DanMachi, My Members Are From Slice-of-Life Anime

"Hey hey!" Alexie jumped out, hands raised.

"I'm a Celestial Trainee with two and a half years of training! I excel in swordsmanship and fire magic! My dream is..."

As she spoke, Alexie's expression suddenly turned serious and cold, a chilling glint rising in her eyes, and a cold smile slowly curling at the corner of her lips:

"My dream is to become a hero of the night!"

The sudden change startled everyone, but after hearing the words, they realized what was happening...

Did the magic work? A satisfied smile crept across Shadow's lips.

"Great, that's the expression!"

Kaguya asked curiously at this moment:

"Props and magic? What's your purpose?"

Shadow explained:

"I'm looking for a substitute."

He paused, and after waiting for everyone to understand what he meant, he continued:

“Rives is dead. I now need a teammate to help me wipe out the other dark forces. After meeting her, I found that she has the qualifications.”

The "Stove Ash Woman" has its limits; the more she changes, the shorter the duration of her magic and the easier it is for flaws to appear.

Surprisingly, Alexie and Rives share similar characteristics and powers.

“Height, bust, waist, hips, even hair color, eye color, and even her weapon. These are not easy criteria to choose from. My original target was actually that guy Shaga. But he wasn't too keen on cross-dressing.”

The shadow explained.

Alexie then realized:

"You want me to go undercover with you?! Wow, that's so cool!"

Kaguya frowned and said:

"Logically speaking, we already have more than nine level 6 members. With this combat strength, we should be able to easily wipe out those dark factions."

There's no need to go undercover; that's too much trouble.

This thought was written all over Kaguya's face.

Shadow handed over an [ST] and said calmly:

“I have my own plan. This is what I set up in the artificial maze. You can take a look.”

Kaguya took the prop and put it on her ear. The information about the Dionysus Mech began to play on the red glass.

"A black monster, a [God Assassin] who devours gods? And a giant explosion spell that destroyed the entire Orario in one strike? This..."

Kaguya's expression was strange:

"Hey, you idiot! Any one of these plans you've made is more dangerous than those dark factions."

She advised him with an expression that said, "It's not too late to stop now."

"With our current strength, is there still any need for your plan?"

Shadow said decisively:

"Of course!"

Do you think the darkness you see before you is all there is?

Lyra understood the unspoken message in Shadow's voice: "What do you mean?"

Shadow shrugged and said in a magnetic voice:

"The labyrinth is not the end. As long as gods exist, calamities will not cease. We cannot stop what those gods call 'divine will.' The 'evil gods' who wish to plunge the mortal realm into chaos are countless."

"As far as I know, the most powerful evil god at present is Loki, who stands above you."

"What?!" Everyone was shocked.

"That Loki is also an evil god? Did you obtain some information?"

Shadow's eyes darted left and right, his mind quickly forming a story:

"These are just rumors among the gods... a little inquiry might reveal the truth. Loki is in the heavens, a god of the same type as Dionysus. She alone caused the fall of many gods; she is the goddess of [trickery] and [lies]."

"Although many gods were surprised that Loki had changed his personality in the mortal realm, but..."

As he spoke, Shadow curled the corner of his mouth: "The last person who was said that to him is still hanging around in [Machine God]."

Chapter 454 Shadow: Make it up! It's all about improvising!

Loki? It could actually be Loki?

The group exchanged bewildered glances, neither confirming nor denying the information revealed by the shadow.

Kaguya pondered to herself:

According to Shadow, the reason for creating anti-god weapons like the God of Righteousness was to guard against evil gods like Dionysus, who appear gentle and refined on the surface but are utterly wicked behind the scenes.

The starting point was not wrong; the feeling of having the evil camp's trump card in her own hands made her so excited that her scalp tingled.

However, the fact that Loki was the target of her precautions made her hesitate.

Having come from the dark ages of the past, Loki has always stood on the front lines of the resistance against darkness. Kaguya disagrees with the claim that Loki, like Dionysus, harbors some unspeakable conspiracy.

Lyra shared the same idea, and being even more cunning, she believed that even if Loki was untrustworthy, she could still trust the character of the "Hero".

Gods in the mortal realm must abide by "rules," and the power they can utilize and control is only their kin.

therefore……

Once the concept of "hero" being a good person is ingrained in our minds, then there's no need to define whether Loki is a wolf or a civilian.

So……

The problem is coming.

"What made you realize the need to prepare items powerful enough to fight against 'God'?"

Kaguya was puzzled.

Even their ultimate goal in life—the Black Dragon of Destruction—might not require the use of weapons capable of annihilating a god.

Lyra looked surprised: "Could it be that you've found some clues within the dark faction? Tell us, what's making you so uneasy?"

Hearing this...

His eyes, hidden beneath the shadow cloak, darted around, thinking:

How would I know such a thing?

I was just having so much fun with the role-playing that I didn't want to stop so easily.

Let's take a look. Who else is left in the dark faction?

Level 5 Killer Emperor, Level 5 Olivas, Level 5 Dix... these people don't need anyone else to help them. They can be easily crushed by ordinary players.

If I don't raise the boss for that silly boy Xia Jia, how can the game continue?

Waiting for a version update? Don't be ridiculous.

At this rate, it will be at least two years before the next version update. What level will the young players be by then?

But right now...

What excuse can we use to appease these righteous people?

The simple-minded, amused person, Shadow, found it quite troublesome...

"It's not the time to tell you these things yet," Shadow said evasively after a long silence.

“As expected…” Lyra nodded: “You did know something!”

Alexie, disguised as 'Rives', also spoke with a serious expression:

"We have the right to know the details, otherwise we will refuse your order."

Shadow bit his lip...

You guys are so annoying, are you going to expose my mistake today?

He racked his brains, needing to come up with a reason for his "mastermind plan"! What reason could he give...?

He began to recall many details about Shaka on the official website of the Familia Myth.

Seeing that Shadow remained silent for a long time, Lyra, who knew his personality quite well, changed her approach and asked:

"Do we just need some clues to get to the point where we can say what we know?"

Lyra is quite clever; she knows that Shadow likes to "play mysterious," which is what the gods call "chuunibyou" (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur).

But she still couldn't see through the true nature of the shadows...

therefore……

"Very well... since you've asked so sincerely, I'll mercifully tell you." Shadow sighed.

"Diavolo... do you know that name?"
