The adventurer named Gran led the party searching for the dragon girl, finally breathing a deep sigh of relief upon returning to the entrance of the 19th floor.
“Gran! What's there to be afraid of? Those two unfamiliar adventurers definitely aren't strong! Besides, that guy covered in a cloak next to them is definitely the dragon girl we're looking for…”
“Shut up!” Gran roared again, interrupting the spiky-haired man's complaint.
“Do you know who those two are? If I hadn't stopped you, we would be in big trouble, do you understand?!”
“How…” The spiky-haired man wanted to argue, and the rest of his companions also showed some doubt.
Lu Yuan and Haruhime's appearances were very unfamiliar.
They didn't know either.
“I don't know about that man, but I do know the identity of that girl!”
“Although she rarely goes out, and the Guild has very little information about her, I happened to see her deity once by chance.”
Looking around at his companions, Gran slowly began to explain, “That girl's deity is Hestia!”
“What!? Hestia!!?”
“Are you kidding me? Isn't that where Alfia is now?”
“Alfia is a Level 7! If we offend Hestia…”
“Hiss… Even Dix wouldn't be a match for Alfia, right?”
“Nonsense! Dix is only Level 5, while Alfia is Level 7, and she even left behind a legend…”
“Thank goodness, thank goodness, if it weren't for your quick thinking, Gran, we would be in big trouble. A dragon girl, we can just lose her. There are plenty of other heretics, we can catch another one.”
“Yeah, it's not worth risking everyone's lives for a dragon girl!”
“……”
After listening to Gran's explanation, everyone, including the spiky-haired man, felt a sense of relief.
Go up against the Hestia Familia?
Sorry.
In Orario today, the Hestia Familia is tacitly ranked after the Freya and Loki Familias, the third uncrowned king.
It's just that the Hestia Familia has few members and hasn't reached a large scale.
Otherwise.
The gods wouldn't just tacitly acknowledge them, but openly acknowledge this third uncrowned king.
“Not only Alfia, but there are also rumors circulating recently that the Astrea Familia, which recently moved to Orario, and the Artemis Familia, which returned from the Great Tree Labyrinth after completing a Guild mission, are conducting an expedition together with the Hestia Familia.”
“That male adventurer from just now must be a member of one of the three Familias!”
“If we had attacked, not to mention Alfia, the other members of the three Familias could have crushed us!”
Move against a three-party allied force?
That's just courting death.
“Hiss…”
Hearing Gran's words, the many adventurers present collectively gasped.
They were once again grateful that Gran had led them away.
Pick a fight with the three Familias' joint expeditionary force?
They wanted to live a little longer.
As for the dragon girl?
Heh, as Gran said, there were plenty of heretics, and they didn't need to go looking for death for one dragon girl.
If Dix had any objections, he could go to the Hestia Familia himself.
Anyway, they didn't have the courage to do so.
……
On the other side.
The encounter with Gran's party was not even a minor interlude for Lu Yuan.
Dix?
A descendant of Daedalus?
A Level 5 adventurer?
So what!
If he was looking for death, he wouldn't mind using the Anywhere Door to banish him to the starry sky.
At most, it would just be one more piece of space junk.
“Lord Lu Yuan, are we just going to take her on the expedition like this?”
On the 19th floor, Haruhime watched as Lu Yuan killed a monster with one punch and bent down to pick up the materials, asking aloud.
“Yeah.” Lu Yuan casually threw the materials he picked up into the four-dimensional space and responded casually.
“Won't it attract too much attention…”
Haruhime looked worriedly at the dragon girl, no, it should be Wiene.
This was the name Lu Yuan had just given the dragon girl.
However…
At this moment, it was different from before.
Seemingly to satisfy his own hobby of dressing up.
Lu Yuan had taken back the dark brown cloak from Wiene.
It was replaced by a sky-blue tutu.
Even her waist-length hair had been tied into two pigtails and hung behind her head by Lu Yuan.
Plus, the sharp nails on her hands had been trimmed very flat.
Apart from her slightly cyan skin and a ruby between her eyebrows that was different from ordinary people, Wiene really looked like an ordinary little girl from her appearance alone.
“Lord Lu Yuan, don't leave me…”
Hearing Haruhime's words, Wiene pitifully raised her head, stretched out her right hand, and tugged on Lu Yuan's clothes.
In a short time.
After Lu Yuan and Haruhime's conversation, Wiene was able to communicate well in some ways.
“Attract attention? After this expedition, the Hestia Familia will really attract attention.”
Patting Wiene's little head to signal her to relax, Lu Yuan looked at Haruhime and said.
Now that he had accidentally met Wiene, the handling of the heretics had to be accelerated.
When the three Familias gathered at the end of the 19th floor.
He would first contact his former [Coolie?][Best Friend?] Fiel, and on the premise of letting her be a guide, he would also let all the heretics join the Hestia Familia's command.
Thinking about it, when this joint expedition ended, the heretics who appeared on the surface would definitely cause a sensation in the entire Orario again.
Just thinking about the future, the Hestia Familia with the addition of the heretics, and the continuous income of materials.
Lu Yuan was very happy.
Indeed.
Eggs should not be placed in one basket.
The failure of the two money-making plans (Growth Bank, Ishtar Familia Plan) had made him more cautious.
Not only the abilities of the character he was currently transformed into, but also the working group of heretics must be implemented!
Making money.
Lu Yuan was serious!
“No matter what, I will always support Lord Lu Yuan!” Haruhime held her hands together and said piously.
“Wie, Wiene will also support…” Wiene whispered in agreement from the side.
……
As the first stop after passing the safe floor.
The 19th floor was relatively much larger than the previous floors.
Plus, the joint team was conducting a full sweep.
A full 4 hours passed.
Everyone met again at the end of the 19th floor.
You must know.
Lu Yuan's team only spent two days on the first 18 floors, which translates to less than 3 hours per floor on average.
4 hours was already a long time.
“Is it because the monsters have become stronger? It took a little longer.”
“I still need to reserve some time to use the character's abilities to make money, it seems that this expedition will only be able to reach the thirtieth or fortieth floor at most.”
Roughly estimating the progress of the strategy, Lu Yuan thought to himself.
“Lu Yuan, the expedition has only reached the 19th floor, and you can't help it anymore? I just didn't expect you to choose a dragon girl this time.”
“Could it be that the members of the three Familias still can't satisfy you?”
Seeing through Wiene's identity at a glance, Alfia crossed her arms, stepped on high heels, came to Lu Yuan, and said coldly.
