"Something ordinary will do. An ordinary sword and ordinary armor will do. As long as it can withstand a beating and doesn't affect my activities, it's fine. After all... I still have to save a lot of important money to achieve my own goals." Raul smiled naively.

After listening to Raul's request, Welf stroked his chin and thought, "Is that so? Then I can tailor a set for you. It's guaranteed to be lightweight and sturdy, and meet your needs."

Raul's eyes lit up, but then he rubbed his fingers nervously: "Um...the price..."

Welf laughed and patted his shoulder. "Don't worry. Since Xingjian brought it here, I'll give you a friendly price as a token of my gratitude for our last battle together."

Raoul was so moved that he almost cried. He excitedly shook Welf's hand and said, "That's great! I can finally save money!"

No matter what, Raul is a LV4 second-level adventurer, and he has at least several million in cash on him, but he always seems to be short of money. He even tries his best to save money on equipment for the expedition. This makes Xingjian extremely curious. What exactly will Raul use the money for?

So, Xingjian asked, "I think you've been saving money, Raul? Senior, is there anything you want to buy?"

Raul was startled, then he leaned closer to Xingjian mysteriously and said in a low voice, "This is a secret, but... let me ask quietly, are you free tonight? I want to take you somewhere nice, so you'll understand why I did this."

"sure."

Xingjian blinked, seemingly not realizing anything was wrong.

-

As dusk falls, the magic stone lamps of Orario light up one after another.

When Xingjian followed Raul around the third corner, a dazzling neon light suddenly came into view.

Neon lights flickered on both sides of the street, and various signs were painted with enchanting dancers and fine wine. The air was filled with the sweet scent of perfume and alcohol.

Men and women in gorgeous clothes shuttled through the streets, laughter and music intertwined together. In front of taverns and nightclubs, soliciting girls waved feather fans and greeted the passing adventurers in sweet voices.

"Welcome to the adult world~"

Raul opened his arms and took a deep breath in ecstasy. On both sides of the street, dancers in tulle swayed gracefully on the terraces, and their golden bell-like laughter intertwined with the sound of the harp.

Xing Jian stood there in a daze, looking around. The brilliant lights reflected in his pupils, casting a hazy color. When he realized that he was surrounded by beautiful older sisters, he suddenly panicked:

"Wait, wait...you brought me to a place like this?"

"Of course! Xingjian, don't be so nervous~ Even though it's your first time, you'll get used to it. The last Black Goliath battle already exhausted me, and I have another expedition in two months, so I always need to reward myself before the expedition. I've been saving up for this for a long time."

Raul put his arm around Xingjian's shoulders and gave a smile that only men could understand.

But... you said you had been saving this for a long time.

I saved money...

Or something else?

Seeing Xingjian didn't say anything, Raul thought Xingjian had understood the things between men, so he smiled and pointed to the magnificent building not far away and introduced it solemnly:

"Golden Swan's massage service is the best in Orario, Scarlet Rose's cabaret performances... and most importantly, the special services at Moonlight Goddess are excellent. I heard a new exotic dark elf has arrived... But personally, I'd rather go to the new shop. I recently heard a new Far Eastern-style Arcade opened, filled with gentle, Far Eastern women. I really want to enjoy that world-famous lap pillow."

"Is this...isn't this bad?"

Xingjian's pupils suddenly contracted and she subconsciously wanted to step back, but for some reason, her body suddenly moved and her feet had already moved half a step forward following Raul.

Seeing Xingjian's "saying no with her mouth but being honest with her body", Raul began to be intoxicated. He showed his white teeth, gave Xingjian a thumbs up, and said generously:

"Hiroshimi-kun, this is our sea of ​​stars!!! You can choose any one of them. No matter which one, I am their VIP guest!!"

Raul, you kid...

That's so fucking nice!!

"but……"

Raul suddenly shuddered, looked around warily, and said in a very low voice, "Xingjian, you must not tell that green-haired elf!"

Raul made a gesture of wiping his neck.

"If Miss Liu knew I brought you to a place like this... I would definitely be chopped into pieces by her wooden sword..."

When he thought of the beautiful and noble [Swift] and found out that his beloved had been secretly led astray by him, he would probably be so angry that he would draw his sword and kill Loki.

Thinking of this, Raul suddenly felt a little regretful!!!

Xingjian, you kid are so dangerous!

but……

I'm here now!!

How can you not enjoy it?

As long as we don't get discovered...

It is not a crime if you are not caught!!!

...

The colorful magic lanterns swayed gently in the night breeze, illuminating the entire Happy Street like a dream. As soon as Raul stepped onto the street, he was surrounded by a fragrant breeze.

"Hey~ Isn't this Lord Raul from Loki's family?" A cat-woman in a gorgeous long dress came closer, wagging her tail, and gently placed her fingertips on Raul's shoulder. "It's been a while since I last saw you~ Raul-Sama~"

"Lord Raul! Would you like to come to our shop for a drink tonight?"

Another Amazon girl covered her lips and chuckled, her brown eyes shining seductively under the light.

"Haha! Of course, of course!" Raul was surrounded by beautiful women, grinning from ear to ear, as if he couldn't bear to leave. "See you! Look! This is an adventurer's paradise!"

Xingjian glanced at the heavily made-up girls surrounding him, and suddenly his heart felt calm.

At first, she was nervous mainly because of the excitement of wanting to eat outside for the first time, but in fact, when she really got to Happy Street, Xingjian was a little uninterested.

Because when it comes to appearance...it turns out that my good-for-nothing elf is better.

Although Liu usually looks cold and clumsy, her lake blue eyes and shoulder-length green hair are simply incomparable to those girls with heavy makeup.

Even if they're cat people...Anyah is actually cuter.

Thinking of the two cat girls in his own tavern whose fur stood on end and meowed all the time, Xingjian's mouth corners unconsciously rose slightly.

"Xingjian? Why are you daydreaming?" Raul patted his shoulder, "Let's go! There are better shops ahead! I'll take you to Dualang~"

The two had just turned a corner when suddenly a frivolous voice came from the shadows.

"Oh my~ Isn't this [Super Ordinary Man] Raul and Hoshimi? What a coincidence."

Hermes' short golden hair sparkled in the light. He leaned against the wall with a meaningful smile on his face. His fox-like eyes narrowed slightly, as if he had anticipated their arrival.

"H-God Hermes?! Why are you here?"

Raul was so startled that he almost bit his tongue.

Hermes chuckled and stepped out of the shadows, stroking his chin lightly with his fingers: "Me? Of course I'm here to 'observe'~"

Hermes's eyes swept over the two of them, finally stopping at Xingjian's face, and he said meaningfully -

"After all, it seems like something 'interesting' will happen on Fun Street tonight."

"Wait! You said something interesting... Could it be that the Ishtar clan is making some moves?" Raul looked around the neon-lit Happy Street nervously.

The actual person in charge of Happy Street is none other than the Istar Familia, one of the top five families in the city. If there is anything interesting, it is the actions of the Istar Familia?

"Who knows~"

Beneath the traveler's feathered hat, his golden eyes shone with an ambiguous light under the colorful lights. Hermes smiled faintly, "No need to make a fuss, [Superhuman], perhaps Ishtar just wanted to treat me, your lovely self, to a drink?"

Seeing Hermes' meaningful expression, Xingjian's pupils suddenly contracted, and he suddenly remembered the story of the original work.

Ishtar, the main deity of the Ishtar Familia, is the leader of Orario's romantic district, "Night Street." The Amazons in the Familia who are responsible for fighting are called battle whores.

Ishtar and Freya both possess the skill of "seduction", but Freya is more popular with the people in the underworld. Therefore, Ishtar regards Freya, who is also a "goddess of beauty", as an opponent and often makes trouble for her, always thinking about how to get rid of her.

But [Freya. Familia] is the number one family in the city after all, with one LV7, three LV6, and four LV5 peak adventurers, while [Ishtar. Familia] has only one LV5.

The gap in strength made Ishtar hate him immensely, but in order to defeat the strongest [Freya's Family] in the city, Ishtar painstakingly prepared many plans.

First of all, the [Ishtar Familia] has long had dealings with the remnants of the dark faction, the God of Death [Thanatos Familia], and has invested in them (Baka and other descendants of Daedalus need a large amount of building materials and huge funds to complete the artificial maze).

Soon after, the Ishtar Familia began transporting the Piranha Plants for Njord, transporting them to lakes or the sea near Meren. If the Piranha Plants in the water became too strong, Njord would ask the Ishtar Familia to deal with them, and together they would obtain a large amount of funds.

Around this time, Ishtar began sending letters to Kali of Douguo (the country of the Amazons), inviting the Kali clan to join her in dealing with Freya's clan, and she sent her clan members (Amazons) as envoys several times to inquire about this matter with Kali.

At first, Kali and the others suspected that the letter of authorization might be fake. However, after the messengers or the first-level armed forces were sent several times in place of tribute, they gradually believed it. The Kali clan, who were eager to fight against the strong, finally accepted the commission from Ishtar and the others.

----

Chapter 99 Ishtar is a goddess without style

The [Kali Clan] from Dou Country has a total of two LV6 Amazon female warriors, but in order to deal with the strongest LV7 urban boarmen, Ishtar also obtained the "Bull of Heaven" from the god of wine, Dionysus (a kind of filthy fairy, whose individual strength and defense are higher than the filthy fairy on the 59th floor of the dungeon, and can also use magic, with strength comparable to LV.7).

But even so, the lack of combat power is still insufficient.

Because Freya has eight first-level adventurers.

LV.7: "Brave" Ota (The Strongest in the City) LV.7 "Bull of Heaven"

LV.6: "Black and White Knights" (Heren & Hedin) LV.6 Douguo Amazon Sisters

Even though Ishtar has won over the Amazon sisters of the Fighting Kingdom and the Bull of Heaven, their fighting power is still not enough to shake Freya's family. After all, [Freya's Family] also has the fastest cat-man warrior in the city at LV6 [Goddess's Chariot] and the strongest combination in the city at LV5 [Four Warriors of Flame Gold], which can exert a fighting power equivalent to level +1 when combined.

In addition to external aid, the highest combat power of the Ishtar clan is the combat power of the leader Frini Jamil at level 5.

The Istar clan knew that there was a huge gap in combat power between themselves and Freya's clan, but they still dared to plan an attack. This was because there was a fox sorcerer among the Istar clan.

Sanjono Haruhime is a LV1 rookie adventurer. Hoshimi once met Aisha, a cadre of the Ishtar Familia, and this fox girl in the dungeon.

The fox girl has a special magic called [Treasure Hammer].

This is a magic powerful enough to cause war.

In Orario, level is the absolute standard for measuring an adventurer's strength.

The gap between LV.1 and LV.2 is like the gap between mortals and heroes.

Those who are able to challenge higher-level opponents are all legends famous throughout the city.

"Red Chickweed" Alyse (Asteria's family) is a LV.4 who fights against the LV.5 dark faction cadres.

"Sword Princess" Aisi Wallenstein (Loki's family) broke through the limit with [Wind Spirit Sprint] and killed the floor master.

"The Fierce One" Ota (Freya's family), with the power of [Beast Transformation], stands at the peak of LV.7.

However, the feats of these geniuses pale in comparison to the magic of Haruhime Sanjouno.

Because the fox sorcerer's only magic, the [Treasure Hammer], can directly grant the target the ability of level +1.

Frini Jamil, the LV5 adventurer [Man Killer] of the Ishtar clan, can directly become a LV6 heroic adventurer with the enhancement of [Maul of Treasures], and has the ability to compete with the strongest cat warrior LV6 Allen Furomo.

After being enhanced, the LV.6 Amazon sisters can reach the combat power of LV.7, which is enough to rival Ota.

Even if the Sky Bull (LV.7) is amplified, a LV.8 monster will be born!

Therefore, this magic of the fox sorcerer is enough to overturn the balance of Orario!

Even if [Zeus. Families] and [Hera. Families] had such a sorcerer, they might have been able to rewrite their fate of defeat, defeat the black dragon, and save the world.

However, Ishtar wanted to use this power for his own selfish desires - simply to satisfy his own jealousy and ambition. As Freya said, it was completely unclassable.

Of course, the most unclassy thing is that the [Ishtar Familiar] wants to sacrifice Sanjono Haruhime to strengthen the entire clan.

In the Far East, there is a magical stone called the Killing Stone.

[Killing Stone] is a special prop for fox people. It is made of [Tamamo Stone] and [Toba Stone] and is a forbidden magic prop.

The Tamamo Stone was originally a tool that could greatly enhance the fox's magical powers... also known as "witchcraft." However...

This is an illegal gem made by digging up the graves of the dead.

And the other kind of 'Bird's Feather Stone' is also known as Lunatic Light?"

"Moon Sigh Stone" is a special mineral that changes color, emits light, and generates magical power when exposed to moonlight. Blacksmiths also use it as weapon material. It is also called "Bird Feather Stone" because the original color of the mineral is as black as wet black feathers.

This mineral became known to the world because a bard held a mineral that was bathed in moonlight and emitted various colors and radiances in one hand and sang a tragic love poem about the moon, which became widely circulated.

Weapons and props made from this material will change their hardness, power, effects, etc. according to the moonlight.

However, this feature is meaningless in dungeons deep underground, so the Moonstone itself is not circulated in the market of the labyrinth city (Olario). The time when the "Bird's Feather Stone" can exert its greatest effect is on the night of the full moon.

At that time, the "Killing Stone" that is a fusion of the two ores will turn into the Demon Stone.

It will seal the magic power... no, the soul... of the user of the stone... of the fox man... into the stone.

By using the appropriate equipment, the "Killing Stone," which is perfectly imbued with magical energy, can provide the power of the fox people's precious magic "Witchcraft" to a third party, thus completing a magic tool that is no less powerful than the "Magic Sword."

As a substitute... the fox man who was sacrificed will become an empty shell without a soul.

The Ishtar clan purchased a [Killing Stone] from the Far East and shipped it to Orario. Their plan is to seal Haruhime's soul in it on the night of the full moon. At that time, Ishtar will split the [Killing Stone] and the fox girl's soul into pieces, and one of the Killing Stone pieces will release the power of the [Treasure Hammer].
