Now reading: Chapter 26: Loki and Freya (1/2) from Playing Genshin Impact in DanMachi, a Action novel by Veltoria.

As soone who had once been a hardcore multi-account Guild Leader who never missed a single login streak, Aether (Renjiro) had long been trained in the art of no-lifting.

For him, if sothing piqued his interest, he could keep at it endlessly, even when it was a repetitive, chanical grind that would bore most people.

Now, Dungeon Exploration was exactly the kind of thing he loved most.

To a modern man like him, it was practically the sa as playing a VRMMORPG.

Both the novelty and the thrill were top-tier enjoynt.

"n remain boys until death."

Aether knew well that being an adventurer was a high-risk occupation.

But precisely because of that danger, this new life was sothing he had never imagined, or touched, back in his old world.

And with the aid of the Genshin System, plus the stamina-ignoring state of Starfire's Flowing Light, he could fight day and night without rest.

For him, hunting monsters for days on end had beco as natural as eating or drinking.

During this ti…

"Tell , where exactly did you find such terrifying rookie monsters?"

On the first night of Aether's second foray into the Dungeon, the two most powerful deities in Orario secretly t.

In truth, although the Loki Familia and the Freya Familia were rivals on the surface, Loki, Freya, and Hephaestus, the goddess of Orario's top smithing Familia, had long been close friends.

They'd once led their Familias to fight side by side.

How close were they?

Loki, the flat-chested Kansai-accented trickster, casually called Freya a "slutty goddess."

She nicknad Hephaestus "Fei-Fei-tan," even sotis acting cutesy around her.

As for Freya, though her Familia practically allowed her to run wild in Orario, she once snuck out alone to play, accidentally caused a huge ss, and tried to bluff her way through it… only for Loki to flick her forehead in public.

Even then, Otta and the others who witnessed it didn't complain.

Hephaestus, the gentle-hearted one, was considered harmless by both.

And since her smithing Familia was the backbone of Orario's logistics, both top factions kept close ties with her out of necessity.

Especially the Loki Familia, despite their grand Twilight Manor, their large numbers, and even seven Level 6 adventurers, they often fell into financial deficits from their frequent Dungeon expeditions.

In such tis, both Freya and Hephaestus would secretly send financial aid to keep them going deeper.

Tonight, however,

"Fought for seven days and seven nights without rest, triggering continuous Monster Feasts, and leveled up to Lv.2 from that single feat?"

In a luxurious tavern suite in the 5th District, close to the Freya Familia's base, Folkvangr, Loki squinted at the silver-haired beauty cloaked in a wide hood, asking curiously:

"Are you sure this is sothing a normal human could do?"

"If I'm not mistaken, even Silence and the ancient heroes of old didn't start out this terrifying, did they?"

That night, the Guild finally chose to compromise.

Because Allen from the Chariot of the Goddess delegation had been too firm, refusing to concede, the Guild decided: If we can't prevent future disasters, better to control the announcent ourselves.

So, they publicly revealed the details of how "Aether and Lumine" reached Lv.2.

This way, the Guild could at least stress the dangerous nature of this feat.

If people still tried to follow suit, well, the Guild could only wash its hands of responsibility.

Judging by Loki's reaction, though, any adventurer with a working brain wouldn't dare try.

At this mont,

"They're human, yes."

"But… mm, let's just say they're exceptionally talented."

Freya's lips curved in a pleased smile, like a proud mother speaking of her children.

"Just a few days ago, I personally gave them my blessing on top of Babel Tower. So yes, this one-week record is absolutely real."

"...Tsk. Tis like these, I really envy your eyes."

Loki clicked her tongue.

Freya's divine beauty allowed her to see straight into the very essence of a mortal's soul, even without divine power.

rely standing still, her gaze alone carried a passive charm.

With a thought, that charm skyrocketed.

If unleashed recklessly, she could enthrall the entire Lower World.

That was why she wore the hood, not just to hide her identity, but to suppress that permanent passive skill.

The last ti she skipped that precaution, she almost caused a riot on the streets, and got a forehead flick from Loki for it.

Back to the present,

"At this rate, your Familia may soon gain two more Silence-class adventurers."

For once, Loki's always-squinting eyes opened slightly, revealing cunning red pupils.

"You think they might even have what it takes to slay the One-Eyed Black Dragon?"

"…They should."

Freya didn't ntion that her encounter with Aether had been pure coincidence, bordering on farcical.

No need to reveal secrets unnecessarily.

As for Loki's question,

"In my view, based on their performance so far, they hold greater potential than any adventurer alive."

Her praise was sincere.

After all, who could see the BUG-like powers of Paimon Ti, Genshin Descent, and Starfire's Flowing Light without thinking the sa?

Loki's interest deepened, her smile sly.

"Oh? Greater than any adventurer?"

With a childish huff, she crossed her arms, her Kansai accent thick as she muttered:

"So things you can only prove by competing. I don't believe your rookies will surpass my Ais-tan. Especially when it cos to slaying the One-Eyed Black Dragon."

"Is that so?"

Normally, Freya would've just laughed such words off.

She suspected Loki's confidence ca from insider knowledge about The Sword Princess.

But she didn't care.

So things simply weren't worth arguing over.

================

Note: Hephaestus nickna "Fei-Fei-tan" cos from "phae" turns to "Fei" and "-tan" is a childish form of "-chan,".
