Ais didn't think too much about whether it was reasonable or not. She only had one thought now, and that was...
"Can I go?"
The girl looked at Takumi with expectant eyes. Coupled with her delicate face and innocent temperament, it was unbearable to refuse her. It seemed that as long as he refused her request, he would feel a strong sense of guilt.
However, since Takumi told them these things, he had never thought of rejecting them.
"Of course, it is possible. Rather, you are very welcome to come to Dimensional City."
"The construction of Dimensional City has not yet been completed, and many things are still in the works. This is when people are needed."
"In that case, can we go too?"
Tiona heard the words and understood the implication of Takumi's words, and couldn't help but ask excitedly. After all, this is a different world!
A world that is completely different from theirs. There are many things they have never known, new things waiting for them to discover. Just thinking about it made Tiona fascinated.
As for whether this would be dangerous? Or is there a pitfall?
Riveria was also there. Out of respect and trust for Riveria, Tiona didn't think there would be any dangers or pitfalls here.
Lefiya thought the same thing and immediately looked at Takumi expectantly.
Takumi smiled and said, "Of course, you can all come."
"Not just you; your sister Tione, Finn, and Gareth—I will invite them later as well."
"I believe that neither Finn nor Loki will refuse. After all, this is a better leveling opportunity than the Dungeon."
"Yeah! That's great!"
Tiona was as excited as a child and jumped up on the spot. The same was true for Ais and Lefiya.
"It is too early to celebrate."
Seeing that Tiona seemed a little too excited, Riveria couldn't help but pour some cold water on her enthusiasm.
"I am inviting you over not to let you come as guests or to have fun, but to give you tasks to do."
"And we must keep this matter confidential. Although we are not afraid of exposure—because no matter how much trouble the gods here make, they will not affect Dimensional City—you are different. The foundation of the Loki Familia is still in this world."
"Therefore, if the matter leaks out, it will have no impact on us, but you will be in trouble."
"If another world is so attractive to you, imagine how those bored gods would react if you let them know..."
Riveria didn't continue, but Hestia and Hephaestus, two gods who knew better about the nature of other gods, took the initiative to pick up the conversation.
Hestia: "Don't even think about it; they will definitely go crazy and participate at all costs."
Hephaestus: "And when they find out that there is nothing they can do against us, you, who are still based in this world, will become their primary targets."
"Ugh..."
Tiona, who was cheering, was instantly embarrassed when she heard the words. Thinking about the consequences of exposure based on what they said, she couldn't help but break into a cold sweat and quickly promised:
"I will definitely keep it a secret, and I promise I won't tell even if I'm beaten to death."
Lefiya was also frightened into a cold sweat and nodded in agreement: "Yeah, me too."
As for Ais? She didn't care about this kind of thing at all and just asked impatiently:
"When can I go there?"
Riveria reached out her hand to rub Ais's head affectionately and softly comforted her:
"Don't worry, you won't have to wait too long. I will discuss it with Loki and Finn later and arrange the trivial matters here. It will be done in a few days at most."
"Mm."
Ais nodded, stopped asking, and continued to taste the food. Seeing this, Tiona and Lefiya stopped talking and continued to eat.
...
After they had eaten and drunk, Riveria took them over to the Loki Familia and called Loki, Finn, and the other senior executives of the Familia back to Twilight Manor to discuss business matters.
Ryuu also left. She planned to go back to the Benevolent Mistress, pack her things, say goodbye, and meet up with Kanae and the others tomorrow.
Takumi went to see Misaka Mikoto and the others.
At this time, Komatsu and Granny Setsuno had also finished their work and joined the banquet. They chatted and ate while laughing with the three of them. The atmosphere was quite harmonious. Even though Granny Setsuno was elderly, with her youthful mentality, there was not much of a generation gap with these young girls, and she could chat about everything. I have to say, this is also a skill.
"Sorry for the poor reception. Did everyone have a nice meal?"
"It's okay. After all, you have business to do."
"Yes, yes, everyone has eaten. Granny Setsuno's cooking is really great."
"The food was also eye-opening and well worth the trip."
Takumi nodded and said a few polite words to Granny Setsuno, thanking her for taking the time to come over and help. He also promised to reimburse the cost of ingredients and Granny Setsuno's cooking expenses. In this regard, Granny Setsuno accepted it unceremoniously and pointed out the elixir needed for payment.
Takumi paid the bill on the spot, taking the elixir and giving it to Granny Setsuno. After that, he stayed with them for a while, and once they had finished eating, he took them to experience the adventurers' celebrations. He also took them to the Dungeon to experience the special activity of fighting monsters in the maze.
The only pity was that because of today's turmoil, Orario's stores had closed early, which did not allow them to experience more of the otherworldly atmosphere. However, the five of them didn't complain. After walking around for a while, they had experienced almost everything they needed to experience.
Since it was already very late, they decided to go back.
"I have to go back quickly; otherwise, the dorms will close."
The first one to ask to go home was Misaka Mikoto, who had a curfew. Although she was on holiday today, the school dormitory was not on break. As long as she lived in the dormitory, she had to abide by the curfew.
"I have to go back too; my father will be worried about me if it gets too late."
When Lacus saw this, she also wanted to return. Although she had no strict curfew, she lived at home, and her family would worry if she returned too late.
Seeing that nothing else was happening, Komatsu and Granny Setsuno also decided to go back.
As for Nico Robin? She didn't care. Anyway, she had a house in Dimensional City and could leave at any time, so she went to find the other girls in Dimensional City to get to know them better.
So far, this banquet was completely over, and everyone went back to their homes.
Takumi personally escorted the four people who wanted to return to Dimensional City and sent them to the Dimensional Gate. Before leaving, he couldn't help but exchange a few polite words.
Granny Setsuno said that next time there was something like this, he could ask her for help, and she would definitely come if she was free.
Misaka Mikoto and Lacus thanked him for his hospitality and invited Takumi to visit their worlds when he was free. Takumi smiled and agreed to each of them.
