Lin Fan couldn’t help shaking his head with a bitter smile when he saw this.
Gods really were willful, all three of the gods that he had met were like this. They would only pay attention to him if there was something that interested them and once they were done with him, they just discarded him like he was nothing.
Was this just the personality that came with having absolute power?
Were they really just that bored?
Lin Fan didn’t spend long to ponder this as he turned his attention to the rewards that Weiss had given them.
For him, Weiss had given him another skill in addition to the one that he had received from Aphrodite.
It was a Magic Manipulation (Max) skill.
Magic Manipulation (Max):
Allows the user to freely manipulate their own magic energy and magic energy in the area surrounding them. Degree of manipulation will depend on the level of the skill and the abilities of the user.
On the surface, it seemed like a very normal skill. Actually, it seemed like a trash skill if one just judged it based on the description of it.
However, Lin Fan was able to see through this and recognize how amazing this skill really was. He couldn’t be filled with more gratitude towards Weiss for giving him such an amazing skill.
After all, this allowed him to freely manipulate magic energy!
This meant that he was able to use magic energy and create all kinds of special attacks that no one else had thought of before. Of course, it would take a lot of experimentation to see if these spells that he came up with would work properly, but there were infinite possibilities that were available to him.
He couldn’t wait to get back and start playing around with this skill.
As for the reward that Rokuko received, it was a simple promotion in rank.
In one go, she was promoted all the way to a C Rank dungeon core, fulfilling the requirement that Lin Fan needed for his mission.
This was the thing that had worried Lin Fan the most, but now it had been fulfilled in one go that he couldn’t help letting out a sigh of relief. All he needed to do now was to expand the dungeon and make it stronger which he would do naturally and he would be able to finish this mission.
But he couldn’t help wondering what this increase in rank would actually give him.
When he had checked it before, he found that not much had changed when Rokuko’s rank increased previously. He hoped that it would be different this time.
Of course, the first thing that they had to do was get out of here.
They were still in the conference hall and Lin Fan didn’t really know how to leave this place with Rokuko.
He looked around to see if there was anyone else that was left that he could ask, but he found that there were only a few dungeon cores that were still left. Most of them were the dungeon cores of the aggressive faction that he had seen hanging out with True Dragon Lord Astaroth previously.
He couldn’t help revealing a faint smile when he saw this.
He knew that the friendly faction dungeon cores mainly built dungeons that could work with human towns and often built human towns nearby, so they had quite a bit of work to do. They were the kinds of people who couldn’t just stay here and chat even if they wanted to.
The aggressive faction dungeon cores built powerful dungeons that only earned DP by killing all those people who invaded, so they would be listed as dangerous places and few people would go there. So compared to the friendly faction dungeon cores, the aggressive faction dungeon cores were more free and had more time to hang out here to chat.
But after what had happened during the dungeon conference, it wasn’t as if Lin Fan could just talk to them and ask them how to get out of here.
It was already good enough that they weren’t attacking him now that the dungeon conference was over.
After looking around and still not finding anyone to help him, Lin Fan was surprised to hear a familiar voice coming from behind him.
“Are you two not going to go?”
Lin Fan turned around to see Haku standing there waiting for him.
Lin Fan was surprised to see that she was there since he knew that she controlled one of the strongest empires on the magic continent. So logically speaking, she should be the busiest person in the entire friendly faction.
So what was she doing here?
Haku could see the confusion on their faces, so she said with a smile, “I stayed back because I wanted to talk to you about something.”
Lin Fan was once again surprised, but he didn’t act wary. After all, he had a good impression of Haku after what had happened earlier.
She had even gone out of her way to bet on him to show that she stood on his side.
Of course, she had stood up for dungeon core 627 when she raised her objection, but Lin Fan had understood why she had done it. She had confidence in Lin Fan, so she used that opportunity to create a rift between dungeon core 627 and True Dragon Lord Astaroth to pull dungeon core 627 over to her faction.
That was why she had no hesitation in supporting dungeon core 627 even though she was going against Lin Fan.
So after thinking for a bit, he gave a nod and started following Haku to a side room.
There had been other rooms that had been prepared in this place for anyone that wanted to have private meetings. After all, this dungeon conference was a place for dungeon cores to meet and sometimes they would need to have private meetings.
Once they were in the room, Haku just calmly sat down and gestured for Lin Fan and Rokuko to sit down as well.
When they were alone, Lin Fan couldn’t help feeling a strange feeling from Haku. It was almost like the way that a predator looked at their prey…
But that look wasn’t targeted at Lin Fan, but rather Rokuko…
What did Haku want with Rokuko?
Still, for now, he sat down and waited for Haku to speak.
Once they were seated, Haku took a light breath almost as if she was worried about something before turning to Rokuko to say, “Can you be my little sister?”
Both Lin Fan and Rokuko were caught off guard by this as they just stared at Haku in a daze, not being able to process what she had just said.
During the silence, Rokuko turned to look at Lin Fan, but he just shook his head to tell her that she should do what she wanted and that he didn’t know what was the best choice in this situation.
But he really felt that this situation was strange.
Why would Haku suddenly want to take Rokuko as her little sister?
He was sure that there would be plenty of other dungeon cores that would be willing to be Haku’s little sister, so why did she want Rokuko? No matter how they compared it, Rokuko was weaker than any of those other dungeon cores.
It was as if she had been released and Haku suddenly came forward to take Rokuko in her arms.
Rokuko’s eyes opened wide in shock as Haku suddenly hugged her and rubbed her face against her as she said, “You’re just too cute! I’ve always wanted a cute little sister like you, but none of them are as cute as you!”
Lin Fan just didn’t know what to say as he watched from the side, but he couldn’t help admitting that Haku really did have good tastes.
After all, even he felt that Rokuko was very cute in her human form.
The small stature, that white as snow skin, those large blue eyes, and those blonde twintails…She was just like a little doll.
Rokuko looked at Lin Fan for help, but he just gave a shrug and shook his head as if he was telling her to accept it.
Just like this, Haku kept holding Rokuko in her arms and rubbing up against her, holding her like a little doll.
Rokuko asked for help from Lin Fan many times, but he chose to stay out of this.
After all, if Haku were to take a liking to Rokuko, this was a good thing for them. They had just pissed off the aggressive faction with what had just happened and while Haku had supported them in that dispute, that didn’t mean that she would stand on their side unconditionally.
It was better for them if they gave Haku more of a reason to support them and what better reason was there other than a cute little sister?
So Lin Fan could only thank Rokuko for her sacrifice as he watched from the side.
After Haku finally had her fill of holding and rubbing against Rokuko, she finally let her go and gave a cough before saying, “So do you agree to being my cute little sister?”
The way that Haku was looking at her was terrifying to Rokuko, but before she could respond, Lin Fan responded for her, “It would be her honour to have you as her big sister.”
Rokuko looked at Lin Fan with a look of absolute despair and did all she could to signal to him to reject this request, but Lin Fan completely ignored her. He had already made up his mind to sell her out and nothing she did would be able to change that decision.
Haku also ignored Rokuko’s look of despair as she said, “Good, I’m very happy to have her as my cute little sister.” Then she turned back to Rokuko and the look in her eyes sent a chill down Rokuko’s spine.
Rokuko just looked at the two people smiling at her who had already decided her fate and there was nothing that she could say in response to this.
She looked left, she looked right, she looked left, she looked right, and finally she raised her hands as if to give up. It was as if she was saying, “Cut me up, boil me, and eat me! Do what you want!”
Haku wasn’t unhappy with this at all, rather she found Rokuko’s appearance very cute and she wanted to hug her again. But she knew that she had gone overboard, so she held herself back this time.
Instead, she just raised her hand and there was a ball that appeared that she offered to Rokuko as she said, “This is a little gift from your big sister.”
Rokuko cautiously looked at the ball, but when she saw what it was, she immediately revealed a happy look!
She immediately took it and said, “No take backs!”
Haku wasn’t angry at all at how rude she was, she almost melted from how cute Rokuko looked.
In fact, it was so cute that she couldn’t help reaching out and taking Rokuko in her arms again.
Rokuko was about to dodge it, but she felt someone pushing her from behind and she landed right in Haku’s arms.
Turning around, she looked at Lin Fan like she had just been betrayed, but Lin Fan just looked back with a smile. It was almost as if he was saying, “This is the least you can do after receiving a gift.”
Rokuko was unhappy seeing this, but she endured since she admitted that he was right. Not to mention that the gift that she had been given was quite a big one.
That ball wasn’t any special item, in fact, only dungeon cores could use that ball. That was because this ball was a mass of DP that was transferred from Haku to Rokuko.
As for the amount, it was over a million DP!
