After listening, the dwarf youth to Loki's left joined the conversation.
"I am Finn Timna, the current leader of the Familia. I hope to enjoy the game with you all in the future."
Although Finn looks like a boy, he is actually forty-two years old and has far more experience than his companions. He is trusted by everyone in the Familia.
After Loki and his captain finished speaking, they began the formal conversation.
"Regarding the war game we're about to play, as we mentioned downstairs, it's not about betting everything, but about winning three orders with some reservations. I hope Chairman Baili has no objections?"
"There is no difference."
"Haha, that makes things easier. I have some ideas about the match; may I explain them first?"
"kindness."
Baili nodded.
The girls sat down beside him, intending to hear what Loki had to say.
The goddess before everyone cleared her throat, maintaining her relaxed demeanor as she raised her right hand and extended her index finger.
"I hope that the war game will be held in stages, rather than being decided by chaotic team battles."
"That's definitely how it should be."
"Oh, it seems we share the same idea, President Baili."
"Since we're going to divide it into phases, let's make it three phases. No more, no less, just right."
"Three? Does President Baili mean he's already decided?"
Loki still squinted, a curious expression on his face.
Baili then responded
"One is a team battle, one is an individual battle, and there is a special battle that is redefined by both sides."
"That sounds interesting and makes sense. Was the special operations strategy something we devised together after the first two were completed?"
"That's right, that would be much more interesting."
"Haha, I think there's nothing wrong with it."
Loki laughed.
At this point, Finn couldn't help but ask...
"Since there are three stages and three different battles, then... will this war game adopt a best-of-three system?"
Upon hearing this, Loki stopped laughing and quietly waited for Baili's reply.
Baili then shook his head.
"There's no need to add a best-of-three rule. As long as you win one game, it's considered a loss for my side."
"Quite confident, President Baili. Didn't you ever think your companions would lose to us?"
Loki became slightly serious.
Baili didn't answer, but just looked around.
The girls living on both sides shared the same thought at that moment.
"I will win the game."
"I have no intention of losing to anyone anymore."
"I'm a little uneasy... but I won't lose."
Zhu Nai, Xiao Mao, and Jian Zi made slightly different statements, but they all came to the same conclusion: they would win.
The last to speak, Yukino, looked at Loki, Irei, and VIX Tera IX Mami in front of her.
"If Baili needs victory, then he should win."
This is the awareness of the young girls.
As soon as he finished speaking, Ais, who was next to Loki, became unusually serious.
"Loki, I will fight with all my might."
"Thank you, Ais-chan, let's give each other a hug... Waaah!"
Loki, who was about to give Ais a bear hug, was immediately elbowed.
the Commission
Loki had to stop what he was doing, clutching his waist and chuckling.
"Just like you all say, my little Ais is a woman of her word and she's very serious."
"I don't mean to be absolute; I just want to fight against the strong."
Ais, who has been stuck at LV5 for three years, continues to challenge formidable opponents.
Ais hoped to use this to break through her current level, but nothing changed and she couldn't see any signs of growth, which frustrated her greatly.
Now that a formidable foe has emerged, Ais hopes to overcome this challenge that will allow her to transcend her current level.
Regarding team battles, how many players can be on the field in total?
"A maximum of ten people."
Baili provided detailed settings.
Ten people?
The three members of Loki's Familia all looked puzzled.
Because they saw that Baili was surrounded by only four girls, and no one else.
If there are ten, there won't be enough people on site.
"Don't worry, I'll send someone over."
Bai Li had already decided to call Rias, Mai, and Asia over, who were going back to rest.
This is a rare opportunity to confront a powerful enemy, and we cannot afford to miss it.
"Does that mean we'll have guild members participate in this war game?"
"No, they're my people, not really related to the guild; but... well, you could say my people are related to the guild, right?"
Baili, stroking his chin, began to agonize over some details.
Loki smiled.
"It's alright, it's alright. As long as Chairman Baili thinks it's fine, we can accept it. So, how long should we set the time? Tomorrow or the day after tomorrow?"
"The day after tomorrow, then we can start preparing."
"Okay, then the day after tomorrow."
"Regarding the venue for the competition..."
"We've already thought of something: a town ruin located to the northwest of Orario city. What do you think?"
Loki begins - Moon*Ripples, / Lu Yi (Seven) 1 (Two) Baxia seeks advice.
Finn, on the other hand, explained...
"The town to the northwest was originally part of Orario, but that was a long time ago; not long after Orario was built, it was frequently attacked by monsters that had escaped from the dungeons in the past, so people chose to abandon the town in order to defend key areas."
There are many stories about Orario from the past.
It can now be used as a battlefield.
Loki arranged all of this; it's unclear whether it was to their advantage.
If there were a trap over there, it would be a test for the girls around them.
At this moment, Hestia, who had taken Demeter and Hephaestus to the balcony for a conversation with the goddesses, returned to the scene.
She was slightly tipsy before, but has recovered quite a bit now.
"I overheard the conversation just now. How do you know there's a place outside the city that's suitable as a battlefield?"
Hestia looked on with suspicion.
Loki's explanation was also watertight.
"The traveling merchants who came to Orario told us that they had seen a group of mercenaries stationed there, and they left behind a lot of training stakes before they left. From this, we can infer that... Moreover... the Ganesha Familia cooperated with us to investigate because they were worried about the threat posed by mercenaries outside the city. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask the Ganesha Familia directly."
"All right……"
Hestia's doubts were resolved, and she didn't say anything more.
The other two goddesses had no reason to participate in the conversation; they simply looked at Baili and waited for him to make a decision.
"Do you have anything to say?"
Baili asked the girls around him.
Yotsuya Miko raised her right hand.
"Me me me."
"Why are you acting like a student... What are you trying to say?"
"Will there be an audience after the war game starts?"
"You get nervous?"
"I always feel uncomfortable being stared at..."
Miko Yotsuya used to be stared at by a ghost, and that feeling was unpleasant.
The same applies to people nowadays.
"You need to overcome this." (For super-exciting novels, visit Feilu Novels!)
Baili's answer was quite simple.
Loki then laughed and said
"There probably won't be many spectators. Most likely, they'll be the main gods and some members of the Familia, since Orario is a rather busy city."
Of course……
