In this chaotic world, it all started when they found an elf girl.

Chapter 60 The Assembly of the Gods

The next day.

Goddess Astraea left the Court of Stars early to attend the impromptu assembly of the gods.

The so-called assembly of gods, in essence, is a gathering planned by a group of gods every now and then to relieve boredom.

Later, more and more deities participated in these gatherings, and the scale of the event expanded accordingly. The purpose of the event also changed, from simply chatting and joking around to sharing the latest information and exchanging opinions. In addition, it cooperated with the guild and became an event that influenced the entire city.

At the assembly, the gods will also bestow titles upon newly promoted LV.2 adventurers. These titles are essentially another name for the adventurers. Receiving a title signifies that the gods have recognized the person's achievements and is the highest honor.

This assembly of gods was different from the previous ones.

More than 80% of the gods in Orario were present, which is a terrifying number.

On the thirtieth floor of the Tower of Babel, a large number of gods gathered together, making even the spacious hall feel somewhat crowded.

"Lady Freya!"

With a gasp, the gods turned their heads at lightning speed, their gazes all falling on the doorway, where a breathtakingly beautiful figure was reflected in their eyes, causing their hearts to stop beating for a second.

Freya has delicate, fair skin and a flawless, devilish figure. It's as if the concept of the golden ratio originated from her. Her long eyelashes are pitiful, her phoenix eyes are ethereal and otherworldly, and her cheeks are so perfect and beautiful. Every move she makes is captivating.

Many male celebrities seemed to have pink hearts popping into their eyes.

The goddesses glared at Freya through gritted teeth; to them, she was a natural enemy!

"Excuse me." Freya strolled to the front row, her stunning figure captivating even the gods, her voice seemingly able to steal one's soul.

"Lady Freya, please!"

The male gods around him immediately cleared a large area and squeezed in with the other gods.

"Thanks."

Freya smiled calmly and sat down.

"I didn't expect this matter to alarm Lady Freya. It seems they are no ordinary adventurers!"

"Oh no, I'm really motivated!"

"That wicked woman is trying to steal someone else's child again! Little Roy, you have to hold on!"

……

The gods discussed the matter animatedly, and the scene became chaotic for a time.

Freya said, "The protagonist of this divine gathering should not be me, but the children of the Astrea family."

"Yes, yes, Lady Freya is right!"

Freya's words instantly drew the gods' attention back to the Astrea Familia.

The eyes of the gods were fixed on the goddess Astraea, filled with envy, jealousy, and doubt. Reaching LV.2 in seventeen days was truly astonishing.

But they exhausted all language and determined from every angle that Astraea and Roy were not lying.

The Ganesha Familia can also attest that Roy did not possess divine favor when he entered Orario.

Roy's interactions with his neighbors while living in a tent indirectly confirmed that he only did two things after arriving in Orario: recruiting members and helping shopkeepers earn a living.

All evidence suggests that Roy possesses an extremely rare skill that can even affect his growth rate!

For the first time in thousands of years, the gods had witnessed such a thing, and green light emanated from the depths of their eyes.

Fortunately, the goddess Astraea didn't say that Roy had offered himself up, otherwise the gods would probably be so angry they'd vomit blood, wondering why they didn't have such luck.

The gods were quite excited about the title of the fastest leveling adventurer in history.

"I'm going to bestow upon Roy the title I've been pondering for a week: 'Fastest Justice'!"

"Get lost, what a lousy name! My 'Super Cool Thunder Boy' is much better!"

"No, no, no, my 'Sword of Justice' is better, or 'Shattering the Darkness with Thunder' will do!"

"Lady Freya has spoken!"

"What? The head coach is warming up!"

……

While the gods were arguing and giving Roy a title, Roy and Ryu had already left the Star Court.

Roy didn't particularly care about titles; they were purely external things that neither improved his strength nor brought him any benefits.

Roy was well aware of the gods' perverse tastes and enjoyed toying with novice adventurers.

As long as the title isn't too exaggerated, it's fine.

Their destination was the Hermes Familia.

As soon as I stepped into the territory of the Hermes Familia, I was greeted by a handsome and elegant man with a refreshing smile. He had orange hair, orange eyes, was dressed in casual clothes, and wore a hat with feathers.

Behind the male god was a beautiful blue-haired girl, around seventeen or eighteen years old, with delicate features and a strand of white highlights at the front of her hair.

Hermes, the god.

And Asphi Al Andromeda, the leader of the Hermes Familia, a LV.4 adventurer with the title "The All-Powerful One," but publicly declared her rank as LV.2.

"Little Liu, it's been so long!"

Hermes greeted him with a smile.

Liu's expression remained calm. "God Hermes, my visit is unannounced and has caused you much disturbance."

"Rion..."

The blue-haired girl, Asphie, had a complicated look in her eyes; she knew about the destruction of the Astrea Familia.

Her own god loved to travel and never stayed in one place for more than half a month, so she had to follow behind and deal with all sorts of troubles for him.

The two families fought together during the great struggle, never expecting that a long journey would be their last.

Hermes, upon hearing of the destruction of the Astrea and Rudra families, deeply regretted not being present when such an interesting event occurred.

Sensing that something big was about to happen in Orario, Hermes rushed back excitedly.

The two returned to Orario two days ago.

Ryu asked, "Doesn't Hermes participate in the divine assembly?"

"I'm not very interested in naming things."

Hermes waved his hand dismissively, turning his gaze to Roy. "Besides, I'd rather meet him in person, the adventurer who reached LV.2 the fastest in history."

"Greetings, Hermes."

Despite Hermes' seemingly benevolent gaze, Roy remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was on high alert. Among the gods, his fear of Hermes was equal to that of Freya.

Freya's allure is incredibly domineering, but at least she lets you know who's killing you. Hermes's scheming, on the other hand, will make you feel betrayed and still be counting the money for him.

"No need to be so polite. Astraea and I are practically from the same hometown in the Celestial Realm. Her children are my children, and so are my children." Hermes' handsome face was adorned with a warm and cheerful smile.

Roy was speechless. He hadn't even come up with a solution to help the Astrea Familia defeat the Rudra Familia. There was no need for such polite words.

"So... Roy, could you tell me what you're going to do next?" Hermes's eyes seemed to see right through Roy's mind.
