"Lord Roland... No, from now on, the entire Soma clan will be completely under your control. Except for the people who handle daily affairs, everyone else will start hunting adventurers according to your will. We will also transfer the income from the divine wine to you."

"Um……"

Roland nodded without comment. "Let's put the divine wine aside first. Take me to have a look."

"Yes."

-

In the spacious room, in addition to the windows, there are cabinets large enough to cover the entire wall, which contain young plant seedlings and transparent wine bottles.

The god named Soma seemed not to notice the explosion outside or the sound of the door opening. He did not even turn his head and silently mixed the bottle in his hand.

As long as he has the ingredients to make cocktails in front of him, he won't care about anything happening outside.

As he moved, an intoxicating aroma of wine slowly filled the room. Behind him, many finished products were already placed.

“Although there is occasionally divine wine circulating outside, it is basically inferior products that have been eliminated. The real divine wine, apart from me occasionally selling some to the gods, can only be tasted by members of the Soma clan.”

In the outside world, the sacred wine of the Soma clan is a valuable hard currency and is widely praised. Many adventurers and gods are chasing after it, exchanging their hard-earned magic power for a moment of indulgence in a cup.

Since those obsolete products whose effects and taste are far inferior to the real ones can produce such an effect, it is not surprising that the Soma clan has developed to this day.

But Roland ignored Chanis's words and stared at Soma's actions. Although he also had the talent of a super high school bartender, there was no doubt that the disqualified Lord God in front of him was far better than him in this aspect.

Although he still had the body of a mortal, Soma used techniques and combinations that seemed to be at the level of an artist to demonstrate his qualifications to be in the realm of gods.

"Huh...what an unexpected gain."

Roland took a deep breath, picked up a wine bottle next to Soma, and opened the cork.

In an instant, a mellow and wonderful smell filled the entire room, carrying a hint of temptation and even urging. Upon smelling this smell, Lily's face turned pale and she grabbed Roland's collar.

Roland shook the bottle and drank it all in one gulp, while Lily looked at him in surprise.

The next moment, an incomparable feeling of intoxication began to sweep over his consciousness, as if all his worries and sorrows had gone away. An extreme pleasure as if he was standing on the clouds filled Roland's mouth and gradually spread throughout his body.

With this kind of wine, there is no need for hypnosis or coercion. Even if the evil of this world is put in it, ordinary people will not resist the temptation and will drink it obediently and go crazy for it.

In a sense, the importance of this resource to Roland cannot be underestimated.

"Besides, this always gives me a sense of déjà vu... The so-called grace is not just a process of allowing talented people to get closer to the gods step by step, right?"

Because super high school level talents are beyond the limits of common sense, Roland was able to sense the gap between him and the skill of mixing this divine wine even if he became a mortal.

This is the best proof that possibility becomes reality and interferes with reality.

"It seems that favors are more valuable than I thought."

Roland looked at the empty wine glass in his hand with some reluctance and snapped his fingers. Then, a shadow ninja holding a tray brought Roland his inventory.

—A plate of candy bars that looked like industrial products.

Roland picked up two of them and put them in his mouth, feeling the rich, cheap sweetness combined with the lingering fragrance in his mouth, which produced a burning sensation. He squinted his eyes comfortably.

"Cheap sugar really tastes good with the divine wine."

Then he turned his head and looked at Chanis.

"Next, keep a good stock of all the sacred wines and provide sufficient materials. Since he likes to brew wine, let him brew as much as he wants."

After glancing at Su Mo who was still unaware, Roland put a bottle of wine in his pocket and walked out with a few people.

“I want to make this wine popular all over the world…”

"But...Lord Roland,"

Hearing this, Chanis felt a little conflicted.

"The stock of the sacred wine is limited. At Lord Soma's speed, at most it will become popular throughout Orario, and then it will be unsustainable."

This is not a lie, the Soma clan also wants to make money, but the Soma's manufacturing speed is limited. Even if they take out their own share, it will at most be enough for Orario's consumption.

"Idiot, I'm not trying to make people addicted, I just want them to drink it. It doesn't matter if they don't buy it a second time, just add some water to reduce the amount. As for the price..."

Roland thought for a while and quoted a rather cheap number.

"With such low profits, it's not hard to make it popular, but the number of people is expected to increase, making it more difficult to supply."

"Then just add some wine to the water."

Before Roland traveled through time, he had been deeply impressed by the way some big-name milk brands operated in this way.

"If that's the case, then it should be fine."

Chanis calculated calmly and finally came to a positive conclusion.

"That's good, let's do it quickly. I want this malice to spread quickly throughout the world."

Roland's voice became more expectant, and after Chanis left, he turned around and looked at Lily, who was looking shocked.

"Next, it's time to fulfill your wish."

From a poor little girl who just wanted to change her clan to one of the masterminds who subverted the world, she must be feeling mixed emotions now. However, smart children are easy to get along with, and until now, Lily is still very well-behaved.

Seeing this, Roland casually picked up a bowl, slowly poured Soma's magic wine into it, and then, under Lily's gaze, gently dripped a drop of chaotic black mud.

"Drink, Lilyluka, this is your fate."

"But, Lord Roland, what is the price?"

Lily took the wine bowl and stared at the clear wine that had no trace of black mud and reflected her face, as if she was trying to find some answer.

"From now on, you belong to me."

Roland gave the answer with a smile.

"Yeah……"

As if relieved, Lily no longer hesitated and drank the clear divine wine in one gulp.

Amid the burning sensation of the sacred words on her back and the ecstatic feeling, the only thing left in her mind was Roland's last words.

"Welcome to join the Holy Lord's clan."

Chapter 128: Upgrade and Great Deeds

"The upper limit... has been broken?"

Hestia didn't know what expression she should make. Even though she was a god who had lived for hundreds of millions of years and was accustomed to most things, she couldn't understand the situation in front of her.

It had only been less than two days, but Roland's ability had already grown to an incredible level.

The Favored

Over the past thousand years, based on the development of grace by geniuses of different eras, the gods have concluded that the upper limit of ability value is S-level. Perhaps in theory there are higher levels, but no one has witnessed the emergence of this statement.

Even many years ago, those more outstanding children who had reached level 8 and 9 did not break this rule.

And now, Roland broke this limit in less than five days.

Not only that, if Roland, who is already so powerful at level 1, continues to improve, what level will he reach in the end?

For Hestia, this was more like witnessing the ascension of a new god than the birth of a hero.

Even she could sense the unfathomable abnormality in Roland.

But after truly understanding this, Hestia calmed down, her cheeks flushed, and her eyes narrowed happily.

Time has no meaning to God.

Some people will be remembered forever after just meeting for one day, while some gods just cannot get along even after living together for millions of years.

For gods, following their own wishes is the greatest pleasure in life.

Hestia knew very well that Roland was her first family and someone who had special meaning to her, and that was enough.

You no longer have to work hard, no longer have to live under someone else's roof, you can be proud of yourself in the assembly, look forward to tomorrow every day, and have a goal to strive for.

This warm emotion filled Hestia's entire heart.

"Congratulations, Roland-kun."

So she didn't ask any questions, but just expressed her feelings sincerely.

"Thank you, Hestia."

Roland sat up and moved as before, but his body could now unleash a completely different power.

"I should have met the requirements for upgrading now."

Upgrading is the most critical ability of the Grace technique.

Ordinary people have limited possibilities. Even if they have experience points as a boost, they will eventually be extracted completely and they will not be able to grow no matter what. This is a sign that the body has reached its limit.

At this time, what is needed is an upgrade, which can broaden the user's possibilities based on the current situation, allow them to undergo transformation, and add more room for evolution.

But for Roland, it means widening the valve that promotes growth, allowing him to convert his own power with higher efficiency.

In addition to the most basic quality requirement for upgrading, which is to have at least one basic ability reach the D stage, the second condition is the real condition that traps more than half of the level 1 adventurers who occupy Orario.

—Achieve a great feat.

The most intuitive great achievement is to defeat the strong with the weak, or to accomplish some heroic feats.

However, if the great cause is really limited in such a rigid way, Roland may have to rely on killing a god to level up. Otherwise, it will be more difficult to find an opponent in the dungeon who can help him defeat the strong with the weak.

"Roland-kun, you don't have to worry. The so-called great deeds are also a kind of experience points. They are the key to broadening possibilities."

Hestia explained to Roland: "As long as you do something that makes the gods admire you, or tell stories that amaze the world, it can become the nourishment for your leveling up. In fact, if you are alone in the dungeon and continue to clear monsters and reach the lower level, it would be more than enough for other children to reach level 2 or 3."

"But courage isn't enough, is it?"

Roland said with a hint of emotion: "The so-called true great deeds, in addition to their own quality, whether they can arouse a reputation that will make the gods roar is also an important factor."

"After all, we are the bored gods, so we have to take some fun elements into account."

Hestia admitted this confidently, causing Roland to touch her head helplessly.

"There's no time to lose. Since you want fame, I'll give it a try. I heard it's been quite a while since the last expedition."

"You're thinking?"

"As a rookie who hasn't even had a week to receive the favor, going to fight against the floor master should be considered the first page of the journey in the legend of heroes."

-

The next morning, when Roland arrived at the Tower of Babel, he found an unexpected scene.

The central square in front of the tower was unusually packed with people.

A group of prepared adventurers were sorting supplies and checking equipment, as if they were not affected by the noise around them at all.

In front of this group of adventurers, a flag was erected.It has a clown embroidered on it.

Even adventurers who are new to Orario can recognize the meaning of this symbol.

"Loki's family is about to launch an expedition!"
