Chapter 268: Another Familia Myth War Game?
🕑 Added 2025-06-29 03:47:57 +0000 UTC“How could this guy be so strong…!”
The surrounding men in black clutched their wounds, looking at Blake in horror, their minds reeling.
According to intelligence, although Blake could defeat the Sword Princess, his own strength had not reached the LV.6 level. While the mass-killing sword qi seemed flashy, it wasn’t as effective against LV.6 adventurers as imagined. As for the sword strike that destroyed the city, Captain Ottar also realized that it wasn’t Blake’s own power, but rather due to that splendid holy sword.
So, in their view, although Blake broke conventions by defeating an LV.5 at LV.1, he should have been utterly helpless against their encirclement by one LV.6 and six LV.5s.
However, reality was completely different from their imagination. Blake hadn’t moved a single step, yet he had instantly wiped them out.
“Could it be…”
Just then, the LV.6 adventurer suddenly thought of a possibility. His pupils constricted, and he looked at Blake’s utterly calm expression in disbelief.
“Given that your Familia helped me a little last time, I’ll spare you for now. But it won’t just end here. Go back and tell your master. I’ve noted this, and I’ll settle the score with her later.”
Blake’s crystal-blue eyes swept around. He coldly dropped these words, then, holding Hestia’s and Lili’s hands, he calmly stepped past their encirclement and disappeared into the night.
However, as he left, he glanced in a certain direction.
“Damn it! Mission failed. Quickly treat our injuries and report back.”
Powerless to stop Blake from leaving, this group could only grit their teeth in frustration. They each pulled out omnipotent healing potions from their pockets, poured them on their wounds, and then left in disarray.
Meanwhile, on a certain tall tower, Freya, dressed in grey robes, watched this scene with a flushed face.
Last night, she couldn’t resist sending someone to Blake’s house. The news they brought back utterly stunned her. The explosive news of Blake leveling up to LV.7 lingered in her mind, refusing to dissipate.
Although that subordinate and Ottar couldn’t imagine such a thing, she held absolute trust. After all, that surging soul radiance was too dazzling, and it had caused such astonishing reactions in her body. It wasn’t strange for him to level up to LV.7.
For Freya, Blake himself was a miraculous existence. Freya was curious about what Blake had done.
Becoming increasingly infatuated with Blake, his image constantly in her mind, Freya finally couldn’t endure this agitation and decided to test him.
Indeed, the oppressive power Blake displayed could only be explained by LV.7. No, it should be said that even LV.7 wasn’t enough to explain Blake’s might. Freya also had a conjecture regarding this: Blake had completely broken through the ability value limits set by them, the gods.
That is, he had broken through S-rank, and not just a little; he had greatly surpassed it! Otherwise, it wouldn’t be enough to prove Blake’s overwhelming power, which was even stronger than Ottar’s.
It had to be said that as a goddess who had lived for hundreds of millions of years, toyed with countless gods and men, and made her Familia the undisputed strongest, Freya’s wisdom was indeed extraordinary.
Hestia, you don’t have the right to possess him… He is mine, absolutely… mine!
Looking up at the starry sky, Freya muttered with an infatuated expression. Although her charm was unparalleled and her beauty peerless, she gave off an unsettling sense of madness… enough to make one’s scalp tingle.
---
As Freya grew more infatuated and insane, Blake, Hestia, and Lili had already returned home.
Regarding the ambush and the alliance with the Loki Familia, Hestia and Lili didn’t immediately ask. Instead, they each went to take a bath, as the tavern had been quite smelly.
After bathing, they gathered in Hestia’s room. Thanks to the high-quality modern shampoo and shower gel Blake brought, the special fragrance mixed with the girls’ natural scent made the entire room smell delightful.
“Alright, Blake, you can tell us now.”
Sitting directly beside Blake, Hestia’s expression was normal, with a hint of a smile and a touch of seriousness as she asked.
“Hestia, do you think a Familia with just two or three people is good?”
Hearing this, Blake casually counter-questioned.
“Of course good…?! Blake, you want to develop the Familia?”
Hestia’s pretty face first flushed slightly. She was about to nod in agreement, but then seemed to realize something. She looked at Blake in astonishment and exclaimed in a clear voice.
“Yes, although this atmosphere makes me feel very comfortable, that would be too selfish. Hestia, I know. You really want Hephaestus’s recognition, don’t you? And you also want to surpass Loki.”
Blake nodded solemnly and began to explain.
“Furthermore, sometimes I have to go to the deep levels, or I have to leave for a period of time. It’s too dangerous for Lili to venture into the dungeon alone, and I don’t feel at ease having her team up with outsiders. So, I plan to expand the Familia. That way, Hestia, your life will also be much more fulfilling.”
“Blake, I love you!”
Hearing this, Hestia’s eyes instantly sparkled with watery luster. She excitedly hugged Blake’s right arm, filled with emotion.
“Lord Blake!”
Lili also hugged his left arm, touched.
“Regarding the development of the Familia, I also have a plan. The alliance with the Loki Familia is to reduce the danger when nurturing new members. As for recruiting talents, there are only two conditions: reputation and resources. As for reputation, I just need to make my name known, and the Hestia Familia will naturally become famous. As for resources, although the Apollo Familia has a good amount, it’s not enough. So I chose the previous method.”
Although the soft, fair skin of the girls touching his arm made him feel very comfortable, Blake didn’t think much of it now. He simply earnestly revealed the thoughts in his mind.
“Blake, you mean… the Familia Myth War Game?”
Hestia also came back to her senses from her emotional state. After pondering for a moment, she spoke Blake’s thoughts, showing extraordinary wisdom.
“Yes, exactly the Familia Myth War Game. And the opponent is the Freya Familia who attacked us tonight. As long as we defeat the Freya Familia in front of the whole world, then both resources and reputation will resound throughout the entire world.”
Blake’s lips curled slightly, speaking calmly.
This, however, left Hestia and Lili completely stunned. Going to war with the strongest Familia, the Freya Familia, no one in this world’s Familias dared to say such a thing now.
