Danmachi: The Magic Grandmaster Chapter 2: Are you from Tenkai?

"My na is Sion."

Sion pointed to himself and said, "Sion."

"Si... on."

Unlike teria's voice, although the language was different, he spoke fluently.

After all, this was not the first foreign language he had learned.

In addition, Sion was smart and had an excellent learning ability, he morized teria's na and pronunciation after hearing it only once.

But teria was different. Putting aside how much a delicate dieval lady could learn, her learning ability might not be that strong.

"That's right, it's Sion."

Hearing the girl's awkward pronunciation, Sion smiled and nodded in response.

Although the pronunciation was complex, it was also concise enough to extract Sion's na from a complete sentence.

teria was deeply surprised to encounter an unknown traveler like Sion during this special period.

Despite being unable to communicate, the atmosphere between the two was very pleasant.

"Speaking of which, are you the only one here?"

Sion glanced around and asked curiously.

He pointed around, then pointed to teria.

She was clever and soon understood what Sion ant.

"Yes, my sisters have gone to war. I don't have the talent of an adventurer, so I cannot help them. I can only pray here."

teria made a gesture, then clasped her hands together and made a prayerful motion toward the front of the church.

Perhaps it was the novelty of this way of communicating that made her burst out laughing.

"Pray for your Familia?"

Sion blinked and roughly understood what she ant.

'So, you dare to open the door for even when you are all alone?'

Sion suddenly felt a sense of worry.

It was not that Sion was worried about teria, he was worried about himself.

This girl looked very delicate, but he had to rember that this was another world.

Despite being physically weak, she dared to open the door for Sion all by herself, which ant she must possess so kind of ability to kill him.

Either she was a spoiled young lady who did not understand the wickedness of human nature.

Another possibility was that teria appeared gentle and kind on the surface, but was actually similar to Aria, that freaky from Aka ga Kill who specifically targeted people from the countryside.

Although it was rude to think that way, if he were not careful, it was perfectly normal to die at any ti in this unknown alien world.

'Fear ...'

Lacking strength and arriving in this unknown world alone, he truly felt uneasy.

Perhaps sensing this, teria took his hand, gave him a gentle smile, and said sothing as if to comfort him.

'You are so gentle to hold my hand and comfort like this?'

Although her hands were soft, the thought that those hands might pick up a scalpel and chop out his body made Sion's expression stiffen even more.

Since ancient tis, there has been an underground secret place known as the Dungeon in the lower world.

The secret place would breed monsters, which would erge on the surface and continue to kill.

The gods, taking pity on their people, sent down spirits known as the avatars of the gods to the lower world as the first of their kind to help humanity.

After the gods nurous interventions yielded disastrous results, they decided to no longer directly interfere with humanity.

The gods sealed their arcanum, descended to the lower world, and constructed a system that allows humanity to surpass its limits, the Falna.

Using divine blood as a catalyst, a container is created for humanity that has reached its limits, thereby accommodating more and stronger power.

This is the myth of the Familia.

The city is called Orario, known as the center of the world, built over the Dungeon.

The world's strongest adventurers, along with various humans, demi humans, elves, and fairies, live here.

teria is a mber of the Hera Familia, the strongest Familia in the world.

As a mber of the strongest Familia, she should be strong. Even if she looked weak, she should have the strength to uproot a willow tree.

Unfortunately, teria did not have the talent to beco an adventurer, and she also developed a rare skill that inflicted negative status effects after receiving her Falna.

It was like she was losing health every second, and the negative effects of the skill grew stronger over ti. Even magic items could not completely suppress the effects of these negative skills, resulting in her being extrely weak.

"Cough, cough..."

As teria was speaking, she suddenly coughed.

Seeing her weak appearance, Sion was at a loss.

"It's okay, I am used to it."

teria gave a gentle smile.

It was only then that Sion noticed the unhealthy pallor on her face.

This was what people commonly called a sickly young lady... She was clearly in a lot of pain, but she still tried to comfort him.

Thinking about this, Sion felt ashad of himself for misinterpreting teria.

"More importantly, can I know where you are from?"

teria made gestures with great interest, and it took Sion a long ti to understand the aning of the sentence.

'How should I answer this?'

Sion pondered for a mont, then pointed to the sky.

"Could you be from Tenkai?"
