Gods cannot use their Arcanum in the Genkai per the rule set for them or else they would be sent back to Tenkai for breaking it unless they have permission to use it.
There are some explanations for this rule like how they descended to have some entertainment and using their power would only defeat the purpose of enjoying the mortal world.
However, the most glaring reason for this is to avoid the acceleration of the Promised Time as their Arcanum only agitated the dungeon.
That's why Ouranos is constantly watching over the gods and dungeon, praying on something below the depths of it, no one knows what it was but surely it is the cause for the birth of the unending monsters.
Some gods know what it was and set the goal of clearing the dungeon to give humans the better life they deserved.
"That's why we need him as the current Hero of this generation to clear the dungeon"
Hephaestus clearly stated with both of her eyes full of resolution, Freya and Loki are staring at the red-haired goddess wondering how and when since she has been healed of her curse.
"So you called us here to support him to conquer the dungeon? Do you know how much would we have to sacrifice to reach the 50th floor? We don't even know where the One-Eyed Black Dragon is."
Loki vehemently opposed Hephaestus as she know that if they challenge the dungeon then it means that the humans are already ready for the Promised time and an all-out war against the adventurers and monsters.
Even as their god and goddess they couldn't help them or else they would be sent back to heaven.
"We don't even know if he has enough strength and will to do it as it means that he has to spearhead the attack against an ending horde of enemies!"
Hephaestus clearly understands what Loki means however she wants the world to be better before her child would be born, and she had enough confidence that David can do it.
"Arent you too negative on this Loki? Both the strongest Familia is here, even Hephaestus and Goibniu voiced their approval and the only thing that is left is Ouranus agreement and all the gods after that, or are you like those few who don't want humans to stop relying on us after they clear the dungeon?"
Freya coldly stated with sharp eyes, she knows that there are some goods and goddesses who fear that their time of ruling humans would end that's why they rather indulge in a hedonistic lifestyle, than help diving into the dungeon.
"You know that if we commence this plan then there would be no turning back, I just want to make sure we are all prepared because even if I have come to love this world."
Loki grabs her plate which is silently eyed by Hestia beside her, she was extremely amazed by the taste of the food here, it is similar to how Soma wine tastes without the adverse effects.
"And I still think my Ais is better than him, even without talking about her potential."
"If you're talking about potential then my Bell is better than your Ais! He reached level two in just a month!"
"Tsk! I don't care! And stop stealing my food, I thought you were the waitress here then why are you in this place!"
"Because the store is already close, and you're no boss to me!"
Hestia in her official maid uniform tried to reason with Loki, even though she is slightly embarrassed by her work, as a goddess with a Familia she has to at least help her Bell in any way.
Loki notices her discomfort and just lets the matter go, even if they're bickering all the time she still likes Hestia more than most gods.
"Anyway even if you have my support if we don't have enough preparation then it would surely fail, and I don't think David is strong enough for the task."
"We won't haste the Promise Time as there would still be enough time for him to reach Level 7 or 8 and your worries about his strength are already unfounded as even when at level 4 he already defeated Ottar at full power."
Loki slammed the table in frustration, even if both Hephaestus and Freya fall over heels for some mortals, the thought of sacrificing so many lives just for a single man caused her great frustration, they even lied to her to make her agree.
"Stop making fun of me Freya because it would only displease me and oppose your plan, forget about him jumping levels you even lied about him defeating the strongest adventurer with 3 level difference!"
"As a goddess of trickery, do you think that I'm lying to you Loki? There are more surprising things that he has other than what you heard and truthfully, the real reason for this meeting is not about the Promise Time but Hephaestus here."
Loki glanced at Hephaestus, who was silent for some time, she had noticed some change from her since she saw her in Denatus earlier, however she couldn't pinpoint what it was.
'Wait why does her hair seem longer than usual?'
Loki's eyes enlarged when she saw the changes in Hephaestus's body, as a god of lies and deception, her mind is extremely sharp even to the most minuscule aspects.
However, the truth is sometimes more unbelievable than fiction in the most extreme cases.
"Yes Loki I am bearing a child and I want your help to hide it, I know that your innate ability can do it without using your Arcanum and alerting Ouranus that's why I need your help."
"Ha..Ha..HaHaHaahaha!"
While laughing outrageously Loki grasps her face with her head tilted and rested on the soft chair she is sitting on, even as a joke, this is beyond what she can take.
God descended to Genkai to entertain themselves but if this news would be known, even another war between gods is not impossible, leaving the treat of the dungeon as a farce.
Having their own fresh and blood is one of their dreams as it is the main reason why they started creating Familia is to experience to have their own family.
Hestia was very happy for her friend, remembering all the hardship to prove herself to others finally bear fruit with true love and happiness.
"Congratulations Hephaestus, as a goddess of the family, I know that you would be a good mother, I just hope that you would help me bear a child too."
Pouting, she remembered that Hephaestus strongly disagreed to help her in that matter as she was not ready for something that she could not understand.
"Is that so Hestia then my condition of assisting you would him helping me bear a child too, I don't know how did you manage it, but it seems he is the reason for this, am I right Hephaestus.
Shaking her head, Hephaestus can only disagree, as becoming one with him is accepting each other to everything, even his memories are accessible to her, knowing that them even as a god is nothing but a story of fiction would be a huge blow for all of them.
Additionally, it would also create a strong connection with them, similar to how Hephaestus's undying love for David.
"As I said, Hestia, I won't allow it if you don't have any feelings for him, and you also can't be with him Loki as he never likes someone who is no longer pure."
"What? How about Freya here! She already tasted all the delicacy this world and heaven can offer, don't tell me she used her charm on him, is that it?"
"No, I have specifically requested someone to use the spring of Canathus in one way or another to restore my purity, I just hope that you can also find it Loki."
Smiling, she teased the squinted goddess in front of her, after all their difficulty with each other, it seemed they would have something in common in the end.

-----
For those who are confused, a month passed after Ishtar and Allen's attack that's why already reached level 4.
The reason for this is because of the eight gates and evolution, the eight gates push his body more than what it can handle enhancing everything even magic because it is considered magic in his status.
And evolution changes and adjusts his body to accept the power the eight gates bring, even forces for his being to evolve to something higher for it.
Imagine a balloon being pumped by air to its maximum but instead of popping his skill evolution changes the property of the balloon to accept more air.
