Liu stood at the door, the evening breeze blowing her green hair

At this moment, she suddenly understood that the "home" Astralia was talking about never referred to a certain place.

----

In the backyard of the tavern where the morning mist had not yet dissipated, the sharp sound of a wooden sword breaking through the air startled the pigeons under the eaves.

Anya's golden spear drew a dazzling arc under the morning sun, but the tip of the spear was firmly blocked by a piece of emerald green wooden sword at the moment it thrust forward.

Liu didn't even move his feet, and the cat-eared girl's pupils suddenly contracted. She saw the elf's pointed ears tremble slightly, which was a signal that a flaw had been detected.

Oops--

"boom!"

The wooden sword flipped at an incredible angle, the gun barrel was shaken and raised high, and then Liu's figure suddenly became blurred. When Anya reacted, the cold wooden sword was already against her throat.

"...Meow, meow?!" Anya took three steps back, her fur flaring. "Isn't this a foul? I only just reached level 5."

The bar waiters who were watching collectively gasped.

The cause of the incident can be traced back to last night——

"What? Liu has been promoted to LV5?" Lunova widened her cat eyes in surprise.

Chloe, the black cat girl, licked her paw calmly. "Isn't that only natural? That useless Pokémon is already at the peak of Level 4. The last time we attacked the tavern, she held off two of us by herself."

Indeed, [Swift Wind] Liu Liang has always been at the pinnacle of LV4 skills.

A formidable adventurer, mastering a multitude of skills, including attack, healing, and simultaneous chanting, he not only single-handedly annihilated most of the remnants of the Dark Faction but also made significant contributions in the joint campaign against Black Goliath alongside Loki's second team. His promotion to Level 5 adventurer was a natural progression.

"Because Liu is already LV5..." Xingjian put down the teacup with a wry smile, the warm yellow light illuminating his slightly apologetic profile. "I'm sorry, I'm only LV2 and can't satisfy Liu."

Liu, who had just completed the upgrade, sat aside, his pointed ears turning slightly red.

"So..." Xingjian looked around at everyone, a sly glint in his eyes, and said, "I need your help to help Liu adapt to his newly promoted LV5 body."

"In that case, let's give it a try, meow!" Anya suddenly slammed the table and stood up, the bell on the tassel of her gun jingling. "Even Mia's mother praised our [Golden War Spear], meow!"

As a second-level adventurer who had reached LV4 several years ago, Anya's strength was also at the upper level among LV4s, making her an ideal sparring partner for Liu.

"Meow, we want to see it too!"

Chloe and Lunova shouted in unison, and even Seele showed an expectant expression.

then--

Less than two minutes later, Anya was lying on the lawn with her arms and legs spread out...

but!

Without even a moment to mourn for the Chariot's clone, the one rushing to the battlefield was—

"Meowhahaha! It's my turn!"

[Black Cat] Chloe Lolo leaped into the arena with a beautiful somersault, her claws flashing with cold light. "Let me show you the true art of cat-style assassination, meow!"

Chloe's figure flashed into the arena like a flash of black lightning, her claws slashing through the air with sharp, cold light. The black cat girl's movements were even more agile than Anya's, and her steps carried the lightness and cunning unique to cat people. Almost in the blink of an eye, she was close to Liu's side.

"I got it, meow!"

The pitch-black claws went straight for Liu's throat, but at the moment of contact, a lavender magic circle suddenly lit up under his feet.

what? !

Chloe's pupils flashed with surprise!

"[Thunder of Muse]."

Liu's voice sounded calmly.

The next second, blinding lightning burst out from the ground, and Chloe's body instantly stiffened. Every hair on her body exploded due to the electric current. Chloe's movements completely stopped, and she couldn't even move her eyeballs. She could only watch as Liu's wooden sword drew a stream of five-colored light in her vision.

"boom!"

The wooden sword's strike landed precisely on the black cat girl's shoulder, but the force was not controlled well, and it still caused the black cat girl to feel pain. Suddenly, her whole body went numb, and she fell on her back, like a flattened cat cake, lying motionless on the lawn.

But there was no moment of mourning for [Black Cat] Chloe Lolo. The one who rushed to the battlefield was—

【Black Boxing】Lunova Fast.

Lunova rushed into the battlefield like a gust of wind. She did not hold a gun like Anya, nor did she rely on claws like Chloe, but used her fists as weapons.

As a rare combat expert among the human race, her punching speed is unparalleled in the tavern.

"Accept!"

Lunova's right fist tore through the air and went straight for Liu's face.

The punch was so fast that it almost left an afterimage, but before it hit—

Empty?!

Liu's figure moved slightly sideways like a phantom, and his fist brushed past her green hair.

Lunova's pupils suddenly shrank, and she immediately changed her moves, following with her left fist, which hit Liu's ribs at a more tricky angle.

however……

"too slow."

Liu's voice was close by my ear.

Lunova didn't even see when Liu moved. She only felt a flash before her eyes, and five brilliant sword lights bloomed in her vision.

Liu's wooden sword was unsheathed with the force of Iai, so fast that before even the sound of breaking wind could be heard, it had already hit Lunova.

"……what?!"

Lunova's fist froze in mid-air, and her whole body seemed to be paused. She slowly lowered her head and looked at the wooden sword against her throat.

"I lost... I'm sorry we couldn't satisfy you."

Lunova lowered her head. When they first met a few weeks ago, even though she was at a disadvantage, she was still able to fight back and forth with Liu. Now facing her former opponent, she couldn't even last three rounds against [Gas], just like when she faced [Staff of the Ganesha] Shakti, the leader of the Ganesha clan.

There were three-digit LV4 adventurers in Orario, but there were less than forty adventurers above LV5 in the entire Orario. Liu had now entered the realm of top adventurers.

"Meow... This isn't just a useless elf anymore, it's a monster, meow!"

Anya was lying on the lawn in a spread-eagle position, with her golden spear tilted pitifully to one side.

"That's right! LV5 is such a cheat, meow!"

Chloe lay on the ground like a cat pancake, her tail twitching from time to time. "A normal level 5 who just leveled up wouldn't be able to withstand the continuous attacks of cats! It's all because of the new magic you learned after leveling up!!"

Liu stood in the morning light, an almost invisible curve on the corner of his mouth. An emerald green magic circle blossomed beneath his feet, and countless particles of light rose up like fireflies.

"[End. Wendymia]."

Group. Healing magic.

The moment the healing light passed over, the red marks on the cat girls' bodies all disappeared. What was even more outrageous was that Anya found that the bumps caused by Mia's mother beating her this morning no longer hurt, and her fur shone like satin in the sunlight.

"Meow! What the hell is this!"

Anya jumped up with a somersault.

"After hitting someone, you're still responsible for healing them? That's so unfair!"

"That's it!"

Chloe angrily tugged at her restored apron, "This is pure cheating! A useless elf can use such powerful magic! The two of us and Lunova can't even cast three spells together, and a useless elf can even perform group healing!"

Liu's pointed ears twitched happily, and he pretended not to hear the name "loser". He turned and walked towards Xingjian, but was suddenly pulled by his apron when passing by Xier.

"Hey, hey~" Xier came closer with a smile, "Since Liu is already so powerful...why don't you want to try to spar with Mia's mother?"

"Crack" - this was the sound of the magic light effect in Liu's hand shattering.

The entire backyard fell silent in an instant; even the sparrows on the treetops kept quiet.

"……I reject."

"Eh~ why~"

"I'll die," the elf girl said expressionlessly. "I'll really die, and I'm sure I won't be able to satisfy Mia's mother."

The backyard of the tavern in the morning light is vividly illustrating what the "pyramid of power" is.

LV2 Hoshimi<<<LV4 cat girls<<<Newly promoted LV5 Ryu<<<<<The unfathomable mother Mia.

At the top of the food chain, a muffled "bang" sound came from the tavern kitchen.

Mia's mother was knocking out a giant, lively fish with a frying pan, as if silently declaring: in the face of absolute power, LV5 is nothing.

Chapter 83 The Good-for-Nothing Elf's Birthday

3 month 20 day.

In March, spring is in the air at Orario.

In the evening, streamers and lanterns were hung in front of the "Hostes of Plenty" tavern, and warm light shone through the windows onto the cobblestone road. The tavern was bustling with people, and almost all members of Loki's family were present to celebrate the birthday of the elf girl Lefiya.

"Happy birthday, Lefiya!" Everyone raised their glasses and shouted, the sound almost blowing the roof of the tavern off.

Lefiya stood in the center of the crowd, her cheeks flushed, her fingers nervously twisting the hem of her skirt. She had specially changed into a new light white dress today, and wore a traditional silver hair accessory of the elves in her hair, which sparkled under the light.

"Thank you, thank you everyone..."

Lefiya's voice was as soft as a mosquito's whisper, and her lake-blue eyes were sparkling with tears of emotion.

Lefiya successfully advanced to LV3 and it was her birthday, so all the members of Loki's family booked the [Hostes of Abundance] tavern and held a gorgeous birthday party for the Yamabuki elf.

"Hey, why is our genius magician so shy?" Tiona laughed and patted Lefiya's back, almost making her stagger a few steps.

Tione handed over a beautifully wrapped box. "Here, Tiona and I picked this out together. Open it and take a look!"

Lefiya carefully unpacked the package, revealing a pair of earrings inlaid with sapphires.

"This... this is too expensive!" Lefiya exclaimed.

"Haha, you're worthy of being our clan's future great wizard!" Diona proudly put her hands on her hips, then saw the juice in Lefiya's hand and shook her head. She pushed the bubbling wine next to her in front of Lefiya and said:

"Lefiya, how can you drink juice during your coming-of-age ceremony?! I already drank wheat wine on my birthday."

"Ms. Diona... I'm only 14 years old..." Lefiya defended herself in a low voice.

"Huh? You're only fourteen?!"

Diona's eyes widened, her gaze unconsciously sliding towards Lefiya's slightly raised chest line, then she looked down at her own flat curves, and instantly felt like she was struck by lightning.

"At fourteen, in our Amazon, you're already going to hunt men on your own."

"Ugh... This isn't fair!" Diona clutched her head, shaking it exaggeratedly. "I'm already fifteen, and still... Damn it! Lefiya's growth rate is too cunning!"

Tiona was in tears.

Lefiya was startled by her sudden reaction and took a step back in confusion: "Miss Diona? Are you okay...?"

"Lefiya, don't pay attention to that idiot Diona. She's only fourteen years old. In fact, in our Amazon race, at this age, we have to go hunting men alone."

Tione shook her wine glass, her tone as casual as if she was discussing today's weather.

"This, this kind of thing... is too shameless!"

As a noble elf, Lefiya's face flushed crimson instantly, her hands waving in panic as she continued to explain, "And, and our elves' coming-of-age ceremony doesn't begin until we're fifty!"

Elves have a much longer lifespan than humans, often three times that of humans.

Therefore, even though the Elf Princess Livilia is already 97 years old, she is only about 30 years old in human age, which is the age of maturity, elegance and charm.

In comparison, 14-year-old Lefiya and 19-year-old Liu are indeed just young girls among the elves.

At this moment, the waiter Xingjian came over with juice and handed it to Lefiya with a smile: "Here, a specially made non-alcoholic fruit drink with honey."

"Ah, thank you Mr. Hoshimi!"

Lefiya took the cup and took a sip. The sweet taste made her eyes sparkle slightly.

Xingjian looked at her shy look and couldn't help but chuckle:

"Lefiya is so cute, like a little rabbit."

"Ugh... please don't tease me like that..."

The Yamabuki-colored elf girl lowered her head, the tips of her ears were so red that they were almost transparent.

On the other side, Ai Si sat quietly in the corner, her golden eyes watching the bustling crowd. Xing Jian walked over and sat down next to her: "Ms. Ai Si, don't you want to go play with everyone?"
