Chapter 894 Gods’ Descent


    Yoruichi and Serafall were in Freya''s room on the top floor of Babel once again to update them on the current situation of the Expedition team and to rest for a bit from monitoring them.


    "Aside from the good things that happened with Line and Tenestra''s addition, it also caused the other Familias to be concerned, huh..." Loki muttered while going through the report.


    "That''s to be expected. Everyone thought that Magic was tied to their Level and herees someone who can easily use it despite being a Level 1." Freyamented while looking down on the city of Orario from her ss window, "For their whole life, they''ve believed in Levels. The higher it is, the stronger they are. So the moment they saw a crack in that faith and argument, they started panicking and lost sight of their futures. Thankfully, however, my children could easily deal with that."


    Loki threw the report down the table and leaned back with a sigh, "That''s only natural. What they believed in from the start wasn''t their strength nor their Level, but you. Their blind faith and love exempted them from this."


    "That really sounds impressive." Serafall nodded in agreement, "But with a cult-like mindset, as strong as their minds are, they are also the first one to fall when their belief is broken."


    "Speaking from experience?", asked Yoruichi.


    "They are a pain to deal with, but easy enough once you find the crux to their belief."


    Freya wanted to defend her children some more, but small tremors in the earth had suddenly begun. Everyone became silent and stayed in their positions for a few seconds until the tremors started getting stronger and the bookshelves in Freya''s room were about to topple.


    "I''m reinforcing the tower!" Serafall dered with a Magic Circle appearing beneath her feet and extending out of the tower.


    Even then, the shaking only continued to get stronger and Serafall had to extend her reinforcement throughout the entire city, the nearby fishing town of Melen, and the newly constructed factory, research, and development building for Magic Vehicles.


    Yoruichi stood up from her seat and caught Freya who was about to lose her bnce, "Thank you."


    But she ignored her and started muttering with a serious expression, "An earthquake... But what''s below us-"


    Her thought process, however, was interrupted by a Magic Circle appearing on the table, disying a hologram of Medusa, "Three Gods have descended. We will move to resolve the issue as originally nned."


    At that moment, a wave of Divine Power that came from the west suddenly washed over the entire region, jolting all the Divines within it.


    "W-what was that!?" Loki stood up in panic while trying to figure out who''s Divine Power was unleashed and why it was having such a massive effect.


    Freya, with a simrly serious expression, looked at Yoruichi who had an amused one, "What do you know about this?"


    Yoruichi escorted Freya to take a seat while answering, "I don''t want to repeat my exnation so we should wait for our guest first before starting. Besides, the stage is still being prepared."


    Loki and Freya looked at each and gave up. Since they''re so at ease of what''s happening, they didn''t want to look like paranoid individuals, "Just make sure that those in the Dungeon are safe."


    "I just activated a barrier for their camp. But if they choose to venture outside despite the dangers, it''ll be up to them.", replied Yoruichi.


    "Well, I guess that''s fine."


    A few minutester, a group of out-of-breath Deities came to Freya''s room with Hephaestus in the lead, "Freya! Loki! We have to pull them out of the Dungeon now! Where''s-..."


    What the group saw was Loki, Freya, Yoruichi, and Serafall just chilling with some alcohol and some fresh raw fish.


    Loki very much liked the expression they were making and greeted them with a shit-eating grin, "Yo~ Were you lot running a marathon? Some really weird timing, I must say. And if you''re here to invite me, I refuse."


    A nerve visibly bulged in Hephaestus'' forehead as she stomped her way in, "Marathon!? Do you still have the time to joke around!? Are you not aware of what''s going on!? Some idiot... No... Several idiots decided to go against the pact and came down with their real bodies! The Dungeon surely won''t stay quiet with them down here!"


    Following Hephaestus were the rest of the Gods that agreed to the expedition namely, Hermes, Takemikazuchi, Miach, and Ganesha. All of them had a fed-up expression.


    "Is there anything you want to drink?" Freya, meanwhile, calmly stood up and went towards her wine shelf, "Ah, don''t answer that. I only have wines."


    Seeing this, Hermes sighed and took off his hat while patting Hephaestus'' shoulder, "Let''s sit down for now. Loki and Freya wouldn''t be acting like this if the situation were that grave." He then looked at Yoruichi and Serafall with a serious expression, "And from the looks of it, they were waiting for our arrival. Let''s hear what they have to say."


    Takemiazuchi, Miach, and Ganesha still haveplicated expressions because they still didn''t know the fate of their children, but they didn''t have a choice but to nod and follow Hermes'' lead.


    "Please don''t worry about the expedition. We already made sure that they''d have a safe point if this were to happen. Unless they wanted to brave the dangers, nothing bad would''ve happened to them." Yoruichi first addressed everyone''s concern because Hermes kept ring at her.


    Aside from Hermes, the neer''s opened their eyes wide in shock, "If this were to happen, huh?" muttered the former. Although he was able to hide his own feelings, he had the same reaction as the rest, "So you already anticipated this situation where Gods wouldn''t know what to do."


    Yoruichi shrugged her shoulders and picked up her ss, "To anticipate it, we''d need to have a good source of information. It''s our luck that we just have those."


    On this one, Loki was the first one who disagreed, "Luck? If something like this could be done through luck then there''s nothing impossible in this world."


    Freya then sat back down and added, "Aren''t you all curious why the both of us who were openly antagonistic, suddenly started working together and supported Hestia and Artemis'' Familia? You''ll probably get your answer soon."


    All sorts of questions started popping out from the neers, but Yoruichi and Serafall only gave nomittal answers. But just when they were about to lose their patience, the table lit up once again with Magic Circle, showing an image of Medusa, "The stage has been set. Aside from Kuroka, no one knew what was going on, until now."


    "Great~!" Serafall excitedly eximed and snapped her fingers.


    From that sound, three floating screens suddenly appeared in front of everyone depicting three different terrains.


    But instead of the terrain, what the Gods noticed first were their fellow Deities who were brimming with Divine Power, "Is that Aruna, Aktzin, and Osiris?" muttered Hephaestus.


    "So it was these three reckless idiots,"mented Ganesha. He was not at all surprised that Serafall''s Magic was capable of emting the God''s power because he''d already received aprehensive report about her. But his real concern was the girls who were facing these Gods, "What''s the meaning of this? Are they trying to throw their lives away?"
