Just like how Primis full description was decreased to "someone with Black coat, Heavenly Handsome face and blood red-eyes with 3-tomoes in them."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Freya was still looking at her artifact even after Primis disappeared. Ottar and Allen were also the same. Though, they all had a grave expression on their face.
Freya: Evilus. Huh.
Ottar countenance changed slightly as he remembered that period. To be more precise, one specific person he respected a lot. The image of that person appeared in his head. The person had dark brown hair, gray eyes, and scars on his face. He wore a full body black armor along with a dark red cape. In addition to that, he also put on a helmet when he and Ottar fought.
'Ottar: Zald.'
Zald was the former member of Zeus Familia and the one who sided with Evilus during Dark Period. He was also the one Ottar defeated and reached Level 7. But Ottar was not proud of it because when Zald defeated Behemoth by eating its meat, he ended up being poisoned with Behemoth deadly venom, which continued to weaken him for the rest of his life. As a result, Zald had to retire as an adventurer after that battle because of it. Hence, when Ottar fought him, Zald had already been weakened greatly.
In other words, Ottar defeated weak Zald. Otherwise, it had been impossible. Why? Because according to the plot Zald alongside with Alfia, were the most powerful people in the entire Danmachi world after the Sword Champion, Albert Waldstein. Unbeknownst to Ottar, he will be facing that very Behemoth soon.
Freya: Allen, go to Folkvangr and inform other Familia members to be on high alert for the next few months. Evilus won't let the opportunity to strike us go when our guard is down.
Allen: Yes, Lady Freya.
Allen then hurriedly left. Freya then lean back and looked out from the window. Since she lives on the top floor of the babel, she was currently looking at the actions of Adventurers. Now when Evilus was in the move again.
Freya: What do you think?
Ottar: Lady Freya, for the last few days my instincts are warning me about something. This also happened just when Dark Period. But......
Freya: But?
Ottar: This time at every passing day, it kept on increasing. I am having a feeling that this upcoming danger will be at a whole different scale compared to Dark Period.
Freya expression even more grave hearing this. She kept on looking down from the glass window before her seductive smile returned.
'Freya: No matter what danger come, Orario will prevail like it always had. And especially now when he is here. He won't let the people he cares about die.'
Freya then poured wine for herself in a wine glass. Her eyes then darted at the red wine in the glass while thinking about her next course of action.

At this time, one of the Adventurer who was looking at Primis from hiding also reached his Familia. He took a sigh of relief looking at it. Why? Because currently only his Familia appeared to be safest place for him. In front of him is a giant statue of man with Elephant head. And the entrance located at its crotch. The name of the residence is "I am Ganesha".
Yes. This is the largest of all the Familia of Orario, Ganesha Familia. And they also have the most first-class adventurers with a total of eleven Level 5 Adventurers. In Ganesha Familia there are many skilled tamers that participate in the Monster Feria which is held every year. Monsters from the dungeon are considered to be hard to tame though the Ganesha Familia tamers have been known to be able to tame them.
There is very big reason why Ganesha Familia held Monster Feria every year. And that is, Ganesha the head of the Ganesha Familia is one of the few people that know about the existence of Xenos. Hence, He works with Ouranos to get the people used to the monsters by holding Monster Feria each year.
The person hurriedly entered the residence. When almost all the Adventurers rushed at Guild Headquarters to confront Primis, some Familia decided to first look at how the situation folds before joining later. Like how main members of Freya Familia didn't join at the beginning. Same's the case for Ganesha and some others Familia.
He passed by many rooms while hurrying over. When he reached the door of the main room, he stopped and looked at the person in front. The person has scarlet crimson hair and brown eyes. She was wearing revealing clothing and golden hoop earrings. She is vice-captain of the Ganesha Familia and an Amazoness, Ilta Farna. Ilta nodded at the person before turning around and knocking the door.
KNOCK!!
KNOCK!!
KNOCK!!
???: Come in.
Once they heard the confirming voice, they opened the door and entered.
CREAK!!
Inside their gaze first fell on the one that told them to enter. She was a beautiful woman which had beautiful azure hair woman and eyes. She was wearing orange color clothes which had some golden straps. Down she was wearing black leggings with silver metal shoes. Her hands were also covered with metal hand guards. On her face there's a strict and collected look. She is the captain of the Ganesha Familia and a Human, Shakti Varma.
Shakti: Explain the situation.
The person nodded before he started recalling what he heard and witnessed. At first, Shakti was still calm but then as time passed by her expressions kept on changing. First, her eyes went wide when she heard how Primis killed a God in front of the Guild. Then it turned to shocked when she heard how he single-handed fought against the entire Orario Adventurers with ease.
Hearing that both Shakti and Ilta shivered. They both were also planning on joining other Adventurers to fight against Primis but now they realized it would haven't changed the situation much. If it was battle of attrition then they might have chance but according to the person, Primis didn't sweat a bit even when he beat down more than half of the Adventurers. Next, when the name of Evilus came.
BOOM!!!
Shakti released her entire aura. This pressure sacred the person as he hurriedly took few steps back. Ilta also had a serious expression on her face, but she didn't release her pressure like Shakti. After few seconds, Shakti took back her aura. However, she no longer had her cool, strict, and collected look which she showed even in a hectic and chaotic situation.
Her eyes were filled with rage. Shakti hated Evilus the most. Not because they were responsible for Dark Period. No, it was also one of the reasons. But the most important reason was because they were responsible for her younger sister death during Dark Period. She then told the person to continue. Once the person told the last thing, Shakti gave him his leave.
CREAK!!!
BANG!!!
The person then hurriedly left. Shakti returned to her calm look before taking a seat.
Ilta: Shakti----
Shakti: I want some time alone Ilta.
Ilta: ......…
Ilta became silent for some time before nodding her head. Then she also left.
CREAK!!!
BANG!!!
Once the door was closed, Shakti leaned back at her seat. After some time, she put one of her hands in her pocket and took out a picture. In the picture, there were two people. One person has a calm and cool look while another person was showing a cheerful smile. The person with calm and cool look was obviously Shakti herself. The other person was her younger sister.
That person had short slate blue hair and cerulean eyes. She wore a pure blue top over a kind of short dress that was black in the center and dark gray on the sides of it, as well as a pair of black gloves that reached above the elbow. She wore two light blue straps around her waist and a smaller one with which she held a piece of pure blue piece of cloth that she carried on her side. She also wore a pair of metal and leather shoes, with the right one reaching higher than the other, and a pair of black stockings that reached above the knee.
She was very identical to Shakti herself. But her personality is completely opposite of Shakti. Seeing her tears started to appear at the corner of Shakti eyes.
Shakti: Ardi.

Returning to Guild Headquarters.
From the top floor of the Guild Headquarters, someone from his window was looking down at all the Adventurers that had formed a party and went towards the dungeon and those who were showing horror expressions while planning to leave Orario. Seeing this he gave them disdained look.
He was a fat Elf with white hair, green eyes, and short legs. His fat also makes his height seem small. He was wearing a black suit that is of much better quality than any other Guild worker. He is the head of the Guild under Ouranos, Royman Mardeel.
Royman is an arrogant Elf that constantly looks down on others except for the Gods and Goddesses. He likes money, causing him to be known as the Guild's Pig by other Elves. Royman also dislikes Half Elves, believing that they are low class. However, even with so many short coming, he is still a hard worker. Otherwise, Ouranos won't have let him manage the Guild for so long.
Royman: Orario has gave them so much. Yet now when danger is approaching Orario, they just turned their back on it and decided to run away. How Pathetic. How ridiculous.
???: You don't say.
Royman hair stood on the end as he hurriedly turned around. There he saw someone sitting on his chair while looking at him. And that's someone he didn't want to meet. So, he tensed up. He then gulped before trying to calm himself.
Royman: I-I wonder what I can do for "The Black Swordsman".
Primis didn't reply. He just kept on looking at Royman with indifferent expression. The room became silent. As time went by, sweat started to appear on Royman forehead. As said before, Royaman is someone who looked down on every except God and Goddess. However, in front of Primis he had put away his arrogance.
Primis is someone who killed a God. Not only in front of public but also in front of the very Guild Headquarters. Means in front of Ouranos himself. Yet, Ouranos didn't make any move i.e., using his divinity to stop Primis. Instead, he remained silent. This was enough for him to understand that if Primis wished to kill him then Ouranos will put a blind eye on t. Because he is nothing compared to God. Seeing him sweating so much, Primis finally decided to open his mouth.
Primis: Go and tell Ouranos that I want to meet him. Right now.
Royman: Y-Yes. I go. I go.
Then Royman hurriedly left the room as if running away.
