The latter looked utterly helpless...
"Hestia, what's wrong with you now?"
She covered her forehead, emphasizing a particular word with a drawn-out tone.
moment……
"Waaaaah~ Nobody wants to join my 'familia'!"
The goddess, who looked like a koala, said with tears in her eyes, "Forget about persuading children to join the Youth League, I can't even find a job to earn a living."
“These past few days I haven’t even had a place to shelter from the wind and rain. When the children saw that I didn’t even have a place to stay, they all left.”
"I'm so hungry QAQ."
"..."
By this time, some people on the street had already passed by and noticed the small commotion over there.
As one of the 'audience members', Ling Shu (Kong) couldn't help but turn his head to look at Ying standing next to him and said telepathically, "Um, if I remember correctly, Hestia is the goddess of fire in ancient Greece's Olympia, who is in charge of 'home' and 'hearth'?"
The Kitchen God is starving? That's unbelievable!
Look at the Teyvat Hearth God...
"That's a myth that circulates inside the Earth, and it might differ from what's here."
The two communicated secretly through a mental link.
However, that makes sense...
"Having a stove but no rice is useless."
"Moreover, it seems that Hestia in this world has transformed the goddess of 'family' into an otaku attribute."
Yingmei offered her sharp critique.
Chapter Thirty: Welcome to the 'Twilight Mansion'
Ling Shu now understood why Freya and Loki both thought Hephaestus was a kind-hearted person... well, a kind-hearted god.
Look, not only did her so-called "close friend" stay at her house for free for more than three months, but now that the other party is suffering badly outside, she couldn't bear to see her freezing and hungry, so she lent out 20,000 fali despite her sharp tongue.
It feels like if she weren't worried that Hestia would become even more dependent and continue to be a lazy bum with no concept of money, she could easily throw away tens of millions.
After all, in the original future timeline, she even gave up the 'True Blade of Hundreds of Millions'.
As for that IOU...
Have you ever seen anyone lend out 200 million without even setting a final repayment deadline?
"It feels like Hephaestus is less of Hestia's divine friend and more of the latter's mother."
"Yes, I feel that way too."
Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying secretly complained to each other.
At this moment, seeing Hestia happily leaving with her money bag not far away, she probably ignored Hephaestus's parting words, "Remember, this is the last time I'll help you." The two of them were both amused and exasperated.
The last billion times, I get it!
"Let's go too."
"Okay, this has taken up a bit of time."
After this little incident, Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying, like the other passersby who had watched the commotion, did not linger.
While eating their 'Fried Potato Balls', the two continued walking towards their destination, 'Twilight Mansion'.
About twenty minutes later...
"arrive."
Ling Shu (Kong) looked at the tall building that appeared in front of his two companions and muttered this to himself.
As a top-tier faction on par with the Freya Familia, the scale of the 'Twilight Mansion' is in no way inferior to that of the 'Battlefield'.
Looking at the entrance, two human adventurers stood on either side, holding long spears and acting as gatekeepers.
Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying slowly approached.
"Please stop."
One of the guards raised his hand and said formally, "This is the Loki Familia's residence. Outsiders are not allowed to enter."
"If you two have important matters to discuss, or if you have made an appointment in advance, please state your purpose beforehand."
They were quite polite.
Ling Shu (Kong) nodded and said directly, "Please inform them that Kong and Ying, siblings from the Freya Familia, have come to pay a visit."
"We should be considered to have made an appointment."
The words had barely left his mouth...
"!"
The two security guards looked surprised and exchanged a glance.
When they looked at Ling Shu and Kong again, "Kong and Ying, brother and sister?"
"That [Twin Stars] who leveled up to Lv.2 in a week?"
Upon hearing this…
"Good work."
Since the other party was being polite, Ling Shu naturally had to be equally courteous.
In any case, the two of them were going to temporarily join the 'expedition' team formed by their faction and go deep into the dungeon together.
It would be best if we could get along peacefully during this time.
At present...
"Please wait a moment."
The two guards had a brief discussion, then one of them stayed behind while the other immediately ran into the 'Twilight Mansion' to report.
Not long after...
"Distinguished guests, I apologize for keeping you waiting."
The gatekeeper who had returned bowed slightly and said softly, "Loki and the captain have been waiting in the conference room for a long time. Please follow me."
"Thanks for your hard work."
Ling Shu (Kong) nodded slightly, then turned to look at Ying beside him, "Let's go."
"Ah."
The latter responded softly and followed slowly.
To outsiders, they appear to be an inseparable brother and sister.
Whether it's their deeds or their appearance, they are all very eye-catching.
At this moment, the adventurer who was guarding the door lingered on Ying's back for a long time.
Until his colleague led the two away from the entrance of the 'Twilight Mansion' on the first floor and entered the interior...
"So beautiful, just like Miss Ais."
******
As the residence of the Loki Familia, the 'Twilight Mansion' is essentially a huge castle.
At this moment, Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying had already been led by the gatekeeper adventurer to the door of a reception room near the top floor.
The latter had just raised his hand, before he could even knock on the door to remind the person inside...
"Huh? Why can't I go greet them?"
"They leveled up to Lv.2 in just one week! I've always been really curious about that, you know?"
"Ais is interested too, isn't she?"
From inside the room came the sound of a naive young girl complaining.
Upon hearing this, Ling Shu (Kong) and Ying did not react, but the gatekeeper adventurer who was responsible for leading the way looked at the two of them and gave them a slightly apologetic wry smile.
As an active adventurer within the Loki Familia, even though he wasn't a core member, he knew exactly who was making a fuss inside.
The reason she wasn't allowed to go out to greet them was because...
"Idiot Tiona, what if you make a bad first impression by being so loud and boisterous?"
"The guests we're hosting this time are highly valued even by the commander. If you dare to mess things up, I'll absolutely not let you off the hook. Did you hear me?"
The admonition from another hot-tempered older sister reached my ears.
"Tch, they're just two nobodies who just leveled up to Lv.2. Is it really necessary to call us all here?"
“Bert, you can’t talk like that later.”
"Tsk~"
"Also, Tiona, the question you're about to ask might be a secret of their clan, so be careful what you say."
"Oh."
……
"Dong Dong~"
The guide standing at the door felt he couldn't wait any longer.
Otherwise, who knows what shocking things might come out of there next.
The room fell silent immediately after the knock.
A little while later...
"Please come in."
Although the tone was mature, it leaned towards a youthful voice, and the words rang out calmly.
