CA : 4 Nemesis
🕑 Added 2024-10-27 04:34:07 +0000 UTCHostess of Fertility, one of the most famous restaurants in Orario, is always filled with adventurers because of its all-girl waitresses and exquisite food. Some powerful Familias often choose this place to gather. However, the food was also quite expensive, so Hestia had never been able to come here before unless someone else paid for it.
But now that she had a Familia member, she no longer needed an invitation. Altair, a loyal Familia member, always came home with a lot of results every time he went to the dungeon. On his first try, he produced tens of thousands of valis, then it increased to hundreds of thousands until it now reached millions of valis.
This income made Hestia who was once poor now live more comfortably.
"Hmph, Hephaestus, today you are free to order anything, my treat!"
"Oh? Really? Free to order anything?"
"That's right, order freely, today you can eat as much as you want!"
"Looks like Altair made your life a lot better, then I won't refuse."
At the entrance of the Hostess of Fertility, Hestia confidently patted her plump chest while speaking to the burgundy short-haired woman behind her.
The burgundy-haired woman was Hephaestus, the Goddess of Smithing, and Hestia's best friend in Heaven. When they first arrived in the human world, Hestia lived dependent on Hephaestus' help.
However, after Hestia started working on her own as a waitress in a potato puff shop, her life was very difficult. But now, after Altair started depositing her earnings, Hestia was able to live much better, and could even now confidently pat her chest and invite others to eat.
After leaving her Familia's headquarters, Hestia and Altair stopped by Hephaestus' weapon shop. As the Goddess of Smithing, the members of the Hephaestus Familia consisted of many blacksmiths who made weapons for sale throughout Orario, even including magic swords.
The materials Altair needed to make firearms were mostly purchased from Hephaestus, and even the first batch of materials was borrowed, which was later repaid after Altair got the proceeds from the dungeon.
After refilling the supplies in Hephaestus' shop, Hestia happily invited Hephaestus to celebrate together at the Hostess of Fertility.
"Hi, Mia, good evening!"
Hestia entered the restaurant first and confidently waved at the owner behind the counter.
"Oh, Hestia-sama, good evening. How many people are there?"
"Three people!"
Hestia put her left hand on her waist and raised three fingers with her right hand.
"Three people huh, Ryuu!"
"Coming!"
The blonde elf maid, Ryuu Lyon, appeared and led Hestia and her friends to their table.
Hephaestus, seeing how arrogant Hestia was, smiled a little and then glanced at Altair who was following behind them. Altair only smiled, understanding what Hephaestus meant. After all, Hestia who had lived a simple life was now used to luxuries, and it was natural for her to become a little arrogant.
"Keep spoiling her." Hephaestus said while shaking her head with a smile. Altair just shrugged and followed.
The restaurant was already quite full as they arrived rather late. Fortunately, there were only three of them, so there was no need for a large table.
However, not long before Hestia sat down, someone came over.
"Oh, this is the chibi huh? Long time no see."
A woman with simple red ponytail hair and slanted eyes walked over.
"It's you again, the flatboard!"
Hestia instantly recognized the voice. No need to look, she knew that it was her nemesis, Loki.
The two strongest Familia in Orario at the moment were the Freya Familia and the Loki Familia. Freya Familia had the strongest adventurers with level 7, while Loki Familia had the most number of level 6 adventurers.
"Say that again, you poor chibi!"
Loki should have come to taunt, but Hestia immediately counterattacked, making Loki so angry that a vein appeared on her forehead.
"Say it one more time, you flatboard."
"You bastard!"
Even though Loki was the goddess of the strongest Familia, she immediately attacked, pulling Hestia's hair and starting to fight. Hestia was not to be outdone, grabbing Loki's face. The fight between the goddesses immediately attracted the attention of other guests who were enthusiastic about watching.
Fighting between goddesses was rare.
"Ha~"
Hephaestus, who was used to this, could only sigh, because every time they met, there would definitely be a fight. Their physical difference was so obvious, Hestia was small but had a beautiful body, while Loki was tall but... yes, flat. It was an insurmountable class difference!
"Riveria!"
In a state of desperation, Hephaestus summoned Riveria, the vice captain of the Loki Familia, a level 6 elven adventurer with long green hair who always took care of Loki. Quickly, she appeared at Loki's side and struck her on the head with her staff.
"Argh!"
Loki, who was in pain, immediately let go of Hestia. Altair, who was ready, immediately lifted Hestia from under his arm, keeping the chibi goddess out of Loki's reach. Even though she knew who was pulling her, Hestia still did not want to lose and still wanted to fight.
"Altair-kun, put me down! I have to teach this flatboard a lesson!"
"Huh? Poor Chibi, I'll teach you a lesson... argh!"
Before Loki could finish her sentence, Riveria hit her on the head again, making her stop talking.
"You guys, every time you meet, you fight. Aren't you tired?"
Hephaestus, playing the role of mediator, stood between the two goddesses while girdling her loins.
"Oh, Hephaestus, it's been a while."
An instant before still arguing with Hestia, Loki immediately turned cheerful and greeted Hephaestus in a friendly manner.
After greeting, Loki looked at Altair, a handsome man she had never seen before. His figure caught Loki's attention.
"Oh~~ what a handsome guy, is this your new child Hephaestus?"
"Unfortunately not."
Hephaestus shook her head.
"Although I wish Altair was a member of my Familia, unfortunately, he is Hestia's new child."
"That's right! Altair-kun is a member of my Familia!"
Hestia, who had already descended, proudly stuck out her chest at Loki, startling the rival goddess into opening her normally slanted eyes.
"You're joking, right? You actually managed to get a Familia member!"
