"It's really rare. I didn't expect the 'runt' could be so serious."
At the edge of the hall, Loki, with her hands folded behind her head, looked at Hestia with interest.
"It seems that this rule has been completely set."
There are strong and weak people among mortals, and there are high and low people among gods.
Even though she usually looks out of place, when Hestia was in heaven, she was the main deity in charge of the eternal sacred flame.
Even among gods, the other party's divinity is of astonishingly high level.
Once the other party gets serious, she is still very majestic among ordinary gods.
Not to mention this war game, they are all outsiders.
"Hephaestus, you are close to that runt. Have you seen the child in her Familia?"
"Of course I have seen Ron."
Hephaestus replied.
"After all, I was there when the other party joined the Hestia Familia."
"So what kind of person is he?"
"I don't know."
"Not sure?"
Loki was suddenly stunned and looked at Hephaestus with a puzzled look.
"What does this mean?"
"It doesn't mean anything, I just can't see clearly."
Looking at the mirror appearing in the sky not far away, Hephaestus raised her hand and gestured.
"If you see it for yourself, you'll understand what I mean."
...
As a grand event for the entire Orario, the war game allows everyone in the city to watch the game in real time.
Although the Hestia and Soma families made the rules and called people to compete too quickly.
But this still did not prevent the entire Orario people from watching the process of this war game.
Buzz~
An invisible force spreads within Orario.
The next moment, countless circular mirrors appeared in every corner of Orario.
[Magic mirror].
This is the only power that gods can use when they are in the lower world.
The effect is similar to clairvoyance, and it can project the scene on the other side of the screen into the mirror for real-time playback.
In short, it is a real-time broadcast of the other world version.
At this moment, the live images in these mirrors are of the amphitheater located in the east of Orario.
Under the gaze of the gods and the people of Orario, two figures were walking through the passage, one on the left and one on the right, towards the arena in the center.
...
"Is this divine power?"
With his eyes flashing with an inexplicable light, Ron looked up at the sky for a while, then lowered his head with a look of satisfaction on his face.
I'll watch it.
This is good news for him.
The essence of his Heaven-Defying Talent is to analyze, understand, and then reproduce through after see it.
Being able to analyze and learn divine power instantly proves that the power of Heaven-Defying Talent is at least something that surpasses divine power by a large level.
The only regret is that this world has extremely strict supervision over divine power.
Even if he learned the divine power, he couldn't use it casually.
Otherwise, something big will inevitably happen afterwards.
"analyze is complete. The next step is to deal with this guy."
Ron lowered his head and looked at the thin man who walked out from the other side of the arena.
"Although this isn't a great place for our first meeting, I'll still introduce myself."
Zanis, who was wearing a flashy suit and holding a rapier in his hand, greeted calmly.
"I am Zanis Lustra, the Captain of the Soma Familia."
"Do you need me to show mercy, Captain Ron?"
"?"
Ron tilted his head and looked at Zanis as if he was looking at a clown.
"If I need to, what kind of treatment will you give me?"
"Don't worry, Captain Ron."
"I know how to act with moderation."
As if he had specifically investigated what happened yesterday, Zanis returned Ron's words exactly as they had been said yesterday.
"I will only break your limbs at most, not your life."
"Oh, limbs?"
Ron nodded thoughtfully.
...
Loki Familia.
"Hey! Is this guy reliable or not?"
Tione, who was watching the live broadcast, couldn't help but complain.
Since the venue of this war game was too narrow, the magic mirror could even perfectly broadcast the sounds from the scene.
Because of this, she heard the conversation between the two just now.
"Why are you already getting scared before the fight even starts?"
"Tsk, a weak is a weak."
Not far away, a silver-haired werewolf with a lightning tattoo on his face snorted coldly, and his voice sounded a little dissatisfied.
"Why are you going to the battlefield when you are not even ready for the battle?"
"Well~ I don't think it's his fault."
Beside Tione, Tiona, who looked very similar to her, replied.
"LV.1 vs. LV.2, this is a difficult task."
"The one from Hestia's Familia who dared to stand up is already very courageous in my opinion."
"By the way, what do you think, Ais?"
"Ron will win."
"Ron?"
"Um."
Ais, who was wearing a white short top and mini skirt, nodded, unlike her outfit in the dungeon.
The long golden hair radiates golden glow under the sunlight, and the calm eyes are full of confidence.
"Hestia's Familia captain, Ron."
"That LV.2 is no match for him."
...
"That LV.2 is no match for him."
At the same time as Ais made this judgment, the same declaration as hers was heard from another place.
After looking at Ron calmly, the tall and strong man replied to the silver-haired goddess beside him.
"The confidence in his eyes is not false self-deception."
"Although I don't know where his confidence comes from, one thing is certain."
"That man truly believed that he would not lose this game."
"Is that what you think?"
With her right hand on her cheek, Freya smiled with amazing charm.
She was not one of those wars gods, so naturally she could not see how superb Ron's martial arts were.
but...
As a god, she also has her own unique abilities.
That is to see through a person's soul and understand the essence of that person.
Compared with Zanis, whose soul was as dirty as a swamp, Ron, whose soul was covered with a layer of fog that even she could not see through, was obviously not an ordinary person.
After watching silently for a while, Freya sighed and stood up from the chair, confirming that she could not see through Ron.
"No, it's meaningless."
Sometimes, seeing too much is not a good thing.
At least she couldn't stand watching a battle like this where there was no suspense at all.
...
confused.
This was the only emotion Zanis felt at this moment.
He swung down mechanically again and again, staring at the man in front of him who had dodged all his attacks with a confused look on his face.
"Why…why is this happening…"
He murmured subconsciously.
It was obvious that the opponent's movement speed was not fast, and it was still very clear in his eyes.
But...
"Why can't I hit the target?!!!"
"It seems that this is all your strength."
Just as Zanis began to grow helpless and furious, Ron's voice suddenly rang out.
"I was expecting you to have a skill or magic."
"Now it seems that I overestimated you."
"Asshole! Don't underestimate..."
Bang!
"So what if I underestimate you."
Retracting his right fist, Ron asked calmly.
"Ah! You..."
Bang!
"Symmetry is more comfortable to look at."
Looking at Zanis rolling on the ground with his eyes covered, Ron casually drew out the red sword from his waist and walked towards him.
"It is important for a person to know himself."
"Too bad you don't have any."
"Since you like jumping in my face so much, I will let you know the consequences of doing so."
Zheng~
A dazzling cold light flashed in the air.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, blood flowers slowly bloomed on the arena.
