Volume 6 Chapter 324 - Line's Status Update part 1

Somewhere beyond the Heaven(Tenkai), a space of chaotic elements where no being could possibly survive even a God with their Arcanum, suddenly stirred up. Among the vast space, a voice suddenly resounded, "Is it that little tiger…? Or someone with it…?"

The voice sigh, "I never would have thought that the person who could have better potential saving dealing with that once it awakened below more than Zeus' protégé would be some invader…

"I look forward to our meeting in the future."

Late in the afternoon, everyone is gathered around Line who's still blankly staring at her flame magic unmoving.

"It's been five hours now… Are you sure that she's fine?" Sona asked in concern.

Kisuke didn't immediately answer as he observes Line's current state. Aside from unmoving, the Falna of Goddess Loki is also shining behind her. The Mana in the surroundings, on the other hand, is gathering around her and entering her body little by little, "…It looks like she's fine… It seems like the world is helping her because she achieved something…"

Even Kisuke didn't expect this outcome and is already trying to think of the events that could possibly happen in the future because of this. However, it only served as a headache as he doesn't have much information to begin with, 'With the Falna reacting alert Loki too? And is there any record that this happened in this world's history?…' All sorts of similar questions kept popping in Kisuke's head.

But since it already happened, he could only do his best to turn this to his favor, 'It seems like Yoruichi and Kuroka would need more time gathering information.'

A few minutes later, Line's eyes suddenly blinked and her consciousness returned. Her flame magic was suddenly dispelled and she looked around, "Eh? Since when did everyone arrive?"

"…You don't know what happened?" Kisuke asked.

"…What happened?" Line asked back in confusion.

"First… Tell me what you're doing. Don't hide anything."

Line noticed the seriousness in his voice and didn't hesitate to answer her teacher's question, "Let see… The moment I cast that small flame magic, I was immediately attracted to its magic circle. But when I stared at it, it seems that I can see and feel that inner intricacies of the magic circle. Thanks to that, I'm now able to control Mana better."

Kisuke went silent for a moment before asking, "How long do you think you've stared at the magic circle?"

"Erm… I think it should be only a minute or two."

"You've been staring at it for at least five hours."

"Eh?… Five hours?"

"Five hours."

"Eh… Eh!? That's impossible!" Line immediately retorted. She couldn't even go unmoving for an hour or two, let alone five hours.

"Let's go out for now." Kisuke decided. It's useless to explain it to her since it seems that she's unaware of the most things that happened to her.

The group exited the Dungeon and went outside of the tower, "… It's already this late?… Did I really stand there for five hours?"

"Well then, Arshe-san… Please tell me if you're feeling any different."

Line stopped for a moment and did a self-reflection and she was surprised at what she found out, "… I can perceive Mana much easier…"

"Hmmm… Let's go home for now."

"What should I do?"

"For now, inspect anything you can do…" Kisuke then suddenly thought of something, "You can't really escape it so ask Loki-sama later to update your status and find out what's different."

Line nodded in agreement, "Okay… I have to do it secretly, right?"

"If possible, convince her to keep quiet about your status before you get an update," Kisuke added.

"Alright." Line then bowed to everyone, "Thank you very much for today."

"Take care. And don't forget to study the book."

"Understood… But what if someone sees this book?"

"Well, it won't be that much of a problem. Only you would be able to understand that because of my lessons these past few days. Maybe someone out there could do so like Riveria Ljos Alf from your Loki Familia, so be careful around her."

After a few more reminders and instructions Line separated from Kisuke's group and immediately went home.

The first thing she did when she reached the Twilight Manor is to look for Loki. Along the way, Line came across an Elf with jade-colored hair that reaches her waist, "Riveria-sama, good evening."

"Line… Good evening. Did you go to the Dungeon today?" Riveria looked towards the girl who greeted her.

"Yes. I just came home."

"I see. Then you must not have heard the announcement yet."

"Announcement?" Line tilted her head in confusion.

"No one is to go to Dungeon until our next expedition in 5 days unless you have special permission, so get some rest or hang out with other kids."

Line was a bit surprised, but she already expected it, "…Thank you for your reminder." 'Special permission, is it?' Line thought as she bowed down in respect, "By the way, Riveria-sama. Have you seen Loki-sama? I need to talk about something with her."

Riveria thought for a moment before answering, "I think she's in the lounge with other girls."

"Thank you very much, and good night." Bidding her farewell, Line immediately left.

Unbeknownst to her, Riveria followed her with her eyes until she got out of her vision, "Something's different about her… But what is it…" Riveria muttered.

In the lounge, Loki is having a small talk with Ais, Tione, and Tiona when Line entered the room.

The moment she stepped in, all their gaze went to her and she became nervous because of it. While Ais, Tione, and Tiona's stare are that of curiosity, Loki's expression became serious as she opened her eyes slightly to get a better look at Line.

However, she didn't let her children the change in her expression so her face immediately reverted back, "Yo~, Line-chan~! What brings you here?"

As the only one who saw her change of expression, Line swallowed a mouthful of saliva, 'She noticed something…' While keeping her composure in check, she asked, "Loki-sama, may I have a bit of your time?"

"Yay~. A cute girl is inviting me for a night date~! Let's go!" Running towards her, Loki suddenly grabbed her waist and brought her away leaving the dumbfounded trio.

"Eh~~~!?" Line could only let out a confused and frustrated noise as she is dragged away.

"…Is it okay to leave them?" Tiona asked.

"Well, nothing bad will happen, probably." Tiona didn't really care.

Ais only stared at the door where the two left but immediately returned her attention to the two Amazoness to discuss their Dungeon exploration tomorrow.

Inside her room, Loki let down the disgruntled Line and closed the door before sitting on the couch.

"Tell me what happened? Why did you suddenly awaken the Mage developmental ability without your Falna being updated?" Loki went straight to the point. She immediately noticed the Mana or Mind surrounding her as if she's the same as any other high-level rearguard Adventurers.

"Mage developmental ability?"

"You don't know? Well, let's update your status before we talk so that we could see what really happened." Loki demanded her to sit and strip down.

Line didn't move, "Loki-sama…"

"Hmm?"

"Before that… Please promise me that you won't leak anything regarding my Falna to anyone."

Loki's expression became serious once more, "Why?"
