Danmachi: I'm Leveling Up In The Dungeon

"Oh, it's actually grown that large." Aston muttered as he walked down the street, staring at Ryuu beside him.

The previous Ryuu was almost flat, just a little better than a flat board. Strictly speaking, it was an A, but after drinking the potion Aston made, it jumped two levels to a D.

"Glysias-san, don't stare at it!!!" Being stared at by Aston, Ryuu felt extremely embarrassed and indignant, so she covered her chest and said angrily.

If it weren't for the Astraea Familia, she wouldn't have drank that potion bottle.

After drinking it, a certain part of her developed and grew wildly. The clothes she wore before were very loose, but now they felt very tight, with a feeling of suffocation.

On top of that, growing so big all of a sudden made her movements very awkward.

She needs to go back and adjust well so that her abilities do not deteriorate.

"Ah haha, sorry, sorry."

"I didn't expect this potion to be so effective. It's truly a potion made by Lord Miach."

"I just don't know if it will work on Gods." Aston laughed and apologized, then muttered to himself.

Now that he has decided to pass the matter on to Miach, Aston will of course not fail to explain the "source" of the medicine once he gives it to Ryuu to use.

This potion was originally made for Loki, but is now being used on Ryuu. It's very effective, but it's not guaranteed to work on Loki.

"Gods are unchangeable. This medicine should not be able to affect the Gods."

"By the way, Glycias-san, why do you want to help Lord Loki?" Hearing Aston's purpose, Ryuu shook her head reflexively and then asked curiously.

"Same as you."

"I want to entrust a first-class adventurer from the Loki Familia to take me to the Lower Levels."

"However, my God and Loki have a bad relationship. Unless there were special circumstances, Loki probably wouldn't let Finn and the others accept my mission."

"So I thought of helping Loki deal with her problems."

"But with you now, I don't have to entrust anything to the Loki Familia." Aston didn't hide anything and explained directly.

Although Aston was not entirely satisfied with just having Ryuu as a helper and wanted to continue employing the Loki Familia, he thought about Ryuu's identity as an adventurer sought by the Guild and gave up.

After all, if Ryuu comes to help him, he can't put Ryuu in danger.

I can only reluctantly give up my feelings.

Hearing Aston's words, Ryuu was pensive and memories of the past flashed through her mind.

"Ryuu, the more first-class adventurers there are, the better."

Past flashbacks flooded back as Ryuu narrowed her eyes slightly and said.

"Glycias-san, potions cannot work on gods, but they can make a first-class adventurer in the Loki Familia take action and accept your mission."

"You mean Tiona?"

"Forget it, your identity cannot be revealed to others. Even if you change your appearance now, the first-level adventurers of the Loki Familia will still recognize you." Ryuu's words made Aston think of something exciting. However, he rejected the idea the next moment.

"If Glycias-san is worried about my identity, there is no need."

"I've run into Loki Familia first-class adventurers several times after being searched for. They have no ill intentions toward me and have never reported me."

"As Glycias-san said, they know me, they often go to the inn I work at to eat, so they know of my whereabouts." Ryuu shook her head and explained that he didn't have to worry about her identity.

As Ryuu said this, Aston remembered that this was really the case.

Finn and the others from the Loki Familia must know that Ryuu is in the Hostess of Fertility.

No, it should be said that many of the God's Familia are aware of Ryuu's existence, but they have no intention of taking action against her, so they all turn a blind eye.

Just like Hermes, when Bell was trapped in the Middle Floors, he immediately thought of asking Ryuu for help. It can be seen that Ryuu's whereabout is not too secret among some gods.

"It's okay if you say so." After thinking about it clearly, Aston pondered and agreed after a while.

"In that case, let's go to the Twilight Pavilion now."

"Then Glycias-san, I will go back first."

"I'll wait for you tomorrow morning on the First Floor of the dungeon." Ryuu nodded and then prepared to say goodbye and return to the Hostess of Fertility.

She will ask Aunt Mia for permission.

"No, you come with me."

"Finn and the others won't attack you anyway."

"Besides, your demonstration should convince Tiona and Loki of my potion's authenticity." Ryuu was about to leave, but Aston grabbed her and asked her to join him at the Twilight Pavilion.

But this time, something happened.

No, it's not a big deal, it's just that Ryuu was numb.

"Gly,Glycias-san! this..." Ryuu stared blankly at the hand held by Aston and screamed unconsciously.

Seeing Ryuu like that, Aston was a bit confused.

However, following Ryuu's gaze and seeing their hands touching, Aston reacted and quickly let go of her hands.

"Sorry, I completely forgot about the elves' peculiarities." After letting go of her hand, Aston apologized a little awkwardly.

He had forgotten that the elves have a very special thing, they only let the people they recognize touch their skin.

"No, it's not Glycias-san's fault," she took her hand back and touched her palm. Ryuu felt the residual heat from his palm and shook her head.

"I didn't resist Glycias-san's touch. It's because I've considered him as my hope for so many years, so I've already recognized Glycias-san in my heart!!!" Ryuu thought silently in her heart.

Her germaphobia is very serious.

As long as it's not someone she can relate to, she will have a strong resistance response to someone else's touching her skin, her body will unconsciously react to prevent others from touching her. 

However, she didn't resist Aston's touch just now. Even with Aston holding her hand, she didn't shake it away.

'Glycias-san is the third person I connect with in my life, the third person who touches my hand with no resistance.'

For a moment, Ryuu looked at Aston with a softer gaze.
