Ethan Under Investigation!

Chapter 31: Ethan Under Investigation!

Freya was surprised to discover Ethan's 'growth'.

Although it was true that the ability values would increase very quickly at the beginning because he had just become an adventurer, it had only been a few days, and he had already gained so much.

It should be noted that the fastest record in the city to upgrade from lv1 to lv2 took a whole year.

And the holder of this record was none other than Ais Wallenstein of the Loki Familia, which had shocked the world at the time.

Now, Ethan had improved so much in just ten days, it felt like there was no suspense at all in surpassing her.

At the same time, under the catalysis of divine blood, the growth called 'excelia' was converted into 'ability values', and Ethan clearly felt the improvement of his own strength.

In particular, his 'magic power' had increased by a large margin, directly surpassing the total amount of magic reserve that Ethan had obtained by absorbing magic stones in the past ten days.

"So this is 'falna'..."

At this moment, Ethan truly understood the benefit of having 'falna'.

As long as one 'worked hard', one would gain something.

Although it was true that different people were not the same, it was undeniable that compared to other worlds, falna's way of improvement was simply too straightforward.

The ability values of falna, after training or actual combat, the excelia obtained will increase the proficiency, the more frequently the attribute is trained, the more prominent the proficiency and gain will naturally be.

If you want to increase your strength, go to battle, go attack, if you want to increase your endurance, bear damage, if you want to increase your magic power, keep using magic, etc. different ways, increase different attributes.

"To be honest, although you have been slacking off a lot these past few days, I am very surprised by this growth. If you were a little more diligent, you might be able to create an unprecedented upgrade record."

As she spoke, Freya made a copy of Ethan's 'status' and handed it to him.

Looking at the increase in his ability values, Ethan nodded, but he was also surprised to see that his 'magic value' had now reached 666 points of C rank.

However, on second thought, it should be because of his frequent use of "Projection Magic" and "Imaginary Number Magic".

Also, before going to bed every night, Ethan would exhaust all of his magic reserves to expand the "Imaginary Space".

In the process, he must have accumulated a lot of "excelia/experience points", right?

Seeing Ethan smile after looking at his "status", Freya's eyes lit up.

This was the first time she had seen him smile so "purely".

It was a smile without any ill intention, a smile from the bottom of his heart.

Coupled with Ethan's already good looks, Freya found him more and more pleasing to the eye.

"That, Freya-sama, look at how much I've improved. Shouldn't you give me a little something?"

However, in less than three seconds, Ethan returned to his usual self.

Freya's eyebrows started twitching. She must have seen an illusion just now. How could this shameless guy have such a nice side?

"Get out~"

"Hey, Freya-sama, you see, I'm so poor now..."

'Bang——'

Once again, Ethan was kicked straight out of bed, and this time with even more force than before.

"If you're not going to give it to me, then don't just kick me away!" Ethan couldn't help but complain.

"What, you have a problem with that?" Freya looked at him with sharp eyes.

"No~no~"

Even though he really wanted to say, "You can actually kick me a few more times," he held back.

Although he already didn't have much of an image left, he still wanted to save some face.

After all, with this amount of force, it was actually no different from a "reward".

If possible, she could kick him all day long.

Freya can't read minds, otherwise she would definitely have collapsed by now.

What she thought was punishment, in the other person's eyes, is 'reward'.

This is a wolf in sheep's clothing, appearing handsome on the surface, but extremely perverse and twisted inside.

On one side, Ethan and Freya's 'secret affairs' are unfolding, while on the other side, the gears of fate quietly begin to turn.

…

Twilight Manor, Loki Familia

In the conference room, the upper echelons of Loki Familia are gathered, along with the goddess Loki herself.

"So, Finn, what have you found out about this 'Ethan'?"

Loki sits on her seat with her legs crossed, looking carefree.

Although she is a little curious why Freya treated Ethan so special, he is still just a child from the lower world, not enough to make her care too much.

Over the past thousands of years, there have been countless "miracles" born from the lower world, and this one is nothing special.

"I didn't find much information, it must have been 'handled' by Freya Familia."

Finn sighs helplessly.

However, it is understandable. Ethan is very likely to be a new star of Freya Familia, and it is natural to protect his information.

The dwarf Gareth and the elf Riveria on the side both look at Finn curiously. The fact that the boy's past has been erased highlights the problem.

After all, if Ethan was an ordinary Familia member, his information would not be treated so cautiously.

After dealing with the Freya Familia for so many years, this is the first time they have seen such a situation.

Therefore, this guy named 'Ethan' is definitely not simple.

"Tell me how much you know~"

Loki spoke, and she also became serious.

Obviously, this goddess also understood the meaning behind this.

"This newcomer named 'Ethan Starfall' came to Orario a month ago and lived in an inn on 'Daedalus Street'. However, the owner of that inn is now missing."

Speaking of this, Finn lowered his head slightly, and the expressions of the others were quite surprised.

No one here is a fool. Ethan was taken away by Freya on the street, and the owner of the inn he lived in disappeared shortly after. It's hard to believe that there is nothing fishy going on.

"That woman is really getting more and more unscrupulous."

Openly killing people in Orario is strictly forbidden. If it is discovered, they will be severely punished.

However, it is too difficult to prove this kind of thing.

Therefore, in the darkness of Orario, this kind of thing happens all the time, and most of them lack evidence for trial.

However, in the case of Freya, in a situation where such 'blatant' behavior can be found out with just a little investigation, only a powerful Familia like hers would dare to do such a thing.

"There is one more important piece of information. This 'Ethan' had already explored the dungeon for more than half a month before joining Freya Familia, and his strength also improved rapidly during this time."

"Huh? You mean he fought monsters in the dungeon without receiving Falna?"

"If nothing else, yes, because there is no other record in the Guild."

Speaking of this, Finn's tone also became serious.

He spent a favor to get this information.

After all, as a neutral organization, the Guild does not disclose adventurer's private information to the public.
