Danmachi: Is It Wrong to Be the Main Character in Orario?-Chapter 328: My Child Was Born a Commoner!
Bellโs gaze also settled on Liliruca and Daphne. ๐๐๐ฆโฏ๐ธ๐ฆ๐๐๐๐ทโฏ๐.๐๐๐
โThey truly are talented. Given the right environment, theyโll definitely grow.โ
In truth, Bell had anticipated their developmentโbut he hadnโt expected them to improve this fast. With some real-field experience, their growth would accelerate even more.
Thatโs why a team needs diverse talentโto cover every angle without blind spots. But such diversity also brings its own challenges; testing peopleโs hearts isnโt easy.
Bell didnโt comment on that process; he simply thought these two were perfect fits for Loki Familia. Here, they had enough resources and opportunities to shine. In a smaller Familia, theyโd likely never reach their potential.
Nothing should change before they reach the 18th floor. Both teams were advancing steadily with no delaysโthe process was essentially about helping newcomers adjust to the Dungeon environment and fostering team synergy.
Loki Familia had always excelled at that.
Contrast this with Freya Familia, where most members were handpicked by Freya herself and generally highly skilled. When everyoneโs talented, coordination matters less. Freya Familia didnโt have command issuesโonly Freya could lead that willful group. In courtly dramas, thatโs just vying for favor.
Bell dismissed his wandering thoughts; Freya Familia was a different case altogether, best left unexamined.
Refocusing, Bell quietly enjoyed watching.
For the newcomers of Loki Familia, this expedition was a real crucibleโbacked by high-ranking adventurers. It was exactly the kind of trial the Orario adventurers had been waiting for. With the Familiaโs support, it was the perfect stage to showcase their abilities.
The new recruits understood that, and now most low-level adventurers on Team One were giving it their all to stand out.
Liliruca and Daphne were setting the exampleโenergizing everyone around them.
โEach of the other adventurers is itching to step forward. With Finn and the others backing them, this is going to get intense.โ
That wasnโt a bad thing.
Watching the first team battling fiercely on the front lines, Bell felt as though he was viewing an exciting filmโutterly compelling.
The new members of the Loki Familia really are like a gathering of talent. While they canโt quite match the raw potential of the top members from the Freya Familia, with time and growth, they could certainly become elite within the Loki Familia.
Here, when Bell refers to "elite," he means elite within the context of the Loki Familia.
Within Lokiโs Familia, Lv.6s are the pillars, Lv.5s are the core, Lv.4s make up the backbone, and Lv.3s are considered the elite.
For many Familias, reaching Lv.3 is already enough to be considered part of the core. But in Lokiโs Familia, the core of other groups would only count as "elite" here.
After seeing off their children, the three goddesses returned to their respective Familias.
Then, through a spatial channel within their bases, they arrived together at the Hestia Familia to observe the entire expedition.
"Oh~ Lili and Daphne are doing a pretty good job."
"Yeah, those two kids are handling things well. They each have their own way of coordinating the team, but in the end, both approaches are effective."
It was something no one could argue with. Even Hephaestus acknowledged that the two commanders from Lokiโs side were quite gifted. Though their styles differed, both succeeded in keeping their teams working together smoothly.
"Still, one of them is acting as a battlefield commander, using a style similar to Finnโs. But that child doesnโt yet have Finnโs level of strength, so they canโt fully manage both fighting and commanding at once."
"Hmm... thatโs true, but considering Daphneโs strength and leadership skills, sheโs probably fit to command the second unit in the future."
Loki nodded slightly. Daphne had a strong inclination in her command style, but because she had experience, it hadnโt caused any problems yet.
"Lili, on the other hand, is a pure commander. Mainly because she lacks strength, she focuses all her energy on strategy."
"Thatโs not necessarily a bad thing. Itโs because sheโs not that strong that she puts everything she has into commanding. If she keeps at it, she might even be able to take over Finnโs role someday."
"If that happens, Finn would probably laugh himself to death."
Finn, who had always been devoted to reviving the Pallum race, would surely be thrilled to see even a weaker member of his kind display such potential. That alone would probably be enough to make him smile.
But Loki could only sigh quietly in her heart.
Hephaestus also shook her head slightly. It was clear she felt that reviving an entire race was no easy feat.
"Hey, hey, hey, what are you two sighing for? Isnโt having a goal a good thing?"
Seeing them both sighing, Hestia pouted. For children of Genkai to have dreams was a good thing, even if they were hard to realize.
Loki shot a gloomy glance at Hestia. The more she saw her genuinely optimistic attitude, the more frustrated she felt.
"Do you think all kids are on the same level as yours?"
"Compared to yours, mine really are just ordinary folks."
Zeusโs Familia, Heraโs Familia... the child from that shortyโs home was basically born into the top tier of society.
On top of that, thereโs that bizarre Authority. Even if that kidโs ambitions are outrageous, Loki still thinks thereโs a good chance he could actually make them happen.
But her own children? Thatโs a different story.
Reviving an entire race, relying solely on one personโs strength, is just too much.
In a way, even Finn alone would never be able to accomplish that.
Unless Finn truly transforms from his self-proclaimed title of "Braver" into a real Hero, the revival of his race will remain out of reach.
