Chapter 3 - 3 God of the Stove

"My dear wife, help me update my status, okay."

"Alright, Altair-kun, hurry up and lie down!"

In the basement of the abandoned church, Altair who was relaxing called out to Hestia to renew his adventurer status.

Adventurers in Orario were similar to adventurers in other sword and magic worlds, each having their own level. However, the levels and status of adventurers in Orario are more like in-game panels, complete with various statuses and skills. They went to dungeons to defeat monsters to accumulate experience and level up.

Altair took off his clothes and lay down on the bed, while Hestia sat on his back without hesitation. The gentle touch made Altair smile contentedly.

Hestia started by gently rubbing Altair's back with her right hand. Then, she pricked her index finger, dripping a drop of blood that instantly absorbed into Altair's skin, emitted light, and displayed some status suddenly.

Cheat:

I Altair doesn't use cheats!

Tom's Body:

Have you ever heard of Tom? That's right, the blue cat. With this skill, you'll have the same body as him. But remember, inheriting his nature also means you'll never be able to defeat an enemy named Jerry.

Wolf Wisdom:

You will have the wisdom and intelligence of Grey Wolf. But remember, you can never defeat a sheep.

Bear Power:

You have attracted the attention of the God of the Stove, thus being granted his power. From now on, you can spit fire from your mouth!]

In this world, adventurer attributes are classified from I to S, with I being the lowest and S the highest. S is the max attribute limit for most people.

After leveling up, new skills will appear, and the attributes will be reset back to the beginning.

"Oh! Altair-kun, your status has increased again! This time, two attributes reached the S rank, and it's already the limit!"

Looking at the status that appeared, Hestia shouted happily. As her only and favorite, the stronger Altair became, the prouder and happier Hestia became.

"It's incredible, Altair-kun has only been an adventurer for twenty days, but his status is already this high. Something like this has never happened in Orario before. Now, Altair-kun's status can fully increase your level to Level 2. This will be the record for the fastest Level 2 increase in Orario!"

While feeling happy, Hestia copied the status from Altair's back with parchment paper, then lay down on his back and handed the parchment to him.

"Getting to Level 2 doesn't need to be rushed. My status has only reached two S, I still want to collect more. Later, when the status is higher, then I will level up."

While enjoying the massage from Hestia's chest on his back, Altair looked at the status printed on the parchment.

"S is just an ordinary human's maximum limit, but I feel that it is not my limit."

As someone who used cheats, ordinary human limits did not apply to him.

"Yes, Altair-kun is very good. I'm sure Altair-kun can definitely surpass that limit."

In the original story, Bell managed to surpass the limit of S, and because she had a cheat skill called Liaris Freese, he leveled up very quickly, just like using the experience multiplier cheat, in just a month already rising to Level 2.

Altair might not have Liaris Freese, but he also had a cheat. Although he didn't gain double experience, he hunted monsters very quickly!

Others might only be able to hunt a hundred monsters in a day, but with modern weapons, his speed was many times that of them. When he used his entire arsenal, he could even fight alone like an army. As long as he had enough ammunition, he could increase his status quickly.

That was why, despite only being an adventurer for twenty days, his status was already so high.

After sealing the status on Altair's back, Hestia jumped off his back, letting him sit down to put on some clothes.

When looking at Altair who was leisurely putting on clothes, then looking at the parchment paper containing Altair's status in his hand, Hestia could not help but complain.

"Every time I look at Altair-kun's skills, it always feels strange. The first skill I don't understand at all, and the last skill, although it expresses my love for Altair-kun, but why the skill name even Bear? How strange."

Should he tell her that it had nothing to do with her?

While putting on his clothes, Altair thought to himself, "Bear Power must be the power of Marchosius."

When he came to this world, he got the achievement of Becoming a Planeswalker, which gave him Tom's Body. After becoming an adventurer, he got the achievement of Becoming an Adventurer, which gave him Wolf Wisdom. And after becoming part of the Hestia Familia, he got the Becoming a Familia Member achievement, which gave him Bear Power.

From the nature of the skill, Altair instantly realized what this was. This was the power of Marchosius from Genshin Impact that could shoot out flames!

When she first saw this skill, Hestia's head was full of question marks. She really couldn't understand why as the Goddess of the Hearth, her skill was related to bear.

"Well, I don't know how this Falna system works either. After all, I didn't invent it."

However, Hestia was not the type of person who liked to think about complicated things. After being a little confused, she ignored it. What was more important to her was the skill description, although it was a little strange because she had no connection with the Stove to earn the nickname God of the Stove, but who cared? It still made her very happy. What did this mean? It meant that her love for Altair was so deep!

Her love for Altair made Altair gain a new skill. What did this mean? It meant that Altair loved her too.

"Altair-kun, you're amazing!"

With great happiness, Hestia hugged Altair who had finished dressing.

"Thank you for the compliments, my dear wife."

Altair rubbed Hestia's small head pressed against his chest, then glanced at his watch. He had made a mechanical watch for himself to easily see the time while underground.

"My dear wife, while we still have time, let's go to Hephaestus' shop. I need to replenish supplies, and after that we're out to celebrate! What do you think?"

"Yay! Let's celebrate, Altair-kun!"
