Xia Jia quickly bowed and apologized, then led Kanade out of the room. Yuki, on the other hand, dutifully went upstairs to tidy up the clutter.
Shakti rubbed his forehead: "It seems that your clan's confinement cells should be made of better materials from now on. What do you think of the hardest metal?"
That won't cost you anything...
Xia Jia scratched his face awkwardly and said, "We're from the same system, there's no need to target us like this."
The Astrea Familia possesses law enforcement authority, but unlike the Ganesha Familia, where one side represents the police, the other represents the knights-errant.
Shakti looked at him with disdain: "We were comrades-in-arms once, and I do miss the days when we maintained order in the city together. But all I see in the Astrea Familia now is trouble!"
"I'm really sorry."
After taking the 'prisoner' away, the two arrived at another conference room. In the center of the room was a long table, decorated with a row of magic stone lamps. Sitting at the table was a blond dwarf, and standing a great distance away was the dog-person Naza.
Shakti greeted politely, "It is truly impolite of you to trouble the esteemed [Hero] to make the trip amidst your busy schedule."
That man was none other than Finn, the leader of the Loki Familia: [Hero] Finn, a level 6 adventurer.
Xiao Zou is fighting Loki! That's awesome!
Xia Jia glanced at Xia Keti with a look of disdain. What's wrong? Why are you so nice to a level 6?
Immediately, he walked up with a look of longing, grabbed Finn's arm, and bowed deeply in reverence:
"So it's you, [Hero]! I've heard so much about you! I've heard many of your glorious deeds from the elders of the little people. My admiration for you is like a never-ending river."
"That senior also said that if she could, she would definitely marry you."
Finn looked embarrassed and silently withdrew his hand, asking:
"Is that so? May I know the name of that fellow countryman? To be called a senior by an adventurer like you, he must be an elite among our people."
Finn became interested. He was over 50 and still single. Although he had many suitors, he preferred to marry a courageous girl from his own tribe.
In this way, his descendants can inherit his name and lead the tribe.
Hearing Finn's words...
Shaga said in a serious tone, "Her name is Leila."
“Lyra…” Finn’s expression froze as he recalled a pink-haired girl he was reluctant to remember.
"You are……"
"You haven't introduced yourself yet. I am the current leader of the Astrea Familia. My name is Shaka."
"Asteria..."
Finn bit his thumb... What the heck? Damn it, my finger is starting to hurt.
Finn's thumb, which always aches when it encounters danger, has saved him from danger countless times, but now it's starting to ache slightly.
This left Finn feeling somewhat bewildered.
"Sure enough, I had a bad feeling about getting involved with that woman... Is it the same even if I die?" Finn muttered uncertainly.
Seeing that the two were having a pleasant conversation, Shakti took the initiative to speak: "Then let's begin the discussion about the 'divine attack' case."
All parties took their seats.
Finn sat down in his seat with the air of Commander Ikari: "I heard the general situation from Loki."
“Originally, this was not a big deal, or rather, the main responsibility lay with Loki.”
Knowing that Finn had a "but," Shaja didn't rush to speak.
really.
“But…” Finn relaxed his body, closed his eyes, leaned back in his chair, and said with a headache in his eyes:
Loki's exact words were: "I've got my eye on that girl. Double the Ais's carbon, I'm going to enjoy the pleasure of having her on both sides, hehehe. So, Finn, get her over here!"
Finn looked up and glanced at Tachibana Kanade, who looked completely bewildered, as if she wasn't the focus of the incident.
She was engrossed in eating her potato balls, while the little girl next to her was actually wiping her mouth!
It's like seeing Rivera.
Finn was incredibly annoyed: "When I saw this child, the first thought that came to my mind was, 'Ah, so that's how it is.'"
Regarding this…
"So, Commander Finn, you mean you don't actually want to 'escalate' this matter?" Shaga grasped the key point.
Finn nodded: "I know perfectly well that Loki is just being silly."
"But as a fellow leader, you should know that although we leaders have a certain amount of authority, when it comes to 'divine will,' we are actually quite passive."
"so?"
Finn smiled and closed one eye: "So, could you please give me a reason for not starting the war game, Commander Xia?"
"Any excuse will do. Let me fob off Loki."
That's a very reasonable request.
But what reason could possibly justify making a top-tier faction god, who has three level 6 members and multiple level 6 members, abandon his obsession?
Xia Jia lowered his head and thought for a moment, then said calmly, "As for reasons, there are some."
"Oh?" Finn was also quite curious about what kind of reason Shaga would give.
"Similar statements like 'we'll fight to the death' or something like that are too far-fetched and won't do."
"of course not!"
Xia Jia's lips slowly curled up as she leaned back in her chair and said clearly, "I forgot to tell you."
"The Astrea Familia is currently under the jurisdiction of the 'School District'."
Finn was taken aback: "School district?"
Shaga nodded: "Yes, while we were still staying in Orario in the school district, our entire family should belong to the Astrea class."
The school district is composed of multiple gods; if it is the Baldr clan, then it is Baldrban.
Shaga continued, "As you know, the 'school district' champions absolute freedom; students' choices of their future paths must be respected."
"If you want to use force... I don't think Professor Leon will agree."
Finn's brows relaxed, and he smiled. "Ah, that's a perfect answer."
He stroked his chin, feigning deep thought, and said:
"Level 7, perhaps still the strongest in the world. This is indeed a difficult situation. In addition, the students in the school district are the type who can be persuaded. Using force is indeed not in accordance with the rules."
Analyzing the situation on his own, Finn confirmed, "Well, since he's a member of the school district, it shouldn't be a problem to let Loki persuade him himself, right?"
Shaka nodded: "Of course, the school district is free. At least during the year and a half that I'm staying in Orario within the school district, I won't stop any Familia from 'enticing' me.
This is why Shaga wanted to join the school district!
Chapter 103 I am the man destined to become the King of Heroes
With the school district acting as a buffer, even the Loki Familia cannot forcibly attack the Astrea Familia.
After all, the school district officially allows all families to recruit, and everyone is in a relatively fair environment. Why should you resort to force?
As for a year and a half from now, Shaka felt that with his own development and the expansion of his clan, his ability value should not be too weak.
Leaving aside others, just Yuuki and Shadow, two members with similar precocious abilities, would have been able to steadily advance to level 5 or even higher in a year and a half, even without any so-called destiny or scheming.
At that time, Xia and Jia will naturally have the confidence to pull each other along.
After persuading Finn, the two of them, along with Tachibana Kanade and Naza, left the detention center with Shakti's expression that said, "Don't come again next time."
Naza seemed to understand that Tachibana Kanade wouldn't easily convert to a different religion.
Slightly disappointed, Xia Jia approached with a smile: "Miss Nazha, please wait a moment."
"What's up……?"
"Are you interested in uniting with our clan?" Xia Jia coaxed gently.
"I have a general understanding of your clan's situation. There's probably no chance of persuading you to switch clans, so why don't we join forces?"
"Right now, you're the only member of the Mih clan left, and I heard you're still in debt?"
"Why don't you join forces with us? We can help you search for materials that can be used to make medicine, or complete some less common tasks for you."
Naza was quite tempted. The Astrea Familia was a name that carried countless honors, and being associated with such a family would prevent her from being bullied by other families.
only……
"What are the conditions..."
Naza doesn't believe that free lunches come out of nowhere.
Xia Jia slowly spoke: "Of course it's medicine making. I imagine your medicine making skills aren't very high right now, Miss Nazha. We can provide the materials, but we also need you to make various potions for free."
"Of course, we will not pursue the losses from failures; consider it an investment in advance."
"Also, if possible, I hope you can take some time to teach Kozou pharmacology. We may send more dependents to join us in the future; you can treat them as 'exchange students.'"
Shaga's plan was to provide training materials for new pharmacists in exchange for the benefit of producing medicines for free in the future.
