*World of the Gods, Labyrinth City Orario.*
Orario, known as the center of the world and the only city with a Dungeon, was considered the strongest city in the world. This was due to the presence of many first-class adventurers and several Gods residing in the city.
For this reason, Orario was deemed the strongest city.
However, despite housing numerous strong adventurers, the city was currently in chaos. Several Gods had been eagerly awaiting the arrival of what could be a legendary character, and many of them had their eyes on the city gates.
Unfortunately, days had passed, and this character had yet to appear. This disappointment led many Gods to move on with their lives rather than waiting aimlessly.
However, this did not quell the chaos; it intensified. If the 'Champion' did not appear, they only needed to search for their Goddess. Thus, the Hestia Familia was 'visited' by various Gods in search of a certain chibi Goddess.
This made the lazy Goddess restless, and the same fate befell Hephasteus, who accompanied her friend in her misfortune.
And it wasn't just Hestia and Hephasteus suffering from this misfortune. There were jealous adventurers listening to their Gods talk about someone who had not yet appeared, their eyes sparkling with excitement.
Especially the Goddesses, for whom the Champion was like an idol. This displeased the jealous adventurers.
"A legendary being?"
"A world savior?"
"Bullshit! I don't even know you!"
This was the sentiment of 90% of male adventurers in Orario.
"Tch! What a damn mess! A Champion? Don't make me laugh; it's surely just another bastard."
Spitting on the ground, walking with hands in his pockets, was a young man of about 20 with gray hair and amber eyes, a blue tattoo on his face. However, he had animal ears and a tail, revealing he belonged to the Werewolf race.
Needless to say, this young man did not belong to the Human race.
"Don't be disrespectful, Bete. The Champion is a person worthy of admiration. Besides, it's not like you could save a world."
Beside him, a beautiful woman with jade-colored hair and eyes, belonging to the Elf race, responded. Her name was Riveria Ljos Alf. She scolded the werewolf, knowing that he was only jealous and tarnishing the reputation of someone admired even by the Gods.
"Tch..."
Clicking his tongue, Bete turned away in displeasure. He was tired of all this nonsense, but unfortunately, he couldn't do anything. The Champion was a bomb among the Gods, leaving him helpless.
"Well, could you guys calm down? You're bothering Ais."
Waving her hands between them was a well-known Goddess, Loki. Looking at both sides, Loki sighed, understanding Bete's jealousy and Riveria's admiration. Bete's pride had been hurt as Gods often compared their children to Champions, urging them to be like them. However, Champions were not like cabbages that could be harvested at will.
"However, Orario is very lively, isn't it?"
"Um! Lively."
"...."
Trying to lighten the tense atmosphere, the Amazon sisters blinked continuously, looking at each other before turning to look at Ais. Her face was as expressionless as always.
"Though it's lively, it's funny that it's all like this because of someone who hasn't appeared yet."
Responding with a sigh to the sisters, Tione and Tiona, was a blond-haired boy with blue eyes and fair skin. Despite his appearance, this boy, Fin Dimuna, was the captain of the Loki Familia and a Pallum.
"Right."
Agreeing with his words was a short man with a huge beard, also not human but a Dwarf named Gareth Landrock. Like Fin, he shared the same thought – someone who hadn't come to the city yet causing such commotion. It made them wonder how special that person could be to stir chaos among the Gods just by being mentioned.
"Ah~ I know, I know, but it's all because of that chibi."
Shaking her head, Loki regretted visiting that foolish Goddess. After all, if it weren't for her, none of this would have happened.
"..."
However, for Ais, Loki's words made her narrow her eyes. Like the Gods, she had been eagerly anticipating the arrival of the Champion. Someone whose essence was not allowed to lose. Needless to say, she had been questioning Loki about the Champion, their deeds, and what made them special. Loki didn't hesitate to spill the beans, revealing information about other worlds, other Gods, and the immense power of Champions.
(Ais-san...)
Feeling the immense pressure from Ais, a beautiful young woman with long blonde hair and dark blue eyes, also an Elf, nervously looked at Ais. Her name was Lefiya Viridis. Like Riveria, she had pointed ears, indicating her Elf race. She wondered what was happening with Ais; she had been acting strangely for days.
"Well, let's not worry about this. It's not like the Champion will just appear out of nowhere... Let's go to the Fertility Hostess; we need to get drunk."
"I agree."
"Same here."
Agreeing with her Goddess's words, the whole group followed Loki. After all, each of them was one of her children, first-class adventurers, forming the core of the Loki Familia.
"Uh?"
However, as they headed to the tavern, they saw their Goddess stop, simultaneously opening her eyes and mouth in shock as she looked in a certain direction.
