【Sudden Stop】!
The first development ability Bell chose after leveling up!
Due to the limitations of the wristband, this development ability has now been raised from H-rank to F-rank!
F-rank 【Sudden Stop】 further increases the probability of Bell triggering time stop during combat.
Unfortunately.
This battle with Alise once again allowed Bell to trigger this development ability and seize victory in the game.
However.
At this moment, there was no joy on Bell's face.
Instead, there was a sense of confusion and panic.
More precisely, it was a kind of helplessness.
"What, what's happening to me? Yuan-ge!"
In a square spring, about 3 meters long and wide and meters deep, a girl with white, waist-length hair, a graceful figure, and a face resembling Alfia, but with wine-red pupils, was covering her wet clothes, crying out in a sweet voice.
And the culprit behind all this was none other than Lu Yuan!
【Name: Lu Yuan】
【Level: (16%)】 (Killing monsters with Deadly Transformation does not increase experience, something Lu Yuan is not yet aware of.)
【Skill: Random Transformation (Current Transformation: Perfect Maiden Spring, 1 day) (Can permanently turn a male into a female)】
【Additional Abilities: One, Magikarp.
Two, Dora Rokuhana.
】
That's right!
After 3 days, Lu Yuan's ability activated again, again, and again!
And this time, the transformation was even more abnormal.
Maiden Spring.
From a work called Ranma, where the protagonist fell into the Maiden Spring and gained the ability to turn into a male when splashed with hot water and a female when splashed with cold water.
But.
Obviously, the spring that Lu Yuan transformed into, being the perfect version, perfectly eliminated the side effect of being able to turn back into a male.
In other words.
If Lu Yuan couldn't find a solution, Bell would live his life as a female.
......
"So, because you turned into that Maiden Spring thing, Bell is now a girl?"
After a while.
Alfia, who had brought everyone over, taken the translation konjac prepared by Lu Yuan, and used 【Spring Language】 to communicate with Lu Yuan, had black lines appearing on her forehead again.
She had always thought that the stockings Lu Yuan turned into were the most outrageous thing.
But she didn't expect that something even more outrageous had appeared now.
Maiden Spring?
Heaven knows how Lu Yuan turned into this ghostly thing.
"I can't help it, who told Bell to be holding me when I transformed? If he had put me on the ground, this kind of mistake would never have happened!" Lu Yuan explained slowly.
At the same time, he was still thinking.
If Freya knew that he had turned Bell into a girl, he wondered if she would explode with anger.
Well, hopefully, she won't be angry.
Lu Yuan silently prayed.
"Is there really no way to turn him back?" Alfia asked with a headache.
Her good nephew suddenly became a niece.
What was this all about?
"There's no way, because it's the perfect version, the side effect of turning back into a male has been eliminated."
Alfia: "......"
Are you sure turning back into a male is a side effect?
Although Alfia wanted to ask that, she ultimately didn't say it.
Having followed Lu Yuan for so long, she felt that she was slowly getting used to this abnormality.
"Is this transformation time one day?" Alfia began to ask about other things.
There was no way.
Lu Yuan was currently stationed here as a pool of water, even if she wanted to take Lu Yuan back, it was impossible.
"This transformation is one day, but I don't know about the next one," Lu Yuan honestly replied.
Alfia: "......"
Was this her being told to be mentally prepared?
Lu Yuan's next transformation might be even weirder?
Speechless, having been an adventurer for so many years, Alfia didn't know how many times she had been speechless since meeting Lu Yuan.
On the other side.
As far as Bell was concerned, the girls of the three major familias were extremely curious.
But if you had to say who had the biggest emotional reaction, then it undoubtedly belonged to Lili.
"Ah, Bell-sama has turned into a girl just like me, I feel like life has lost its meaning."
With lifeless eyes, she squatted down, picked up a twig at random, and poked at the weeds on the ground, Lili's heart was as dead as ashes.
She had always been secretly wary of other women approaching Bell.
Now? No need.
Because Bell himself had become a woman.
Now, the one to be wary of might be a man?!
At the thought of this, Lili only felt that her sky was about to collapse.
"God Hestia, Lady Alfia, is there really no way for Yuan-ge to turn me back?"
A sweet voice came, and Bell's tone became particularly urgent.
She was anxious.
Not just because of the physical discomfort, but also the environment.
In this form, how would she explain it to the guild? How would she interact with some of the adventurers she knew?
Wouldn't that make her a laughingstock!
In fact, Bell suspected that once the news spread that she had turned from male to female, many gods would come to harass her.
After all, she had witnessed the essence of the fun-loving gods from her own god, Apollo, and other gods.
If possible, Bell felt that it would be better to return to her original form.
"Uh, it should be impossible......" Hestia's eyes darted around, on the surface answering Bell's question, but in her heart......
In fact, she was already thinking about how to secretly use the spring that Lu Yuan had transformed into tonight.
Three meters long and wide, meters deep.
Taking a bath shouldn't be too much, right?
Lu Yuan had been away from her for a full three days, this time, taking advantage of the fact that Lu Yuan couldn't move, deepening their relationship was completely reasonable.
It's decided!
Tonight, she would pitch her tent directly on the spring and soak in the bath all night!
"It's temporarily impossible," Alfia also said.
"How could this be......" Bell was sunk, that lost little appearance really had a bit of a pitiful charm.
At the same time.
Goddess Artemis was also staring blankly at the spring.
Her connection with the 【Arrow of Orion】 was completely severed......
"Lady Artemis, has Orion-sama really turned into this pool of water?" Teresa asked cautiously beside Artemis, as if comforting the god's emotions.
"Do you think he is still our Orion?" Hearing Teresa's words, Artemis's expression instantly became extremely serious.
It was as if she was asking Teresa, and also as if she was asking herself.
"Lady Artemis, Orion-sama has always been the Orion-sama who saved us, this is an unchangeable fact!" Teresa said thoughtfully.
As soon as she spoke.
Many of the Artemis Familia girls stood behind Teresa.
Obviously, they all agreed with Teresa's words.
The hero who saved them was Orion!
That was enough!
"Yes... No matter what Orion becomes, I just need to know that he is the Orion who saved me, and that's enough......"
A trace of determination flashed in her eyes, and Artemis had no more doubts in her heart.
Looking at the pool of water that Lu Yuan had turned into, her eyes became even gentler.
At the same time.
Right here in the Great Tree Sea, the trip was temporarily put on hold because of Lu Yuan's problem.
Over in Orario.
At the cost of betting on being sent back to Heaven, the Ishtar Familia's war game ended in defeat......
