Loki grinned foolishly as if he had found a treasure, but he did not forget the main business.
"Lieyan, you are from another world, so you probably can't understand the common language here. So I won't write down the attributes for you this time. I will just relay them to you directly. But the rest is up to you. I will arrange a teacher for you to learn the common language."
Ah this...
Lieyan looked bitter.
My family, who can understand? I finally got the coveted golden finger, but because I can't understand the instruction manual, I have to learn a language from scratch.
"Don't even think about being lazy, we'll find a very, very, very strict teacher to supervise you. Otherwise, every time you update the attribute values, you'll have to have someone verbally relay them to you. It's embarrassing for you, but we'll find it tiring."
Loki curled his lips in disdain, and looking at this face, Lieyan couldn't help but sigh.
"Loki, you are now like a scumbag who doesn't recognize people after pulling up his pants. No wonder girls don't like you."
"Huh? What kind of metaphor is that!? I am like this because Lieyan is not a cute girl's fault. If you were as soft and fragrant as Ai Sitan and the others, slurp——"
Loki was in pain from being poked and jumped in anger, but the next moment he suddenly remembered something and smiled foolishly, while his fingers began to move like a weird uncle.
Mercilessly suppress with a knife.
Lieyan, who had just joined the clan, activated the skill [Insubordination]. A heavy hand knife that almost split the dragon shell of the sickle-weasel dragon instantly made Loki's eyes clear again.
"Head! Head! The head is going to break!!"
Loki cried out in pain, holding his head, and rolled around on the ground. It was unclear whether Hestia would regret it enough to roll around in the future, but Loki started rolling around first.
"Let's get down to business. Lord God, you just said to verbally convey my attributes?"
"Hey! How can you kill your own Lord God with a knife and then ask questions with such a calm face?"
"What are you talking about? I just defeated a lustful evil spirit that was attached to you, the god. Look, aren't you in much better condition now?"
"What a fart!"
Lieyan took out his hand knife again and activated his skill, intimidating!
Loki cringed!
"Just say it, who's afraid of you?"
He mumbled to himself and refused to admit defeat, but his body honestly recalled the sacred words he had just seen.
"As for attributes, since the children who have just joined the family are receiving grace for the first time, all their attributes are 0. They will gradually grow in the subsequent adventures. The status before receiving grace will only affect the manifestation of skills and magic, and will not be reflected in the grace after signing. Therefore, the main thing to look at is magic and skills, and your magic and skills..."
"As for you, you only have one magic slot, and it has already appeared. Its name is the Gate of Time Travel, and the chant is [Open, the gate to another world!]. Judging from the effect, this magic should be your ability to take me to your world. The favor I gave you seems to have fixed your ability."
At this point, Loki's expression became serious.
"That's it, I understand."
"Don't you feel a little regretful?" Loki tilted his head: "This ability is something you already have. My grace not only fixed it, but also occupied one of your original magic slots. Otherwise, it would not be impossible to awaken a very powerful magic."
"No, that's enough."
Because this was a life-or-death battle, Lieyan, who had become calm and serious, shook his head slightly.
He was not greedy for magic. Although he had become Loki's follower, he was still a hunter at heart. Rather than activating the inconvenient magic, he trusted the weapons in his hands, the armor on his body, the protective stones, the decorations, and the Kinsect he had carefully cultivated more.
What kind of magic do you need? If you have time to chant magic, you can use super magic to deal with him.
"Hey, it's up to you. Next is skills," Loki said. "You have two skills. One is Feather Fall, which allows you to ignore fall damage. The other is Giant Hunter, which is triggered when fighting against oversized enemies and slightly enhances attack and defense. Although I don't know what kind of experience you have before, I have to say that these two are good skills that can play a big role in the dungeon."
"Yu Luo and the Giant Beast Hunter..."
Lieyan's eyes lit up. No problem. He was very familiar with these two.
The manifestation of skills in the world of Dicuo is affected by many factors, such as the wishes of the favored, but there are two factors that account for a relatively large proportion.
One is the quality of the favored person, such as Welf's skill "Magic Sword Bloodline".
The other is the experience gained during the adventure, such as Bell's skill "Bullfighting Instinct".
The skills acquired by Lieyan just correspond to these two factors. Knees of steel are the basic quality of a hunter, and hunting giants is the experience he has always had.
That's it. Isn't that all? What does it mean to be a little bit familiar? That's it.
In an instant, I felt that the world had become more friendly.
"It seems that you know the effects of these two skills better than me, so I won't say much more." Loki, who had become serious, curled his lips and patted Lieyan's shoulder. "We will arrange for someone to help you after the banquet. Your weapons and equipment are still in that world, remember to bring them over later."
"...Banquet? Shouldn't we go directly to the underground city?"
"What are you thinking? How can you let a new member who just joined the clan go directly to the dungeon?"
Loki rolled his eyes. "Registration of adventurers, acquisition of information about dungeons, and learning the common language. You still have a lot to do. Just be prepared."
"it is good."
"By the way, you should have some monster materials left over, right? If possible, could you bring some over? Not too much, I need it."
"……it is good."
Chapter 4: Who is this newcomer?
The residence of the Loki family is a huge building complex named "Dusk Hall".
Although this place is named as a pavilion, in fact, there is no connection between this residence and the pavilion. Instead, it is a castle-like complex consisting of several huge towers. The towers are connected to each other by stone trestle bridges, and finally converge on the tallest tower in the center.
The main god, Loki, lives on the top floor of the central tower.
And now, all the members of Loki's clan who stayed in the clan's residence gathered in the large conference room at the bottom of the central tower.
"Captain!"
On a long corridor, a brown-skinned Amazon girl with waist-length black hair, wearing only a tube top and a calf-length skirt, showing off her arms, shoulder blades, and slender waist, waved towards the figure at the end of the corridor.
The girl's name is Dione Silut, she is one of the strongest among Loki's family, currently at level 5, and her nickname is Angry Snake.
The one she called the leader was a young blond boy with a childish appearance.
Although he looks very young, this little human boy with soft golden hair and blue eyes like the lake is the true leader of the Loki clan, one of the three pillars supporting the Loki clan, a well-deserved backbone leader, and currently a LV 6 hero, Finn Timna.
"It's Tione. What's the matter? Are you waiting for me here for something?"
Finn smiled gently and walked side by side with the girl Tione.
"Hehe, it's okay. I just want to go with you, Captain." Tione smiled innocently, "I don't know what Loki wants to do by summoning all of us this time."
"It must be something important."
"Like a spontaneous banquet?"
"Haha, given Loki's personality, this is not impossible. But it shouldn't be the case this time." Thinking of his own Lord God, Finn could only smile helplessly.
"Huh? Why?" Tione turned his head in confusion, staring at the baby face of his leader without blinking, his passionate eyes as hot as if he wanted to eat him up.
Amazon doesn't hide its admiration.
This Amazon girl was madly obsessed with Finn, so she waited in the corridor where Finn might pass by and walked side by side with him.
"Because of the tone... I guess." The Dwarf Clan's brave warrior was unwavering in his passionate love. After a moment of thought and hesitation, he was a little hesitant, but in the end his tone turned into determination.
"Loki's tone is as if she has encountered some treasure. I remember the last time she acted like this was when you, Tione, and Tiona joined the Familia. I guess this time, a new person with great potential has also joined the Familia."
……
"Yo."
"Finn and Tione are here too. Looks like everyone is here now."
"Are they all here? I don't think so. The little girl isn't here."
After arriving at the conference room, Finn found his own small circle effortlessly. After politely saying goodbye to the Amazon girl, Finn came to the summit place - a veritable summit place.
The first one to answer Finn's call was an elf with waist-length hair the color of emerald and pointed ears of astonishing length. Her name was Livilia Rios Alf. She was the deputy leader of Loki's family and also the strongest wizard in the family. Like Finn, she was a LV 6 warrior.
The person who answered was a real dwarf warrior, Grace Landrock, whose height was between that of dwarves and elves, with a strong build, a beer belly, a big beard and many other features. This dwarf heavy warrior was the vanguard of the team and was also a LV 6 strongman.
Together with Finn himself who is also a Level 6 warrior, the three of them form the leadership circle of the Loki clan and serve as the three pillars supporting the Loki clan.
"I think Ais has gone into the dungeon alone again."
Livilia's expression was somewhat helpless. Speaking of this, it was really a common occurrence. This little girl was like this, spending the whole day in the dungeon.
Go to the dungeon when you have something to do, and go to the dungeon when you have nothing to do.
Even when she was returning from a long-distance trip and everyone else was resting, she would run into the dungeon without anyone noticing.
The Ais that Livilia mentioned is the little girl that Grace mentioned. She is a senior member of Loki's family. Her full name is Ais Wallenstein, LV 5. For some reason, even when she is resting, she is very persistent in going to the dungeon to fight.
"Find some time and find a way to have Tione, Tiona, and Lefiya take Aisi out to rest. Although there is still some time before the next expedition, it will be a problem if we stay in the dungeon and fight for a long time, and our spirits are always tense." Finn gave the order with a wry smile.
When it comes to exercise, Ais has never been a cause for concern, but precisely because of this, she is always a cause for concern. Even Finn, who is as calm and wise as a brave man, can't help but feel a little headache when facing Ais's problems.
"I'll pay attention." Livilia nodded slightly.
At this time, as if noting the presence of the team leader, the noisy conversations in the conference room were slightly suppressed for a moment, and everyone looked in the direction of the dwarf warrior, expecting what he would say to summon everyone here.
Yes, the order for this meeting was issued by Finn. As for the Lord God Loki himself, he hurriedly found Finn and ordered all the people in the clan’s residence to go to the conference room. Then he ran out in a hurry, and no one knew what he was doing.
Facing everyone's gaze and Finn's smile, Grace slapped his head, resigned himself to his fate, and looked around. After a while, he found his goal - a small staircase with four floors.
The large conference room was a facility that was only used in more formal occasions among Loki's family. In order to allow some petite but high-ranking people to give speeches, it would naturally be equipped with corresponding props - Grace also had a staircase, but it only had three levels, which was exactly the same set as Finn's.
Stepping onto the stairs, Finn coughed lightly and said loudly:
"Lord Loki ordered us to gather together this time, but he did not specify what the matter was. Please wait a moment. Lord Loki should be here soon."
"Don't wait, I'm already here."
Before Finn could finish his words, Loki pushed open the door on the other side and walked in with a swagger, looking very smug and his mouth was grinning from ear to ear. It was obvious at a glance that something good must have happened.
Taking Finn's place, Loki sat carelessly on the small steps amid Finn's helpless smile, looking at his people below, grinning.
"I called everyone here because I have something important to announce. Thanks to my foresight, a new member has joined our clan today."
"Oh oh oh!!"
The discussion started again.
Finn smiled and nodded to Tione who was looking at him happily in the crowd.
Loki raised his hand to silence the discussion, then continued:
"He has just been here for a short time. He is a human, older than many of you here. He has some shortcomings that may be problematic in the eyes of adventurers. However, since we have accepted him as a follower, there are some things I need to make clear in advance."
