“Hmm,” Chtholly and the others watched Senju, waiting for him to open the door.

"Ah, you mean the Monster Festival tomorrow? It should be really lively," Senju nodded, thinking about inviting Chito and Yuri out to play tomorrow. "By the way, there's a portal in the basement that can take you back directly."

"Oh, that's so much more convenient," after listening to Thousand Hands' explanation, Chtholly and the others ran to the basement to use the portal.

Watching everyone leave, Nigoran waved to Senju and whispered, "Hey, Senju, can you make me like Yuri, so I can recognize a lot of words?"

Senju was initially a little fluttery at Nigolan's charming voice, but his next words made him burst out laughing, "Haha, so that's what it is."

Thousand Hands looked around and noticed William was still there. "By the way, William, why don't you give it a try?"

"What?" William asked curiously. Senju explained the use of the clan mark, and William thought for a moment before nodding in agreement.

Senju didn't feel anything while looking at William's back, but Nigolan next to him was drooling, and Senju thought she had relapsed into her old ways.

After dealing with William, Nigolan's mark was a little awkward, but Thousand Hands quickly took care of it. Looking at the mark, Nigolan discovered that she could recognize many kinds of writing, so she happily ran back, leaving a pile of magic stones for the two to handle.

Looking at the various sizes of magic stones inside, William used his magic to test whether he could activate them, while Thousand Hands carefully examined the magic stones. After a while, he suddenly felt that he could absorb the energy within them.

He then saw the magic stone in his hand turn into powder, and his attribute table popped up in front of him. A progress bar appeared next to LV1. Thousand Hands had an idea and took out a bunch of magic stones to experiment. After a while, the progress bar moved forward.

"So it's experience points," Senju nodded, looking at the magic stones in the bag. He absorbed them all, and the progress bar advanced by a quarter. It seemed that he would reach LV7 in a few days.

“I feel like there’s something strange about their eyes,” Thousand Hands, who had nothing in his hands, chatted with William. William nodded. “Maybe it’s because of the clothes we’re wearing right now.”

"Uh," Senju looked down at the dress, feeling somewhat speechless, and went back to her bedroom to rest.

Afterwards, Senju contacted Chito and the others, inviting them to come out and have fun. However, the two told Senju that they were filming a movie and didn't have time to come out for the time being. Ishii said that the airplane he was developing was about to be completed and he was working hard to finish it in the next two or three days.

After hearing the three people's reasons, Senju didn't ask any further questions. To be honest, he didn't know what tomorrow's 'Monster Festival' would be like. If it was like the bullfighting festival, that would be troublesome.

After waking up in the morning, Senju ate a little food and then ran out to get his equipment.

However, Senju then saw that Bell was also going out. He was carrying the Holy Sword and equipment. The two chatted for a while, and Senju learned that he was going to the dungeon to practice the combat methods he had just learned.

After saying goodbye to Bell, he followed the route he took the night before to Hephaestus's place. As he slowly approached the Sky Tower, Thousand Hands noticed that there were far fewer people there than usual.

As he approached, he saw Hestia running out carrying a long bundle. When she saw Senju, she greeted him, "Oh, Senju! Perfect timing. I was going to find Bell. You go to Hephaestus's place."

"Ah, Bell just went out," Senju called out from the side, and Hestia replied, "Don't worry, I know where Bell is." After saying that, she disappeared into the crowd.

Thousand Hands shook his head and went to Hephaestus's shop via the magic elevator. After opening the door, Hephaestus took out a bunch of sword sheaths and placed them aside.

The scabbard is light blue overall, with red patterns on it, making it look very gorgeous.

This is

"A sword sheath?" Senju picked one up and looked at it. There were some leather ropes next to it.

“Hmm,” Hephaestus nodded, sitting behind the table. “This was made using your redstone and diamonds. Taking advantage of the excellent properties of redstone, I added multiple magical attributes to it, such as indestructibility, lightness, and insulation. The leather strap on the side is for securing the scabbard.”

"I see," Senju said in surprise. She then took out her holy sword and put it in its scabbard. The scabbard gradually deformed into a suitable shape, and under her guidance, she fixed the holy sword to her back.

“Oh, right, this is the sword I made for you,” Hephaestus said, taking out a sword from the side. It had a diamond scabbard and a diamond sword, both with red patterns. An Ender pearl was also inlaid on the scabbard, and the hilt was a dark dragon head with strange light flashing in its eyes.

"It feels really good. What's the name of this sword?" Senju took the sword and examined it carefully. The entire sword was simply a work of art.

“The Black Dragon Sword,” Hephaestus waved her hand from the side, “Now, let’s talk about the reward for this sword.”

“Um, talking about money is too hurtful to our feelings,” Thousand Hands said cautiously, then saw Hephaestus shake his head. “No, the processing difficulty of this material is beyond my expectations. For the sake of the material, ten million Faris will suffice.”

“Alright, then give me the rest of the materials,” Thousand Hands stared at Hephaestus, then watched her whistle. “What materials? All used up.”

Chapter 348 Gift

“Who are you kidding? At least you can’t handle bedrock,” Thousand Hands complained, while Hephaestus looked displeased. “I admit I can’t handle that material, but that’s because I can’t use my divine power.”

“I see,” Senju shook his head. “Then I’ll take it back, sell it, and then come back to pay off my debt.”

“Wait, I’ll consider this a loss for me, so I don’t have to pay this time,” Hephaestus waved his hand helplessly. “I’ll throw in three magic swords and a bedrock.”

"A demonic sword?" Senju rummaged through the contents for a while and pulled out three daggers of different colors. Senju hesitated for a moment, "What are these for?"

“The gray one is made of soul sand and has three ‘Soul Impact’ spells on it; the dark red one is made of hellrock and has one ‘Flame Lance’ spell; and the red one is made of redstone and has one ‘Explosion’ spell,” Hephaestus explained from the side. “However, these are all experimental samples, and their power cannot be guaranteed.”

"Oh, I'll try it later," Senju put away the scabbard and the demon sword, and left.

After leaving, Senju found a place, opened a portal, and found that it was all white inside. Many children were having a snowball fight, and snowmen were constantly making snow on the ground. Chtholly and the others were making snowmen, and there were several bloody-looking finished products next to them.

"This is in preparation for the First Snow Festival," Asya kindly explained when she saw Senju staring blankly at the snowmen.

"The First Snow Festival, huh? I've prepared some gifts for you all," Senju said, taking out a scabbard and handing it to everyone. Everyone was delighted to see the magnificent scabbard, especially Chtholly, whose color perfectly matched hers. She then went to show it off to William.

However, when it came to Nigolan, Senju paused for a moment, then took out a newly forged sword and a magic sword. "Nigolan, you can use this sword. There are also three magic swords. You can use them to cast a few spells."

“There’s no need for that,” Nigolan shook her head, as if she could see the pain in Senju’s heart. “You’ve already taken good enough care of Chtholly and the others. If this continues, I’ll feel guilty too.”

"Um, here, take this for self-defense," Senju said, handing her the sword and explaining its effects. A moment later, William arrived, sheathed the holy sword, and skillfully hung it at his waist.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Senju took out a wallet and said, "Everyone, have a good time today and experience the celebration here."

“Hmm, but eight people together seems too much trouble. Let’s split them into four groups,” Nigolan said, looking around at everyone before starting to divide them into groups. “Ctholly and William, Landoruko and Noft, me and Ren, Esya and Senju, got it?”

"Understood!" Noft shouted from the side, and the others nodded as well. Then, Thousand Hands distributed the wallets to everyone as activity funds.

Afterwards, everyone left according to their groups. Watching the other groups leave, Asya patted Senju on the shoulder and said, "Alright, Senju, let's go have some fun too. I've never participated in such a lively festival before."

Seeing Aisa wandering around the stalls, Senju also wanted to buy something. "Aisa, you can pick out some things you like. There's still plenty of money for the event."

"Thank you, Senju," Asya said. The two then bought some things and soon started browsing around with snacks in hand, leaving the rest of their items in their bags.

As Athena grabbed several kinds of snacks, she said, "Just as Lefia said, this place is really lively. It feels much more prosperous than Corinna Dirchi City."

“Yes, that’s right,” Senju said, looking at the bustling crowd around him. Corinna Dirchi was quieter and less crowded.

"I just don't know how Fei'er is doing."

"Asya looked at the sky, and Senju seemed to see the smiling werewolf lady ascending to heaven there, which left him speechless."

After a while, Asya peeked around and asked, "I made plans with Lefia to go to the arena to watch the show. I wonder if it has started yet."

"A gladiatorial arena," Senju sighed for a moment. It was truly a barbaric act, but since there were many adventurers here, gladiatorial combat was a normal occurrence, even though Senju disliked it very much.

“Yes, Lefia said that besides Miss Ais, there are two other friends with her, a pair of sisters, the long-haired older sister Tione and the short-haired younger sister Tiona,” Aisya said excitedly.

“It seems that Aiseya has made some friends here,” Senju said with a smile. Aiseya nodded in agreement. “Yes, there are a lot of powerful people here. We weapons feel like ordinary people here, but it’s not a bad feeling.”

"Well, you're not weapons, you're all living people," Senju retorted. "There are plenty of fairies here too, and everyone's living normal lives."

“That’s true, but there are also many dangerous things here, so I can’t fall behind.” Asya said with a smile, setting a goal: “Then let’s catch up with Chtholly and reach LV7 first.”

"That's quite a big goal, but I'll catch up," Thousand Hands said smugly from the side, leveling up with magic stones is much easier.

"Yeah, I hope we can get there soon," Athena exclaimed, then found herself and Senju standing in front of a magnificent building. "This is the Colosseum, just as Lefia said."

“I don’t like it here,” Senju said, looking at the arena. He didn’t have a good impression of it. Watching others wail didn’t make him happy, and he wasn’t very interested in fighting. What he wanted was a crushing victory, a ranged battle.

“I see. But I arranged to meet Lefia here,” Asya said, looking inside.

"Are all young girls these days so fond of fighting?" Senju couldn't help but complain. "Alright, I'll take you shopping for clothes instead. We'll talk about it when they arrive."

Aesya looked at her clothes and nodded, "Okay, although my clothes are very nice, tonight is the first snow festival, so I'll change into a nice outfit."

The two then went to a clothing store. Aiseya bought a maple leaf-colored dress, which made her look even more like a forest elf. Senju also bought a cloak that sparkled with stars and was said to be able to ward off monsters.

However, when Senju was trying to find clothes suitable for Chito and the others, the shopkeeper, who looked like a magician, recommended their special service, 'magic clothing making,' to her. With just a hint, they could make the clothes she wanted.

After thinking for a moment, Qian Shou took out the photos and gestured to show the heights of several people. With the help of the shop manager, Qian Shou quickly received the finished clothes, even though the price of the painting was five times that of other clothes.

The two then wandered around, and Athena bought many gifts for the children before realizing that she had gone over time. She quickly pulled Thousand Hands and ran towards the Colosseum.

However, the huge cheers from the other side startled Senju and Athena. "It seems the performance inside has started. I wonder how Lefia and the others are doing."

Chapter 349 The First Mission

“It’s alright,” Senju said, looking at Athena’s anxious expression. “That’s not for kids. Even if Athena meets up with them, she won’t be able to get in.”

"I'm not a child anymore, I can become an adult anytime," Asya said indignantly. Who's to blame for this?

"Yes, yes," Senju replied dismissively, "Maybe Lefia and the others haven't arrived yet. We can just wait here for a while."

"I see," Aiseya pondered for a moment, then clapped her hands and transformed into a grown-up version of Aiseya. She grabbed Senju's arm to steady herself. "Maybe everyone has already gone in. Hurry up and take me in."

"Aiseya, you're cheating!" Senju said, feeling Aiseya swaying precariously beside him. He had no choice but to make a simple wheelchair. "Fine, I give up. Sit in there, and I'll push you across."

“Hmm,” Athena smiled faintly, but as she got closer, Senju found her savior. “Hey, Athena, look, isn’t that Miss Ais? And the one with the squinty eyes next to her is Loki.”

“Lefia isn’t here? And that guy who looks like a Fallen One, with squinty eyes and a fake smile,” Aisya commented, looking up at the two. Senju, standing behind her, was sweating profusely. “Are there many people with squinty eyes like that? But that’s Loki, the god of Ais and Lefia.”

"Yo, Loki," Thousand Hands pushed Aisya forward and greeted Loki, who was bothering Ais. She immediately shouted impatiently, "Who is it that's disturbing my date with Ais? Ah, it's that god again?"

Seeing Loki pretending to be stupid, Senju said irritably, "It is I, Star God Senju."

“Ah, right, Thousand Hands,” Loki said as if he remembered, and Ais next to him also bowed to Thousand Hands, “Thank you for your help last night.”

"Hmm, do you two know each other?" Loki looked at Thousand Hands warily. "Are you planning to harm my Ais?"

"No, no, that's not true. You're the one with ill intentions," Senju shook his head speechlessly. "I just helped her repair a sword."

“Hmm,” Ais responded, but her eyes were fixed on Athena. “May I ask who this is?”

“It’s me, Athena. We agreed to play together last night, but Lefia doesn’t seem to be here,” Athena said softly from the side.

"Aiseya, do you know a fairy named Arya?" Ais asked softly. Aiseya shook her head. "No, but what is a fairy?"

“That was in ancient times, when gods sent their avatars to the mortal realm to help people fight monsters,” Loki explained while eating grilled squid. Senju nodded in agreement. “In that case, Asya can be considered a fairy.”

"Hmm?" Loki looked at Athena in surprise for a moment. "Indeed, but most fairies can live for a long time. This fairy's life force has been exhausted, and she probably won't live much longer."

“I’m very familiar with the condition of this body,” Asya said, sitting there without any fear, still wearing a faint smile. “But as for fairy essences…”

Thousand Hands guessed Aesya's situation. They were originally transformed from fragments of Aeluko's soul, and in a sense, they could be considered clones of the Star God, only much weaker than the original.

Listening to the conversation around her, Ais stared blankly at Asya for a while, then asked, "Can you hug me?"

"Why?!" Loki's eyes widened, and he immediately grabbed Ais's arm and shouted, "I'm the one who's on a date with Ais today, Ais can't fall for someone else."

"Okay, sure," Athena gently extended her hand to Ais. Ais kicked Loki away and slowly squatted down in front of Athena. Loki, who was standing next to her, burst into tears, "Waaah, my Ais has been kidnapped."

After being patted on the head for a while, Ais seemed to be in a better mood and answered Athena's question earlier, "This is the punishment for sneaking out last night. Lefia, Tione, and Tiona were at the Colosseum."

“I see,” Athena nodded, a gentle smile on her face. “Why don’t we go to the arena together and meet up with Lefia and the others?”

“Hmm, the gladiatorial combat should be starting soon,” Ais nodded, while Loki beside her was still crying, “Waaah, it’s supposed to be a date between Ais and me, I don’t want anyone else getting involved.”

Senju was speechless. When she looked up, she saw a familiar figure. "Huh? It's the guild members. What are they doing here?"

Loki, on the other hand, tried to take advantage of Ais while pretending to cry, but Ais grabbed his finger and pulled him back. He looked at Aisya next to him and said, "Well, Aisya, you're the best one."
