Aston was naturally unaware of these individuals.
At this moment, he was happily rushing home.
Hestia should have come back by now.
After all, Hestia said last night that she wouldn't go to work today but would go look for Hephaestus.
Speaking of which, today is really a good day.
Leveled up five times in a row, not to mention the significant increase in strength, but also obtained two powerful treasures.
With two powerful treasures in hand, Aston's destructive power should be at level 4 or even level 5 now.
Of course, it is destructive power, not strength.
The powerful destructive power unleashed by Excalibur.
Having leveled up several times in a row, Aston's own magical power has also increased significantly. The power unleashed when releasing Excalibur will also become stronger.
Aston estimated that with his current magic power, if he exerted all his strength, he should be able to achieve the seven or eight levels of power of the Six-Restrained Excalibur
This kind of destructive power should be able to deal with Goliath, but it's unclear if it can directly take down Goliath in one move.
Moreover, this can only be used against large-sized monsters.
For agile first-level adventurers, it may not be effective.
After all, adventurers wouldn't stand there foolishly taking hits.
Especially the first-class adventurers are ridiculously fast. Maybe by the time you unleash the golden torrent of Excalibur, the first-class adventurer has already dodged it.
Of course, not at close range.
A close-range cannon shot, even a first-class adventurer, would be severely damaged.
As for the two Noble Phantasms he obtained, Aston also came up with a good excuse. He just said he found magical items in the dungeon, and anything happening in the dungeon is not surprising.
Returning to the Abandoned Church joyfully, Aston spotted Hestia right away.
Hestia, dressed in a chef's outfit and twirling her hips, was busy in the small kitchen, humming an unknown tune, apparently frying potatoes.
"Ah, you're back, Aston." Hestia immediately noticed Aston's return After a cheerful greeting, she turned off the stove and bounced out of the kitchen.
After rushing out of the kitchen, Hestia went to the corner of the room, struggled to lift a rectangular wooden box from the corner, and placed it on the table in front of the sofa.
"These are the equipment and weapons I asked for from Hephaestus. She personally made them today. Try them on." Hestia eagerly invited Aston.
"Wow, they really exist." Hearing Hestia's words, Aston couldn't help but blurt out.
With these words, Hestia's face immediately turned displeased.
"What do you mean? Do you not trust your goddess so much?!!!" Hestia crossed her arms and complained discontentedly.
"Ah, sorry, sorry." Aston felt slightly embarrassed when he heard this and apologized.
He didn't really expect much from this matter, but Hestia did manage to get this aid equipment from Hephaestus.
This incident didn't happen in the original story.
Was it because Hestia, after being kicked out by Hephaestus, kept messing around for several months without establishing her own Familia, so Hephaestus, who was truly disappointed, canceled this agreement?
Aston didn't understand, and he didn't really care about it. He shook his head and put the matter aside.
As for Hestia, her displeasure came and went quickly. After Aston apologized, she directly let go of her unhappiness, with a face full of anticipation, she said, "Hurry up and open it to see."
"I followed your request and told Hephaestus about the style."
Aston nodded slightly, reached out, and opened the wooden box.
As soon as the wooden box was opened, Aston was slightly stunned.
He wasn't good at describing things, and the requirements he mentioned to Hestia yesterday were somewhat vague.
Unexpectedly, Hephaestus had actually created such a set of armor and weapons based on Aston's not-so-precise description.
The weapon was a knight's longsword, looking very exquisite, with a faint cold light on the blade, obviously a very good weapon.
But Aston's attention was not on the weapon; it was completely attracted by the armor.
"Fate, huh?" Touching the armor in the box, Aston murmured softly.
Aston didn't really believe in fate, but today, he rarely believed in fate.
He had just obtained Excalibur and Avalon from Arthur Pendragon, but Hestia sent him a set of armor that was nine levels similar to the armor worn by Arthur.
What else could it be if not fate?
And at this moment, Hestia's voice suddenly sounded.
"Huh? Aston, where did this fancy weapon at your waist come from? It looks so gorgeous!"
"Uh, I got it in the dungeon, it's a magical item." Aston replied, slightly stunned, then answered.
This was a pre-prepared explanation.
"Hm, it seems that some adventurer met with misfortune and left it behind."
"But seriously, this weapon is way too fancy, even the scabbard. It just doesn't look like something adventurers from the upper levels would use."
"Your luck is just insane." Hestia didn't doubt it for a moment, patting Aston on the shoulder, genuinely happy for him.
Hestia couldn't tell Aston was lying, so she was naturally curious about how such a luxurious weapon ended up in the upper levels.
It's a downside for humans that they can't lie in front of gods, but for those who can bypass that rule, it's a pretty advantageous thing.
Just like Aston, whatever he says, Hestia won't doubt it.
"I have no idea about this." Aston shrugged, indicating he didn't know either.
There's no way adventurers in the upper levels would drop such a fancy weapon, so he's clueless.
"Anyway, forget about that. Having an extra weapon is a good thing."
"Your priority now is to put on the armor, see if it fits and if it looks good." Hestia shook her head, skipped over that topic, and brought the conversation back, slightly excited.
"Testing if it fits is normal, but why does it have to look good?" Aston was a bit embarrassed.
"Of course! You're my first Familia member, representing us. I naturally want your gear to look good. I can't have you wearing an ugly set of armor, can I?" Hestia stood with hands on her hips, confidently stating.
"Yes, yes, yes, I'll put it on and see." Aston didn't procrastinate, taking off his light armor and putting on the new one.
As Aston fastened the pieces of armor one by one, Hestia's expression gradually changed. The excited look on her face almost turned into that of an infatuated woman.
"So handsome, full of heroism, oozing nobility. And it just screams elegance. In my eyes, those male gods can't even compare to you."
"If you hadn't told me you grew up in an elf village, I would've thought you were royalty among the elves!!!" Watching Aston fully dressed, exuding a heroic and noble aura, Hestia spared no praise.
"Thanks for the compliment." Aston was genuinely pleased with Hestia's praise, making him feel light-hearted and responding with a smile.
"Hehe, looks like my taste is pretty good." Right after complimenting Aston, Hestia swiftly shifted the focus and started praising herself, making him embarrassed once again.
"Alright, enough with the self-praise. Help me update the Status."
"Today's Status is definitely going to blow your mind."
"Oh yeah? Well, I'm looking forward to it then."
"Don't dilly-dally, hurry up and update it."
"Hey, hey, I'm on it."
