Dragon Ball: Saiyan's Gourmet Journey

Chapter 674 Bell's Notes: So, to open the palace, you have to be forceful...

"Bang~"

Hestia's head hit the table.

"Pap~"

Another person picked up a crab leg and dropped it back into the plate.

"Pfft~"

The one-eyed craftsman spat out the wine he had just drunk.

"Cough cough~"

Even Hephaestus, the god of craftsmanship, choked on his saliva and coughed violently.

Broly, are you just playing your cards right now?

Bell stared at the boy.

"Broly, you've fallen for someone else! You no longer love me, your god, but another girl?!"

Hestia looked up and asked with teary eyes.

"I've fallen for someone else? I haven't."

However, Broly shook his head at Hestia's statement, indicating that he had not fallen for her.

"But didn't you say you were going to confess to other girls?"

Hestia looked over in confusion.

"Yes, he confessed."

Broly nodded.

"Isn't that just falling in love with someone else?"

What does confessing your feelings to someone else have to do with falling in love with someone else?

Broly asked, puzzled.

At the dinner table, Chun, Nazha, Hestia, and Hephaestus were all a little confused.

"Broly, may I ask you, what was your reason for confessing your feelings to Miss Lily Luca? Was it because of your sympathy for her?"

The dog-woman girl, Nazha, raised her hand and asked the question.

"No, it wasn't out of pity. Lily was also a woman I wanted to meet, and she didn't betray me and Belle, which made me admire her and want to bring her back, so I confessed to her."

Broly explained.

"Ahem, Broly, so the person you liked before was Lady Hestia, right?"

The one-eyed craftsman Chun coughed and asked.

"Yeah, that's right."

The boy nodded.

"Now that you like another girl and have confessed your feelings to her, that's called falling in love with someone else."

Because you transferred your affection for Lady Hestia to other girls.

Chun started explaining things to the boy, even though she was someone who was obsessed with forging and had no experience in dating.

But have you never seen a pig run, or eaten pork?

She can articulate a lot about this kind of reasoning.

"No, Miss Tsubaki, you're not right."

"Ah, something's not right here?"

The one-eyed craftsman looked at him with a puzzled expression.

"I did not transfer my affection for Lady Hestia to Lily."

However, even while he was falling for Lily, he still harbored feelings for Lady Hestia.

Broly was very serious as he corrected the mistakes in her words.

"Wait, you still like Lady Hestia even when you like other girls, so what do you mean?"

"I didn't mean anything by it, I was just being honest with Lady Hestia that in this world, I am not able to be devoted to her and I can also fall in love with other women."

Broly paused, then looked at his goddess.

"And on this basis, Lady Hestia, would you allow me to still love you while I fall in love with someone else, and to consider you as one of my future wives?"

He asked directly.

"Ah, Mr. Broly, what impure things are you saying to a virgin goddess? How could Lady Hestia possibly do such a thing..."

Before the dog-person Naza could finish speaking, Hestia interrupted her, the loli goddess looking over with sparkling eyes.

"Broly, do you see me as your future wife?"

"Yes, from the moment I met Lady Hestia and you agreed to meet me, I wanted to make you my future wife, but not the only one, but one of them."

Bell: “…”

Broly spoke out, openly expressing his desire to have a harem in front of the gods, his tone so natural and matter-of-fact, without the slightest attempt to conceal anything from them. But is it really acceptable to say something like that?!

The boy's breathing became heavy. He could no longer predict what would happen next, but there was no doubt that this was Broly's live demonstration of how to build a harem.

Hestia frowned. The boy's desire to make her his wife pleased her, but the fact that he wasn't her only wife made the virgin goddess somewhat conflicted.

Hestia pondered for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Broly, what if my answer is that I cannot accept your behavior?"

"Lady Hestia, I'm sorry to tell you that it's too late for you to refuse now. Now that I've fallen in love with you, even if I have to force you, I will keep you by my side."

[Hestia, happiness level increased...]

After confirming the message on the Crystal Palace panel, Broly picked up the juice next to him, finished it, and got off the chair.

He walked around the dining table and came to Hestia's side, then turned the chair where the loli goddess was sitting slightly.

Then, the other man jumped up and stood in front of Hestia, forcing his goddess to lean back. He then placed his hands on the back of the chair, somewhat like a wall slam, and began to wall slam his own hearth goddess on the chair.

"Lady Hestia, please make your choice. Are you willing to become my wife in the future, or are you unwilling but will still be forced by me to become my wife in the future?"

The little boy, now looking down at himself, is pressing him with these strange questions.

Hestia, standing in the boy's shadow, felt her face getting hot.

What's the difference between these two options?

She used sarcastic remarks to cover up her current embarrassment.

“There is a difference. I would be very happy if you, Lord Hestia, would like to do so.”

But if you, Lady Hestia, are unwilling, I will be very disappointed.

"After this disappointment, will you still force me, a deity, to become your future wife?"

Hestia asked a question.

"Hmm." Broly nodded and then asked the Loli Goddess, "So, Lady Hestia, I would like to ask you to say yes, okay?"

The expectant gaze, the warm breath on her face as she spoke, and the face so close to hers made Hestia's heart race. She was in a subordinate and forced position.

"Ah, I really can't do anything with you, child. It's only right that I, as a deity, should indulge some of the capricious wishes of my clan's children. That's just how I am when it comes to spoiling them."

As Hestia said this, she bit her lip and gave an affirmative answer.

"Broly, I promise you, I will be your wife in the future, not the only one, but one of the ones who will fulfill your willful wishes."

When Hestia pronounced "one of," she emphasized it heavily, clearly indicating her dissatisfaction, but as she said, it was to satisfy the child's willful wish.

"Thank you, Lady Hestia."

After receiving an affirmative answer, Broly gave the Loli Goddess a big smile and then leaned down to kiss her on the cheek.

"Oh dear, there are people watching! You're so audacious, child! How dare you make such a public lewd gesture towards a deity like me!"

Hestia grumbled in dissatisfaction, but the others were speechless. After being kissed on the cheek, the boy wanted to get down, but the goddess hugged him back and turned his head to show his left cheek that hadn't been kissed.

What does this mean? Does it mean you have obsessive-compulsive disorder and want things to be symmetrical?

Not only that, after being kissed on her left cheek, she tilted her head back and pouted.

What does this mean? Does it mean you want to try it on the mouth too?

If so, should we stick out our tongues when we kiss?
"Hestia, be mindful of your behavior. It's not just you and your child who are here."

Hephaestus offered a reminder.

"Alright alright."

Seeing that others were looking over, Hestia had no choice but to give up her intimate interaction with the boy.

Even if they stopped at this point, Naza and Tsubaki were still greatly shocked. They never expected that Hestia, the Virgin Goddess, could be so doting on her own clan's boy (Broly).

Hephaestus was equally surprised, but considering Hestia's situation, he said he could understand.

Hestia was approached by Broly after she couldn't find any other children in her family. Broly's feelings for her first child were probably very deep, not to mention that Broly himself was an exceptionally talented child.

In contrast to situations where the (divine) emotions are not responded to by the (children), situations like this, where there is a clear response, but the response is a bit too forceful, and the child needs to be shared with other children, are completely acceptable to the (divine).

A child's life is short, but a god's life is infinitely long. When the boy's short life comes to an end and his soul returns to the heavens, the only one who can accompany him on his journey is Hestia, who is a god.

Therefore, unless they are also gods, ordinary children (mortals) are not worthy of being rivals of gods. Thus, Hestia's agreement is not so difficult to understand; it's simply that, as a goddess, she is certain she can accompany her beloved child until the end of time and the world…

This is a kind of serenity unique to the gods, a serenity called eternity.

Hephaestus thought to himself.

[So, this is the correct way to build a harem? You have to be forceful, pin your encounter (the god) against a chair, force them to make a choice they have no other option, and then kiss their cheek...]

Meanwhile, Bell was quietly taking notes on "how to properly build a harem," but the white-haired boy was unaware of the crucial role the auxiliary tool (Crystal Palace Panel) played in it.

If an ordinary person dared to imitate Broly and try to do this, without sufficient strength, there was a small chance they would be killed instantly, and a high chance they would get a good beating.

In the world of DanMachi, a potential fire in Broly's harem was simply swept away into thin air.

After Lily Luca returned from exploring the Hestia Familia's territory, she noticed that the other people were looking at her strangely.

The little girl felt uneasy and walked over to the boy, asking softly, "Brother Broly, did Lily do something wrong? Why are they looking at me so strangely?"

"Miss Erd, nothing happened. While you were away, Brother Broly managed to get the God to agree to share him with you and become Brother Broly's wife in the future..."

Bell answered the girl's question in his mind.

As for how others see you, they probably just want to see how your charm managed to attract Broly, who is admired by Lord Hestia!

Bell's inner answer was indeed correct. Naza, the dog-human girl who was washing dishes, was mentally evaluating the little girl: "This little girl is quite cute, and if you look closely, she's got a nice figure, and a nice perky butt..."

Wow, that's amazing! Such a small creature, yet it can compete with a god for a mate.

But the one-eyed craftsman Tsubaki had a different idea.

“Miss Lily, you haven’t done anything wrong. The one who really did something wrong is another, a tough guy who bullies the gods.”

Hestia answered the little girl's question.

"Eh?!"

Lily Luca looked at the deity in surprise.

"Of course, such trivial matters are not worth mentioning. Now, Miss Lily, I only have one question for you..."

Hestia closed in.

"What, Lady Hestia?"

The little girl had no idea what was happening. Hestia's full breasts pushed her backward until she plopped down on the sofa, with nowhere left to retreat, before she finally stopped.

"Who do you think is the most important person in this clan?"

Hestia leaned down and, just like Broly had wall-pinned her earlier, wall-pinned the little girl onto the sofa.

"Ah, this is the Hestia Familia, so of course you are the greatest. You are the god of the Familia, aren't you?"

Lily Luca didn't understand why the goddess had suddenly become so aggressive towards her, but she still answered instinctively.

"Yes, I am the most important. Very good, Miss Lily. Please always remember what you just said and take it as the standard for your future life."

Hestia got the answer she wanted and nodded in satisfaction.

"Now, let's discuss how to handle Lily's situation."

The term "Loli Goddess" for the little girl has become more endearing again.

"Eh, Lady Hestia, weren't you going to take Miss Erd in?"

Upon hearing this, Bell asked in surprise.

“Yes, we are taking him in.” Hestia nodded. “But unless this child wants to be a canary forever, hiding in our Hestia Familia without ever leaving the house, we have to consider the reaction of the Soma Familia if outsiders discover him.”

Kidnapping other families' children is easy; as long as you don't get caught, there's no problem.

Conversely, once discovered, there will be significant problems.

Clearly, Hestia believed that it was possible for Lilyluca to hide here, but it was unrealistic for her to remain hidden here undiscovered.

“Uh, Lady Hestia…”

"What's wrong, Lily?"

"I actually possess a magic..."

Lily Luca hesitated for a moment, but still chose to reveal the transformation magic she possessed.

"Your scars..."

She even started demonstrating her transformation magic.

As the little girl chanted, furry ears grew on her head and a tail appeared behind her, instantly transforming her into a catgirl.

"Eh?!"

Everyone looked at Catwoman in surprise.

"Woman of Ashes, this is my magic. This magic consumes very little mana. During the day, I can completely transform into the appearance of another race to move around."

Lilyluka is using this method to reduce the trouble that taking her in might cause the Hestia Familia.

"It's amazing magic, but to what extent can it change you?"

Hestia asked out of curiosity.

"I haven't tested the limits of the Ash Woman's transformations, but as long as I can imagine the specific appearance of the person I'm transforming into, I can transform, just like..."

Lily Luca canceled the transformation spell, then used it again, and a goddess who looked exactly like Hestia appeared on the sofa.

"Ah, two Lords Hestia."

Bell exclaimed in surprise.

"Bell, I am the real deal."

Lily Luca, transformed into Hestia, spoke, and her voice was exactly the same as the goddess's.

"It's a very magical spell. Although it can't deceive the gods, it's enough to deceive the children of the mortal world."

Hephaestus commented.

"Then can you become me?"

The one-eyed craftsman Tsubaki was also curious about this transformation magic, so she asked him a question.

"Let me try."

Lily Luca nodded and then tried to transform into the form of the One-Eyed Craftsman.

but……

The transformation did occur, but the One-Eyed Craftsman, after being transformed from Lily Luca, looked as if she had undergone a shrinking surgery.

Not only has her body shrunk, but even her once large breasts have become quite ordinary.

"Pfft~"

Hephaestus couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"It seems that when the physical differences between the transformation subjects are too great, there will be such a situation where it is obvious that there is a huge difference between them and the original."

The red-haired goddess gave her summary.

"Wow, what a figure..."

The one-eyed craftsman Tsubaki looked at Lily Luca's flat chest after she was transformed into her, her eyes filled with undisguised envy. As a blacksmith, Tsubaki Corbrand hated the cumbersome thing hanging on her chest, even though it greatly enhanced her feminine charm.

After all, she doesn't date; she's always forging iron. What good is feminine charm if she'd rather use it for forging skills?

"Although there are size restrictions, I can transform even if I am male."

Lily Luca transformed back into Broly's appearance.

"There are some details I don't know, so it's not a perfect transformation."

Lily Luca's words drew everyone's attention to Broly's crotch as she transformed.

"Yes, it's definitely not a perfect transformation."

Hestia even took it out and checked it herself.

"Ah, Lady Hestia!"

Lily Luca exclaimed in surprise and quickly transformed back, covering the spot where the goddess had touched her, her entire face turning bright red.

"Don't get me wrong, I just want to confirm the extent of your magic's capabilities."

Hestia waved her hand and offered an explanation.

However, she actually just wanted to confirm how well the little girl knew her son.

Well, it's a good thing that it hasn't been fully exposed yet.

My goddess is in a far superior position.

"So, Miss Erd can stay here without any problem, right?!"

Bell said happily.

"If she stays, that's true, but will she still go to the dungeon? If she does, then we'll face a problem."

"what is the problem?"

"Ability values ​​updated".
