Hyacine and Barbara have the potential of great emperors; as long as they don't fall today, they will surely become top-tier Adventurers in the future!
"From the first moment I saw you, I knew you weren't ordinary people. I didn't expect Ouranos to turn you into Deliverers... Honestly, did that old man never think about your well-being?"
To other Familias, Loki isn't considered a good deity; after all, at the Denatus, she was the one who had the most fun giving people ridiculous names. But toward children with the potential to join her own, Loki could also show great kindness.
"But I'm different. I truly pity you! To be stuck with such a thing? Don't you know Ouranos's intentions?"
Deliverer... Heh!
This term is truly laughable; just hearing those three words, Loki couldn't stop her laughter, even needing to use alcohol to make herself appear normal.
Because it's simply a massive joke!
"Child of God," who would have thought a god actually created such a thing? And two of them at once!
If a Child of God were allowed to live like an ordinary person, they would likely be just that for the rest of their lives, without anything remarkable.
But if carefully nurtured, they would definitely become the strongest in the world, even surpassing the entire world to reach the realm of gods.
Although she didn't know which old friend created the Children of God, they definitely had no good intentions, even the Great God Ouranos!
Why would Ouranos give out the title of "Deliverer" without hesitation? Why would he give these two girls preferential treatment in this city?
Even Zeus and Hera of the past couldn't do that!
Because a Child of God is bound to save the world, Ouranos must tie them to the great ship of Orario; without a proper reason, he likely wouldn't let Hyacine and Barbara leave the city easily.
At the same time, Ouranos also saw the will to "save" within Hyacine and Barbara, which is why he gave his all to make these two girls Deliverers!
Even Loki had to admit that Ouranos is a benevolent god; compared to those chaotic deities with strange fetishes, Ouranos seemed perfectly normal.
But a benevolent god is still a god, and the object of their kindness isn't necessarily humans... If salvation requires a price, if it requires sacrifice, Ouranos would not hesitate.
Any slightly clever god could see Ouranos's plan, yet not one of them came looking for Hyacine and Barbara. Why?
Because they are all waiting for someone to take over the mess!
Do you think those gods came to the Lower World to save its inhabitants?
Of course they did, but that was just incidental.
The main reason gods come to the Lower World is because they're bored in the heavens and can't find any fun!
Compared to finding fun, "saving the world" is just a joke; otherwise, why hasn't a single god chosen to release their power?
Even if they would be expelled from the Lower World, they could still rewrite it and thus save the world...
Of course, Loki is the same.
I've already come to the Lower World to play, why would I go back?
However, facing this bloody reality, Loki didn't see any expression of being deceived on the two girls' faces, only a bit of sadness...
"We know Lord Ouranos's intentions."
"But even so, we have reasons why we must do this!"
"We hope you can help us, Lady Loki!"
The girls' eyes sparkled with a firm light, seemingly not shaken at all by the gods' deception, which truly made Loki look at them in a new light.
But what was the truth? Only the two girls knew...
"With the number ten million right here, if we don't save the world once, it will be impossible to complete the task. So what if we're being used? As long as we can save others and complete the task, that's enough!"
So why are they called the chosen wage slaves?
In their heads, there's basically nothing besides the task and related things...
"How noble. You probably even have the status of'Saints,' which makes me a bit hesitant... but who told me to be a god of trouble?"
"My Familia is quite large; you're welcome to join whenever you want!"
