Chapter 5 - Dwarf Hestia And Flat Loki

"Do you want to update the ability value? It's a little difficult to choose... its just my first dungeon dive which is a little too fast, and it will definitely just be a few improvements."

After thinking about it some times, Akira didn't hesitate any longer, went straight towards the room of Goddess Hephaestus by virtue of his memory.

...

When he came to the door, he raised his hand and was about to knock on the door, but was interrupted by the voice coming from inside.

"Hestia, how long are you going to be lazy?!!!"

A loud voice came from the room, and Akira's hand froze in mid-air.

Hestia?

If he heard correctly, it seemed to be the voice of Goddess Hephaestus just now, so the Hestia in the other party's mouth should be the goddess Lolita in his impression, right?

Is the other party still living in the Hephaestus familia and hasn't been kicked out by Goddess Hephaestus?

Orario current time should be between 6 to 3 months before the plot if he remember the day hestia descend!

Boom boom boom! ! !

After waiting for a bit, Akira gently knocked on the door.

The voice inside also stopped abruptly, and after about a moment of silence, the voice of Goddess Hephaestus sounded again: "The door is unlocked, come in!"

Hearing this, Akira reached out and unscrewed the handle, and walked in.

Same as the last time I came here, Goddess Hephaestus sat at the bed with a gloomy face, and it was obvious that she was not in a good mood.

Opposite her, a petite figure in a long white dress was sitting there.

The holy aura similar to Goddess Hephaestus, the childlike face, and the long twin tails behind the head, all the elements that can attract the attention of men are gathered together.

It has to be said that female gods are always so beautiful that it is even hard for humans to resist.

"Master Hephaestus, I'm here to update the ability value, I don't know if it's convenient."

Looking away from Hestia, Akira looked at Hephaestus and explained his purpose of coming.

"Of course there is no problem. In addition, let me introduce you first. This is my god friend, Hestia, who is currently living in our family. Hestia, this is a newcomer who just joined the family today."

"Huh?! Hephaestus, have you found a new child again? It's so enviable!"

Hestia on the side was extremely excited when she heard this, and she looked at Akira with envy and longing. She has not established a family at all now!

After all, probably no one wants to join a newly formed family.

"So I've said it all, you should go out more every day, maybe you can find the child you like, and build your own family. It's not good to stay with me every day and be a rice bug!"

Hephaestus thought that these words could arouse Hestia's fighting spirit, but unfortunately, she still underestimated the laziness of her god friend.

"No, that would be too troublesome. How about this, Hephaestus, why don't you give me this child, so that I can establish a family?"

"This is the only thing that won't work, find it yourself!"

It was rare to see Hephaestus showing such an expression.

Seeing this, Hestia, who was thinking of taking a shortcut before, naturally didn't dare to continue the topic, but she also turned her head and puffed her cheeks, and kept muttering words like "Hephaestus is too stingy".

This kind of quarrel like a child also made Akira a little bit dumbfounded.

"Forget it, Akira, come and lie down, I'll help you update your ability value."

Akira nodded quickly, and was about to take off his clothes, but Hephaestus held his hands down, and looked at Hestia beside him.

"Hestia, I'm going to update my ability value."

"Hmph, I see, what is there to show off, sooner or later, I will be able to find the child I like, train him to be the most powerful adventurer, and then become the most powerful familia in Orario!"

After saying this sentence, Hestia immediately stood up and left the room.

However, the direction she left was not outside the blacksmith shop, but towards the backyard.

Apparently, the words just now were just for a moment. Hestia would probably never work hard until she was kicked out of the residence of Hephaestus family!

Akira withdrew his eyes thoughtfully, but directly met Hephaestus meaningful eyes.

"Cough, Hephaestus, please help me update my ability value!"

"Take off your clothes and lie down!"

Taking off her shirt and lying on the bed, Hephaestus sat down on the edge of the bed, took out the tools, and prepared to update Akira's ability value.

While performing actions, the other side did not forget to start a small chat: "Aki, I saw you caring about Hestia just now, do you like her?"

"of course not..."

Akira was taken aback by the question in his ear. Just as he subconsciously refuted, he suddenly thought that gods can see through lies, and his voice stopped abruptly.

After a while, Akira could only bite the bullet and nod, "Actually, I can't say that I like her. Just like when I first met you, It's just a normal reaction for a man like me..."

Hephaestus shook her head with a smile on the contrary. No matter which way she heard it, her smile at this time was full of light joy.

Maybe it's the joy of hearing the truth, but also other things.

With the floating blue sacred text, the final fixed value slowly emerged.

"Well, that's it, get up, the ability values ​​have been updated!" Hephaestus patted Akira's back lightly, and then said in surprised words: "But it's really strange, Aki, the improvement of just a first dungeon dive give you this, could it be that strange skill?"

It can be seen that the talent of Akira seemed to be more powerful than she had imagined.

The basic ability value has been increased by more than 900 points, this speed is simply appalling.

If this situation continues, Hephaestus has no doubts that Akira will be able to break the record for the fastest upgrade to level up.

It's amazing that this kind of genius take the initiative to find her and join her familia.

Her luck is really good!

At this moment, even Hephaestus, who is a goddess, couldn't help being speechless.

Feeling the changes in himself and the update of his abilities, Akira couldn't help but nodded in satisfaction.

...

After bidding farewell to Hephaestus, Akira returned to his room.

Lying flat on the soft bed, looking at the strange ceiling but his eyes were not focused as he was thinking about what happened today in his mind.

I have to say, it's really quite dreamy.

I traveled thousands of miles to labyrinth city of Orario, and join the Hephaestus familia. With the blessing of the Hephaestus, he dive to dungeon and update his falna. Everything seems to be going well in the direction he wants..

"I didn't expect that today's ability value will increase so much, which is a little bit beyond my expectation, or is it just the first time I entered the dungeon, will there be such a big change?"

Whispering softly, Akira likes to keep thinking when he is free.

After rubbing his shriveled stomach, Akira felt an obvious sense of hunger.

"It's getting late, so let's go to bed after eating something. After all, there are still many things to be busy tomorrow."

There is a special kitchen in the Hephaestus family. If there is no important matter, the family members usually stay at their own forgeand will not eat at the same time since everyone is very busy.

Akira got up and opened the door, and was about to walk towards the kitchen.

However, just as he walked out of the room, he saw Hephaestus and Tsubaki walking towards him not far away, followed by Hestia.

"Hephaestus, Hestia, Tsubaki, what are you doing?"

"Ah! We're going to have dinner. As for Hestia, she just wants to have dinner for free. I'm really ashamed to have such a godly friend!"

Hephaestus showed a helpless expression on her face, looking at Hestia's face, she really didn't know what to say.

She is powerless to complain!

"I see," Akira nodded knowingly, with a slight smile on his face.

Naturally, he also knew that Hestia lived in Hephaestus family for six months or so, and will be kicked out after wearing out the patience of Hephaestus.

I just don't know how long it will be until that day arrives, but according to him it will take at least 3 month.

"Then Hephaestus, do you want to come with me? I'm going to the kitchen to make something to eat."

Akira sent an invitation to Hephaestus.

However, the latter shook her head without hesitation.

"Don't be so troublesome, Akira, we are actually here to find you." Seeing the puzzled expression on Akira's face, Hephaestus smiled, "Today is your first day joining the family, so we will Let's go out and celebrate."

Huh?! Is it really necessary?" Akira was quite surprised.

Hephaestus did not continue to speak, but Tsubaki added: "Of course it is necessary, but there are only a few of us, and most of the other members of the family were dragged into the dungeon by the rest of the family, so wanting to see you can only be next time for them."

"It doesn't matter, then listen to the Goddess!"

"Yay, celebrate, have a big meal!"

Hestia's sudden yell made the three present show helpless expressions at the same time.

 …

Hostess Of Fertility, The most famous pub in Orario.

The employee in this pub are all beautiful girls, and many of them are former adventurers. In addition, the dishes taste pretty good, so they are sought after by many adventurers.

Not only that, there is many powerful familia members who would choose to have dinner here.

Of course, famous and delicious pub like this are not without disadvantages. The unit price of the dishes here is quite expensive, and there is a store manager who likes to sell by force, so many adventurers simply cannot afford to spend here. The kind that will ruin the familia once.

The sky gradually dimmed, and many adventurers returned to the ground one after another.

Those who have gained a lot will choose to go to various pub to enjoy themselves, while the disheartened adventurers can only return to their respective familia..

Of course, all of this has nothing to do with Akira and the others.

Leaving aside the wealthy Hephaestus family, Akira alone earned tens of thousands of mana from entering the dungeon for the first time today, which is more than enough for a meal at the rich hostess.

"Akira, I'm treating guests today, so you can order whatever you want!"

"Oh? Can you really order casually?"

Hephaestus words had not yet received a response from Akira, but Hestia, who had the cheek to follow her for a meal, took the initiative to ask.

Boom!

Hephaestus punched Hestia lightly on the head, "Hestia, please calm down a bit, don't make any more demands!"

"It hurts, Hephaestus is too much, anyway, I'm also a guest."

Hestia, who was holding her head, had tears in her eyes, and she couldn't help complaining to Hephaestus.

It's a pity that Hephaestus, who has seen this scene countless times, has been completely immune and has not softened her heart. This also makes Hestia can only turn her head aside to sulk.

Playing around between the gods is really childish...

However, this is probably the cuteness of female gods!

The four talk along the way, and soon opened the door to enter Hostess of Fertility.

"Yo, Mia, good evening!"

Hestia, who was still sulking before, walked into the store first, recovered instantly after smelling the aroma of the food, and directly raised her hand to greet the female store manager standing behind the counter with a warm and natural attitude.

But, she doesn't just come to Hostess of Fertility to dinner often.

After all, the level of consumption here is very high, and Hestia, who has no financial resources at all, can't come here to eat, so she can only come here to taste once in a while when Hephaestus treats guests.

Hestia hadn't come here for a long time, so Hestia would naturally not miss this good opportunity.

"Oh? It's Goddess Hestia, and Goddess Hephaestus, how many are there?"

"Hmph, of course it's four people!"

The unpretentious Hestia put her left hand on her waist, and raised four fingers on her right hand.

Hephaestus and Tsubaki are already used to this, and neither of them is the kind of person who cares too much, so they won't say much.

"Four, right? Lunoire, entertain this guests!"

"coming!"

A crisp response sounded from the side, and a human with short blond hair appeared with the shout and came in front of everyone.

Lunoire bowed slightly toward Akira and the other expressionlessly, "Goddess Hestia, Goddess Hephaestus, please come with me!"

"Well, sorry to trouble you, Miss Clerk!"

A group of four followed behind Lunoire, walking towards a certain direction of the shop.

Since the time is evening, it has already many customers in the pub, most of the tables are already full, and all kinds of exquisite food have been placed on the tables.

Adventurers from different familia exchanged cups, it was really lively.

Fortunately, there are only four people at Akira's side, and there is no need for a large table. You just need to find a normal table, and the four people can sit together and it's done.

Fortunately, there weren't too many people coming today, otherwise, they might not find a suitable place, and the celebration dinner would be ruined by then.

After several people were seated, before they had time to order food, someone came to the door.

"Oh, isn't this the dwarf? I haven't seen you for a long time, and I didn't expect to meet you here. Are you here to find Hephaestus for a meal? You really have a thick skin. If I were you, I will definitely return to the heavens in shame."

A slightly teasing words sounded,

A woman with a red ponytail came not far away, her tightly squinted eyes gave off a very shrewd feeling, as if she was planning something strange.

The moment she saw this person, Hestia, who was still in high spirits just now, frowned.

"It's you again, Flat Loki, what are you doing here?"

In fact, you don't need to look at it at all. Hestia probably knows who it is just by listening to this very strange voice.

"What did you say? Little dwarf, you have the ability to say it again!"

Loki, who obviously wanted to come over to mock Hestia, was directly overwhelmed by the other party's 'flat' word. Even she are very concerned about this kind of thing.

Therefore, no one mentiom this unless someone want her revenge.

"So what if you say it again? Flat Loki, you can't hear me? Then say it again, I will continue talking until you hear it, Flat Loki!!"

"Bastard, you little dwarf, go to hell!"

The successive provocations made Loki furious. She was obviously a goddess, but after she was provoked, she actually rushed forward, grabbed Hestia's cheek and began to pull.

On the other hand, Hestia was naturally not to be outdone, and stretched out her hand intending to touch Loki's cheek.

However, the gap in height is reflected at this time.

Loki was a head taller than Hestia, and her arms were naturally much longer. Even if Hestia tried to reach forward, she still couldn't touch Loki's cheek.

In desperation, she could only turn her head and attack Loki's arm.

The two highly respected goddesses are entangled like children fighting. The picture can be said to be quite amazing, which immediately aroused the cheers of the entire restaurant.

Goddesses fight, what a beautiful thing!

"Hephaestus, is it really okay to let both of them fight like this?"

Seeing that things are getting bigger and bigger, although Akira also likes to watch their fight, but the impact is not very good, and they are here for dinner, so it would be better to end it like this.

"Really, I don't understand why the two of them fight every time they meet."

Hephaestus also covered her cheeks helplessly. She has seen this kind of scene too many times, and she is already somewhat immune. It is really a shameful thing to be the same god as these two guys.

However, what Akira said is true, and she can't let let the quarrel continue.

"Akira, go and pull Hestia away, and besides, Riveria, I'm sorry to trouble you!"

Hearing Hephaestus words, Akira stepped forward, and just as he was about to separate the two entangled goddesses, another person moved faster.

A female elf with long emerald green hair quietly appeared next to Loki, and a staff drawn out from nowhere precisely hit Loki's head.

Akira who was close enough, even heard the dull sound, which made him frown subconsciously.

It's too ruthless!

The severe pain caused Loki to let go of her hands, holding her head with tears in her eyes. Akira also came back to his senses in an instant, and stretched out his hand to hold Hestia, who was about to pursue the victory. The conflicts were calmed down.

"Akira, let me go, I must let this stinky tablet know how powerful I am!"

"Huh? How dare you say it, you little dwarf. If it weren't for someone's help, I'd have ripped your face off today, making it impossible for you to come out to meet people in the future... ah!"

Only halfway through Loki's yelling, she was hit by the staff again, and her whole body fell silent instantly.

"Hestia, don't take the initiative to cause trouble. If you offend Hephaestus and won't let you eat in the future, that would be bad!"

Akira also took this opportunity to remind Hestia softly.

Sure enough, under the threat of Akira, Hestia also fell silent instantly.
