After a brief absence, the two landed on the ground together.
In today's era, there is no such thing as a camera, so there is no need to worry about being discovered by others, which will cause unnecessary trouble.
Entering the bustling street, everything around is so novel.
Yami also came to this place for the first time, so he didn't know where the library was at all. It was only after asking other people around that he found the target location~.
The largest library in all of Tokyo.
"We're here. Goddess-sama."
Standing at the door of the library with Hephaestus and Tsubaki, Yami spoke softly.
Unfortunately, at this point in time, the library was about to close, and no one else was allowed to enter it, which made him a little embarrassed.
"It's easy."
After seeing his expression, Hephaestus chuckled lightly and she activated her divine power again.
The figures of several people were instantly enveloped by divine power, and then their whole body became transparent, and completely lost their traces, but they could still see each other.
Surprisingly, others act as if they don't exist.
"This is a very simple concealment magic. In addition to being invisible, it can also hide breath and sound. No one will find us, so no one will stop us when we go in."
Speaking of this, Hephaestus even tilted her head, skillfully showing her cuteness.
"Uh... that's true, let's go in then."
It seems that if they don't go in today, she won't let it go, so let's go in. Anyway, isn't this the purpose of Yami bringing Hephaestus to another world?
Falling into a hidden state, there is no one to stop them at all.
All the way into the library unimpeded, there was almost no one there at this time, only the cleaning staff were still working hard, and soon even the staff left one after another.
The venue, which was bright before, instantly became dark.
"The way of lighting in this world is really interesting. It doesn't seem to be magic stone lamps."
While using magic to light up the surrounding area, Hephaestus looked at Yami who was beside her, and the latter nodded immediately: "That's right, except for the dead ghosts and the surviving Demon Slayer team and others, there probably isn't much in this world. There is no such thing as supernatural power here, and the way to illuminates is something called an electric light."
"Providing lighting through electricity is one of the few feats of human beings."
"Oh, this is a bit too exaggerated. Apart from mages, can ordinary humans actually conquer thunder and lightning?"
Tsubaki questioned at the right time, with disbelief written all over his face.
However, Yami's next reaction made her have to believe what she heard.
"In fact, it can't be said to be conquering. People in this world call it science. They use special means to clarify the basic structure of electricity and control it. However, they are still powerless against lightning in nature. Not only that, but the force device There are often major accidents.
"The relevant content should be in this library, and you will be able to see it later, Captain."
"It's incredible, is this the wisdom of human beings?"
Both Tsubaki and Hephaestus showed amazement on their faces, and their pace also accelerated a lot involuntarily.
Finally, they came to the library, which was completely different from the library Yami had visited in his previous life. It was a little simpler, but it was slightly better in terms of the type and quantity of the collection.
Hephaestus picked up a book and opened it, and the text was clear.
The common characters of this world are exactly the same as Orario's.
Regarding this point, Yami can't explain it. He can only boil it down to the fact that the common language in the Japanese animation is Japanese language, the common language in the world of American Comics is English Language, etc...
Therefore, Hephaestus and Tsubaki understood the content of the book almost effortlessly.
Coincidentally, Tsubaki had a book on electricity in her hand.
The words are obviously easy to understand, but after being combined together, the most powerful human blacksmith in Orario suddenly became clueless and felt dizzy for a while.
Can humans really read these things?
"Is this technology? Really interesting stuff."
Compared with Tsubaki, Hephaestus, who is a god, can easily understand the knowledge in the books. Because of this, she is amazed by the wisdom of humans in this world.
Compared with the human beings of Orario, it is obvious that only the behavior of human beings in this world can be called great.
This library is completely a treasure trove. Even a god like her will feel that she has benefited a lot after reading it. It was really hard to believe that this would happen in the past!
"Is this the difference in another world? The completely opposite development is really eye-opening!"
After saying this, Hephaestus raised her head again, her eyes showed sincerity, "Yami, thank you for bringing me into this world, this knowledge is enough for me to study for a long time, I have never thought that besides divine power and magic power, there actually exists a kind of power called 'technology', which can accomplish things that neither divine power nor magic power can accomplish, and human beings full of infinite possibilities are really fascinating!"
It was the first time for Yami to see Hephaestus showing such obsession.
However, the red-haired goddess who is in a state of sickness and frenzy is also so fascinating!
"Hephaestus-sama, you are too far-fetched, aren't we Familia?"
Seeing Yami's reasonable tone, Hephaestus was also slightly taken aback, then nodded in agreement, "Ah, that's right, we are Familia."
"By the way, if I want to take all these books away, there shouldn't be any problem, right?"
"Uh...there is no problem in theory. These books are not secrets. What can be displayed is basically known to everyone. At most, it will cost a little manpower, financial resources and material resources. "
She didn't expect his goddess to be so gallant, which made Yami a little dazed.
"Is that so? That's easy."
Saying so, Hephaestus stretched out her hand, packed all the books, and all entered a mysterious space. At the same time, she used divine power to create a large amount of gold.
Placed in the very center of the library, the gleaming gold bricks are also very conspicuous in the dark.
"With this gold, there shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Seeing this scene, Yami was really overwhelmed.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, expressing his current mood.
But there is nothing wrong with it. After all, the money is given, so it is neither stolen nor robbed. The gold is absolutely enough to buy all the books in the library, and there are even a lot of leftovers.
In some respects, there really isn't any problem.
"Hephaestus-sama is wise and powerful, I seem to have read a book about forging just now, can you give me a good look at it when we get back?"
"No problem. In the future, there will be an extra library in the Familia, which is specially used to collect books from other worlds. Only the children in the Familia and I are allowed to enter, and books are absolutely not allowed to be taken out. You can read them for as long as you want."
Hephaestus spoke of her plans for the future.
However, Tsubaki questioned, "Shouldn't it be necessary. These books can be placed in your room, Hephaestus-sama. Is it necessary to have a separate library? How can you get so many books?"
Hearing this sentence, Hephaestus showed a meaningful smile, and looked aside intentionally or unintentionally.
"Who knows, maybe we can find portals to other worlds in the future, Yami, what do you think?"
"Ugh, maybe, maybe not..."
Being stared at by Hephaestus, Yami was a little flustered, so Yami could only smile stiffly, and responded ambiguously, with a guilty conscience on his face.
Fortunately, his red-haired goddess didn't embarrass him for too long.
The three left the library soon after, and at the same time, under the leadership of Yami, they went to other countries. In addition to sightseeing, they also collected books.
The next day, this strange phenomenon was discovered in many countries. The books in the largest library in the country were stolen. No trace of the crime was found, but a large amount of gold was left at the scene.
This situation did not cause much disturbance.
After some investigations to no avail, everyone gave up on continuing the investigation, thinking it was a supernatural phenomenon, and at the same time recorded the incident in a certain book.
And the person who caused all this has already returned to Orario.
Unlike when they left, they returned with more people.
The rock pillar Gyomei Himejima, the wind pillar Sanemi Shinazugawa, and Kyojuro Rengoku.
Now only high-end combat power is needed for the time being. After all, the Hestia Familia has not yet found a suitable resident. If too many people are brought back, there will be no benefit at all, but it will cause even more trouble for the Hestia Familia.
Therefore, after consideration by Kagaya and Hestia, only these three candidates were brought back.
"Yohohohoho, there are three outstanding children again. According to this situation, my Familia will definitely develop faster and faster, and sooner or later, I will become the most powerful Familia!"
Hestia, who had completely fallen into a fantasy state due to excitement, was crossing her hips at this time, showing a strange smile.
Hephaestus, who also gained a lot, immediately showed a helpless expression after hearing this sentence.
"Then the most powerful Familia Goddess in the future, can I trouble you to move out of my Familia?"
"Ahh…"
Hestia froze.
Hephaestus didn't show mercy, and continued: "Now you have also found an excellent child and established your own Familia. Your starting point is already better than I was back then, so you should learn to be self-reliant. Are you going to always live in another Familia?"
"Although you are my friend, you should also know that it is impossible for me to support you all the time. This is very unfair to my children."
There is nothing wrong with what she said.
The children of Hephaestus's Familia can support Hephaestus, because Hephaestus gave them the favor of God and helped them answer difficult questions about forging.
So they are obliged and responsible to support Hephaestus.
However, they are not related to Hestia, and although they will maintain the most basic respect, they have no obligation to support Hestia at all. They didn't express anything because of their main god. That's why they turn a blind eye.
But now, there are so many irrelevant adventurers living there, which is very problematic.
Maybe some casual Familia members don't care, but it doesn't mean everyone doesn't care.
At least, in order to prevent her Familia members from having a conflict because of an accident, and it was impossible for Hephaestus to have the cheek to let her own children continue to support an irrelevant god.
Even if this god is a good god friend of her, it is not allowed.
"So, Hestia, what are you going to do next?"
"I know, I know! Do you need to be in such a hurry? Although I have recruited fairly good children, it is not that simple to obtain the initial funds to buy a residence, Hephaestus, you…Can't you be more flexible? You don't want to see your friends living on the streets, do you?"
Saying that, Hestia showed a pitiful look, as if she had already started to act cute.
It was not the first time to see such an expression, which made Hephaestus helplessly stroke her forehead.
It's really embarrassing to make this kind of choice in person, but there's no way around it, she can't interfere anymore, it's not good for Hestia growing up!
After all, the development of the Familia cannot be smooth sailing, and she still needs to work hard on her own.
"I'll give you the last three days, Hestia, quickly find a suitable place to stay, and then move out of my place, you should also learn what independence is!"
"Eh?!" Hestia's face instantly collapsed.
Yami at the side couldn't stand it anymore, so he reminded: "Hestia, actually you don't have to worry about it, Kagaya has brought a lot of gold, although several quantities are not particularly large, but there is no problem in buying a decent Familia resident."
"That's right, Goddess-sama, leave the matter of the residence to us. You have given me and the children your favor, and now it's time for us to make an offering!"
Kagaya is also matching on the side.
"Really? That's great!"
Hestia, who was still a little depressed at first, could even be said to be at a loss, immediately regained her spirit after hearing the words of the two and became full of energy again.
This scene fell into Hephaestus's eyes, and the helplessness in the depths of her eyes reappeared.
Can this girl in front of her really grow?
But no matter what, Hestia can be considered to have recruited a group of good children!
At least she doesn't need to continue to worry about her future life. As for what the Familia will develop into, it depends on how she guides it.
Maybe, the other party's unattainable dream can really come true!
No, it should be unlikely.
No matter how you look at it, only with Yami can she become the strongest Familia of Orario, this is absolutely beyond doubt!
the next day.
Everyone got up early and left Hephaestus Familia.
Yami plans to take a break for a few days, and by the way, make good use of the number of times through the simulation system, and will not enter the dungeon for the time being.
Speaking of which, since he came to Orario, he hasn't really visited this city yet!
He left the Familia residence early in the morning, and at the same time with Hestia, who has become full of energy after a night's rest, and Kagaya, Tanjiro, and Nezuko.
As for the others, they entered the dungeon again under the instigation of Sanemi.
Needless to say, in order to improve his strength and restore Kagaya's health, this group of people really worked hard. They only came back yesterday, but they went in again today.
However, with Yami's previous guidance, nothing would happen.
As for Yami and the others, apart from visiting Orario, the more important thing is to spend money on the house and choose a suitable Familia residence.
It is for this reason that the excitement on Hestia's face hangs all the way.
After all, this is her first Familia residence. Of course, she has to choose it herself, and she must find a great place.
"Then Hestia, Where do you want to place the Familia residence?"
While walking, Yami asked Hestia.
"Eh?! I haven't thought about it yet!" Hestia was taken aback for a moment, and responded in a daze, "Actually, I still prefer the Street of Adventurers. It would be even better if it could be close to the Tower of Babel, but the price should be very expensive, so let's forget it."
"Then it's better to get a little closer to the Familia residence of Miach and Takemikazuchi, so that it will be more convenient for me to visit them and Hephaestus."
Hestia expressed her request in a few words.
…
