Chapter 457

Chapter 464: Your Wife Had a Baby!?

Returning from Melon to Orario didn’t take much time. A 3,000-meter journey, even at a leisurely stroll, took just over fifteen minutes. The partners unseen for days shared their experiences along the way, quickly passing the time.

After inspection, they entered the gates of Orario. Gress and Loki led the two captured deities to the Guild Headquarters to complete the necessary procedures. Finn and Riviria returned with the group to Twilight Manor.

The quiet base camp resumed its usual bustling atmosphere after several peaceful days.

“Riviria, keep an eye on everyone so they don’t get too rowdy. I need to prepare the report for this incident.”

“Do you need help?”

“No, it’s just organizing what happened this time. Most of it has already been explained by Loki, it won’t take long. You can rest first.”

Since it wasn’t anything troublesome, Finn went straight to his office upon arriving home, intending to finish the follow-up work early.

Riviria shrugged and followed the girls into the mansion. After returning home, the first thing was naturally to relax in their rooms.

The large bathhouse in Twilight Manor would undoubtedly be quite lively, which was predictable.

The male members also formed small groups and dispersed. Unlike the physically and mentally exhausted girls who had been through a series of events in Melon, the boys’ day had just begun.

Although they hadn’t slept all night, for these high-level adventurers, staying up was child’s play. The members were now discussing where to go next for fun.

During this time, Raul did invite Izay, but he declined. He preferred to stay in Twilight Manor rather than going out to pass the time.

Loki and Gress just went to the Guild Headquarters to deliver the captives and would return soon. After Loki came back, Izay planned to update his ability values this time.

Considering this, he rejected Raul’s invitation.

“You’ve improved again during this time, haven’t you!?”

Arriving at Twilight Manor together, a wolfman calmly asked after overhearing Izay’s conversation with Raul. However, his wagging tail betrayed his inner turmoil.

“Not really, just a little bit~”

Izay saw through it but didn’t say anything, giving Bert a standard modest gesture.

The werewolf stared at the gap between the index finger and thumb, his eyes twitching slightly.

Who would believe his “just a little”?

His total ability value must have increased by hundreds or even thousands!

Is exercising really that easy for him?

Can someone with the unique ‘Rare Skill’ just do as they please like that!?

Bert let out a long sigh, feeling his blood pressure rise.

“You didn’t spend the whole week at the ‘frontline’, did you?”

“The frontline” refers to the ultra-deep layers in the dungeon.

“More or less. After all, it’s ‘training’. One must work hard.”

“Hmph! I’m leaving! See you tonight!”

In response to this guess, Izay vaguely nodded. Not long after his reply, Bert lost the mood to continue chatting with him.

Or maybe he was stimulated and didn’t want to fall too far behind, so the wolfman directly walked towards the gate of Twilight Manor.

Judging by his actions, he was preparing to train more in the dungeon.

Seeing this, Izay sighed slightly.

In terms of progress in strength.

Although he had created the {Experience Ornament} to give his companions an experience buff, without a real cheat skill, it was inevitable that his ability values would gradually surpass everyone else’s.

He could only hope Bert would be more open-minded.

Among the executives of the Loki Familia, the three major figures didn’t care about such things. Even if they worried, they would be happy to see the growth of their juniors since they are family.

Tiona and Tione both have optimistic personalities regarding strength.

For the former, having enough strength to help Finn is sufficient. The latter doesn’t need worrying at all.

With Izay’s intervention, Ais wouldn’t obsess over this aspect either.

The only one to worry about is Bert.

This werewolf is the type who will push himself too hard if no one is watching.

Maybe he’ll ease up after falling in love in the future?

(I can’t help everyone much with basic ability accumulation… But when it comes to acquiring ‘Great Deeds’ experience points, I can definitely find them something.)

Izay had an idea.

You see, in the End World, there are still sixteen powerful monsters like the First Beast.

The seventeen beasts refer to seventeen types of “beasts.”

According to the information Izay learned from the Earth God Black Candle, apart from the First Beast, which has no derived species, the other sixteen types of “beasts” have developed species.

However, within each species of “beast,” there is only one individual that was born first.

That individual is the embodiment of a “beast,” the core.

Destroying that first-born individual will cause the entire species of that kind of “beast” to disappear.

Naturally, the first-born “beasts” are not weak.

If divided by the Ability Value System, they are roughly between Lv.7 to Lv.9.

Such monsters, as long as Ais and the others are brought over, Loki is taken along to maintain the ability values, and any one of them is defeated, wouldn’t the “Great Deed” experience points skyrocket!?

The teachers’ leveling up wouldn’t be a problem at all~

“I need to find an opportunity to talk to Loki about this.” Izay mumbled softly while stroking his chin.

“What do you want to tell me?”

Suddenly, Loki’s distinctive voice came from the side.

Izay was still sitting on the bench in the front courtyard of Twilight Manor, his position very obvious, visible as soon as one steps into the manor.

Upon returning home with Gress after delivering the captives to the Guild, Loki immediately noticed Izay sitting on the bench deep in thought and approached out of curiosity.

“Cough, Loki, you’re back? Is everything settled at the Guild?”

“Yeah, that damn dwarf wouldn’t talk till the end. I just threw her to the Guild and don’t want to bother anymore!”

With a wave of her hand, Loki’s words and actions were full of resentment towards Kali.

Then she turned around: “By the way, you said you had something to tell me earlier?”

“It’s about some confidential matters… Anyway, it’s a ‘big deal’!”

Big deal!?

What kind of big deal!?

Did your wife have a baby!? Will you stop clinging to my Ais carbon after this!?

Hearing Izay’s words, Loki’s curiosity was successfully piqued.

“If it’s a ‘big deal,’ then let’s! Go to the Divine Room to talk! Gress, you don’t have to follow us!”

“I wasn’t planning to follow anyway!”

Looking at Loki dragging Izay towards the mansion gate, Gress angrily shot her a line.
