Soman Shuchiin, starting from Fulilian to become a magician

"Money! Divinely crafted weapons aren't cheap, especially for something this special. I'm not responsible for the materials, but I'll charge 6 million faris for the design and construction."

My best friend has been eating and drinking for free, and it seems like she is becoming decadent. Isn't it time to let her become self-reliant?

"No problem. When do you want the money?"

Ye Shanming agreed immediately.

"I'll pay you after you successfully build it. Come to my shop in three days to find the specific materials you'll need, and I'll tell you then."

Hephaestus was in a very good mood as he didn't expect to get a big order by participating in the God's Conference. His relationship with Ye Shanming also began to become closer.

In the banquet hall, although most of the gods had no interest in Ye Shanming, there were still two pairs of eyes fixed on him.

The goddess of beauty Freya sat alone on a chair, tasting the wine, her eyes falling on Ye Shanming. There was a large empty space around her, and only the pig-man strongman stood faithfully behind her.

Her eyes can see the essence of a person's soul, even gods are no exception, but in her sight, Ye Shanming's soul, in addition to the essence of a god, also has human colors.

"The essence of gods and humans coexists. No wonder Uranus took the initiative to come forward. Do you want to make contact?"

Freya shook the wine glass in her hand, and the pigman ignored the mumbling of their own god, like a statue.

The banquet did not end until late at night, and the gods left with their most outstanding children.

Ye Shanming also took Lilyluka away. He was very satisfied with the harvest tonight.

After negotiating a large order for the divine weapons with Hephaestus, he approached Soma, who was drinking alone in a corner, and proposed converting Lililuka's family.

The god of wine, Soma, looks no different from an ordinary shut-in boy. In response to Ye Shanming's proposal, he simply gave up Lilyluka's clan affiliation.

"Ye Shanming, wait."

When Ye Shanming was about to leave the gate of the Dusk Mansion, Loki hurriedly chased out and called out to him.

"Anything else?"

Loki gasped for breath. After suppressing his divine power, the so-called god was no different from an ordinary person. After resting for a while, he told his purpose.

"I don't know why you're still so powerful even though your divine power is suppressed, but that's not important."

"Could you spare some time to help train Ai Si every afternoon for a week?"

As Loki spoke, he glanced at Ye Shanming with a look of resentment on his face, and remembered that he had paid a large sum of money to the tavern owner Mia the night before.

"why?"

Ye Shanming was a little puzzled: "Isn't your clan leader Finn very strong? Can't he train Aisi?"

"We are doing this for Aisi's child."

Loki sighed softly, thinking of Aisi's behavior over the past two days, feeling quite helpless:

"Aisi always felt that her abilities were improving too slowly, and she'd always wanted to find someone strong enough to train her. After you knocked her out the night before last, she decided on you."

"She didn't even go to the dungeon these past two days. She was just looking for you in Orario."

To avoid Ye Shanming's rejection, Loki held up three fingers, suppressing his heartache and saying, "No matter what the effect, 300 million faris."

“Actually, I’m not doing this for the money…”

Ye Shanming subconsciously wanted to refuse, but then his eyes caught a glimpse of a golden figure.

Ai Si had quietly hidden at the corner of the gate and secretly peeked at him. When she heard his words, a hint of disappointment appeared in her eyes.

"Never mind, deal."

After saying that, Ye Shanming did not stay any longer and took Lilyluka and Mercury Lamp back to his base. That night, he converted Lilyluka.

A drop of blood as red as a gem fell on Lilyluka's smooth back, and the family pattern of the god of wine Soma was covered by the pattern of wings.

When Ye Shanming handed her the paper with her ability values ​​printed on it, Lilyluka finally felt that she had successfully escaped from the Soma clan, and she couldn't help but hug the mercury lamp and cry.

The latter's face was full of disgust, but he still did not push her away forcibly. He closed his eyes and endured it silently.

God Hermes, wearing a travel hat, hummed a little tune and returned to his room under the disdainful gaze of his clan leader, Yasfi.

"Oh, now that the Gods' Meeting is over, shouldn't I leave Orario and go see how Zeus is preparing?"

Hermes took off his travel hat and hung it on the hanger. Suddenly, he found a piece of white paper lying quietly on his desk.

The smile on his face disappeared instantly, and he picked up the paper with a serious expression.

There was only a magical image copied on it, which was the scene of Ye Shanming asking Chanis to contact his informant, but he died suddenly and inexplicably. The image was even considerate enough to leave half of Chanis's face, which had turned into black and ash.

Hermes folded the paper expressionlessly, stuffed it into his breast pocket, and lay down on the bed.

In the training ground of the Dusk Hall, the sound of weapons clashing was endless. Ye Shanming stood in place, and no matter how Ai Si attacked, the long sword in his hand could always block it steadily.

"Wake up."

Ai Si moaned softly, and a light green breeze wrapped around her body. Both her speed and strength increased significantly, and she could even fly for a short time with the help of the breeze.

For a moment, the attack became much more fierce. She bit her lips tightly and did not hold back at all. It was more like a fight to the death than training.

"Captain, how's the training going?"

Werewolf Bert walked over from a distance with his hands on the back of his head, bored. Except for Finn, most of the high-level adventurers of Loki's family gathered here, watching the fight between the two people in the training ground.

After the divine meeting ended last night, Loki suddenly ordered them not to explore the dungeon in the next few days. With nothing to do, they could only watch the fun here.

"Aisi is still a little too impatient."

Finn leaned against the wall, crossed his arms, and shook his head slightly.

Just as he said, the more the attack made no progress, and even failed to force Ye Shanming back a step, the more anxious Ai Si became, and she couldn't help but activate the maximum power of her own magic Wind Spirit Sprint.

"Sweep it up."

But before she could finish her chant, two magic circles appeared around her, and magic chains shot out from them, interrupting her movements. Helplessly, Ais could only give up the idea and concentrate on avoiding the chains' pursuit.

"Lefiya, come too."

While controlling the magic chain to attack, Ye Shanming did not forget to look at Lefiya who was standing nearby and watching.

"I?"

Lefiya was a little surprised. Ye Shanming nodded, and directly wrapped a magic chain around her arm and threw her into the field.

"Before Fulilian left Orario, she asked me to help train you."

Ye Shanming explained, without giving her time to react, and included her in the attack. The sound of fighting in the field suddenly became endless.

Until dusk, the setting sun stretched the shadows, and Lefiya was covered in dust and dirt, without any elf elegance. She lay on the ground in a spread-eagle position, gasping for breath.

Ai Si supported her knees with her hands, her long golden hair was wet with sweat and stuck to her face in clumps. She looked at Ye Shanming with eyes full of unwillingness to admit defeat.

He barely raised his sword and attacked Ye Shanming again. The latter deflected the weak sword with a flick of his finger and slashed Ai Si's neck with a knife.

Ai Si immediately lost consciousness and fell into his arms.

"This kid is really trying his best."

Loki took Aisi from Ye Shanming's arms. His right hand was ready to move, and he reached out to Aisi's buttocks dishonestly, but was directly knocked away by Ye Shanming.

"whispering sound."

Loki looked unhappy, but he finally calmed down and talked about business:

"Right now, rumors are circulating in Orario that you colluded with the dark faction and killed Chanis, the leader of the Soma clan. Is that true?"

Ye Shanming raised his eyebrows. He had stayed in the Dusk Pavilion all day and really didn't know the news.

"Who spread it?"

"I heard that the news first came from the Hermes family, but Hermes didn't respond directly, and the guild didn't take any action either."

Loki looked at him sternly. "Although most gods don't believe this because the great god Uranus stood up for you last night, there are still a few who want to cause trouble for you."

"Especially Apollo. He announced today that he wants to play war games with you and return you, a god of the dark faction, to heaven, making you a hero of Orario."

"Framed?"

Ye Shanming seemed to be thinking about something. The dark faction was hiding in the dark, and he could only counter their moves in the open. This was too passive, and he had to find a way to solve the problem.

Seeing him like this, Loki called out to Lefiya, who was lying exhausted on the ground, intending to help Ais back to her room.

"Anyway, the great god Uranus has also asked me to investigate the maze these days. The guild suspects that the god of death Thanatos is hiding in the deep layers. If you need help, you can always come to me."

After leaving the Mansion of Dusk, Ye Shanming discovered that what Loki said was true, and the situation was even more serious than he said.

He originally thought that this news was only spread among the gods, but he didn't expect that all the adventurers in Orario would hear about it. In just one day, he, a strange god who had only been in Orario for three days, became known to everyone.

Along the way, any adventurer who saw him couldn't help but show an expression of hatred on his face.

If it weren't for the fact that it was a serious crime for adventurers to attack gods, and if the guild hadn't declared Ye Shanming to be a member of the dark faction, I'm afraid someone would have rushed up and tried to send him back to heaven by now.

In the central square, Lilyluka was carrying a large bag filled with magic stones dropped by the mercury lamp after it killed monsters. When she saw Ye Shanming's figure, she hurried over.

She had also heard the rumors circulating among the adventurers in the dungeon today.

"Lord Hayama Akira..."

"It's okay, don't worry."

Ye Shanming touched her head. Lilyluka couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when she saw that he was the same as usual and not affected at all.

"Let's go have dinner."

The two of them, along with a mercury lamp, completely ignored the fearful and malicious looks around them and walked towards the bountiful hostess.

"welcome."

The goddess of beauty Freya transformed into Xier and stood at the door to greet the guests. When she saw Ye Shanming coming, a smile appeared on her face and she led the two into the store.

"What do you two guests need, meow?"

The orange-haired cat girl Anya walked over happily and asked Ye Shanming, seemingly not affected by the rumors in Orarium at all.

Not only her, but all the staff in the tavern did not believe the rumors. Even the quiet elf clerk Liu nodded at him as he passed by, showing his kindness.

"One macaroni, one signature dish, and a glass of milk."

Ye Shanming glanced at today's menu and ordered casually. Since Orario did not have lactic acid bacteria, he could only order a glass of milk for Mercury Lamp as a substitute.

"Okay, I'll be right there, meow."

Anya trotted away, Ye Shanming and Lilyluka waited quietly, but the arrival of a group of uninvited guests broke the original peace.

"Ye Shanming, let's play war games!"

Apollo, with an olive wreath on his head, stood in front of the table and threw a white glove in front of Ye Shanming.

Chapter 9 War Games & Foreign Aid.

"why?"

In response to Ye Shanming's question, Apollo spoke frankly, not hiding his true thoughts at all:

"As long as I defeat you, I will be the hero who saved Orario. Then, the lovely children will surely come to join my clan out of admiration."

"Fool."

Ryu, carrying Akira Hayama's food order, came over and made a soft comment before kicking the Apollo Familia member in the shin.

"Get out of the way."

On a tall building in the distance, a figure was shrouded in darkness. He retracted his gaze and drew the curtains. The room suddenly became dark, with only the crystal on the desk emitting a faint glow.

"Gods are like this. Even in the lower realms, they do not hide their desires at all. Human morality is completely unable to restrain them. They are born to be the source of evil."

"As expected, it would be better to completely destroy this city where all kinds of gods gather. What do you think?"

The figure standing in the corner remained silent, only the faint light of the crystal fell on the ends of the gray hair.

Inside the store, Ye Shanming picked up the white gloves that fell in front of him and threw them back to Apollo. The gloves made a crisp sound as they made close contact with his handsome face.

"you……"

Apollo covered his red face and glared at him. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Ye Shanming's cold voice:

"I accepted."

Apollo was overjoyed and immediately ignored the fact that Ye Shanming slapped him in the face. He quickly told him about the war game he had been planning with his friends for a whole day.

"It's an offensive and defensive battle. If I win, you must return to the Celestial Realm in front of everyone in Orario, and your family members will become mine."

"Okay, then my conditions are the same. You return me to the heavens, and all your clans will be disbanded."
