Chapter 812: Heretics Land on the Surface

"M-monster?!"

A girl who had only been an Adventurer for a short time, while preparing to enter the Dungeon for an adventure on a new day, came face to face with a group of monsters who looked extremely troublesome walking toward her; the girl was so nervous she directly drew the Beginner Sword at her waist and pointed it trembling at the red Lizardman leading them.

Just as the girl's mind began to flash before her eyes, feeling she would die today at the Dungeon entrance, a half-elf wearing a sharp black suit quickly stepped out from behind the red Lizardman.

"Don't be nervous, this Adventurer miss, these are Heretics."

Eina hurriedly stepped forward and presented her Guild Staff Certificate, then spoke to soothe the Adventurer girl opposite who seemed to be having a bit of a stress reaction.

"Miss Eina, and the Sword Princess————"

The Adventurer girl recognized the half-elf; at the same time, she also discovered that there were some famous Adventurers beside the Heretics.

"Why are you walking together with monsters?"

"This Adventurer miss, have you perhaps not paid attention to the Guild's announcements recently?"

"What announcement?"

"The Guild and the Gods of Orario's various Familias discussed and decided to preliminarily establish relations with the intelligent monsters of the Dungeon, the Heretics————"

Eina explained.

And such words, she had walked all the way out of the Dungeon and already explained many times to many Adventurers who didn't read the Guild announcements and encountered their party.

For the Heretics to integrate into Orario, it must be done bit by bit; first bringing out a portion of the Heretics with gentle and stable personalities to leave the Dungeon and come to the surface to live is the first step.

"Of course, the Guild worries about possible risks; therefore, the Adventurer Party hired by Mr. Tyrant of Extreme Desire was employed for escort."

During work using official titles, facing outsiders now, Eina's address for the Saiyan boy was comparatively official.

But hearing it in the Adventurer girl's ears, it just meant the Guild does things very cautiously, still maintaining vigilance toward these intelligent monsters, the Heretics.

However, in Broly's own people's view, it was more like preventing some Adventurers from possibly committing extreme acts of attacking the Heretics.

"This Adventurer miss, you are preparing to go to the Dungeon, right? Please be careful all the way."

The Dungeon entrance belongs to the situation where the front is extremely narrow, and the lower you go to the Lower Floors the wider it gets; Broly and Reid and the others made way for this Adventurer girl.

And as the other party walked through the crowd mixed with Heretics, her eyes couldn't help but glance toward the tall red Lizardman.

"Is there something on my face?"

Reid detected the human girl's gaze and asked with some puzzlement.

"Ah, I was just curious, s-sorry————"

Caught peeking, the Adventurer girl's face reddened, and she hurriedly apologized.

She didn't dare stay longer, her steps somewhat panicked, and she passed through the middle of the group of Heretics.

"Is it really okay for an Adventurer like her to go adventure in the Dungeon?"

Reid looked at the girl's still staggering steps and couldn't help but worry.

"Newbie Adventurers are mostly like that; they'll be fine after training. Nowadays when new Adventurers register, the Guild helps pay a month's resurrection insurance; as long as they aren't dragged back to the nest and eaten by Killer Ants, there shouldn't be much problem.

However, perhaps before that, the other party will experience the danger of being an Adventurer in the Dungeon and give up the idea of being an Adventurer themselves."

Eina answered; she remembered that girl had registered as an Adventurer just one week ago, was a member of a small Familia, but the other party's Dungeon Advisor was not herself, but the senior Guild front desk staff, Miss Rosa the Werewolf.

Walking out of the Dungeon, sunlight shone down.

Reid's lizard eyes were instantly covered by a layer of white nictitating membrane.

"So this is the surface's sunlight, it really is dazzling!"

"It'll be fine once you adapt."

"Mr. Broly, next do we go directly to the Orphanage side?"

Songstress Bird Rei asked directly; her adaptability to sunlight was a bit better than the Lizardman Reid's.

"No, we have to go to the Guild side first to do a registration, and conveniently receive your certificates."

"Registration I know, but what are certificates?"

"Things that prove your Heretic identities, just like my staff certificate."

Eina held her own staff certificate and introduced and explained beside them.

"Currently only this way can distinguish the difference between you Heretics and ordinary monsters."

Eina spoke while leading the way toward the direction of the Guild Headquarters.

On the road, they encountered many people, both Adventurers and Orario residents.

Some who already knew the Guild announcement were not surprised by Heretics appearing in the city, merely casting curious gazes at this group of special monsters.

But some people didn't know the announcement; seeing monsters appear on Orario's streets, they panicked a bit, thinking the Dungeon monsters were attacking the city.

However, with the previous Colosseum's Divine Power live broadcast, the panicked people also quickly gradually calmed down under the explanation of some people nearby who knew the Guild announcement.

Especially seeing that beside the Heretics there were also the Sword Princess, Tyrant of Extreme Desire and others; hmm, powerful Adventurers can still bring a sense of security.

"Mr. Broly, I feel the surface people's gazes looking at us seem a bit strange?"

Half-Bird Feier leaned over, carefully grabbing the Saiyan boy's clothes corner.

"Because they don't understand, so they are comparatively curious about you all."

Broly answered.

"Of course, before letting you all walk up to the front desk, if those publicity preparations hadn't been done in advance, then the gazes people look at you with now should be fear."

Lefiya supplemented beside them.

"Uh, seems there is fear inside too, just like that Adventurer girl we encountered at the Dungeon entrance just now."

Reid suddenly said.

"Can't be helped, this is an unavoidable thing, but I believe later, after surface people have a deeper understanding of you Heretics, the situation will improve.

Additionally, you all must pay more attention to your fangs and claws, be careful not to hurt people; the ordinary people of the surface world are not like the monsters in the Dungeon, the greeting ways you think are normal might just hurt the other party.

If a hurting-people incident occurs, the situation will become comparatively troublesome; don't look around randomly, I'm talking to you, Miss Vampire Rabbit————"

"Chirp chirp chirp~"

A female rabbit, forty centimeters in size, hurriedly began to explain herself.

She opened her mouth and spread her hands, as if wanting to show she had no fangs or claws.

"Your habit of expressing your affection through pouncing and ramming, I hope you can restrain it a bit, especially when we head to the orphanage later; those ordinary children there can't withstand a full-force collision from a Lv. 2 magic beast."

The female rabbit drooped her long ears, chirping weakly twice from her mouth, just as if answering, 【I understand, I'll try to restrain myself.】

"I'll try to restrain myself."

Upon entering the Guild Headquarters, registering the Heretic Children who had come to the surface this time, the God Hermes finished harassing a pretty young lady at the Guild reception and walked over here, saying in a low voice to Broly: "The Divine Power live broadcast preparations are all done; the host from the Ganesha Familia is standing by. Are the Heretic Children on your side ready?"

"No problem, I've explained everything clearly."

Broly nodded.

"Good, then, Uranus, I apply for permission to use Divine Power."

Hermes shouted into the air.

"Permission granted."

Following the reply from the Founding God of Orario, Uranus, from the void, Divine Power Screens emerged in streets and alleys throughout Orario.

"Everyone of Orario, I am Cocoro of the Ganesha Familia, this is our God————"

"I am Ganesha~"

"Some of you probably already know the announcement the Guild issued two days ago, preparing to establish relations with the Dungeon Heretic Children. Our Familia has received a special invitation from the Guild to dispel the citizens of Orario's doubts about whether the Intelligent Magic Beast Heretic Children will bring hazards to the city. We will conduct a tracking-style live broadcast interview with the Heretic Children who have come to the surface today————"

The Divine Power broadcast lens turned toward the Heretic Children currently at the Guild counter.

"As everyone can see, those are the Heretic Children, and they are currently queuing at the Guild counter to register."

"Name?"

"Reed."

"Species?"

"Heretic Child, Lizardman."

"Age?"

"I'm not sure; anyway, I've lived in the Dungeon for quite a few years."

In a series of questions and answers, Reed quickly finished the registration and received a special certificate issued by the Guild proving Heretic Child identity.

"When encountering magic beasts in the city, please don't panic; you can seek help from nearby City Guards; the City Guards will confirm whether the magic beast has a Heretic Child certificate issued by the Guild."

As the host reporter, a member of the Ganesha Familia hurriedly provided this popular science explanation.

——

"This Lizardman Heretic Child sir, I am Cocoro of the Ganesha Familia, may I interview you for a moment?"

"Uh, sure, go ahead."

"Could I ask you to introduce the situation of you Heretic Children?"

"No problem, we Heretic Children are born from the Dungeon, a group of magic beasts with wisdom and rationality."

"Your name, Reed, is?"

"It's a name I gave myself; you people on the surface have names independent of species to distinguish individuals, right? So we Heretic Children also give ourselves a name, after all, among Heretic Children there are also those of the same species but different individuals."

"Then may I ask some sensitive topics?"

"Go ahead and ask."

"When you Heretic Children were in the Dungeon, did you ever attack Adventurers?"

"Generally we don't actively attack Adventurers, but to say we've never exchanged blows with Adventurers at all would absolutely be a deceptive lie. Before this, we Heretic Children were always treated as ordinary magic beasts; if we ran into Adventurers, they would instead attack us as ordinary magic beasts."

Before this, we Heretic Children were always treated as ordinary monsters; if we encountered Adventurers, they would instead attack us as ordinary monsters.

"No, we adopt a repulsion strategy; when Adventurers can't beat us, they generally choose to retreat, and for us who live in the Dungeon, guaranteeing we don't get injured is forever more important than killing the opponent. After all, there are no Healers in the Dungeon to treat us Heretic Children; if we get injured, when we encounter Adventurers or ordinary magic beasts, we might be attacked and killed."

"Wait, you're saying when you encounter other magic beasts in the Dungeon, you also get attacked?"

"Yes, the reason we Heretic Children call ourselves Heretic Children is because we ourselves are also attacked by the Dungeon's ordinary magic beasts. Just like people from the surface world get attacked when they go to the Dungeon, although born in the Labyrinth, we Heretic Children are instead incompatible with the Labyrinth. So, regarding this matter of the Guild and you people on the surface being willing to try to accept us, we are truly very grateful————"

First explaining their predicament of being attacked by both Adventurers and ordinary magic beasts in the Dungeon, then the scene of Heretic Children queuing before the live Divine Power lens simultaneously bowing in thanks, made many Orario residents watching this scene fall silent.

"Then after coming to the surface, do you have plans for how to survive on the surface from now on?"

"Actually the Guild has already sent people to talk to us about this; they said they would first designate an area for us to temporarily reside, and we Heretic Children have the advantage of understanding the Dungeon Labyrinth terrain, so we should make a living in that aspect from now on; of course, if there are other jobs on the surface suitable for us, we'll do those too."

"The Guild is renting our Familia's base, Hearth Manor, to temporarily serve as a place to take in the Heretic Children; everyone of Orario, please don't worry, our Familia's strength is something you all understand to some extent, and we are willing to exert a part of our strength for Orario's stability."

Broly stepped forward to speak; on the surface it was managing the Heretic Children, but in reality he was acting as guarantor for the Heretic Children, guaranteeing they would not pose a threat to Orario.

"Tyrant of Extreme Desire sir, so that's how it is; looks like the Guild considered a lot, unexpectedly hiring you, this really makes one feel at ease."

"Actually, the Guild has already dispatched personnel to talk with us about this matter, saying they would first designate an area for us to temporarily reside; and we Heretic Children have the advantage of understanding the Dungeon Labyrinth's terrain, so in the future we should make a living through this aspect. Of course, if there is other suitable work for us on the surface, we would do that as well."

"The Guild is renting our Familia's base, Hearth Manor, to temporarily serve as a place to take in the Heretic Children. Everyone in Orario, please do not worry. You are also aware of our Familia's strength, and we are instead willing to exert a share of effort for Orario's stability."

Broly stepped forward to speak; on the surface it was to manage the Heretic Children, but in reality he was serving as guarantor for the Heretic Children, guaranteeing they would not pose a threat to Orario.

"I said before that Heretic Children might be magic beasts transformed from the defective souls of Adventurers who died in the Dungeon, and during this time through my investigation and research, Heretic Children do indeed possess fragments of Past Life Memories; although they can't recall who they were in their Previous Lives, upon hearing me say there are children who became orphans because their parents died in the Dungeon, these Heretic Children are instead willing to do their part for those children who became orphans————"

Broly's words, every sentence was a great truth that could pass the Divine Eye, just a bit montage.

"By the way, the sentiment you speak of is?"

"The Heretic Children plan to sponsor Orario's orphanage."

"I said before that Heretic Children might be monsters transformed from the defective souls of Adventurers who died in the Dungeon. During this period, through my investigation and research, Heretic Children indeed possess fragments of past life memories. Although they cannot recall who they were in their previous lives, upon hearing me speak of children who became orphans because their parents died in the Dungeon, these Heretic Children were instead willing to extend a share of goodwill toward those orphaned children————"

Every word Broly spoke was a great truth that could pass the Divine Eye, just somewhat montage.

"Wait, what do you mean by 'intent'?"

"The Heresy plans to sponsor Orario's Orphanage."

"Huh?"

Cocoro looked from the light toward Reed, her surprised eyes seemingly asking: Do these Heretics have money?

"Over these years, when we Heretics made a living in the Dungeon Labyrinth, we also hunted some ordinary monsters, yet we've saved up quite a few Magic Stones————"

Reed took out a black cloth bag and handed it to the Half-Elf lady beside him: "Miss Eina, could you trouble yourself to help us exchange these Magic Stones for money."

Under the live broadcast Lens, the Dungeon local specialties brought by the Heretics were exchanged into bag after bag of substantial Valis.

Then, under Hermes' tracking-style filming, the Heretics went to the Orphanage on Daedalus Street, and face-to-face handed over a pile of money bags, roughly Fifty Million Valis, to the person responsible for the Orphanage.

The reason for not giving more was worry that money would move hearts.

After giving the money came the process of interacting and playing with the Orphanage children; under the Divine Power Broadcast Lens, the Heretics all carefully restrained the fangs and claws existing on their bodies, just afraid of hurting the Orphanage kids.

The children were restrained at first, but with gradual contact they slowly let go; Miss Man Tu was treated as a large plush pillow and surrounded by a group of little girls, Reed lay on the ground arching his body and was used by the children as a lizard slide, Half-Bird Feier and the Songstress Bird Rei had a group of little girls gathered around them, yet they were praising how beautiful their feathers were.

In the Orphanage, it was a scene of Humans and Monsters getting along Harmoniously————

"After this, we'll still come back to sponsor these Orphanage children.

According to Mr. Broly's words, among them there might be our Previous Life's children."

Although today was a show, Reed was exceptionally happy.

Normally, the surface people they Heretics encounter in the Dungeon are all out to shout and kill them.

But now, these surface Orphanage children actually have no Malice toward them.

Reed, ridden on the neck by a little boy, said this under the Lens.

"Ye En, I don't know what you and your Main God are plotting, but at a time when Loki and Ganesha Familia are watching us tightly, you instead have us go destroy the Guild's matter of accepting Heretics — are you afraid our bunch of guys hiding in the dark doing smuggling business won't be Discovered?"

Artificial Labyrinth, Ikaros Familia's Regiment Commander, Dix Perdix looked at the Black Robe person before him with a hostile face.

"Not wanting to do it works too, but once Heretics are completely accepted by Orario later, and receive the Guild's protection, do you think your business of smuggling Heretics can still continue?"
