In the main room of the church, which served as the living room. Eiji and Asfi sat side by side on a rather tattered sofa.
From the direction of the kitchen which was quite far away, Hestia walked over and placed two glasses of water on the wooden table.
Then, she sat on the sofa opposite to them.
"Please drink!"
Asfi was not thirsty, but she still drank the glass of water on the table wordlessly.
While Eiji? He drank until the water in the glass was gone and comnted, "Not bad, tastes like plain water."
That's because you did drink plain water.
Asfi complained in her heart.
"Thanks! So, what exactly are you visiting for, Eiji?" Hestia took the comnt from the man in front of her as a complint to her hospitality.
She also couldn't believe he was just visiting her without any other purpose.
Eiji did not answer right away, he looked at the main room of the church which was quite spacious, but did not have much furniture and the wall paint color had faded. So corners of the walls had even grown moss.
It looked even worse than the original work. Hestia really lived here? She's so pathetic and should find a man who can support her properly!
[And who is that?]
It's of course.
Miss System was not surprised and continued watching this episode in silence.
"Before that. Where's Bell?" Eiji asked about the protagonist.
"Bell-kun? This morning, he had gone to the dungeon again with Lili and Welf." Hestia said with a helpless expression.
After the tough battle against Black Goliath on the 18th floor yesterday, she told him to take a few days' vacation and spend more ti with his goddess, but he refused and insisted on returning to the dungeon to increase his level.
By the way, Bell is currently a level 2 adventurer in the original work, although he didn't imdiately beco level 3 after killing the Black Goliath due to his divided excelia with the other adventurers.
The increase in his stats still made him satisfied and didn't mind taking a few days of vacation while spending a lot of ti with his goddess. But now, his stats had only increased slightly because Eiji was the one who killed the Black Goliath.
That made Bell have a stronger urgency to imdiately return to the Dungeon and gain a lot of excelia from killing monsters.
However, Bell would probably regret it in the future because when he was busy in the dungeon, soone would seize the opportunity to woo his goddess.
The corners of Eiji's lips lifted higher, "Bell is very hardworking. He will definitely grow into a very strong adventurer in less ti than other adventurers."
"Eh, yeah... Bell-kun, is indeed a hard worker!" Hestia was rather pleased that Eiji seed to praise her family mbers.
Her favorable impression of him increased by one point just because of that.
Even so, she was confused as to why Eiji was so confident in Bell's ability to level up.
From his inner voice, he seed to know a lot about Bell from his so-called original work. But, was there sothing else that made him say what he just said?
[I rember Bell has a unique and passive skill called Liaris Freese. This skill automatically increases his status growth speed drastically based on the feelings of love he has for soone.]
[The power of the effect corresponds to the level of the user's feelings. As a side effect, it makes the user immune to spells. But from the beginning to the end of the series... The object of Bell's love was only that blonde woman, Ais Wallenstein.]
[In order to beco a man worthy of her, he leveled up at a speed that surpassed other adventurers.]
!?
Bell's passive skill was a secret that should only be known by her and Bell alone.
How did Eiji know!?
Hestia widened her eyes, she was now more and more convinced that the man in front of her was not joking about the things he said in his inner voice.
That ans Bell will also only continue to love Ais Wallenstein!?
Hestia's expression beca slightly ugly and her aura beca gloomy.
'Bell Cranel has such a strong skill?' Hearing Eiji's inner voice, Asfi was only surprised by this.
No wonder Eiji often referred to Bell as the protagonist.
That man had a cheating skill!
As long as he continued to obsess over Ais Wallenstein, he would level up at a rate that surpassed other adventurers.
"Hestia, what's with your expression? You seem to be upset. Have I said sothing wrong?" Eiji asked innocently.
Hestia gasped, she forced a smile and shook her head until her twin tails wagged. "No, there's nothing wrong with your words. I just suddenly rembered sothing... By the way, you haven't answered my previous question."
She wanted to say that she could hear his inner voice. But from yesterday, she realized she could not do so.
There was always a force preventing her.
Therefore, she had no other choice but to lie.
"About my visit here? It's true that I didn't just co to visit you because I missed you."
"Sorry, what did you just say!?" Hestia blushed.
Eiji missed her? She couldn't even detect a lie from him.
Maybe it was because he was a god.
But why would he miss her?
Asfi clenched her fists, she suddenly felt a little annoyed and drank so more water in her glass.
It tastes like plain water...
Eiji pretended to be deaf and continued his words, "I actually ca here to ask for your help, Hestia. I want you to show how to use Falna."
Although Hestia was not satisfied that Eiji ignored her question, she did not expect him to ask for her help for such a thing.
She curiously asked, "You want to know how to use Falna? I don't mind, but what will you do after knowing it?"
Eiji casually replied, "I'll make a Familia."
"You're going to make a Familia!?"
"Is that so surprising?"
Hestia shook her head, "No, it's just that... I didn't expect a god from another universe like you would be interested in making a familia, Eiji."
Eiji blinked his eyes.
Hestia folded her hands under her large breasts, she did not realize that his gaze was often on them.
She then explained how the gods or goddesses in this world used Falna.
Gods or Goddesses used Falna/God's Blessing by transferring a small portion of their divine essence into the bodies of humans or other races through their blood.
Before she continued her explanation, Eiji interrupted with an unexpected question.
"Can we also use other liquids besides blood?"
What about his yogurt? Eiji refrained from asking explicitly.
"Other liquids?" Hestia tilted her head in confusion, "As far as I know, we only use a drop of blood in every experint."
"Oh, okay. Continue."
"....." Hestia and Asfi.
They felt Eiji was thinking sothing dirty, but they had no proof.
His inner voice was not even audible at the mont.
Hestia continued her explanation of the steps or how Falna worked. First, the gods would drip a little of their blood (ichor) onto the backs of their prospective Family mbers. This blood serves as a catalyst to unlock the latent potential in the person's soul. Secondly, after the blood is dripped, the Familia symbol will appear on the person's back along with a line of hieroglyphic text (the language of the Gods) detailing their Status, including level, basic attributes (Strength, Endurance, Dexterity, Agility, Magic), skills, and magic.
After that, it can be considered complete and if the status owner wants to see their own status, the god will translate the row of hieroglyphic text on their back and write it down on a paper.
Furthermore, there are also status updates. Deities must regularly perform the sa ritual to update the status of their mbers. They would look at the accumulated Excelia gained from fighting, training or killing monsters, and convert it into a nurical statistic upgrade.
"Only the gods can trigger a level-up after their mbers reach certain conditions. Usually at least one of the attributes at rank D and have perford an extraordinary achievent or high feat. Of course, their mbers can also delay leveling up so that they can maximize their other attribute ranks. However, it is very difficult for anyone to maximize their status because each individual has their own strengths and weaknesses."
Hestia spoke slowly and softly, Eiji enjoyed hearing her voice and about the things she said, he actually already knew from the original work.
Hestia also didn't forget to explain the details about the attribute rankings. Each was displayed with a rank and number 0-999. 0-99 is I, 100-199 is H, 200-299 is G, 300-399 is F, 400-499 is E, 500-599 is D, 600-699 is C, 700-799 is B, 800-899 is A, and 900-999 is S.
As for SS and SSS? Hestia didn't say. But Eiji knew these ranks were abnormal and almost no adventurers were able to maximize their attribute ranks to that extent.
Except for Bell who had skills like Liaris Freese and his aunt, Alfia. it was assud that the range was 1000-1199 for SS and 1200 for SSS.
"Immortals also have full control over the Falna they grant. They can seal a mber's status as punishnt or if the deity has to return to heaven, or put it into "conversion mode" so that the mber can move to another Family."
"After coming this far, have you understood, Eiji? I'd like to show you an example, but my only Familia mber, Bell, isn't here."
Hestia said that with a slightly regretful expression.
Eiji shook his head, "That's fine, your explanation is enough for . Now I have an idea of how to use Falna."
"Really? But Eiji, do you even know the language that only the gods or goddesses in this world use? If you don't know, I can—"
Hestia was actually quite eager to teach Eiji the language of the gods, hieroglyphics.
But Eiji had other ideas until he said, "I don't know, but I'll replace it with another language."
"???" Not only Hestia, Asfi also doubted what they had just heard.
"After all, the reason the gods in this world use hieroglyphics in Falna is simply because of privacy concerns, right? It's also so that their familia mbers can only get back to them to do status updates or sothing."
In short, it was so that the gods could better control their familia mbers.
It also minimized the possibility of betrayal to them.
"This... I can't deny it." Hestia replied awkwardly.
Asfi was speechless.
"In my case, I should be able to make sothing like Falna but in the language of the place where I live."
Hearing what Eiji said, Hestia and Asfi were amazed that he was able to think of that.
Hestia said, "Really? I want to see it in person!"
"Sure, I don't mind showing it to you, Hestia."
[After all, we'll be family in the future.]
Hestia: ?
This man, Eiji. Can he stop saying things that could make people misunderstand!?
"Umm... Eiji-sama."
"Yes, Asfi?"
Eiji glanced at the beautiful light blue-haired woman sitting beside him.
Asfi asked, "Do you even have a prospective mber for your family yet?"
She thought Eiji didn't have one.
Since yesterday, he was living in her Familia's house.
When would he have ti to find mbers for his own family?
But Eiji smiled slightly and replied, "I have it."
"Who?" Asfi and Hestia were curious.
They didn't know, but long before this. Eiji already had many prospective mbers for his familia.
[Host, don't tell your prospective Familia mbers are your harem mbers?]
"That's right, Miss System."
Miss System was silent.
A few seconds later, under everyone's curious gaze. Eiji had selected a few people in his mind. At least for now, they were the only ones he would summon.
He snapped his fingers, several magic circles connected to the Master-Servant contract appeared on the floor.
Asfi and Hestia were surprised because before their eyes, four very beautiful won appeared and looked around curiously.
One of them asked Eiji, "Master, where is the enemy?"
"There are no enemies here, dusa. You can relax, no need to be vigilant."
Of his harem mbers, dusa was the one he summoned. With her usual eye patch, her tall and very voluptuous figure, she nodded after hearing her master's words.
Oh, and her man.
"What about these two won, Eiji? Are they our future new sisters or our new sisters?" That cold but sowhat seductive voice ca from a woman in a black bodysuit.
"Skadi, that's the first one."
"Your speed seems to be a little lower than usual."
"Ehem! I'm not in a hurry." Eiji pretended to cough.
Scáthach glanced at Asfi and Hestia with a small smile and introduced her na to them.
dusa did the sa.
The other two won Eiji called were...
"Hello, ladies. I'm Artoria Pendragon, nice to et you." Like a knight, Artoria Saber bowed slightly to Alfi and Hestia who still looked surprised.
Among the other won, she was the most polite.
What about the last one?
Artoria frowned and glared at the woman beside her, "Morgan, introduce yourself properly."
"Don't order your big sister, Artoria."
"You..."
Satisfied with Artoria's annoyed expression, a white-haired woman dressed as a witch, reluctantly introduced herself to the two won sitting with her husband.
"I'm Morgan le Fay, since you two are future sisters, just call Morgan."
She smiled faintly, there was arrogance on her fairy-like face and she naturally sat on Eiji's other side.
She even hugged one of his arms and asked, "My husband, did you miss ?"
Leave aside why they were called sisters, but husband!?
The way Morgan called Eiji made Asfi and Hestia flinch. They had no idea that the man was married!
"I miss you and the others. By the way, the woman beside is Asfi Al Androda, and the woman in front of is a goddess, Hestia."
While enjoying the softness of Morgan who pressed his arm, Eiji casually introduced the two won he was referring to.
He also explained to Artoria, Morgan and the other two about why he had summoned them.
For information about the Danmachi world, he directly transferred it through the Master-Servant contract.
The four won imdiately understood and were slightly surprised by the various things that existed in that world.
For example, the existence of dungeons under the city of Orario, adventurers and gods with nas similar to the gods in their world.
"Wait, wait! Eiji-sama, are you married?" After a while, Asfi could not resist asking.
It wasn't that she was jealous, she herself didn't know why she wanted to confirm that. Eiji was a god, she thought it was natural that he already had a wife.
But...
"Legally, I'm not married. But these four won are my won. They are mbers of my harem."
"Harem!?" Asfi raised her voice, her glasses almost falling off.
"Ooooh!" Hestia exclaid, she glanced at the four won Eiji referred to one by one and felt they were unusual.
Or rather, the aura they exuded was enough to tell her that they must be strong.
Still, where did they co from? They didn't seem to be from Orario or even this world.
"Yes, I summoned them from my universe."
Draconic Deus to be precise.
A few monts ago, the won happened to be relaxing in his house. Sensing his call, none of them refused to co to his side.
Eiji originally thought of calling Lala, Rias, Sona and a few other won. But given their large bellies from having been pregnant for several months, he would probably call them after he made his condition in this world more stable.
First of all, he did not even have a fixed residence in Orario yet. He would have to solve that problem soon.
"You can summon them here, but you can't go back?" Hestia rembered that Eiji had said he couldn't return to his universe for a while.
Eiji was stunned and hurriedly said, "Let's get started right away. I'll show you the Falna I created."
Hey, you changed the subject!
You did it on purpose, right?
Hestia pouted and puffed up her cheeks, but gave up on asking further.
Eiji stood up and had the four won line up in front of him.
"Alright, take off your clothes."
"....." The won.
Even Asfi and Hestia looked at him flatly.
Eiji's face was as thick as a wall, he was not ashad of being misunderstood as a pervert even though it was not wrong.
And it was obviously so that he could drip his blood on the backs of those won, okay? He has no other intention!
...
A/N: A little vent. Sotis I'm sad when I see top 10 or top 20 fanfic rankings that are heavily sided with translators, not real authors. And is it just or do the forr now outnumber the latter? Every ti I think I'm competing with translators... My motivation to write sotis suffers because of that.
