When they venture out between the lower floor to floor 18th. Ryuu, now realize the captain of Artemis' Familia's prowess. Is he really a level 1? she doubted. But Artemis herself said so and pointed out that he's strong even without having her Falna.

With this, she saw Zetta in a new light but still wary of him. She feel something about him which is similar but different from Adenturer she knew but she cannot put them into words. 'What is it?' she thought and glance at him from time to time.

And so Minotaurs came but subdued in a mere flash by Zetta alone. even Asfi's curiousity grabbed by him. Hermes at the same time, only smiled.

'That smug face' Zetta thought so and still saw Hermes face coz's he is too wary of this God. At 16th floor, he let Asfi and Ryu handle the monsters as they too are swift and strong, with Ryuu's cuncurrent chanting and Asfi's speed, they annihilate monsters much faster than him alone, as if they were comrade in arms since ages ago

Zetta at the same time walk side by side by Hermes and talk "I don't know what kind of Ploy you' wish on doing. But let not involve my Goddess or I'll sent you back to heaven myself". his threat isn't as effective as he thought, that Hermes only grinned instead and didn't replied back.

'This F*cking God. why did I fond of his name again?' Zetta is at lost. and so they came at 17th floor. while in halfway towards the 18th floor, walls crumbles and there, like a fossil emerged one titanic named Goliath. a Monster Rex of 17th floor. Its been a month and its already spawn at this time. The Goliath then clench its fists and punch the group hard. But thanks to Asfi and Ryuu.. they blow off the Gods and Goddesses away while others run for their lives, Zetta at the same time and slit open its arm; wind and blood created in a formed like that of a slithered snake as he use <Eagle Stomp> and <Air walk> successively while slashing the Boss' arm until its armpit. He then used <Stomp> to the side to missed its punch. His move is too fast, and thanks to him that others made it out safe and now sliding through the 18th floor with his Goddess Artemis in tow—while Hestia didn't stop her scream as her voice are still echoing from 17th floor. Ryu look at him in worried but he glance at her telling, "I'll kill this thing alone! don't mind me!" But she didn't obey his orders and instead attack the Goliath too.

"Tsk! you don't know what order means, do you?"

"Orders, whats that?"

Zetta smiled by the elf' such asanine reasonings

At 18th floor of the same time, Hestia's voice echoed along with Goliath's scream of pain. Bell Cranel rush towards the entrance where the voice of his Goddess is coming from. Followed by Ais and other high level Adventurer of Loki Familia.

Enough with their touching reunion as Asfi is about to get back to back the two up, but Hermes hold her shoulder to stop her from doing what she want. And so she obey her God's order without thinking. Artemis at the same time look worried and glanced at the exit they came from. The Goliath didn't stop its havoc as they still heared its scream and rumbling echoing sound...

"Is there someone fighting the Goliath?" Finn also look atop, whilst Artemis and others nodded. Ais at the same time move her heel and dash up with her Ariel. Noticing that the Goddes with blue haired color is Artemis herself. Finn asks her a couple of question as he too followed, commanding Raul and others to return to their camp and not let others came atop. Riveria, Gareth, the Amazoness and also Tsubaki followed the Pallum.

Hermes looks curious but didn't mind it and instead follow Raul and fragments of Loki Familia in their camp along with Bell, Hestia and Artemis and other Adventurers within them.

Meanwhile..

Ais look at the duo, Ryu and Zetta, dancing, and as if playing the Goliath as their attacks are synching without any delay. From left to right to up to down. They attack the poor Monster Rex clockwise as it screamed for help.

"Wow. Like what you said. He really indeed is strong.. but.. isn't that Girl.. the Gale?" Tsubaki are in awe, watching the dancer. And not their co-adventurer dancing to kill the poor Monster Rex. Actually she was with them spectating when killing the revenger, but because Zetta isn't active other than commanding and halfheartedly attacking from that time. Tsubaki did think that it was because of Loki Familia why they killed such monster but here, she now realize—

"I know about the Gale. but why is it Zetta-sensei are in sync with her?" It was Ais from the sideline. Others sweated as she called the Level 1 Zetta her master who was level 6. even without the latter's approval. As for why she knew. This two has been comparing with each other since Astrea Familia are still active inside the Orario where Ganeisha Familia, so she heard such alias once or twice. . .

"He's the one who's adjusting from her speed. He's the one who are synching himself from hers", Finn at the same time didn't stop his admiration to this man in front of him 'he never cease to amaze me. this Guy'. is what he thought

Zetta then stomped the Goliath's knee, nailing it into the ground as Ryu barrage her magic wind unto its back. they repeated the process until its core is at their reach and so finishing the job. Afterall, once the core is destroyed, no matter how strong, how touch an opponent is, its dead inebitable.

He smile from ear to ear again and raised his hand towards the elf as him and Ryu high-fived. And after this realization, Ryu subcononciously turned red and grab her hand who clasps with Zetta's. After looting the magic stone, Zetta realize there are spectators eyeing them. Ryu then pull her hood down.

"Another amazing feat" Finn raised his hand high as they too, do the high-five.

Thereafter, they returned to Loki Expedition Camp. Zetta insists on giving the magic stone unto Ryu along the way, but she denied, but then Zetta push them unto her forehead saying "this is a form of friendship between us, alright?" In the end, the green clothed elf accepted and have it as her memento. Zetta smiled watching her accept them. His heart skip a beat, unlike any other girls he saw, this time, his heart feels in love for the first time in a while. welp, he didn't know these feelings until the later date.
