The three Xenos exchanged glances. None of them had ever t Loki-sama, but they could all sense she didn’t seem very reliable.
Ray hesitated a little, then couldn’t help but ask, "Are all Familia Gods on the surface like that?"
"Absolutely not!"
Finn imdiately straightened up. He had to clear up this misunderstanding quickly—otherwise, it would cause no end of problems later.
"Gods on the surface are very reliable. Take Goddess Hestia of the Hestia Familia, for example—that’s Bell-kun’s goddess. Just look at him."
Ray glanced over at Bell, and her impression of surface gods softened a little.
After all, it took a reliable god to raise soone who wouldn’t attack Xenos like them. That alone made Ray feel such gods weren’t so bad—otherwise, they couldn’t have raised an adventurer like Bell.
"Besides Goddess Hestia, Goddess Hephaestus is also incredibly dependable."
Seeing Ray’s opinion start to shift, Finn let out a small sigh of relief and quickly tried to add another na to the list of reliable gods.
But then Ray gave Finn a strange look and said flatly, "So by your logic... doesn’t that just an your Familia God is the only unreliable one?"
"Uh..."
The three Level 6 adventurers fell completely silent.
They were powerful and highly gifted, but right now, none of that helped.
After all, this really wasn’t sothing they could fix.
What could they do if their Familia God wasn’t reliable?
Even with all their confidence, they couldn’t bring themselves to claim Loki was dependable—not with so many eyes on them.
If they actually said that, Finn was certain Bell would laugh at them all the way back to the surface.
Hestia-sama and Hephaestus-sama, who had been watching the expedition from Hestia Familia’s side, would probably be rolling with laughter too.
Seriously!?
Ray looked at the three of them, saw they didn’t even try to deny it, and instantly understood—Loki, the Familia God of the Loki Familia, was an unreliable weirdo!
...
"Ahhhhhhh!"
Loki completely lost it. She jumped off the sofa, letting out a scream so shrill it made people’s skin crawl.
Hestia and Hephaestus, who were working nearby, had already been bracing for this.
They both broke into laughter the mont they saw Finn and the others’ reactions.
Honestly, you couldn’t bla them. The whole situation was just too funny.
Faced with Bell’s comnt—"That pervy Loki would never send soone she likes into the abyss"—Finn and the others had snapped out of their overthinking and quickly agreed it was true.
Which said it all.
The three pillars of the Loki Familia were fully aware that Loki was just a shaless old pervert.
Sure, she might have a lot on her mind, but there was no way she’d abandon her lust for any other reason.
They even believed that Loki’s entire personality was driven by lust.
This kind of reputation was truly devastating for Loki. Her eyes were bloodshot as she glared at the three people on the screen.
"Humph... hahaha...!"
Loki let out a bizarre laugh, and behind her, a dark, corrupted-looking aura began to spread like sothing out of a horror scene.
"Riveria, since you called a pervert, then once you’re back, if I don’t thoroughly grope you, I’d be doing your judgnt a disservice."
"What about the other two?"
Loki’s eerie laugh ca to an abrupt halt. She turned toward Hestia, who’d asked the question, with the broken stare of a possessed doll.
"I’m only interested in cute girls!
"One’s a shota, the other’s a middle-aged man—how could either of those two non-girls be my type?"
After her outburst, Loki kept staring at the three people on the screen with that lifeless, chanical gaze.
"Ah... the expedition’s almost over. Let see you already."
"Ah... the expedition’s almost over. Let see you already."
It was a line Loki should’ve said while hanging around in Hestia Familia’s ho base. Yet now, it echoed loudly through the room.
Everything Loki had just shouted was heard clearly by the four Level 6 adventurers and the three Xenos present.
The three Xenos’ expressions grew increasingly odd. anwhile, the three pillars of the Loki Familia only wished they could bury their heads in the ground.
At this point, they honestly couldn’t show their faces anymore.
This ti, they truly would’ve preferred if Loki had kicked them into the abyss.
At least that would’ve been a divine test. But this? Their Familia God just hit a whole new level of social death—and they had to hear all of it.
’Bell-kun, you’re too cruel!’
Finn’s embarrassnt was so bad it felt like his teeth were aching.
Not even when facing Orario’s strongest adventurer, Ottar, did he feel this humiliated. Right now, he genuinely wanted to disappear.
Only Bell could pull off sothing like this.
But what could he do?
It wasn’t Bell who said those things. It was their own Familia God.
"Yeah... that does sound like sothing Loki would say."
Ais, who had been absentminded until now, suddenly spoke up.
In that mont, Finn and the others wished even harder they could disappear.
They didn’t know if Loki had socially self-destructed just now, but as mbers of her Familia, they definitely felt the sha.
That their Familia God was recognized as a pervert by a Xenos they just t—there was no getting used to that, no matter how many tis it happened.
Finn couldn’t stand lingering in the awkwardness anymore. Knowing they had to keep moving forward, he braced himself, ignoring the strange looks and forced himself to speak.
"Ray, this isn’t the best place to talk. Let’s discuss it later."
"Yeah... I think so too."
Ray didn’t object, but the way she looked at Finn now had a strange sympathy and pity in it.
There was nothing Finn could say to that look. All he could do was stiffly force a smile, but only the gods knew how fake it was.
"We Xenos really shouldn’t stay long on a Safe Zone Floor, but it won’t be easy to reach you next ti."
"That’s fine."
Bell cut in, pulling a special amulet out of his dinsional space and tossing it to Ray.
"This is a communication amulet. You can use it no matter how far apart we are."
"It’s easy to use. Just insert a Magic Stone into the amulet and it’ll work."
"If anything cos up, you can contact Captain Finn directly."
