DN : [33] Warmth of Home!
🕑 Added 2023-12-31 16:04:00 +0000 UTCNot long after, August in the Dungeon encountered a Monster Migration, and news of him getting severely injured quickly spread throughout the familia.
August's relatively small room suddenly became crowded with quite a few people, making it somewhat cramped.
"I say, August, your luck, we don't want to talk about it. Monster Feast! Monster Migration! Lower-level monsters entering the mid-level! You encountered it all at once!"
Loki sat cross-legged on a chair, watching August, who was being healed by Riveria, and teased him.
The others around had weird expressions too.
Each of the situations down there, taken individually, could be considered unfortunate. But encountering all of them at once? That was truly reaching an extreme level of misfortune.
August was speechless, not wanting to say anything anymore.
"However, giving the monster migration to one of ours, that person sure has guts. August, don't worry, we won't let this person off!"
Loki's slightly narrowed eyes revealed a faint glint of coldness.
Not only Loki, but Finn, Gareth, Tiona, Tione, and even Bete were angry at the moment.
People from the same familia were companions, family. When one's family was maliciously involved in the monster migration and suffered such severe injuries, they had to avenge it.
"Aki, who are those scoundrels from that familia?"
Bete asked Aki beside him, his tone carrying a murderous intent.
"I don't know, but being chased by minotaurs, their strength should not be strong. They're probably not a top-notch familia."
"Then it must be someone from a small familia? Unable to match others in skills, they resorted to scheming against someone else. They deserve to die!"
As he spoke, Bete exuded a faint killing intent. As a level 5 adventurer, he had killed quite a few people.
"Bete, calm down. I will handle this matter!"
Finn spoke up at this moment. Although his tone wasn't as sharp as Bete's, it still carried anger.
This was the future of the familia he had chosen. If someone in the Dungeon had insufficient strength, that was one thing. But being maliciously involved in the monster migration by someone else was a different matter.
Moreover, coming from the era of a rampant dark faction, he wasn't exactly a kind-hearted person.
August, who was undergoing healing from Riveria, observed all this and felt a sense of warmth in his heart.
Although he had only known them for a few days and had limited interactions, the family-like concern touched August.
"Loki, do you want to recruit a talent?"
"Huh? What do you mean?"
"Literal meaning, do you want to recruit a talent?"
"Ho? It seems you know who transferred the monster to you?"
"That's right!"
"Intriguing!"
Loki suddenly smiled, but beneath the smile, there was a hint of doubt and confusion.
August had been in Orario for only a few days. How many people could he know?
"When I went to buy fried potato balls with Ais earlier, I met Takemikazuchi. He gave me some fried potato balls and asked me to look after his familia. So I went to check it out."
"The kid from Takemikazuchi?"
Loki's first reaction was disbelief because, as a god from the heavenly realm, she knew Takemikazuchi well.
As the God of War, Takemikazuchi was the type who wouldn't tolerate any sand in his eyes. If there were such people among his familia, he would handle it himself.
However, August's words made her have to believe because August had no reason to lie to her.
"No, wait. What did you just say? You and Ais went to buy fried potato balls together?"
Suddenly at this moment, Loki focused on the 'key point'.
In an instant, everyone in the room turned their attention to this 'critical' part.
"Uh, there's a problem..."
August, as the main character, was at a loss. Goodness, he was caught red-handed, and it was a bit embarrassing.
"Tell me, is anyone paying attention or not?"
Facing August's shout, everyone, including Riveria, turned their gaze away, refusing to look at August.
This made August's heart suddenly feel cold, and he also understood one thing. In Loki's familia, Ais was truly a genuine princess.
"Will everything be alright?"
Finn, at the end, still had some worries and said to Riveria.
"It's okay. The treatment is over, and the injuries have healed. Aki also gave August a healing potion earlier. He has already recovered quite a bit."
"Then I can rest assured."
Hearing what Riveria said, Finn was finally completely relieved.
However, this was normal. Loki, after all, was the upper god of the familia, and all the familia members were like her children. How could she casually harm her children.
After a bit of chaos, August was suppressed by Loki.
And he made a vow 'never to lay hands on Ais' under Loki's coercion.
But in August's heart, a firm idea had already taken root: he must win Ais over and make Loki cry bitterly.
Yes, bear a grudge even against one's own god.
"Loki, August has probably leveled up after killing four minotaurs. Shouldn't he be able to level up now?"
This sentence turned the slightly chaotic room into silence.
In an instant, everyone's gaze focused on August.
August, you've only received falna for a few days, not even half a month, and you can level up already?
"True, a few days ago, his stats had already reached the limit. Now, after the battle with minotaurs, his great achievements should be satisfied. If so, August, take off your clothes for us!"
Loki immediately challenged him, directly tearing and pulling off August's upper garment.
Even though Aki, Tiona, Tione, and Riveria subconsciously turned away, their curious glances sold them out.
"Uh, one question!"
Just as everyone was curious and ready to see August's situation, Loki suddenly said with a serious face.
"What's wrong?"
Finn walked over, thinking that something had happened.
"We, forgot to bring needles!"
Boom!
This sudden remark left everyone speechless. Loki, you're making jokes regardless of the situation.
As a logistical person, Aki quickly went to fetch the needle.
Thus, under everyone's gaze, Loki pricked his finger, and drops of divine blood fell on August's back, leaving behind a bloodstain.
With the integration of divine blood, the falna system was activated.
On August's back, the falna with a clown pattern appeared, along with the attribute skills written in divine text above.
