In this chaotic world, it all started when they found an elf girl

　It was no coincidence that this happened on the very day she told Roy the information.

　Could Roy get the "fierce" Otto to help him?

　Roy, of course, knew what Miss Ryu was asking, and laughed, "I told Goddess Freya that these two familiars wanted to harm the lovely and beautiful Miss Ryu, and in a fit of anger, she sent 'Fierce Warrior' Ota..."

　"Don't listen to your nonsense!"

　Liu glared at Luo Yi reproachfully. He was teasing her about this again. Was he never going to stop?

　Now she also knows that the enhanced mermaids and the floor master Amphispina they encountered during that expedition were a scheme orchestrated by the goddess Freya. At first, Ryu was furious.

　When Ryu later learned that the gray-haired girl he encountered on the street while dealing with the Rudra Familia was actually the goddess Freya, his feelings were like a rollercoaster, full of ups and downs and mixed emotions.

Chapter 189 Ryu's New Weapon

　How could they get Ota to annihilate the Dark Faction? Liu ultimately failed to get Roy to talk.

　The boy's witty banter was masterful; at every crucial moment, he would steer the conversation in a different direction, and she would unconsciously follow his lead. By the time she realized something was amiss, more than ten minutes had passed, and the elfin girl's face puffed up like a punching bag in frustration.

　She looked adorable and charming. Luckily, Daphne and Cassandra didn't see this, otherwise Ryu's icy beauty image would have crumbled. But Ryu only behaved this way in front of Roy. In Ryu's heart, Daphne and Cassandra were her juniors in the Familia, and she usually had to act like their seniors—reliable, composed, and mature…

　As for Roy, she considered her a fellow member of the clan.

　"Then I'll head out first." Ryu waved her hand.

　Roy grasped Ryu's soft, boneless hand, warm and smooth as jade, and smiled, "No, take me out for a walk, I haven't been in the sun in ages." Feeling the heat from Roy's large palm, Ryu's beautiful cheeks flushed. Although as an elf she had accepted Roy, physical contact between a man and a woman inevitably made her feel shy.

　"You're quite bold. You just schemed against two clans of the Dark Faction, and you still dare to go out for a stroll?"

　"Does hiding at home mean the enemy won't come?" Roy laughed nonchalantly.

　Liu sighed softly. The boy's bright, deep eyes always seemed to see through the fog of appearances and get straight to the heart of the matter. Roy said, "Staying at home would be bad if we damaged the flowers and plants. Going out for a walk, if someone wanted to attack us, they probably wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass by, like last time."

　Ryu sighed, "Okay, I'm convinced."

　The two greeted the goddess Astrea and left the Star Court. Due to the possibility of being ambushed, they did not take Daphne and Cassandra with them.

　As for the three who remained at home, the Loki Familia's encampment was not far away, and there were Ganesha Familia military police at the gate, making them even safer than the Loki Familia. Ten days later, Roy left the Star Garden again, basking in the warm sunlight, feeling pleasantly comfortable, and a trace of contentment appeared on his face. Roy, whose body had not fully recovered, sat in a wheelchair, with Ryu slowly pushing him from behind.

　The two went out onto the street.

　The moment Roy appeared, the entire street fell into a brief, deathly silence. Adventurers, gods, and commoners alike focused their gazes on Roy, their eyes filled with indescribable shock.

　A level 3 player instantly defeating a level 6 mutated floor master is unprecedented in Orario history!

　Wherever Roy went, without exception, he received awe and astonishment. His fame overshadowed that of many LV.5 and LV.6 adventurers. Roy must have extremely rare skills to create such an amazing feat!

　This is already a consensus among everyone.

　No matter how much the gods pressed her, the goddess Astraea refused to reveal a single word.

　"An eye for an eye, a revenge with limitless power..." Ryu was one of the few who knew the truth. She pursed her thin lips and looked at Roy, who was sitting in a wheelchair with a warm smile, greeting people.

　This skill requires Roy to constantly withstand enemy attacks, ultimately culminating in a devastating blow that can wipe out everything. Roy is undoubtedly the one who suffers the most damage. At LV.3, its power reaches that of LV.7. Envious? It's earned with your life!

　Liu clenched her small fists so tightly that her nails almost dug into her flesh. Was she sacrificing herself to save others?

　The two came out mainly to see the reaction of the Dark Faction. They wandered around the various areas again and again, but everything was calm and nothing happened! Given the Dark Faction's style of doing things, if they chose to retaliate, they wouldn't be so hesitant. They would most likely swallow their anger and grit their teeth. Finally, the two arrived at the Gubney Familia's residence.

　Upon entering the workshop, one finds an old man with muscular physique sitting beside a fireplace, enjoying the sacred wine of the Soma clan.

　Hearing the commotion behind him, Gubernius turned around and saw Roy. A hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. "Kid, you're back so quickly! You're in good health!" Roy smiled and said, "Thanks to you, Gubernius. I've come to retrieve the weapon I entrusted to you."

　"Don't worry, kid, I'll give you priority when it comes to your requests." Gubernius grinned. This kind of special treatment was previously reserved for Loki's family, but he just happened to like this kid.

　After saying this, Gubernius solemnly handed a longsword with a scabbard to Roy, saying, "You always bring some strange materials, and I put a lot of thought into forging this weapon."

　call out!

　Roy smiled slightly, gripped the hilt with his large hand, and drew the sharp sword. The silver blade reflected a dazzling light, its sharpness fully revealed, and a faint sword hum emanated from it. It was clearly of exceptional quality.

　Roy handed the weapon to Ryu behind him.

　Liu Xiao's face was filled with confusion, "What is this?"

　Roy replied, "Wasn't your new weapon, the Elven Stream of Light, destroyed in that duel?"

　When the god Gubern visited before, he specifically commissioned him to forge new weapons for Ryu.

　The materials consist of the Executioner's Blade, the Nine Dragons Staff, the Elf Flowing Light Fragment, and the Crimson Order Fragment.

　Name: Elf Radiance Dragon Staff

　Tier: Epic

　Special effect (regeneration): If the blade breaks or is damaged, it can regenerate by absorbing the enemy's blood.

　Special Effect (Staff Sword): A sword blade that also functions as a staff, enhancing magical effects.

　Special Effect (Dragon Breath): Can release three types of dragon flames: the undying azure flame, the red mist flame that negates magic, and the frost flame that causes frostbite.

　Durability: 98%

　By perfectly integrating the special effects of all the equipment, Gubernius's divine skills are on full display, making it a semi-legendary level weapon, which is what adventurers often refer to as the lower-middle level of the first-tier weaponry.

　It is indeed difficult for a weapon to reach the legendary level.

　The difference between epic and legendary difficulty can be likened to the difference between a level 5 and a level 7 adventurer.

　Roy has killed countless monsters in the dungeon, including a level 6 mutated floor master, and absorbed so much blood. Yet, his Ghost King Armor has only reached the epic level. Reaching the legendary level seems like a distant dream.

　Gubernus did not add the "Forbidden" special effect to the Elf Radiance Dragon Staff because it was unnecessary. This equipment absorbs blood and can only be used to repair the blade, not to improve its quality.

　Liu stared blankly at the new weapon in her hand.

　The main body is made of a nine-dragon staff, with nine small dragons entwined around the hilt to form a handguard. The open mouths of the dragons hold a jewel-like dragon pearl. Elven-flowing wooden fragments wrap around the hilt, and the feel of it is very familiar to her, which shows how much care the designer put into it.

　The decapitation sword extracted only the most important core ore, and the Crimson Order fragment of Alicia was retrieved from the dungeon. Both were then incorporated into the blade. Ryu's small hands caressed the weapon, her emotions complex, her sky-blue eyes filled with a layer of mist.

Chapter 190 The stars are in the sky, and you are in my heart...

　Seeing the elven girl standing there in a daze, Roy asked, "How is it? Is the weapon still to your liking?"

　"Thank you, I'm very satisfied!"

　Impeccable in every aspect, including weight, feel, and sharpness, Liu held the Elf Flowing Light Dragon Staff as if it were a precious treasure, her sky-blue eyes filled with complex emotions of gratitude.

　How could she not be satisfied? This wasn't just a weapon; the fragments of Alicia's broken blade, Roy's sentiment—in Ryu's heart, they were priceless treasures. "Consider it payment for finding that location. If you insist on thanking me, that's fine too," Roy said with a wicked smile. Ryu was all too familiar with that wicked grin on Roy's lips; it was his prelude to any mischief.

　Liu's face turned as red as a ripe peach, and she lowered her head, "If it's just touching your hand..."

　Roy was speechless. "Gubernu God, did you hear that? A first-class weapon, crafted with a huge amount of precious materials and a processing fee of 30 million Fali, is sent out, and all you can do is touch it. If this is such a lucrative business, I wish I could be a different gender!"

　Watching the two playfully bickering like young lovers, the stern and solemn Gubernius smiled. "Indeed, even a lifetime of blacksmithing couldn't match that." Liu blushed, her teeth clenched, and her small hand secretly reached out and pinched Roy's soft waist, rotating it 180 degrees. "Hiss!"

　Roy gasped in pain. This girl was really daring. Even your goddess wouldn't dare to do this.

　Ryu stomped her feet in anger, wishing there was a crack she could disappear into. She covered her face with her hands, clutching the Elf Flowing Light Dragon Staff, and fled towards the outside of the Gubernian Familia. Her beautiful figure flashed by like a phantom, yet gave the impression of fleeing in panic.

　Looking at Roy, Gubernius couldn't help but laugh, "Now you can't even touch his hand!"

　"Not always."

　Roy rubbed his aching lower back and gave a meaningful smile.

　Seeing Roy's confident expression, Gubernius waved his hand dismissively and said, "Find somewhere else to flirt. Don't disturb my work!" "Gubernius will be visiting again soon!"

　Roy laughed heartily, pushed the wheelchair away alone, and didn't forget to leave a message before he left.

　As expected, Ryu was waiting for him at the door. The threat from the dark faction had not yet been eliminated, and she could not allow Roy, who was injured, to act alone.

　The elven girl had her head down, hands behind her back, and was leaning against the wall. Her small feet, clad in tall boots, were kicking at the pebbles on the ground. She was muttering some hateful name, her little face contorted with rage.

　Roy broke out in a cold sweat. His small frame couldn't withstand Miss Liu's antics. Although it wouldn't be fatal, if not handled properly, he might suffer some pain. His mind raced, and he quickly came up with an idea.

　"Cough! Cough!"

　Roy coughed twice to attract Ryu's attention.

　As Ryu cast an unfriendly glance at him, Roy said earnestly in a low voice, "Miss Ryu, do you know the difference between you and Xingxing?" Ryu was taken aback, a hint of curiosity showing on her face.

　Roy's serious expression vanished, and he smiled, "The stars are in the sky, and you are in my heart."

　"Pfft!"

　The frost on Liu Xiao's face vanished completely, and she laughed out loud. Then, realizing what had happened, her face tightened again, but the previous coldness was gone. Roy secretly breathed a sigh of relief, finally managing to appease Miss Liu. It hadn't been easy.

　"Glib talker," Liu muttered to herself, recalling when they first met. Roy had even changed his pants in front of her. The boy was always unreliable and often joked with her, which she gradually got used to.

　He usually seems like a nice guy and gets along well with most people; otherwise, there wouldn't have been such a long line of people visiting him when he was injured. But when it comes to serious matters, especially with enemies, his ruthlessness is no joke.

　Ryu pushed the wheelchair and went back with Roy.

　For several days in a row, while recovering from his injuries, Roy would go out for strolls, traveling back and forth between the Star Garden and the Gubnew Familia, living a life of routine between the two points. Every day, Roy would squat next to the god Gubnew, watching him forge equipment to improve his own skills.

　Unlike Hephaestus, another god skilled in forging, Gubernius was a typical engineer who didn't socialize or socialize, preferring to stay in his workshop tinkering with his own things.

　This also made it easier for Roy to secretly learn the techniques.

　He is, after all, someone with G-level "forging" development capabilities; if he really studies, he will make rapid progress.

　He had an almost photographic memory, deeply imprinting the movements of Gubernius in his mind. Based on different materials, the force and angle of the hammer swing, and the control of the heat, a wealth of forging knowledge was stored in his mind.

　On the third day, Gubernius finally asked, "Boy, can you understand it?"

　Gubernius didn't seem to mind having someone watching him work, but Roy didn't seem like someone who wanted to be a blacksmith; if he didn't learn anything, it would be a waste of time.

　Compared to the gods, the lives of children in the mortal realm are short, and wasting their youth is undoubtedly the most shameful thing.

　"I can understand a little bit."

　Roy gestured with his thumb and forefinger.

　Gubernius frowned and gave Roy a deep look. "Alright, then you can continue watching."

　when!when!when!

　Gubrun continued working, completely absorbed in his creation. His terrifying focus even put Roy, a seasoned adventurer, to shame. Roy knew Gubrun didn't quite believe him, and if he weren't still recovering, he would have definitely swung his hammer to demonstrate the skills he'd learned in the past few days. He wouldn't dare say epic-level equipment, but crafting high-quality gear shouldn't be a problem.

　At dusk, Ryu arrived on time to pick up Roy.

　The Gubney Familia was safe; Ryu didn't need to follow Roy around all the time. These blacksmiths were just as capable as adventurers exploring dungeons. The two leisurely returned to the Star Garden.

　These past few days have probably been the most comfortable time for Roy since he arrived in Orario. He's been waited on hand and foot, teasing Ryu, Daphne, and Cassandra on a daily basis, and even has the goddess Astraea sleeping with him at night.

　Just then, Roy and Ryu suddenly noticed that the people and adventurers on the street were all running in the same direction. The two exchanged a glance—something had happened! "Perse!" Roy grabbed a middle-aged man wearing a black eye patch next to him.

　"Don't hold me back... A budding sense of justice?!"

　This person was none other than the honorary mayor of Rivera Town on the eighteenth floor. Suddenly being pulled aside, Perth looked annoyed, turned around, and saw Roy. His expression softened. Back then, during the incident involving the enhanced mermaids, the Astrea Familia had saved him and a large group of adventurers.

　Even he knows how to repay kindness.

　Roy asked, "What's going on?"

　Perth scratched his head and said, "I heard there are twin Amazon sisters who have set up a fighting ring in the Colosseum. Whichever clan can defeat them, they will join that clan. Those damned gods insist that we fight them. It's so annoying."

Chapter 191 Tione and Tiona

　An adventurer from elsewhere! He's at level 3!

　Twin Amazonian sisters!

　Roy's eyes lit up. With these obvious features combined, if he still didn't know who these two were, he might as well bang his head against the wall. "Miss Liu, let's go join in the fun!" Roy said decisively.

　Seeing the excitement on Roy's face, how could Ryu possibly object? She sighed softly, pushed her wheelchair, and headed towards the Ganesha Familia's arena.

　Before long, Ryu and Roy followed the crowd into the arena, where tens of thousands of people had already gathered. The crowd was huge, and many of them were members of the Familia who wanted to recruit the sisters.

　The incident began when the two entered Orario. Upon registering at the city gate, their LV.3 level immediately attracted the attention of countless people, especially the gods. Orario, known as the "center of the world," boasts dungeons for training adventurers' abilities, resulting in a constant stream of high-level adventurers. Outside of Orario, let alone a LV.2 adventurer, even a LV.1 adventurer with a single ability stat reaching D-rank or higher would be considered the most powerful figure within a hundred miles, deserving a place on their own family tree.

　Training in the outside world and leveling up to LV.3 involves unimaginable battles and adventures.

　The sensation it caused was unimaginable.

　The gods extended olive branches, inviting the twin Amazon sisters to join their kin.

　Tired of being pestered by these persistent gods, the two sisters decided to set up a challenge: whichever clan could defeat them would join their clan! Amazons are a naturally fierce race and would never stoop to the level of a weak clan.

　Roy and Ryu glanced around and saw figures flashing, roars, and screams echoing throughout the arena, indicating a fierce battle was underway. It seemed to be members of the same familia; a dozen adventurers were besieging a pair of Amazon sisters, Tione Silute and Tiona Silute.

　The two sisters have Amazonian-style wheat-colored skin, which makes them look healthy and full of energy.
