The Fukaros Familia, starting from DanMachi.

Chapter 121 The Shameless Hermes

"That adventurer has been somewhat famous and quite strong for a while now—the faction gathered over there doesn't have a good reputation, so be careful—"

Walking through the banquet hall, you can see many famous adventurers everywhere.

There were beautiful elves who seemed reluctant to be dragged to the event, tall dwarves who looked uncomfortable in their formal attire, dashing orcs, and agile Amazons.

Besides the flawless gods, there were also numerous, brightly dressed demi-humans in the venue.

Knowing that Yu didn't know much about Orario's upper echelons, Naza quietly introduced him to many famous adventurers and clan factions.

"You've arrived."

In a relatively quiet corner, a familiar voice came from inside.

They encountered Takemikazuchi, who was waiting, and Yamato no Mikoto beside him.

Without a doubt, Takemikazuchi was also brought in by Fenyu to bolster his reputation.

However, his family was slightly wealthier than the Mih family, so the Fukaros family didn't need to prepare carriages and formal attire for them, and thus they arrived first.

Today, Takemikazuchi is wearing a dark blue tailcoat.

Yamato, standing beside him, appeared somewhat uneasy.

She wore a light purple sleeveless long dress, the style of which was inspired by the cross-collar design of a kimono, revealing her delicate collarbone and a small patch of fair skin.

Her skirt was long and had a perfectly placed high slit on the side, revealing glimpses of her calves clad in white stockings as she moved restlessly.

Accustomed to traditional clothing, she felt embarrassed by the slightly glamorous and revealing dress, her cheeks always flushed slightly.

"Hey, Jian, wow, even Mihe's here, that's quite a rare sight."

Just then, a red-haired goddess wearing an eye patch walked over with a wine glass in her hand, and greeted Takemikazuchi and Mihwashin familiarly. She was none other than Hephaestus, the goddess of forging.

"It's Hephaestus. Why are you alone?"

Takemikazuchi responded with a smile.

"That child is rather unconventional; he left me alone and went for a walk nearby."

Hephaestus shook her head helplessly.

Then, her gaze turned to Fenyu and Fukalos.

"Young man, we meet again. This must be your chief god, Fucarus, right? Hello, I am Hephaestus."

She nodded to Fenyu, then gracefully extended her hand to Fukalos.

Fukaros gave her a graceful handshake, his face bearing a perfect social smile: "Hello, Hephaestus. Although we don't have much interaction in the heavens, I've heard a great deal about you in the mortal realm. After all, you're the largest forging family in Orario."

"Oh dear, you're all gathered together! Let me join in!"

A loud voice suddenly came from behind.

Fen Yu turned his head and saw Hermes walking towards them with a cheerful smile, his eyes curving into crescents, clearly in a very good mood.

"Oh, Hermes, God!"

When Takemikazuchi saw Hermes, he immediately showed an expression of undisguised disgust.

Beside Hermes stood Asphi, the bespectacled and intellectually refined leader of the clan.

To match the banquet, she changed out of her usual practical attire and put on a deep sea blue dress that was tailor-made for her.

The dress is made of silk with a subtle sheen, which shimmers like stars under the light.

In terms of design, the dress did not use complicated lace or petticoats, but instead used simple and clean lines to outline her beautiful figure.

The high-necked design exudes elegance and restraint, while the neckline and cuffs are embroidered with intricate patterns in silver thread, perfectly highlighting her noble temperament.

"Lord Hermes, please keep your voice down—" Asphie hurried to catch up, advising helplessly while letting out her habitual sigh.

"Why are you coming over here? We weren't exactly on good terms before," Takemikazuchi said with a look of disdain.

"Hey, Takemikazuchi, didn't we work together to overcome difficulties before? Don't exclude me."

After Hermes finished speaking cheerfully, he quickly slipped away from Takemikazuchi and came to Fenyu, a friendly smile appearing on his face.

"Hey, Brother Fenyu, you look really cool in that outfit. This must be Fukaros, right? Ah, you're such a beautiful goddess. It's such a loss that I didn't get to know you in the Heavenly Realm."

He first greeted Fenyu familiarly, then looked at Fukalos with a radiant gaze, praising him loudly with an exaggerated expression.

Before he finished speaking, he naturally leaned down, wanting to take Fukaros's hand and give it a kiss.

"Yes, I think not knowing you is the greatest fortune of my life."

Fucarus took a small step back without making a sound, and withdrew his slender hand in the same way, perfectly dodging Hermes's "salty pig's hand". At the same time, he cleverly used Fenyu's body as a barrier to protect himself.

"Ah, so sad, why is this happening?" Hermes, having failed in his attempt to grope her, immediately clutched his chest, revealing a look of utter grief.

"Hermes, stay away from my goddess." Fen Yu stretched out his hand with a look of disgust, directly blocking Hermes's way.

"Alright, alright," Hermes sighed, but immediately changed his target, his gaze falling on Yamato Mikoto, whose face was flushed. "Hey, isn't this Mikoto? Are you nervous? It's such a shame that someone as cute as you is always so nervous."

"So cute!?"

Completely flustered by the sudden praise, Yamato's cheeks flushed crimson.

The shameless Hermes seized the opportunity to lean forward, deftly taking Yamato's gloved hand and planting a light kiss on her slender fingers.

boom!

With that kiss, Yamato's already flushed face finally erupted completely.

Thump! Thud!

Not only that, Takemikazuchi's furious punch slammed down on Hermes' head, while Asphie, who had been following behind, expressionlessly raised her foot and delivered a precise kick to her god with her sharp heel.

Hit precisely by this sudden triple strike, Hermes let out a scream and collapsed to the ground in agony.

Looking at Hermes writhing on the ground in pain, Fen Yu revealed a gloating expression, feeling as if he had finally gotten his revenge.

"There are more and more people here."

"After all, there are children in addition to the gods, so it will be more lively than a normal 'banquet'."

Meanwhile, Mich and Hephaestus completely ignored the farce on the ground, calmly chatting while holding their wine glasses.

Meanwhile, new guests kept arriving, and the banquet hall became increasingly bustling with activity.
