Sentata, now in the Loki Family dining hall, banged spoons and knives on the sides of his plate, demanding dinner. Interestingly, it was morning, and he hadn't eaten the previous day, thanks to Loki's pursuit. This deeply irritated him, especially because the best dish, a meat cake made by Aki-senpai, was served that night. Most members of the Loki Family watched him discontentedly, as he wasn't helping with the preparation.
Seated next to the Sword Princess, Sentata seemed completely immersed in his own indignation. He shot furious glances at the empty plate, as if the absence of the meat cake were a personal offense.
While the other members worked in the kitchen, they chose not to bring their complaints directly to Sentata, after all, he was sitting there with crossed arms, waiting alongside Ais, one of their stars; they wouldn't start an argument over something so trivial. Well, this didn't apply to Sentata.
Ais looked at him with her usual lack of expression. The Family Executives were usually exempt from household tasks, more as a privilege. Sentata wasn't in that category, but he was taking advantage of Ais since she was the only one sitting at the moment, and none of the members would complain near her.
The Sword Princess addressed him, "Sentata… don't you think you're being a bit selfish? Everyone is contributing to the meal, and you're just here complaining."
"Seriously? I don't see you contributing at all." Sentata retorted.
Ais looked away for a brief moment and replied, "I was told there was nothing to do…" She justified herself.
"So if there's nothing to do, what do you want me to do?" Sentata asked slyly.
Ais continued with her expressionless face for a few seconds; she probably wasn't accustomed to having this kind of dialogue "You could at least stop shouting while everyone is cooking." Ais argued.
Sentata lifted his gaze from the empty plate and cast a cold look at Ais "And who cares? Let them cook. I deserve my dinner after what I went through last night." Ais sighed in response.
The blue-haired boy frowned "And what if you were in my place? I bet you'd be as upset as I am for missing that juicy and delicious meal." No exaggeration, Sentata seemed to be drooling.
Ais thought to herself for a moment, reflecting on the situation. Indeed, she would also be upset if she missed the meat cake. "Well…" Ais seemed to drool at the thought.
At that exact moment, the atmosphere in the dining hall suddenly changed. The door swung open with vigor, revealing Tiona and Tione, the formidable twin Amazon sisters known for their overwhelming strength and intense personalities.
Tiona, with a mischievous smile, commented loudly enough for everyone to hear "Look, Tione, it seems that little Sentata is leading our Sword Princess astray."
Sentata's posture stiffened. He puffed out his chest and quickly stood up from his chair, "Well done, Tione-sama! Tiona-sama!" greeting the sisters by bowing his head comically.
He was terrified of the two, as whenever he escaped the Loki Familia, they would chase him and, well, beat him up. This made Sentata develop a certain subordination complex. Tiona and Tione were the alphas in the room at that moment.
Tione saw this only as disdain and told him to sit down and stop bothering everyone, while Tiona took advantage of the situation.
"Ah! It's so hot today, my throat is dry!" She waved her hand as a gesture of heat, pretending to be very thirsty.
This made Sentata disappear at a surprising speed and reappear with an elaborately decorated orange juice. Even the ice cubes were shaped like stars.
Tiona took the juice with a mischievous smile. "You're fast today, Sentata. Must be motivated by something."
Sentata just nodded frantically, eyes wide with fear. Tiona took a sip of the juice, making a theatrical grimace. "Ugh, it's terrible! You call this a drink!?"
Sentata nodded, expecting his punishment, but Tione interrupted, "Forget it, Tiona. He's done enough."
"Huh!? But I want another drink." The twin complained.
"Then go get it. Sentata, did you do what I told you?" Tione asked the boy.
In a quick move, he draped his arm over Ais's shoulder with a nervous smile. "Of course, Tione-sama, Ais and I got along very well with the task our glorious captain assigned us." He said with a nervous laugh at the end.
"Great, because if I find out you left all the work for Ais or caused trouble for the captain…" She didn't finish the sentence but snapped her fist in response.
"Yes… Tione-sama!" He replied with comic tears in his eyes, while his hand trembled on Ais's shoulder.
In contrast, Ais had her thoughts on her childhood; Sentata's attitude with the sisters was similar to hers and Riveria's… creepy.
In a spontaneous moment, Ais moved her hand over Sentata's blue hair and petted him. "There, there!"
The unexpected touch made Sentata take a minute to assimilate the gesture. In between the caress, he couldn't help but question with an ironic tone, "Am I your dog now?"
Ais, as impassive as ever, just gave him a look and said, "Calm down! Calm down!" as if trying to soothe a restless dog.
The sisters Tiona and Tione, witnessing the scene, burst into laughter, mocking how Sentata could now be considered the Loki Family mascot. Amid laughter, they also commented on how he had easily stolen Bete's place, which provoked even more laughter.
Although irritated, Sentata wanted to retort the "insults" but deep down, he still wanted to live a little longer. However, the situation began to bother him deeply, especially because Ais continued with her hand on his hair. That's when he decided to interrupt the touch… but quickly crossed his arms and nodded, thinking, "This is quite nice."
He began to reflect more on the situation and came to the surprising conclusion that he actually liked it. The blue-haired boy, with a satisfied face, allowed Ais to continue without further complaints.
In this moment of apparent tranquility, the door to the dining hall opened forcefully, revealing the grumpy figure of Bete, the Loki Familia werewolf. His eyes fixed on the scene, where Ais was caressing Sentata's hair, triggering a deep irritation in the werewolf.
Bete didn't waste time and let out his typical sarcastic grunt, "Tch, what are you doing, shrimp? Getting comforted after a failure?" Sentata took a moment to understand that Bete seemed to be jealous of the supposed affection of the Sword Princess.
A mischievous smile and malicious thoughts crossed Sentata's mind. Without hesitation, he hugged Ais and, with crocodile tears, said, "Ais, Bete is being mean."
"HEY! BACK OFF!?" Bete shouted, telling him to step away.
"Why should I do that? Ais and I are getting along, does it bother you in any way?" Sentata, on the other hand, was just taunting Bete. While Ais stood still, not understanding anything about the chaotic situation unfolding around her.
The sisters Tiona and Tione, who still enjoyed the previous situation, now laughed even louder at the new episode.
"Looks like Bete has a rival!" Tione spoke amidst the laughter.
"And he did more in one morning than Bete has ever done, the score is one to zero!" Tiona added with tears streaming down her eyes.
"SHUT UP! I'M GONNA KILL YOU!" A furious Bete yelled at the twins.
Meanwhile, Ais maintained her imperturbable expression. Not wanting to be caught in the crossfire, Sentata stood up and said to the Sword Princess "Anyway, it seems I won't get my meat cake… Ais, I'll use my second wish now, save a meal for me."
Ais gestured to the side of her neck, "Not waiting for breakfast?"
"I just remembered that the Captain wanted to talk to me yesterday, but I forgot, tehehe!" The boy said with a nervous laugh.
At that moment, Sentata felt a hand grabbing his shoulder. "Oh! So our captain summons you, and you just ignore it… unforgivable! I think you need a lesson." Sentata had no idea that in the midst of the brawl, Tione would pay attention to his words.
Sentata froze. "W-wait! Tione-sama! Can't we talk and…" His words fell on deaf ears when the Amazon's fist hit the boy's cheek, and a good beating ensued for the next few minutes that felt like hours.
Meanwhile, Ais watched the scene with her chin slightly raised, seeming proud of herself. It seemed like she was getting along with her companions as Riveria wanted; this brought a small smile to the blonde's face.
( Main Office)
"I understand the importance of it, nevertheless, I think it's an exaggeration." said Loki, the Goddess of the family.
She and four others were now in Finn's office, including Finn himself, the captain of the Family, Riveria and Gareth, two of the top executives, and the peculiar presence of an elf with white hair and armor, Galahad Van Animusphere.
It wasn't the first time the white-haired elf had come to the Loki Family's residence; he was genuinely looking to recruit them as supporters.
"Well, within a year, the races to inherit the position of Master of the Adventurer's Guild will begin. Since my late father, and my grandfather had to reassume, it has been turbulent. My younger siblings are fixated on their own viewpoints and don't see how their choice affects Orario and, in turn, the world." Galahad stated.
"Still, if the Loki Family establishes itself as supporters on your side, besides having an advantage over everyone, you'll have an almost guaranteed victory. On the flip side, we'll inherit your enemies and rivals." Finn pointed out, introducing the downside of the elf's proposal.
Galahad wished for the Loki Family to publicly support him in assuming the position of Master of the Guild, where they had both long-term disadvantages and advantages. It was risky above all…
The white-haired elf smiled neutrally at the Loki Family's captain. "I confess there are powerful people who don't support my rule, but most of them are either people the Loki Family dislikes or supporters of my younger siblings. They will be dealt with in due time, so…"
He was soon interrupted by the vice-captain of the Family "So, the Loki Family only stands to benefit by choosing a side? As far as I know, staying on the sidelines and not getting involved in politics seems like the right move at this moment, especially since the Animuspheres tend to be vengeful." Riveria asserted, being a high-elf who knew the Animusphere lineage well.
Galahad gave a constrained laugh that seemed forced "Well, Riveria-sama, I cannot deny that my ancestors are influential figures, but I ask that your judgment not be built on the past. After all, all of this is for the future." the elf said.
"Even so, you continue with the same ideas, revolution, is the term you use, right? Making a drastic change simply because you think it's correct. Where do the reforms of positions in the Guild and changes in rules for Families fit into that?" Riveria countered.
Galahad put his hand on his chin and said, "Guilty… However, I don't see how what I want to do would be inept for my allies or rivals." the elf said.
"Indeed! Many things in the Guild may be outdated, just like its members." Gareth decided to agree and end the dialogue between Riveria and Galahad, apparently she had a personal grudge with his lineage, so he preferred to avoid conflict between them.
Loki, who was sitting on Finn's desk, glanced at Galahad's only visible golden eye. "Galahad-kun, you should know that when negotiating with the higher-ups, you should at least provide advantages, or you'll have an immediate refusal." The goddess was cunning in leading him where she wanted.
Unfortunately for her, Galahad shook his head. "I don't plan to favor or disfavor anyone in this power shift in Orario, Riveria-sama used an excellent term that fits into this; I'm on the fence here too," Galahad said with a shy smile. "You have no charm at all; you really want to negotiate our support without benefiting us."
Loki said, almost as if she had heard an insult. Galahad scratched his head. "I thought we could have common interests. If one of my brothers succeeds in the power theme of Orario, it can be unbalanced. I sincerely wish to balance this as much as possible. In my honest opinion, adventurers are just that. We shouldn't meddle with you, especially because, Loki-sama, nothing scares me more than you or Freya-sama capriciously deciding to take Orario for yourselves. Who could stop that? Simply put, I don't see how I can empower people who have Orario at their feet." Galahad said sincerely with a brief laugh.
"As I said, you're boring! Men should be more challenging even when they don't have power; that's the fun of living, right?" Loki hummed again, putting her arms over her head.
Finn then crossed his hands at the fingertips under the table "Galahad-san, we will think about supporting you according to our own considerations, but we are subjective in this matter. We prefer not to get into a political fight. The Loki Familia has a much larger focus at the moment." the pallum declared.
Galahad, dissatisfied, still provided a smile. "I'm sure you will choose the right side eventually, so I hope you'll attend tomorrow night at Babel's anniversary. Even if it's a political event, it's a great place to drink and share stories." He said as he stood up and placed an invitation on the table.
"Well, we appreciate it, but events like this…" His words were cut off with an impulse kick on the door that made it fall.
"CAPTAIN! LANCE SENTATA REPORTING FOR YOUR CALL! SORRY FOR THE DELAY, AS I GOT INVOLVED IN AN EPIC BATTLE WITH A FRIGHTENING HYDRA!" Sentata arrived shouting with some bruises still present on his face.
"Sentata, it's not a good time…" Finn tried to speak but was interrupted.
"YOU MUST BE WONDERING, WHY I, THE GREAT SENTATA-SAMA, WHO NORMALLY HAS A WONDERFUL FACE THAT MANY WOULD KILL TO HAVE, IS ALL BEATEN UP AND YELLING…" Sentata then shook his head. "I WAS BEATEN SO BRUTALLY THAT MY EARS ARE RINGING, AND I'M NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE TONE OF MY VOICE. IN MY VIEW, I'M SPEAKING NORMALLY!" Sentata declared.
"You're serious…" Once again, he was cut off.
"BUT I REMEMBERED THAT YESTERDAY I WAS SUMMONED BY YOU, BUT I WAS HIDING FROM THE SPITEFUL GODDESS AND FORGOT! SO I WILL PROVIDE MY REPORT…" This time Sentata couldn't finish his sentence, as an enraged Loki jumped on him like a spider and began her own beating.
"WHO ARE YOU CALLING SPITEFUL!!!" The goddess said as she exchanged blows with Sentata's head and shed crocodile tears.
"I see that this is a lively environment, much like your members." Galahad said with a brief laugh watching the scene.
Finn, with his palm on his head, simply said, "Sorry for this…"
Galahad then looked at the blue-haired boy with red eyes who was now trying to hold back the blows from the enraged goddess. "Imagine… Finn-san, would this boy be Heimdall?" The elf asked.
"Indeed…" Finn said, looking sideways at the other executives.
"Rumors say he can see the future. I wonder how true that could be…" Galahad tossed it into the wind. "Anyway, I'll take my leave now." The elf then looked sideways at Sentata, who was caught in an arm lock by Loki.
( Scene transition)
While Loki sat theatrically on top of Séntata, who was on all fours and still trying to explain himself, Finn sighed at the scene before him. He scratched his head before initiating the dialogue he intended to lead.
"Well, as I was saying…" Finn began, trying to maintain seriousness despite the unusual scenario. "We've received some feedback from team members about how we operate in the dungeon."
Séntata snorted in irritation, but Loki remained seated in an imposing manner, looking more like a queen than a mischievous goddess. Finn continued, momentarily ignoring the bizarre situation.
"It seems there are some concerns about your approach, Séntata. They feel you only act at opportune moments and leave the heavy lifting to your companions."
Séntata, now under Loki's stern gaze, grumbled, "Nonsense. I won't jump into a fight with creatures I've never faced. It's just a matter of strategy."
Loki intervened, leaning toward Séntata with a mocking smile. "Strategy or cowardice, Séntata-kun? It seems your comrades are divided."
The warrior responded vehemently, "It's not cowardice. It's intelligence. Besides, even Raul almost lost an arm or leg in the dungeon on that occasion."
Riveria spoke up this time, "The point is not who was acting in the best way in the dungeon; the point is that your individual actions within a group have consequences. With your abilities, it would be nearly impossible for Raul to end up in such a situation."
Séntata, cunning despite his drawbacks, knew how to navigate situations that could disadvantage him, especially with figures of authority. Interestingly, he acquired this skill after years of interaction with Captain Hermes.
Riveria continued, "Using your ability constantly might draw unwanted attention, but Lefiya was there to heal him if necessary, Séntata-kun. You just choose not to use it to avoid drawing attention to yourself, right?"
Séntata hummed in response, whistling innocently. "Tch… If I use it all the time, you guys will just give me more work." he grumbled.
Finn crossed his arms. "Indeed, having a combat prediction ability is excellent. However, in the dungeon, where anything can happen at any moment, that ability can be deadly. You could be the most acclaimed and sought-after adventurer in Orario."
Finn, as the captain of the family, was fortunate to have talents like Ais, Tiona, Tione, Lefiya, and even Bete in the new generation of his family. However, nothing compared to Séntata; such a powerful ability was a game-changer even against opponents of higher levels. Guiding the potential of his members to the fullest was always his goal, but doing so with Séntata was a challenge, to say the least.
"I know where this is going, old man. As I've said many times, I'm not foolish enough to risk myself for a few coins or the recognition of a bunch of strangers. Especially with my handsome face being the target for enemies. Do you have any idea how many jealous men and women would want me dead within a week?" Séntata said sharply.
"And that's why I'm taking you on the next expedition." Finn simply continued.
"Hey, are you ignoring me!?" Séntata shouted indignantly.
"Séntata, you'll be on the front line." Finn declared.
"What!? Are you crazy!? I'm going to die! 100% sure!!!" Séntata even tried to get up; Loki started galloping on him, hindering his movements. The boy wondered how a slender goddess like her could prevent a Level 3 adventurer with many times the strength of an average adult from moving, but some things in the world simply didn't make sense.
"This will be your punishment for how you acted in the dungeon with your group. On the front line, you will lead the group, and I imagine you'll want to use your prediction ability to avoid death and help the group, of course, to save them if necessary." Finn seemed to exude a sinister aura in Séntata's eyes.
"Is he a demon!?" Séntata shouted into the wind.
"I imagine that's what you'll want, to cooperate from now on. Well, that's all we had to say," Finn said, ending the meeting and starting to gather some papers. Séntata, on the other hand…
"Just that, my ass, you damn short bastard! I'll end you!" Séntata jumped like a hedgehog, throwing Loki aside, heading towards Finn.
"GARETH PUNCH!!!" But he was met with a powerful punch from Gareth that threw him to the ground.
"Gareth-san! Why!? Traitor!" Séntata said, holding his stomach while lying on the ground.
Gareth crossed his arms. "You can't attack the head of the family for nothing. Not to mention, have you thought about what Tione would do if she knew you attacked Finn!"
Séntata widened his eyes in horror and quickly knelt before the two men in the room. "Forgive me, Captain Finn. I will follow your orders to go into the dungeon, even if it means sacrificing all my comrades for my life. Gareth-sama, thank you for preventing me from making the LAST mistake of my life." He repeatedly banged his head on the floor.
"Hahaha! This is not funny! Anyway, how's your other task going?" Loki asked the boy, now sitting in an armchair.
"Task?" Finn asked, not understanding.
"Oh! I think I forgot to mention, I asked Séntata to socialize with Ais." Loki affirmed. Finn didn't quite understand why, but Riveria quickly answered.
"It's for her education," Riveria said simply, causing both Finn and Gareth, as well as Séntata himself, to have some degree of understanding.
"Are you guys really using me?" Séntata asked.
"Well, it was by chance, a conveniently timed coincidence, to tell the truth. Séntata-kun, more than anyone, must have realized that my Ais-tan is a bit detached from the world outside the dungeon. I thought someone like you might be a breath of fresh air for her." Loki affirmed.
Séntata, on the other hand, grunted. "Don't give me that. You're just using me so that Ais has a bad experience with someone she doesn't like."
"BINGO! Séntata-kun is incredibly smart." Loki's euphoric praise brought a smile to the boy's lips, but soon his irritated expression returned.
"Séntata-kun, you don't like Ais much, do you?" Loki asked astutely.
"Tch! What does it matter? What's wrong with not liking the glorious Sword Princess?" Séntata asked.
"I would say you two are opposites at certain angles, but you're more alike than I would like to admit. Séntata-kun, you say you don't like Ais, and yet I heard you treat her very well. Why is that? Why don't you like her?" Loki asked.
The boy crossed his arms with a sulky expression. "It's annoying to think about how I act and when I act around her, that girl, seriously… She has some issues."
Loki opened her eyes and looked deeply into Séntata's eyes. "What I think is, you seem to admire her and have a certain instinct to protect your image around her. But not because it's Ais herself… It would be something like… Everything I would like to be is there."
"You can stop right there, Loki." The boy said seriously.
"Tehehe." Loki returned to her usual nature.
"Anyway, Séntata-kun, I see that your task is making progress, so I'll give you your next important task…"
( Scene transition)
And in a dark room, several figures were seated with a serious expression, looking at a young person with a shrewd look in front of them.
"We are all gathered here for a very important reason... So important that it could cause the end of the world's existence itself, so chilling that even the Black One-Eyed Dragon avoids this occasion, so strange that..." He was soon interrupted.
"S-Sentata-san, could you turn on the light?" Lefiya spoke.
"Thanks for cutting the drama short, Lefiya." Sentata said, turning on the light in the room.
"Speak up, shrimp! I don't have time to waste here." This time it was Bete grumbling discontentedly.
"Tch... Tough crowd." The entire first and second groups of the Loki Family were gathered in the same place, except for Finn, Gareth, Riveria, and Ais.
"Well, I'll get straight to the point. As many of you may not know, a very important date is approaching, and I need your support to make it a success." Sentata returned to his dramatic tone.
"A date?" Tiona spoke into the air.
"Exactly, the most important day of your miserable lives, the... Birthday of Ais Wallenstein." Everyone could swear they heard bells ringing at the mention of the Sword Princess's name.
"Ais's birthday? I didn't know it was now..." Tiona commented.
"I never heard her talk about it." Tione added.
"Well, Ais-san doesn't talk much about anything..." Alicia spoke for herself, expressing the thoughts of the majority.
"Anyway, we need to celebrate this day as if it were the last thing we'd ever do... No, as if we had a single day of our lives to eat Aki-sama's meat cake." Sentata declared enthusiastically.
Aki, the cat girl, scratched her ears. "Well, it's not that good, I think it still lacks..." She wasn't heard by some of the members who were drooling at the memory of the taste.
"HEY! Wait a minute, shrimp! Until yesterday, you and Ais hardly spoke, why suddenly do you want to throw a party for her?" Bete asked.
Sentata had no answer to that, so he started whistling.
"Well, he went to Finn's office earlier, probably it's a punishment for him to do something nice for everyone, or else something worse will happen to him, and he's using this as an excuse to have less work and all the credits." It was Tiona who had the perspicacious thought.
"As expected of Tiona-sama, schemers think alike, I would do exactly that..." Sentata thought.
In fact, Loki gave him the task of assisting in Ais's "training" in social life. She assured him that if he did everything correctly and had satisfactory results, he could maintain his "lazy" lifestyle without Finn or the other Executives sending him on dangerous expeditions or tiring tasks.
"Regardless of the reasons, Ais is a friend who helps everyone, so of course, we're going to celebrate with her all night tomorrow." Sentata declared.
"I'm not sure, Sentata-kun, Ais doesn't seem like the type of person who enjoys a festive atmosphere." Aki pointed out.
"Ais will like what I tell her to like, even if we have to make her drink tons of that disgusting mead." Sentata said with an arrogant smile.
"Tch! As I thought, you just want to benefit from it." Cruz said, he still seemed upset with Sentata from past events. "For me, you can deal with your punishment or whatever it is on your own." He then began to walk out of the room.
"HEY, Cruz-kun, wait! Finn, Riveria, Gareth, and Loki will be out tomorrow night, and we can make all the mess we want... Oh, he's already gone." Sentata needed all the help he could get for this to work. He knew little about Ais and even less about celebrations.
Fortunately, he managed to drive all the authority figures away for festivities. Sentata believed that no one even remotely responsible would be at a wild party.
Sentata then clapped his hands together. "Anyway, I'm counting on everyone's help for tomorrow's preparations. I need to make our Princess the happiest in the world. I bet she'd even give a thank-you kiss to the most dedicated one." With little hope, he was already heading into the bribery phase.
The members of the Loki Family thought it over and drew their own conclusions, then said in unison, "No!"
They knew that Sentata wasn't someone who did a complete job. At the first opportunity, he would abandon everything and leave everyone in the lurch. He had a questionable reputation.
"I've already said that anyone who helps me has my word that they can use me as a personal slave for an entire day, and I'll do anything... ANYTHING!" Sentata affirmed with a serious and trembling look, and with the thought, "What are a few bad days compared to an intense day in the dungeon." Images of him running from monsters came to his mind.
"Sounds fun, you'll be a good cupbearer." Bete said.
"I could make him clean the kitchen." Aki said to herself.
"Think big, for once he can wash his own sheets." Raul added.
"A day with Sentata-kun, he would look lovely in a nice suit and silent for a whole day." Alicia commented to Lefiya, who had a drop on her head.
"Well, he already does everything I want, we could throw him in a corner of the dungeon and force him to face monsters without being able to escape or use his abilities. It would be hilarious to see his desperate look screaming for the great Tiona-sama to save him." Tiona said in an almost sadistic tone, but amidst laughter.
"I could use him..." Tione said mysteriously.
For a minute, Sentata regretted it, but it was for a good cause, his freedom from this damn dungeon and staying as far away as possible from these crazies.
"Anyway, as we wrap up here, Sentata, after this, we're going to do that." Tione spoke to everyone's curiosity except Tiona and the boy's sigh.
"One more tiring day..." He muttered.
(Meanwhile)
It had been a few hours, and the dining hall was empty, but she continued diligently with her task.
Ais Wallenstein continued to wait for Sentata with a bowl of soup and a piece of bread, with a determined look while disguising her own desire to eat her own food, which she also kept.
Riveria once said that eating with others was a way to make friends, and as Sentata asked her to guard his meal, she continued with her task, no matter how long it took.
( To be continued...)
Curiosity: The Amazons have a natural warrior nature; however, in exchange for their talent in the art of combat, significant stress accumulates in their body and mind. This compels them to constantly seek relief in some form, often opting for sexual practice and choosing a definitive partner. In common cases, Amazons also engage with non-definitive partners for their constant relief, and these partners typically exhibit traits similar to the definitive partners chosen by the Amazons, such as appearance or personality.
Note: Autor: Honestly, this story received feedback that was surprisingly adequate. I didn't really expect it, as it's a casual narrative that would be mentioned only briefly in the main story, and not an "epic tale" as it will be portrayed in these seven chapters. So, my dear readers, tell me, what did you like about this story? Was it the protagonist (I find him amusing), the main cast being the Loki family, or perhaps... do you hate Ais and want to see her getting her comeuppance until the end? LoL. Let me know. After all, this story has canonical events, and depending on how things go, I thought about even accelerating the encounter between a certain "Reaper" and a certain "Coward." I imagined a cartoonish scene of a rabbit fleeing from death, thus Séntata was created. Anyway...
