Broly: Want my help with revenge? Although I'm not a professional.
Chapter 739 Broly: Want my help with revenge? Even though I'm not a professional...
When we left the underground city and returned to the surface, it was already dusk.
“Mr. Broly, I apologize for my rudeness yesterday morning.”
Before parting, Philweis bowed to the Saiyan boy in apology.
"Also, thank you for helping me get revenge."
She paused, then expressed her gratitude.
"Don't worry about it, it's just a small favor."
Broly waved his hand.
"I will remember your kindness and will repay you if needed."
Phil Weiss said seriously.
"Do you need one? Well, there is one."
Broly Road.
"What is it?"
“Your parallel chanting technique is quite good. If possible, I would like to ask you to help guide Lefia in developing her parallel chanting ability.”
"Hey, Mr. Broly, this is a favor you've done for me, how can you use it on me?"
The elf girl standing nearby, upon hearing this, quickly waved her hand.
“If Lefia needs it, I can guide her in practicing the technique of parallel chanting, but this is voluntary and cannot be considered as a reward for you.”
Philweis glanced at the elven girl beside her, then turned back to the Saiyan boy, shaking her head as she spoke.
In Phil Weiss's view, doing what she wanted to do was not a reward.
"But apart from this, it seems there's nothing else I need you to repay me for."
Philvis is not a target of his pursuit, and Broly has no need for her.
"However, if Miss Philweis insists on repaying me, then please be happy from now on."
Broly thought about it carefully, then turned to the serious-looking female elf and said...
"Eh?!"
Phil Weiss looked over in surprise.
"Of course, after you're happy, I hope you can share some of that happiness with Lefia, so that she can also feel happy because of your happiness."
The White Witch seems likely to become friends with Lefia. Broly has no need of Philweis, but if she can help make Lefia happy, that's another matter.
"Ah, I'll try my best..."
When asked to share her happiness, Phil Weiss's expression was somewhat blank, but she still managed to give her response.
After making an appointment with Lefia that she could visit the Dionysian Familia at any time to consult her about chanting, the white witch took her leave.
"Miss Phil Weiss seems a little dazed."
Watching the white witch's silhouette as she walked along the street ahead, Lefia felt a little worried about her condition.
"It's probably because no one ever asked her to be happy, and her experiences may have made it difficult for her to think of anything that would make her happy."
Tiona chimed in from the side, and while her statement wasn't entirely accurate, it was generally on the right track.
[Weird guy? Happy? Me?]
Philweis walked in a daze toward the Dionysian Familia, her mind churning with complex thoughts.
"Isn't there anything happy about it...?"
Lefia felt that Tiona's speculation was rather sad. The sentimental elf girl made up her mind that if it was true, she would help Miss Philweis create some happy memories together.
"Then we'll take our leave."
Asphiel, the all-powerful one, led the members of the Hermes Familia away. Just as the Loki Familia was also preparing to part ways with Broly, the Saiyan boy called out to the Sword Princess who was about to leave.
"Ms. Ais..."
"What's wrong, Mr. Broly?"
"I'm sorry I didn't catch the other guy."
"Ok?"
Ais tilted her head, seemingly not understanding why the boy should apologize to her for this.
“I heard about you from that Fels. Miss Ais, the reason you were willing to go to the 24th floor of the labyrinth for the investigation mission must be to find clues related to your mother, right?”
Broly also suddenly thought of this.
"Uh……"
The swordswoman paused for a moment, then nodded.
"If I can catch the other guy, maybe you can get some clues about your mother from him."
"Miss Ais's mother?"
Lefia and Tiona both looked over with some curiosity. They joined the Loki Familia later than Ais, so they didn't know about Ais's background.
“You captured that white-haired ghost, but he didn’t say anything. I suppose even if you capture that strange woman named Rives, she won’t tell us anything either. Mr. Broly, you don’t need to worry about it.”
Ais shook her head.
"Moreover, I didn't come away empty-handed. At least I learned that behind those two strange people were the immortals of the underground city."
Thanks to the white-haired ghost's explanation, Ais learned that the beings behind the two were the fairies of the dungeon.
Although it's unclear why there are beings like fairies deep within the dungeon, it's not surprising that the two could call out their mother's name.
In ancient times, most immortals knew each other.
"Miss Ais, is there anything I can help you with?"
"what?"
"For example, like Miss Phil Weiss, helping her get revenge or something."
Ais fell silent.
"Actually, while I'm not a professional at revenge, I'm quite good at it if I had to. What do you think?"
"I never thought about this kind of thing..."
Ais had experienced firsthand how powerful the Black Dragon was. Neither her father, the great hero, nor her mother, the fairy, were confident in protecting her, so they chose to seal her away, leaving her to endure a long period of unconscious darkness. Ais didn't think her parents would have done this unless they were forced to.
When her time began to flow again, a thousand years had passed in the world. Her parents had disappeared, leaving her alone in this world. The only way she could learn about her parents was through the fairy tale of the great hero Albert defeating the black dragon.
However, his father Albert was left with only a grave, buried in Orario, where he became a revered ancient hero.
The mother didn't even leave her name. None of the six immortal spirits who defeated the black dragon mentioned her name, as if she had been forgotten by time.
The swordswoman attributes her misfortunes to the black dragon, regarding him and all monsters as mortal enemies. However, as she grows up, she comes to understand the power of the mortal enemy she faces, which is also the reason she pursues power.
However, the sudden appearance of someone offering to help her take revenge made Ais feel somewhat unreal.
His enemy was the legendary Black Dragon, a being that even a great hero like his father had to sacrifice his life to defeat...
The fact that Mr. Broly was able to ask about her mother suggests that he may already know about his own situation, which should include the fact that his enemy is the Black Dragon.
Should you agree to this, thus dragging the other person into your personal feud?
Ais began to think about it.
Mr. Broly is very strong, much stronger than me. If he were there, my chances of successfully taking revenge would be...
"I'd rather kill my enemies myself, with my own strength."
Ais, her mind wavering, made her own answer. Of course, the swordswoman didn't doubt Broly's strength; it was just that challenging the Black Dragon was dangerous. Even the strongest families in Orario, far stronger than their current Loki and Freya Families—Zeus and Hera Families—had failed miserably in their attempts to challenge the Black Dragon.
Ais felt that she should do such a dangerous thing herself, instead of involving the Saiyan boy who had been kind to her.
"Do you want to personally avenge your enemy...?"
Upon hearing the Sword Maiden's answer, Broly didn't make any grand promises or take matters into his own hands by offering to help her get revenge.
"Alright then, Miss Ais, I'll help you from the side."
Helping each of his prospective wives do what they want is the most effective way to increase happiness levels, according to Broly's experience. Therefore, he respects the girl's desire to take revenge herself.
Sure enough, after hearing his words, the Sword Maiden's happiness level increased by one point.
"Thank you."
Ais thanked her sincerely.
"Shall we go to the Abundant Mistress's Tavern for dinner tonight?"
"it is good."
"Lefia, are you coming too?"
Broly looked at the three elven girls beside him.
"Since you don't drink, I won't go."
"Hey, you can drink it yourself."
"Since there's no one to drink with, I might as well drink alone. Besides, I have no interest in being a magic lamp."
Bert the werewolf waved his hand and left.
"I don't care whether I drink alcohol or not, but fruit juice actually tastes better."
Tiona expressed her desire to go, and Rafia had no objection.
However, they first needed to return to their clan's base to report to Loki on their mission to investigate the underground city.
. . . . .
"The immortal essence of the underground city? I didn't know there was such a thing."
Loki was somewhat surprised after hearing the report from Ais and the others who had returned.
"If the opponent's main body is in the deep zone, in the unknown area, then as we continue to explore the underground city, we will inevitably encounter the opponent in the future."
Finn stroked his chin and said.
"Well, Ais, you must be tired too. Go and rest after you take a shower. Leave these kinds of troublesome things to Finn and me."
As for the magician's request, the Hermes Familia children will likely settle accounts with him.
I'll go find that old man Uranus tonight and ask him for the information directly.
. . . . .
That evening, while Broly, along with his family's little girl and the Lolita goddess, were having dinner with Ais and the other two at the Abundant Mistress's Tavern, a conversation between the chief god and the child was taking place in the underground wine cellar of the Dionysus Familia.
“Philwiss, it seems you’re not listening to me.”
Dionysus looked at the White Witch with a scrutinizing gaze and asked.
"I'm sorry, Lord Dionysus, but there's a reason for this."
Phil Weiss explained somewhat flusteredly.
"There's a reason for this. Okay, let me hear what the reason is."
The blond heartthrob smiled as he looked at his own little elf.
"The Sword Maiden is very strong, but Mr. Broly's strength is even more terrifying..."
"Mr. Broly?"
"Ah, I mean, the leader of the Hestia Familia, they went along too."
The White Witch quickly explained, emphasizing the Saiyan boy's powerful strength in defeating the carnivorous flower army created by the White-Haired Demon on the 24th floor.
"Hearing you say that, it's understandable. However, the way you addressed the other person, could it be that after the other person captured the white-haired ghost and avenged your death, you started to develop some goodwill towards that person?"
"Ah, this..."
Phil Weiss tried to explain, but was interrupted.
"You really can't lie. Just tell me the truth. Do I look like such a strict god?"
Dionysus's words made Philweis lower her head and give a muffled "Yes." But she not only developed a liking for Broly, but also for other people who showed her kindness.
“Those people treated me differently, especially an elf girl named Lefia, who didn’t think I was a defiled being.”
The White Witch excitedly recounted her story to her own deity, as if sharing something that brought her joy with an important patriarch.
“Philwiss, it sounds like you’ve indeed met a group of kind and good children, but I’m not trying to discourage you as the supreme god.”
I just want to remind you that those people are only friendly to you because you're still the White Witch. But if your true identity (the freak's) is discovered, will they still be friendly to you?
"Ah, this..."
"Of course, I don't rule out the possibility that they will still be friendly to you, but the probability is really very small, so small that at that time, I was afraid that you would suffer new harm."
So, Phil Weiss, my dear child, before verifying this, please restrain your urge to reciprocate the kindness others show you, okay?
"Lord Dionysus..."
The White Witch's eyes were complex, filled with resentment and pleading.
"Of course, you can still stay by their side, acting as a hidden mole among them to gather enough intelligence for me."
Until the day when Orario's existing order is overturned, and the 'abnormality' in you, child, becomes the 'normal' world.
If they are willing to accept the changes that have occurred in the world, then you can become true friends and there won't be any hostility towards you because of your abnormality.
Phil Weiss, do you think I'm right?
Dionysus asked, squinting.
"Correct."
After a long silence, Phil Weiss finally managed to give a difficult reply.
"Then you should try to get along with those people."
I imagine that when I make you betray those people yourself, the struggle and pain you show will bring me even more pleasure.
The blond god thought with a twisted mind that he was a god hidden among the normal gods of Orario, whose heart revered madness and twisted chaos.
The happiness of children does not bring him pleasure; on the contrary, the cries of children in pain are the beautiful music he enjoys.
Of course, this mad side cannot be revealed to the outside world, so he always plays the role of a benevolent deity.
They are just secretly plotting things that might disrupt the order of Orario, and engaging in clandestine collaborations with other gods who are clearly part of a dark faction.
Until the nightmare that happened six years ago, one of the children in his familia was turned into a monster. When the monster returned to the familia, confessed everything, and asked him to help end its twisted life, he comforted the other with words of solace and accepted the monster.
Of course, the reason he made this choice was not because he was kind, but because Dionysus saw the possibility of truly overthrowing Orario.
That's right, it's the filthy fairy that turned Philvis into a monster. If he could borrow her power, he might be able to destroy Orario, the city he finds so irritating.
[Hmm, I'll go find Loki tomorrow, and it would be best to drag Hermes into this too, guiding those two to gradually realize the existence of the man-made labyrinth...]
As Dionysus sipped his wine, he pondered how to advance his long-brewing conspiracy to overthrow the world's capital.
Of course, Orario remained calm tonight until the conspiracy was carried out.
