With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Flora immediately raised her hand and released her own green magic power as she said, “Please forgive us, my little sister didn’t mean it.”

Though she was apologizing, she was also making sure to show off her own power so that he wouldn’t attack.

Lin Fan could see with his Appraisal Eyes that she was only a mid level intermediate mage, so if they really fought, he would still win. But he didn’t want to fight with them if he didn’t have to, so he pulled back his aura and said, “We don’t appreciate this kind of joke around here.”

The younger elf fell back onto the sofa that she had been sitting on and let out a sigh of relief.

She had always looked down on this man before since he looked like a weakling and never gave her a sense of danger, but now it turned out that she had underestimated him.

The first time that they had met, she had felt that he was weaker than her.

This second time that they had met, she hadn’t felt anything from him.

She had thought that he was still as weak as before, but it turned out that he wasn’t…

She was just too weak to sense his real power.

Just how had he grown by this much in this short period of time?

After releasing his aura, Lin Fan said, “I think it’s time for the two of you to leave. If you don’t, then I will have to get the city guards involved and once they are involved, you will be banned from this city.”

At this, both Flora and the younger elf revealed looks of panic.

They never thought that Lin Fan would be this decisive in this matter…they thought that it would all work out in the end, but now it was even worse than before.

Since there was nothing left for her to say, Flora just gave up trying to think of a reason and…she begged.

She fell onto the table in front of her and grabbed Lin Fan’s legs.

When she did this, he was caught off guard, so he wasn’t able to stop her from doing this.

The younger elf was also shocked seeing this, but she didn’t stop Flora since she knew that this was their final choice. But to bow down to Lin Fan who she thought of as inferior to herself…it really was hard for her.

However, seeing Flora do this in the end, she sucked it up and fell onto the table as well to grab Lin Fan’s legs.

Flora looked up at Lin Fan and said, “I know that this is putting you in a hard position, but we really need to enter the dungeon one way or another. I don’t know if there’s anything you can do, but I hope that you will do it on account of our past relationship.”

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes to look at her when she said this, looking at her with a very confused look.

Just what was so important that she would go this far?

After a moment of silence, the younger elf also said with an unwilling look, “Please help us.”

Lin Fan looked at the two of them with a very confused and strange look for a while before finally saying, “Just tell me what you’re really after and I can help you. That is my bottom line.”

Both of the elves revealed looks of difficulty when they heard this, as if this was something that they were very unwilling to do.

But seeing the firm look on Lin Fan’s eyes, they realized that they had no choice.

So with a sigh, Flora said, “If I tell you, will you keep it a secret?”

Lin Fan revealed a serious look and said with a nod, “I will.”

Flora still hesitated a bit, but in the end, she slowly said, “We’re…we’re looking for traces of our goddess. We found some traces of our goddess in this dungeon and we want to investigate.”

“Goddess?” Lin Fan couldn’t help repeating before asking, “Which goddess are you talking about?”

Flora’s eyes suddenly filled with worship before she said, “Aphrodite, the great goddess of nature.”

Lin Fan couldn’t help doing a spit take when he heard this.

Aphrodite?

Aphrodite was the goddess of nature?

As far as he could remember, she was supposed to be the goddess of love and not nature.

So he couldn’t help asking, “Are you sure you don’t mean someone else? Shouldn’t Aphrodite be the goddess of love and not nature?”

As far as he could remember, according to Greek mythology, Demeter should be the goddess of nature and not Aphrodite.

Both Flora and the younger elf looked at me with a confused look when they heard this.

Then Flora slowly said, “Our great goddess Aphrodite is indeed the goddess of love, but that also makes her the goddess of nature.”

When he heard this, he couldn’t help being even more confused because no matter how he looked at it, those two things didn’t seem like they were connected.

Seeing the confused look on my face, Flora explained, “Love is the basic form of nature. After all, without men, there are no women and without women, there are no men. Love is what drives the reproduction of a race, so there can’t be anything more natural than that.”

Lin Fan’s chin dropped when he heard this.

It was almost as if she was speaking in a different language when she explained this.

Although he was able to understand the words that she said, it wasn’t as if he could understand their meaning.

It was almost as if…she was saying some kind of alien language.

Still, Lin Fan didn’t allow himself to be stuck on this for too long.

He knitted his brows in a thoughtful manner which gave both Flora and the younger elf hope.

What he was actually thinking about was how the dungeon core was actually something that had formed from the remnant power of Aphrodite, so that was why they were able to sense her power coming from it.

He also knew that if he didn’t allow them to explore the dungeon, they would come back with more elves one day and they might even sneak into the dungeon.

That was just how crazy devoted faithfuls could be…or at least that was what he had heard back on Earth. He had seen plenty of those crazy cultists who would even burn themselves alive for their cults, so he didn’t doubt what these two elves would be capable of.

So instead of sending them away…it would be better to put them under some kind of supervision.

It would be even easier if they did go into the dungeon since Rokuko could keep watch over them 24/7 as long as they were in the dungeon. That was one of the powers that she had as the dungeon core.

After thinking about it, Lin Fan suddenly gave a sigh and said, “It isn’t as if there isn’t a way for you to go in.”

When they heard this, both Flora and the younger elf’s eyes lit up.

Flora quickly nodded and said, “Yes, yes, as long as you let us into the dungeon, we can do anything.”

But then, she quickly realized that her words were a bit inappropriate, so she changed them by saying, “Well, not anything. We’ll do anything that is reasonable.”

The younger elf nodded in agreement to this.

Lin Fan just calmly said, “The problem with letting you in is that you have no identification, so there’s no way of ensuring that you are safe to trust. So all we have to do is solve that problem.”

Both Flora and the younger elf revealed confused looks when they heard this before Flora asked, “How are you going to do that?”

“It’s very simple, we’ll get you some identification.” Lin Fan said with a smile.

Both Flora and the younger elf were even more confused when they heard this.

But Lin Fan didn’t care as he suddenly pinched both of their arms, forcing them to let go. After that, he waved his hand and said, “Follow me.”

Both Flora and the younger elf still had confused looks on their faces, but they did follow Lin Fan.

Lin Fan led them out of the city hall and brought them to a building that was nearby.

This was the building that had been given to the Mercenary Guild.

When he walked in, he was hit with a loud wave of sound.

This was the sound that came from all of the mercenaries who were sitting inside.

These mercenaries were either drinking and having fun or at the mission board picking missions out.

Since the dungeon had shown how profitable it could be, there were many mercenaries who had been pulled to this town. But seeing all of them here, Lin Fan couldn’t help being surprised since he never expected this many of them.

Still, he walked right past the mercenaries in this building and headed to the counter.

As he walked through, he started attracting more and more attention…after all, Tian Tian had done the same as Yue Lan and made sure that everyone recognized his face.

When he arrived at the counter, he said to the receptionist, “Can I please talk to your president?”

The receptionist immediately gave a nod and ran off to find Tian Tian.

After all, Tian Tian had already given them the order that as long as it was Lin Fan looking for her, they should always come and tell her.

It didn’t take long before Tian Tian came out to greet him, but she didn’t act affectionate as she normally would.

She brought him into the office and only then did she reveal a smile, but she didn’t jump into his arms like usual because Flora and the younger elf were here.𝒩𝔬𝑽𝗅xt.𝑪𝐎𝗆

Finally Tian Tian asked, “What are you here for?”

There was no formality in her voice at all, but there really didn’t need to be any formality  between them.

Since Lin Fan was willing to bring these two cloaked figures to see her, it was clear that they were people that he trusted. Since they were people that he trusted, then they would be people that she trusted as well.

For these people, there is no need for any pretenses.

Lin Fan gave a nod to Flora and the younger elf before saying, “You can take off your hoods.”

Both Flora and the younger elf were surprised by this, but after a moment of hesitation, they still took them off.

When Tian Tian saw their appearance, she couldn’t help being taken aback before slightly knitting her brows and saying, “This isn’t that simple, is it?”

Lin Fan just said with a faint smile, “It’s actually very simple. I just want to register them as mercenaries.”
