When their hands touched each other, Tsukasa responded calmly by putting the apple in her hand before he stood up. He knew that an elf, especially the female one, would refrain from touching the opposite gender. They took care of their chastity well and wouldn't let any males get close to them unless they were close or they were their lovers.
Of course, there was an exception.
Tsukasa wanted to test Ryuu's reaction, so he tried to touch her hand like it was an accident. "Has my Familia come to your pub?"
"Ah, yes." Ryuu quickly nodded when she heard his voice, then said, "Congratulations that you have become a Level 5."
"Thanks." Tsukasa nodded with a smile before he heard a familiar voice.
"Tsukasa!" Syr waved her hand with a smile and hooked her hand around his arm as if it was the most natural thing to do. "Ryuu, I'll bring him there. You have something to do first, right?"
Ryuu looked at Syr for a moment before she nodded. "Yes, I still need to continue my errand."
"Then, we won't bother you. Come on, Tsukasa!" Syr happily pulled Tsukasa.
Tsukasa looked speechlessly at Syr, then nodded at Ryuu. "See you later, Ryuu."
"See you later." Ryuu nodded while watching the back of Syr and Tsukasa before she looked at the hand that was touched by him. Before she was a waitress at the Hostess of Fertility, she was also an adventurer like Tsukasa. She was part of Astraea Familia, who was known as the goddess of justice. Her Familia was like the Ganesha Familia, and her Familia was also a police force of the Orario.
In the past, the captain of her Familia had told her that she shouldn't let the opposite gender touch her hand carelessly. However, if there was someone who could hold her hand, she shouldn't let go of that man.
Ryuu looked at Tsukasa's back before she looked at Syr. Even though she knew she shouldn't let go of him, she knew she shouldn't steal the crush of her friend.
While Ryuu was in the middle of a thought, Syr whispered to Tsukasa. "Do you want to have a private celebration with me?" Her eyes were full of desire, and she clearly told him they could go wild tonight. After all, she was also dumbfounded when she heard he had become a Level 5, and of course, she was quite selfish to monopolize him alone instead of giving him to her Familia.
"Sorry." Tsukasa apologized. "If you want to celebrate, let's do it tomorrow." Anyway, while he could do it again, he was in "sage mode." He had just finished with Aisha, after all, so even if Syr's invitation was attractive, and he could also do it again, he didn't want to sacrifice his relationship with the Loki Familia. His official girlfriend was also there, and frankly, Syr, whose real identity was Freya, was quite troublesome.
This woman also wasn't suitable to become a wife since she had an inverse harem.
The concept of chastity also didn't exist in this woman.
It was better not to have a feeling.
However, if it was only to have fun, Tsukasa was okay to do it.
Syr pouted and looked away, waiting for Tsukasa to coax her. After all, being rejected definitely didn't feel good, and she, who had always been accustomed to being pampered, couldn't accept his act.
However, Tsukasa ignored Syr and slipped his hand.
"Hey, is this how you treat me?!" Syr complained.
Still, Tsukasa ignored Syr.
Syr looked at Tsukasa for a while, stomping her feet, before she followed him again since she knew this guy was fucking bastard!
Syr was sure this guy could leave her without hesitation, but she didn't want to leave him.
Still, when Syr wanted to hug Tsukasa again, someone suddenly hugged him.
"Tsukasa!"
Tiona hugged Tsukasa happily.
"...." Syr.
"Is everyone already there?" Tsukasa asked.
"Of course! They have been waiting for you! Where have you been?" Tiona asked with a pout.
"He has been with me," Syr suddenly said and hooked her arm around Tsukasa.
"..." Tsukasa.
"Who are you?" Tiona looked at Syr with a frown. After all, she must admit Syr was cute, and her instinct also told her this woman was a tough opponent.
Syr glanced at Tsukasa with a smirk.
"..." Tsukasa's lips twitched, and he sighed, thinking of the mess he had caused. However, watching his expression, Syr showed a triumphant expression and even raised her chest, waiting for him to bow his head.
Tsukasa was reluctant, but he whispered, "You can have me all day tomorrow."
Her eyes shone, and she nodded before whispering, "You have to agree to all my requests."
"...Don't be full of yourselves." Tsukasa glared at Syr.
However, Syr felt this expression was cute since she knew she had the upper hand at that moment.
On the other hand, Tiona looked at the two with some confusion. After all, even if Tsukasa and Syr seemed to talk to each other, she couldn't hear anything. However, it was normal since he had been using his telekinesis to block his and Syr's voice.
"...Okay." Tsukasa decided to do a retreat strategy, fooling her into believing that he would follow her request, but when they were together, he wasn't going to show mercy toward Syr.
Hearing his answer, Syr smiled and said, "I am his good friend." She was in a better mood and thought she was going to show who the Queen was, so she didn't mind pampering Tsukasa a bit.
"Good friend?" Tiona looked at Syr in doubt, but she knew with Tsukasa's face that there would be many girls who would get close to him.
Anyway, they didn't talk much and walked toward the Hostess of Fertility while talking to each other.
Tsukasa wondered how Tiona was able to search for him, and she told him it was all by coincidence. He looked at Tiona, wondering whether this girl also had a "Luck" in her development ability.
"Hey, where have you been?"
"Tsukasa, sit here!"
"The party won't start without you, you know?"
When Tsukasa, Syr, and Tiona came, they were quickly surrounded by many members of the Loki Familia.
While there were other adventurers, the adventures from the Loki Familia had filled this Hostess of Fertility.
"Come here!" Loki trapped Tsukasa's neck and brought him to sit down on her side.
Tsukasa sat between Loki and Riveria.
On the other hand, Ais sat next to Loki and glanced at Loki several times, seemingly wanting to change their position.
Loki could see Ais's expression, but she ignored it since she didn't want to see Ais and Tsukasa flirt with each other. However, her fragile heart couldn't hold on when she thought her harem would be swayed by Tsukasa in front of her.
"Okay, everyone! Our Loki Familia has become stronger with Ais-tan, who has become Level 6, and Tsukasa, who has become Level 5! Now, let's celebrate it!" Loki raised the wooden mug filled with a beer and shouted, "Cheers!"
"Cheers!"
Everyone also raised their mug high and shouted excitedly!
From now on, the Loki Familia became even stronger!
