When she got going like this, Dahlia reminded Varanense way too much of a young child who was eager to show off what they learned, and it was certainly quite charming. It also made the ranger wonder if he was growing old now, having such thoughts. That was a bit troubling. He sat himself down as she motormouthed away, propping his head up with his arm while listening to as much of it as he could. Nemesis getting involved in god politics was certainly a weird one, while the question about potential…Varanense certainly wasn’t aware of any insanely unique skill he had that let him level up at astounding rates. Curious stuff. He glanced at cat-girl, Kori, if he recalled correctly. Definitely looked like she wasn’t impressed by skull-face’s casual moves. Was he from the country? Couldn’t have been the first time he’s seen a beastman, could it? Well, at least he won’t be throwing up on his shoes anytime soon. Long-arms though, what a shame. A hero that can’t hold a drink is only acceptable when you’re a cute-as-a-button fourteen year old brave. As a precaution, Varanense scooted himself away from him, right as Odin silenced Dahlia’s background noise with his own arrival, throwing in more words before zipping off afterwards. Don’t worry about the price of anything, huh… Well, what’s free was usually the most expensive, and Varanense still couldn’t wrap his head around why anyone here would have been selected. Was this just Odin subtly hitting on their goddesses? Weird stuff. He probably shouldn’t read too deeply into it. Leaning back in his chair, the dark-skinned youth directed his gaze towards Dahlia again, a lop-sided grin surfacing. [b]“So, that’s Odin, huh? What’s even the discount for? Thought it was standard for the parents to give things to their children, free of charge?”[/b]
