Lord God to allow you to convert to another religion.”

"...Huh?"

"Whether it's the Hestia Familia or the Astrea Familia, it's fine. As long as they're protected by that man."

"Wait, wait a minute, why are you suddenly saying something like that!"

"Doesn't Adi want to be in the same clan as Rhodes?"

"Hmm...but this is so sudden...and I also want to stay with my older sister forever!"

Adi blushed and clung to Shakti, acting coquettishly.

Upon hearing this, Shakti subconsciously glanced at Rhodes again, only to meet his gaze.

Rod smiled and nodded at her, and Shakti couldn't help but feel her heart flutter.

Are you going to go with Adi?

The thought that stirred within him was instantly suppressed.

No, I still have a duty to protect Orario!

Chapter 141 Orario suffers, but Rhodes suffers the most~ (Please subscribe and vote~)

Shakti thought to herself.

My life belongs to Orario, at least until I have trained the next generation capable of taking on the role of leader.

But Adi was different. This innocent and kind-hearted child believed that no matter what dire straits she faced, only Rod could forever protect her overly pure heart.

"Alright, it's settled then."

Rida, who slowly awoke from his coma, heard the whole story and slumped against the wall, a complex bitter smile appearing on his face, which eventually turned into a sigh.

"We guys... are the boring noise."

Riveria was extremely efficient and quickly brought over an extra-large luxury carriage that the Loki Familia had once commissioned.

The size was practically like a small mobile villa. Rhodes and his group, along with Vera who insisted on squeezing in, all sat on it, and there was still plenty of room.

Uscare had originally intended to give up their carriage, but then he saw that Rhodes seemed to have been preparing for a long journey for some time.

He exchanged a helpless glance with the knights behind him, and they all sighed.

Only then did he belatedly realize that he had been completely outmaneuvered by that man, and that all his value had been squeezed out of him.

What a waste of hundreds of years of life...

The goddess Astrea chose to stay in Orario. She smiled and waved, her long walnut hair fluttering in the wind, her gentle eyes filled with anticipation for their triumphant return.

Since the main purpose of this trip was training, Alphia seemed unusually interested, and could also teach them cultivation along the way, so Rhodes did not teleport directly there.

Of course, Rhodes also needs to cultivate.

He rested his head on Hestia's soft, supple legs, his black twin tails occasionally brushing playfully against his cheeks.

Vera picked up a crystal-clear grape with her slender fingers and occasionally brought it to his lips.

While chatting with the fairy royals about the splendor of the fairy kingdom, he would occasionally reach out and precisely pat Ais and Adi's heads, eliciting adorable reactions from them, whether shy or curious.

This corrupt and decadent lifestyle is truly a great training ground for people!

He's working so hard! Let him suffer a little longer!

The journey took about two or three days.

During this time, Ais, Ryu, and Adi all received guidance from Alphia.

In some ways, the Empress was right.

Alphia is not suited to be an instructor.

But if the students are a group of talented individuals, then the outcome is another matter entirely.

Metalia also learned some martial arts, and although she still had a bit of the feeling of a thug's excited punch, she was getting stronger at a visible speed.

Rivera's wise blue eyes seemed to have already seen through Alphia's true identity.

She glanced at Alphia several times, her beautiful brows furrowing slightly, but ultimately chose not to expose her.

"Mr. Rhodes, ladies, Your Majesty, we have arrived in the Kingdom of Bergen."

Taluvi's voice trembled slightly as she lifted the carriage curtain and led the way with mixed feelings.
