52 Seventh Rank (2/2)

”Tch, fine, I can help you. But my help isn't free, Old Man.”

”Oh?” Odin held his beard as he smiled at Rafi mysteriously.

”How about...” Rafi then neared beside Odin as he whispered some things privately to him, to the curious watch of the onlookers.

”Oho, so that is your goal eh. You are a greedy little one, kid.”

”How is it?”

”That is no problem, but you can't make her cry. Do you understand?”

”Fuuhh, no problem. I know that you really dote on her, Old Man.” Both of them were still in their private discussion when Rossweisse, Serafall and the others neared Rafi and Odin, as they were more curious after seeing Odin's wide grin due to Rafi's words.

”What are you talking about, Rafi?” Serafall tilted her head a bit as she asked Rafi curiously.

”Haha, nothing suspicious, Serafall. I just want Old Man Odin to give me a permission to go to Yggdrasil for a tour.”

”Ohh! Then, could you also bring me later, Rafi?!” She asked excitedly.

”Yeah, of course.”

.....

While his clone had a talk with Odin, Rafi was facing Sun Wukong and Yu-Long in a staring contest.

”So, it looks like only you come, Sun Wukong, Yu-Long.”

”Hehe, the Gods are rather busy. Indra decides it is rather inappropriate for other Gods to deal with a human kid for such joke.”

”Tsk, so it is Indra who prevents other Gods huh. Why is he being such a busybody?!” Rafi muttered to himself after hearing Sun Wukong. As Sun Wukong's words implied that the reason Rafi was 'safe' from other Gods's retaliation was because of Indra's help. Though, unknown to Indra and Sun Wukong, Rafi only saw Indra's action was unnecessary to his plan.

”What do you say kid? How about we continue where we left off previously? Or do you want to follow us peacefully in seeing Indra?”

”Fine. I am rather pissed now! I guess letting off some steams will be fine. Try not to die though, Sun Wukong, Yu-Long!”

.....

Several days after that, the news of Rafi beating Loki, Fenrir, Sun Wukong and Yu-Long spread far and wide, reaching many mythologies's network. At some point when Rafi was fighting Sun Wukong, Loki and Fenrir were released from their seal, and watched Rafi's battle with Sun Wukong and Yu-Long. Rafi, who was still pissed after his plan was ruined by Indra, started to beat Loki as he created more clones to deal with Loki and Fenrir. After venting some steams, Rafi finished beating them after putting them all to unconsciousness.

Rafi then flashed near to Mt. Xumi as he left Sun Wukong and Yu-Long near foot of the mountain. As for Loki, he brought Loki to Odin as he promised. While Fenrir was placed in Avalon as a guard there, after he tamed Fenrir to be his pet with simultaneous use of his suggestion(Rinne-Sharingan) and beating Fenrir repeatedly until his submission.

The news of Rafi easily beating a renowned Buddha, an Evil God, a Dragon King and a God-slaying Wolf made many mythologies took more notice of him, and placed him to the list of people with dangerous power. Because he defeated Fenrir, Rafi was placed at the Seventh rank, replaced Fenrir's position at Ten Strongest Beings of the World. Although, several Gods were suspicious that it was not the extent of his power, as he also dealt with several combatants with God-class power at the same time while dealing with Fenrir.

Although then, his meeting with Ophis and his fight with Vali and co. were being kept only in the know of his circle of acquaintances. As it didn't really matter now, because Ophis didn't make further action after that time of her sudden visit, much to the sceptical guess of several people.

Thus, after finishing their matters in Underworld, Rafi and the students were back to Human world as summer vacation was almost over. Beside that, the student's summer homeworks also already waving to them, as it made several of particularly foreign-transfer students and a lazy pervert were hot on their heels to finish their homeworks in the remaining vacation's time.
