"Are you looking for me?"
Looking directly at Ottar, August spoke slowly.
While August was assessing him, Ottar also sized up August.T/his chapter is updated by
Being able to defeat Allen indicates that the opponent's strength is at least level 6. Now, it seems even more so. The faint sense of oppression makes Ottar confident that August can definitely match him. Recalling Freya's words, it hinted that August was already stronger than him.
Originally, he had disdain for this. He was very confident that in this new era, he was the most powerful adventurer. Now, he realized he had become somewhat arrogant.
"Lady Freya wishes to see you."
"Interesting. Last time, she forcefully took me away, and after the failure, she's here to invite me."
"Will you go?"
"Whether I go or not, what's the difference?"
"If you're willing to go, that's naturally the best. If you're unwilling, I will report to Lady Freya. The final decision is hers."
This is Ottar, a pure warrior, and the ultimate weapon who completely submits to Freya.
He will unconditionally follow all of Freya's orders. Whatever she says, he will not exceed it in the slightest.
"I thought you might forcefully take me back. It's disappointing."
After completing the third-task and not encountering the speculated fourth-task, two special missions were refreshed.
[Orario Strongest Adventurer: Defeat the current strongest adventurer, Ottar. Completion Reward: Advanced Gacha Draw *3]
[Creating a New Legend: Reach Dungeon Floor 59 and defeat the Demi-Spirit. Completion Reward: Advanced Gacha Draw *5]
As for new upgrade tasks and hunting tasks, there were none.
This made August slightly disappointed, and he also had a guess. The rewards for these three-tasks were a bit too generous, especially a super gacha draw after completing all tasks in one phase.
Now that he had completed all the tasks, it was like successfully passing the novice period. These tasks were like novice tasks in a new player guide. Now that he had graduated, he could stand alone. Perhaps that was the significance of these three-tasks.
However, regardless of the reason, two new mission were still refreshed.
August found it amusing. Only Loki dared to speak to Ottar like this, ignoring Lady Freya.
"August, are you okay?"
Finn asked August at this time.
"I'm fine. I just came out. You guys rushed out as soon as you heard Ottar was looking for me."
"It's not easy for us."
The two smiled at each other. Sometimes, some words didn't need to be said.
Among the crowd, Lefiya looked at August with a hesitant expression.
At first, there was a lot of animosity between her and August, but with the passage of time and the contact with August, she found that August was actually a good person.
Moreover, since August appeared, the once expressionless Ais now had a smile on her face every day.
After this comparison, she felt that Ais and August being together might not be a bad thing.
But, because August deliberately provoked her again and again, their relationship had escalated.
Just now, in the 18th floor, when she was held by a boy for the first time, and that person was August, her first reaction was not disgust, but a slightly accelerated heartbeat.
Thinking back carefully, she suddenly realized that her concern for Ais had gradually changed.
From admiration and longing, it evolved into the current obsession and unwillingness to admit defeat.
She wasn't angry because Ais was with other men, she was angry because the man was August.
"Hey, Lefiya, are you here to support me too?"
"Who cares about you? I'm just worried that Lady Ais will be implicated by you."
"Same as always, leeching off the elves."
"Who are you calling a 'leech'?"
Lefiya instantly got angry. However, in the eyes of others, it looked more like being touched on a sore spot.
