Chapter 424 - CH.404: Level Reset (part 4)

( Yuuki's POV )

I was somewhat surprised by our extra guests and the girls quickly explained the reason for their stay.

When I asked Yasaka to check on Ryuu, she convinced her that since she was also a target of the enemy, it was better for her to stay with us.

Mikoto was here simply because of Haruhime, she is a bit overprotective but I had no problem with that, we had plenty of empty rooms after all.

After that conversation we went up to our rooms, Tsukiumi and Matsu accompanied me to mine and we enjoyed our time together.

Later that night we woke up to find multiple presences outside the mansion, My Sekireis and I went down to the living room and soon realized the presences belonged to a bunch of Hydra agents, I threw myself down on the sofa and the girls walked casually to the entrance.

When they left the mansion, sounds of battle soon followed, and that predictably drew our guests down, Hestia, the ever-energetic one, was the first to scream..

Hestia: What's going on? What's all the commotion?

Yuuki: Oh, that. I guess we're under attack.

???: How can you say something like that, being so calm? This is an emergency.

I was inside the mansion to protect our guests but the girl I had rescued along with Hestia didn't take kindly to my carefree attitude when explosions could be heard right outside, The girl's name was Liliruca and the name of another boy in the Hestia family was Bell.

Yuuki: I would barely classify this as an emergency, you're underestimating my family.

Mikoto: Is Haruhime out there?!

Mikoto again showed her concern for Haruhime and ran to the door, but before she could leave, the door opened and the girls returned to the mansion, fespite all the commotion, the girls didn't have a scratch on them.

Haruhime was in her battle mode and Mikoto was somewhat surprised to see her with her hair turned silver and looking completely different from the gentle Haruhime, the girls didn't think of this event as anything serious either, so they went back to their rooms to continue sleeping.

Our guests were surprised and somewhat confused; with nothing else to do, they too returned to their rooms, except for Ryuu, She wasn't wearing her waitress outfit but she was wearing one of my long gray hoodies and baggy shorts, I guess she didn't have any other sleepwear.

Yuuki: You look good in your uniform, but it's nice to see you in something different.

Ryuu showed no change in her expression but the tips of her ears reddened a little; this also happens to Shera sometimes, it's a cute quality of elves.

Ryuu: I think I'm starting to understand that this is just how you are, but shouldn't you be a little more careful?

Yuuki: Trust me, I feel the enemy is preparing something big, so we'll be doing the same.

Ryuu: Well, if there's anything I can help with, let me know.

Yuuki: Oh, I will. For now, good night.

After that small Hydra interference, we went back to sleep and there were no further incidents.

///////////////////

The next morning I had a couple of things planned, but before we left the mansion we received another visit from the Loki family, and this time their goddess was accompanying them.

They didn't seem to be looking for trouble, so I invited them to our mansion, but when we sat down in the living room, I heard a scream behind me.

Hestia: HEY! What's that deceitful goddess doing here?

Loki: What kind of question is that, you shrimp? As far as I know, this isn't your house.

When the two goddesses looked at each other, sparks began to fly; clearly there wasn't much admiration between them.

Yuuki: Hey, try not to start fights in our house. You didn't come all this way for that... Again.

Loki: Hmm, okay. I can be professional, unlike that puffed-up chihuahua.

*Grrrrrrrr*

Hestia began to grumble in annoyance at the presence of the other goddess, but I ignored that.

Yuuki: I suppose the reason for your visit has to do with the attack on your family the other day.

Loki: That's correct. I want to know how much you know?

Yuuki: Are you asking about the group that attacked you, or are you asking about the power your family lost?

The moment I looked at Finn and Bete, I noticed that they were both weaker than before, In this personal world, strength is measured by level, and that remains in the low numbers; like someone at level one very different from someone at level two, They were both seriously injured by the Hydra agent, and the weapons they use are designed to steal power, so the reason they feel weaker is because they were stripped of their levels.

The members of the Loki family exchanged a worried look, revealing that I had been right, but the goddess tried to maintain a cool demeanor.

Yuuki: I suppose you were going to ask afterwards if I can fix their situation, well the answer is yes... but I don't know if I should do that.

Bete: your bastard!!

Bete didn't like me, and he became even more frustrated by the way I was talking about his family's dire situation, he screamed in anger, but her most collected goddess put a hand in front of him to stop him.

Loki: ... Are you going to name your price?
