"Thank you for your patronage." Isao showed a gentle smile toward the customer, who bought a Jagamarukun. "Please come again."
"Yes, I will come again." A woman with exotic skin color and skimpy clothes looked at him longingly and asked, "So, can you accompany me tonight?"
"NO WAY! GET OUT HERE AFTER YOU BUY YOUR JAGAMARUKUN!"
Hestia scolded the woman mercilessly and swept away the woman's hand, which wanted to touch Isao's face aggressively, like an angry puppy.
Isao looked at Hestia helplessly, then looked at the woman. "As you have heard, I am sorry. Someone will get jealous if I come with you."
"That's a shame, but if you need comfort from your clingy goddess, please come to him." The woman winked at Isao and then looked at Hestia in a provoking manner.
Hestia grounded her teeth, then looked at Isao helplessly. "Do you have to smile like that? Or rather, wear your glasses again." Isao was her first Familia member, and she didn't want him to leave her. Moreover, she hadn't given him a blessing, so there might be a chance for him to be pulled by other goddesses or gods, so she had to be careful.
"A customer is a king, and in business, if you want to become big, then you have to do this," Isao said calmly as if the words of the previous woman hadn't touched him at all. "You don't have to worry. All of that is just for business, so we can finish this as soon as possible."
"...."
Hestia blinked her eyes, but then she sighed in relief since Isao only showed such a smile to help her, and if there were women who were seduced, then it was their fault.
Still, at this moment, she realized that Isao was craftier than she had imagined.
Nevertheless, with all his hard work, all the Jagamarukun quickly sold out, and Hestia quickly pulled him away. While it was true that Isao might not be the most handsome out there, his face wasn't bad, and he was about his attractiveness was about the same as those gods in heaven.
Or rather, if Isao was a female, then his beauty should be slightly below her, Hestia thought.
Still, Hestia also knew that she wasn't the most beautiful, but somehow, she wished she was one so that way she could charm Isao and completely fall for her.
Yes, she knew that this feeling was heavy and borderline crazy, but when she was in the darkness without anyone, Isao was the only one who came, giving him the warmth that she wished for the most.
As she felt this warm, she didn't want to lose it again!
Still, as the Jagamarukun had sold out, Hestia quickly brought Isao to her place, the abandoned church.
"So, before I officially become your Familia member, I will need a Falna from you, right?"
"Yes." Hestia nodded and told him that a Falna was a blessing given by the gods and goddesses so those who lived in the lower world could become stronger, and it was also a sign that they were part of a Familia.
As Isao was still a virgin, without Falna on his back, Hestia knew that she had to claim his first.
However, before they went back, Isao said, "Let's buy some food first."
"Foods? Eh? Are you going to cook?" Hestia didn't mind following Isao, but she thought that Isao was going to buy a bento or takeout, so when she saw that Isao brought several ingredients, she was dumbfounded.
"Yes."
"Can you cook?"
I can't say that I am the best cook, but it should be good enough." Isao had collected the DNA of many famous chefs, so it was normal for him to be able to cook, and he had to say that the ingredients of this world, even though their names were quite different, were quite similar. There were some ingredients that were different and needed special preparation, but it shouldn't be a problem for him.
At the same time, Isao felt that this place was similar to Europe in the past, so the ingredients were limited, and there wasn't much spice.
'If I join the Demeter Familia...'
If he chose the Demeter Familia, he was sure that the goddess could do something with the various ingredients he wished for, but as he had to choose Hestia, he knew that he had to do his best, and he would definitely not change his Familia to Demeter Familia or any others!
Definitely!
Hestia didn't know what Isao was thinking, but she was happy she had someone by her side. Tightly holding his hand and even pressing her soft body against his, letting her ample breasts touch his body, she was having fun walking around the market with him.
Still, Isao was as cool as a cucumber. Hestia was beautiful, but she wasn't his type. Moreover, he knew that Hestia was a virgin goddess, someone who had kept her virginity for eons.
While he admitted that he was a good guy, he definitely wasn't a loyal guy.
Still, if it were others, they might not be able to calm down and even get an erection when Hestia was so close, but as Isao had many experiences, he was rather calm, especially when he didn't want to hurt her.
Yet, for Hestia, this was the best!
She thought this was a date, and she was so happy, especially because Isao was such a gentleman!
The two visited many stalls, looking for something interesting, and bought some ingredients.
"What are you going to make?"
Watching all the ingredients Isao had picked up, Hestia asked curiously.
"Let's wait until it is time for dinner."
"You are right." Hestia nodded. "I will give you a blessing first!"
With that, the two quickly came to the abandoned church, but when they arrived, Hestia glanced at Isao, staring at his reaction, wondering whether he was disappointed with her place, but somehow he was calm, which made her sigh in relief.
"When I have made money, let's get a better place."
"Um!"
Hestia nodded obediently, especially when she knew Isao's talent in business.
"Are you going to make a business too?"
Still, whatever Isao wanted to do, Hestia was going to support him.
"No, I will become an adventurer. Without power, I can't protect my business."
"You are right."
Hestia nodded and knew that no matter what, everyone had to rely on power. If you were weak, you would be oppressed even if you had money. If a deity wasn't powerful, then they might become a target of that human, especially with how beautiful and handsome they were.
"I will support you."
Hestia supported him if Isao wanted to become powerful.
So, when they entered the abandoned church, the place where Hestia lived, she directly said, "Now, open your clothes! Let me give you my blessing on your body!"
"..."
Isao blinked his eyes, then sighed helplessly. "It's my first time, so please be gentle, Hestia." He was about to remove his pants, but then he stopped and asked, "Are you not going to stop me?"
"..."
Hestia blinked her eyes and wiped her nosebleed, feeling slightly disappointed somehow, but then she shook her head and said, "You only need to remove your shirt. Also, don't make such a joke to others."
If it were others, Hestia was sure that they would have attacked Isao already.
Fortunately, she was a virgin goddess, so Isao was safe, but if she wasn't, then Isao's innocence would be gone!
"Um."
Isao nodded like a good boy. Still, he removed his jacket and shirt, showing his well-built body.
"Wo-Wow..."
Hestia thought that Isao was quite slim, but when Isao took off his clothes, she saw a manly and strong body that was filled with vitality. This was the body of a man, she thought.
She might be a virgin, but it didn't mean she didn't have knowledge of sexual knowledge. Even so, she could say that Isao's body was more amazing than any god in heaven.
Nevertheless, this also strengthened her thought to quickly give him her blessing!
She took out a needle, making a small wound on her finger, then used her finger to give a blessing to Isao's back, and at the same time marveling and blushing at the feeling of a strong back on her fingertip.
Isao could feel that Hestia drew something, like a symbol, and at the same time, he could feel something enter his body. It wasn't something harmful, and it was like a mutual symbiosis relationship.
Still, at the same time, this also smoothed and increased the speed of his replication over Apollo's DNA.
"Done."
Watching her blessing on Isao's powerful and manly back, Hestia flushed with excitement. Her slender fingertips touched against his back once again, but this wasn't enough as she decided to press her face against his back, hearing his strong heartbeat.
"Hestia? Is it done?"
"Ah, um! Yes! It's done!"
Only when Hestia looked at Isao's face did she turn her head and feel her face was hot.
'Eh? Doesn't he become more handsome now?'
