50 Oh no, I forgot about the appointment!
Chapter 50 - Oh no, I forgot about the appointment!
In Rivira town, due to Ethan's presence, along with the fact that there were already many adventurers staying there, the monsters were quickly suppressed.
However, the battle continued on for a long time.
It was Ethan, with a sword in each hand, who became the talk of the town, as each of his swords could take down a monster with a single hit.
Though attacking in groups, the monsters were not endless.
Over time, their numbers dwindled, and the adventurers felt less pressure.
With a 'puff,' a sword slashed through the chest of a Minotaur, its unnatural destructive power carrying it off.
Then, a magic stone fell to the ground, and Ethan let out a sigh of relief.
The surrounding battles had nearly all ended.
This time, Ethan had killed about fifty to sixty monsters, mainly because he was focused on 'moving through the battlefield.'
Seeing the large number of magic stones stored in his 'imaginary space,' Ethan couldn't help but smile.
It was a windfall indeed. This 'monster attack' brought Ethan many unexpected gains, earning him a small fortune.
Afterward, Ethan also looked around. Rivira Town had suffered considerable damage.
After all, being made of wood, the buildings and structures were easily shattered in front of powerful monsters.
But, of course, they were easy to repair since there was no shortage of wood around.
"Bro, I heard you kicked some serious ass this time!"
At this time, Bors, full of smiles, approached, looking at Ethan with even more eagerness.
This time, without the presence of mages, Bors had thought there would be significant losses.
However, Ethan's arrival brought him a surprise.
Across the town, the boy had killed countless monsters, reducing the pressure on others and preventing significant casualties.
"It was just luck~"
"That's not how it works. Just talking about the Minotaur, you'd need at least level 3 strength to kill it with a single sword strike, right? Are you level 3, brother?"
Ethan was speechless after hearing Bors's words.
He had only been in Orario for a short time, so how could he be level 3? Bors must have known that too.
No need to guess about today's events; once word gets out to the city, he would become famous once again.
Previously, being directly taken under Freya's wing in the street had made him quite well-known in Orario, and who knows what trouble another such fame might bring.
When he ranks up to level 2, who knows what kind of messy alias the gods might give.
"Wait, Denatsu! The appointment! Oh no!!!"
Suddenly, Ethan remembered he had something to do today.
Freya had asked him to accompany her to the divine banquet.
Now he was on the 18th floor; if he stood Freya up, he could only imagine the consequences.
"Bors, I have something urgent, I have to go now, we'll drink another time!"
After saying that, he ran off, leaving Bors confused.
What was going on? Just a moment ago, everything seemed casual, and then suddenly, he was acting as if he saw a ghost.
It seems like the boy really remembered something urgent.
"Really now, I had just found a few beautiful women to strengthen relationships, and he just left."
Bors was disappointed. For a man, there are many ways to befriend them.
He had specifically found a few beautiful female adventurers, promising them a handsome reward, convincing them to attend to Ethan for the night.
Well, men pursue a few things: money, power, and beauty.
Although Ethan was kept by the goddess of beauty, men understand men best; no man can resist the temptation of outside beauty.
Just add a little alcohol, and everything falls into place.
It was a good plan, but now that the target had left, it was all for nothing.
"Bors, there's a problem."
"What now? Haven't all the monsters been dealt with?"
"It's not the monsters; it's the magic stones. After counting, we've found that nearly a third, if not more, of the magic stones dropped from this monster attack are missing."
"What? A third of the magic stones are missing?"
"Only more, not less!"
Hearing this, Bors was furious.
The monster attack had already caused significant damage to the town, and those magic stones were supposed to be his reward for recuperating the losses. Now so many were missing.
"Are other people from Rivira hiding them?"
"I don't know, and there's no way to check."
"Someone must be scheming behind the scenes, very well, I'll have everyone investigate. I refuse to believe they left no traces."
"I understand~"
From beginning to end, neither of them considered that Ethan, who had just left, was the culprit.
After all, he was active at the frontline of the battle, never stopping, and he didn't carry a backpack or anything, so there was no opportunity or time to pick up magic stones.
What they didn't know was that Ethan possessed a spatial skill called 'Imaginary Space.'
Meanwhile, Ethan activated 'Mana Burst' and dashed at full speed towards Orario.
He must hurry back.
If he really stood Freya up, he would be doomed.
Just a few days ago, he just made a big boast, and then turned around and did something like this, quite the turn of events.
…
On top of the Tower of Babel, Freya changed into a white dress, complementing her enchanting beauty and perfect golden ratio figure, displaying the charm of 'goddess of beauty' to the fullest.
"Ottar, where is Ethan?"
Looking at the magic clock beside her, Freya spoke with a displeased tone.
"He hasn't returned yet."
Ottar honestly replied, knowing that Ethan had gone to the dungeon early in the morning, not just today, but recently as well.
After that incident, Ethan had made a 180-degree change from his usual laziness, as if reverting to his old self.
"He hasn't returned? What time is it now, and he still hasn't come back?"
Freya's face turned a bit sour. She had asked him to accompany her to the divine banquet, a privilege many could not obtain.
Yet, there he goes off to the dungeon, and he still hasn't returned.
The time for the banquet was approaching, and she had planned to show off in front of the other goddesses.
Unexpectedly, Ethan had pulled such a move now.
