Danmachi: Is It Wrong to Be the Main Character in Orario? Chapter 200: Finn Wants to See Me? (Bonus)

"Ouch!"

Covering her swollen cheek, Loki stumbled back into the room, looking completely disheveled.

"Riveria, wasn’t that punch just now a little too much?"

"You brought that on yourself."

Riveria didn’t show the slightest hint of regret. She didn’t think there was anything wrong with what she’d done.

Even if she was unwilling, she still had to comfort Cassandra, who had been frightened out of her wits by Loki’s antics.

"Cassandra, is it okay if I call you by your na?"

"O-Of course, that’s fine."

Right now, Cassandra was still reeling from Loki-sama’s behavior just monts ago. And seeing the "Nine Hell" knock Loki-sama flying with a single punch had shocked her to the core all over again.

She had been with the Apollo Familia for so long, but she had never once seen a Familia God get sent flying by a mber like that.

"Loki’s just like that—don’t take it too seriously."

Cassandra gave "Nine Hell" a strange look. She didn’t think it was sothing that could be brushed off. Just a mont ago, she had genuinely felt like her chastity was in danger.

Riveria sighed inwardly at the girl’s expression. This was exactly why she’d been watching Loki so closely, but in the end, Loki still couldn’t help showing her true nature.

"You’ll get used to it. She’s just a plain old pervert."

"It’s fine to teach her a lesson, but be careful not to hit her so hard she gets sent back to Tenkai."

Loki’s face darkened with frustration.

"Riveria, don’t you think that’s going a bit far?"

"Why are you saying that right to my face?"

Riveria was usually a bit more restrained, but her bluntness today left Loki feeling rather deflated.

"If you don’t want to say too much, then try acting serious for once when you’re updating status."

Riveria rolled her eyes without hesitation.

She had long since known Loki’s lewd tendencies, but couldn’t she rein it in just this once?

Wasn’t this supposed to be a ti to leave a good impression on the new mbers?

But Riveria was done talking. Back when Haruhi and Aisha had joined, this lecher had acted exactly the sa.

No matter how much she said, Loki never changed.

So Riveria got straight to the point.

"Is Cassandra’s Status updated? Does her secret lie in her Magic or Skills?"

"Mm... this child’s uniqueness definitely shows up in her Skills."

Loki dropped the teasing and shifted to a serious tone.

"The descriptions of her Skills can’t be interpreted. We can only guess at the na, but we can’t translate the full details."

"That kid really has an eye for people. He even managed to dig up all that detailed intel—even confird her unbelievable power."

"Talent and insight like that aren’t easy to co by. No wonder he was able to sell that kind of information."

This indecipherable Skill was Cassandra’s biggest secret—and for the Loki Familia, a strategic asset.

"Cassandra, do you often see visions of the future?"

"Eh?"

The question left Cassandra stunned. She looked carefully at Loki-sama and "Nine Hell," both of whom clearly already knew sothing—as if they’d learned her secret through other ans.

"Loki-sama, you... believe ?"

"Of course. I am a god, after all."

Loki puffed out her chest proudly. Discerning the truth in a child’s words was a basic divine trait.

But the truth was, Loki felt most insecure when she was acting confident.

’If gods could truly sense the truth in this child’s words, Apollo would’ve noticed it too.’

Loki was sure—if Cassandra had responded to divine power, Apollo never would’ve let her go so easily.

But Apollo hadn’t even hesitated, which ant that divine perception didn’t work on Cassandra.

"Loki-sama..."

Cassandra’s eyes shimred with surprise and joy. She had never expected Loki-sama to believe she could really see glimpses of the future.

What had hurt her the most in the past was knowing things that no one else did.

She had tried so hard to tell others about the future she saw and had struggled to change it with her own hands, but in the end, all she received was distrust and ridicule.

Now, finally, soone believed her.

Riveria stood beside her, pressing a hand to her forehead, speechless. A mont later, she stepped forward and pushed Loki’s face aside.

"Cassandra, don’t take those words too seriously."

"We only believed what you said because soone else told us about your ability."

"He’s the one who discovered that you can see the future."

"I see..."

It was a little disappointing to learn that it wasn’t Loki-sama who believed in her, but Cassandra wasn’t too upset. At least soone believed in her ability to see the future—and that alone brought her a bit of joy.

Even if it wasn’t Loki-sama, there was still soone who believed her words.

Now, she really wanted to know who that person was.

Unable to contain her curiosity, Cassandra asked,

"Riveria-sama, who told you about my ability?"

Riveria glanced at Loki, who flinched a little but nodded in acknowledgnt.

"The one who knows about your ability is a mber of the Hestia Familia."

"He’s soone closely connected to our Loki Familia now."

"Bell Cranel."

Bell Cranel...

Cassandra repeated the na silently in her heart, as if trying to carve it into her mory.

She wanted to et him soday.

At least soone believed her. Not everyone thought she was just spouting nonsense.

...

Just then, a knock sounded at the door.

Before anyone inside could respond, a voice ca from outside.

"Loki-sama, Captain Finn wants to see you."

"Hm? Finn’s looking for ?"

Loki blinked, thought for a mont, then decided to put the two cute girls in the room aside for now and stepped out the door.

"Daphne, I’ll update your Status tomorrow."
