On the wall of the Orario, the members of the Hestia Familia gathered along with Loki, Hephaestus, other deities, and their trusted Familia members.
If there was a reason why all of them came, it was because they went to send Isao off on this mission to help Artemis. It might be at dawn, the sun hadn't risen, yet all of them came, especially when they knew Isao would leave Orario.
The sudden request from Artemis startled them, but they knew that this goddess needed Isao right now, so while they were reluctant to let him go, they decided to let Isao go with Artemis.
"Do you really have to bring him there?" Loki asked helplessly. While she knew that this wasn't her character, she just felt like... it wouldn't be good to have Isao left. He had to stay, she thought.
"I am sorry."
Artemis only realized how important Isao was to Orario now, and she also knew her request was so sudden that she had troubled all of them. If she couldn't get his help, then who would she ask?
The spear had chosen him, and while he said that there was someone who could change him, Artemis didn't think so.
Only him, she thought.
If Isao knew what Artemis thought, he would be helpless by her obsession as it reminded him of her brother, Apollo, who acted the same. Fortunately, her gender was female, so he was fine with her, at least for now, but then, when he thought about the content of this mission after he learned it from Hermes' DNA, he could only sigh helplessly.
"Good luck over there," Finn said as he looked at Isao with a gentle smile.
"Yeah, you too, Finn."
The two had a fistbump, showing their close relationship, but this was normal since Isao was the one who helped Finn get a wife.
Liliruca Arde.
While some of those who knew the original story would be surprised, Isao felt that instead of following the protagonist, it was better for Lili to be with Finn as they were both Pallum and with the development of the story, he really couldn't imagine Lili to be chosen as the heroine, especially with many beautiful deities and heroines around.
"By the way, Riveria, take this."
Isao also took something similar to what he gave to Aiz to Riveria.
"Thank you." Watching the beautiful pendant, Riveria smiled and accepted it from him, then said softly, "Be careful."
"Yeah."
"..." Everyone.
While they had some suspicions, they didn't dare to express their doubts since they knew well how much Riveria hated a man, and as a queen of an elf, she was supposed to be pure. At the same time, Riveria was like a mother figure to Aiz, so would Isao make a move on someone who was like a mother to Aiz?
"...."
'He might,' they thought.
However, before they dwelled deeper into this problem, Isao said, "By the way, before we leave, there is something that I want to request from you two."
"What is it?" Loki asked with a doubt.
"Tell me." Hephaestus nodded as if telling Isao that it was okay to leave everything to her.
Everyone also looked at Isao, wondering what kind of a request he would ask them.
Isao took a deep breath and said, "Make sure that I got a cool alias on the Denatus, okay?"
"...."
Everyone fell in silence and wondered whether this was really a time for him to say that.
Oh, right, it was!
After all, when Isao left, the Denatus would be held, and by then, everyone would have to make an official nickname for him. Leaving Freya aside as he was afraid she might call him a "Secret Lover" or "My Husband," he knew he could trust Loki and Hephaestus.
As for Demeter, well, she should be sleeping at this moment since he held her hard before he went on the festival, after all.
"Tell Demeter sorry too since I have to go suddenly."
"...did you sleep with Demeter too?" Artemis suddenly asked in surprise. Yes, she knew that Isao was amazing since not only was he chosen by the spear, but she also heard about his achievements from Hestia when Isao and Hestia's Familia members prepared their luggage for this trip, yet for him to sleep with so many goddesses that she was familiar with... as expected, this young man was worthy of being chosen by the spear!
"...." Everyone.
"...can you not be so blunt?"
Isao looked at Artemis speechlessly, then glanced at the spear on his back with a helpless gaze, but then, when he thought about the real reason why this spear and Artemis had chosen him, he also understood why he was the best for this job.
Regardless, Loki and Hephaestus nodded.
"You don't have to worry about that. I have promised you before, right?"
"Leave what matters to me."
With the two of them, there was no way for Isao to have a shitty alias name.
"Thank you."
"By the way, I want to ask this before, but where is your luggage?" Finn asked in confusion since he knew that Isao would take so long on this trip. Where was their luggage?
"Let's talk later." Hermes cut short their conversation. "We don't have time." He then looked at Ganesha and said, "Thank you for preparing those dragons, Ganesha!"
"I AM GAHESHA!"
Ganesha shouted, then nodded. "Um! That's fine! You don't have to worry! But since I only have a limited time, I can't prepare for all of you!"
As this trip had to race against time, they had to arrive at their destination as soon as possible, so Hermes asked Ganesha for help preparing dragons as a means of transportation for all of them.
"If we walk, it will get us by a month, but with those, we will reach in ten days!"
Hermes chirpedly said, then pulled Hestia. "Anyway, you guys will sit in a pair of two! I will sit with Hestia! Cassandra-chan and Daphne-chan will sit together! Then, Isao-kun, please take care of Artemis, okay?" As he said so, he gave a wink to Isao.
"..." Isao.
"No! Let go of me, Hermes! I want to sit with Isao! No!"
Isao didn't say anything and just looked at the dragon, thinking that he should create a new means of transportation, thinking that it was a bit strange to ride on a dragon.
'Well... it's quite cool.'
When he thought about it, he had never thought of riding on a monster or living being, but then again, for him, who could open a warp gate and ride on a modern vehicle, such a thought was hardly present in his head.
"Come on, Isao-kun."
Isao looked up and saw Artemis, who had already sat on the dragon, stretching her hand toward him. Reaching that hand, he swiftly sat behind her and felt the softness of her body, which was so close.
Not only did she smell so good, but her butts were also firm yet bouncy that it made him a bit restless, especially when Artemis kept moving around, trying to search for a comfortable position to sit down, which caused her butts to rub against his nether region.
'I'm a new Isao! I can't be swayed by a woman!'
As he made that mantra, he also chanted a sutra to calm down.
Unlike the original protagonist, who was a virgin, Isao knew well that he was a bastard and a shitty man, so when there was a beautiful and good woman, his body reacted naturally as if a metal that was drawn toward a magnet.
Yet, he also wondered, was a virgin goddess such a thirsty whore who seduced an innocent man like him?
Regardless, this also made him wonder about the last virgin goddess who he hadn't met.
Still, with everyone ready, they started their trip toward the mission, leaving Orario.
Watching Isao, who left as he sat with Artemis, Loki squinted her eyes and asked in wonder, "How long do you think that virgin goddess will become a woman?"
"...."
How long indeed... yet while they weren't sure how long it would take Isao to take down Artemis, they had no doubt that the virgin goddess would fall toward him sooner or later.
Still, what they didn't know was that a big problem was about to arrive when Isao left.
"Oh, it's really a good time~!"

By the way, thanks for the answer yesterday about the mythical Zoan Devil Fruit.
Still, what do you think of Pegasus fruit?
Do you think it is powerful?
