Chapter 251: Size Doesn't Matter?

(Loki POV)
Loki peered at the walls clouded in dim green light. The chilling roars echoing around told her where she was.
The dungeon.
Asahi could teleport inside the dungeon, a place where the floors seemed to be isolated from one another.
'No Arcanum.'
Like other gods, she couldn't use her Arcanum because of a promise between Ouranos and the dungeon. She had to obey the old man or he'd kick her back to Heaven, the place boring enough to turn a healthy man senile.
"Sixth floor," her dear Aissu said.
"Yeah," Asahi said and grinned at Loki. "How long do you plan to hold my hands?"
Loki forgot she was still holding his hands!
She pulled back her hand and pointed behind. Numerous footsteps rushed at them.
"Aissu, show me some fight!"
Ais glanced up at Asahi as though asking for his permission. The goddess squinted. As her goddess and boss, Ais should ask her permission, not his!
Asahi rubbed Ais's head. The blonde loli leaned to his side to feel his pats with a smile. The only time Loki had seen Ais smiling was with Riveria or Ais's new elf friend Lefiya... or the odd time when she slayed some monsters outside Orario.
"Go ahead. Test your new armor."
Ais nodded, showing a tad reluctance to leave Asahi. Loki clicked her tongue.
'They only met three or four times at most. Then why is Ais so close to him? Is he using mind magic on my little girl?'
Ais's eyes had some emotions unlike the victims of mind magic. Loki couldn't wrap her head around this, so she concluded the only fact: Asahi's hands were dangerous for any woman.
Loki turned around and saw three dark figures emerging from the corridor. A monster with three sharp claws that seemed sharper than knives. A shiver ran through her spine. She had always seen monsters from afar in the Monster Feria or around the monster tamers. The War Shadow coming right at her felt unnerving.
"Aissu, it's comin'!"
Asahi stopped his pats, and Ais charged. The monsters fell before Loki's eyes, sliced into multiple pieces.
'No denyin' Aissu is that woman's child.'
More monsters came. This time the Frog Shooter, the monster famous for lashing out with its long, repulsive tongue. No matter how many came, Ais's longsword slashed down every one of them.
They crossed the 7th floor before she knew it and arrived in a squared space. The cracking walls rang the arrival of new spawns. A giant red ant with two four legs and two arms ending in sharp claws. Hoisting its body up, it easily reached Asahi's height. It was a killer ant, the newbie killer because of its hard shell that seemed almost impenetrable for new adventurers and the sharpness and strength in its claws.
The ant snapped its mandible together, looking ever so ready to chew down its prey. Loki stopped Ais from charging.
"Stop, Aissu. Let him do somethin'."
Loki wanted to see the prowess of the demigod from another world. Ottar wasn't confident in diving deeper than the 59th floor because of the corrupted spirits, but Mr. Demigod said they could handle anything the dungeon threw at them.
"Alright."
"Where is yer weapon?"
Asahi winked mischievously. "My weapon is too dangerous for them."
Before Loki found a suitable retort, Asahi vanished and arrived before the monster. He swung his fist, and a loud boom resounded. The quick strike tossed the killer ant. Blood oozed out of the ant's completely cracked shell before it disintegrated into ashes. Asahi made quick work of the rest.
The killer ants known for their defense got trashed with normal punches.
Asahi turned around and grinned. His bloodied face reminded Loki of Ais when she first hunted a monster. The girl had smiled on her first kill instead of showing any disgust.
"Wanna test me more?"
Cold sweat dripped down Loki's cheeks. She clapped her hands. "N-Nah. I'm good."
Ais sheathed her sword and tugged at Asahi's shirt. "Onii-san… what is your level?"
'Like level matters to this guy.'
Loki waited for Asahi's answer, hiding her grin. Any answer will paint him as a liar in Ais's eyes.
"I'm level 2."
Ais nodded, seemingly satisfied with the answer. Loki stared at the duo's back as they traveled deeper into the dungeon.
Floors after floors, they descended.
"Are you tired? You can hop on my back if you want?"
Loki shook her head at Asahi's offer. Frolicking around Orario every day had built up her decent physical strength. She glanced down. Unlike most goddesses, she didn't have to deal with back pain for carrying extra weight on their chest.
As though reading her delusional thoughts, Asahi smirked. "Size doesn't matter."
"Why—"
"Heart matters more."
"Size?" Ais asked with an innocent tilt of her head. "What size?"
Loki glared at Asahi for bringing it up before the innocent little Ais. She kneaded Ais's shoulders before running her fingers through her blonde hair.
"It's nothin', Aissu."
Ais just nodded her head, seemingly confused.
