Offer blocks to the end times

"By the way, Senju, Haruhime will also get a title this time, right?" Takemikazuchi greeted Senju from the side, but Senju was blank. "Well, I don't know either. At least the guild hasn't been informed of Haruhime's upgrade."

“I see,” Takemikazuchi said, lost in thought. Hestia then asked, “Who is Haruhime?”

“That’s one of my fellow countrymen,” Takemikazuchi mumbled from the side, then looked at Hestia in surprise. “By the way, didn’t you watch the ‘War Game’ a few days ago? The Senju Familia and Haruhime are very famous now.”

"That time a few days ago?" Hestia seemed to remember something. "I sensed a lot of divine power fluctuations back then, but I was working at the time, so I didn't check. So it was the game you participated in, Senju? Who was your opponent?"

“It was Apollo,” Senju said from the side. “He kidnapped one of our kin, and then we took his kin.”

"Really?" Hestia was very excited, then very disappointed. "What a pity, I didn't go to watch that battle, otherwise I could have ridiculed him a lot."

As the three talked, they arrived at the thirtieth floor of the skyscraper, which was the venue for the conference. Many gods were already seated inside, including Ganesha, Freya, Loki, Hephaestus, and a host of others, all sitting around a round table.

However, unlike the relaxed gods around him, Loki had a serious expression on his face, without his usual cheerful demeanor, which made the other gods somewhat curious. However, some gods were still teasing Soma, who had come to attend the meeting.

"Hey, Somo, I heard you were banned by the guild. What brings you to a party now?"

"Yeah, I've heard about it too, but it's probably Eina who did it. I heard you've been hiding in a corner with your knees drawn up to your chest these past few days, but it seems like it was just a rumor."

Soma glanced at the bored gods around him and continued calculating the wine recipe in his mind. He decided not to attend this tedious meeting again.

Senju and the others also separated. Hestia went to chat with Hephaestus, while Senju sat there looking at the gods around him. After a while, Loki stood up and banged on the table.

Chapter 523 The Assembly of the Gods

"Now, let's begin the thousandth assembly of the gods. I, Loki, will be the master of ceremonies this time. Please take good care of me!"

"Yay!" cheered the gods below. "Who has something interesting to tell us?"

"Let me start by saying that the guild seems to be installing special equipment. With that, everyone can see the kids' activities at any time."

"I've heard about it too. It seems to be something that Qian Shou came up with. His internet cafes and movie theaters are really fun."

"We already knew all that. Let's talk about Ishtar. Why did the frogmen return Ishtar?"

"Who cares about them? The frogmen aren't smart anyway. Ishtar is just unlucky; it's her fault for taking in a kid who's not quite right in the head."

"By the way, I suggest building an amusement park and seeing who's even more unlucky than Ishtar."

"Let's forget about that and get down to business. I heard that the head of the guild branch in Meilian has suddenly changed, and Nyod seems to have been fined for some reason."

"Yes, I heard about it too, but the guild didn't give a reason, and Njord admitted that he made a mistake. There must be some hidden story behind it."

"Yes, very likely, but I heard that Lachia is going to attack Orario again."

"Why is he here again? Do the people in the kingdom still believe in him? Who can figure out how to deal with him? This is really annoying."

“These are minor troubles,” Loki clapped his hands above. “The real trouble is that the Dark Familia has reappeared. I have received intelligence that Ishtar has been in contact with the Dark Familia, inviting gods from overseas to Orario, and that the descendants of Daedalus have built another exit to the dungeons.”

"What? The Dark Familiars have reappeared? This can't be just a rumor, can it?" The gods below erupted in commotion.

"Besides, Daedalus has been dead for a thousand years, how could he suddenly appear now?"

"That was the expedition team's discovery. When they were on the eighteenth floor, they dug up an underground structure made of super-hard metal in the rock wall. The people inside said that it was an artificial labyrinth built by the Daedalus clan. The Dark Familia had been using it for their activities and planned to use it to transport monsters to Orario."

"Oh, this is big news! Could the scene from a few years ago be repeating itself? Looks like we need to be prepared."

"But this time, everyone needs to be careful. The people the guild captured confessed that the Dark Familia members all have a cursed item, and if you get injured by it, there's no way to heal it."

“A cursed item? Then I’ll have to leave this to you, Dean Kate. It’s time for the ‘Saintess of the Battlefield’ to make her appearance again.”

“Leave it to me, but Thousand Hands God, I need to purchase some unicorn horns to make tools for breaking the curse,” Dean Kate’s words drew everyone’s attention to Thousand Hands, who was flipping through a pile of parchment on the table. It contained information on many people, including William and his group.

"That must be the new Senju God who just arrived in Orario. I heard that his Familia has two Level 7 adventurers, and that Haruhime is also in his hands."

"That's right, but these documents contain the names of her clan members. Are we going to use them for discussion?"

"Very likely. Let's see what title he comes up with. But these top-tier adventurers are all only teenagers. Could it be that he..."

"Very likely. We'll investigate after the conference, but don't anger him now. Once we find something on him, hmph!"

"Huh?" Senju looked up after being nudged and saw everyone staring at her. "What happened?"

Dean Kate repeated what she said, and Senju nodded, "Of course, the same prices."

After the gods discussed the matter for a while, Loki, the master of ceremonies, stood up and banged on the table, "Alright, everyone, quiet down!"

The entire meeting room immediately fell silent. Loki summarized the important matters discussed at the meeting, "So, I've summarized them. The important matters are: the invasion of the kingdom, the reappearance of the Dark Familias, the solution to the cursed items, and the discovery of the artificial labyrinth. I will report these to Uranus. However, that old fox should have already heard the news. We'll have to gather the fighting power of each Familia. Does everyone agree?"

“Agreed,” the gods nodded. After a brief discussion, Thousand Hands took out the cursed spear wrapped in sealing cloth and handed it to Dean Kate as a sample for breaking the curse.

After discussing for a while, and having covered most of the topics, Loki finally relaxed a bit. She patted the table and said, "Then let's move on to the next program, the naming ceremony."

As she spoke, most of the gods chuckled evilly, but a few gods suddenly fell silent. Only then did Thousand Hands realize why there were so many people's materials on the table. Fortunately, he had already asked about their titles.

"Then, the first batch consists of eight adventurers from the Thousand Hands Clan. Please begin."

However, after Loki finished speaking, the room fell silent. No one knew what to say. Senju, seeing the shifty eyes of the crowd, said casually, "It's alright. I've already given them titles. Just listen to them."

"Hehehe," there was a burst of dry laughter around, and no one jumped out to speak. Thousand Hands was talking about the title.

William Kmesh, title: Administrator;

Chtholly Nota Senioris, title: Water Blue Fairy;

Aethasa Maga Valkalis, title: Not a Cycle of Reincarnation;

Nephren Luco Insania, title: Lotus;

Landoruko Iseri Hestoria, title: Explorer of the World;

Noft K. Disperatio, title: Red Strongest;

Nigolan, title: Guardian;

Ishii, title: Pilot.

"..." The surrounding gods remained silent for a while after listening, then flipped through the files of several people. "Alright, let's discuss other people. First, no, next is the adventurer from Set's side, a person named Seti."

"Please, everyone, have mercy!" one god pleaded, and the surrounding gods revealed wicked smiles, finally able to vent their pent-up frustration. "No!"

"No!!!" With Seth's scream, and listening to the titles spoken by the gods around him, Senju finally understood the naming rules here. It turned out that the more chuunibyou (delusional) the better. No wonder Hestia wanted a normal one.

After discussing for a while, the gods bestowed upon Seti the title of 'Holy Dragon Knight of Dawn.' Senju thought it was quite good, but Seti himself was so ashamed that he lay face down on the table, muttering, "How embarrassing!!!"

Then came the naming of several other members of the clan. In short, the titles were mostly catchy and chuunibyou-ish, but considering the adventurers outside, they should really like the titles here.

One of the people that Senju was slightly concerned about was Yamato no Mikoto of the Takemikazuchi Familia. She was eventually called "Zekei". Senju didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but Takemikazuchi was lying there and crying bitterly.

After discussing five or six cards, we got to Ais. Here, you can change your title every time you level up, or you can choose not to.

"How about we switch to the Sword Saint?"

"I think the title is still the best, 'The Wives of the Gods'!"

"Do you want to die?"

"We were wrong, Fiora's title remains unchanged!"

"Honestly, don't you even consider this? Ais is my wife," Loki said, then took out the last piece of paper. "Well then, this is the last one."

Thousand Hands also looked at the last piece of paper, which was Bell's information. The upgrade time was marked as forty-one days, while the surrounding gods also stared at Hestia.

Chapter 524 The Conference Ends

“Before that, you little dwarf, don’t you have an explanation?” Loki stood up quietly, opened his eyes, and slammed his hand on the table. “How did our ‘blessing’ elevate to a higher level in just one month?”

"It took my Ais a year to level up, and this kid only took a month? You must be talking nonsense! Shorty, explain yourself!"

"Ugh," Hestia cried out in distress, then looked at Senju pleadingly, her eyes conveying a clear message, "Hey, Senju, hurry up and do something!"

“Well, actually, Bell Crane trained with William, so it’s normal for him to level up faster,” Thousand Hands said from the side. However, Loki was a little puzzled. “Didn’t your familia just appear here? How could you possibly be teaching him? You little dwarf, did you use divine power?”

"How could I possibly do that?!" Hestia retorted loudly, then looked at Senju, "By the way, Bell used to study under Mr. William, so it's normal for him to level up faster now."

"Really?" Loki looked at Senju beside him, who nodded. "Of course, under William's tutelage, Bell's strength has increased rapidly, as Miss Swordswoman knows."

“I feel like something’s not right,” Loki sat down and looked at Thousand Hands. “Fine, I’ll let it go for your sake.”

The gods nearby started discussing it, saying that it was indeed LV7 training, which allowed people to level up so quickly. They were going to test it out.

However, everyone is privately complaining that the Senju clan must have been modified by divine power, but we just don't say it now.

"Phew," Hestia breathed a sigh of relief and nodded to Senju in thanks. But then Freya stood up. "I have important business to attend to, so I'll head back now."

"Sigh, Freya, are you going back?"

"That's right, after all, there are important matters to attend to, and we also need to go back and pass on what's happening here to the children."

"Since we've come all this way, let's decide on the title of the Loli God's Familiar before we leave. This is the last one."

“I’m sorry, but I don’t have time,” Freya said, picking up Bell’s portrait to look at it. “However, let me think, if I’m going to give him a name, I’ll give him a cute nickname!”

“Okay,” the male gods on stage readily agreed, while the goddesses looked at them with disdain. Freya smiled and then left the venue.

"Let's think of a good name then, but I've never paid any attention to this person before."

"There wasn't even a rumor; it would be strange if anyone noticed."

"If that's the case, he probably used to be studying in seclusion with that Mr. William, which is why no word of it got out."

"Very likely, but there's still a bit little information. Appearance: white hair, red eyes, rabbit? How about calling him Rabbit Lucky?"

"No, that won't do. A blacksmith named Weil something has already used that as the name for his armor."

"He actually surpassed the gods! Just who is this guy named Weil?"

"Huh?! Ganesha, do you have a problem with this?" Hephaestus glanced at Ganesha, who immediately feigned ignorance. "I am Ganesha!"

"Yes, yes, Ganesha, Ganesha."

However, after discussing it for a while, all the names that came up were rejected. Thousand Hands' idea of ​​"the fastest person in the whole village" was rejected by the gods, and another name they came up with, "Thunder Dragon Sword Wielder," was rejected by Hestia with all her might.

Finally, the gods made a decision: Bell's nickname would be 'Little Rookie,' and the meeting was finally over.

After leaving the venue, Senju first sold the unicorn horn to Dean Cate, but it would take a few days to get the money back. He figured that the clans interested in these items would pay for it soon.

Then Thousand Hands and Loki left together. Finn, wearing a cloak, waited for the two outside. After the three met, they hurriedly left.

Upon arriving at the Twilight Mansion, the two breathed a sigh of relief. Loki sat down and nodded to Senju, "I didn't expect so many things to happen, but it's good that we've figured out the enemy. Thank you, Senju."

"Well, it can only be described as a coincidence," Senju shook his head slightly. If he hadn't been digging through the vegetation, he wouldn't have discovered the hidden passage in the wall at all. "How much did Dix reveal?"

“Yes, they’ve confessed everything,” Finn said from the side. “Although they used some underhanded methods, we also learned what we wanted. In the incident on the 27th floor, the Dark Familia’s executives did indeed fake their deaths, and they have now prepared a large number of combat forces. Every soldier has a cursed weapon in their hands, making them extremely dangerous.”

“I see. The curse is easy to resolve,” Thousand Hands nodded, then looked at Finn and Loki. “However, finding them will be difficult. They must know about what happened at this tournament.”

“Of course,” Loki nodded, “so…”
