Chereads / The Ravager in danmachi / Chapter 14 - 14- Cheater and Hestia

Chapter 14 - 14- Cheater and Hestia

When we finally reached the scene, I saw a Red Minotaur most likely a 'berserker' variation.

It was smaller than the first one I killed but it felt stronger and had a giant single-edge sword.

To the side Riveria was holding a pallum girl that seemed unconscious from blood loss, in the front was Ais watching how Bell battled the Minotaur with a black knife that seemed weak but my instincts were telling me that there was more to it.

[eye of the tiger]

My comprehension ability got 50% better and I was thinking more clearly while watching every movement he made.

And I was shocked, from what I see his movements and strength are getting better by the second! Plus, the white runes on the knife are shining somehow making it stronger too.

'What the hell is this cheaty bullshit?' worst of all it seems to be permanent, not some temporal buff.

'I thought that Karen will the only cheater that I'll ever encounter, but noooo here comes kid and his permanent buff?' and what do I have? I'm supposed to be the ravager reincarnation or something.

Just Mutations.... really funny, most of them are just silly, and the ones that are useful come with extremely unnerving Side effects like [you will become an eldritch creature when you die] yea I'm all for that why not add the vampirism too.

Reaching the climax of the fight Bell struck his knife on the minotaur and yelled.

"FIRE BOLT" the fire traveled through the knife and into the minotaur setting his insides ablaze.

"FIREBOLT, FIREBOLT, FIREBOLT!!!" but he didn't stop the minotaur was leaking flames from the cuts in his body until it inflated and exploded into a gory mess that quickly disappeared in blue and black particles.

When the dust settled there was bell standing while unconscious and the 'god's blessing' could be seen in his exposed back.

Riveria went to inspect him "he is okay but there is something..." she said looking at the tattoo on his back.

'Now that I look at it, I don't understand it at all' which is weird because I could understand everyone and read books the moment I arrived.

"What does it say?" Ais asked

"All his parameters are at 'S' grade" she said and every one was surprised except for me of course.

'This guy just got at least 4 points on every body stat in so little time' witch I can only do if I spend 3 warp per point, such cheat.

As I was thinking how unfair the world is, my racial instincts screamed and I felt a gaze looking directly to my 'soul' though it could see my sins and all that stuff it couldn't go beyond that, like Kala did, Kala could see everything with just a glance.

But even so while Kala's gaze was gently going through my soul and when it reached the center my soul would just let her enter, this individual's gaze was trying to drill through it just to see whats inside.

And it's gaze felt so utterly disgusting, like how those pig nobles saw Ella, before asking her to be their sex slave only to get turned into eunuchs a moment after that.

A few moments later the gaze disappeared leaving me sweating a bit.

'What was that!?' if this entity could just look at me this far down in the dungeon it must be pretty strong and strong people looking for you means problems.

After that small situation, Ais approached me.

"Can you help me take him to the surface?" she asked me.

"Yeah... you carry him though" I already lost interest on going to Rivira.

For the next 15 minutes I was walking besides Ais while killing the monsters that got on our way.

And surprisingly the last monster I killed filled my warp, I was expecting the break notification but what I got was this.

[Warning!]

[Warp levels overloaded... starting break in...]

[Notice due to the unique properties of the Falna system the 'Break' will be held indefinitely until the user's god updates your 'status'.

Be advised that the user can still absorb warp making it go over the top thus causing 'Toxicity' to increase]

I guess I have to ask Hestia to update my status if I want to reach Break 2.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Finally at the surface Ais bought Bell to the medic and I went to inform Hestia the Bell was injured.

When I reached Hephaestus shop, I searched for Hestia which was talking to a customer.

I already knew this was going to be a pain so I aproached her

"Hello Calvin-Kun" I really hate that. I grabbed her arm and dragged her to the elevator.

"gaa! Hey what do you think you are doing? You want to get me fired?" I just activated the elevator and ignored her.

"Bell is injured." I said.

"And what- EH? NO NO NO NO NO NO bell can't be injured he is strong and he... he... *hic*" she screamed then mumbled and the started crying.

That made me feel bad... 'wait what? why would I feel bad for her?' no way... the 'god's blessing' subtly connected me to Hestia? The 'care for each other' connection?

Seeing her sad makes me want to make her happy?

I move my hand to her head and pat her gently making her look at me with glassy

eyes and tears running down her face.

"Don't worry he is okay, just resting" I say making her relax and stop crying.

"thanks" she says while looking down, she got closer to me, which surprised me as it

didn't trigger my 'personal space' or made me uncomfortable.

Out of nowhere she hugged me which felt... nice...? Why? shouldn't feel anything for this woman but this aura that she has makes me remember Karen and Jinnei.

I unconsciously hugged her back while a tear ran down my eye which left me shocked 'what is happening to me? And why can't I let go of her?'

Suddenly her hand touched my face swiping away my tear.

"Sorry... I leaked a bit of my divinity which is Family and I guess that it made you remember your family" she said while looking at me with a motherly tone.

"y-yeah, any ways let's go to the hospital so you can see Bell" I said while letting go of her and exiting the elevator.

"Yes, let's go" she said while following me.

Divinity huh? Some scary shit there if she is just the goddess of family and has this much control over me what could a god with 'death' divinity do? And Hestia being the goddess of family is dangerous, dangerous for my mental health.
