Anime Crossover: I, the Shadow King, slaughter my way through DanMachi!

Her face flushed bright red instantly, then quickly turned black, with veins bulging on her forehead.

"You, you, you all—"

She was so angry that she couldn't speak coherently, her finger trembling as she pointed at Ying Ping and Hestia.

Ais, standing behind Yingping, had a calm expression, but she was actually very uneasy.

Loki suddenly burst into hysterical laughter, filled with mockery and anger.

"Hahaha! That's hilarious!"

"This is absolutely the funniest joke I've heard in hundreds of years!"

Loki slapped his thigh, laughing so hard tears streamed down his face, then slammed his glass down and roared, "Have you guys missed the point? Who do you think you are?"

"Do you even have the right to play war games with me, Loki?"

She suddenly stopped smiling, and her eyes turned extremely cold.

"A war game, will you fight or not?"

Ying Ping remained completely fearless, calmly meeting Loki's angry gaze.

"Heh, what if you lose the war game if we fight?"

Loki sat back down, trying to regain his home-field advantage.

"If we lose..."

Hestia swallowed hard and looked up at Yingping.

After receiving his approving look, she took a deep breath, puffed out her chest, and loudly declared, "Then the entire Hestia Familia, including myself, is at your disposal!"

The whole place was in an uproar again.

This bet is too big.

If the Hestia Familia loses, not only will the entire family fall into Loki's hands, but Hestia herself will also be at Loki's mercy.

Loki narrowed his eyes, his vigilance and intuition as the god of mischief beginning to kick in.

Her gaze swept across Yingping and Hestia's faces, trying to find anything unusual.

Because both of them were too confident, almost abnormally so.

Looking again at the girls of the Hestia Familia, and Artemis, everyone seemed to be full of confidence.

There is a problem.

Loki had made up his mind.

"baffling!"

Loki suddenly flung his hand away, making a disgusted expression: "Even so, why should I accept your war games?"

"You think you can just start a fight like that? That's ridiculous!"

Sensing something was amiss, she turned and pretended to leave, waving her hand and saying, "Let's go, Aistan, ignore these lunatics."

Ying Ping calmly adjusted his holding position over Hestia: "So Lord Loki doesn't dare to accept the challenge?"

"fart!"

Loki flew into a rage, "I'm saying that people like you little kin have no right to play games with me!"

Loki took a couple of steps and, realizing Ais hadn't followed, turned back impatiently: "Ais? Why aren't you coming?"

Ais lowered her head, her long golden hair falling down to obscure her expression.

When she raised her head, a resolute light shone in her amber eyes: "Lord Loki... if you refuse this war game..."

She took a deep breath: "I'm going to convert to the Hestia Familia."

"Varied-?!"

Loki froze, his expression instantly solidifying.

The entire banquet hall erupted in chaos once again, leaving the gods and adventurers utterly astonished.

Here, everyone knows that Fiora has always been the apple of Loki's eye.

For Loki himself, Ais was someone he loved like a daughter.

But at this moment, Ais... betrayed Loki!?

This news was so explosive that everyone, from the gods to the adventurers, wore expressions of utter astonishment.

"Ai... Aisitan, you..."

Loki's voice trembled violently, "Do you know what you're saying?"

Ais nodded calmly: "I understand, Lord Loki."

"How dare you...how dare you..."

Loki's breathing became rapid, his chest heaved violently, and his long red hair moved without wind, like a burning flame.

“We, the Loki Familia, have raised you for so many years! I even consider you my own daughter!”

"And now you're going to betray us for some kid you just met?!"

Ais's eyes flickered for a moment, but quickly regained their resolve.

“This is not betrayal, Lord Loki.”

"I just...want to become stronger."

Her gaze turned to Yingping, “As long as I convert to the Hestia clan, Mr. Yingping can help me do it. He has guaranteed it.”

"You actually believe him because of this!?"

Loki let out a roar that was almost like that of a wild beast.

Her divine power leaked out uncontrollably, and the surrounding tables and chairs began to shake violently.

Loki was so enraged that he unleashed his divine power!

"good very good!"

She glared at Ying Ping and Hestia, gritting her teeth, and said, "Hestia, you've successfully enraged me! I accept your war games!!!"

She pointed sharply at Yingping, her nails seemingly piercing his eyes: "If your Hestia Familia loses, all the girls in your family will have to convert to my family!"

"I want Yingping to be my slave! Forever! I want you to kneel on the ground and lick my shoes every day!"

"And Hestia... As for you, I hereby declare to all of Orario that you are a useless goddess who is good for nothing except for your big breasts!"

Faced with the menacing Loki, Hestia's face turned pale instantly, but Ying Ping gently took her hand.

"Ha, Loki, you've finally revealed your true colors. Did you think you could scare us with those words?"

The more arrogant you are today, the worse your fate will be.

"Originally, I planned to only make you Hestia's servant, only responsible for serving tea and water. Now it seems you also want to be a slave."

Ying Ping scoffed, dropping the pretense and launching into a taunting attack on Loki.

"Alright, alright, let's see who ends up as a slave!"

Loki's eyes burned with a frenzied rage.

She glared at Ais one last time, then turned and strode away, her long red hair dancing wildly behind her.

But Ais remained standing still.

"Ais!"

Loki stopped at the doorway and, without turning around, shouted sternly, "Come here! Don't forget you're still my child!"

Ais hesitated for a moment, but finally followed.

But as she passed by Yingping, she gave a barely perceptible nod.

The banquet hall was completely silent; everyone was stunned by the sudden conflict.

Only after Loki's figure disappeared outside the door did the discussions and excited voices erupt like a tidal wave.

"This has blown up a lot..."

"Loki is really angry."

"It looks like the Hestia Familia is finished. How did those few people dare to fight the entire Loki Familia?"

"They seem quite confident, but we'll have to wait until the rules of the war game are finalized to see their actual chances of winning..."

Hestia's legs went weak and she almost collapsed to the ground, but Ying Ping caught her in time.

"Ying, Pingjun, Loki is terrifying when she gets angry..."

Her voice trembled slightly, "Did we do something wrong?"

Ying Ping looked down at her, a confident smile playing on his lips: "No, we are not wrong, Hestia. We will win this war game."

He calmly carried Hestia off the stage, and Artemis and the others immediately surrounded him.

Chapter 62 Moving to a New Home, A Challenge from Ota! [Requesting Review Votes]

Ever since the news spread that the Hestia Familia and the Loki Familia were about to engage in a war game, the entire city of Orario has been in an uproar.

In the streets and alleys, in taverns and teahouses, almost everyone is talking about this unprecedented decisive battle.

"Did you know? I heard that Ying Ping could easily defeat even a level 5 ferocious wolf like Bert..."

"But the Loki Familia has three Level 6 warriors stationed there!"

"Just who is this Ying Ping? How could he make even Sword Maiden Ais betray him on the spot? Loki must be furious..."

"Tsk, I think they're just asking for it. After all, the Loki Familia is one of the strongest and oldest Familias in Orario!"

Amidst the heated discussions, some scoffed, while others secretly looked forward to it.

Amidst this heated discussion, the Hestia Familia officially took over the former territory of the Apollo Familia.

This magnificent palace has been renamed the Hearth Palace by Hestia herself and registered with the guild.

The morning sun shone on the wide lawn of the Hearth Hall, and dewdrops glittered among the blades of grass.

Ying Ping was shirtless, his muscles clearly defined in the morning light, and sweat trickled down his back.

His breathing was steady and deep, and his eyes were focused intently on the front.

"Very good, hold that position!"

Jian Yulei stood to the side, arms crossed, his sharp eyes scrutinizing Yingping's every move.

Although this martial arts master usually had a gentle temperament, he was exceptionally serious when teaching Ying Ping martial arts.

"Your body coordination has improved a lot since last time, but your lower body is still not stable enough, and your movements are too stiff."

Kenjiro stepped forward, reached out and pressed down on Winping's shoulder, slightly adjusting his posture.

"Remember, the real skill in martial arts lies not in brute force, but in how to exert the greatest power with the smallest movements."

Yingping nodded, adjusted his breathing according to Jianyu's instructions, concentrated the lightning enchantment in his right hand, and then suddenly swung it forward!

"Chidori Sharp Spear!"

“Sizzle!”

The air was instantly torn apart, producing a sharp bang.

The lightning bolt that was unleashed, like a silver snake, instantly pierced through the bottle placed ten meters away.

A hint of surprise flashed in Takemikazuchi's eyes.

"You've mastered the essence of the afterglow so quickly... Your progress is truly incredible."

He rarely showed a smile, "Ying Pingjun, if you specialize in boxing, your future achievements may surpass your swordsmanship."

Yingping wiped the sweat from his forehead and smiled modestly: "It's all thanks to Lord Jian Yulei's excellent teaching."

"You're too modest. You are indeed a very talented young man."

Kenjiro shook his head slightly. Although he said that, he was clearly satisfied with Winping's attitude.
