Eero glanced at him coldly then glanced at other adventurers around, "So you are here to take away my little sister from the orphanage," listening to Eero, their faces changed.
In a while,
Miserable Howl spread through the whole street, Rye turned his head away, 'One day, I will also beat other like my brother.'
After a while, guild guards appeared, the onlookers side away.
"What happened here? Who called the guards?"
Looking at the audience around, when they glanced at the street in front, everyone took a breath, looking at six unrecognizable humans lying on the ground, with twisted face, arms and legs.
"I called you here, If it weren't for the rule of no killing, I would have killed them, what a pity." Eero raised his hand and spoke with pity flashed through his eyes.
Onlookers took a breath, Rye glanced at Eero in admiration, the guard frowned then asked solemnly, "It's also forbidden to beat someone like that."
"Oh, they were here to kidnap my little sister, I think they are traffickers, I beat them in self-defense, no one among them died." Eero replied calmly.
The guard captain was speechless, looking at Eero sitting there calmly. 'This guy is trying to bend the rules, but anyway we can't do anything. He looks very young and strong.'
He then ordered, "Take them away, check their identity." Another guard nodded and took them away, clearing the street.
Eero threw away the broken wooden block, it was filled with blood, and appeared beside Rye.
They returned to the Orphanage, where he quietly washed his hands and cuffs.
At night,
After telling the children stories from Zero dimension and watching them fall asleep, he left riding his cycle.
Feeling the dark and silent street around, his pupils shrank. Instantly, his arm sword appeared in his hand.
Clang!
Sparks flew in the street as Eero deflected the sword with a slash toward the figure. He stopped the cycle as a figure flickered in his eyes.
Eero raised his second sword as a guard in front of his chest. The next second, swords crossed again, and sparks flew around.
Eero slid back and stopped on the street. 'Fast and strong. I can't follow the movement with my eyes. Definitely a fifth or sixth level adventurer, but they are testing me instead of trying to kill. I don't feel any bloodthirst from them.'
Looking at the figure hidden in a green hoody, Eero focused. The swords crossed again, sparks flying around.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Dodging the slashes and deflecting a few attacks, a cut appeared on his cheeks, arms and shoulders. Blood drops seeped out, and his pupils shrank. 'It seems I have to get serious.'
While they were exchanging swords,
Far away, on a building few figure were witnessing their exchange.
A lady spoke with a warrior-like person standing behind her.
Another male figure she was talking to, adjusted his cap and replied with a smile, "I just wanted to see how capable her first familia can be. I also heard rumors about him, but he looks more capable than those rumors."
If someone here saw them both, they would be shocked, because one is Goddess Freya and the other is God Hermes.
"Oh, you are talking about Goliath. It's nothing special. Any Level 3 can defeat it," Freya said unimpressed.
"What if he is level 2 at that time?" Hermes revealed schemingly. Freya was surprised and then glanced at Hermes thoughtfully. 'what is his purpose this time?"
Instantly, both of their pupils shrank as they glanced at Eero. They were surprised, looking at his hair and eyes turning purple, his figure flickering with lightning. He instantly appeared in front of the opponent, his lightning sword stopping in front of her snow-white neck. Looking at Ryuu Lion standing in front of him in a daze, he turned and glanced at the few figures far away.
'It seems they can't live peacefully. Attacking me was their worst decision. Especially Hermes, that guy. I don't like a scheming character like him. I don't mind becoming a god killer if he crosses the limits,' Eero thought annoyingly, releasing his killing intent toward the direction from which he felt gazes.
Instantly, Hermes and Freya, who were paying attention to Eero, were startled.
Next second, they were transferred to somewhere unknown, looking at the red sky above and the bloody red land below. Next second, they appeared in front of an unimaginably huge bloody tower cut from two different sections.
The earth cracked in front of them as if wailing, then the sky shredded as if crying, engulfing the tower.
Hermes was fine but his face was a little pale. Freya sat down on the ground in horror, panting heavily. "Divine revelation. It was definitely Divine Premonition. It looks more dangerous than that thing. It's directly aiming at us both, and it will engulf and devour us," Freya spoke solemnly, glanced at Eero's direction. 'Is it related to him?'
Then she left after ordering her familia to picked her up. Hermes also hesitated a little, looking at Eero, then turned around and disappeared.
Eero then calmed down, feeling the gazes disappear, and glanced at frozen Ryuu and her bleeding neck. He retracted his sword and asked, "Why did you attack me suddenly? I have no enmity with you."
Ryuu was surprised, looking at his purple hair and eyes, also lightning flickering on his body. 'Is it some kind of enhancement skill like mine?'
"I am sorry, someone asked me to test your strength, in return, they would revoke my bounty. I meant no harm, just a friendly exchange," Ryuu apologized and bowed politely.
Eero shook his head, and his sword disappeared. "It doesn't matter. Don't let others use you like a fool next time," he waved his hand and walked toward his cycle. After crossing a few streets, he returned to his shop.
Ryuu was startled, 'What does he mean by using me?' then covered the green hoodie thoughtfully and leaped away, jumping above the building toward the pub direction.
Eero returned to his residence, looking at sleeping Hestia in the room. 'It seems I have to increase my strength. Except for her, all those other gods are extremely scheming. Also, I wasn't a match for Ryuu. If she used her skills, what if tomorrow a level 7 shamelessly tries to kill me?'
Eero's expression became thoughtful as he decided to gain strength at a fast pace.
