It Will Be Very Eye-Catching
"Finn! We're in!"
Just as Loki and Finn were discussing how to deal with Leo, the office door was suddenly pushed open forcefully.
Outside the door, several figures filed in, flooding into the room all at once and instantly doubling the population density.
Riveria exclaimed in surprise as she watched this group of uninvited guests barge in without even knocking.
"Ais, Tiona, Tione, Lefiya Viridis —why are you all here?"
Yes, the visitors were the three executives of the clan and the successor appointed by Riveria.
Leading the way were the Amazonian twins, who looked like they were cut from the same mold. It was Tiona had just forcefully pushed open the door and barged in without any ceremony.
"Commander!"
Tione followed closely behind Tiona, and as soon as she entered, all her attention was focused on the leader of the Prum. Her eyes turned into hearts as she rushed over, looking like a young girl in love meeting her sweetheart.
"----Feel sorry."
Ais, walking behind, noticed Riveria staring at her with a look of surprise, and unconsciously apologized.
"I'm so sorry, Lady Riveria, we've come uninvited."
Lefiya Viridis followed closely behind Ais, appearing nervous in front of her master and the princess of her tribe, bowing repeatedly in apology.
The arrival of the four young women instantly relaxed the previously serious atmosphere in the office, making it much less oppressive than before.
"What are you little girls doing here all of a sudden?"
Gareth looked at the group of girls with annoyance, seemingly blaming them for being so impulsive, but there was actually little blame in her tone.
"Hehe, Ais, did you miss me? That's why you came all this way to spend this long, lonely night with me, right?"
Loki's smile was particularly ungrateful, and the way he rubbed his hands together made it seem like he was about to pounce on Ais and have his way with her delicate body.
"No."
Ais denied Loki's statement without hesitation, and his expressionless face sent a chill down Loki's spine.
Although the girl's face showed no expression, Loki's intuition told her that Ais was already on guard in secret.
If he dared to rush forward, he would be met with an iron fist powerful enough to silence even a large monster on the spot.
Loki's eyes cleared, and he became completely docile.
"Stop fooling around, Tione."
On the other side, Finn was also fending off Tione, who was lunging at him, pressing her head down firmly to prevent her from hugging him.
Unfortunately, his arms were too short. Although Tione couldn't pull him into her arms, she still held him close, bringing a look of happiness to the Amazonian girl's face.
"N-No, as expected of the captain! I used all my strength, but I was still pinned down. The captain is truly the most manly man ever!"
Tione made no attempt to hide her love for the Prum captain; her fervent demeanor even made Finn's lips twitch, as if he couldn't take it anymore.
"I say, Tione, that's enough already. Can't you see Finn is quite troubled?"
As Tione's sister, Tiona couldn't bear to watch her infatuated behavior any longer and sighed deeply.
"What do you know? As an Amazon, you should bravely pursue love, otherwise what's the point of being an Amazon?"
Tione not only rejected her sister's advice, but also said such things as if it were perfectly natural.
Ironically, there's really no way to refute that.
After all, the Amazons are such a race. They love fighting and strong men. Once they set their sights on a man, they will not hesitate to use force to take him back. They are also the kind of people who go straight to the point and are ready to have children. Their direct and unrestrained behavior is well-known throughout the Lower World.
Tione was relatively alright; at least she didn't force herself on him. Tiona, on the other hand, was so innocent and romantic that she was completely unlike an Amazon, more like a human girl who hadn't grown up. If it were any other Amazon, they would probably already be considering whether to drug their sweetheart.
This unrestrained style startled Lefiya Viridis, who blushed instantly.
Compared to the free-spirited Amazons, the Elves are the true conservatives, all incredibly pure. Even when courting, they have to start by holding hands; the idea of throwing themselves at a man and professing love right away is completely foreign to them.
It was still a bit too stimulating for the pure and innocent elf girl.
Only Ais, who remained a detached observer throughout, stood there quietly, yet her presence was never weak.
The girl only needed to stand there to naturally become the focus of the entire scene. Even the elven royal family, who were said to be more beautiful than goddesses, could not overshadow her. Her presence was impossible to ignore.
"Alright, tell me, how did you all end up coming here together?"
Riveria took over Gareth's question and got back to the main topic.
The one who answered this question was none other than Tiona.
"It's all because of Loki."
The Amazonian girl pointed to the Chief God had somehow ended up sitting on the desk and said this.
"Huh?" Loki was taken aback, pointed at his own nose, and said, "What does this have to do with us?"
"How is this none of your business?" Tiona said, hands on her hips. "If you hadn't suddenly started yelling at home just now, how would we have been attracted here?"
"It's not just us; everyone in the clan is talking about it outside, saying, 'Loki, are you going on another drunken rampage?'"
"We were chosen as representatives, and we've come to see what's going on."
Loki was only belatedly awakened by Tiona's words.
Indeed, because of Leo, he was so excited that he didn't know how to control himself. He ran over here shouting at the top of his lungs, how could he not have alerted the members of his clan?
The entire clan's headquarters must be bustling with activity right now, right?
Thinking of this, Loki couldn't help but slap his forehead.
"I'm so sorry, it's really our fault. Let's go out and calm everyone down now."
With that, Loki jumped off the desk and ran out of the office without looking back. His hurried manner clearly showed that he was worried that the commotion he had caused among the Familia would escalate and eventually become uncontrollable.
"Gareth, why don't you go out too?"
While fending off Tione's relentless attacks, Finn spoke to the dwarf warrior sitting in the corner.
"Given the commotion, it wouldn't be appropriate for the clan leader not to step in and calm things down. You should go out and make an appearance, and find an excuse to gloss over this matter."
Upon hearing this, Gareth nodded, walked out of the office, and left.
"So... what exactly happened?"
Seeing that the Chief God and a leader of the clan had left, Lefiya Viridis timidly raised her hand and asked a question, drawing the girls' attention to Finn and Riveria.
Should we tell them?
Riveria hesitated for a moment, then turned to Finn and asked for his opinion.
"Go ahead and say it," Finn said calmly and with a smile. "Since we've already decided to announce it, they'll find out tomorrow even if we don't say it now."
Riveria thought for a moment, then finally nodded, agreeing with Finn's statement.
"So Loki wasn't just acting drunk? Something really big has happened?"
Tiona, her face full of curiosity, almost moved closer to Finn and Riveria.
Ais also looked at Riveria, her face expressionless but her eyes full of curiosity, proving that the girl was not completely uninterested in the matter.
Looking at Ais like this, Riveria could already foresee how much shock her upcoming words would bring to the girl.
Riveria could only sigh and, in a businesslike manner, explained the whole story.
"Actually, it's Leo's business."
Riveria's words startled the girls.
"Leo?"
Ais was the first to be stunned.
"He?"
Lefiya Viridis was also somewhat taken aback.
"Oh, so it's related to the wild man Ais brought back."
Tiona and Tione, on the other hand, showed expressions of great interest.
Then, they heard this sentence.
"He leveled up," Riveria said, one eye closed. "Just now, he officially reached Lv..."
2.
The room fell silent upon hearing this.
"Varied----"
Lefiya Viridis's surprise turned into astonishment.
"Lv.2?"
The excitement on Tiona and Tione's faces instantly turned into surprise.
Ais, as if she had heard something unbelievable, widened her eyes slightly, and for the first time, a noticeable change appeared on her usually emotionless face.
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! --!"
Seconds later, Tiona and Lefiya Viridis gasped in unison, their voices filled with disbelief.
"Leo is level 2? That's impossible!"
Tiona's gasp was almost as loud as Loki's shouts in the hallway not long ago.
"This... this can't be!" Lefiya Viridis covered her mouth, unable to believe what she was hearing, and said in utter astonishment, "How... how could he have leveled up to Lv.2 so soon?"
Yeah, how could it be level 2 already?
Not long ago, the other party had just received Blessing of the Gods and become a Lv.1 rookie adventurer.
Whether it's Ais, Tiona, Tione, Lefiya Viridis, or others, they all pay close attention to Leo.
Therefore, they clearly remember that it has not even been a month since Leo became an adventurer and received the Blessing of the Gods.
"To be more precise, it was twenty-seven days." Finn, as if he could read the girls' thoughts at that moment, tapped the table and said calmly, "Twenty-seven days ago, in the morning, he met us here. At that time, he had just come out of Loki's Divine Room and had been receiving the Falna for less than half an hour."
The meaning behind those words, and the message they were trying to convey, was clear to everyone.
Finn was telling them that Leo had indeed risen from a newly received Falna Being to Lv.2 in less than a month.
In an instant, Tiona was bewildered, Lefiya Viridis was speechless, and even Tione, who had been trying to pounce on Finn, stopped and fell into an indescribable silence.
As for Ais, she stood there blankly, only one sentence echoing in her mind.
"Twenty-seven days----"
This is a terrifying number, enough to cause a tsunami in the Lower World.
Ais vividly remembers the uproar she witnessed when she spent a year reaching Lv.2.
Her fellow members cheered, people in the city marveled, and even people from outside the city would come here from time to time to express their admiration for the time it took her to reach Lv.2, saying that she was the fastest person in history to reach Lv.2 and a record-breaking genius.
Although Ais didn't care much about these things, she understood how incredible it was to reach Lv.2 in just one year.
Just compare her to the sisters Tiona and Tione, and you'll see.
Because of their birth, Tiona and Tione were Falna from the moment they were born, and both of them reached Lv.2 at the age of five.
Ais received the Falna at the age of seven and reached Level 2 at the age of eight, making her three years older than Tiona and Tione.
But now, both Ais and the twin Amazon sisters are exactly sixteen years old, exactly the same age. As a result, Ais became a Level 2 adventurer three years later than them, is now the same as them, a Level 5 adventurer.
Therefore, it is clear that Ais is much better than Tiona and Tione in terms of personal potential and growth rate.
Tiona and Tione, who became Level 2 adventurers at the age of five and are now Level 5 adventurers, clearly have much higher potential than ordinary adventurers.
Compared to them, Ais is even more outstanding, which shows that this blonde, golden-eyed girl is among the top geniuses.
Her feat of reaching Lv.2 in just one year is still talked about today, and it remains the world's fastest leveling record that no one has been able to break in the past eight years.
But now, this record has been broken in a truly dreamlike way.
Twenty-seven days!
In just twenty-seven days, Leo leveled up to Lv.2!
How could this be?
"The commander wouldn't joke like that."
Tione said this in a calm tone, but her wavering appearance clearly showed that she was not completely calm inside.
"Is it really possible for someone to upgrade in less than a month?"
Tiona's eyes widened in surprise, her exaggerated expression hardly better than Loki's.
"That person—how could they—"
Lefiya Viridis's pointed ears twitched, and she whispered, still looking somewhat incredulous.
Ais remained completely silent.
"We're already preparing to report this to the guild." Riveria glanced at Ais worriedly and said, "By tomorrow, this matter should be completely out in the open."
"As the core members of the clan, remember to keep a close eye on Leo."
He will attract a lot of attention from now on.
T
Riveria's words left the girls speechless.
The girls remained silent, lost in thought, their expressions incredibly complex.
This night, many people are destined to be sleepless.
Especially that blonde, golden-eyed girl, she'll probably have a sleepless night.
