I love time travel the most!

After leaving the stall, Kobayashi and Ryuzu strolled around the festival again, and when it was almost time, they prepared to head to the Colosseum.

The most important part of this festival is the training of fighters; if you don't go to see it, you'll miss out on a lot of the fun.

however--

"Miss Ryuu, if I said my legs had a mind of their own, would you laugh at me?" Kobayashi looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings, making lighthearted and witty remarks, but her inner vigilance was already at its highest.

Liu Zi followed behind, saying sarcastically, "Didn't Lord Kobayashi come here on purpose? I thought you suddenly lost interest in fighting."

"How can it be."

Even the most foolish person should understand that someone deliberately led them here.

The objective is unknown, the method is unknown, and the enemy is unknown.

Kobayashi tensed up, and the pattern belonging to Aqua's Familia quietly appeared on her forehead. She zoomed out from a third-person perspective to search for the enemy.

But the next second, a figure in a blue robe emerged from the alley ahead.

Upon seeing her, Kobayashi raised an eyebrow slightly, bowed, and said:

"—Goddess Freya."

Yes, the figure before us is indeed the goddess of beauty.

The goddess Freya had no intention of hiding anything. She took off her wide hoodie to reveal her charming face and chuckled, "Kobayashi, why are you here?"

Don't you know why I came here?

Xiaolin really wanted to complain, but she held back.

Speaking directly would put me at a disadvantage, and remaining silent would also put me at a disadvantage, so I had no choice but to use the previous request as a shield.

"I've been asked to deliver this to some careless, idiotic maid as soon as possible."

With a flick of his wrist, Xiaolin produced a beautiful purple money pouch.

Freya was visibly stunned when she saw it.

In this way, for this reason, we met.

Is this fate?

She couldn't help but laugh again, her captivating charm spreading through the secluded alley.

This instantly put Kobayashi into battle mode. The increased all-attribute abilities of his skills were activated in an instant, and his mental strength began to recover rapidly while resisting the charm.

The goddess was even more satisfied with Kobayashi.

Unlike that skinny boy who needed to be developed little by little and couldn't be given too much stimulation, the boy in front of him was obviously already a veteran, and wouldn't break no matter how much he was played with.

Therefore, their training methods are quite different.

Just then, a loud scream suddenly came from afar, attracting Kobayashi's attention. This became the trigger, and a series of intense and high-pitched screams followed one after another. They seemed to have encountered something incomprehensible; their panicked, fearful, and timid tones were undisguised.

The ability of [Far Vision] is activated instantly.

Soon, he saw a gigantic monster wreaking havoc, destroying stalls on both sides of the street as people fled. At the same time, he also saw several familiar faces from Loki's Familia, who were evacuating the crowd while chasing after the fleeing monster.

It's obvious without even thinking that Freya made this.

The goddess before him remained calm upon seeing this, and instead said to Kobayashi, "It seems there's been a riot on this street. I wonder if you could protect me a little before Ota and the others arrive?"

"...Of course, I am deeply honored to be the guardian of the goddess Freya."

"Little mouth is so sweet."

Freya took Kobayashi's arm and leaned against him. After feeling his body stiffen slightly, the goddess's lips curved into a perfect smile.

It has to be said, the goddess of beauty is quite adept at playing the game.

The woman attacked Kobayashi in front of Ryuko; her methods were incredibly cunning.

Soon, they arrived at a clock tower, high above like gods looking down at the poor people below who were fleeing in panic because of the monsters.

The Loki Familia is indeed very efficient, and the monsters were quickly eliminated by them.

But one monster... no, two monsters were still relentlessly pursuing certain adventurers.

One is Bell, who was already scheduled to undergo the trial and is running rapidly through the streets with Hestia on his back; the other is Lefia, who is reacting due to magic but is hampered in battle and unable to use magic.

Freya suddenly spoke up, saying, "Oh no. That child is about to give up."

She was talking about Rafia.

Because the Amazon sisters went out without weapons, they were unable to unleash their full power. Swordswoman Ais's spare weapon was also damaged by a monster due to insufficient strength. The monster, which was responsive to magic, opened its petal-like mouth and aimed at Lefia, preparing to swallow the injured and immobile elven girl whole.

In this critical moment, Freya asked, "Aren't you going to save her?"

"...No, I made a promise before that I would definitely not get involved in any trouble today."

Kobayashi remained unmoved.

Freya didn't speak, but just kept looking at him, staring straight at him.

Those silver-gray eyes saw right through to the soul.

"Tsk."

But when Kobayashi saw Lefia struggling to prove herself but unable to get up, he clicked his tongue in disbelief and looked at Ryuu.

The attendant beside him was already prepared and used his abilities without his master having to speak.

—Imaginary number switch!

In an instant, the two disappeared from the clock tower and reappeared in front of the injured elven girl.

Freya smiled as she watched Kobayashi's retreating figure.

This is not just a trial for one person, but also a trial for Kobayashi.

Heroes from Another World

You have made up your mind that you will not allow any casualties.

Yes, that's it! This is the radiance of your soul that you cannot conceal.

I know, I know!

This was true in the desert. Even though nothing was done, the souls of the freed slaves were stirred. It is true now; when someone needs to be rescued, help will be offered no matter what.

The goddess of beauty has seen through his true nature.

But that's not enough; compared to that child, it's far from enough.

She then turned her gaze to the thin boy in the distance who was being chased and fleeing from the monster.

Who exactly is her partner (Ord)?

Thank you for your concern, dear readers. I'm feeling alright, just a runny nose and a bit dizzy. I'll try my best to maintain a stable update schedule.

Chapter 229 Each

Why is this happening?

Lefia, who was injured in the abdomen and smashed into a fruit stand by a vine whip and unable to move, was so absent-minded that she still had the mind to recall what had happened not long ago in such a critical moment.

That happened after the three of them went to the Colosseum together.

Unlike themselves, who were only focused on watching the fighting, the perceptive Amazon sisters noticed the anomaly first. The three of them immediately took action and found their god Loki on the main street to inquire about the situation.

Simply put, it's a monster riot.

For some unknown reason, the monsters captured by the Ganesha Familia for today's taming suddenly rioted, as if someone had deliberately released them.

In this situation, Loki waved his hand and ordered his retinue to hunt down monsters and rescue civilians.

My fellow members of the clan are all wreaking havoc, but I'm the only one left...

"Lefia, danger!"

Tiona shouted, waking the elven girl who had lost consciousness due to excessive blood loss, but at this moment she was too badly injured to move.

Looking at the huge flower stem emerging from the ground and the giant Venus flytrap blooming at the top of the stem.

The foul-smelling liquid continued to drip, and the hideous maw was like a bottomless abyss, and fear gripped my heart once more.

Same as on the 50th floor.

It was the same type of monster that instilled fear in him, preventing him from casting spells, which led to the entire expedition team being injured and returning empty-handed.

This is true again.

Most importantly, because Ais's spare longsword broke, her idol, who came to her rescue, was powerless to help.

Is this the end for me?

A wave of sorrow washed over the elven girl.

……

...

No, no!

I want to stand beside her, I want to be her equal...

Watching the swordswoman's figure radiate brilliance on the battlefield, Lefia forced herself to stand up and stared at her fair back, saying, "It's not enough to just admire her, to just be protected, to just stand in the back!"

She rallied through her own willpower and also learned a valuable lesson.

—Longing is the emotion furthest from understanding.

Just as she was about to unleash her magic in one fell swoop to rescue her companions—

Swish!

In an instant, a figure... no, two figures appeared in front of her.

The man's grey robe fluttered in the breeze, and a corner of it shone with a dazzling brilliance that was completely different from its original appearance; the maid beside him followed in the footsteps of the man she served with a calm expression, unmoved even as monsters roamed ahead.

"Xiao Lin!"

Tiona gasped.

With a wave of his hands, the flower stem-like monster that had been baring its fangs and claws in front of him instantly froze.
