Chapter 152 Seeking External Help, Loki's Familia
"Who is it?"
Upon learning that someone wanted to deal with them, Ryu's tone became tinged with a chilling killing intent.
She is no longer the naive girl who debated "justice" with Kaguya; her hands are stained with the blood of countless people, and her mindset has long since changed.
She still has a sense of "justice" in her heart, but she will not pity her enemies. In a sense, she is also influenced by Roy. Once she determines that someone is an enemy, she will eliminate them completely and wipe out their entire clan!
Looking at Ryu's murderous face, who was always ready to wipe out someone's whole family, Roy really wanted to prove to others that he wasn't the one who corrupted the atmosphere in the clan!
But his explanation was so weak: "I don't know yet, but it will probably be at the Monster Festival in two days." Roy shook his head and said.
Roy was also observing Ryu's reaction. If Cassandra had told Ryu those words, the latter would most likely not have believed them. It seemed that having someone else relay them would avoid being affected by the curse of the "prophetic dream."
Of course, there are also personal factors.
Cassandra's lack of confidence and self-assurance, coupled with her constant talk of what she dreamed about, made it hard for anyone to believe her.
If she could change her image and present information in a reasonable and well-founded manner, even if others didn't believe her, they would at least take it as a reference.
Ryu's lips parted slightly. "What can I do?"
Roy replied, "Fight and protect!"
Ryu nodded emphatically. She had already lost her clan companions once, and she would never repeat the same mistake. The last time she encountered the floor master, Amphispina, it was just like that. She would rather sacrifice herself to protect Roy and the others.
Knowing that something was about to happen, everyone reduced the number of times they went out. Daphne and Cassandra, who were originally scheduled to go to the dungeon for training, stayed in the courtyard to hone their skills.
The same was true for the goddess Astraea; everyone could sense an atmosphere of impending doom.
As for why they didn't run away?
The same logic applies: if others want to scheme against them, they'll do it sooner or later. Do you think they'll never return to Orario? You can't be a thief for a thousand days without being on guard against them for a thousand.
Moreover, knowing that the Monster Festival would bring disaster, how could the goddess Astraea, who is in charge of "justice," stand idly by? After all, even during the perilous Great Conflict, the Astraea Familia did not flee.
Do you think you can scare them off with just unconfirmed information? That's impossible.
Roy searched through all the information in his mind but couldn't find this event from the original timeline. If it was an underground riot, there would be no trace of it.
Therefore, he was certain that someone was targeting them.
Roy's lips curled into a sinister smile. If that's how it is, on the day of the Monster Festival, he'll make sure all those people die here and wipe out all the demons and monsters!
Having made up his mind, Roy left the Star Garden and went to the Loki Familia's residence—the Twilight Mansion.
In fact, the two clans' residences are very close, both located in the northernmost part of Orario, separated only by a main street.
Roy crossed North Street and came into view the Loki Familia's encampment. As one of the two strongest Familias in Orario, the Loki Familia had a considerable number of members, at least a thousand.
So they bought a large area and built a number of luxury residences, which surrounded the main mansion like stars around the moon, with towering walls enclosing it.
Roy remembered being here before.
Unfortunately, the sign at the entrance, "No unauthorized persons or dogs allowed," turned him away. The guard at the time looked at him with disdain, tapping the sign with his finger; the meaning was clear.
Looking at it now, the entrance is empty; the sign must have been thrown away.
"The budding of justice?!"
As Roy approached the entrance to the Twilight Mansion, the two guards were startled and stared at him warily.
The entire Loki Familia knew about "Sprouts of Justice" and their "grudge," and they subconsciously assumed that Roy had come to cause trouble.
Roy, who is known as the strongest LV.3 adventurer, and his men dared not be careless in the slightest.
Seeing that both guards were LV.2 adventurers, which would be considered the core combat force of other clans, Roy could only marvel at the rich resources of the Loki Familia.
Roy smiled kindly. "I need to see Commander Finn. Could you do me that?"
The two guards exchanged a glance; if it were an unknown person, they would have simply turned them away.
"Please let us in to report!" One of the guards jogged into the main residential area.
Roy was not surprised by this; the respect others earned was the result of their own strength.
Two minutes later, the guard ran back, his expression respectful. "Sprout of Justice, please come in!"
Roy followed the guard into the Loki Familia's territory, behaving himself and not looking around or wandering around. Although the Familia's territory wasn't full of secrets, asking questions or moving around randomly could easily offend others.
This guard was also responsible for monitoring him.
Upon entering the main house's living room, Roy finally met the leader of the Loki Familia.
Finn Timner the Brave!
The most legendary dwarf of our time, a handsome young man with blond hair and blue eyes. He is only 119 centimeters tall, yet he gives off an aura of towering stature.
Despite his youthful appearance, Finn is actually 38 years old. The blessing is not enhancement, but evolution. His body will continuously change in the direction of a god. The higher the level, the longer the lifespan.
A level 6 Finn, barring any unforeseen circumstances, could easily live for two or three hundred years, and this number would increase further with continued upgrades.
Roy said, "Commander Finn, I've heard so much about you."
Finn sat on the sofa and nodded slightly. "I've been hearing your name a lot lately."
At this moment, Finn did something that surprised Roy: he stood up and bowed, "There is something I need to apologize to you for. The sign at the door was just something the God did on a whim, without any malicious intent."
Roy glanced at Finn from afar. It was a rare sight to see the leader of the strongest familia bowing his head to someone, as it concerned the face of the entire familia.
If Nalan Yanran had this attitude, things wouldn't have escalated to the point of "Don't underestimate a young man's potential." The martial world isn't just about fighting and killing; it's about human relationships and social interactions.
"It's all in the past now."
Roy shook his head indifferently. To say that he was really angry back then was not entirely true. There were many other families with even worse attitudes than the Loki Familia.
Furthermore, the Loki Familia sign wasn't specifically targeting him; even high-ranking adventurers were easily stopped. Finn's attitude was so clear that this matter was essentially over.
"Please sit down."
Finn watched Roy with great interest. He had been following Roy's rise to prominence ever since. Roy's victory over Hyacinthus, who was at level 3, with level 2 was a battle that deeply shocked Finn and filled him with excitement.
Now, this face-to-face meeting seems to have given him a deeper understanding of Roy.
Roy sat down on the sofa opposite Finn.
Finn smiled slightly. "Justice is sprouting, and then you come looking for me?"
