Chereads / Danmachi: Demigod / Chapter 17 - Settled Hestia

Chapter 17 - Settled Hestia

As Akira woke up he turned to the side to see Ryuu's sleeping face he smiled and kissed her cheek before getting up to do his rituals after that he started making breakfast for everyone as he just finished putting everything on the table a sleepy Ryuu came in and kissed him before she sat down and asked

Ryuu: When are you going to ask the girls to join Hestia familia?

Akira: I'll probably go today with them and then I'll head to Twighlight manor to spar with Ais I'm still a bit dumbfounded how Leyfia is managing to teach Bell how to use a dagger

Ryuu chuckled she can't see it being much help either

Ryuu: maybe you should go teach him?

Akira: he won't get as much increase with me to be fair he is still learning fast some people of Artemis familia help with that I think he just uses the excuse to be near Leyfia

Ryuu: Loki familia just got back from their expedition right I heard it failed?

Akira: they got to the 59th floor I hear but suffered pretty bad injuries due to the enemy I'm going over to find what that's about because I've been way past that floor and can't imagine a monster that would push them that much

Akira knew exactly what happened but he still needs to act like he doesn't know it was definitely that Demi spirit that shook them down I'm actually surprised that it wasn't there when I go it must have been put there for the Loki familia

Akira hasn't been idle all this time he has been keeping an eye on all evilus actions and has seen that sneaky Dionysus planning everything behind everyone's back he's baffled others don't realise it's him he honestly is good but not good enough to fool people like Loki

Anyways he'll just help reduce the damages when everything plays out today he has plans

As he thought this Lili, Aisha and Haruhime walked down

Girls: Morning

Akira: Good morning today is the day you'll all go to Hestia familia Lili too I think should go I will have to man the shop until I can find someone else it's not busy anyways

The girls got super excited hearing this I've told them all about Hestia and Bell and they have seen them around and even Haruhime is a lot more confident after being told she wasn't really a prostitute they are all fired up to start leveling up

Akira: alright I'm going to meet Hestia and Bell I'll come get you when I've put them in the manor

The girls agreed so I bid farewell and headed over to Hestia as I was doing this the girls had a little conversation back at the house

Lili: I think Ryuu should help Akira in his shop and leave the hostess I feel bad to stop helping him after everything he's done for me

Ryuu: I've been thinking this myself to be honest I would like to spend more time here I also have enough to pay my debt to mama Mia and she's told me I can go now with him

Haruhime: I need to get stronger to be able to help more I have no experience before being trained by Ryuu and Akira and I'm still level one

Haruhime's ears dropped as she spoke this but the girls cheered her on

Aisha: we can go help him when we don't have many duties with the familia it's not a long way away anyway

The girls agreed to this as Ryuu blurted out

Ryuu: That idiot needs to go accept Hephaestus,Rose and Ais

The girls once again agreed to this and sighed they feel this guy is extremely kind and loyal but he's also quite dense in these situations he can just accept them and be done with it

Ryuu: sigh I keep telling him it's fine especially now that him and I are eternally young…

Back to Akira he just knocked on the door of the abandoned house Hestia familia has been occupying and waited a bit until the door opened to reveal a wide eyed Bell gaping like a fish

Bell: Ah.. umm.. how can I help you sir?

Bell was stuttering as he knows this guy is the strongest and possibly richest man in the city and he's baffled he's just knocking on his door

Akira: I need to see Hestia is that fine?

Hestia: My Bell!!! Who is it?!

As Hestia came to the door she saw Akira and immediately invited him inside bell didn't know that they knew each other but just rolled with it anyways

Akira: Hestia I came to ask you about if you would like to move into my district in the spare manor until you can pay it off aswell as accepting 3 new members?

Hestia: really? Why us though?

Hestia is a bit suspicious of this guy but he also helped her get her Bell so she wants to believe him

Akira: To be honest I only allow good people to live in the area and you guys are really nice people that's literally all there is to it I know it sounds weird but that's the truth

Bell at the side had sparkles on his eyes if they could get a better house he could sleep on a proper bed and if they get more members he can get further into the dungeon

Hestia seeing Bell all excited just let out a sigh and agreed she might go in debt but the contract he gave for the loan is good there isn't anything weird in it and she used her divine eye on it to make sure plus this guy is Hephis crush she doubts he's a bad person

Hestia: Okay where is it? Bell pack you're stuff we'll move in now

Bell sprinted away making a mini dust cloud and Akira just looked at it with a funny face he still can't get over how sometimes there's anime logic in this world it makes no sense there was even that time I saw Eina push her glasses up and they had that weird flash of light I'm almost positive she was planning something that time..

Anyways as they made it to the manor Akira said to settle and he'd be back with their new members and went back home for the girls

A while later he returned with them and told them to go introduce themselves because he has to go they all gave him a hug with Aisha's hand being a tad too adventurous and he was on his way they can settle everything by themselves he doesn't need to be there

So Akira headed over to the twighlight manor as he did he was happy to go see Ais again he knows he wasn't interested before but that's just because he wanted to keep Bells skill now he doesn't need to bother trying he has Leyfia even though Leyfia is obsessed with Ais he thinks she'll take the hint eventually…
