Moreover, Morse also had the achievement of leading hundreds of adventurers, who were members of Rivira Town, to successfully subjugate Goliath.
Under normal circumstances, the residents of Rivira Town prefer to wait for passing expeditions to help deal with Goliath.
As long as the rules on the strategy guide are strictly followed and one does not act rashly, there are usually no casualties.
Therefore, most of the time, Goliath is subjugated by adventurers from various parties who time their attacks shortly after its resurrection.
Of course, if he could borrow the strength of powerful adventurers like Shirou and his group, it would be both time-saving and cost-effective, making it perfect for Morse.
Morse said very politely.
What made him even more concerned was the prestige of the [Sword Demon].
Morse had a small presence in Orario's underground world, and he had long heard about the deeds of this legendary adventurer.
She remembered that when an expedition passed through Rivira before, Morse dared to speak insolently to Finn, the [Hero], but was polite and obedient to Burt, the [Fierce Wolf].
Morse sighed inwardly, of course, he would never dare to say such words out loud.
However, when his gaze fell on a certain young girl in the group, his expression suddenly changed drastically. He blurted out subconsciously: "A... a Banshee!"

Chapter 189: Elf Killer.
Although this inn's facilities are simple, its prices are more expensive than the luxury hotels on the surface of Orario. After all, this is the only relay point in the dungeon, like a scenic area shop halfway up the mountain, so higher prices are unavoidable.
After cleaning off the blood and dirt from her face, Filvis's true appearance was finally revealed to everyone.
She had bright black long hair and crimson eyes, with delicate features and a hint of heroism, exuding a unique charm.
Frankly speaking, Filvis's beauty was rare even among the Elven race. Elves were already known for producing handsome men and beautiful women, and her appearance was outstanding even among such a group. Her smooth black hair and bright red eyes complemented each other, giving her an aloof and alluring aura.
Filvis Chaldea, Level "", captain of the Dionysus Familia, title [White Maenad].
As her title suggests, Filvis's skin was as smooth and delicate as white porcelain, and her fitted white battle robe formed a sharp contrast with her dark black hair, giving people the first impression of a beautiful black and white silhouette.
Because ever since a certain incident, every team she had participated in had almost suffered a complete annihilation, with only she surviving alone.
If the bones are slightly dislocated, they can be restored to their original state with healing magic, but if Filvis has a severe dislocation like this, rashly healing it may cause the bones to connect in the wrong position—this is how Lefiya's healing magic works.
However, Amid is not here, so they can only rely on a doctor's technique to reset the bones, combined with healing magic or recovery potions for treatment.
However, another problem arose: Filvis strongly resisted the doctor touching her body.
"You elves are really troublesome, even at this time, you're still so delicate... Sorry, little girl, I'm not talking about you."
Shirou spoke: "Please tell me what to do, and I'll handle it."
Filvis didn't speak, just pursed her lips, as if she had defaulted to Shirou's suggestion. She sat quietly on the bed, her eyes slightly lowered.
In contrast, her ankle was already twisted and swollen, and the injury looked very serious.
Shirou followed the instructions and gently pressed his hand on the area indicated by the doctor. His movements were already as gentle and careful as possible.
[Innocent Monster]
[(There is also an unanalyzable hidden effect)]
The doctor was also taken aback by this sudden reaction: "This, this shouldn't be happening."
It's not that it doesn't hurt; bone resetting treatment is definitely painful.
Filvis's hands tightly gripped Shirou's shoulders, and she said through gritted teeth, "It's, it's okay, please continue—"
The doctor continued to instruct: "It's here, a little lighter, twist it slightly..."
As Shirou exerted more force, Filvis's grip tightened even more, and her delicate face was covered in cold sweat, in so much pain that she could barely speak.
Shirou nodded and then handed the doctor a Hephaestus Familia chit—adventurers in the dungeon would not waste precious backpack space to carry large amounts of money, so consumption in Rivira Town was usually done by accounting, and later someone would return to the surface to settle the bill.
Shirou asked.
Her voice was a little weak, but what she said next was a bit perplexing: "It hurts so much... It's so good..."
Shirou couldn't help but feel that a subtle emotional change seemed to be revealed in those crimson eyes—
Moreover, Shirou didn't know if it was because of too much pain, but Filvis's features were somewhat distorted.
Shirou said, then turned to Filvis: "Rest well tonight, and we'll take you back to the surface first thing tomorrow morning."
Among the adventurers killed by the enhanced mantis monsters, there were also several members of the "Dionysus Familia," that is, Filvis's companions.
Filvis was silent for a long time. Finally, she nodded slightly.
Shirou subconsciously glanced at the fragment of the shield that had been cut off by the blade.

Chapter 190: Dionysus.
Filvis's leg injury had basically healed with the help of Lefiya's healing magic, and she had regained her ability to walk normally.
However, throughout the entire journey, she remained silent and hardly spoke.
However, her cold attitude towards her saviors made Lunoire and the others a little dissatisfied.
Anya complained softly.
"Don't say that, she might just be... have a colder personality."
The girl felt caught in the middle between her own race and her teammates. She had originally wanted to build a better relationship with Filvis during this trip.
However, although Lefiya tried to get closer to Filvis, Filvis always maintained a sense of distance from her. In comparison, although Filvis would not actively communicate with Shirou either, she would at least answer his questions seriously.
Although not explicitly stated, the other girls besides Lefiya all had this impression in their hearts.
"Miss Filvis, can you tell me, what happened on the seventeenth floor before?"
Moreover, to be honest, it was too strange for such a monster with abnormal attack power, attack speed, and defense to appear in the seventeenth floor area.
Although its durability was poor and its movement speed was average, normally speaking, adventurers simply couldn't break through its combined magical and physical defense, and wouldn't even get to the stage of challenging its durability.
With Filvis's strength as a adventurer, as long as she didn't rashly challenge the giant Goliath, adventuring in this area should be relatively safe. However, an accident inevitably occurred.
However, judging from the results, those people were unable to escape their misfortune.
Although the eighteenth floor itself does not generate monsters, monsters from nearby floors, especially Goliaths, often arrive through the passages, becoming a nightmare for the local adventurers.
For many familias, Goliath is an excellent target—it has a certain level of difficulty, which can train the combat abilities of the members, while the danger is not too high.
However, reality is not always as smooth as planned. When the expedition fails to arrive in time, the adventurers of Rivira have no choice but to bite the bullet and take action themselves.
You can just call me Morse, Sword... Mr. [Holy Sword User (Saber)]!
The fact that these people in front of him can easily defeat Goliath shows that there are at least a few powerhouses in the team. Such power makes Morse feel awe.
This man is a very 'discerning' adventurer, and Lefiya is deeply impressed by this.
Because Finn is usually very tolerant of trivial matters, but Bete would really kick him into the wall.
Except for the [Sword Demon], all the members of the team are beautiful girls. The rumors are indeed true.
Morse doesn't want to follow in the footsteps of the [Keeper of Wine], dying miserably.
Hearing this, Filvis, who was leaning next to Emiya, had a trace of sorrow in her eyes, and subconsciously grabbed the boy's clothes.
In a simple inn in Rivira, the adventurers temporarily stopped to rest.
Fortunately, despite being simple, the inn was quite clean and comfortable. Emiya and the others opened a few rooms and planned to rest here for the night to recover their strength.
They set off in the morning and arrived at the eighteenth floor after a day of adventure. According to the plan, after resting for one night, they can return to the surface the next day.
Compared to Lefiya and Ryu, Filvis is slightly older, with a hint of maturity on her face, and those pointed ears undoubtedly show that she is a member of the Elf race.
As for her figure, Filvis is fuller and more curvy than the not-yet-fully-developed Lefiya and the slender Ryu.
However, compared to Alicia, there is still a big difference.
Until this moment, Emiya and the others truly knew Filvis's identity.
She is good at parallel chanting, has considerable magical firepower, and excels at speed. She is a warrior proficient in magic swordsmanship and usually serves as a high-level vanguard in the team.
However, in addition to the official title of [White Witch], Filvis has another more well-known and rather frightening nickname—[Banshee].
Therefore, Filvis earned this chilling nickname.
But at this moment, Emiya and the others didn't have time to delve into her past and these rumors. The most urgent task now is to help Filvis heal her injured ankle. For this reason, they found a doctor from Rivira to treat her.
If it were Amid, the [Battlefield Saintess]'s highest-level healing magic, whether it was a serious bone dislocation or a broken hand or foot, it could be directly restored to its original state without any sequelae.
The doctor they found seemed a little hesitant after realizing the [Banshee]'s identity. However, under the gaze of Emiya and the others, the doctor didn't dare to say anything and could only reluctantly continue the examination.
The doctor, who was human, suddenly became a little annoyed, but he didn't forget to apologize to Lefiya, the 'good Elf child'. Lefiya returned a helpless and awkward smile.
Emiya slowly sat down, slowly took off her white boots, and then took off her silk-like socks, revealing her fair and slender toes.
The doctor frowned and observed for a minute, and said, "This is obviously a sprain and dislocation. Boy, hold it here."
However, he himself didn't realize that at this moment—
[Effect Activated]
[Attack power against Elven women is greatly increased]
"Ah, ah, ah—"
Filvis let out a shrill scream, and the Elven girl subconsciously hugged Emiya, tears streaming down her eyes involuntarily.
But, Filvis is not a newbie. She is already a adventurer. After so many years of fighting, this kind of pain should not make a warrior who has reached this level so out of control.
"Ah!"
"Okay, okay, that's it. Next, you can use a recovery potion or healing magic."
Looking at Emiya's precise movements, the doctor breathed a sigh of relief.
Or, it can be traded through barter, but in this case, the actual cost will be higher. The appraisers in Rivira are very harsh when evaluating the price of magic stones and dropped items.
"How do you feel, Filvis?"
Filvis breathed lightly for a moment, then whispered, "...I'm fine, no, I'm fine."
Filvis raised her head and looked at Emiya.
If I had to describe it, it was as if I had finally truly entered her eyes from this moment on.
That distorted expression was like she was smiling.
"Lefiya, please use healing magic to help Filvis recover."
Filvis lowered her head and whispered, "Yes."
After a moment, Emiya spoke again: "I plan to place those relics in the cemetery, and then go to pay respects to some deceased people... Is there anything among these things that you want to take back to the surface?"
She picked out a scarf printed with a grape and wine glass crest, and a piece of broken shield, carefully holding these relics in her arms.
The next afternoon, the adventurers successfully returned to the surface from the safe zone on the eighteenth floor. There were no more abnormalities on the way back, and there were no attacks from strengthened monsters. The journey was peaceful and smooth.
This kind of aloof and proud personality is in line with people's inherent impression of Elven women.
"She's really reserved, she didn't even say thank you, meow."
Lefiya tried to defend Filvis, but she also felt complicated in her heart.
As an Elf herself, she had a natural affection for Filvis—perhaps because Filvis's appearance and temperament just hit Lefiya's sweet spot.
And this is also the point that makes the girls even more upset: this Elf with a cold expression is so indifferent to them, but actively leans towards the opposite-sex Emiya.
"A pretentious bitch Elf."
When they reached the fourth floor, the team stopped temporarily for a rest. Taking this opportunity, Emiya looked at Filvis and asked her.
What Emiya cared about was the information about the newly appeared mantis monster.
The information about this new type of monster is of great significance to the subsequent exploration of adventurers. The fact that adventurers from various familias constantly collect, summarize, and share information about various monsters is an important reason for the increase in the survival rate of adventurers today.
Filvis was silent for a moment, then whispered, "At that time, I and three members of the Dionysus Familia were exploring the sixteenth floor."
"That red mantis monster suddenly appeared, chasing a group of adventurers and running towards us."
She recalled.
Emiya nodded. He remembered that there were obviously more than three corpses among those wreckage encountered on the seventeenth floor. It seemed that this was a typical 'monster delivery'. Those fleeing adventurers brought the monster to other adventurers.
