No one refused. No one could refuse.

No one in the world could resist Freya's bewitching beauty.

She had absolute confidence in her own charm!

And the more people who liked Ling Xuan, the more it proved that her eye for people was not wrong, didn't it?

As she watched Ling Xuan's figure, a bold thought surfaced in the Goddess's heart.

—I want him so badly.

Freya's entire body trembled with excitement. A faint ache spread through her lower abdomen, and a dazed breath spilled from the depths of her throat.

Everything pointed to one thing: she wanted to claim him for herself.

Meanwhile.

Ling Xuan, who had been talking with Ais, could not help furrowing his brow slightly.

"Hmm? That gaze..."

He had actually noticed it long ago.

Ever since he entered The Babel Tower, a faint yet persistent gaze had been fixed on him.

Ling Xuan immediately sensed who that gaze belonged to.

Freya, Goddess of Beauty...

The deity who resided within The Babel Tower.

But even after realizing whose gaze it was, Ling Xuan did not react much.

It was just that the gaze had become increasingly bolder. That burning stare seemed as though it wanted to devour him on the spot.

"Hmm? Did he notice?"

Sensing that Ling Xuan seemed to have noticed her gaze, Freya let out a soft laugh.

Though she truly wanted to make her move right now and dye that person in her own colors...

For now, she still wanted to observe him a little longer.

She wanted to see just how far Ling Xuan could grow.

"I wonder how Ota's assignment is going?

I'm so looking forward to seeing how strong you become, how brilliantly you shine... and what color you will turn."

Her seductive lips held her curled index finger as she gently bit it.

Yet she quickly withdrew the devouring emotion from her eyes.

After all, she could tell from his reaction.

He had noticed her gaze upon him.

It seemed his senses were sharper than she had imagined.

Or rather, perhaps these eyes of hers had been far too unconstrained when staring at the boy?

She knew what the problem was, but she would not change.

"Sorry, Hestia, but... I'm taking that child."

The Goddess spoke with a soft chuckle.

The entire room was filled with a captivating atmosphere.

The sky was pitch-black.

Dawn had not yet arrived in the eastern sky. It was that ambiguous hour between night and morning.

Ling Xuan woke earlier today than he ever had before.

He soon arrived atop the city wall surrounding Labyrinth City, Orario.

Looking at the scene before him, Ling Xuan could not help sighing.

"This seems to be the first time I've taken in the atmosphere of the whole city at this hour."

From the massive city wall, he could take in the entire cityscape within at a glance. The vast, boundless view left Ling Xuan unable to look away.

There were the Pantheon and the circular Arena, as well as the headquarters of what should have been famous Familia. These immense buildings, nearly as tall as the city wall itself, were truly spectacular. Even from afar, their architectural beauty was apparent, inspiring endless admiration.

Especially The Babel Tower standing in the center of the city. It towered far above the city wall, its presence and grandeur all the more imposing.

The small houses filling every district had their own charm as well, making the view endlessly fascinating.

At this hour, the entire city was still deep in slumber.

And the reason Ling Xuan had come here was naturally because of his promise with Ais.

Their sparring session...

Yet at this moment, Ling Xuan could not help feeling something else.

"Still, it somehow feels like a secret midnight rendezvous..."

If someone who did not know the circumstances saw the two of them sneaking around like this,

they would probably think they were meeting in secret.

Just as Ling Xuan was thinking that, a golden-haired figure quickly entered his sight.

It was Ais.

Ais looked at Ling Xuan with some curiosity as well.

"Ling Xuan, when did you get here?"

"Not long ago."

Ais nodded.

"Then let's begin. Ling Xuan, you're ready too, right?"

Her clear, bell-like voice echoed out, and Ling Xuan nodded as well.

At the same time, his expression turned serious.

The opponent he was about to face was the Sword Princess, the strongest in the entire city!

Ling Xuan had already formed a rough guess of just how strong she was.

Ais was the kind of person who emptied her mind once she entered battle, caring about nothing other than growing stronger.

An Ais with such absolute resolve...

Ling Xuan should be able to understand the limits of what he himself could do!

With that thought, excitement rose in his heart.

This was the strongest opponent he could encounter right now!

This Is My Magic: Wind Spirit Dash

At this moment, Ling Xuan and Ais exchanged a glance.

Seeing the common adventurer's sword in Ling Xuan's hand, Ais could not help feeling curious.

"Ling Xuan, aren't you using that strange weapon of yours?"

Ais was naturally referring to Heavenly Fire Judgement.

Ling Xuan shook his head.

Heavenly Fire Judgement was not suited for this kind of training. Besides, using only Heavenly Fire Judgement would not reveal anything else.

What Ling Xuan wanted to see was the limit this body could reach!

So he took out the backup weapon he had prepared long ago.

With a clang, he drew the sword in his hand!

On the other side, when Ais saw Ling Xuan draw his sword at her, her cool and tranquil eyes brightened.

This was exactly the kind of training she had imagined...

Only this way could she understand why Ling Xuan was so strong.

Thus, Ais drew her sword as well. With her movement, the atmosphere instantly grew incomparably heavy.

Even the air seemed to solidify under the pressure of their standoff.

Ling Xuan carefully observed Ais before him.

As expected of Ais—there was not a single opening visible on the surface.

In that case, he would have to take the initiative.

Ling Xuan knew very well that although he could indeed challenge opponents above his level,

the gap between Level 1 and Level 5 was simply too great!

This was no longer a gap that Ability Stats or equipment could make up for!

So he had to seize the initiative. If he allowed her to attack first, there would be no need to continue this sparring session at all.

With that thought, Ling Xuan's gaze gradually became calm.

He charged at Ais first!

Seeing this, Ais nodded.

As expected of someone who had reached the tenth floor in such a short time after becoming an adventurer.

To organize a battle plan in that brief instant was something even veteran adventurers might not be able to do.

As Ais thought this, the distance between them rapidly shrank.

They were nearly face-to-face!

A cold gleam flashed. An incomparably sharp sword aura streaked through the air, thrusting at Ais's face in an instant.

Ling Xuan had not held back at all with this strike.

He knew that if Ais, with four levels over him, could not even block this, then the adventurers of this Dungeon world were probably finished.

Reality was just as Ling Xuan expected. Ais was, after all, the Sword Princess, Orario's strongest female swordswoman. She could not possibly be defeated so easily, and she raised her sword to meet his attack.

Clang—!

The crisp ring of clashing blades echoed through the air, scarlet sparks flashing incessantly between them.

Seeing this, Ling Xuan could not help nodding in admiration.

"As expected of the strongest female swordswoman... She blocked it on instinct alone."

But despite saying that, Ling Xuan's movements did not stop.

He continued swinging the sword in his hand.

He knew that if he did not keep attacking, then all that awaited him would be defense.

In the blink of an eye, neither of them knew how many exchanges they had made.

The flashing sword light became the only light here.

And in the midst of battle, Ling Xuan became increasingly aware of just how enormous the gap between Level 1 and Level 5 truly was!

Their physical abilities were simply worlds apart. Even if his combat experience, and even his technique, surpassed hers,

his physical capabilities still could not compare to hers.

After all, she possessed the physical ability of one of the very strongest people in the DanMachi world.

How long had Ling Xuan even been in this world? His current Ability Stats were simply not enough.

Thus, with every clash, Ling Xuan felt each of Ais's strikes land with the weight of a greatsword.
