Just by looking at the difference between a cat and a tiger in real life, you should be able to understand why, whether it's the size difference or the strength difference.
Even if Arya were to reach her full potential, she would probably only ever be a small leopard.
"Dong dong."
There was a knock on the door.
The three members of the Saintess Squad stood up.
After Lycorina responded, the door to the reception room was pushed open.
Immediately afterwards, Elsa, dressed in a warrior's outfit, stepped into the reception room.
Both Lycorina and Miluko opened their eyes wide at the same time.
Logically speaking, Elsa should have been able to sense their murderous aura even from hundreds of meters away, let alone within their sight.
However, they did not feel any discomfort when the other person walked in.
That chilling sensation on the neck that's ingrained in our DNA didn't appear at all!
Then came in, but Aria wasn't wearing her hero's outfit.
She was wearing a long dress decorated with white flowers. Because she was a representative of the orc race and not a hero, she could not wear the hero's clothes that she was used to wearing on this occasion.
The dress wasn't particularly glamorous, but it reflected the simplicity of the orcs, and the white flowers gave it a natural feel.
Her long hair wasn't draped down her back, but instead coiled up behind her head, making the usually carefree Arya appear much more dignified at this moment.
The cat ears twitched occasionally, as if the girl was uncomfortable with her hair being tied up, but her tail was hidden under her skirt.
“Miss Aisha, Arya, you’ve finally arrived.” Lycorina stepped forward happily.
Elsa smiled and nodded: "Yes."
She remembered the care Her Highness had given her.
"Your Highness, it's been a long time!" Arya O happily stepped forward and embraced Lydia 5. Six:|4◇〈
He was all dignified just a moment ago, but the moment he stretched out his hand, that bold and unrestrained feeling came over him again.
An Yi also came up and said in a pretentious manner, "Gentlemen, it's been a long time."
Both of them were stunned.
Elsa: "Ah... um."
Arya: "Ah! Right, right, right! It's been so long since I've seen Annie!!"
They are all people who are not good at lying.
What do you mean, "long time no see"?
I used to see them every day not long ago!
Aria glanced at Miluko, who was hiding in the back and muttering something to herself: "Miss Miluko, you don't need to be so quiet when you greet us."
Oh, by the way, where is Mr. Layton?
"Isn't the Saintess Squad supposed to have four people?"
An Yi: "They ran away."
Lycorina: "They just went out to play! Anyi is talking nonsense with a straight face again!"
"Hahaha~~" Arya laughed happily.
When Elsa heard Anie say that Layton had left, her heart suddenly tightened. She subconsciously wondered why Layton would leave when the Saintess Squad had such a good relationship.
Hearing Lycorina's words, he realized it was a joke, so he forced a smile to hide his embarrassment and pretended that he had also joined in the joke.
Milu muttered from behind, "Ah, Mr. An Yi always likes to make jokes like this. Unlike me, I have no sense of humor at all. You two must be tired after walking for so long. Why don't we sit down and talk? The snacks are delicious and the tea is very fragrant. Hmm, hehehe..."
Because she spoke incredibly fast and very softly, all I could tell was that she was greeting people, and then she gave a sinister laugh. I had no idea what she was saying otherwise.
Everyone's used to it, so it would be better to leave her alone to mutter to herself at this time.
If you approach her and stare into her eyes while you talk to her, she'll probably get scared and hide.
but--
Arya doesn't have that much of a sense of boundaries!
She released Lycorina and immediately went behind to hug Miluko, startling the little girl into stiffening.
"Miss Milu seems to have grown a bit taller?" she said with a smile.
Miluko: "Ah ewqFbth@x$s＃@Gfds——"
Chapter 17: A Surprise for An Yi? (4k)
After all, Milu is still growing, so it's normal for her to grow taller. However, the four members of the Saintess Squad spend every day together, so even if they notice that she is getting taller, they won't say anything.
Not only Miluko, but also Anyi and Lycorina's heights have changed slightly.
There's unlikely to be any rapid growth, but becoming a warrior increases the body's efficiency in absorbing nutrients, which will gradually bring a person to their optimal state in all aspects.
In other words, becoming a hero while one is still able to grow allows one to achieve theoretically the "best" development.
Of course, those that cannot grow will not continue to develop.
Things like muscle mass are no longer useful for improving the body and will not increase.
All you need is a little strength; muscle mass is useless when it comes to attributes.
However, if you have strong muscles before becoming a hero, you can actually gain a higher base strength attribute, and you can get greater benefits by adding the attribute to strength.
But... who could have known they would become a hero in the future, and thus strive to improve their basic attributes?
Perhaps only An Yi could do that.
An Yi didn't train to become overly muscular; excessive muscle mass would actually hinder her agility.
Before becoming a hero, he still has a battle to fight against goblins with his mortal body, so being light on his feet is essential.
"By the way, I heard you guys have been quiet for a while and haven't appeared on any battlefields. What have you been doing during this time?"
After everyone sat down, Lycorina, who had inquired about the two of them beforehand, asked a question.
Arya: "Ah..."
Elsa: "Hmm..."
Their gazes were somewhat unfocused, occasionally drifting to An Yi.
They did remain silent for a while, but that doesn't mean they did nothing during that time.
Because [Nightmare] is training them.
First up is Elsa, the "Hero of Slaughter".
She improves her combat ability by accumulating the number of demons she kills, so Nightmare tries to find demons whose deaths will have no impact on her to kill, thereby increasing her strength.
The mechanism by which Arya becomes stronger is unclear to those within Nightmare.
However, it is known that she can probably increase her strength by killing demons.
Therefore, the Nightmare organization assigned her to rescue different orc slaves, which can be considered as letting her accumulate combat experience.
Their positions within the Nightmare are equivalent to those of the Dream Master, serving as the organization's two sharpest weapons for An Yi.
Both of them were very young and lacked combat experience.
Killing more demons and making them battle-hardened is also something the organization needs to do.
only……
How am I supposed to explain this to Her Highness?!
Lycorina noticed that the two occasionally glanced at An Yi, but she didn't think their hesitation had anything to do with An Yi. 《○〇″…
It seemed as if it was difficult to tell the three what had happened behind the scenes.
However, An Yi mistook their gazes for a distress signal.
An Yi: "I'm afraid they've been resting for a while and are just too embarrassed to say it."
Arya: "Ah, right, right... Hmm?"
Elsa: "Mmm...mmm..."
Feeling embarrassed at being accused of slacking off, both of them looked awkward.
Because they clearly worked very hard!
"It's alright, it's alright. I've heard about it. You've all been very busy, so it's normal to take a break for a while." Lycorina waved her hand with a smile.
To Lycorina, their embarrassed expressions meant that Anyi had seen through their rest! That's why they were so awkward!
"No..." Arya was on the verge of tears.
"I have other things to do," Elsa finally said something sensible.
"Yes, yes, yes! I have other things to do! But I can't tell everyone!" Arya excitedly chimed in.
"Wow? So mysterious?" A thought flashed across Lycorina's eyes, then she suddenly remembered that the two of them had been looking at An Yi just now.
Wait……!
The day before the Holy Hero was born was An'i's birthday!
Lycorina's eyes widened in realization!
Rather than saying I can't tell everyone, it's more accurate to say that I can't tell because An Yi is here!
They must have prepared some kind of surprise for An Yi!
"Okay, I understand!" Lycorina nodded with a smile, as if she completely understood. "Then let's not talk about it for now!"
Annie glanced at Lycorina expressionlessly.
This guy has definitely made a mistake again.
但也无所谓9，无论艾尔4莎和艾8莉娅2被迪化到4了什么3程度3，也不可能被0想到二人在“5魔族组织”里做事。
"Oh right! Your Highness, haven't you been quiet for a long time? You must be on some secret mission, right?" Aria quickly changed the subject.
It wasn't just Arya who thought of this; in fact, certain groups had long had similar speculations.
