Danmachi: Reaper

In Loki's room.

That night after the party, many of the other Familia members took a break and went to their respective rooms. Almost everyone, except for the three top executives and Loki who was discussing something in his room.

"Alright, Riveria. So, what do you think about that Kelvin-kun?" Finn asked.

"No doubt, he's strong." Gareth stroked his beard as he recalled his duel with Kelvin this morning.

"Yeah, no doubt he's strong. It's just that his eyesight will probably hinder his growth."

Finn nodded at Gareth's words. Although during Sparring this morning Gareth was defeated by Kelvin, but that was because Gareth limited himself so that he wouldn't hurt Kelvin.

After all, Gareth was a level 6 adventurer while Kelvin had just received a falna and was only level 1. If Gareth fought seriously, then it wouldn't take him time to defeat Kelvin with just a few moves.

But, Finn had to be surprised when he heard what Riveria said.

"Looks like you misunderstood something, Finn."

Riveria closed her eyes, saying in a calm voice.

"Huh, what do you mean, Riveria?"

Finn looked at Riveria in confusion.

"That boy, Kelvin, he can see normally, he's not completely blind."

Not only Finn, but Gareth was also surprised by Riveria's words.

"What? Then why is he wearing an eye patch?"

Gareth asked as he looked at Riveria in confusion.

"Hehehe, I think I know why!"

Loki, who had been observing the conversation between the executives suddenly raised her hand as she smiled mysteriously.

"Do you know something Loki?" Finn asked curiously.

Meanwhile, Riveria remained silent as she waited for Loki's answer. To be honest, she was also skeptical when Kelvin said the reason why he closed his eyes was because of training.

After all, she had never heard of anyone practicing like that, well except maybe Kelvin.

"Hehe, instead of explaining it, how about you take a look at this!"

While saying that, Loki took out a parchment on the table.

"This..., is this Kelvin's status parchment?"

Finn, who saw what Loki took out was a little surprised.

"Yup, I honestly hid some of the Skills he had before. That kid, he really is a cheater!!!"

Loki smiled as she insinuated Kelvin at the same time.

"Are we really allowed to see this, Loki?" Gareth asked doubtfully, "shouldn't this be kept secret from others?"

Generally, individual status was the right of himself and the Gods affiliated with him. While others who did not have permission were not allowed to know that person's status.

"It's fine, it's fine. After all, you are the core members of the Familia, besides there was a reason why I hid this skill from Kelvin before...."

Loki's voice became lower and lower as she said the last line of her sentence.

The three executives also became curious about Loki's words. They glanced at the parchment on the table and looked at each other before nodding.

"If you say so ...."

Finn took the parchment and read it carefully. Generally, ordinary people would not be able to read the writing written on it, as it contained hieroglyphics which was referred to as the language of the Gods.

But, some learned people could certainly understand the meaning of each writing, Riveria for example. Even so, both Finn and Gareth were also slightly familiar with hieroglyphics.

"This is ...."

Finn's expression immediately changed when he read the contents of the parchment, this added to Gareth and Riveria's interest about Kelvin's status.

"What about Finn? What's written there?"

Riveria asked a little impatiently.

"You'd better read this yourself."

Finn sighed, as he gave the parchment to Riveria.

To explain the contents of the parchment..., Finn felt unable to even read it.

"...Let me see."

Riveria was slightly taken aback by Finn's reaction, extending her hand to take the parchment and read it herself.

And when she did, her eyes widened as she read the entire contents ....

"I-It's ...."

Both Riveria and Gareth were stunned. Previously, when they saw the contents of Kelvin's status, they were surprised that Kelvin immediately got two Skills that made no sense.

But, they were even more surprised because Loki hid part of Kelvin's Skill description!

"[Reverse Sight], 'yeah, I guess that explains everything."

Gareth stroked his beard with a thoughtful expression.

"By cutting off the sense of sight, which means Kelvin has to become 'blind' directly or indirectly in order for him to use this skill, 'yes."

Finn muttered with a serious expression.

"And here it says 'The activation condition is to cut off his sense of sight either directly or indirectly'..., I guess this isn't a simple Skill...."

Riveria closed her eyes. It was as if she began to understand the real reason Kelvin always wore an eye patch.

"So that's why he always wears a blindfold..., no wonder. That way, he can know other people's intentions towards him."

Gareth made a pondering expression. In his opinion, if Kelvin did have this skill from the start, but there was one thing that was odd to him.

"Wait, he can't possibly have skills if he doesn't have falna. That means, all these skills were only awakened when Loki gave him falna, right?"

After hearing Gareth's words, they both immediately realized. While Finn made a serious expression, Riveria seemed to be considering something.

Seeing the three of them looking serious, Loki grinned as she burst out laughing.

"It is true. Skills will only awaken when the Gods give falna. But, not everyone will instantly awaken the skill the first time they are given Falna. It depends on several aspects, such as ambition, desire, or even illness. Although there are cases where someone already has skills from the start, but that is quite rare. In fact, cases like awakening more than one skill from the start of receiving falna are very rare."

Loki sighed, took a glass of water and drank it.

"It's true. So, there is a possibility that Kelvin has awakened this skill from the start, huh. That's why he always wears an eye patch, which can serve as a medium to 'cut off' his sense of sight?"

Riveria held her chin with a thoughtful expression. If what they think is true from the start, it's no wonder he always wears a blindfold.

It was so that she could tell if someone was lying or not. This ability, was a rare ability that even Gods only possessed!

"Forget that, right now I'm more worried about his last skill ...."

Ignoring Riveria's words, Finn said in a grim tone.

"Then the magic..., it's similar to Ais' [Avenger] Skill ...."

Hearing Finn's words, Riveria immediately remembered the fourth skill on the parchment. And her expression also turned grim as she recalled it.

"Yes..., and from the description of the Magic, this is the type of Magic that will take away Kelvin's common sense if he constantly uses it ...." Finn said gloomily.

"Meaning, there's a possibility that the boy will lose his mind if he uses this Magic for a long period of time, is that it?" Gareth closed his eyes, stroking his beard and a hint of worry could be heard in his voice.
