Chapter 132 - Summoning the Dis Sisters

Scene shift.

Raven glanced at his wristwatch again and saw there was still half an hour left.

"Whatever, I'll summon Lagunares now."

With his summoning magic, the Level 9 [Empress] swiftly appeared from the magic circle.

"That woman..."

"It really is her."

Zald squinted his eyes in disbelief.

"Zald?"

"You bastard..."

Just as Lagunares opened her eyes, her expression froze slightly.

Raven returned to the sofa and picked up a glass of premium cocktail.

"Come, let's have a drink."

"Sure thing."

"Guhahaha!"

Zald burst into laughter.

He had once drunk in a tavern with [Heavy Warrior] Gareth and the god Loki—and effortlessly drank both of them under the table.

"Todd—"

Raven pulled out a crystal and called out.

"What is it, Young Master?"

The magic tool immediately transmitted Todd's voice.

"Send me ten crates of booze."

"Understood."

"Right away."

The manager Todd responded promptly and arranged for his staff to bring over the liquor.

Zald grabbed a bottle and downed it in one gulp.

Alcohol, to him, was no different from water.

Seconds later, he set the now-empty bottle down.

"Good stuff!"

"Raven, are you the owner here?"

"I'm more like the man behind the scenes," Raven said as he swirled the wine in his glass with refined elegance.

"Come, Alfia, Lagunares. Let's toast."

The clinking of three glasses rang with a crisp "clang."

Just as they took their first sip...

The door to the private room opened.

"Young Master, your drinks have arrived."

Todd, acting as a server, pushed in a cart stacked with bottles.

In his eyes, the Young Master was no ordinary person—not someone just anyone could hope to meet.

Especially now...

In the middle of this brewing storm, he couldn't allow even the smallest clue to leak out—

That the central figure of the upcoming War Game was here in the casino.

Otherwise, their newly-launched gambling event would be completely ruined.

...

Once the door closed—

Todd turned to the two new faces beside the Young Master.

One of them, a female beastman...

She looked familiar to Todd.

But he couldn't quite place her.

The other one—a burly, intimidating human.

Todd squinted, trying to get a better look.

And then...

His eyes widened in shock, and he sucked in a sharp breath.

That was—

The Demon of Seven Years Ago, Zald?

It couldn't be mistaken.

"What are you standing there for?"

"Bring it over."

Raven's eyes landed on Todd.

"Y-Yes!"

Todd snapped out of it and quickly pushed the cart forward.

"Are all these drinks free?"

Without even glancing at Todd, Zald's eyes were glued to the liquor cart.

"Yes, sir..."

Todd replied softly.

"Drink up, Zald."

Raven smiled lightly.

After all, [Gluttony]'s rare skill allowed him to grow stronger through eating.

A literal cheat code.

[Divine Feast's Blessing]

While active, converts food into stats.

The more energy in the consumed item, the greater the gain.

The boost is permanent.

"Providing me with a feast like this..."

"Really don't know how to thank you."

Zald said, biting off the neck of a wine bottle and chugging with abandon.

As a heavy-armored warrior bearing the [Gluttony] title, once he entered battle—

Every swing of his sword could make all of Orario tremble.

Of course...

He wasn't just a glutton. He could cook, too.

To Zald, killing and eating were two sides of the same coin.

"Todd, you may go."

"I'll call if I need anything."

"Got it, Young Master."

Todd tactfully left the room.

Once outside—

He exhaled deeply.

The tension in his body finally eased.

One thing was certain:

Young Master Raven was going to be a terrifying force in Orario's future.

Thankfully...

He had latched onto this powerful figure.

With Raven backing him, what did he have to fear in this city?

He couldn't help but grin at the thought.

"You seriously don't care how you look when you eat?"

Lagunares looked speechless as she watched Zald devour everything.

"Guhahaha!"

"Old habits die hard."

Zald chuckled.

"That's just how he is."

Alfia, still composed and graceful, barely glanced in his direction.

Raven closed his eyes.

Quietly feeling the temporary power brought on by his level boost.

Hm?

It seemed...

He could still summon one more.

To test his theory—

Raven opened his eyes.

He stood up and began chanting the summoning incantation once again.

"—O Supreme Dark God of the Underworld."

"[—Reincarnation Summon]"

Within the magic circle—

Two petite silhouettes slowly rose into view—twin dark-and-light elves.

The two looked nearly identical in appearance.

But their skin tones—

One fair, the other tanned.

Their revealing outfits resembled those of dancers.

The design of their clothes was mirrored, symmetrical like twin reflections.

—The Dis Sisters.

Raven immediately recognized them.

The pale-skinned elder sister was Dina Dis, a blonde light-elf.

The bronze-skinned younger sister was Vina Dis, a silver-haired dark-elf.

These twin sisters were the leader and vice-leader of the [Alecto Familia].

Both were Level 5, sharing the title: [Dis Sisters].

They stood just around 1.5 meters tall.

Their appearance...

Looked no older than fourteen or fifteen.

Seven years ago—

As members of the Evilus faction, they were arch-rivals of Hegni and Hedin.

After being defeated and slain—

Their experience allowed Hegni and Hedin to ascend to Level 6.

"Oh?"

"More familiar faces?"

Zald raised his brows. He clearly recognized the twins.

"You know them?"

Lagunares asked, puzzled.

To the [Empress], these two didn't seem particularly powerful.

Not even on par with that blood-red monster's claw.

...
