Manga Born to Be King

　　"Not sure. Just to test it out, that's all."

　　Although Hermes' tone was casual, Loki also felt the same way.Dionysus said he was "moving too much".

　　Although for a while——until the "Nightmare on the 27th floor", it was enough to maintain a faction in the city's top position, but now it is at most around the backbone of the large number of members.

　　Although it seems that the strength of the family is hidden with complete secrecy, it is too unqualified to compete with underground forces such as the remnants of the dark faction and the monsters.It was a good proof that only Lv.3 Philvis was assisting until the moment before the attack.

　　"Dionysus and I are celestial compatriots... Olympus allies. Loki, I think I know that male god better than you."

　　"You mean the one who caused the 'attack' and wanted to plan to kill each other?"

　　"Oh, you know."

　　There are other suspicious places.Once resisted Ouranos too much, preventing Loki and the others from cooperating with him.

　　Although Uranus was also hiding a bomb called "Heterotic", the alliance was not possible until now, but Dionysus' stubborn remarks did promote a confrontation between the two.

　　"Dionysus was dangerous when he was in the celestial world. Even without that, that guy was too much at the center of the commotion."

　　That's why the verbal agreement of the alliance was concluded and surveillance was carried out, summed up by the male god who played the role of a double agent.

　　"May I ask you a question too? Since you are suspicious of him, why did you bring Dionysus to participate in the man-made labyrinth."

　　"Because he didn't show any clues, this is one reason. Besides, if you are in the enemy's base, if you are by our side, no matter how careful you are, no matter how patient you are, you will definitely take action... We guess so. "

　　She secretly communicated to Gareth what to do in an emergency.But what Dionysus himself actually did was the unexpected development of leaving Loki's side.

　　"And... there's no way to completely doubt him."

　　"..."

　　"We're basically sensitive to the smell of lies...but we didn't get that smell from Dionysus."

　　This is Loki's sincere words, and Dionysus' words and deeds are indeed suspicious.However, the will he said and the divine will hidden in it were all genuine.At least that's what Loki heard.

　　What played a decisive role was what happened a few days ago.In front of the family's cemetery, Loki couldn't doubt the "Oath" he made.

　　"What Dionysus said is the real thing... If it's a lie, then no matter how hard you try, you won't be able to win him. Even if you're calculated, there's nothing you can do. We thought so."

　　"I didn't expect Loki to say such a thing... Then, our suspicion of Dionysus is really due to repeated biased speculation, and is it wrong?"

 …  

　　"That guy is also at fault. His pretentious behavior is suspicious enough."

　　That's right, Hermes smiled softly after saying that.He smiled and looked up at the sky.

　　"I'm sorry to doubt you... Dionysus."

　　"Guilty?"

　　"Haha, how is that possible."

　　Hermes turned his head back, put his fingers on the brim of his hat and pulled it down, blocking his eyes.Immediately afterwards, he brought his face closer to Loki, revealing a sharp squinting eye from the brim of his hat.

　　"I, Loki...remorseful."

　　"..."

　　"It was completely calculated. Is that what it is? Dionysus is a living sacrifice, attracting our attention and disrupting our steps, while on the other hand, the shady is leisurely during this period of time. Acting behind the scenes. Ah, I don't know which god it is, but I'm really unwilling to do so."

　　Indeed, Hermes did not have such lovely feelings as guilt.There was anger in the pupils in front of him.

　　Acknowledging the fact that he was manipulated, on top of that, feeling remorse.

　　"Is Loki going to let it go? I'm just an impostor, but... the celestial troublemaker has been tricked. There's nothing more humiliating than that, right?"

　　Hermes backed his head, and comically flipped his hands upside down.

　　To say it wasn't a lie.However, as a god, Loki himself couldn't explain why this feeling was going back and forth in his chest like a dry wind.

　　"Forget it, I know Loki and I have thought about the same thing. Just follow the clues related to Dionysus."

　　"That is, a search?"

　　"Ahh. From now on—it's all about finding the culprit."

　　After saying this, Hermes walked up.As he left, he quietly stuffed the chess piece in his hand, the King of Black, into Loki's hand, and then left..

Chapter 498

　　After the back of the male god disappeared, Loki leaned against the wall of the alley.She stared for a while at the Black King, the chess piece that symbolized the shady world, and then looked up at the sky.

　　It shows a blue sky.There is no cloud, a clear sky, as if nothing happened.Looking at the sky divided into the shape of an alley, Loki couldn't help muttering: "Is it really being manipulated, Dionysus..."

　　Did the gods peeping into the lower realm see through everything?They were probably pointing their fingers at Loki and laughing, saying that it was a shame that it was Loki.If it was normal, just imagining it would make me feel angry, but for some reason, I don't feel that way now.

　　"..."

　　Loki waved off her sentimentality, and she also decided to imitate Hermes.

　　(Is Dionysus really "The Clown Six Seven Seven"? As Hermes said, in order to attract our attention...? Even so, why is Dionysus being manipulated by the shady at will? .why, no, how?)

　　This is the only thing Loki is bothered about.In this case, the view that "Dionysus and the Shady are a team" is more reasonable.

　　(According to the little ones and the others, Dionysus does have a bit of excess, just like us before.)

　　Loki also caused the gods to slaughter each other with the strange disease of the gods that was eroded by the poison called boredom.

　　"The territory of Dionysus and the others... The twelve seats surrounding the heavens almost turned into killing each other. In addition to the twelve gods, other gods were also involved—"

　　Loki thought about this, and suddenly changed his way of thinking.

　　(What if... really if... Since then, Dionysus has been controlled? If from that stage, he was being made to repeat his excessive words and deeds, becoming a living sacrifice... becoming a "Disguise", in order to make the shady active in the dark.)

　　This speculation is too leap and too abnormal, but Loki can't laugh it off.She was lost in thought, and after a while—

　　"...Loki?"

　　"Su, Su Ma!?"

　　Without warning, the black-haired male god appeared.Seeing Loki, he couldn't help being surprised, and he, who was called Soma, tilted his head with slow movements.

　　Soma is the god who is in charge of the wine cup. The reason for coming to the lower world is to make delicious wine. He is also a strange fetish among the gods.

　　The family is also involved in some commercial content, so that in addition to the base area, it also holds other wine cellars.When it comes to wine, he is himself, and when he talks about himself, he is wine. Luo Jin, who can make such a rhetoric, wants to drink the wine he made himself, so he has met him a few times and has a little contact.

　　"What are you doing in a place like this?"

　　"That's what we're going to say!"

　　For men, the hair is very long and the eyes are blocked by bangs.

　　Undoubtedly showing the specific image of the word "dark", Loki will huddle in one place, and he, who is focused on winemaking, teases him as a god of interest.This kind of indoor gods have come outside, and the shocked Loki's mood is only natural.

　　"Near Daedalus, there is my wine cellar..."

　　"Ah... You did say such a thing. Is it a short cut?"

　　"Ah."

　　"But, it's forbidden to enter here right now? If Ganesha is exposed, he will run over immediately."

　　"So, I'm moving out of sight, moving..."

　　She was speechless at the muttering Soma.If unexpectedly, he is the "Urban Destroyer", Loki will probably feel that this is too stupid, and he will not even have the strength to fight.

　　Even so, compared to when he first met him, he is now quite a god.

　　Although I don't know how his heart has changed... But now Loki doesn't have the time to pay attention to this.

　　"We won't tell anyone, let's go."

　　"Just do it..."

　　She waved her hand and urged him to leave.The slightly hunchbacked male god staggered past Loki, who sighed.

　　however--

　　"God wine."

　　At the moment when the two staggered, Soma stopped in an instant, and turned around like a conditioned reflex.

　　"what?"

　　"It smells like the wine of the gods."

　　Deep in the bangs, his pupils widened, and the expressionless Soma approached... Seeing the man's sudden change in attitude, Loki was indeed oppressed by the momentum.

　　"Loki, do you have an impression of divine wine?"

　　"Say, what nonsense! We haven't tasted a drop of the real divine wine you brewed! In the end, you won't give it to us! We really want to drink it--! "

　　The overwhelming sense of oppression caused Loki to spit out his innocence, but Soma denied it.

　　"No, it's not my divine wine. It's not the taste of the divine wine I made."

　　"Aha?"

　　"It's the divine wine made by someone other than me."

　　"This, this is not to say stupid things. Besides you, who else can make divine wine in the lower realm..."

　　"But, Loki does have that smell."

　　Seeing Soma sniffing like a dog and making such assertions, Loki cringed a little.

　　For the time being, Loki is also a goddess. Although the idiot god who recklessly brought her face close to smell the smell made her want to punch her... But she still tentatively raised her arm and sniffed.

　　However, even Loki, who likes drinking very much, really didn't feel the slightest bit of alcohol.

　　"It's not the kind you drink directly... I'm afraid it's the smell from someone..."

　　"Taste, stained with...?"

　　"Loki, are there any drinkers among your acquaintances?"

　　Soma leaned out.He was supposed to be an incomprehensible male god who didn't know what he was thinking, but now his eyes literally changed color.

　　"Loki, I want to know. Besides me, there is also the existence of divine wine in this lower realm."
