Chapter 1214: A hero
In the end, this was a new ability for Shiro and it wasn’t as if she was able to master it right away.
Lin Fan didn’t mind it when she looked at him with a disappointed look, almost as if she was sad that she wouldn’t be able to help him right away.
The problem was that the ice wasn’t strong enough.
It was a clash between the two powers that she possessed, which made the ice weak and easy to break through.
So even though Hayase was covered in ice, it wasn’t hard for him to break through it.
Though doing that made Shiro glare at him.
Patting her on the head, Lin Fan said, "Just take your time to train this power and I’ll find some way for you to help me in the future."
Though Lin Fan was also able to use this ability now because of the Loving is Sharing skill. That was the skill that allowed him to use all of the things that his pets learned, which meant that he was able to use the mist in the same way as Shiro.
He might even be able to use it in a way different from Shiro because he possessed powers that were different from hers.
It was no wonder Weiss told him to give it to Shiro.
If he refined it, then it wouldn’t have been to its full efficacy since there was the clash between him and this bloodline.
But giving it to Shiro who didn’t have this clash because of her origin as a spirit beast was the best choice. After all, it meant that he would be able to use the full power of this bloodline and Shiro would have this power as well.
It was twice as effective for half the cost.
Though a part of Lin Fan did have to think about if Weiss knew about his ability to share power with Shiro...
If he did, then that was a problem since it would mean that he would also know about other stuff.
The one thing that was the most dangerous was naturally the system.
If Weiss knew about the system...
There was the problem that Lin Fan had thought about previously...
Still, that didn’t matter right now as Shiro was the main focus.
If Shiro was able to learn how to control this power, it would mean that she would be able to use it in tandem with Lin Fan since he would be able to use this power as well.
As long as the two of them worked together, there was no doubt that this power would become much more powerful. It would allow them to create ice and mist that was twice as powerful.
No, it wouldn’t just be twice as powerful since it wasn’t just a simple addition.
It would be closer to multiplication, which would mean that it would be several times more powerful.
So Lin Fan had high hopes for Shiro’s development.
Though before he could actually talk to her about this, he heard something coming from outside.
Lin Fan had asked not to be disturbed while he was in the Pet Storage Space, so they should know not to bother him. So for them to actually bother him now meant that there had to be something that was happening.
With a few simple words, Lin Fan left the Pet Storage Space and went to see what was happening.
"A hero has arrived."
"Hero?" Lin Fan asked in a surprised voice when he saw Rokuko standing outside the room that he had been using.
Rokuko just gave a simple nod before taking out a screen that was created by the system.
Since the inn and the rest of the town were all considered part of the dungeon, it was easy for her to open up a video screen like this.
This was territory that wasn’t really theirs, so this was one of the first things that they had invested in when coming to this place. After all, it was only with proper surveillance that they would be able to find all the threats that were out there.
Even though this Laver Empire was the territory of Haku who treated Rokuko as her beloved little sister, that didn’t mean that there were those that didn’t have ideas.
It wasn’t that they were doubting Haku’s love for Rokuko, this was just the basics of keeping oneself safe.
The screen showed a handsome blonde haired young man who was currently in the middle of a meal.
Lin Fan admitted that he was handsome, but it wasn’t as if he would lose to him.
But Lin Fan soon knitted his brows as he looked at the handsome blonde haired young man on the screen.
That was because his Appraisal Eyes had been triggered and there was a description that came for this young man.
"Blessing of Apollo."
The first god that he met after coming to this world was also a god from the same pantheon as Apollo. So that meant that there were these Greek Gods that existed in this world as well.
It was just that he didn’t expect to run into someone that had this blessing...
"How did you know that he was a hero?"
Lin Fan was only able to figure that this young man was blessed by a god, there was nothing that his Appraisal Eyes told him about this young man being a hero.
"It’s in his Adventurer’s Guild registration." Rokuko replied before pulling out some records.
Since he was the lord of this place, it was only natural that he worked with the Adventurer’s Guild branch that was established here. They gave him information on the people that arrived in this town to ensure that no one dangerous arrived.
Or at least no one dangerous arrived that was associated with them.
In a way, it was to help the Adventurer’s Guild protect themselves.
This report listed this person’s name and rank, as well as a special title that he held.
"Arthur, A Rank, Hero of Music?" Lin Fan couldn’t help saying in a confused voice as he read this report.
After all, it really didn’t make sense when the report described this person as the Hero of Music.
But in the end, he turned back to Rokuko to ask, "What does it mean by him having this title of hero?"
Rokuko was surprised to be asked this, but Lin Fan quickly followed up by saying, "I’m sure that you’ve already asked Haku on the forum about this, so just tell me what she said."
Rokuko looked away as if she was guilty about something, so Lin Fan added, "We share the same account, so I can see the messages that she sent you without even asking."
At this, Rokuko said with a sigh, "It’s like this..."
When she was done, Lin Fan said with a chuckle, "What are you worried about then?"
Rokuko said with a worried look, "But he’s a hero..."
"There’s no reason for him to attack your dungeon core just because he’s a hero, it’s not like you’re some kind of demon king. At the same time, he’s someone that has joined the Adventurer’s Guild. If he’s a part of the Adventurer’s Guild, do you really think that Haku wouldn’t have gotten to him first?"
Rokuko was caught off guard hearing this and it seemed like she was slowly processing what Lin Fan said.
This hero title was just a title that was given to any that had received the blessing of a god. It wasn’t a special title that meant that they were destined to fight against the demon king or save the world, it was just a title that was given to recognize those blessed by the gods.
As such, it meant that this Arthur wasn’t actually a threat to us.
After thinking about it, Rokuko slowly gave a nod to show that she understood.
But Lin Fan knew that she was still a bit worried, so he added, "With how much Haku cares about those that hunt dungeon cores, do you think that she wouldn’t have trained him not to think about that? I’m sure that she would have put some kind of restraint on him that would prevent him from hurting a single dungeon core."
Rokuko gave a stronger nod this time when she heard this.
"But why would he come to our dungeon now? After all, it isn’t as if this place is a high ranking dungeon or anything?"
This was something that Lin Fan couldn’t answer since he had no idea why this was the case at all. In fact, he couldn’t even think of a single explanation that would answer this question since it was indeed out of the ordinary.
Well, there was one thing that he could think of, but he didn’t want to say it to Rokuko.
For now, he would just accept this harassment and see where it went.
Though there was also one more thing that Lin Fan was interested in.
"Has he gone into the dungeon yet?"
"No, he just got here not that long ago and I immediately came to find you after he arrived. He hasn’t had the time to go into the dungeon yet."
"Then let’s watch him when he dives into our dungeon later."
Rokuko slowly gave a nod, but there was a look of doubt that was on her face after Lin Fan said this.
Lin Fan didn’t mind since he was only interested in one thing.
"Just how strong will this ’hero’ with the blessing of a god be?"
