With further investigation into that Familia, Ishtar, who had prepared various dangerous back-up plans, was quickly listed by him and Loki as a dangerous person who might harm Orario. (Note: Hermes and the other two gods would meet from time to time in Orario, so the information was basically exchanged. And because Loki had just completed his second exploration of the man-made maze, the incident happened suddenly and he was unable to start a dialogue. Follow-up investigation by the Ishtar Familia.)

Because it is judged that Ishtar may have lost control due to excessive jealousy, which indirectly led to the destruction of Labyrinth City. Therefore, he used his connections as a neutral family member to arrange follow-up plans as much as possible to see if he could influence or hinder them.

However, before he could attract Freya's attention and divert the conflict, a fight suddenly broke out.

"So are you here for entertainment? Or is it a so-called trial?"

"No matter what, I want to get the answer from you today..."

Hearing his child's question that pointed to the core of the problem, Hermes sighed, first pressed the brim of his hat helplessly, and then showed the corners of his mouth raised.

"Isn't Orario okay now? Relax..."

"To be honest with you, I actually didn't expect things to turn into this situation, Yasifei."

"It's definitely impossible to say that I want to entertain. After all, we gods with sealed "divine power" are not "omniscient and omnipotent"."

Staring at the smoky ruins in the distance, Hermes continued to speak.

"When facing the 'unknown' in the lower world, we gods are actually no different from you who are fragile..."

"Then why do you still..."

Determined to break the casserole and get to the bottom of it, Asfi vowed to get the final answer to this dangerous conflict from Hermes today.

However, in response to the child's question, Hermes took a long breath and then smiled.

"Is it a commission? Since you want to know so much, I'll tell you."

After standing up from the railing on which he was lying, and turning around to lean on it, Hermes met the eyes of the blue-haired girl.

"That commission was just a test, Yasphi..."

Yes, if you, a stupid boy, hadn't handed over the things honestly, I would have given the unfinished items to the other party.

How could he hand over such a dangerous thing?

Although he claims to be a neutral god who fulfills 100% of his commissions, he, Hermes, is not the kind of god who doesn't care about himself or others.

Returning unfinished items is of course a form of completing the commission in disguise.

Although it was full of deception, they also contributed, didn't they?

And he hasn't stayed in the lower realm enough yet, and he doesn't want to go back early.

Of course, Hermes would not dare to say the above words in front of the girl, otherwise he would definitely get beaten tonight.

Facing the girl's doubtful eyes, Hermes continued speaking with a doting expression.

"Your research just proves whether I made the right choice..."

After hearing Hermes explain this, Yasi Fei finally understood part of the reason. However, facing Hermes's malicious gaze, she only felt as if she was offended, and a dangerous expression appeared on her face.

Under the girl's death gaze, Hermes had a few drops of cold sweat dripping from his forehead, then smiled indifferently, and quickly turned his head to avoid the girl's sight, looking into the distance.

"Asfi, you know...the world now wants a 'hero'!"

A faint voice sounded from the mouth of the male god. Looking at Hermes, who was pretending to be profound, Asfi, who was standing behind him, also pricked up her ears and listened carefully.

“The world needs a white light that drives out the darkness.”

"You need a force that is strong enough to ignore all dangers."

"A 'real hero' is needed to save this precarious lower realm..."

Recalling the previous meeting on the 18th floor, the scene when the man beat up the Level 5 floor master, the terrifying upgrade speed, and the most critical "strength" test. Thinking of this, Hermes couldn't help but feel excited, his arms gestured to welcome him, and his voice became louder and louder.

"Now, I have confirmed the 'final trump card'!"

Yes, if a person with such power is not a trump card, then who is?

What would it be like if such power were used by the empress?

Can the strong man at Level 11 complete the final commission? Can you defeat the one-eyed black dragon?

Although this matter is an unknown mystery, the answer will eventually be revealed.

Know that their successors have already appeared. And the empress doesn't have such a terrifying upgrade speed.

Looking at the young man in the center of the crowd with a smile in his eyes, Hermes suddenly widened his eyes.

"At this moment, there are adventurers from all walks of life gathered in the square. They are undoubtedly 'hero candidates from the modern era'."

Although these children are just hero candidates from the present day, the real heroes have already emerged.

"In order to answer the long-cherished wish of the world...I will..."

The gods seemed to bring prophecies to these people, speaking in inaccurate, ambiguous, and exclusive tones of eagerness.

It belongs only to his oracle. He also won't tell the uncertain facts directly.

Will that figure standing in the crowd, with his unsullied armor faded, become a "real hero"?

It’s really exciting.

--------

Time quickly came to two days later, and the labyrinth city Orario was still as lively as ever.

Not long after Fels left the guild two days ago, a loud bang that was no lighter than a Level 7 collision suddenly sounded, followed by a soaring golden light beam that flashed from Orario's Daedalus Street and broke through. The clouds quickly rose toward the night sky.

This is God's return, and it also represents the great miracle performed by God when he died in the lower world.

This exaggerated power that touched anyone formed a bright pillar of light. Informed all Orario that a god was on the verge of death on this day.

Although ordinary residents and adventurers don't know which god this is. But those fellow gods who are familiar with the fluctuations of divine power have already judged the losers of this "Nether Game" early on.

Because she touched the reverse scale of the silver-haired goddess, Ishtar ended up playing hide-and-seek with the goddess Freya on Daedalus Street for a long time, but she still failed to reach that safe place, and was quickly found and controlled by her relatives. . Finally, it was returned by the goddess Freya herself.

No one knows exactly what kind of conversation the two goddesses had during this period.

But with the return of the goddess Ishtar to the upper world and the dissolution of the Familia, the future of "Feng Yue Street" in Orario's third district is probably already obvious.
