The group dined together until evening, and after everyone had bathed, Hestia, for the first ti in a while, updated everyone's status.
It's worth noting that after Bell woke up, Hestia had already updated his status while the others were preparing for the War Ga. Perhaps because the Minotaur was an unconquerable foe for him, after that adventure, Bell also reached LV2, imdiately leaving more than half of the Familia mbers behind.
"Everyone, after you've bathed, co to my room one by one!"
Amidst what sounded like an awful declaration, Hestia led the other girls of the Familia into the won's bathhouse.
"Let's go, Bell. Even though it's just the two of us n in the Familia, the size of the bathhouse hasn't shrunk."
"Okay, Takatsuki."
After washing his body, he imrsed himself in the bath. Takatsuki looked at Bell, who also looked comfortable from the hot water, and asked, "Bell, how is Haruhi doing?"
"Huh?" Bell was startled and said sowhat shyly, "Well, still the sa, I guess."
"Have you two made no progress?"
"Progress? I often go to chat with her, and Haruhi is very happy. That's how it is."
Looking at Bell's flushed face, Takatsuki wasn't sure if it was due to the water temperature in the bathhouse or shyness.
"Then do you want to borrow so money? To redeem Haruhi?"
Although he said that, Takatsuki knew that even with money, Haruhi couldn't be redeed. She was one of the Ishtar Familia's trump cards. Although he didn't know if their head god had a problem, forcing everyone in the Familia to be prostitutes, regardless of their value or wishes, he knew that Bell could only forcibly take Haruhi out.
"No need, Takatsuki. The money I earn now can cover Haruhi's ti every day. I will slowly earn money and redeem her."
"So, does that count as you having a mistress outside?"
After a single sentence rendered Bell speechless and after they finished bathing, Takatsuki and Bell left the bathhouse together.
While sitting on the living room sofa waiting for others to update their statuses, Hestia's shriek once again echoed throughout the Hearth Manor.
"A LV5 has appeared!!!!!"
LV5, an average adventurer would need several years to reach this level. Reaching LV5 ant becoming a top-tier adventurer and joining the upper echelon of Orario.
Even the Loki Familia and Freya Familia, the two largest Familias, relied on LV5 as their main force.
And continuous advancent was sothing that hadn't happened in thousands of years, with Takatsuki being the first to break the precedent.
And this precedent was broken again in just a few days, and by the sa group of people.
"Class Monitor! You're too amazing! How did you do it?"
"Class Monitor has left us behind in an instant."
"Bronya thinks it should be because the Class Monitor's injuries have healed, so her recovered strength was calculated into the Falna."
By the ti Takatsuki and Bell arrived, the three girls were already looking at Fu Hua's updated Falna results.
"Although no magic was manifested, a new skill appeared, and the last skill can now be used."
Hestia was also dizzy from the sudden good news, and only summarized it after Takatsuki arrived.
"Edge of Taixuan? It can be used!?"
Takatsuki looked at Fu Hua, who was standing quietly nearby, and asked with so surprise.
"Yes, actually, after the treatnt was completed, I had a faint feeling. After just leveling up, I suddenly had a feeling of enlightennt."
Hearing Fu Hua's words, Hestia said sowhat proudly: "Of course! When you leveled up, I saw that you had the potential to refine and optimize it, so I unearthed it. How do you feel?"
"It's very good. The current Edge of Taixuan no longer requires Honkai Energy to be activated, but the drawback is that if there isn't enough energy around, it might need to draw upon external objects to provide energy. I'll teach you the improved Edge of Taixuan later."
Fu Hua nodded and then said to the others.
A golden Hamon suddenly appeared, and a magic stone fell from mid-air into Takatsuki's hand.
"Try if magic stones work. If they do, we'll just collect more magic stones later."
Taking the magic stone from Takatsuki's hand, under everyone's gaze, the magic stone shattered like a monster from the Dungeon, turning into dust and disappearing, while a burning fla ignited in Fu Hua's other hand.
"Class Monitor!? You don't have magic, do you? How did you do this?"
Kiana asked, looking at the fla in Fu Hua's hand in astonishnt.
"This isn't magic, but rather internal energy transford from Edge of Taixuan. You'll be able to do it too once you reach that realm."
Shaking her hand to dispel the flas, Fu Hua looked intently in Takatsuki's direction. Takatsuki was currently holding a piece of paper he'd gotten from i, looking at Fu Hua's updated abilities. Besides the unsealing of Edge of Taixuan, there was also a new skill:
[Ten Thousand Years of Persistence]
-Conviction and Persistence
-The stronger the persistence, the greater the ability displayed
These two introductions were very brief, but as is widely known, the simpler the introduction, the more overpowered the effect.
Takatsuki looked up just in ti to see Fu Hua staring at him.
Before he could ask anything, Hestia ushered them out of the room. Hearing the uncontrollable laughter from inside through the door, the group exchanged glances, not knowing what to say, and simply returned to their respective rooms.
However, later that evening, Takatsuki quietly arrived at Fu Hua's room door and gently knocked twice.
"The door isn't locked."
A clear, cool voice ca from inside the room.
Upon pushing the door open, the room wasn't dark as Takatsuki had imagined. Fu Hua was sitting on the bed, wearing a pristine white shirt, her neatly managed long hair tied up and resting on her right shoulder. In her hands, she held an open book.
"Is sothing the matter?"
Hearing Fu Hua's question, Takatsuki's throat bobbed before he spoke, "Fu Hua, have you rembered your past mories?"
"Yes."
Hearing Fu Hua's answer, Takatsuki confird his thoughts. He rembered that when the Herrscher of Sentience appeared, it was Ottar who had completely healed Fu Hua's injuries and restored all her mories.
Initially, Takatsuki thought the Herrscher of Sentience regained all mories because she herself was the Herrscher of Sentience, but now it seed Fu Hua's injuries were the biggest reason.
"Then the questions you suddenly asked this afternoon, was it because you had seen before?"
Takatsuki's words made Fu Hua's gaze turn strange.
"Have you ever lost your mory?"
Fu Hua's words made Takatsuki roll his eyes, "How could that be? My mory is perfectly intact. Just say what you want to say, aren't we companions?"
Takatsuki pulled a chair in the room and sat by the bed, looking at Fu Hua. He already had so faint guesses, but he needed Fu Hua to confirm them before he could be certain of his thoughts.
"Ha…"
Placing the book on the bedside table, Fu Hua looked at Takatsuki, "I don't know how to explain it, but I did see you, fifty thousand years ago."
