Chapter 407 Freya's War Game
"roar!!"
Dozens of thunderous beasts roared in unison, their roars converging into a terrifying sonic wave that ripped through eardrums and shook the soul, crashing into everyone's hearts.
Both are high-level LV.6 monsters, and their potential abilities are almost the same as the Poisonous Centipede Dragon encountered in Dragon Nest, except that they lack long-range sniping.
People below level 3 are so frightened by the deafening sound that their legs go weak.
"Aaaaaaaahhhhhh!"
Faced with this sudden torrent of strange beasts, Freya's Familia, caught completely off guard, was instantly overwhelmed.
Wherever the terrifying thunderous beast passed, Freya's Familia's lines collapsed like sandcastles in a downpour. Amidst the blinding flashes of lightning, only a series of screams and the crisp sound of metal breaking could be heard.
In just a few breaths, Freya Familia had lost nearly half of its members. If it weren't for Haji Bellpert's treatment, virtually no one below LV.5 would have survived.
Hedin managed to organize a team, prioritizing the protection of Freya; he dared not gamble on Roy, that madman.
Through meticulous analysis, Hedin keenly perceived Roy's inherently adventurous and mad nature; if pushed too far, Roy would even dare to kill a god!
One person can form an army!
Numbers are meaningless in front of Roy, who single-handedly suppressed the Freya Familia!
Hegni, the four Flame Gold Warriors, and others were all defeated. Amidst the collapse and defeat, only two figures stubbornly resisted.
LV.7 Commander and Vice Commander Ota and Allen!
"drink!"
Ota let out a deep battle roar from the depths of his throat, gripping the door-sized black sword tightly with both hands. Without dodging or avoiding, like a raging beast, he fiercely slashed down at the charging thunderous beast!
The giant sword, carrying the force of a collapsing mountain, crashed down, shattering several thunder beasts that had pounced on it, causing them to groan and disintegrate.
Sizzle! Sizzle! Sizzle!
The surging electric currents gnawed at Ota's body like venomous snakes, leaving charred marks on his massive frame. But Ota only paused slightly before stepping forward again, enduring the erosion of the lightning with unparalleled endurance and willpower.
On the other side, Allen's swift figure transformed into a fleeting silver chariot.
puff!
The silver spear in the cat-man's hand transformed into a deadly streak of light, piercing through several thunder beasts with astonishing accuracy.
Based on his valuable experience from fighting Roy, Allen has an amazing ability to predict the attack patterns and blast radius of the Thunder Beast.
Every time the Thunder Beast is on the verge of death, it erupts.
Allen's figure retreated swiftly like a ghost, skillfully avoiding the terrifying paralyzing thunderstorm, leaving only illusory afterimages in his place.
With unparalleled endurance and physique, Otto confronted the golden lightning head-on, while Allen maneuvered and maneuvered with extreme speed and experience. The two were like two fortresses, stubbornly maintaining the last fighting spirit and dignity of their clan.
Rumble!!
The changes on the battlefield were so significant that they quickly attracted the attention of the entire Orario community.
The Freya Familia engages in daily battles, which was originally just a routine occurrence, until someone happens to spot Roy's figure, instantly causing a huge uproar.
News of the Astrea Familia leader being besieged by the Freya Familia in the battlefield spread quickly.
When countless gods and adventurers arrived.
Countless eyes were drawn to the deafening thunder and deafening roar, rushing to higher ground to watch the battlefield not far away, where lightning raged and strange beasts galloped. When they saw the situation below, they were all horrified, and cries of alarm rose and fell.
"That's a madman!"
"Roy is actually fighting with Lady Freya! Oh my god, my worst fears have come true!"
"He single-handedly fought against the entire Freya Familia and even gained the upper hand? Roy's brother is insane!"
The gods were shocked and gasped.
"Tsk tsk, that brat, can't he stand not causing trouble all day long?!" Loki grumbled.
"This time it's probably not Roy who started it, after all, that goddess's temperament—" Hermes smiled wryly. Roy's appearance on the battlefield was self-evident; it must have been something that the goddess Freya had done.
The guild members are devastated. The two strongest clans must not fight in the city!
Freya gazed at the adversity on the battlefield, her beautiful face shrouded in frost, but she did not intervene, only pursing her lips tightly.
Leave the professional tasks to the professionals!
"roar!"
Suddenly, Ota's muscles bulged like iron as he withstood the tearing and paralysis of the destructive lightning, forcefully smashing through several thunderous beasts blocking his path.
Breaking through to Roy's side, Ota's eyes turned bloodshot, and he raised the Black Sword, worth over 400 million, high, unleashing a terrifying force capable of shattering mountains and splitting the earth, and slashed fiercely down at Roy, who was at the center of the Thunder Beast frenzy.
Transfer to a higher position!
Roy's eyes were calm as still water, and the spatial fluctuations instantly swallowed up his and Astraea's figures.
boom!!
Ota's Black Sword tore through the afterimages, and Wolf's Fierce Slash landed where the two had been standing. The earth cracked open, creating a bottomless chasm!
Just as Roy and Astraea landed in another open area.
call out!
A streak of silver lightning had already struck!
With his unparalleled speed, Allen charged forward and arrived at the two's landing point.
The silver spear in Allen's hand transformed into a cold glint that tore through vision, swiftly piercing Roy's throat with lightning speed.
Roy wrapped one arm tightly around Astraea's slender waist, protecting her to his side, while his other hand magically drew out the elven holy sword. A dazzling emerald light flashed, and the blade drew a perfect arc, accurately blocking the sharpness of the silver spear.
clang!!
Guns and swords clashed!
A clear, resonant sound, like a dragon's roar, yet containing terrifying power, suddenly exploded.
Two terrifying forces erupted at the point where the blade and the spear tip met, and an invisible shockwave spread out instantly. The solid ground beneath their feet shattered into dust, and the entire battlefield shook violently.
"That bastard has gotten stronger again!"
Allen gritted his teeth, feeling the terrifying power emanating from the blade opposite him, and a strained expression appeared on his handsome, aloof cat-man face.
Allen's abilities are by no means weak!
Agility is a weak point; through the daily battles of Freya's Familia, her dexterity and durability are top-notch, only her strength and magic power are slightly inferior.
These are just the basic stats; Allen's stats will be further improved through skill enhancements.
However, Roy is the real numerical monster.
Roy's eyes were cold as he gripped his sword in one hand, his arm muscles bulging as his power erupted once more, and the elven holy sword pressed forward with unstoppable momentum.
Bang!
Allen grunted, his feet involuntarily staggering back a step, leaving a deep crater in the cracked ground. He felt numbness in his hands and had to switch from holding the gun with one hand to two, bracing himself against the barrel.
The enormous gap in strength was obvious!
Astraea, held tightly in his arms, looked up at Roy's profile, which was so close to hers. The boy's jaw was clenched, his lips were pressed together, and his eyes were sharp as a hawk's, as he was completely focused on the battle before him.
It's said that a focused man is the most attractive.
An irrepressible surge of emotion, like a warm ocean current, quietly flowed through the goddess's heart, bringing a captivating blush to her exquisite face.
"roar!"
Allen was not fighting alone. Ota's heavy, mountain-like figure approached, and the Black Sword once again stirred up a terrifying gale, slashing down on him.
Transfer to a higher position!
Faced with the attack of two specialized LV.7s, and having to protect Astraea beside him, a direct confrontation was not the best strategy, so Roy did not hesitate to activate his magic.
A spatial undulation resembling water ripples emerges.
Rumble!!
Roy and Astrea vanished instantly, leaving behind only a devastated landscape and the missed attacks of the two top Freya Familia members.
The summoned thunderous beasts suppress the fierce Freya Familia, while Roy holds his sister in his arms and fights alone against "The Mighty One" Ota and "Goddess Chariot" Allen!
The gods were so excited that their faces turned red.
While Roy was locked in battle with the Freya Familia, Hestia, imprisoned in a luxurious basement within the compound, was cursing and swearing.
"That wretched Freya!"
"Let me out right now!!"
"Freya, what are you trying to do? Ten days of absence! The boss is definitely going to fire me, waaaah!"
During her ten days of imprisonment, Hestia did nothing but curse Freya every day, and when she got tired of cursing, there was nothing she could do.
Since things have come to this, let's eat first!
In this basement, apart from the restriction of personal freedom, everything is available, and Freya's Familia unconditionally fulfills all of Hestia's demands.
This can be considered Freya's compensation to Hestia.
"Haha, this is so funny!"
Hestia seemed to have returned to the time when she first descended to the mortal realm. She would eat her fill, play, and sleep when she was tired. She read books written by children from the mortal realm with great eagerness, and was extremely interested in the knowledge and wisdom contained within them.
With food and lodging provided, Hestia wouldn't mind staying here for hundreds of thousands of years if she weren't worried about Little Bell and wanted to see her friends on the surface.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Until this day, the explosion of the Thunder Beast sent a powerful tremor through the area, shaking the earth and causing the basement walls to crack and dust to fall. Hestia, terrified, covered her head with her hands and huddled in a corner, trembling. "What's going on?!"
The two Freya Familia members responsible for guarding Hestia also changed their expressions drastically.
A tall, slender girl in a long robe, with delicate features and half her face obscured by long gray hair, arrived. "The madman has invaded the battlefield! Her Majesty the Goddess has ordered everyone to immediately go to his aid. Leave Hestia to me!"
"yes!"
The two LV.3 members of the clan, without suspecting anything, immediately picked up their weapons and ran uphill.
There's a reason why the two are so obedient.
The girl who gave them instructions was named Helen. Although she was only a Level 2 adventurer, she was the personal maid of the goddess Freya and held a very important position, second only to high-ranking officials like Allen and Hedin.
After dismissing the two members of the clan, Helen unlocked the basement door. "Come out, you're free!"
"what?"
Hearing this, Hestia, who was so engrossed in her vacation that she forgot all about home, showed a hint of confusion and reluctance on her cute little face. Her vacation was over so soon.
Seeing Hestia's reaction, Helen was both amused and exasperated. No wonder her own goddess also adored this loli goddess; she was pure and frank, a true national treasure among the eccentric gods.
"Because of your disappearance, 'Madman' Roy and Bell Craney have started fighting with Freya's Familia," Helen explained, highlighting the gravity of the situation.
"What?!"
The shocking news struck Hestia like a thunderbolt. Her eyes widened, and she sprang out of bed, slipping on her slippers and rushing to the door.
Just as her hand touched the doorknob.
"Hestia, have you been happy lately?" Helen's voice sounded behind Hestia, but it wasn't the cold tone she used before.
Instead, they are more lively, cheerful, and outgoing.
Those who frequently dine at "The Abundant Mistress" will feel a strong sense of familiarity, and the name "Hiel Frova" will subconsciously come to mind.
Hestia turned around, her jewel-like eyes fixed on Helen. "Who—are you?"
"Who knows? Maybe she's a servant accompanying a goddess, maybe she's a tavern sign girl, maybe she's a girl crying in a sea of flowers, looking for a partner—" Helen smiled playfully.
After a brief silence and eye contact, Hestia seemed to understand something, her face puffed up with anger.
"Don't mess with me!"
"Hmph, I'm not happy at all!"
Hestia let out a disgruntled snort, uttered a curt remark, and her signature black twin tails drew two vibrant arcs in the air before she dashed out the door like a gust of wind, without looking back.
Helen simply watched him leave in silence.
After Hestia left, Helen reverted to her aloof appearance. The transformation magic allowed her to share Freya's five senses and unilaterally perceive Freya's emotions.
When Hestia arrived on the surface, panting, the scene before her suddenly opened up.
What unfolded before her was a terrifying spectacle, like the opening scene of an epic war epic!
The tense and menacing atmosphere was so palpable that it pressed heavily on the entire open space, as if even the air itself had solidified into a cold, leaden block.
The battlefield was clearly divided into two parts.
On one side is the Astrea Familia.
Attracted by the fierce battle on the battlefield were not only gods, adventurers, and civilians, but also the girls of the Astrea Familia!
Upon hearing that Roy and Astrea were under attack, the girls were frantic and rushed over at lightning speed.
Everyone mobilized!
Ryu, Tione, Tiona, Daphne, Cassandra, Alexie, Kaguya — nineteen girls appeared in different locations, ready for battle.
The familiar scene inevitably brings to mind Freya's surprise attack on the Star Garden, when the Astrea Familia needed the help of the Loki Familia to withstand Eren and his group.
Now, the polarities have reversed!
It's a poignant reminder that when Freya's Familia is attacked by Roy and his men, it's a case of fortunes turning around!
Compared to the fiercely determined Astrea Familia girls, the Freya Familia was in a terrible state, having already been indiscriminately ravaged by Roy.
Only Ota and Allen remained in good condition.
Along with the remaining forces led by Hedin, Freya watched the battle. With the blessing of faith in these sycophants, she forcibly supported her body, forming a strict and murderous formation, like a powerful bow ready to be drawn, her gaze like a tempered blade, locked onto Roy and the others on the opposite side.
In the heart of this suffocating atmosphere, the confrontation between the two figures pushes the tension to its peak.
Roy stood tall and straight like a pine tree, his gaze icy and penetrating, meeting the gaze head-on without flinching.
At the end of his gaze was Otto, the pinnacle of Freya's Familia. This pig-man king's burly body was like an unshakeable iron tower. His face was expressionless, except for a pair of calm, deep eyes that reflected Roy's figure. There was no anger or contempt in his gaze, only a pure, cold fighting spirit that locked onto its prey.
Their razor-sharp gazes collided silently in the void, sparking invisible flames.
The two sides reached a stalemate, with tensions running high!
Hestia felt a chill run down her spine upon seeing this, and even breathing became incredibly difficult.
"Hestia!!"
Everyone immediately noticed Hestia's appearance.
"Freya, look what you've done!"
Hestia's face flushed red as she pointed at Freya and accused her, "I've gained two pounds!"
Fat — I've gained two pounds?
Everyone looked puzzled, and involuntarily glanced at Hestia's iconic petite figure. Her arms and legs were still so slender—where had she gained weight? She still had that adorable loli-like figure.
Just then, as if to emphasize her "loss", Hestia suddenly straightened her back.
Everyone's gaze shifted downwards by three centimeters.
The fabric of her clothes was stretched taut, and her chest, which was already impressive enough to make her stand out from the crowd, now displayed its magnificent size and presence in a breathtaking manner!
"Pfft!"
Loki, who had rushed over to watch the spectacle, was the first to break down, especially when he saw Hestia's "I've lost out big time" expression. His gloating smile froze, and tears of blood streamed down her face. "You little dwarf, what are you talking about?!"
"Why did they give this tiny, childlike girl such unfair specifications? Waaaaah!"
"God! This is unfair!"
Everyone looked at her strangely. Just how good was the food Freya provided for Hestia? Was she feeding her pigs?
Freya ignored these trivial matters; Hestia and Bell had lost their significance. Her violet eyes were fixed on Astrea.
"Astraea, let's play war games!"
"Let's get to the bottom of everything that's happened so far!"
Seeing someone you like get hurt makes you feel worried and heartbroken. This is the simplest way to confirm your feelings, to ascertain your own heartfelt emotions.
No, Freya would never admit that!
This was to fully see Roy's soul radiance. Only under certain extreme circumstances would the mysterious power on the boy's body vibrate, and then she would force Roy into that state.
War games are the best choice!
Otherwise, since Roy, who possesses spatial magic, can come and go freely, the boy would have to stay in a specific place.
Freya didn't want to wait a moment longer, especially since she believed that her children would win!
"Oh oh oh oh oh oh!"
"A war game played by Lady Freya!"
"Your opponent is the Astrea Familia, Goddess Freya! You must be careful!"
The gods leaped and bounded like monkeys, letting out a burst of excited shouts. The adventurers stared wide-eyed; the strongest kin were about to wage war!
Astraea never expected Freya to propose a "war game." Staring at her, there was no hint of a joke on Freya's stunningly beautiful face.
"If you win, plunder the assets, return the gods—whatever you want. Of course, if I win, it's the same!" Freya said casually.
She seemed oblivious to the horrific scene that had unfolded before.
Roy stormed into the battlefield and single-handedly wreaked havoc on the entire Freya Familia. If you add the rest of the Astrea Familia to that list—
"Agree to it. If you win, this will also benefit you. For example, you can command Ota and the others when you launch the next campaign." Freya stared straight at Roy with her alluring yet resolute eyes.
Destroy the filthy immortal essence on the sixty-fifth floor!
It's not surprising that Freya knew about this since Roy had already handed the information over to the guild.
Astraea looked at Roy, leaving the choice to the boy she had been so concerned about.
"Alright, it's time to put an end to everything!"
