"Dina and Vina are both dead... They were Level 5!"

"The Astrea Familia are heroes now, we really must..."

"I think... it's fine as it is now, just causing some destruction and looting. Subverting the plan... is too risky."

The deaths of Dina and Vina shattered their confidence.

Panic is spreading silently.

Just then, Apate, the goddess of deception who had been silent all along, let out a soft laugh.

The laughter drew everyone's attention;

“Thanatos,” she said, crossing her legs gracefully, her tone languid, “my ‘fairy soldiers’ have made great progress. I can offer direct assistance with your subversive plans.”

Sanatos frowned slightly.

He looked down on Apate's unstable creations from the bottom of his heart.

It was a pity that two Level 5s died, but he remained confident in his plan.

Before he could refuse, Apate continued.

"The Astrea Familia's momentum is getting a bit too strong. They are now the heroes of the city, the banner of justice. This can't go on."

Her gaze was captivating, possessing a bewitching allure;

"Two days from now is Lynn and Kaguya's wedding. A perfect opportunity, isn't it?"

"I will send my celestial soldiers, disguised as 'heretics,' to give them a grand gift at their wedding."

"I will completely shatter their arrogance."

This plan sparked a great deal of discussion among those present.

"The wedding... there must be a lot of important people there, right?"

“The Loki Familia and Freya Familia will definitely go too, so we won’t get any advantage.”

"That's right, the risk is too great!"

Apate's smile remained unchanged as she turned her gaze to the deepest shadows of the secret chamber.

There, a figure stood, so quiet it seemed to blend into the darkness.

"Erebus".

Apate's voice became serious;

"Shouldn't your Chardo and Alphia get out and stretch their muscles a bit?"

"I hope that on their wedding day, they will capture the full attention of both the Loki Familia and the Freya Familia."

She paused, her tone filled with absolute confidence.

"As for the rest... my celestial soldiers will take care of themselves. They don't need anyone's help."

The shadow moved.

A figure slowly walked out.

He glanced around at everyone present, his gaze calm.

Finally, his gaze fell on Apate.

"it is good."

...

the next day,

Lynn's eyelids twitched, and she slowly opened them.

Am I lying in my own bed? Am I at the base?

They must have carried me back.

When he regained consciousness, he didn't feel the excruciating pain he had expected.

Only her shoulder was carefully wrapped in a clean white bandage.

In addition, a faint herbal scent permeated the air.

Apart from feeling a little weak, I don’t seem to be in any serious physical condition.

Upon waking up, Lynn immediately began checking her proficiency with Black Flash.

Because he used Black Flash to kill many insects and also eliminated the Dina and Vina sisters,

Their proficiency is definitely not low.

[Black Flash] Proficiency: 85%.

Just as Lynn had predicted.

Unfortunately, those swarms of bugs are a rare find; otherwise, Lynn would have skipped meals and sleep to hunt them down.

You can skip meals, but you can't skip going to the toilet.

A surge of physical urge washed over him, and Lynn threw back the covers, preparing to get out of bed.

He had just put his feet on the ground.

"Squeak—"

The door to the "53 Reading Club" room was pushed open.

Amed walked in.

Lynn blinked. Isn't that so-and-so?

Was it for my treatment?

Lynn instinctively reached out and abruptly covered his groin.

Amid's gaze swept over indifferently, landing on Lynn's bare legs, who was only wearing a loose hospital gown, and glancing at the hand he was covering.

"When there is no need to hide it."

Her voice was cold and detached. "I already saw it during last night's treatment."

"what?"

Lynn's mind went blank.

Have you... already seen it?

Seeing that he was stunned, Amid seemed to think that he hadn't heard her clearly, so she calmly continued to add;

"Miss Kaguya helped you take off your clothes."

"Miss Ryu is wiping your body."

"By the way, Captain Alexandra and I wrapped the bandages together."

She scratched her chin, as if trying to remember; "Who else was there?"

97. You'll have to put in a lot of effort (please subscribe)

Amid is still reminiscing.

Lynn weakly raised his hand and made a stop gesture.

"Stop talking..."

He fell backward, utterly dejected, and lay heavily back on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling.

It’s over.

Without even realizing it, I was completely exposed.

Amid frowned almost imperceptibly as she looked at him, seemingly mistaking his reaction for resistance to treatment.

"It's best not to think about refusing."

“I have already accepted the fifty million fali.”

Lynn jumped out of bed. "Fifty million?"

“Hmm.” Amid nodded and explained matter-of-factly, “Your treatment will cost thirty million. Miss Niz’s will cost ten million. The follow-up treatment for the others’ injuries will cost ten million. The prices are fair.”

Lynn raised his arm and opened his mouth; "But I... I'm just exhausted!"

Amid's sharp eyes pierced as she spoke, "Exhausted?"

"If it weren't for my healing magic, continuously neutralizing the curse and violent energy within you, and soothing your muscles that were on the verge of tearing apart."

She walked to the bedside, her voice still calm: "Right now, you're probably crying and screaming in pain in bed."

Lynn's lips twitched.

Just as he opened his mouth to speak,

The door to the room was pushed open again with a loud bang.

"Lynn! You bastard, you're finally awake!"

Alexie's loud voice was the first to rush in. Her eyes were red, but she had a big smile on her face.

Kaguya followed closely behind, walking quickly to the bedside without saying a word.

Those eyes, which always carried a hint of coldness, were now full of concern, their gaze shifting back and forth between his face and the bandages on his shoulders.

Ryu also walked over, her golden hair appearing exceptionally soft in the morning light.

How are you feeling physically?

"Shut up! Can't you see Lynn just woke up?!"

Lyra squeezed in, jumped to the edge of the bed, and peered at Lynn with a curious look.

Aste, Noin, Serti, and Leyana also gathered around. Although they didn't speak, their concerned eyes said it all.

Lynn's gaze swept past Alexandra and Kaguya, who were blocking the way at the front, and over everyone in the room.

On everyone's body, the gruesome wounds that Lynn remembered have now become just faint scars, or have simply disappeared.

Even their standing posture has become upright again, full of strength.
