Chapter 612: Skadi! The Orario Dungeon! Ais!
"Ren, where did you go?" Guinaifen was grilling meat. Sushang, beside her, asked curiously when she saw him approaching.
"Nothing. I went out and collected a few… women."
"Click!" Everyone's hands paused. Their expressions varied.
Sushang and Guinaifen's mouths were agape. Tingyun's foxy eyes were both helpless and felt it was natural. Qingque wanted to retort, "Wow! He's so straightforward!" Fu Xuan indeed had a hashtag on her forehead.
He teleported behind her and embraced her. "I know you might be angry, so I'm here to help you vent."
"Huh?" his actions left her full of questions, but soon her anger was drowned out by another emotion.
Amidst the beautiful mountain scenery, a beautiful melody played. The original camping trip became strange. Qingque, sitting on a stool, took a big bite of grilled meat. "As expected of Ren. He extinguished the Grand Diviner's anger so quickly." Suddenly, her eyes widened. "Wow! So bold! Grand Diviner, you can do it!" She immediately started cheering.
Sushang and Guinaifen were red-faced, pretending to grill meat, yet their eyes uncontrollably darted in that direction.
Fu Xuan, with a sliver of rationality, supported herself against a tree, biting her lips. She had only one thought: "Qingque! You just wait!" But this last sliver was completely drowned out; his 'fire-extinguishing' therapy was incredibly effective.
"Sigh…" Tingyun sighed. Her benefactor never got boring. However, a gentle smile graced her lips. This was Ren's last camping trip before leaving this world. Of course, he would take care of everyone. Fu Xuan was just the first.
"Splash!!!" It was the surging of ocean waves and the pervasive smell of fish, yet before her eyes was only a dry, dusty wilderness. A single figure stood. A tall girl wearing a black, fin-shaped hat and peculiar black attire. Her almost floor-length, silver-white hair swayed slightly. She held a black greatsword, even longer than she was. The girl's wine-red eyes were vigilantly scanning her surroundings.

Her eyes narrowed, thinking it was an enemy. But the light screen was not. Just as she was momentarily stunned, the ground burst open. Out rushed large, abstract monsters, covered in viscous liquid, attacking her.
Despite a moment of surprise, she did not let down her guard. Her eyes instantly sharpened, and the greatsword swung out. "Splash!" it seemed to churn with ocean waves. No matter what the light screen was, the monsters had to be cleared. Because… she couldn't bleed on land, or it would summon more.
Orario. Dungeon. Adventurers explored for money and fame. On a certain floor, a party had just cleared all the monsters. It wasn't difficult. They were from the Loki Familia, one of Orario's powerful Familias.
"Everyone, let's rest, then prepare to return," the captain, Finn Deimne, a Pallum of petite stature but immense power and wisdom, announced.
"Huh? We're going back already? I still have energy!" Bete Loga, the werewolf, seemed full of vigor, his gaze drifting towards a golden-haired girl with an expressionless face.
"Bete, don't be impulsive. Our supplies are barely enough for the return trip," the adult Elf woman with long green hair, Riveria Ljos Alf, the Vice-Captain, used facts to dispel his notion.
As for Ais… Riveria looked at the calm, seated golden-haired girl. She possessed a beauty no less than a Goddess, her temperament like that of a fairy. She appeared cold, but in reality, she was just naturally clumsy and a bit stubborn.
Ais wasn't paying attention to Bete at all. She quietly looked ahead, waiting.

"???" She instinctively reached for the sword at her waist. The others noticed and instantly became vigilant.
The two dark-skinned twin sisters, Tione and Tiona Hiryute, asked with shining eyes, "Ais, is there an enemy?"
"…" However, she suddenly released the hilt, then shook her head faintly.
"???" Everyone was full of questions. But she was already focused on the seemingly harmless thing called the Doomsday Chat Group.
