Chapter 317
Many h it was a short period of tiot proper professional support frorew healthier and more safely under a person’s care than by itself, especially if the person was a gardener with expert knowledge Likewise, one could see Ho Lactea as an adept gardener The kind who helped seeds properly lay their roots into the earth and gave them nutrients daily without fail Thus, it wasn’t a coincidence that Yunael Tania ed to reach silver rank in just a couple of months
Of course Yunael also worked their hardest, but a large part of their progress was thanks to Ho Lactea’s ement As a result, Yunael—the hero full of desire to prove themselves, successfully achieved Silver I At this rate, Yunael would reach gold rank any time now
Yunael walked confidently out of the White Horse General’s temple Eyes shot toward Yunael wherever they walked Their fa speed at which they had progressed since the drafting event Yunael enjoyed their gazes and found a suitable place to sit Then they closed their eyes like Aida and heightened their hearing while pretending to be resting Their surroundings were already in a buzz, and Yunael wondered what those people were saying about theain”
“What? Already?”
“I’m sure of it I heard Yunael say ‘thank you and I ork harder’ when I was praying alongside them”
“Hold on a second Last time, they were at Silver II, so that must mean they are already Silver I now…”
Yunael's chest see
“That’s insane Isn’t their progress faster than even Ru Amuh’s?”
“Don’t be an idiot You can’t compare his time and now It’s just incoht?”
“Yeah You ht not know because you came as part of the ninth reinforcements, but the situation on Liber had been brutal even when the seventh recruits arrived Heroes didn’t get to live in a city like this They had to scavenge in the forest for scraps to eat and had no place to shi+eld theled
“That’s certainly true The environment is very important after all”
“Not only that, but Yunael also has Ho Lactea backing them”
“Yes, you have to consider Ho Lactea But still, they are iredient is, it is still up to the chef’s skills to make it shi+ne”
“Butthe amount of attention they put on just one person”
Yunael grew angrier the more they listened to the conversation Who were these heroes calling an ingredient? In a rage, Yunael was about to glare at theed the topic
“By the hat happened to that other hero?”
“Who?”
“Ah, you know, the only hero a the tenth reinforcements that Seven Stars drafted”
“Ah~ I think her nahtened to their peak when they heard the name, ‘Aida’
“Now that you? Seven Stars are usually so quiet”
“That’s so true Honestly, it’s sohts boast about every little thing they do But Seven Stars keep things to themselves too inal
“Those guys speak with actions rather than words For all we know, they old rank”
Yunael snorted at this, but a part of them felt anxious What if what they said was really true?
‘No, there’s no way’ After all, there were three tests that one needed to pass to be proold rank alone
“But it’s really strange In Shalyh alone, there are six Gods Three froue But no one has seen that hero in any of the temples”
It was then one of the heroes said what Yunael wanted to say all along
“Does that mean she hasn’t even made a contract with a God, much less rise in ranks?”
Yunael nodded veheree hat you say, but it’s really strange” It was then another hero spoke “Shouldn’t she be unable to wield her powers properly without a contract? But apparently, there’s a hero itnessed her using her powers”
“What? How? She isn’t even one of the Celestial Lights”
“Yes, it doesn’t make sense But I heard another ruulped in anticipation
“You kno that hero named Aida is those rare priestess types”
“Oh yeah, I heard that”
“I heard that except for the White Horse General, all five of the other Gods were desperate to get their hands on her to make her their saintess Yet she apparently rejected all of theot up from their seat They didn’t want to listen anymore
“In the end, it sounds like Aidato be so outside otherwise…”
As Yunael walked, the voices grew fainter Their face was downcast This hy Yunael hadn’t wanted to join Ho Lactea or any of the Celestial Lights No matter how much they worked, in the end, people would say that it was thanks to Ho Lactea that they achieved anything Of course, Yunael adreat support to them Yunael received a full set of equipment that they would have otherwise not been able to even dream of and found work to help accumulate merits Furthermore, they provided Yunael with skilled companions each time to accomplish these works Yunael admitted that Ho Lactea had provided therow
…Yes, it would’ve been stranger if they hadn’t progressed this ed them even more It was as if they had chosen to tie the else that further stoked their rage
‘Why Aida…!’ The heroes’ assessh they concluded their thoughts on Yunael in a couple of sentences, they were endlessly curious about Aida
‘I also have been tryingthe square, Yunael stopped walking Whenever they passed by this place, they glanced at the Seven Stars’ zone Today, they looked at it fro at it for a while, Yunael called upon their device and sent a ot a response soon, and it didn’t take long for a fa to the square
“Aida! Here!” Yunael purposefully raised their voice and shouted
“It’s been a while Have you been doing well?” Aida asked
“Of course! I…” Yunael couldn’t finish their sentence once Aida got closer with a s out of her Yunael was fay as Yunael and Aida had wandered across a couple of worlds together
“Have you awakened your powers?” Yunael asked
Aida neither admitted nor denied it
“To which God did you make a contract?”
“I haven’t been able to make a contract yet”
“Why?”
“I haven’t met a God suitable forher growth system yet, but hoas she able to recover her lost powers?
“How does that even make sense?” Yunael asked, and Aida didn’t answer Aida didn’t lie, and when there were things she couldn’t say, she si so
“Aida~ Can’t you tellyou to showHm?” Yunael continuously pleaded, but Aida remained firm
“By the way, didn’t you say that you were promised divine blood, Yunael?” Aida suddenly asked
