DN : [117] Freya Familia Blocks the Way!
🕑 Added 2024-03-08 16:00:05 +0000 UTCThe swelling desire was like a deadly poison, striking at the throat with bloodlust.
Although it wouldn't cause any pain, it would bring unimaginable pleasure.
Yet, this pleasure was the most terrifying thing.
Humans, as creatures, were inherently a collective of desires, anger, greed, pride, lust, gluttony, envy, and sloth, these seven sins originated from this.
But precisely because of this, humans were interesting, chosen by the gods.
In Orario, the majority of people acted for their own desires.
In essence, it was because of desire that humans continued to progress.
The combination of contradictions was the most accurate portrayal of humanity.
And August, as the master of the original sin of lust, was already an embodiment of desire.
Now, due to divine wine, his own desires rapidly expanded, ambitions for power, greed for money, lust for beautiful women, and more.
And all of this turned into nourishment for August.
Rumble~
Suddenly, a powerful pressure descended, directly enveloping the entire residence.
A green emblem representing moons and stars appeared on August's forehead.
Then, August slowly opened his eyes, filled with unprecedented excitement.
Beside him, Soma was momentarily stunned. This was divine wine, his masterpiece in the mortal world. Even gods would get drunk after drinking it. How could this human drink it and be fine?
Soon, August restrained his own pressure, and the lust emblem disappeared.
August felt it. At this moment, he could definitely match a Level 7. Even a battle against Ottar wouldn't be a hollow fight. Because just now, August had taken the first step in controlling the original sin of lust.
Before this, August could only be considered lucky to obtain the original sin of lust. But now, August had initially fused and controlled this power.
At the same time, August gained a new power, the ability to command lust.
August could perfectly control his own lust, and similarly, he could control the lust of anyone he touched.
In simple terms, even a chaste and virtuous woman could be turned into a seductress overnight, under August's control of the power of lust.
"Thank you, God Soma."
"Uh, as long as you're happy."
Soma didn't know how to respond anymore. He didn't want to deal with this eccentric August.
"Are you okay?"
"Of course, not only am I okay, but I also gained enormous benefits. I'll tell you tonight."
"Okay."
Ais didn't think too much. As long as August was fine, that was enough.
However, the two girls beside her blushed instantly, especially Lili, who was well aware of the affairs between men and women.
"God Soma, we'll take our leave now and return."
After saying this, August left with the three women, and their departure was quite imposing.
"Loki is really lucky to encounter such a monstrous child. I don't know how far you can go," Soma said deeply, taking a last glance at August's back.
In the end, he put down the tools in his hands and left the room.
Outside, whether in the room or on the streets of the familia, there were many familia members who had fainted.
August's words awakened him. Yes, as the head of the familia, he needed to guide his children. It was his fault to selfishly abandon them.
On the other side, August left the Soma Familia with the three women.
However, on the way, they encountered some unwelcome guests.
Swoosh~
Standing on the rooftops on both sides of the street were four adventurers wielding sword, hammer, spear, and axe.
And in front of the four was a black-haired catboy with animal ears.
"Kid, my lady wants to see you."
The leading catboy looked at August and said, with a tone filled with dissatisfaction, even carrying a hint of hostility.
Ais instinctively drew her sword, looking at them with extreme vigilance.
Allen Fromel, the vice-captain of the Freya Familia and an Level 6 adventurer known as the 'Vana Freya,' was Freya's top warrior.
As for the other four, they were also Level 5 adventurers known as the 'Gulliver Brothers,' four brothers who coordinated with each other. All of them were Level 5 adventurers, and together, their teamwork was enough to contend with an Level 6 and even defeat one.
"Allen Fromel, are you trying to provoke a war between familia?"
Ais said with a murderous intent because they mentioned August, who was her sore spot.
"Hmph, Ais, don't think that just because you've leveled up to Level 6, you can talk to me like this. There's still a huge difference between you and me. You better get that straight."
To Allen, Ais was quite disdainful. In his eyes, Ais was just a puppet doll. Moreover, even though both were Level 6, there was still an insurmountable gap between them.
"Freya wants to see me?"
August was somewhat surprised because it didn't match Freya's character.
"Brat, how dare you directly address Lady Freya's name?"
A strong killing intent suddenly filled the entire street. Allen really wanted to kill August.
"Oh? Want to kill me? Come, give it a try!"
August wasn't in a good mood either. Immediately, he prepared, and as someone who practiced Eight Thousand Sword Styles, his fighting intent was extraordinary, especially with how it was masked by his slaughter intent.
Unexpectedly, it completely suppressed Allen's killing intent, and even made his killing intent faintly dissipate.
This surprised both Allen and Gulliver Brothers. They had investigated August, who was only Level 3. Although he had incredible potential, how could he possess such a terrifying aura like this? How many monsters had he killed?
"Since you've come to my doorstep, let me reciprocate. Otherwise, it would be disrespectful."
As he spoke, magical power began to condense, shadows rose, and two shadow blades formed, ready to strike.
Giving Ais a meaningful look, she instinctively shielded Bell and Lili.
She believed in August because he was very powerful.
And Allen's face turned a bit ugly. He was already unhappy with August, and now he was even suppressed by him. This made him lose his ego, especially since August had taken away all of Freya's favor since his appearance.
