Chapter 4 - Goddess, I Can't Bear It!
'Bang—'
The moment the 'malice' began to riot, Ottar by Freya's side took immediate action.
A simple and unpretentious punch landed directly on Ethan's stomach, causing intense pain and immediately waking Ethan up from daze.
However, before he could react, Ottar knocked him unconscious.
For Ottar, whatever the goddess desired, he would offer, even if it meant finding her other men without hesitation.
(PS: What a simp!)
"So, these 'evils' are not his sins, but burdens placed on him. It's really interesting. Clearly just a mortal from the lower world, yet he carries such 'pure evil,'" Freya remarked.
In the moment of agitation of 'All Evil of the World,' Freya perceived some 'traces.'
As a goddess who had lived for millions of years and possessed 'eyes' that could discern the color of 'souls,' she saw through it, even though 'All Evil of the World' was not a product of this world.
However, Freya couldn't comprehend why a mere human would bear such 'pure evil.'
[Potential Hero]
Such a thought emerged in Freya's mind.
In this world, heroes were undoubtedly what the gods most wanted to see, not necessarily because of their strength or extraordinariness, but because it brought great amusement to the gods.
Moreover, this world was yearning for the birth of a 'hero.'
The previous generation of Orario twin kings, the mighty Zeus and Hera Familia, were far more powerful than the current Freya and Loki Familia.
However, they eventually became dust in history.
Some things can only be achieved by 'heroes,' miracles that are not achieved by 'strong individuals.'
"Ottar, take him with us. Let's go back. Unexpectedly, we discovered something amazing."
"Yes~"
Lifting Ethan with one hand, Ottar loyally followed behind Freya.
Many people around witnessed all this, but none felt that something was amiss.
Instead, they cast 'envious and jealous' gazes at the unconscious Ethan.
Because, this was the strongest Freya Familia in Orario, and many couldn't even get close.
But this lucky guy just shouted, "I want a goddess to support me," and then he was chosen by the goddess of beauty, Freya.
Many people almost couldn't help but try it out on the street.
In this way, although he didn't leave his name, Ethan's reputation spread in Orario.
A person shouting 'I want a goddess to support me' on the street, then being chosen by goddess Freya and taken away, was undoubtedly explosive news.
Just like in modern society, being kept by a wealthy woman is an embarrassing fact for men to admit.
However, many men have no way to gain the favor of a wealthy woman.
—Time Skip—
"Hmm~"
In a moment of confusion, Ethan felt very comfortable, as if he was in a five-star hotel room.
The highest-quality bed, silk sheets, gave a refreshing feeling as if he was on a cloud.
Subconsciously, Ethan even rubbed against it a few times.
"Did you sleep well?"
A pleasant voice sounded in his ears, and Ethan opened his eyes drowsily.
What met his eyes wasn't a normal five-star hotel but an incredibly luxurious room.
A huge bed, about four or five meters wide, and the quilt covering him were made of an unknown material but incredibly silky.
Sitting up, not far away, Freya's clothes were slightly enchanting, like a blooming mandrake flower.
"Goddess Freya?"
Memory began to retrace, and Ethan suddenly remembered that he had been knocked out by Ottar.
Looking at the surroundings, is this Freya's room?
Thinking about Freya's reputation in "Danmachi," Ethan's first reaction was to open the blanket.
Although a bit shameful, having been a Virgin Wizard for twenty years, he couldn't just hand over his virginity like that.
You at least have to let him have some 'memory,' otherwise, wouldn't it be too unfair?
As for the 'notorious' reputation of the other party, Ethan didn't care.
Although he had a bit of a 'virgin complex,' it was only for his wife.
Men are all lustful, and if it's mutual consent, what the other person does in their private life is their business.
He just needs to have a good time, and as for other serious stuff? He's not her boyfriend, nor are they married.
After lifting the blanket, his clothes were still there, and Ethan breathed a sigh of relief, it looks like his 'chastity' was still intact.
However, after the relief, Ethan felt a bit disappointed.
You abducted me and didn't do anything? What's the meaning of this? Did I displease you?
"Your performance is quite rich. So many emotions and expressions, all displayed on your face in such a short time. It really opened my eyes," Freya said, putting down the goblet in her hand.
The red wine in the glass, like blood, filled the room with a rich and intoxicating aroma.
"Hehe, Goddess Freya, sorry for making you laugh~"
With Freya saying this, Ethan also blushed a bit. He was indeed quite contradictory.
Looking at Ethan, a hint of brilliance flashed in Freya's eyes.
In this world, gods are eternal and unchanging, even after millions of years.
However, the 'children' of the lower world, although as weak as ants, are full of endless 'possibilities.'
The 'evil' carried by Ethan made Freya very curious and interested.
Unlike her longing for 'shining and brilliant souls' over the years, she was curious about what kind of person this human was.
Why would he, just an 'ordinary person,' bear such 'great evil'?
"Before, you said on the street that you wanted a goddess to support you. I think you're not bad, so I've decided to fulfill your little wish~~~"
"Huh?"
Hearing Freya's words, Ethan was suddenly dumbfounded, followed by a bitter smile.
To be honest, among the many Familias in Orario, although Freya Familia is the strongest, it is not the best choice for him.
Because everyone in Freya Familia is a die-hard follower of goddess Freya.
All members of Freya Familia view each other as 'potential rivals,' and the hostility between them will never disappear, even though they will absolutely execute all commands under the goddess's orders.
Moreover, all members of Freya Familia need to undergo 'baptism' after joining the Familia.
Before reaching level 5, they need to fight desperately in 'Folkvangr,' fighting each other until they meet the 'standards.'
This is why, in Orario, although Freya Familia is the strongest, it's rare to see members of Freya Familia on the streets.
Even if you're lucky enough to encounter them, they are all those with well-known reputations, like Ottar.
In such a 'cruel' environment, after being 'supported' by the other party, he really fears that one day, he might be dismembered by those crazy guys in her Familia!
Ethan really wants to say, Goddess, I can't bear it!
