When Ais saw Takumi, her eyes immediately lit up.
"Lord Takumi!"
Seeing him, she quickly stood up and greeted him. Ais had great respect for Takumi.
"Ais-chan. I've come, wo~"
Hearing Takumi say that, Ais couldn't help but smile wryly. Even her usually expressionless face showed a trace of helplessness.
"Please, have a seat, Lord Takumi. Just now, Lord White Yasha also arrived in another world. And it seems she even caught a couple of dragons."
Hearing this, Takumi raised his eyebrows.
"Caught a couple of dragons?"
He was genuinely puzzled, so he immediately opened the group chat.
And there, he saw the messages sent by White Yasha:
White Yasha: [Image] [Captured two dragons.] [White Ice Dragon and Blazing Flame Dragon.] [Their names are Velzard and Velgrynd.] [Which world is this?]
Hourai Kaguya: [Not sure, maybe I haven't seen it yet.]
Himeko: [I think I vaguely remember it!!]
Zhongli: [A world of dragons?]
Many in the group were chatting about it.
After seeing this information, Takumi raised his brows again.
Takumi: [That's the world of That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime.] [Those two should be Veldora's older sisters.]
Seeing Takumi appear in the chat, White Yasha glanced at the two dragons she had captured and was also quite surprised. She started asking questions and quietly began searching for the anime Takumi had mentioned.
Takumi hadn't expected it to be that world.
Speaking of which, Rimuru ended up becoming extremely powerful, eventually mastering imaginary space, spatial domination, and multi-dimensional barriers. He wondered how far Rimuru had progressed now.
"Is that world really strong?" Ais asked curiously.
She hadn't had time to check the group files, so she could only ask Takumi.
"Yes, very strong. That world was created by the Star King Dragon Veldanava. It includes many races—goblins, demi-humans, lizardmen, and more."
"And in that world, monsters can evolve if given names by others. If someone gives them a name, their power increases and they undergo evolution."
Takumi briefly explained the world's structure.
After hearing this, Ais was amazed. Loki and Hestia were also very surprised.
So many different races? That world was clearly full of interesting things.
"Your world still has some time before it merges with the others. Ais, would you like to come with me?"
After the brief explanation, Takumi extended an invitation to Ais.
Before Ais could answer, Loki responded immediately:
"Go! Of course, we're going! Bring our entire familia with us. Please take us along!"
Indeed, this time she planned to bring everyone from her familia. Since Takumi offered, they had no reason not to go. With the worlds merging, it would be beneficial to get familiar with the other side early.
Ais nodded after hearing Loki's words. Since Loki had decided, she would go too.
"Alright, then let's depart later today."
Since they were all willing to go, Takumi naturally agreed. That other world needed people to help with the merging process. If the Loki Familia were willing to assist, that was perfect.
Seeing this, Hestia couldn't help but speak up:
"Then can I come too?"
She really wanted to go! She was so curious about other worlds now.
"Why are you trying to butt in, shorty? Isn't it fine for you to stay here and be a side character?" Loki glared at her viciously.
She suddenly found Hestia extremely annoying.
"What's it to you? Do I need your permission to go?" Hestia glared back, refusing to back down.
Takumi didn't say anything. Why did she get to decide?
"What are you even going to do there? You'll just be in the way." Loki scowled. Clearly, Hestia would just cause trouble.
"That's not true! I can help too! After unsealing my divine power, I'm still very strong!"
Was she being looked down on? Even if Hestia's strength was considered the weakest among the Twelve Olympians, she was still powerful.
Even a little strength was better than none.
Takumi saw the two starting to argue and couldn't help but be amused. These two really didn't get along.
Seeing the situation, Takumi finally interjected:
"Alright, enough. Since Hestia wants to come, let her come. It won't be a problem. We'll set off after a short rest."
He stopped them before things could escalate. Who knew how long they'd argue otherwise?
Both of them snorted and stopped talking.
Loki just found her extremely annoying! The real reason? Why did that damn loli have so much fat in her chest!?
That was what irked her most.
After all, she was flatter than Takumi!
Takumi stayed with the Loki Familia for a while.
Soon, the person sent out to buy food returned.
Loki brought out the fine wine she had gotten from the god of wine and shared it with Takumi. When it came time to offer some to Hestia, she was obviously reluctant.
The high-ranking members of the Loki Familia also arrived.
Loki explained that they would soon head to another world to help out.
Everyone was surprised to hear this.
Seeing their reactions, Takumi added:
"If you go help, Ais can gain benefits. Who knows, maybe she'll grow much stronger."
Everyone's eyes lit up.
They all knew how Ais had gotten stronger—someone had commissioned her to forge a weapon, and she had used the points earned to enhance herself. With just one enhancement, she had become the strongest in their familia.
And everything required points.
Now Ais had a chance to gain points again?
Did that mean she could become even stronger?
They had even heard that members could invite others into the group.
But Ais didn't have enough points.
If she could invite Loki later and do another enhancement—
Hiss!!
