"Strange ....."

A bewildered muttering sounded softly in the corner of the extravagant room, and no one could hear it.

Freya stood in front of the window, with a pair of beautiful eyes, staring at a corner of the city, but her eyes were full of doubt.

The fight between Rieg and Allen, Freya saw it all.

In other words, she observed the development of Rieger's fight with Allen in some special way, in a way that was close to "seeing".

This was a tool that only Freya could master, and even the rest of the gods could not do.

So, even though the place where Rieg and Eren fought was a long way away, Freya could still "see" what was happening.

But because of this, Freya was shocked and suspicious.

"It's the first time I've seen a soul like that."

Freya's good-looking brows furrowed.

The goddess of beauty, Freya, has a very special pair of eyes.

It is called the "Insight Eye", an eye that can see the essence of the soul of a person in the lower realm.

Freya, the goddess of beauty, was born with such a pair of eyes, so this is not a forbidden divine power, but a talent, a trait, which is basically useless in the heavenly realm.

However, in the Nether, with such eyes, Freya was able to perceive the possibilities of the Nether people more keenly than any other god.

As long as the souls of children (nethers) can be observed, then Freya can judge the potential of this person based on the brilliance of the soul.

After all, anyone who is a hero, but anyone who has the weapon of a hero, must have a brilliant soul, and it is impossible to be as mediocre as a mortal.

In the heavenly realm, Freya also relied on this to grasp the color of the soul of the ascended person (the dead) one step ahead of any god, and took the object of her affection as her own collection and put it into her bosom.

Those "collectibles" are what the Nether people call heroes.

Therefore, the Freya clan will become one of the strongest clans in Orali, on par with the Loki clan, and even better than the Loki clan in some places, because the main god of this clan can recruit children with extraordinary potential one step in advance, so as to grow the Freya clan step by step.

Freya is also very fond of children with a radiant soul, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she loves such children deeply.

In light of this, after Rig showed his unusual potential, Freya set her sights on him almost immediately.

However, Riege's soul surprised this beautiful god who could see through the essence of every person in the lower realm.

"Isn't it a dazzling brilliance or an unusual color, but a difference in shape?"

The soul seen by the insight eye of the god of beauty is such a thing that has never been seen before.

In the past, the souls of the people of the Nether fell into Freya's eyes, either in different colors or with different degrees of brilliance.

Freya chooses whether or not to incorporate the "color" and "brilliance" according to her own preference.

To this day, Freya has seen the colors and brilliance of the souls of various heroes.

Some people have unique colors.

Someone blooms with brilliant brilliance.

These are the things that Freya loves and loves.

Rieger, on the other hand, is different.

In Freya's discerning eyes, Rige's soul had neither extraordinary color nor brilliant brilliance, but was only twisted like a whirlpool.

No, that's not a whirlpool.

That's — "hole."

A "hole" that has no color, no brilliance, is completely invisible, twists and spins like a black hole, as if it can swallow everything inside, ferment, merge, and mix inside.

The "hole" seemed to tell Freya not to see what was inside it, nor to judge the value of "it" casually, blocking Freya's sight from the outside.

From that "hole", Freya could see, or feel, only one emotion.

It is an obsession that does not want to accept any interference from outside things.

It is a future that does not want to be scrutinized and judged by others.

This is the essence of Riger's soul.

Is he rejecting the hand that others have extended to him, and silently expressing to others that his future can only be decided by himself and chosen by himself?

This is indeed an obsession.

But it's also.

If it can be casually observed and observed by others, then such a future will actually be fixed from that moment on, and it will be limited to the scope of "seeing".

This kind of future is not acceptable to Riger.

"That's interesting."

After the suspicion, Freya became interested.

"If you don't want to be seen by me (God), and you don't want to be judged by others (the world), you are persistent and twisted and constantly rotating, what kind of existence do you want to become?"

Freya suddenly had a longing.

Longing to see what is being born in that "hole".

"I see, this is the unknown that the gods (we) have been pursuing."

Freya smiled.

Laughing all over the country.

Smile beautifully.

"Looks like we're going to have a mess with Loki this time." Freya muttered, "Even if it's me, the thought of having a falling out with that Loki still feels a little scary." ”

You know, that one once set off the end of the heavens, and deceived the gods with trickery several times, causing the gods to kill each other, and almost killed a real god of mischief from Ragnarok.

Even Freya would have some scruples at the thought of falling out with that evil god.

"It's also a pleasure, though."

"Take your time."

"Anyway, I'm not in a hurry."

Freya smiled and turned to leave.

She also had to go to comfort the kitten who was accidentally injured because of her bad taste.

......

By this time, night had completely fallen.

Covered in blood, Li Ge took advantage of the night and walked into the Dusk Pavilion under the shocked gaze of the members guarding the door.

He wanted to go straight back to his room without attracting anyone's attention.

Unfortunately, he didn't get his wish.

"Rieger?"

With a surprised voice, someone actually returned to the clan with Li Ge.

Rieger stopped, somewhat helpless in his heart.

“..... What's wrong with you? ”

I saw that the female swordsman with dazzling blond hair was fully armed and came back from outside, just happened to meet Li Ge who was about to enter the mansion, and saw his bloodstained body, and his transparent golden eyes were full of surprise and solemnity.

"Ace."

Although Rig was helpless, he turned around and faced Ace.

"You're going to the dungeon?"

Rig asked as he glanced at Ace, who was heavily armed.

"Hmm." Ace nodded and said, "After you go out with the leader, I will go to the dungeon." ”

This girl is still so hard-working, so motivated, obviously stimulated by Riege.

"Be careful, then." Li Ge smiled slightly and said, "If Rivilia finds out, then you will be miserable." ”

Hearing this, Ace couldn't help but shrink her head.

What this girl fears most is that she has always been by her side like her mother, has always guarded her growth, and has always taken care of her Rivelia.

And Riveria didn't miss her less, and was dissatisfied with her not recuperating at home after the end of the expedition, and going into the dungeon twice in three days, and drilling into it for a whole day.

It's a good thing to be motivated, and it's a good thing to work hard, but Ace is far more motivated and hardworking than others, to the point where people have to worry about whether she will mess around and get tired.

In a way, Ace and Rieg are indeed the same kind of people.

Both of them are people who want to become stronger as quickly as possible, and they do not hesitate to risk everything, risk their lives, and desperately strive for the opportunity to become stronger bit by bit.

In this case, it can be seen from the fact that Rieg usually messes up that Ace's mess is definitely better than Riege's.

Because of this, in the past, Ace was already a problem child in the Loki clan that caused headaches for the leaders of the camp, and now there is another Rige, and the number of times Riveria has to worry about it this day is probably enough to exhaust her.

Of course, there are still some differences between Ace and Riger.

That is, Rieg is self-aware, but insists on following his own path, while Ace is a little cowardly and a little weak-hearted, and has always been afraid of being preached by Riveria.

"Don't change the subject." Ace stared at Rieg and said, "Are you hurt?" ”

“..... Sort of. Li Ge pursed his lips and said, "It's just a small injury, it's been healed." ”

Well, an injury that can be healed with a panacea, it should be considered a minor injury.

"Liar." Ai showed no mercy in exposing Lige's lies, and said, "You have a very bad face, obviously you are seriously injured. ”

That's where the flaw lies.

The elixir can certainly stop the bleeding and heal the injury, but the pale face caused by the loss of a large amount of blood is not so easy to hide.

That's exactly what Ace cared about.

She really couldn't imagine what kind of danger she would encounter to be seriously injured with her current strength.

If it's just the customary way to go into a dungeon and kill monsters, it's unlikely to turn out like this.

Unless, Rieger went deeper down the 37th floor, or ran into an anomalous state of affairs.

But the depths below the 37th floor can't go back and forth in the same day, and if an abnormal situation appears, it will be reported to the guild as soon as possible, and then it will be heard by the adventurers, but Ace has not heard this kind of news.

Sum up.....

"Got someone else?" Ace whispered, "A strong enemy? ”

Rieger stopped talking.

This woman, who looks cold and dumbfounded, turns out to be so smart?

Li Ge could only nod and said, "Don't tell others, I want to solve it myself." ”

“..... Well. ”

Ace was silent for a moment, then nodded in agreement.

It's just that, from her speechless eyes, Rieg can see that Ace is very entangled.

This girl seems to be cold, but in fact she is a little ignorant of the world, obviously she doesn't know how to deal with the current situation.

Seeing this, Rig involuntarily reached out and touched Ace's head.

Ace was stunned, and also involuntarily raised her head and looked at Rige.

Meeting Ace's eyes, Rieg smiled slightly.

"Don't worry, I'm a person who doesn't like to lose."

Hearing this, Ace lowered her head in silence.

The girl's face is covered by bangs, slightly red.
