"Hum, not bad, this boost in power feels great." Said Aidan as he opened and clenched his fist repeatedly. "The two boosts from my previous parameters to 1500 and now the level up really greatly changed my strength." Confirmed Aidan with a smile of happiness.

"So, what are the two of you going to do from now on?" Asked Loki happily.

Turning towards Aidan with an eyebrow raised, Ais asked in an emotionless tone to outsiders, but full of emotions in Aidan's ears: "Do we go back to the dungeon?"

"No, the two of you are going to have a break now. Find something else to do." Interrupted Loki as she directly banned them from entering the dungeon. "The two of you are only eight years old. From the beginning, it was too young to enter the dungeon alone, not to mention now that the two of you are level two. You're going to enjoy some fresh air out of the dungeon." Ordered Loki with a tone that didn't accept any objections.

"You did not even go out for the new year celebration of Orario. Come back here tomorrow. I'll have planned something for the two of you." She continued as she had a rare severe face. "You cannot spend all of your life in the dungeon, and there is a lot to learn outside of it as well." She concluded as the two youngsters left the room.

(Loki POV)

Thinking about their conversation, Loki shook her head with a complicated smile. "Most adventurers only enter the dungeon to make quick money to go and drink and enjoy life. On the other hand, those two aren't missing money due to Aidan's card business, and they always spend their time in the dungeon to improve themselves. There is such a large distinction between the two of them and the rest."

Getting up from her seat, she walked to the window and looked at the training ground of the familia, especially the two eight-year-old children who had just arrived and were facing each other in a sword fight. "I need to find them something else to do, or they will dive back in the dungeon at the first opportunity.

*Knock knock knock*

Turning towards the door that was pushed open after knocking three times, Loki faced Riveria, who was entering with a pile of documents in her arms instead of the staff she seldom parted with.

"Finn has completed those documents. He asked me to bring them to you." Said the high-elven woman as she left the documents on the small coffee table for review. "Are there anything you want me to do before I leave for the elven forest?" She continued as she sat in front of Loki, who had a lecherous grin plastered on her face.

"Yes, how about you let me fe-." She started only to be karate chopped on the head by the ever-serious elf.

"If there's nothing else, I'll pack my things to leave early tomorrow morning." She answered as she left her seat and walked towards the door.

As if struck by lightning when she was hit on the head, Loki opened her eyes wide as a crafty smile appeared on her face. "Wait. Tomorrow when you leave, bring Ais with you. Also, take a few monster extermination missions in the wild on the way. The two want to go back to the dungeon again after levelling up, and I need to find them something else to do." She explained as the green-haired elf lifted an eyebrow in confusion.

"Do I bring Aidan along as well?" Asked the mage after a moment of silence.

"No. Since the two of child awakened, they've been together. It's time they learn to live by themselves. Moreover, I'll have Aidan help Finn in well whatever he his doing." Answered the goddess as she waved her hand at the mention of the business of her captain.

"Haa, I see. In that case, I'll notify Finn to get him tomorrow morning." She finished before turning and closing the door behind her.

(General POV)

"Stop holding back, Ais. We need to get used to our new boost in parameters. We won't be able to adjust if you hold back." Shouted Aidan as they once again clashed.

"Alright, in that case by careful." She shouted as she once again sped up, this time to her maximum, before using a downward slash towards Aidan, who parried using his sheathed sword since he didn't want to cleave through her sword with his.

"Alright, stop you two." Shouted Riveria as she came closer to their duel. "You won't adjust properly by fighting each other since you both have about the same strength. Fight me instead." She finished as she took out her staff and entered a defensive posture.

With a glance at each other, they both sped up towards the elf as they started to send strikes towards the women, who were without exception parried by her staff which seemed to be made of tough and enchanted wood.

As the women constantly blocked them due to her significantly higher parameters and level, Aidan opened his eyes wide. Right after Ais finished her attack, Aidan used his newly acquired 'Triple-step' combat technique.

With the first step in the direction of Riveria, Aidan started his strike, which cleaved towards his target. As she was about to parry his strike once more, he took the second step, which lowered his center of gravity, causing the sword to speed under her guard. Finally, he took the third step, causing all of his muscles to tense as the speed and strength of the blade more than tripled in a single moment.

"Huf." Riveria opened her eyes wide as she barely blocked the strike thanks to her higher level but was still slightly repelled due to holding a weak stance.

With a frown on his face, Aidan collapsed on the ground as he took a deep breath as all of his muscles ached. "What was that?" Exclaimed Riveria as she had never seen such a technique that strengthened the speed and strength to such a degree.

"This was the memory received when I broke through." He explained in short, concise words.

"It is a high-human combat technique. It is incredible! However, I can understand why only high-humans possess this kind of technique." She quipped as she looked at Aidan, who was not going to move for a little while.

"The technique is quite powerful. You should be able to kill an average level three monster with this strike. However, above that, you won't be able to kill them. You might be able to hurt a weak level four, but that's it. The reason you managed to repel me slightly was that I didn't use much force when fighting with you and my stance was loose." She explained with a slight blush on her face as she was repelled by a newly upgraded level two adventurer, especially an adventurer of eight years old.

"However, this technique has two obvious flaws from what you showed me. The first one is this." She said as she pointed at the boy. "You won't be able to move a muscle after using the technique since it's an obvious overload of your muscles. It is also the reason why only high-humans used this kind of technique. On one side, it's due to your innately higher parameters, and the second is due to your race being combat-maniac and combat-geniuses."

"The second flaw is that it's only usable against human-like enemies since your strike won't reach those much bigger than you, such as a dragon or a lot smaller than you, such as an ant." She explained as she half-closed her eyes and nodded her head as she imparted her knowledge with full assurance of herself.

"The technique possesses three variations especially made for those two exceptions you talked about. There are other sets of steps made for downwards slashes for small enemies and two sets for taller enemies, of which one finished with a jump to reach the target." He explained with a wry smile as he saw the elven women turn red as; she turned her head to the side and coughed in her fist.

"Well, I only wanted to notify the two of you." Said the executive as she changed the subject. "Tomorrow, Ais will leave with me on a mission to the elven forest. You will be going with Finn from tomorrow onwards. If everything goes as planned, I'll be back in Orario two months later." She finished as she turned around.

"Prepare your bags. We'll be leaving at six tomorrow morning." Were the words the two children received as the women disappeared from their sight.
