Danmachi: Reaper

In the end, Kelvin abandoned the idea of making a multi-purpose weapon. Now, he will probably focus on using the scythe as his main weapon.

Besides, he felt that the scythe was a suitable choice for him. Apart from the fact that the scythe can be used as a close-medium range weapon, it also has a wide attack area.

Unlike the spear or sword, which are suitable for one-on-one combat, the scythe is more varied. The scythe was suitable for frontal attacks against multiple enemies at once.

"Hmm, are you sure about that? We have no problem spending more money, you know?" Finn asked as he looked curiously at Kelvin who was walking next to him.

Originally, they were going to agree to make a shape-shifting weapon with 90 million valis as the price. Only, Kelvin wasn't shameless enough to owe his Family so much, considering he had only joined for a few days.

So, he negotiated to make a third-class weapon, a standard Scythe for 100 thousand valis.

Not too expensive, but also not cheap for a novice adventurer like Kelvin.

"Mn, no problem." Kelvin nodded, "Besides, I can't owe you guys too much, it'll just burden me for now."

For now, his fighting style was quite random, as he threw the weapon in his hand at his enemy several times. It gave him a sense of excitement like---

"Look! I killed you from a long distance even using a melee weapon, you idiot!"

---something like that.

"That's right. The point is, if you need anything, you can tell us."

Finn nodded silently. It was true, if he were in Kelvin's position, he wouldn't want to be too much trouble for his new family either, especially since his potential hadn't been fully reached.

Unlike Ais or the other executive members, Kelvin was still level 1, and he couldn't participate in expeditions. Which meant, the source of income was quite stagnant as a level 1 adventurer would generally earn 25,000 valis every day, and even then it was not fixed and more often than not erratic.

Ignoring other adventurers, Kelvin believed that if he could dive deeper into deeper floors, he could earn at least 100,000 valis or more. But, to do that of course he needed a weapon.

So, for the time being he would use third-rate weapons, and when he had more money, he could buy more expensive weapons.

The two chatted about their respective preferences, and once random chit-chat was thrown their way on the way to Twilight Manor.

Even so, Kelvin had to admit that his decision to join the Loki Familia was not wrong. They were a kind and friendly Familia (if you ignored the traits of certain people), and although it was sometimes quite troublesome dealing with some people like Bete or Tiona, but Kelvin quite enjoyed his days here.

And so, within a few minutes of traveling, they finally arrived at the gate of Twilight Manor, which was immediately greeted by two guards who were standing guard in front of the gate.

"Oh, Captain! Beginners! You're finally back!"

"Hmm, did something happen while we were gone, Alex?" Finn raised his eyebrows as he asked curiously.

"Mn, there was a pretty servant girl here earlier. She's looking for our new members, and right now she's probably talking to Loki-sama."

"Servant girl?" Finn raised his eyebrows as he muttered in a low voice. His gaze then turned to Kelvin, whose eyes were twitching with an awkward expression.

"Do you know her, Kelvin?" Finn asked curiously. It was quite new for him to see Kelvin's troubled expression at the moment.

"...Well, you could say that."

Kelvin let out a tired sigh as he nodded slowly.

He could at least guess the identity of this servant girl, considering she had always been with him the past few years ....

******

"Don't you have anything to say to me, Kelvin-sama?"

Sylpha crossed her arms under her breasts, making her two assets even bigger than before.

Her gaze was directed downwards, where Kelvin was doing doggeza with his head bowed.

"Sorry for leaving you alone ...." Kelvin's lips twitched, but he complied.

"And?" Sylpha raised her eyebrows as if she was still dissatisfied with Kelvin's apology.

"...And?" Kelvin looked up, looking at Sylpha in confusion.

Um, he had already apologized here, was there anything else he needed to say?

Seeing Kelvin's confused look made Sylpha's eyes twitch. In the end, she sighed while rubbing her forehead.

"Kelvin-sama! Didn't you promise not to leave Sylpha alone? Did Kelvin-sama lie to Sylpha? Do you know if Sylpha was very worried when she found out Kelvin-sama ran away to Orario?"

"S-Sorry ...."

Kelvin could only look down at the floor.

Actually, his family had suddenly hired a maid to take care of him. What made Kelvin feel skeptical was that the maid was only 1-2 years older than him.

And not only that, but the maid's identity was Sylpha Langling. If Kelvin's memory was not wrong, she was supposed to be a character in one of the Manga he had read, and the Anime adaptation should not be long in coming.

Forget that, but Sylpha was actually quite attached to him, especially after that incident ....

"Anyway! Kelvin-sama from now on is not allowed to leave Sylpha's side! Do you understand?!"

"Yes ...."

"It's good that Kelvin-sama understands."

******

Turning to the other side;Loki, Riveria, Finn and the two new joiners, Ais and Lefiya-looked at the scene in front of them while falling silent.

"Wh-What happened?" Lefiya asked while stammering.

Seeing the scene where Kelvin was being scolded by an unknown girl in a maid outfit really made her panic a little.

Moreover, the aura emanating from the girl was quite strong, which meant she wasn't just an ordinary servant girl, but there was a possibility if she was an adventurer whose level was higher than her.

"Riveria?" Ais looked at Riveria with her usual flat expression, but Riveria could tell that she was also curious about the current situation.

But, instead of Riveria, it was Loki who replied with her usual demeanor:

"Well, Ais-tan! Leyifa-chan! We shouldn't interrupt at a time like this. Just wait for this to finish and you'll know, okay~"

"U-Um ...."

Lefiya was about to say something, but Sylpha quickly interrupted her as she walked towards them.

She walked in front of them before finally bending down and introducing herself.

"Sorry for all the commotion. Let me introduce myself now; my name is Sylpha Langlis, former level 3 adventurer and Kelvin-sama's personal maid."

"Ehhhhhhhh???!!!"

Lefiya screamed as she was shocked by this information. Her gaze turned to Kelvin who was walking towards them with an awkward expression.

"Y-Yes..., as she said. She my personal servant, and she somehow managed to find me in Orario ...."

The moment Kelvin said that, Sylpha immediately gave him a sharp look, making him turn his gaze in another direction.

"You underestimate me, Kelvin-sama! It certainly wasn't difficult for me to find out your current location." Sylpha snorted then she puffed out her chest with a proud expression, "Especially when Sylpha can smell your scent from hundreds of kilometers away."

"You must be joking, right?" Kelvin fell silent.

And not just him, in fact everyone there fell silent when Sylpha said that. It was clear on their faces that they didn't believe her nonsense.

"Of course not. Sylpha is telling the truth. Kelvin-sama's scent is so strong, even Sylpha can smell it from a distance."

While saying that, Sylpha brought her body closer to Kelvin, while closing her eyes she sniffed Kelvin's scent from a close distance, before finally letting out a satisfied breath.

"Hahh..., Kelvin-sama's scent is very good as usual~"

Upon seeing this, Finn drew closer to Loki as he whispered in her ear.

"Is she really that girl?"

"Yes, exactly what you think she is. She is the Silver Blader, the one who was paired with Ais in the past." Loki nodded, as if she knew Finn's thoughts.

"How?" Finn paused.

His gaze shifted to Sylpha, who was currently very closely involved with Kelvin, and of course he looked at her in disbelief.

"I don't know? I was also surprised when she suddenly came here. But, looking at their closeness, I think I can deduce something."

Loki grinned as she said in a mysterious tone.
