Lefia couldn't help but complain.

"My...My Lord God!"

Even Bell was taken aback by his own god's shamelessness and repeatedly apologized, "I'm sorry, Mr. Kobayashi!"

"no problem, no problem."

If treating someone to a meal can stop Hestia from acting unreasonably, Kobayashi would be more than happy to spend the money.

After walking up several flights of stairs, we arrived at the Northwest Backstreet on the edge of the labyrinth city.

This was a fairly wide back street, but there was no one else around, making it seem very deserted.

Conversely, it's too quiet.

Enclosed in darkness, with no light, one could only rely on the starlight and moonlight to maintain visibility.

Not to mention the magic stone lamps, even the buildings themselves didn't emit any light.

It looked quite unnatural.

—Someone is watching us!

Kobayashi, who was sensitive to sight, stopped in her tracks, and the swordswoman Ais beside her also stopped.

Seemingly sensing something amiss, everyone held their breath.

Immediately afterwards, a light blue pattern appeared on Kobayashi's forehead, and the next second he turned his head into some shadow.

Although his eyes were not open, it was clear that he had spotted the other person.

Come out!

Use your eyes to warn the other party.

Following Kobayashi's 'gaze', the group noticed a figure emerging from the darkness.

The face shield and armor were black, and even the weapons were deliberately painted black.

But his figure, seemingly blending into the darkness, and the cat ears on his head, revealed his identity to Kobayashi through his "eyes".

Chapter 250 The Goddess is Angry, and the Consequences are Severe

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

And there are still two of them!

As a renowned goddess of beauty in the heavens who manipulates all male gods at will, she did not regard the mortal who possessed beauty on par with her as a rival.

But as time went by, one child (Bell) could only be seen every morning, while the other child (Kobayashi) simply stopped appearing altogether.

Actually, the goddess misunderstood. It wasn't that Kobayashi didn't appear, but rather that various troubles prevented him from having time to show up.

The story begins with an attack on the 18th safest level. Kobayashi is then commissioned by Uranus, the god of the sky, to embark on an expedition with Loki's Familia. In order to become stronger and not become a burden, he has to bury himself in grinding monsters in the dungeon to improve his proficiency.

With the riots on the 24th floor interspersed throughout, he had absolutely no free time.

But the goddess of beauty doesn't care.

She arrogantly asserted that the culprit behind everything was the princess of the Loki Familia.

—Ais the Swordswoman.

As Kobayashi and Ais danced (fought) together on the city wall, the goddess could no longer sit still.

You must never let others touch the children you have your eye on.

With this thought in mind, Freya said softly, "I mean, don't you think they're getting a little too close? I'm very grateful for their help and guidance, but getting too close will hinder their growth."

The child's jealous tone, tinged with a hint of envy, filled the room.

It's self-evident what the goddess wants to do.

If the mighty one were around, he might have offered some advice, but he was assigned to prepare trials for Bell, while the remaining members of Freya's Familia were all captives of the goddess of beauty, and whatever they asked of them would be fulfilled.

therefore……

"Allen, go and give her a warning."

"Yes, Lady Freya."

Sigrún has taught at the Iceland University of the Arts as a part-time lecturer since and was Dean of the Department of Fine Art from -. In – she held a research position at Reykjavík Art Museum focusing on the role of women in Icelandic art. She studied fine art at the Icelandic College of Arts and Crafts and at Pratt Institute, New York, and holds BA and MA degrees in art history and philosophy from the University of Iceland. Sigrún lives and works in Iceland.

"So, you got it? Get away from me!"

"……Um?"

The abrupt and unsubstantiated warning made Sword Maiden Ais tilt her head.

The naive girl genuinely didn't understand why people were saying that to her, but her expressionless face seemed like a provocation, causing the cat-people to immediately bare their teeth.

He held a black spear that was over two meters long in his right hand.

Facing a ferocious cat that seemed to be biting a mouse to death despite its owner's scolding, the swordswoman Ais slowly drew her rapier from her waist.

Kobayashi then stood in front of Bell and Hestia.

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

On the field, Fiora and the cat-man stared at each other.

The next moment!

With a bang, a violent killing intent surged from the cat-people, who lightly stepped onto the stone slabs and approached them.

With a slight twitch of his fingers, Xiaolin spread the silk threads all over the street in the blink of an eye.

In this terrain, his weapons could be used to their fullest potential. However, what he didn't expect was that his opponent was as agile as a cat, relying on his own strength to dodge all the traps.

"Tsk."

He clicked his tongue softly, unwilling to accept it.

Level 6 is nothing special, being a cat-person is nothing special!

Just as the cat-people who had been closing in were about to launch their attack with their spears in less than a second, the swordswoman Ais intercepted them with incredible speed, preventing them from succeeding.

Even a veteran LV6 couldn't ignore the existence of the Fiora.

boom!

A flash of silver rapier slashed at the spear that was in a defensive stance, sparking bright, vivid flashes of light and repelling the attacker from before the crowd.

The cat-people were knocked flying backward.

It really is flying.

It floated lightly backward and landed on the floor, seemingly unharmed.

Sword Maiden Ais silently took a step forward, raising her golden eyes to focus on the enemies lying in ambush and waiting for them.

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

The attacker regained his footing and his gaze met that of the swordswoman Ais.

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

The two engaged in a high-speed hand-to-hand combat, striking first and counterattacking, attacking and defending, dodging and pursuing. Every time their bodies crossed, their speed increased even more, with neither giving an inch.

For the time being, it seemed like they were evenly matched, but Kobayashi keenly sensed that the Sword Maiden Ais was barely able to suppress her opponent in terms of speed.

Even though it has only been upgraded to LV6, the advantage of its high agility attribute finally becomes apparent with each upgrade.

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

Under the cover of night, the Sword Maiden Ais's hands were swirling with an indistinct green whirlwind, and her already incredibly fast return speed suddenly became even faster.

The cat-people, unable to keep up, froze for a moment, and the swordswoman Ais seized that moment.

Create some distance, then swing your sword down!

tear-

The sharp rapier sliced ​​through the cat-man's black breastplate; had he not leaned back at the crucial moment, his chest would have been split in two.

The swordswoman Ais's long golden hair was gently blown about.

The wind wrapped around her.

The cat-human youth who had been forced to retreat clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Tsk...what a monster."

Driven by the astonishing skill and tactical acumen that surpassed their actual abilities, the cat-people harbored deep resentment towards the blonde, golden-eyed girl.

The veteran powerhouse was defeated by the upstart.

It would be strange if I were in a good mood.

The cat-people leaped gracefully backward and landed on the roof beam, where four little people were.

Sword Maiden Ais narrowed her eyes.

What was the purpose of this attack?

Was the night raid targeted at the cadres of the largest faction in the city?

When Ais thought that a fiercer battle was about to break out when the enemy attacked without warning, the cat-person holding a spear spoke from behind his mask.

"—I'm warning you, Fiora! From now on, you're not allowed to meddle in other people's business."

"……Um?"

A seemingly random remark caused the Sword Maiden Ais's brows to furrow in confusion.

This is already the second time.

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

"I'm telling you, whether it's an expedition or anything else, stay in the maze and don't come out, you doll! You might as well just die while you're at it!"

The cat-people replied rudely.

As if threatening, the five of them simultaneously exuded a dangerous killing intent.

But the target wasn't her, but Kobayashi behind her and Bell and Hestia, who were being protected.
