It was an ordinary morning, Bell thought.
With Eiji's armor and gauntlets, he was more confident to explore the dungeon again.
After saying goodbye to his goddess, Hestia, whose attitude had beco more distant from him since she returned from the Seiya Familia house.
Bell smiled wryly, he was a little unhappy but continued with his plan to go to the tower of Babel.
He was not alone, there were also Lili and Welf. They had agreed to continue forming the party.
However, on the way, he didn't expect to run into the woman he liked!
Bell couldn't help but feel nervous, and stutteringly greeted her. "H-Hey, Ais-san!"
At that mont, he instantly regretted it.
Why did he stamr!?
Lili and Welf stopped walking because of what their leader was doing. The forr felt annoyed, and looked at the beautiful blonde woman in front of them jealously.
Not only because Bell seed to like her, but also because her figure was better than hers.
"Umm?" Ais was actually eating a bag of Jagamarukun, it was a popular potato snack in Orario that she bought on the street. She was eating it while walking towards her familia's house, but a rather familiar man greeted her. To be honest, she couldn't even rember his na.
She just nodded and expressionlessly said, "Hey."
"!!!"
Bell felt very happy that the woman he liked returned his greeting. His face flushed, he ventured to ask, "Ais-san, where are you going? Aren't you planning to go to the dungeon?"
His voice trembled, he couldn't calm down at all when talking to Ais.
Welf massaged his forehead and complained in his heart: Calm down, Bell! When talking to your crush, you have to show your manliness!
That's what he thought, but he himself hadn't realized the woman he liked, Hephaestus, had slept with another man not long ago.
He kept procrastinating to see her, because he was thinking of how to confess to her.
"Back to the familia house and no, I don't plan on going to the dungeon." Ais frowned slightly when answering.
With the current level of relationship between her and Bell, she didn't need to ntion about the training she had recently done at Seiya Familia, right?
Today, she was also planning to visit the Seiya Familia house again.
"O-Oh! Unfortunately, we were actually planning to go to the dungeon. If you also want to go to the dungeon, we might be able to go together." Bell shyly said.
He hoped Ais would change her mind and decide to co with them, she could join their party.
But he was destined to be disappointed.
"Good luck."
Ais only said that before she walked past them. From start to finish, she never ntioned Bell and the others' nas.
Bell didn't realize the woman he liked didn't even rember his na. He was already very happy just being able to exchange a few words with her.
"Bell-sama, you idiot!"
"Ehhh!? Lili, why are you calling an idiot!?"
"I just wanted to do it!"
"...?"
Bell was confused, he glanced back to see Ais' back in the distance for a mont before telling them to move on.
Lili pouted, she was disappointed and wondered if Bell was unaware of her feelings?
Was what Eiji said in the inner voice true? Bell only had Ais in his eyes. For her sake, he would reject any other woman, even the Beauty Goddess Freya was one of the won he would reject.
That made Lili feel inferior, she seed to have no hope. The liking for Bell decreased by several points, although she still liked him, she was now too lazy to be clingy to him.
If Eiji knew this, he would not react and continue to wait for the developnt he wanted. Lili was not ugly, but also not very beautiful. He didn't pay much attention to her.
But, he wouldn't refuse if she betrayed Bell for his sake. Ahem!
Speaking of the developnt he was referring to, it finally happened.
On the first floor of the tower of Babel.
Just when Bell and his party had registered to enter the dungeon and ended a conversation with one of the receptionists, Eina. Unlike in the original work, Eina's attitude towards Bell was not over the top and was still on a professional level.
"White-haired man, wait a minute!"
A masculine voice was heard by them, and Bell was sure that the other party was calling out to him.
He turned his head only to be surprised when his gaze t that of a handso blond-haired man who looked like a condensed sun.
Bell wasn't sure why, but his heart that wasn't even beating fast when he t Ais before—now it was the opposite!
He could hear his own heartbeat, and was horrified.
What's going on!?
Why do I feel so disgusted! But it's hard for to hate that guy. I actually feel... quite fond of him.
"Hello, I am the Sun God, Apollo. From your appearance, you're the popular rookie these days, Bell Cranel, right?"
Apollo walked over with so of his familia mbers behind him. He smiled, and his gaze on Bell was unusual.
Bell reflexively took a step back and nodded, "It's ... Apollo-sama."
"Bell-kun, you caught my attention."
"?!"
What does it an that I caught your attention?
Bell was a good person, but hearing Apollo's words, he felt like punching him in the face.
However, he restrained himself and forced a smile. The surrounding adventurers who looked at him as if he was pathetic didn't help either, it confused him.
What's wrong!?
"Bell-kun, how about you join my familia?" Apollo asked while placing one of his on Bell's shoulder.
Bell gasped, he felt disgusted and wanted to brush his hand away before answering. Although, his body was more honest. His cheeks were flushed, which made Lili widen her eyes in disbelief.
It was natural for her to lose to Ais, but how could she...!
How could Bell react like that because of Apollo!?
Bell's image in Lili's heart was shattered, she no longer liked him and only felt a little disgusted towards him.
"S-Sorry! Apollo-sama, I have joined the Hestia Familia. And I don't plan to move to any other familia."
Bell tried to politely decline Apollo's invitation.
Apollo frowned. When he first saw Bell, he felt very attracted to him and wanted him.
There was no way he was giving up just because he refused!
'Bell-kun, you must be mine!'
...
"Hahaha!" Eiji burst out laughing.
He had just returned to Orario, and he wasn't alone. There was also Artemis and her familia mbers who had co with him.
Artemis looked at the man who had slept with her last night strangely, "Eiji, what are you laughing at?"
A while ago, after having breakfast together, Eiji invited her and her familia mbers to go to Orario with him.
Artemis had agreed on the grounds that her familia needed to replenish their supplies. Here they were now.
"Nothing, I just suddenly thought that a hero doesn't necessarily end up with a beautiful woman. Maybe... he'll get together with another man."
"???" Not only Artemis, Lante and the other won were confused.
Eiji didn't explain the details because it was disgusting, and he was worried that P-san was also sensitive to that kind of thing.
However, if you asked how he knew what happened to Bell. Simple, he just shared a look with one of the shadow warriors he hid in Lili's shadow.
[The love story of the protagonist and Apollo has just begun! Ais is a bit pathetic, but that's okay... I'll take responsibility for being your hero!]
Eiji wants to be her hero?
Ais wasn't sure why he suddenly said that, but she was happy.
[By the way, I've killed Antares and saved Artemis from her tragic fate. I've changed the ending.]
[She and her familia mbers have now arrived in Orario. Instead of letting them rent rooms at the inn, I should invite them to stay at my familia's house.]
[Sooner or later, we'll beco family too. It's natural.]
No, it's not natural!
Artemis wanted to say that, but she realized that she couldn't seem to say anything that would let Eiji know she could hear his inner voice.
"Eiji-sama, Artemis-sama, you two can take a walk together. I and the others will find an inn and shop for our needs." Rethusa said that.
But Eiji imdiately stopped her, "About the inn, why not turn it into my familia's residence for a while? There are many empty bedrooms there."
"Eiji, that's too much trouble for you. We—" Artemis was about to refuse, not because she hated Eiji, but she really did not want to inconvenience him and feel embarrassed to stay with him.
Eiji glanced at Lante.
Lante understood and interrupted her goddess's words, "Thank you Eiji-sama! That's very kind of you! It will save us the cost of a rather expensive inn. Then, we'll just go shopping! Ladies, let's go!
"OOOHHHH!"
As if having a tacit understanding, Rethusa and the others imdiately left their goddess.
"Hey, don't just leave your goddesses behind! I... I haven't even agreed yet!" Artemis shouted but none of her familia mbers looked back.
She wanted to chase after them, but her hand was grabbed by soone. Her face instantly heated up, and she glanced at the man beside her in confusion.
"E-Eiji, let go of ."
"Artemis, I've decided what I want from you. You said you owed a favor and would do anything. Then..."
"You, you, in this situation... What do you want?" Artemis was nervous, but she gave up on resisting and did not even remove Eiji's hand from her.
Her cheeks began to turn red.
Eiji smiled and said, "This is easy for you. Let's go on a date before reuniting with your familia mbers."
"Date!? You said date!? I, I..." Artemis was so shocked that she didn't know what to say.
Should she refuse?
But Eiji's request wasn't really too much, and she also quite liked him because he might actually be her Orion.
"A-All right."
The blue-haired goddess agreed shyly.
"Yosh, but before leaving... Just to make sure, I can still make another request later, right?" Eiji shalessly said.
"You...! Eiji, don't be too much!"
"So it's fine as long as it's not too much, right?"
"...Do as you like."
Artemis was helpless, but whether it was out of reciprocation or her own feelings for the man, she did not refuse.
Eiji was happy, he did not hesitate to pull Artemis along and walk hand in hand. He took her to popular food shops including Jagamarukun, and bought her so clothes, especially sexy evening dresses.
Artemis initially wanted to refuse, she felt her virginity was in danger if she wore such revealing clothes, but Eiji skillfully made her unable to refuse.
He said, "You will stay at my familia's house for a while. Having more nightgowns is a good thing. You can also take this as my request, you can't refuse."
Coercion!
That was coercion!
Artemis laughed and cried in her heart, she had no other choice but to agree. She enjoyed the so-called date even though she did not admit it, but her body seed to no longer belong to her.
Eiji was so... he took her to various places and she could not refuse.
"At first I thought I saw it wrong... But I didn't expect it to be really you, Artemis! Long ti no see. One of the famous Virgin Goddesses in heaven like you, seems to be on a date~ Many male gods will surely be surprised and so of them heartbroken."
Coincidentally, when they were about to exit the shopping area, they t Loki who was walking with three of her familia mbers; Ais, Riveria and Lefiya.
The won were surprised to see Eiji, but were not familiar with Artemis. They recognized her only because Loki ntioned her identity.
"Loki!? You... Hmph! What's wrong with dating, it's none of your business!" Artemis did not expect that she and Eiji were dating.
Of course, she knew Loki because she was a goddess like her. Their relationship was neither good nor bad.
But put that aside. Eiji did not expect the previously shy Artemis to not deny that they were dating.
As expected of him.
It must be because of his charm.
[You an your harem halo, right host?]
"...." Eiji.
He greeted Ais, Riveria, and Lefiya, and started talking to them while the two goddesses faced each other.
"Huh? That's really none of my business, I just wanted to tease you and coincidentally, I have business with the guy you're dating."
Loki pointed at Eiji who was flirting with her familia mbers.
"Ais, Riveria, and Lefiya. Perfect timing, today I'm planning to throw a small party to welco Artemis' arrival. Would you guys like to stop by my familia's house? There's plenty of delicious food that I made myself."
"I will."
"If Ais is coming, so am I!"
"Eiji-sama, we were actually planning to visit your familia's house..."
"Is that so, Riveria? That's good. By the way, you look pretty today too."
"Eiji-sama, please don't tease !"
Riveria blushed.
Loki's lips twitched, she felt green and wanted to reprimand Eiji.
But Artemis raised her eyebrows and asked, "What is your business with Eiji?"
Without realizing it, she was acting like a girlfriend who wanted to know another woman's business with her man.
Loki was not happy with Artemis' tone, she opened her eyes slightly and grinned. "What do you think, what business do I have with an extrely handso god like him?"
Artemis was stunned, but then, she glanced at Loki's chest and gave her a mocking look. "Oh, I see."
"Hey, where are you looking!? Artemis, are you looking down on ? Just like Hestia, Virgin Goddesses like you guys are annoying."
Veins bulging on Loki's forehead, she gritted her teeth and pointed at Artemis' nose.
Artemis folded her hands under her large breasts and because of her figure being taller than Loki, she looked down on the tomboyish goddess.
Loki's anger increased.
Before the two goddesses fought on the street, Eiji naturally embraced Artemis' soft shoulders. "Alright, let's go together to my familia's house. But before that, let's gather with Artemis' familia mbers first."
Do you need to touch when you say that?
Artemis was embarrassed, but she tried to keep her composure in front of Loki.
Loki wondered how Eiji could make a goddess who famously disliked n behave like that. In her heart, she was amazed.
This man is very dangerous.
She had to protect Ais-chan, Lefiya-chan, and Riveria from him!
...
At Seiya Familia's house.
The group led by Eiji finally arrived at the place. While the mbers of the Artemis Familia admired the place, especially Loki—she envied him because he managed to make the house his familia ho.
"Eiji...-sama, welco back." Artoria was the one who welcod them.
Beside her, Haruhi also said, "Eiji-sama, you ca back later than you said yesterday."
The blonde fox smiled, but she was obviously a little dissatisfied that her husband was gone longer than he had said.
Eiji pretended to cough, "Ahem! Artoria, Haruhi. Sorry, it took longer to get back because I was camping with Artemis and her familia mbers after saving them from an ancient monster."
"An ancient monster? Sounds like a powerful monster." Loki was curious.
But the three mbers of her familia roughly knew that Eiji had gone sowhere just to prevent Artemis from coming to a tragic end like in the original work. Unlike Loki, they could hear his inner voice.
Even so, Ais also wanted to know how strong Antares was.
"To , that monster is actually nothing more than a giant scorpion. It would probably take a group of level 6 and 7 adventurers to defeat it."
"In other words, that monster is comparable to a high-level floor boss! Before you and your familia appeared in Orario, only my familia and Freya Familia could defeat it." Loki made an analysis based on what Eiji said.
And this guy seed to defeat such a powerful monster all by himself?
Eiji enjoyed the admiring gazes of Ais and the other beauties.
"Wait, aren't you a god!? You shouldn't be able to use your divine power in—" Loki didn't finish her words.
He interrupted her, "That's not important. For now, hurry in. Artoria, tell dusa to prepare a bedroom for Artemis and her familia mbers."
Hearing her man's excited-sounding orders, Artoria made an expression that resembled a emoticon.
In one day, Eiji didn't just bring ho one goddess. He also brought ho mbers of her familia that only contained won with him.
