"Ais, am I dreaming? I can't feel any pain even when I pinch my face," Riveria murmured.
Ais: "Because you're pinching my face, Riveria, it hurts..."
[King] Ottar tried to speak several tis but hesitated, and finally, [Goddess' Chariot] Allen said, "Those two elves, are they from your familia?"
Finn: "Ah, yes, probably..."
The first-class adventurers saw six people in total:
Aisha, lying unconscious on the ground, which was the most normal.
Another lying unconscious was a bloodied young boy.
The fox girl in a kimono, Haruhi, knelt respectfully on the floor, letting the boy rest on her lap.
The ragged young elf girl, Lefiya, sat beside the boy, earnestly massaging his legs.
If the above scenes were already unusual, the actions of the other two elf girls were even more perplexing—
Alicia and Ryuu were taking turns kissing the unconscious boy.
Before entering, the adventurers thought, 'We've seen it all, what scene haven't we witnessed?'
Now, they could only say, 'This scene, we truly haven't seen!'
"Sss..."
It seed soone gasped, their impression of the elf race subtly changing.
"That elf, isn't she [Gale]?"
The only one still thinking rationally, Finn, gazed at Ryuu, pondering, just as Alicia finally looked up.
"Eh, Lady Riveria, since when?"
Riveria took a deep breath, her tone icy, "...Alicia, I think you should explain your actions."
The princess had been worrying for her people, only to find upon eting that you and another elf girl were forcibly kissing an unconscious boy, '(elf expletives) how has the elf race co to this?'
"I, I, I was just saving him, definitely not taking the chance to kiss Shirou."
Alicia blurted out in panic, "Ryuu, isn't that right?"
"...I'm not Ryuu, there's no elf here by that na.", The green-haired elf girl spoke in a lifeless voice.
Realizing her actions had been witnessed by Lady Riveria, Ryuu chose to escape reality and stubbornly deny, "Who's Ryuu? Never heard of such a person, my na is Alicia, because only Alicia would do such a foolish thing..."
"No, you are [Gale] Ryuu Lion, and Alicia has already passed away."
The first-class adventurers internally sighed.
At that mont, Ais suddenly beca greatly agitated.
"Ais, what's wrong?", Noticing the girl's abnormality, Finn asked.
"No, it's nothing...", Ais said expressionlessly, but inside, a storm was raging.
The girl then realized, 'Isn't this my (self-proclaid) master?'
'Master, what is your relationship with my gentle sister Alicia, the forr rival [Gale] Ryuu Lion, and the lovely junior Lefiya?'
'Wait, sister Alicia is also a swordsman, are you trying to steal master's swordsmanship this way, sister Alicia, how despicable!'
'As the master's first disciple (self-proclaid), I will never allow this!'
'Eh? Wait, what if master wakes up now and recognizes in front of Riveria, wouldn't that be...'
Finn: "Ais, are you really okay? You're shaking badly."
The cat-person Allen then spoke, "What a ss, I don't understand any of it, but as long as they're alive, our mission is accomplished, let's go, boaz[2], leave the troubleso stuff to the nosy folks of the Loki familia."
"...Hmm."
[Goddess' Chariot] left without looking back, [King] hesitated for a mont, then turned to leave, pondering how to recount this event to the "client" who had sent him to the dungeon to save people.
Finn glanced at Ryuu, and combining recent information about [Gale], he imdiately had a guess, "So, it was 'Hostess of Fertility's' owner Mia who commissioned them to save people..."
[Gale] Ryuu Lion is currently residing at the "Hostess of Fertility" tavern, and the dwarf owner of that tavern has deep connections with the Freya familia, which is an open secret among the major familias in Orario.
The reason the Freya familia ca here is clear, and the Ishtar familia was probably here to rescue [Beauty Elite] Aisha, but what about the fox girl, is she a mber of the Ishtar familia or just a passerby caught up in this?
'Alicia alone might not be a match for Goliath, but with [Gale] and [Beauty Elite], defeating Goliath shouldn't be difficult, so how did it end up in such a miserable state, and what about the monster corpses at the entrance of the large room?', After the initial shock subsided, Finn began to think.
There were no remains of the black Goliath at the scene; after a monster's magic stone is extracted or shattered, the monster's body gradually turns to ash and disappears, only the drops might remain, the lack of information hindered Finn's thoughts.
On the other hand, after the outsiders from other familias left, Riveria suddenly collapsed, "Why, why have the noble elves beco criminals who prey on children."
Alicia's panicked explanations only made things more confusing, Ryuu despaired and escaped reality, Ais was terrified of the future, Riveria was heartbroken by her people's behaviour.
The scene was instantly chaotic.
Bete: "What a crazy bunch of won, and they're from the sa familia as , this is embarrassing."
Finn: "Ahem, anyway, let's head back to the surface..."
———
[Loki Familia Headquarters, Twilight Manor, Library]
"So, that's how it was..."
Riveria's mood was complex, her erald hair wrapped around her fingers again and again, her right foot in white sandals tapping lightly on the floor.
Monster offering, baby dragon, labyrinth earthquake, abnormal events, black Goliath...
After sending Emiya and the other injured to the hospital, Alicia, who had returned to the Loki familia, was pulled by Riveria into the library, which served as her office, for a private conversation. After so ti to calm down, Alicia finally regained her rationality and revealed everything that had happened in the dungeon.
"Emiya Shirou...", Riveria softly spoke the boy's na, it wasn't the first ti she had heard of him; not long ago, she had learned about this child from Raul and Lefiya, and had discussed him with Finn.
"A super genius not inferior to Ais.", that was how Riveria and Finn had judged the boy's potential at the ti, but now it seems their thoughts were too conservative.
Powerful and versatile, a nearly omnipotent projection magic; archery skills that even the elf archer Alicia couldn't match; sword techniques not inferior to [The Sword Princess], surpassing mortal limits; the super attack power to slay a baby dragon across levels...
All of the above was already shocking enough, but what left Riveria even more incredulous was the boy's super-domain enhancent ability displayed in the battle against the black Goliath.
With the body of a Lv.1, he alone slew over a hundred monsters with potential abilities of Lv.2, such a feat could no longer be described with the word "genius."
Normally, a Lv.1 adventurer only needs to single-handedly defeat a Lv.2 Minotaur or Tiger Claw to achieve enough feats for a level up, as for defeating more than two Lv.2 monsters at once, that's completely impossible, and would only be considered a joke if spoken of.
To cross levels and fight over a hundred monsters alone, if it weren't for believing that Alicia would never lie to her, Riveria would never believe such a fairy tale.
Moreover, there was one thing Riveria couldn't accept in her heart, the ritual through which the boy gained his enhancent.
"Alicia, are you really sure that the child gained strength through... that...", The elf princess's tone was full of sha, her beautiful face covered with a layer of blush.
"Yes, yes.", Alicia's face was even redder than Riveria's, like a ripe crystal apple, so delicate it seed juice could be squeezed out.
mories clearly surged up, just recalling that mont made Alicia feel as if electricity was running through her body.
Originally, it was just an impulsive act to ensure everyone's survival by kissing the boy, but now looking back, wasn't that completely voluntary?
And the child even responded, his power surged again after that kiss.
'How does Shirou view ? I originally wanted to be the child's "sister."', Alicia's thoughts beca increasingly chaotic, 'Lady Riveria, what should I do...'
After the battle, the more Alicia recalled the events, the more she felt sothing was wrong with her.
"My speculation is... Shirou-kun... can enhance his abilities by kissing... 'elves'...", Alicia whispered, while internally lanting, 'Ah! I'm actually saying such things in front of Lady Riveria, truly, truly unforgivable!'
Feeling deeply that she had sinned the noble princess's devout elf girl now only wished to imdiately commit suicide and bury herself in a hole.
"Ahem...", Riveria coughed to cover her sha, "You, are you sure, why is it by kis-kis-kiss... elves..."
The princess was too ashad to say the word.
'Shy Lady Riveria is too beautiful.', Alicia once again felt that electric-like tingling sensation, 'No, no, thinking like this is disrespectful!'
Because Alicia has a strong racial sentint towards the elf identity, or perhaps she has a hidden racist tendency. Alicia subconsciously believes that elves are the superior race, so she naturally assus that the boy's skill is related to elves.
"At that ti, there were also fox people and Amazons present, but Shirou-kun seed uninterested in them...", Alicia reasoned thus.
Alicia quietly explained, she secretly observed Lady Riveria's face, now red beyond recognition, and for so reason, a strange feeling grew in her heart.
She continued, "Perhaps, other intimate actions besides kissing could also work?"
Riveria couldn't help but cover her face.
Although nearly a hundred years old, under the protection and care of the female elves, the princess had never been exposed to anything related to love.
Although Riveria knows the relevant knowledge, it's all from textbooks, it's the first ti she's personally heard a subject speak of such shaless things by her side.
Moreover, such a skill targeting elves inevitably made Riveria embarrassed.
After all, the most famous elf group in Orario is the magic unit led by Riveria of the Loki familia, and in the labyrinth city— in the world, the one who most represents the elf race is Riveria herself.
Hearing Alicia's description, Riveria felt as if the boy possessed a skill like [Elf Slayer].
Now [Pristine Garden] and [Gale] have fallen into his clutches, 'could it be that in the future, I, [Nine Hell], would also beco his target?'
Riveria's face stead.
Because of Alicia's unreliable speculation, Riveria was completely led astray.
'No, don't.', Alicia internally despaired, 'Lady Riveria, please don't show such an expression in front of !'
Alicia believed that Shirou must have a strong desire for the elf race, even to the extent of awakening a skill for it.
Then, as [The Elf Slayer], wouldn't the boy possibly target Lady Riveria, the great Lady Riveria.
If the boy dared to ignore Lady Riveria's charm, Alicia would never forgive him... Sss, no, that sounds like encouraging him to pursue Lady Riveria...
Due to prolonged blushing, the elf girl's brain was sowhat chaotic, strange images began to form in her mind, 'No, I can't imagine such scenes, this is... disrespectful...'
Alicia tried to suppress the growing delusions.
Sothing strange was awakening inside, the loyalty to Lady Riveria seed to be changing...
"Ahem, Alicia, for now, let's keep the child's information confidential, and don't spread what happened that day."
"Yes, yes."
The elf princess and her loyal subject tacitly ended the conversation.
.
.
.
"Lord Loki, please help update my abilities."
After leaving Lady Riveria's library, Alicia took a deep breath, cald her emotions, and sought out the god Loki.
