Magic swordsman of Orario

Chapter 13: Dispute at the table



Arthur wasn't sure what Riveria was thinking, but if he knew what she was thinking, he would say she would be alright since he was interested in her even if the age difference among them was quite wide.

Still, there was a werewolf who showed an annoyed expression before snorting and said " Even if he possessed storage magic, you guys are giving too much attention to this level 1 trash! If he didn't handle the first floor alone, there is no meaning taking him to the lower floors."

That guy is Bete Loga. He is an executive and one of the level 5 adventurers in the Familia, but his personality was very nasty as he see low level adventures as weaklings and trash.

Arthur was angry as he looked at the werewolf, and his unique magic 'Royal thunder' activated unconsusly.

Arthur's eyes glowed with blue thunder, and electrical sparks could be seen flickering in his body. His soupboul which was dipped with a spoon, started boiling.

Loki shouted " ARTHUR! CALM DOWN! "

Loki's voice took him out of his anger and he said " I'm sorry."

Then he just got out of table without finishing his breakfast.

Ais also go after him because what Bete, the werewolf said pretty much can break one's confidence or make them reckless.

As for reckless adventures, there is only one outcome, Death.

While Loki was very surprised because the thing Arthur showed was too fimiliar to Loki.

'That power was pretty much like her big brother, Thor's power.'

At first she just dismissed that unique skill as a mere skill but now she was forced to reconsider Arthur's Identity.

'Is he Thor's son in mortal world? But gods can't have children in lower world no matter how much sex they have!

She also don't know that if Thor would have Descended into the lower world.

Bete only glared at the direction where Arthur left and Ais followed as he have a secret crush on Ais.

Riveria only snorted and ignored Bete as she also stood up and left the table.

When Arthur, Ais and Riveria left, Finn looked at Bete and said "Bete, why do you act like that with Arthur? "

"Ha? What are you talking about? I just stated the facts." Bete totally dismissed his aqusations.

Tiona got angry and said " You stupid mutt, what do you want to prove saying that to Arthur? "

"Mutt?! You dare to call me a mutt?! " Bete stood up from his seat, and he was ready to go into a fight then and there.

"You stupid Amazoness! Your head has been clouded with fluffy things like your sister, you cant see the reality. What if he was a spy from Evilus? Taking our high ranking adventutets into dungen then killed them with others?"

The Loki Familia was one of the strongest Familia in the Orario city andeven the world. It wasnt weird for them to have an enemy as they hunted down Evilus in dark era of Orario. It's possible for Evilus to send a spy to their Familia.

Bete's concern wasn't unfounded and seeing naive Ais, his crush stick to Arthur all time like a magnet make Bete furious and worried.

"He isn't a spy. " Unexpectedly, it was Loki who said that out loud.

" Loki how can you be so sure? " Bete asked back.

"When he recived a blessing, it was the first time he recived it, and his stats are at 0 at everything." Loki said.

If Arthur was a spy, then he would have another God's blessing mark, which would have shown in process of engraving another gods falna.

It's like installing os in computer. You can tell if a computer have a pre-installed os or you have to install it yourself.

It was the reason Loki belived Arthur isn't a spy.

"As expected of you, Loki." Finn said with smile.

He too have seen the process of falna engraving, and have a grasp of Arthur's personality. Arthur can't be called a hero because his skills portrayed that he can go to great lenths to protect his loved ones and he only care about his friends and family, as for others he didn't know what would Arthur do.

This can definitely portray that Arthur is lawful Evil. Means he would answer cruelty with cruelty just like he did in a while ago.

"Captain, you are so amazing! " Tione had a feverish gaze and stared at Finn obsessively.

Finn had sweat on his forehead and decided to ignore Tione.

"See, Bete?" Tiona looked at Bete smugly.

Bete only snorted and walked away.

"Besides, the last skill he used, I think it's a fragmet of a God's power, and his very existence will react with dungeon. Monsters will probably flock whichever floor he was in." Loki dropped a bomb at the table.

"""" WHAT! """" Everyone.

Dungeon can't allow a God's existence inside the dungeon. So whenever a God stepped inside a dungeon, there were enhanced monsters born to eliminate the Gods.

So if Arthur carry a fragmet of a God's power, his existence will also react with dungeon. Monsters come in to flocks to eliminate him as soon as he stepped foot inside dungeon.

Alicia then said with realisation " So that's why you asked us to get out of the room,to hide this skill."

Loki, Finn and Gareth go along with Alicia's words and didn't disclose his true skill set.

If ever his falna was disclosed to other Gods there will be a war among Familias, to snach Or kill him in the bud.

" So, everyone should keep this secret, unless you want to destroy our Familia." Finn said in a very serios tone and everybody nodded.

Arthur come to purchase station of Familia, and collected 375,000 valis, the payment of his healing potions. Then he returned to his room.

In his room he saw Riveria and Ais is waiting.

Riveria said, " Arthur, I'm sorry about what mean things Bete told about you. You shouldn't take it to heart, Finn and others have already scolded Bete for his behaviour and it will not be repeted."

Arthur shook his head in sadness and said "well, whatever Bete said is practically true. I'm just a level 1 newbie, there is no point you, a level 6 adventurer to guard me because you can't alawys guard me whenever I went inside of the dungeon. So its better to not to come this time either."

" You will become strong. Stronger than Bete, stronger than everyone else." Ais said suddenly which startled Riveria and Arthur. This statement also showed how much trust have Ais placed on Arthur.

Arthur smiled "Yes, I will, after all I have to protect you guys so I have to become stronger as soon as possible."

Ais blushed and turn around then she took Arthur's hand,dragging him out of the room while saying "Arthur, lets go register with the Guild."

Riveria smiled, and tought 'It seems Ais also have taken a liking to Arthur. Well if its Ais, I don't mind sharing Arthur with her.'

Riveria, Arthur along with Ais went to the Guild for registration.

The Guild, as usual was full of adventurers, who came and walked out. However, because he used his mask and black hoodie, which gave off a creepy feeling, so others stay out of his way to avoid any conflict with him.

He walked towards Eina, who seemed to be absentminded.

On the other hand, Eina let out a sigh several times, wondering when her knight in the black armour would come.

"Eina! Focus on your work! "

"Yes...." Eina answered lazily

Misha Flott, one of the employees of the Guild and a human, let out sigh at her friend.

Eina looked at her friend and she must admit, even for a human her friend was a beauty.

With a slim body, shoulder-lenth pink hair, and pink-coloured eyes, Eina could see many men come to see Misha.

Eina's mood was totally down, because Arthur have promised to come today, at 9 am but it's already 9:30 and he didn't come.

"Stupid Arthur! " Eina was pouting resentment, she even reminded him to come at 9 sharp.

Suddenly, the quite knock was heard and attracted Eina.

"Eina."

"!!!"

Hearing this voice, Eina awoke and turned her attention to the man who called her name.

"Arthur!"

"Hey there."

It might be only tomorrow they met each other, and frankly Eina helped him so much.

"I want to register as an adventuter under Loki Familia."

"Allright then I will become your advisor as promised. Is that all right with you?" Eina quickly acted since Rose and Misha were both beside her and she didn't want to anyone to steal the march.

"....." Riveria.

Watching how Eina acted beside Arthur, it doesn't need a genius to figure out that her niece is growing feelings for him.

"Okay." Arthur nodded and didn't think too much even if Eina become his advisor, and he was okay with it since Eina was also one of his targets. Through advisory meetings, he can some time with her.

I want to go to the Dungeon now. Is that okay?" Arthur asked.

Eina said bluntly, " No! You don't have any weapons or armour with you! How can you enter dungeon barehanded? Do you have a deathwish?"

" Don't worry, we will head to weapon shop at Babel, then buy some armour and a weapon for him before we head inside of the dungeon." Riveria can see the worry and panic in Eina's eyes.

".... Another competitor!" Ais muttered under her breath.

"Eh? Then let me give you a quick lecture on the dungeon!" Eina quickly dragged Arthur to the empty private room, Riveria and Ais come along.

There Eina explained many things about the dungeon. It wasn't that she didnt have an urge to do something, she shouldn't do in this room not before the watching eyes of Riveria and Ais, especially Ais who was watching her as her mortal enemy.

Riveria was watching her and giving her a knowing smile.

However, because of Ais's icy stare, it reminded her that Arthur's safety was more important than anything, so she focused on teaching him.

Arthur alongside Riveria listened carefully. Arthur found various things he didn't hear from Finn previously. Then after an hour, the lecture ended.

Riveria also found out that Eina, her so called 'niece' is a walking encyclopedia about dungeon and it's operations.

Well it turned out that it was a good thing for Arthur to have Eina as a advisor. Well better be as a adventuring companion but, she knew that Eina's mother,her friend was sick so it was not an option for her to be a adventurer.

After saying goodbye to Eina, Arthur, Riveria and Ais went to 8th floor Hephaestus shop.

There he aproached the counter and asked " Excuse me, is there any Welf Crozzo made armour and swords available?"

The gruff looking dwarf at the counter came out and lead him to some of the one handed swords and pointed two.

The two identical looking swords, Arthur touched it and feel it. Although the material used in making these are very common steel, but the craftmanship is top class.

"Sir, how much are these?" Arthur asked

" 6,999 valis each, take both and you can get a 99 valis discount each." The dwarf replied.

Arthur asked happily " Alright, I'll take both of them. Now lets see some light armours."

The shopkeeper dwarf take Arthur to a corner where various boxes were stored. There he pointed a particular box and said "This is the only light armor which is made by that stubborn brat!, if you dont like it, I can recommend you something else."

Arthur examine the armour and at the first glance, he identify the armour, The Pyonkichi Mk-II.

The Pyonkichi Mk-II was the first of Welf Crozzo's works that Bell bought, costing 9,900 valis. He bought it when he first browsed the Hephaestus Familia shop on the 8th floor of the Babel tower.

Now should Arthur buy this and cut off Bell's chance?

Well, lets buy this now. I can give it to him for free later, after all Hestia Familia will be a broke familia and any help will be appreciated. Also I'm taking his girls, fair exchange right?

"I like it sir. How much is it?" Arthur asked.

"Haha kid I like your taste of equipment. It's 9,999 valis but for you it's 9,900 valis." The shopkeeper dwarf answered cheerfully.

Arthur's left eye twiched, ' I didn't get more discount compared to Bell at all!'
