Chapter 110 – Instant Kill of the Gulliver Brothers

On the way back to Hestia's family, Aston sensed the aura of Tione and the others engaged in battle, causing his eyebrows to furrow slightly. He recognized the force unleashed as his own magic, Hurricane Blade, which he had enchanted on Tiona's weapon, Urga, during their time in the dungeon.

After pondering for a moment, Aston swiftly picked up a puzzled Marie and, wrapped in a gust of wind, leaped towards the source of the battle.

This magical outburst was so powerful that it was felt by all first-class adventurers in Orario, not just those involved in the fight. However, except for the parties directly involved, other families' first-class adventurers only looked towards the direction of the battle without approaching.

Both Freya and Loki Familias were fully mobilized. Both Ottar and Finn's groups felt the battle involved their Familia members. Recognizing the seriousness of the fight, they naturally needed to be present.

Meanwhile, at the battlefield, as Tiona and others engaged in battle, everyone within a kilometer radius evacuated the area. The fame of the parties involved in Orario meant that as soon as people recognized who was fighting, everyone left immediately, not daring to stay. The fighting strength of first-class adventurers is not to be taken lightly; staying in the area could result in accidental death if caught in the crossfire.

"What exactly is going on?" Loki, in the Loki Familia office, stared in the direction of the battle from his window, frowning in thought.

Aston, Ottar, and Finn's groups arrived at the battlefield almost simultaneously. When Aston arrived, Tiona was using the Hurricane Blade Aston had added to Urga to contend with the four pallum brothers, while Ais and Tione were jointly suppressing Allen Fromel. They had Allen completely under control.

"Tiona, what's happening here?" Aston asked, placing Marie behind him and looking at the two battle scenes with a slight frown.

As soon as Aston spoke, several figures descended from the sky, landing on the rooftops around them. They were members of the Freya Familia, including Ottar, two Level 6 elves, and the three heads of Loki Familia, Finn, Bete and Gareth.

The battle sides stopped fighting immediately and retreated to their respective groups. This formed a three-way standoff, creating a delicate atmosphere at the scene. Although Aston's side was a newly established Familia and couldn't compare in status or force with the other two, neither Ottar nor Finn's group underestimated Aston. They felt a sense of danger from him, treating him as an equal.

"Ottar, can I take this as the will of Goddess Freya?" Finn nodded to Aston as a greeting and then turned his attention to Ottar, asking with a faint smile.

"No, it's just their decision," Ottar responded after a moment of silence, unable to admit the truth. The action of Allen and others was indeed the will of their Goddess, Freya, and arranged by her, but he couldn't acknowledge it.

Because if Ottar really admitted to it, the Freya Familia and the Loki Familia would definitely start a major Familia war.

At this time, Freya would absolutely not allow such a situation to occur. After all, she hasn't yet brought the mysterious and unpredictable new adventurer, Aston, into her embrace.

"I see," Finn said, nodding slightly and then calmly speaking, his words filled with an undeniable sense of authority. "Since it's not Goddess Freya's will but their own decision, then the compensation for this unilateral action cannot be less. Otherwise, I will not let this go easily." If it had been a simple clash, he wouldn't have much thought about it, but the recent fight had obviously gotten serious, causing significant damage to the surrounding buildings. The punishment from the Guild wouldn't be a small amount, and the Loki Familia would definitely not bear it since the Freya Familia instigated the trouble.

"I understand. The damages caused here will be borne by the Freya Familia," Ottar, as the head of the Freya Familia, promptly agreed to Finn's terms, knowing what he meant.

"Then," Ottar was about to take his leave with Allen when he was interrupted.

"The members of the Freya Familia, since you've settled matters with the Loki Familia, it's time to settle things between us," Aston said with a smile, cutting off Ottar.

At this, everyone's gaze fell on Aston. They all frowned, showing signs of confusion.

"What do you mean, Aston? This matter shouldn't concern you, should it?" Ottar asked calmly.

"Gulliver brothers, step forward," Aston ignored Ottar's question, his gaze coldly falling on the four brothers.

Everyone's attention then shifted to the four pallums.

"What do you mean, you brat?" Alfrigg, the eldest, stepped forward, his face under the helmet turning dark. Although they felt danger from Aston, being called out so bluntly made him feel he was being take too lightly.

The other three reacted similarly.

"Stop dawdling, come down here," Aston said, patting Marie's head reassuringly before leaping down from the rooftop, looking up and calling out to the four.

Everyone watched as the four brothers descended, wondering whether they would fight back or swallow their pride.

Clearly, the Gulliver brothers were not the type to back down. All four brothers jumped down, standing before Aston.

"Then, let's begin," Aston said, his lips curling slightly as he swiftly drew his knight's sword.

As Aston unsheathed his sword, the four brothers did not hesitate. They spread out quickly, encircling Aston.

Their attacks were tricky, and even a Level 6 adventurer would be hard-pressed to handle their combined assault.

However, Aston remained calm in the face of their attack, slowly raising his knight's sword.

"Instant Kill!"

Blood sprayed into the air.
