It took me three whole days after leveling up to return to some sense of normal and not feel like my body was holding a grudge against me. That wasn't to say my body was done with it's refinement from the level up in that time merely that I no longer felt like shit. It came as little surprise but my tattoos had grown a bit though admittedly not by much. I now had three long triangles on my back at each side just under my shoulder blades which I assumed represented wings of a sort.-

'If I ever actually turn into a cursed spirit I think I'll actually look like a demon at the rate this is going.' I thought with a chuckle.

"Level three already lad? Really making the rest of us look bad with how fast you and that other lad are shooting through the levels." Hroldar said with a laugh.

He like most of the city had gotten the news of my level up almost the same day it was reported to the guild and had come for a visit as a result.

"Not much sense in slowing down when we can rise quickly now is there?" I asked with a shrug.

"Aye that's true. Still you two got some people starting to wonder if you'll come to threaten those hegemons sitting at the top at the rate you're growing." he said seriously.

"Not likely, while I can't speak much for Loki and her familia we are fairly friendly with both Freya and Hephaestus at the moment so neither are likely to turn hostile to our rise." I said honestly.

"Now that you mention it how come you aren't charmed by Freya like everyone else? Hell she's even got a bloody level seven charmed and yet you seem unaffected." he asked curiously.

I shook my head with a chuckle "Ottar isn't charmed by her, just devoted to such a degree that it might appear that way. As for myself I am just the exception to the rules so that infamous charm of hers rolls right off me rather than digging in. Ironically that is actually one of the things that pleases her the most and why she is so friendly with me, she's lonely." I said honestly.

"I have to admit you certainly have a pair on you to actually show up here looking for information." I said with a raised eyebrow at the smug blonde god sitting across from me.

"It wounds me that you'd think so little of me, do I seem like such a treacherous individual?" he asked feigning sadness.

I nodded vigorously "Yep, you give me the impression that you'd be more than happy watching terrible shit go down if it meant you achieved your goals." I said seriously.

His face twitched a bit at that and I chuckled "Seems like I struck a nerve, dead on am I right?" I asked and he sighed.

"That skill of yours is rather annoying, no hiding ones intentions at all when your very soul is laid bare to see. Since this is the case I'll be straightforward, you are dangerous and I'm here to make sure you don't become a problem." he said firmly with a sharp look in his eyes.

I smiled "See, was that so hard? It's a wonder how much we'd get done if everyone was so clear from the get go. Not that you are being entirely honest here that is. You already know becoming evil isn't possible due to my skill. No you are here to try and fish for information on my full strength, no doubt to try and make plans to "tame" me so I don't get in your way." I said with an amused look as his expression darkened.
