sitting in the garden, just came back from the forge checking Shiro progress and I was really pleased with his work that I decided no to sell it to Hephaestus and keep it for Igris instead the great sword he made and armor set was so strong that it can boast a level 2 to level 6 strength and defense, so I asked him to make another but tone it down a bunch and it looked like me saying this heart his pride as a blacksmith so I asked him to use less rare metals and items but make it with the same proficiency and this made him more accepting and me less worried after all no matter your proficiency every material has its limits. after reaching the garden
I call Gara and sent him to the dungeon in his shadow form to farm crystals that I can sell to the guild until my business with Hephaestus is up and running.
sitting I start thinking about how to approach both Haruhime and Aisha for Aisha it shouldn't be hard after all she is there against her will and if she knows that I am helping Haruhime too she will be more then welcome to join. but Haruhime problem lies elsewhere and fro that a little history lesson is needed about these two.
Haruhime grew up as a dignified young lady of a noble family in the Far East. Living in solitude, her home was like a cage and had no friends. At some point, children of the Takemikazuchi Familia more specifically Yamato Mikoto, with the approval of their God, started taking her outside at night to play with them.
Sometime later, she was framed for eating an offering, which angered her good for nothing father so much that he disowned her and a Pallum guest offered to take her away. As they were traveling, they were attacked by monsters and the trash Pallum ran away, leaving Haruhime behind. She survived, but was later captured by bandits and sold to a brothel in Orario. While heading there, she caught the eye of Ishtar, who bought her. Haruhime became a member of the Ishtar Familia, where she was forced to work as a prostitute later her magic Uchide no Kozuchi is level-boosting magic that can only be used on one target, other than the caster. Its effect can last around 15 minutes if Haruhime puts a lot of mind into it, after which an interval around 10 minutes is required before it can be used again. However, those affected by Uchide no Kozuchi gained less than half the experience a normal adventurer would've gained. and this was when her death sentence was decided by Ister as a sacrifice to boost her familia members level but during the first sacrifice, Aisha who was the vice caption at the time was friends with Haruhime, and consider the ritual of sacrificing her as against her morals destroyed the first killing stone, After saving Haruhime by destroying the first Killing Stone the Ishtar Familia acquired, Ishtar charmed her, making her unable to disobey the Goddess even if the orders conflicted with Aisha's own personal convictions. that's why in the anime she tried her best to get Bell to save her instead.
but Haruhime, unlike Aisha, is a gentle, timid, well-mannered, and extremely kind girl and as time went on, she convinced herself that she wouldn't be saved since she believed that her profession made her unworthy of rescue. and my problem with that is that if you want to be saved then at least you should take the hand that offered you the help, I am here to save you and now you want me to convince you that you deserve to be saved too, I don't tolerate this type of convection.
If you want your life and want others to stand for you because you can't at the moment with your current strength at least have to courage and conviction to stand for yourself first and ask for help and promise to never allow yourself to be in this position again. that is why I will leave convincing her to Aisha I know she will be able to deal with her and she will follow Aisha.
coming out from my thoughts I notice subzero standing behind me in a kneeling position and seeing me look at him he starts to speak.
Subzero: " My lord we have found the targets at the moment they are at the Belit Babili Aisha at the tower ( the familia home is a palace in the shape of 3 towers in the middle of the Belit Babili ) and Haruhime at the brothel "
Sora: " okay then leave Haruhime for now when Aisha leaves the palace to capture her and bring her to me and take this it's a magic rune that will put her to sleep so that you can bring her quietly and take Hanzo with you she may be weaker than any of you but being an Amazoness she won't come quietly and I don't a scene at the familia "
Subzero: "By your command my lord " and he vanishes some may ask why not just go to meet her actually I don't know why but since I got the shadow Emporer job and followed by the awakening of my bloodline and memories I started to carry this feeling of supremacy over others not that underestimate them or look down on them like they are unworthy but the idea of me going myself is like it's hearting my pride of who I am and what my position among the world is. I hope this doesn't become a problem.
