Closest to the Gods

"No..."

Aina paused for a moment, then grasped Ming Ge's hand.

Although it was just a simple handshake, and he took the initiative, it made her face turn bright red.

"Are you shy?"

Loki teased, "After all, the person in front of you is a true hero, so it's only natural that Aina- chan is shy."

"It has nothing to do with this!!"

Aina blushed and retorted.

Ming Ge wasn't surprised, after all, he had had physical contact with Riveria before, and she hadn't shown any unusual reaction.

Even though Riveria was able to control her germaphobia after becoming an adventurer, she could only suppress some instinctive reactions, not hide this discomfort.

"Since there's no resistance, that makes things much simpler."

Ming Ge nodded slightly, then transferred the magic power into Aina's body through her palm.

The tangible magic adjusted her body, making her injured body feel much better.

Then, it attracts the viruses together, and uses Absorption Magic to expel them.

Finally, the process of increasing Aina's resistance took only about seven minutes.

"Alright."

Ming Ge withdrew her hand, and Aina's face was already flushed.

"You didn't drug me, did you?"

Looking at Aina's expression, Loki gave Ming Ge strange look.

"How is that possible?"

Ming Ge rolled her eyes and said, "It's just that the body gets rid of the disease, and the adjustment process will make the body feel comfortable, just like a massage."

The Regulation Magic allows one's own magic power to enter another person's body, and the modulation process is quite comfortable, which is why she showed this expression.

"So this counts as giving Aina a full-body massage?"

Loki stroked his chin, his eyes full of amusement.

"If you can't speak properly, then shut up."

Riveria tapped Loki on the head and said speechlessly, "Didn't you see that Aina is almost fainting from embarrassment?"

Watching Aina imitate an ostrich, Loki's smile widened.

Don't let Loki's seemingly lewd nature fool you; that's just his "character persona." He may have possessiveness, but it's not that excessive.

In the original story, she doted on Ais, which is why she was so devoted to Ais.

She doesn't actually like girls, and her frivolous behavior is just a deliberate attempt to get closer to the children, which is why she teases Aina when she sees her like this.

"By the way, does this mean I'm fully recovered?"

"Riveria asked."

"Her illness stems from insufficient physical strength and weak resistance to external factors, so it will continue to recur over time. The best solution is for her to become an adventurer, ideally reaching level 2, at which point she will no longer get sick."

Ming Ge said, "The reason I didn't get sick in my hometown is probably because the environment there is better."

"I see..."

Riveria smiled wryly, "It's a bit late to become an adventurer now. The environment of the Dungeon... I can't even guarantee my own safety, let alone protect Aina."

"Well... actually, things are fine as they are now, and I don't want to cause any trouble for Lady Riveria."

"Aina said softly."

At first Aina left her hometown with Riveria, but Riveria always rejected Aina becoming Loki Familia.

For the people of the lower realm, becoming a member of a god's kin is tantamount to becoming the god's property.

After learning about Loki's personality and accepting him, Aina decided against becoming an adventurer.

For her, taking care of Riveria's life was more important.

Riveria respected Aina's choices and did not interfere with Aina actions; this resulted in Aina not even becoming an adventurer after being away from her hometown for twelve years!

Riveria originally thought that she could protect Aina and it didn't matter whether she became an adventurer or not, but she heard from Ming Ge about the reason for Aina's poor health, so she couldn't help but feel annoyed.

In fact, Aina's poor health began after she left her hometown. As the sacred land of the elves, the environment there was much better than the outside world, which is why Aina was able to remain healthy for so many years.

"I'm not trying to cause trouble!"

Riveria said with dissatisfaction, "Aina has taken care of me for so long. Without Aina, my life would be a complete mess. It's all Aina that things haven't turned out this way."

"It's okay for you to rely on me a little!"

Aina was touched by Riveria's words.

Although her expression remained weak, her thoughts had not changed.

"There are other methods."

Ming Ge said, "Once the country is established, I will spread some innate magic so that Aina can learn Regulation Magic and condition her body."

"I am extremely grateful."

Riveria looked at Ming Ge with gratitude.

I feel like I owe her more and more, but no matter what, it's good that Aina is getting better.

"Finally, some peace and quiet."

Looking at the cleaned-up hall, Alfia shook her head and said, "There's something unsettling about this place. I'll never host a banquet like this at home again."

"Indeed, if we're going to hold one in the future, it'll probably be at the Babel Tower."

Ming Ge smiled.
