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

The Shadow faction's power was indeed a bit weak. With Alexie's help, he could have more status and influence. Thinking of this, he raised his head:

"Why don't you all go along? Surround their cadres directly and sideline the power structure?"

Kaguya imagined the scene of three level 5s trembling in fear, surrounded by eight level 6s, and couldn't help but feel sorry for them.

Shadow did indeed invite them to join the Shadow Garden, but Kaguya still had reservations...

Immediately, she got down to business:

"By the way, about Shadow... he told me some information about the Dark Faction, and I want to confirm its authenticity."

"intelligence?"

"Information regarding Diablo, the Despair Demon God, on the 72nd floor of the dungeon."

"Pfft!" Xia Jia spat out the soda she had just taken a sip of...

"What did you say?!"

Kaguya's expression was strange: "Diavolo..."

Then, Kaguya recounted the Shadow's original words, along with the historical documents she knew.

"As expected... was that man just talking nonsense? Looks like next time we meet, I'll have to shove his head into a cesspool..."

Hey, girl. Your true nature is showing.

Shaga coughed and chuckled awkwardly, "Well... the information isn't entirely accurate, but..."

"but what?"

Xia Jia's expression was strange: "That kid is quite odd. There's a high chance that what he says will come true..."

Kaguya's eyes widened: "A prophecy?!"

Xia Jia covered her face: "No, it might just be a bad omen."

In fact, Shadow's speculation is not entirely impossible.

Dungeons are inherently a huge, unknown collection of entities, and the floor masters are even more special beings.

First was Goliath, the monster in the Bible that symbolized a giant.

Next is Amphispina, which symbolizes the two-headed serpent from Greek mythology.

Udaius, on the other hand, is a representative of Greek mythology, namely the "earth-born man".

Next is Balor, the "One-Eyed Demon King" from Celtic mythology.

Therefore, it wouldn't be surprising if Fenrir, a being from Norse mythology with the ability to devour gods, appeared afterward.

According to current information, the Fallen Fairy Spirit was created because a special monster devoured a large number of Fairy Spirits, resulting in a unique individual.

As a manifestation of a god, Fenrir's devouring of a god could potentially lead to its own evolution.

In addition to the information obtained from Alfia, the terrain beyond floor 60 is the "Thousand-Colored Talia Ice Garden." Based on this, Fenrir is quite likely to be the floor master.

Chapter 456 The Logic of the World, Speculations about the End Times.

It must be said that, setting aside the actual situation, the Shadow's jinx is indeed incredibly powerful.

For someone who knows nothing about the deeper aspects, the truthfulness is at least 90%.

The Five Great Seals, the Gates of Hell, the Guardian Hounds, and the Demon God Diablo—all are plausible speculations.

After the 50th floor, the maze is designated as the deepest level, and beyond that lies either an abyss or hell.

The 49th floor's Balor is already known as the "One-Eyed Demon King," so it's not surprising that a "Demon God" has appeared there.

But Shaka, who knows the underlying design logic of the DanMachi world, actually has other guesses.

Let's start with the matter related to the Fallen Fairy...

Its true nature is Fenrir's speculation, and it is indeed very likely to be true.

As is well known, Loki's Familia, representing Norse mythology, has many titles derived from mythological monsters, such as "Jormungandr the Angry Serpent" and "Hela the Nine Demon Princesses," etc.

Moreover, at this point in time, many of the deities' families were involved in mythology to some extent.

For this reason, we often associate Fenrir, Loki's son, with the werewolf Bert.

But it is clear that Bert is not Fenrir but Hati, the son of Fenrir, a giant wolf that chases the moon.

In mythology, Fenrir, whose role is even more prominent than that of Hati, has no reason not to be recorded in the clan's name.

Because of this conjecture, Shaka speculated that Fenrir might have been made into the name of some monster.

But compared to Fenrir, Shaga believes that the floor master of the 60th floor might be Skul, who is another son of Fenrir.

In contrast to [Hati], it is a giant wolf that chases the [sun], and its yearning for the sky echoes that of the fallen fairy spirit.

The word "Skool" can also be translated as "Fenrir".

But that's just a naming issue...

That is to say...

"The opponent on the 60th floor, and possibly a giant wolf monster with the power to 'devour'?"

Kaguya blinked: "Giant wolf?"

Xia Jia rubbed his temples:

"Shadow has really given me a lot of inspiration. Yes, I'm more than 70% certain that the monster on the 60th floor that devoured the immortal essence and created clones is a giant wolf! It's quite possible that it's the floor master."

"The remaining 30% of the margin for error will be placed on the characteristics of the Fallen Fairy Essence—plants."

Kaguya nodded: "At our pace, it shouldn't be too long to break through that floor."

Xia Jia touched his nose, not daring to look directly at him, and said, "If I had to say, our clan already has the means to establish itself over there."

The guild's recommended strength standard for conquering floor 61 is an alliance of Loki and Freya's Familia.

That is, one level 7 and ten level 6.

The Astrea Familia seems to meet the criteria perfectly.

"Therefore, it is absolutely necessary to begin pre-planning and speculating on information regarding the 'Thousand Azure Talia Ice Garden' from now on."

The two didn't hide their conversation from others. After listening to everything, Lyra asked:

"Is there any other information about the labyrinth in that area?"

Shaga nodded: "Yes. I learned quite a bit from Alfia."

Lyra found the blind spot: "So, back then, Hera and Zeus's Familia didn't have any information about the floor master either?"

Shaga snapped his fingers:

"That's the crux of the matter."

Neither Zeus nor Hera encountered the "floor master" after the 60th floor.

Kaguya frowned: "Is it because of insufficient logistics?"

"That is indeed one of the reasons."

Unlike fighting monsters on the surface, the biggest problem at the end of the dungeon is still resupply.

Food, equipment, and medicine.

The deeper you go, the more difficult it becomes to keep up with this kind of supply.

The 58-story dragon can destroy most supply vehicles, so supplies must be carried by humans. But that's only enough for a small squad for a week or two at most. Plus, given the icy environment, cold-weather gear will also be needed.

Considering issues like returning, fully exploring the entire map of the Abyss, which is several times the size of Orario, would take far more than just one or two weeks.

but……

Logistics are not a problem for us.

Xia Jia said, "But I think the reason I didn't encounter any thread starters might be related to the 'absence' of thread starters, or that thread starters are 'sealed'."

"Based on previous speculations, if the floor owner is 'Fenrir,' then it's very likely that it's chained somewhere."

Of course, this chain is just a concept; it could be frozen or something else entirely.

Xia Jia paused for a moment, then said, "We can infer from the fact that 'she' only sent out celestial clones and didn't act herself that 'she' might be in a state where she can't move."

Shaga extracted fragments from myths and legends from his memory:

"After they successfully devour the sun and moon, the Ragnarok war will begin, and Fenrir, who was bound, will be freed."

Kaguya pondered the meaning of those words:

What does Ragnarok refer to?

Xia Jia took a sip of her soda and said:

"When Fenrir's 'sons' swallow the sun and the moon, the stars will disappear from the sky, the earth will shake violently, trees will be uprooted, mountains will collapse, and all bonds will break."

"The so-called Ragnarok is roughly a calamity like this. If I had to seek something specific, I think it would be the 'black dragon.'"

This may explain why killing the Fallen Fairy's true form is a higher priority than killing the Black Dragon.

Leila crossed her legs and said nonchalantly:
