Chapter 417 Reaching the Top, the Astrea Familia!
"Lady Freya!"
"Waaaaaah!"
"That despicable madman, so cruel!"
When Roy plucked Freya's flower, the outcome of this war game was already sealed!
According to the game rules, as long as the allied gods are not completely eliminated, the Freya Familia members can continue fighting, but this is not the case in reality.
Freya was not only the leader of this alliance, but also the spiritual pillar of all Freya Familia. Ota's defeat and her elimination dealt a heavy blow to everyone's confidence, and morale plummeted.
It even affected Hedin, Allen, and others.
Under Lily's command, Ryu, Tione, and the other girls effortlessly stole the flowers of the gods from the Freya Alliance, achieving a complete victory.
game over!
The war game ended in a complete victory for the Astrea Familia, leaving all who watched speechless with shock.
The nominally strongest battle.
However, the strength and foundation of the Astrea Familia far surpassed those of the Freya Familia. Except for a brief period of being at a disadvantage at the beginning due to the difference in numbers and Hedin's excellent strategy, once Haruhime used her level-up, she completely overwhelmed the Freya Familia.
The wisdom and strength displayed by girls such as Ryu, Tione, Tiona, Lily, Haruhime, Arisaka, and Kaguya are truly awe-inspiring.
Not to mention the ultimate battle between Roy and Ota.
On this day, history turned a new page, and Orario, the "City of Heroes," took on a completely new form.
Astrea's clan reached the summit alone!
The Freya Familia and the Loki Familia, the two kings of the North and South!
The powerful families of Ganesha, Hephaestus, and Hermes followed closely behind.
Everyone could feel that a new era had begun, an era called the Astrea Familia, which also belonged to the magical boy Roy.
"The madman! The madman!!"
"The madman! The madman!!"
When Roy, Astrid, Ryu, Tione, and the others returned to the towering gates of Orario, the entire city erupted in jubilation.
A frenzied roar, like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing!
The deafening roar, like a long-accumulated tsunami, exploded with a frenzied sound that crashed against the city walls, as if it would overturn the entire sky!
On both sides of the road, crowds that had been waiting for a long time stretched out countless arms into the air, vying to throw colorful flower petals...
Exquisite flowers were scattered upon the triumphant Astrea clan, and in an instant, the entire main road was submerged in a sea of flowers and ribbons, with a fragrant aroma filling the frenzied air!
All the doors and windows of the buildings were open, and crowds of people thronged the streets. Countless children rode on their fathers' shoulders, screaming with joy. Young girls covered their mouths in excitement, and the elderly had tears in their eyes—every face was filled with heartfelt admiration.
On the thirtieth floor of the Tower of Babel, Loki, Hermes, and other gods, looking down from above, could hear the resounding cheers that echoed through the heavens, their faces filled with awe.
If Freya's Familia wins the war game, this scene will definitely not be seen.
This is the prestige of the Astrea Familia!
The goddess who governs "justice" is respected by countless people in the lower realm. The Astrea Familia, who has protected Orario and its people countless times in the name of "justice," is the reason why people wholeheartedly support them.
"That's amazing, Mr. Roy!"
Standing at the edge of the crowd, little Bell looked up at the unprecedented spectacle. His innocent, animal-like eyes widened, his mouth slightly agape, his face filled with unparalleled shock and wonder. The figure of the "madman," fervently chanted by countless people, the glory surrounded by flowers and cheers—
It perfectly matches his ideal of a hero!
Little Bell also gained a lot from this incident. She was bewitched by Freya and endured more than ten days of inhuman torture on the battlefield, teetering on the brink of life and death every day. Her abilities increased significantly, especially her endurance. She accomplished a great feat and successfully leveled up to LV.3!
Some people are happy and some are worried!
"No!"
"My money, all of this is my money!"
"For Lady Freya, waaaaaah!"
Freya's Familia was defeated, and the gods who joined them howled and wailed like children. The hundreds of billions of assets, cash, equipment, and supplies that were mortgaged to the guild all fell into the hands of the Astrea Alliance.
The assets looted by Freya's Familia in the later stages have now also ended up in Roy's pocket.
Roy felt no guilt about it.
Freya's Familia doesn't target legitimate businesses for plunder; they're not that ruthless. They mainly raid underground casinos, bars, mercenary groups, and other shady establishments.
These forces are even connected to dark factions.
The two sides were originally enemies, so Roy had no reason to give up his assets and money.
Freya's clan takes the blame, while he profits!
Having won assets worth hundreds of billions in one fell swoop, the reward ceremony, or rather, the distribution of spoils, was held as scheduled.
The gods who joined the Astrea Familia—Hephaestus, Guberneau, and Nyord—all made a fortune, each earning billions of Fali. They poured their wealth and resources into supporting Astrea, bearing immense pressure. If Roy loses, their assets will also be wiped out.
It is only natural to have such a harvest.
Hestia, who invested in the technology to defend against Freya's allure, also reaped significant benefits.
"Yay!"
Hestia received three billion fares in cash and was so excited that she danced with joy. Overjoyed, she hugged Roy and wept bitterly, her tears soaking Roy's clothes.
Even a penny can stump a little goddess!
She is no longer a naive and ignorant deity who has just descended to the mortal realm. She knows the importance of money. This time, she sided with the Astrea Familia, hoping to win big with a small investment and completely escape poverty and become rich. She can be considered a little rich woman in Orario.
"hey-hey!"
Hestia's chubby, adorable face broke into a silly grin as she began to imagine what to do with the money: buy, buy, buy!
Hestia particularly enjoyed showing off in front of Loki, holding up her Supreme Gold Card and feigning surprise, asking, "How did you know I earned three billion?"
"Roll, roll, roll, roll!"
Loki found it extremely disgusting; it was too awful to look at.
The two strongest clans are at war, and the guild would never allow the Loki Familia to get involved and make things worse. In this incident, the Loki Familia gained nothing.
Thinking back to how he had secretly entered the dungeon and been fined by the guild, Loki wept bitterly. When you're unlucky, even drinking cold water can cause problems.
Other families took 70%, while the Astrea Familia received 30%, meaning the majority of the profits went to the Astrea Familia. —
The public facilities shares and mansion of the Leia family were all transferred to Roy's name.
The assets of the Astrea Familia have doubled!
Orario's strongest and richest player, truly deserving of the title!
If the guild hadn't been worried about pushing Freya's Familia to the brink of despair and causing unforeseen circumstances, and hadn't provided them with temporary shelter through a loan, Freya, Ota, Allen, and the others would have been homeless.
But they don't care about these things.
What the Freya Familia members care about most is the whereabouts of their goddess. With the war game lost, their fate is in the hands of the Astrea Familia.
Even if Roy and Astrea return Freya to the heavens, no one else can say anything.
This is the cruelty of war games!
The winner takes all, and the loser has no chance to recover!
The Orario Familia rarely engages in this kind of game.
Like the Asteria Familia, they engaged in continuous war games for several years, crushing the Apollo Familia, the Ishtar Familia, and others.
The Freya Familia is unique in Orario's thousands of years of history.
Privately, adventurers spread the word that Roy had earned the nickname "Familia Killer".
It is so terrifying that it makes people tremble with fear!
"Since we've lost, there's nothing we can do. Let them do as they please. You all stay here and continue your journey towards becoming 'heroes.'"
Freya resigned herself to her fate. After leaving these words, she hid in her dormitory at the "Fertile Mistress" tavern, quietly awaiting Roy's judgment on her.
A bet's a bet, and you have to accept the consequences!
Freya still has her last line of defense as a god.
The Freya Familia members wept bitterly, heartbroken and filled with remorse, blaming themselves for their lack of strength, which had led to their goddess's plight.
Unable to discern Roy's intentions, the Freya Familia members and the guild were impatient, constantly trying to gauge his intentions, fearing that Roy might actually send Freya back to the Celestial Realm, which would be a huge problem!
As mentioned before, Freya is the spiritual pillar of Otto, Allen, Hedin and others!
Even if Freya allows them to remain in Orario and fight for the city, and they obey the goddess's orders 100%, their faith and will will definitely weaken, just like the cat people of the past, becoming like walking corpses.
Upgrading in the future will be even more difficult!
Oralley, a high-end coffee shop.
"What exactly do you want?"
The negotiator sent by Freya's Familia was naturally Hedin, the aloof white elf who stared coldly at Roy with sharp eyes.
Roy took a sip of his hot coffee, smugly saying, "Is this how you ask for favors? I told Ota before, you have no manners whatsoever."
Hedin raised an eyebrow. "Don't go too far. We need our strength to defeat Dionysus and the corrupted celestial body on the sixty-fifth floor!"
Roy glanced at the other person casually.
Roy wasn't surprised that Hedin knew this information; it must have been leaked by the guild.
One of the guild's most important functions is to maintain a high-end fighting force sufficient to protect the city, and to absolutely not allow the Freya Spring Clan to break away from Orario.
In other words, after the war game ends, the guild will do everything in its power to help the defeated clans.
"You think you can use this as leverage to negotiate with me?" Roy's face remained calm. Even without Freya Familia, he and his girls, Loki Familia, and other forces could probably defeat the corrupt fairy's true form. The other party's attempt to threaten him was far from enough.
"No!"
Hedin said in a deep voice, "In the following operations, we will completely obey your orders. You can throw us into the most dangerous places without hesitation!"
Roy nodded; that did sound like a reasonable statement.
But it's not over yet!
"And then?" Roy continued to press. The tainted fairy's true form threatened the entire city, and protecting Orario was its duty. Having finally won the war game and gained wartime command, it was impossible for him to be satisfied with this small reward.
Hedin's face darkened; he had quite the appetite.
"That lord is willing to accept all the results. We cannot make decisions for that lord. Our only request is that you refuse to return him to the heavens!" Hedin suppressed his anger.
Hedin's momentum had been completely suppressed by Roy.
Roy's lips curled into a slight smile; it was time to negotiate. "Herdin, Freya is a treasure of Orario. How could I do something as cruel as sending her back to the heavens, without even exiling her?"
Upon hearing this, Hedin was not pleased but worried.
In theory, they could accept even exile. As long as they were still in the lower realm, they would have a chance to meet again sooner or later, and at worst, they could go together.
Just like Apollo and Hyacinthus, the ill-fated lovers who wandered the world together.
But there's no such thing as a free lunch. Roy's difficult nature is well-known, and Hedin knew that there must be even more demanding conditions behind it.
"As long as Goddess Freya does three things for me from now on, and before the three things are completed, you must not harm me or the members of the Astrea Familia in any way, and she must also become a subordinate god of Goddess Astrea," Roy said slowly.
"impossible!"
Hedin blurted out, then slammed his hand on the table and stood up abruptly.
With Hedin's wisdom, he instantly understood Roy's shrewd calculations and was about to curse, seemingly giving Freya's Familia time and leeway to calm down.
It's actually even more disgusting!
Freya's Familia's assets have been seized. Under the guild's strong demands, the Familia members will definitely remain in Orario. The rest is up to the goddess to decide what to do with them.
Either send them back to Heaven, or exile them!
Roy made Freya's wish three times on the condition that she stay in Orario, thus making Freya a subordinate god and putting her in an even more difficult situation!
As long as they dare to agree, Roy will allow Freya to be sent back to the Celestial Realm at any time.
If Hedin could beat Roy, he would have wanted to fight him to the death. He hated it! If only he had been two years earlier, he would have been confident that he could crush the boy in front of him.
The opponent's growth rate is terrifying.
"It's up to you. To be honest, whether the goddess Freya is returned to the heavens or left in Orario is none of my business," Roy said.
Hedin gave Roy a deep look; it seemed Roy truly didn't care about that official.
It's truly a frustrating situation!
"I will report this to that official!"
"Um!"
Roy agreed, saying that he had to put collars on Freya, that madwoman, and those fierce hounds. Then, he turned to look at the distance and said, "But—before that, you need to take care of something else."
Hedin followed Roy's gaze and his pupils dilated in shock. With the two major clans negotiating, the café had obviously been cleared out, but he hadn't noticed anyone else inside. The other party's strength far surpassed his own!
The obstructing screen was moved aside.
The woman who came into view had a stunningly beautiful face, as if it had been carved from jade under the moonlight, and her features were so exquisite that they were flawless.
Her breathtaking beauty was in no way inferior to that of a true goddess. She was tall and slender, with long, flowing, silvery-gray hair that shone with a cool light.
What is most striking are her heterochromatic eyes—her left eye is a condensed, gray-gold color that contains endless desolation and power; her right eye is a deep, verdant green that seems to contain life.
She wore a perfectly tailored, exquisite black dress that seemed to drape her in the night, her hands covered by thin black gloves, adding a touch of cold distance and mystery to her stunning beauty.
It was Alphia who had returned from the north!
