I like traveling the most

Freya has been in a bad mood recently because the child she cares about has been taken away from her.

And there are still two of them!

As a goddess of beauty who is famous in the heaven for toying with all the male gods, she does not regard the people of the lower world who have the same level of beauty as the goddess as a rival.

But as time goes by, one child (Bell) can only be seen every morning, and the other child (Xiao Lin) no longer appears at all.

In fact, Meishen misunderstood. It wasn't that Xiao Lin didn't show up, but that he didn't have time to show up because of various troubles.

Starting with an attack on the 18th security floor, Xiaolin was entrusted by the sky god Ouranos and the Loki Familia to go on an expedition. In order to become stronger and not become a hindrance, he had to immerse himself in the dungeon and farm monsters to improve his proficiency.

Interspersed with the riots on the 24th floor, he had no free time at all.

God doesn't care about beauty.

She arbitrarily determined that the culprit of everything was the princess of the Loki Familia.

——Sword Princess Ais.

And as Xiaolin and Aisi danced (battled) on the city wall, Meishen could no longer sit still.

The children you care about must not be touched by others.

With this idea in mind, Freya said softly: "I said, don't you think they are a little too close? I'm grateful for the help and guidance, but being too close will hinder growth."

The child's jealous tone, with a hint of jealousy, spread across the room.

It is self-evident what Meishen wants to do.

If the fierce man was around, he might still be able to persuade him, but he was arranged to prepare Bell for the trial, and the remaining members of the Freya family were all captives of the God of Beauty, and no matter what was asked of them, they would be satisfied.

therefore……

"Alan, go give her a little warning."

"As you command, Lady Freya."

————

"So, you know, stay away from me!"

"……Um?"

The endless warning made Sword Girl Ais tilt her head.

The naturally stupid girl really didn't understand why she was being said like this, but her expressionless face seemed like a provocation, causing the cat people to grin immediately.

In his right hand he held a black spear over two meters long.

Facing the mad and ferocious cat that seemed to bite a mouse to death despite its owner's reprimands, Sword Girl Ais slowly drew out the thin sword from her waist.

Kobayashi stood in front of Bell and Hestia.

Because he discovered that there was not only this fierce cat hiding in the darkness, but also four powerful dwarf brothers.

On the field, Sword Lady and the cat people looked at each other.

The next moment!

With a bang, violent murderous aura emerged from the cat people, and they stepped lightly on the stone slabs and approached them.

Xiao Lin moved his fingers slightly, and in the blink of an eye, the threads covered the entire street.

In this kind of terrain, his weapons can maximize their strength. However, what I didn't expect was that the opponent was as dexterous as a cat, relying on his own hard power to avoid all the traps by twisting and turning.

"Tsk."

He smacked his tongue softly unwillingly.

It’s amazing to be at LV6, it’s amazing to be a cat-human!

The cat people approaching instantly raised their spears and were about to attack in less than a second. Sword Girl Ais also intercepted them at super speed to prevent him from succeeding.

Even if he is a veteran LV6, he cannot ignore the existence of Sword Lady.

Bang!

The silver rapier flashed and slashed at the emergency defensive spear, bursting out bright and bright sparks and repelling the attacker from in front of everyone.

The cat people were beaten and flew backwards.

It's really flying.

He fell backwards lightly and landed on the floor, seemingly unharmed.

Sword Queen Ais silently took a step forward, raised her golden eyes, and focused on the enemies who were waiting for them here.

Since we are enemies, we must show our true abilities!

The attacker steadied his body and met the eyes of Sword Queen Ais.

Then, both sides ran towards each other at the same time.

The two engage in ultra-fast hand-to-hand combat, preemption and counterattack, consecutive strikes and defense, dodge and pursuit. Whenever the bodies of the two sides intersect, the speed increases even more, and you come and I don't give in to each other.

For the time being, it seemed that they were evenly matched, but Xiaolin was keenly aware that Sword Princess Ais could barely suppress her opponent in terms of speed.

Even though he has just upgraded to LV6, the advantage of high agility attribute is finally reflected every time he upgrades.

Not to mention, she has the blessing of the wind.

Under the night, Sword Princess Ais's hands were wrapped in an invisible green whirlwind, and her already super-fast speed suddenly became one minute faster.

The cat people who couldn't keep up with the pace froze for a moment, and Sword Queen Ace spotted this moment.

Keep the distance and swing your sword!

Tear--

The sharp sword slashed the black breastplate of the catman. If he hadn't leaned back at the critical moment, his chest would have been divided into two halves.

Sword Princess Ais' long golden hair was gently blown up.

The wind wrapped around her.

The young man from the cat tribe who was beaten back smacked his tongue in a low voice.

"Tsk... what a monster."

Seeing the amazing skills and short-term tactics that exceeded her abilities, the cat people were filled with resentment towards the girl with blond hair and golden eyes.

The old strong man lost to the newcomer.

It’s weird to be in a good mood.

The cat people jumped back lightly and flew to the rafters, where there were four small humans.

Sword Girl Ais narrowed her eyes.

What was the purpose of this raid?

Was it a night attack targeting the cadres of the largest faction in the city?

Faced with the enemy that was attacking involuntarily, Ais thought that a more fierce battle would break out, but the catman with a spear in his hand spoke under the mask.

"—I'm warning you, Sword Princess! From now on, you are not allowed to meddle in others' affairs."

"……Um?"

The meaningless words made Sword Girl Ais's brows twist in confusion.

This is already the second time.

She couldn't help but ask: "What does this mean?"

"I'm just telling you, no matter it's an expedition or anything else, don't let me come out of the maze, you female doll! It's better to die by the way!"

The cat-human replied in a rude tone.

As if threatening, the five people simultaneously exuded dangerous murderous aura.

But the target was not her, but Kobayashi behind him and Bell and Hestia who were protected.

"Eh?!"

Hestia subconsciously hugged Bell.

The powerful attacker frightened her, and she was also worried that Bell, whom she cared about, would be injured.

Seeing that the two people were scared, the five people above seemed very satisfied.

The cat people continued to threaten unhappily: "This is a warning! If you dare to interfere with that adult's flowers, we will kill you!"

Then the five people disappeared into the night with a 'retreat' sound.

Sword Queen Ais had no intention of pursuing them rashly, but she still didn't put down her weapons even after they disappeared. It wasn't until Xiaolin nodded to her to signal the enemy to go away that she finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She still had some energy left to fight the cat people, but once the five people swarmed her, she couldn't take care of the people behind her.

"Are you injured?"

"No, no."

The target of this attack had always been her, as if she was deliberately avoiding Bell. The three of them looked like outsiders except for their nervous expressions.

"Who are those people? They suddenly attacked us..."

Bell asked slightly uneasily.

Even though he seems calm at first glance, you can still tell that he wants to hide his feelings.

Sword Girl said calmly: "Night attacks are very common."

"Is it often?!"

"Yeah, but it's quite unusual to take action outside the dungeon."

"How could..."

Bell couldn't hold back after hearing this.

This kind of high-intensity battle happens every night. If he encounters it, his life will be long gone!

But this is nothing to worry about.

→

Bell is currently not involved in the factional struggle among the clan, so he will not be attacked.

Sword Princess Ais still thinks that the enemy's target is herself.

And my mind is thinking quickly.

Did he come here specifically to attack me who left the family alone?

Looking back at the previous attacker's warning, it seems that she unknowingly offended that faction during her actions, causing Xiaolin and Bell's knowledge to be compromised.

Hestia asked, "Are there any suspects regarding your attacker, Ms. Warren?"

"...There are too many, but I can't lift them out."

The naturally dumb Sword Girl shook her head and gave an unclear answer.

The Loki Familia is the largest faction in the city, and in the process of growing into the largest faction, they are bound to offend many enemies.

"You guys really know how to cause trouble."

Hestia complained dumbfoundedly.

Sword Princess Ace was thinking about the attacker while talking to her. Suddenly she found that Xiaolin had not spoken since just now, and now he was standing still, which made her very curious.

"Xiao Lin, what's wrong?"

"...No, it's nothing."

The sudden shout caused Xiao Lin, who had his head raised, to move his shoulders. He looked back and shook his head calmly, and quickly caught up with him.

It looks sparse and normal, but something feels wrong.

Sword Princess Aisi subconsciously turned her gaze to where Xiao Lin was looking up just now.

The center of the labyrinth city.

The huge white tower stood in the moonlit night, overlooking her, Xiao Lin and the others.

Could it be...!

The cat-people whose strength is equal to hers and the four dwarfs with distinctive characteristics are reminiscent of the previous meeting between the God of Beauty and Loki in an uninhabited tavern.

Putting all the conditions together, the answer seems to be right in front of you.

————

The fierce Otta appeared in the middle level.

Although I don’t know what his purpose is, he is indeed in the middle level now.

This is the information obtained by the Loki Familia.

In order to carry out the Familia expedition smoothly, all uncertain factors must be eliminated as soon as possible, not to mention that the uncertain factors still come from that Familia.

"We thought at first that he would not affect our family's expedition, but now it seems that the situation is slightly different."

Riveria said worriedly.

When Sword Princess Ais returned to the Familia and told the story about the attack on her and the suspicion that Krillin was the target of the Freya Familia, she got this strange information.

"Could it be that the recent events are all related to the Freya Familia?"

Whether it was a weirdo or an attack, the culprit behind the scenes has never been identified.

At this time, the Freya family, which seemed to have nothing to do with it, intervened, which inevitably made her suspicious.

"Probably impossible, that's Freya."

Loki gave a clear answer.

Based on her understanding of the soul-obsessed God of Beauty, most of the time this was done for other purposes and had nothing to do with weirdos or expeditions.

If that's the case, then it's just Xiaolin.

He recalled what he said when he and Loki met Freya before, and what happened to Xiaolin just now.

"Ais...Ais!"

"What's wrong."

"Why are you in a daze? I'm asking you, are you ready for the expedition? Are you already familiar with the power of LV6?"

"Um."

Sword Girl Ais nodded and hid her inner suspicion.

other side.

The 9th floor of the dungeon.

Otta is training the minotaur in front of him.

Different from the ordinary LV2 Minotaur, this one is obviously stronger in terms of momentum and strength.

Even so, he still felt unhappy.

Too weak, too weak, too weak!

Falling far short of his goal.

Even at this moment, with his feet off the ground and being pushed against the corridor by the horns of a bull, the expression on his face was still filled with disgust.

A mere tauren couldn't hurt him at all.

What angered Horta the most was that the Minotaur still retained the habits of a beast.

Even if it is given weapons, even if it is taught how to fight, once it is in crisis, the tauren will subconsciously follow its instinct and use its body to fight.

This won't work!

Monsters have limits, and even a weak person can easily defeat them if their flaws are discovered.

(Just like when Xiaolin defeated the Headless Horseman)

Therefore, bad habits must be eliminated.

After a short period of contemplation, Horta grasped the Minotaur's horns, not giving it a chance to break free and resist. A terrifying force surged from his wrist, and with a snap, he gave the Minotaur its proud horns. Broken.

“ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!”

The Minotaur roared loudly in pain, and at the same time, his heart was once again clouded by fear.

It wants to escape!

Escape from this place and this dangerous man.

However, Ota just looked at it indifferently and threw the fallen sword over.

"Pick it up."

"……roar."

Even the Minotaur, who didn't have much wisdom, could intuitively understand that this man would never let it go easily.

Unless the goal is achieved.

With anger, Minotaros picked up the sword from the ground.

Just as he was about to slash again, a burst of slaps suddenly came from the corridor on the other side.

Bang bang bang——

One person and one beast looked there.

"What an excellent training. But why didn't I know that Otta-san has changed from a full-time adventurer to a trainer? Or are you leaving the [Freya Familia] and joining the [Ganesha Familia]?"

There was a touch of sarcasm in the frivolous tone.

A figure came from the darkness of the passage, and his face could be seen through the magic stone.

"Xiao Lin."

Otta called his name coldly and asked, "Why are you here?"

"That's my problem." Xiao Lin shrugged and said, "The LV7 warrior will appear in the middle level. If others find out, they will definitely feel something is wrong."

Ota was silent and did not answer.

Xiao Lin pretended to be aggrieved and said: "That's too much, Mr. Ota. Are you the kind of person who forgets the old love when you have a new love?"

Originally, the two would give guidance in the main room of Goliath's floor on the 17th floor every seven days, but Otta accepted Freya's task of training the Minotaur, so he had no choice but to give up the guidance.

However, they did not have a clear agreement, everything was just a tacit understanding between each other.

Xiao Lin said this just to disgust Otta on purpose.

"Actually, I was attacked just now. It wasn't just me, there was another person."

The words were vague, but Xiao Lin knew that he must understand who he was talking about.

——Bell.

It was because of the trial for that cowardly rabbit that Ota appeared in the middle level.

But Ota really didn’t know about the attack.

Can only respond with silence.

Xiao Lin also saw that he really didn't know, so he could only complain: "It's understandable to pamper that child, but please don't go too far. It won't be good if others are involved."

Menghu Ota remained silent.

But the words have been brought.

When Xiao Lin turned around and left, Ota suddenly said: "The lower level is not as easy as you think."

This is both advice and worry. A strong man who is not good at words can only use this method to express his concern.

Xiao Lin waved his hand and disappeared into the passage.

Looking at his back, Ota fell silent again, not knowing what he was thinking.

Unlike other guys in the family who have brain problems, Otta can understand the gains and losses better. But even so, if it was Freya's request, no matter what it was, he would definitely satisfy it.

The same goes for wanting other children.

Looking back, he looked at the panting Minotaur. In order to complete the mission of the goddess, one man and one beast fought fiercely again.
