I, with the Kevin Template, Joined the Chat Group

Yet when he turned back, he found that scorching gaze had already vanished!

Ling Xuan frowned.

"Was that Freya...? With Bell absent, has she set her sights on me?"

Ling Xuan muttered.

Elsewhere.

"That was close... That boy was actually able to sense my presence."

Freya patted her chest with lingering fear.

At this moment, she was filled with intense curiosity and complicated feelings toward that boy.

"You're making me more and more curious. Your strength clearly isn't that great, yet you were able to detect my presence... As expected, an adventurer like you should join my Familia."

As she spoke, the Goddess of Beauty let out a soft laugh.

A trace of determination appeared in her eyes.

Because that white-haired adventurer, she, Freya, was determined to have him!

A Real Man Must Use Heavenly Fire Judgement

Back to Ling Xuan!

Ling Xuan had a bit of a headache at the moment. He had not expected to draw the attention of Freya, the Goddess of Beauty, so soon.

"This is really a bit troublesome..."

That said, he was not particularly bothered by it.

Still, if Hestia found out about this, she would probably be jealous beyond measure.

But it did not matter. He would deal with whatever came his way.

Just as Ling Xuan was thinking this, an unexpected voice rang out.

"Um..."

The voice coming from behind made Ling Xuan turn around at once.

The one calling out to him was a girl, a human like Ling Xuan.

She wore a white women's shirt and a light-leaf-green jumper skirt that reached below her knees, with a longer apron tied around the outside of the skirt.

Her dull, light-gray hair was tied into a bun at the back of her head, with a tail hanging down beneath it.

It was somewhat like a variation of a ponytail. Her eyes, the same color as her hair, looked innocent and adorable.

This was one of the few friends Ling Xuan currently had in this world—Syr Flova!

"Syr!?"

"I knew it. When I saw that back, I thought it was you, but I never expected to see you so early in the morning, Ling Xuan!"

Syr Flova said with a smile.

After becoming an adventurer, Ling Xuan had naturally quit his job at the tavern.

After all, now that he was an adventurer, there was no longer any need to earn money by bartending.

"Come to think of it, isn't this our first time meeting since I became an adventurer?"

"Yes. Ever since Lord Ling Xuan left with Lady Hestia, you've forgotten all of us old tavern friends. You really did forget your old love after finding a new one!"

As she spoke, Syr puffed out her cheeks.

She was clearly a little jealous!

Hearing that, Ling Xuan could only smile awkwardly.

It really did seem that way...

But he had truly been busy lately. Ever since becoming an adventurer, he had not stopped for a single moment.

"Ahem, sorry, Syr. I really have been a little busy lately. Also, what's with this 'Lord Ling Xuan'? Just call me Ling Xuan like before."

"Hehe."

Hearing that, Syr Flova let out a cheerful sound.

Ling Xuan's attitude had clearly made her very happy.

"Judging by how you look, you're planning to go to the Dungeon, right?"

Though it was phrased as a question, Syr Flova was utterly certain of her guess.

Ling Xuan nodded.

After receiving his confirmation, Syr Flova fell into thought for a moment.

"Then wait here for me for a little while."

As soon as she finished speaking.

Syr Flova quickly ran off.

She ran toward the open-air café... passed through it and entered the shop, then returned shortly afterward.

In her slender arms, she held something she had not had when she left—a small basket.

Inside were small pieces of bread and cheese.

"If I'm not mistaken, you definitely haven't had breakfast this early in the morning, right? If you don't mind..."

The shop had not opened yet, so this was breakfast Syr Flova had prepared herself.

Giving the breakfast she had made to a boy made Syr Flova feel a little shy.

Her face turned bright red as well.

"Huh? Isn't that too much? And isn't this your breakfast...?"

At his words, a trace of dissatisfaction appeared on Syr Flova's face.

"I'd feel guilty letting you leave on an empty stomach. Or has becoming an adventurer made you unwilling to accept breakfast from an old companion? I knew it..."

As Syr Flova spoke, a glimmer of moisture appeared in her eyes.

Seeing Syr go that far, Ling Xuan truly could not refuse.

Before he could respond, Syr Flova revealed a mischievous smile and leaned closer to Ling Xuan.

"If you really feel bad about it, then come to the tavern again tonight..."

Looking at Syr Flova like this, Ling Xuan could not help but sigh inwardly.

She was really good at this...

If it were someone else, they would probably be easily wrapped around Syr's finger.

Nodding, Ling Xuan's voice rang out.

"Then I'll visit the tavern tonight!"

Hearing that, a beautiful smile appeared on Syr Flova's face.

"Mm, I'll await your arrival."

After taking the food Syr Flova handed him, Ling Xuan continued toward his destination.

The Dungeon!

As soon as he entered the Dungeon, Ling Xuan cut his way all the way to the Fifth Floor without any obstruction!

No monster could stop his advance.

Any monster that appeared before him undoubtedly fell beneath the sound of gunfire.

Ever since using Heavenly Fire Judgement, Ling Xuan had naturally stopped buying those useless adventurer swords!

His current Heavenly Fire Judgement was more than enough!

It was even a little excessive for dealing with these monsters.

It felt like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut...

Yet because of that, he successfully reached the Fifth Floor in only two hours.

Bang!

Another shot!

With the gunshot, another monster fell to the ground.

Ling Xuan stared coldly at the monster's corpse!

Then he smiled calmly.

After seeing that his stats had increased, he immediately turned and left the area.

He had already lost count of how many monsters he had killed along the way.

His stats had probably reached 999 by now, right?

Still, Ling Xuan felt somewhat disappointed...

After killing so many monsters, he had not found any useful skills.

It seemed he truly would only have a chance to obtain skills after reaching the Sixth Floor...

With that thought, Ling Xuan focused on searching for moving objects within his field of vision as he ventured deep into the intricate maze.

The orderly maze was formed from smooth floors, walls, and ceilings.

Though it was daytime, the Dungeon was, as its name suggested, a city beneath the earth.

It still possessed an eerie silence.

Not only were there no monsters, there was no sign of fellow adventurers either.

Only the sound of Ling Xuan's footsteps on the dirt echoed through the winding passageways.

Slaying War Shadow

As Ling Xuan advanced, he soon stepped into a new floor he had never entered before!

The Sixth Floor!

From here onward, these monsters would no longer be mere playthings!

Of course, that was only for novice adventurers.

Though Ling Xuan was also a novice adventurer, his strength simply could not be judged by ordinary standards!

Ling Xuan possessed absolute confidence.

It was the confidence that I am invincible among those of the same level!

If the Loki Familia knew what Ling Xuan was thinking, their lips would probably twitch slightly.

Then they would helplessly say, "You're being too modest."

After all, they had never seen a Level 1 adventurer who could defeat a Minotaur!

So in their eyes, Ling Xuan was practically equivalent to Level 2!

After proceeding for a while longer, Ling Xuan soon arrived at a vast hall.

The hall was square, with nothing to obstruct one's view.

As far as the eye could see was an empty space of pale green walls, utterly devoid of anything interesting.

Ling Xuan walked halfway into the room and stopped near its center.
