Ultimate Being from the Tokonosu City

Chapter 134: Good Boy

"Welcome back, Isao-kun!" 

Hestia leaped directly into him when she saw him~! 

"Wait, Hestia. I haven't taken a bath. Don't hug me like this." 

Isao tried to push Hestia away, but she clung to him even tighter, her affection overpowering his resistance. 

"It's fine. Your smell is still nice~!" 

Hestia sniffed his scent, which was mixed with his sweat, but even so, instead of feeling disgusted, she felt that this scent was dangerous~!

So, manly~!

"Hestia, you are troubling him!" 

Fortunately, the beautiful, slender, mature woman quickly pulled Hestia away from him. 

"Ah, Hephaestus! What are you doing?! Don't bother my lovey-dovey time with Isao-kun!" 

Hestia complained with all of her might, trying to fight, but Hephaestus became even more helpless. 

"Thank you for your help, er..." 

Watching his sincere and innocent expression, Hephaestus felt ashamed of her previous thoughts. She thought that this young man tried to do something bad to Hestia, but she realized that it should be the other way around. 

Using her mature breasts, Hestia seduced this young man to enter her Familia. 

As a goddess who had lived for eons, Hephaestus had thought of many perverted plots that happened between Hestia and Isao. 

"Hephaestus. That's my name." Hephaestus introduced herself politely and said, "I am your goddess's best friend." 

"Ah, I have heard about you from Hestia." Isao nodded. "Thank you for taking care of Hestia, Hephaestus-sama." 

"Huh? Why did you use "-sama" with Hephaestus?" Hestia stopped struggling with Hephaestus and looked at Isao with doubt. 

"You want me to call you "-sama"?" Isao asked curiously. 

"Hmm... well, just Hestia is fine." When Hestia thought that Isao would call her "-sama," she felt that there was a distance between them, so calling her name without a "-sama" suffix was fine. 

Only why did the proud Isao use "-sama" to call Hephaestus? 

If there was a reason, it was because it would be more fun when Isao pushed her down. 

No, that was wrong since, as a good person, such a dirty thought never crossed his mind. 

Instead, as Hephaestus had taken care of Hestia for so long when Hestia came to the lower world, Isao had to show his respect toward this beautiful goddess, and he had to be polite, especially—

[You have acquired Hephaestus's DNA.]

[Do you want to absorb it?]

"I will take a bath first. Let's have dinner after that." 

"Okay~!" Hestia nodded but then thought to follow him. Still, she endured it since her best friend was still there. "He is a good kid, right? You don't have to worry!" If there was a reason why Hephaestus came to visit her, it was because she was worried about her. While she was happy with Hephaestus's care, she felt that Hephaestus was too overprotective, and at the same time, she was afraid for Hephaestus to steal Isao, especially when compared to Hephaestus's Familia; her Familia was so poor. 

"You are right." Hephaestus nodded at Hestia's words. "He is a good kid, and it is a bit of a shame for you to have him..." 

"Don't steal him!" 

"I won't." Hephaestus rolled her eyes and said, "But then again, he is also a blacksmith, you know?" 

"Huh? Really? Is he a blacksmith? How can you tell?" Hestia was dumbfounded. 

Hephaestus rolled her eyes and asked, "Did you forget what kind of a god am I?" 

"....." Hestia. 

"...even though you aren't his goddess..." Hestia sulked, feeling beaten since Hephaestus knew more about Isao than she did. 

"He is also a skilled fighter," Hephaestus said, then asked, "Is he from the Far East?" 

"Yup." Hestia nodded, then asked, "What's wrong?" 

"No, did you forget that the captain of my Familia is also from the Far East?" 

"Now that you mention it..." Hestia only reacted to this and then asked, "Do you think they know each other?" 

"Probably not." Hephaestus shook her head and said, "Their age difference is quite huge. He is a young man, and my captain is about 30." 

"Oh, well, they don't know each other then." 

With such an age difference, Isao definitely didn't know the captain of Hephaestus Familia, but he didn't mind getting to know this captain. 

Nevertheless, with the coming of Hephaestus, the three decided to have dinner together, and this time, Isao decided to cook a noodle with an egg tomato sauce. 

While this dish also used a tomato like the pasta they had yesterday, it had a different taste. 

"Wow, it's simple but tastes good!" 

"You are right." 

Hephaestus looked at Isao and then at Hestia, feeling a bit jealous since Isao could cook well. Even though it was simple, she had never tasted it. Moreover, it also tasted good with alcohol. 

"Drink! Drink!" 

If there was a reason why Hestia could accept Hephaestus's visit easily, it was because Hephaestus decided to bring a lot of expensive alcohol with her. 

"Isao-kun, how about you drink too?" 

"No, I am not good with alcohol." 

"Huh? You don't want to receive my alcohol?" Hephaestus squinted her eyes at Isao. 

"Sorry, no. If possible, I want to avoid it." Isao didn't budge and rejected Hephaestus's offer to drink alcohol. 

"Hey, don't bully Isao-kun! If he doesn't want to drink, don't force him!" 

Hestia quickly stood in front of Isao to protect him. 

Hephaestus's lips twitched, feeling hurt since her best friend defended Isao, whom Hestia had only met for a day. 

What was the point of their eons-long friendship then?! 

"Right, I bought you a gift, Hestia." 

"Huh? Really?" 

Isao took out a box from his bag and gave it to Hestia. 

Hestia's face flushed red with excitement, and they opened the box. "Wo-Wow..." The one inside the box was the hair accessories that she had always wished to get. "This..?" 

"Just think of it as my thanks for inviting me to the Familia." 

"Isao-kun!" 

Hestia hugged him tightly and rubbed him against his face excitedly. 

"Don't hug me so suddenly. I am trying to eat." 

"How cold! You should be happy that you get a hug from a beautiful goddess like me!" Hestia cried, then looked at him like an excited puppy. "By the way, wear them for me~! Make the perfect twin tails for me~!" 

"Okay, okay. Sit there tight." 

"Um~!" 

Watching the interaction between Isao and Hestia, Hephaestus felt quite bitter about how close they were. Unlike Hestia, she didn't have an existence that could be loved like this. Still, subconsciously, she touched her eyepatch and shook her head. 

"What do you think? What do you think?" 

"Cute." 

"Really? How cute?" 

"The cutest in the world." Isao rolled his eyes. "If you are satisfied, then go sit and eat. It won't be good if it's cold." 

"Um~!" 

"Still, aren't those hair accessories expensive? Do you have enough money for that?" Hephaestus suddenly asked, causing Hestia to feel worried, wondering whether it was okay. 

Isao didn't say anything and only took out a bundle of money on the table. 

"...." 2x

"My first-day income in the dungeon." 

"...." 2x

Still, Isao was trying to be low-key, so he only showed two million Valis. 

Watching this money, Hestia was dumbfounded before she looked at Hephaestus proudly. 

'Look! My Isao-kun is amazing!' 

"....." Hephaestus

"How did you do? Or rather, how was your first day in the dungeon?" Hestia asked. 

Isao didn't hide anything and told him about his first day in the dungeon, telling them how he could get so much money. 

His story was fun and engaging, and their happiest was Hestia, so she drank a lot of alcohol before she fell asleep. 

"Hestia, Hestia." 

"Isao-kun..." Hestia murmured in her sleep with a happy face. 

"...." 

Isao wanted to update his status, but watching this goddess of his, who slept after drinking so much alcohol, he became helpless and decided to move her to the bed. 

Hephaestus didn't say anything and slowly sipped her wine while watching Isao, who moved Hestia softly to the bed. Watching his eyes that were only filled with helplessness, she couldn't help but ask, "Have you never thought of sleeping with her?" 

"...you sure straight to the point, Hephaestus-sama." Isao was speechless. 

"It can't be helped since she is attractive, right? But then, I don't see that you feel that lust toward her, or you don't have confidence in that area?" Hephaestus teased with a naughty smile. 

"She isn't my type," Isao said calmly, ignoring Hephaestus's provocation.

"Oh? What is your type?" Hephaestus asked curiously. 

"Someone like you." Isao decided to make an offense and sat close to Hephaestus. 

However, Hephaestus didn't falter, and she was as sturdy as the city wall. Looking at him calmly, she took off her eyepatch, showing the deformity behind it. "Can you say that again after looking at this?" 

It was probably due to alcohol because she was frustrated watching how close Isao and Hestia were or because of Isao's advances. 

Nevertheless, no matter what the reason was, Hephaestus decided to show her inferiority to Isao, who tried to provoke her, wondering whether she could say the same thing after he looked at this. 

Yet, after this, she felt regret since she made this move without much thought. 

However—

"Beautiful." 

"...are you mocking me?" Hephaestus frowned at Isao. "How can you say this ugly face is beautiful?"

Isao shook his head and said, "Your face isn't ugly. It's a pretty face carrying a clean soul." 

"..."

Hephaestus blinked her eyes, staring at him quietly before she moved closer. 

This young man was dangerous, and she had to take care of him before he put his claws into her best friend. 

'You don't have to worry, Hestia.' 

As Hestia's best friend, Hephaestus had to do this. 

---

Tonight, Hestia got a good night's sleep and a good dream, especially after she got Isao. She thought that her future was bright and there would be many exciting days with him. 

Yet, unlike Hestia, Hephaestus seemed to be in pain. Her eyebrows furrowed, and she kept leaking out a cry of anguish. Her beautiful face was sweaty, causing her crimson hair to stick to her forehead, and her body was all tense before she tried to hold her scream as she didn't want to wake up Hestia. 

"Hmn~!" 

Fortunately, Isao was there, accompanying Hephaestus, who was in pain and even gave her a deep injection to cure her. 

While the process was quite long, after Isao's treatment, Hephaestus had a good night's sleep. 

Watching the two beautiful goddesses who slept next to each other peacefully, Isao once again thought that she had done a good thing in this world.
