"The Main God of that monster Familia..."
This kind of whispering buzzed in the air like flies.
Hair didn't really care about this.
After all, he had long grown accustod to this kind of treatnt back in the Heavens.
Back then, when he walked upon the white jade corridors of the Divine Realm, the gazes cast by the surrounding Gods were a thousand tis more blatant than this.
In comparison.
The topics these people were discussing now were actually exceptionally pleasing to the ear.
Hair walked straight through the crowd and arrived at the counter on the left side of the hall.
Behind the counter.
That Half-Elf figure with long chestnut hair was still sitting there.
—Eina Tulle.
One of the Guild's ace advisors.
However, at this mont.
This Half-Elf miss, who usually always wore a gentle smile and showed the utmost care for rookie adventurers, simply didn't have the ti to look up and see who the newcor was.
Her head was almost buried in that mountainous pile of docunts.
Her brows were tightly furrowed, those two beautiful eyebrows almost twisting into a knot.
The quill in her hand dashed rapidly across the parchnt, emitting a hurried scratch-scratch-scratch sound.
Recently, the Dungeon's abnormal movents had been frequent, with reports from the middle floors flying in like snowflakes. Adding to that were the various tedious statistical tasks handed down on a whim by the bigwigs at the top.
This dedicated advisor miss was probably so busy right now that she had to calculate the ti cost in her head even just to take a sip of water.
Hair stood in front of the counter and lightly tapped the wooden surface with his finger.
Knock, knock.
The crisp tapping sound did not interrupt Eina's movents.
She didn't even raise her head, rely continuing to bury herself in writing while rapidly speaking in a practiced tone:
"If you're here to accept a quest, please go to the large display board on the right. If you're exchanging Magic Stones, please go to the innermost window. If you're seeking advisor consultation, please first take a number from the box over there and wait in line. If you're here to file a complaint, please turn left imdiately upon exiting and stuff your suggestion form into the red box. Thank you for your cooperation."
Her speaking speed was as fast as a machine gun.
It was completely subconscious.
Hair raised his eyebrows.
"I am here to update the adventurer level information for my Familia mbers."
"Understood, up..date.. infor..ma..tion...."
Eina's inertial reply continued out of her mouth.
The quill in her hand still glided across the parchnt by inertia, writing the final word of the previous docunt.
That cursive letter 'D' was only halfway written.
Then.
Eina's brain finally finished its delayed processing of the information contained in the sentence just now.
Update Familia mbers' adventurer level information?
The voice sounded a bit familiar?
Wait.
This voice is...
Snap!
A sudden sound.
The quill in Eina's hand jerked violently.
The sharp nib directly pierced through the thick parchnt, leaving an irreversible mark on the important statistical docunt she had spent all morning organizing.
There was even a drop of ink that fell with a splat, highly inelegantly splashing onto the paper and blooming into a pitch-black stain.
But at this mont, Eina could no longer afford to feel heartbroken over this docunt.
Her writing motion froze in mid-air.
Her entire person seed to have been hit with an immobilization spell, maintaining her head-down posture, completely frozen for a full second.
Then.
She stiffly raised her head.
Her line of sight traced up from the slender hand resting on the wooden counter, finally freezing on that familiar face.
Black hair, black eyes.
Wearing a faint smile that inexplicably made her heart palpitate just by looking at it.
"H-Hair-sama?!"
Eina abruptly stood up.
The magnitude of her movent was so large that she even knocked over the chair behind her.
Clang!
The heavy solid wood chair smashed onto the floor, letting out a loud crash.
In the hall, which was originally noisy but still considered orderly, this loud crash seed exceptionally abrupt.
The Guild staff who had been pretending to work, the adventurers haggling at the counters, and the onlookers pricking up their ears to eavesdrop on the commotion here...
Their gazes uniformly focused over in an instant.
The air in the entire hall seed to solidify at this mont.
It was so quiet you could even hear a pin drop.
Eina's fair face, which usually always maintained an intellectual air, was currently written all over with disbelief.
Those erald-green eyes were wide open, her pupils trembling violently.
Completely ignoring the surrounding gazes that felt as if they could burn through a person, and also ignoring her own embarrassing loss of composure just now, she propped both hands on the counter, leaned forward, and stared intently at Hair.
"Hair-sa..ma... you... what did you just s..ay?"
"You said..."
Eina subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"You are here to update... your Familia m..bers'... adventurer lev..els?!"
This sentence.
She recognized every single word.
But strung together and spoken from the mouth of this God, it made Eina feel an intense sense of unreality, as if the entire world had beco absurd in this mont.
After all, one must know.
Eina was well aware of how much ti had passed since that group of young girls registered as adventurers at the Guild.
Three days?
Or two days?
At the absolute most, it was definitely less than five days!
As a senior advisor of the Guild, Eina had worked in this Pantheon for so many years and had seen countless adventurers with decent talent.
But.
Even the one hailed as the [Fastest in the World], affiliated with the Loki Familia—the Sword Princess, Miss Ais Wallenstein.
It took her a full year to level up from Lv.1 to Lv.2.
This was already a miracle that broke historical records and was relished by countless people.
Now.
Three days?
No, not even three days.
If this was real.
This was no longer sothing that words could describe.
"Hair-sama... you an..."
Eina felt her brain was sowhat insufficient, her voice drifting as if she were dreaming.
"Your Familia mbers... in a re three days, have already completed... the accumulation of Great Deeds? Completed the breakthrough of their ability values?"
Looking at this Half-Elf miss who was already doubting life, Hair nodded slightly, held up two fingers, and corrected her.
"To be precise, it's two days."
"It was already completed last night."
Eina opened her mouth.
No sound ca out.
Two days.
"This... is impossi..."
Eina subconsciously muttered to herself.
Directly compressing Miss Ais Wallenstein's fastest level-up ti, compressing the ti for level sublimation to a re two days...
Let alone in the labyrinth city of Orario.
Even looking at the entire long river of history of the Lower World.
This was an unprecedented 'Divine Miracle' enough to overturn all cognition.
The crowd in the Guild hall also began to stir.
"Hey... I didn't mishear that, did I?"
"Two days? Level up?"
"Are you kidding ! I've been stuck at Lv.1 for three years!"
"It's got to be a lie... But Great Deeds! How could they be that easy to obtain!"
Voices of doubt, exclamations, and sharp intakes of breath rose and fell in succession.
Hair did not care about these voices.
He rely looked quietly at Eina.
"N-No! I have absolutely no intention of doubting Hair-sama!"
Noticing Hair's gaze, Eina abruptly snapped back to reality. Realizing her slip of the tongue just now, she hurriedly waved her hands to explain, her face flushing bright red.
Gods disdain lying.
And they would even less so stoop to lying about such matters.
Since this God ca personally, then this was absolutely an ironclad fact.
But... the significance of this matter was simply too heavy.
So heavy that Eina's professional composure almost failed to withstand it.
"Truly! Truly! I am extrely sorry! Hair-sama, I was just... too shocked..."
Eina took a deep breath, clutching her chest with one hand, trying hard to calm her wildly beating heart, attempting to recover the state of her usual professional advisor from that sense of dizziness.
"In short... if... if it's to update... adventurer lev..els..."
"I must register it imdiately..."
As Eina spoke, she frantically pulled open a drawer of the counter, wanting to rummage for a new level update application form.
As a result, because she was too panicked, her elbow suddenly knocked over the ink bottle next to her.
Smash!
The ink bottle crashed to the floor.
Blue-black ink flowed wantonly across the floorboards.
"Ah!"
Eina was startled, her whole person appearing even more at a loss for what to do.
She wanted to grab a cloth to wipe it up, but also wanted to grab the form first. As a result, her two hands fought each other, and she ended up knocking over even more things instead.
Quills, stamps, paper clips... scattered all over the floor with a clatter.
The commotion here was simply too great.
It even alerted the higher-ups working on the second floor.
A few Guild officials wearing high-class uniforms poked their heads out from the staircase, wanting to see exactly what had happened downstairs.
It seed highly unlikely they could conduct official business here.
Hair sighed.
"Miss Eina."
"I see it's quite inconvenient here."
"Could we find a quieter place?"
"After all."
"We still have many details to verify."
Hair took the initiative to speak, interrupting Eina, who was currently attempting to use sothing to wipe the ink off the floor.
"Ah... y-yes! Yes!"
After Eina snapped back to reality.
She glanced at the circles of onlookers who were practically about to swarm them. Their gazes were so fervent it seed they wanted to swallow Hair alive.
Indeed.
News of this magnitude, if announced publicly right here in the hall, would probably cause the entire Guild to explode in the next second.
"Then... please... Hair-sama, follow !"
"To the VIP reception room on the second floor!"
Thinking of this, Eina hurriedly tidied up her ssy hair.
Although a blush still lingered on her face, her eyes had gradually regained clarity. Truly unable to care about the ss on the floor, she hurriedly stepped out from behind the counter, and then called out to the human female staff mber with pink hair at another window.
"Misha! Please help clean this up! I'm begging you!"
That girl nad Misha had her mouth wide open, staring blankly in Hair's direction in a daze, still holding a stamp suspended in mid-air without bringing it down.
Hearing Eina's voice, she was abruptly jolted awake and reacted.
"Ah? Oh! Okay, okay!"
...
With this.
Under the watchful eyes of countless gazes mixed with shock, jealousy, awe, and curiosity.
Hair, bringing along Hestia who had finally reacted and caught up from behind, followed behind Eina—whose footsteps were still a bit unsteady—passed through the hall, and ascended the stairs leading to the second floor.
Passing through the channel ford by the crowd automatically giving way in the hall, they ascended the stairs leading to the second floor.
Hestia walked on the stairs, holding her head high and chest out.
She even deliberately slowed her pace, enjoying this mont of being the center of attention.
Her two black twin-tails swished back and forth with her steps.
Even though she wasn't the one who leveled up.
This matter had absolutely half a cent's worth of relation to her.
But this didn't stop her from enjoying this feeling of being highly anticipated at this mont, as if she were the protagonist who had created the miracle.
Even when passing by a few dumbfounded adventurers.
This girl deliberately aid her nostrils at them and let out a heavy snort.
"Hmph!"
So much so that Hair, walking in front, couldn't help but want to turn around and pinch her round little face.
Just as Hair was causing a massive uproar in the Guild over here.
On the other side of Orario.
In the comrcial district at the intersection of North Main Street and West Main Street.
This was also one of Orario's most bustling areas.
The streets were wide, lined with shops on both sides.
Weapon shops, armor shops, item shops, Magic Stone exchanges, taverns, restaurants... everything one could wish for.
All kinds of signs sparkled under the sunlight.
rchants and adventurers from all over the world gathered here. The sounds of haggling, the rolling of wagon wheels over flagstones, and the clanging of iron from distant workshops wove into a vibrant urban symphony.
The sunlight was perfect.
The breeze was gentle.
This was absolutely a rare mont of relaxation.
"Wow—! So many people!"
Then, an energetic exclamation rang out.
They saw.
Hanasaka Warabi riding on Kyoubou's back, holding a large at skewer just bought from a street stall in her hand. Her mouth was stuffed full, her cheeks bulging like a gluttonous squirrel.
Her bright large eyes continuously swept across the shops on both sides of the street, full of curiosity.
"Mmhmm!"
Hanasaka Warabi let out a cry of satisfaction.
"This at skewer tastes really good! Although it can't compare to what Mama Mia makes in that tavern, it has its own unique flavor!"
"Kyoubou! You have a bite too!"
Having said that.
Hanasaka Warabi held the half-eaten at skewer out in front of the giant bear head beneath her.
"Awoo~"
Kyoubou rolled the at skewer into her mouth, chewing with great relish, as she walked leisurely along the flagstone street with steady steps.
Aside from Hanasaka Warabi sitting there.
On Kyoubou's back.
The Little Bear was also lying on its stomach.
The little guy sprawled on its mother's spine, bobbing up and down with Kyoubou's steady steps.
Sleeping extrely soundly.
There was even a snot bubble blowing on the tip of its nose, expanding and shrinking with its breaths, looking comical yet adorable.
However.
This scene, which appeared exceptionally heartwarming to Hanasaka Warabi.
To the surrounding pedestrians.
Was exceptionally terrifying.
"Hey... is that..."
A human adventurer who was just about to cross the street suddenly halted his steps, pointing forward, his voice trembling.
"A bear?"
"Th-That's absolutely a bear, right?! And it's black! That huge?!"
"What a huge bear! If it stood up, it'd be five or six ters tall, wouldn't it?! One slap from that and a person would be turned into at paste!"
"Where did this monster co from?! Did the Dungeon's monsters co up?!"
"Where are the guards? Where are the Military Police? Where the hell did the people from the Ganesha Familia go?! Why is this kind of monster able to stroll down the street!"
After all.
In Orario.
Aside from specific festival celebrations like the Monsterphilia, beasts of this size were absolutely forbidden from freely walking on the streets.
Especially this kind of monster that looked like it could swallow a child in a single bite.
Who knew if it would suddenly go berserk?
The shop owners along the street also poked their heads out, tightly gripping self-defense weapons in their hands, staring nervously at this giant beast currently savoring street food.
Deeply afraid it would suddenly go mad and demolish their small businesses.
The crowd parted like waves being pushed aside, automatically opening up a comically wide path in terror.
Pedestrians pressed themselves against the walls, holding their breath, their eyes filled with horror as they watched this behemoth—which, even on all fours, was a large margin taller than an ordinary person—walk past them.
However.
What was even more bizarre was.
Even though the commotion here had caused quite a panic.
Around the street corner.
A squad of patrol mbers wearing the signature reddish-brown uniforms of the Ganesha Familia and wearing elephant god masks had been marching over in perfect unison.
They held spears in their hands, clearly elites responsible for maintaining order in this area.
But upon seeing this scene.
The footsteps of the squad captain leading them instantly halted.
According to rule number who-knows-what of Orario's 'Public Order Managent Regulations'.
Parading through the streets like this, and even causing a disturbance...
Normally speaking.
This absolutely classified as a Level 1 violation.
Whether through duty or reason, they had to do sothing about it.
Even if they didn't arrest them, they at least had to go up and question them, or order them to leave the busy downtown area.
This was where their duty lay.
But.
Right now.
That squad captain looked at that giant bear, and the Pallum who looked completely harmless riding on the bear, and his face beneath the mask twitched violently.
"Captain..."
A rookie mber behind him clearly hadn't grasped the situation yet. Seeing this obvious violation, he subconsciously wanted to step forward and fulfill his duty.
"We have a situation! Shouldn't we..."
"Shut up!"
Before that rookie could finish his sentence, the squad captain suddenly let out a low shout, directly cutting him off.
He even reached out a hand and forcefully grabbed the shoulder of that idiot who wanted to draw his sword. The grip was so strong it made the rookie grimace in pain.
"Don't move! Don't look! Don't speak!"
The squad captain gritted his teeth, squeezing these words out from between his teeth.
Are you kidding .
Shakti-sama had issued a strict order with Ganesha-sama's approval.
—"If you see the Hair Familia's mbers, as long as they aren't hurting anyone, pretend you didn't see anything."
This was soone before whom even their own Captain had to bow her head in front of that God.
If a few small fry like them went up to court disaster, wouldn't they be seeking death?
"But... Captain... the citizens..."
The rookie mber looked at the surrounding citizens casting pleading gazes, appearing sowhat hesitant.
"What citizens!"
"I think the public order on this street is quite good."
"Nothing happened at all."
"Let's go! Move to the next street for patrol!"
