Gensokyo Population Revitalization Plan

There weren't even that many when he was with me.

After the episode, Mu Huai accompanied them to a clothing store on the 29th floor of the Tower of Babel, which specializes in customizing clothes for gods.

Walking into the store, you will see crystal chandeliers hanging from the towering ceiling. The crystals reflect soft amber light, leaving shimmering shadows on the dark-patterned wallpaper.

Rows of gold-painted display cabinets lined the walls, their surfaces polished to a mirror-like shine, reflecting the exquisite garments meticulously arranged for display—silk evening gowns adorned with pearls, court cloaks edged with gold thread…each piece was coated with a dreamy halo by the pale golden magic stone lamp.

The two of them were initially excited to look at the gorgeous exhibits, but when Lily noticed the price of the custom-made clothes and told Hestia about it, they fell silent.

Because the minimum price for custom-made clothes is 10 million fares, and the style is no different from ordinary clothes.

"Mu Huai...why don't we go back?"

"Yeah, Lily also thinks the clothes here are a bit unreasonably expensive."

"Ten million faris isn't a lot, let alone enough to buy you clothes. Madam, could you please take Hestia's measurements and then order three sets of casual clothes for me, and a dinner suit... well... dinner suits are more conservative."

Mu Huai waved his hand and put the 30 million francs for custom-made clothes on the counter. His extravagant spending made the two women feel painful.

"Understood, Goddess Hestia. Please come with me to the fitting room to get measured."

Lily saw Mu Huai's eyes on her, and fearing he would say, "Her clothes should also follow the instructions just now," she quickly grabbed his arm and shook her head, "Master Mu Huai, Lily is a supporter and doesn't need so many fancy clothes. Instead of spending money on things like this, why not use it on your own equipment?"

"I don't really need to update my equipment, do you?"

"Lily, you don't need it. The previous equipment is good enough for a supporter!"

"But I can't favor one over the other just because of this. I still have to buy something for you."

Lily had no choice but to pull Mu Huai down and bend over, then she put her lips to his ear and whispered softly: "If you really feel bad, let Lily feel love a few more times tonight. Sooner or later, I will go to the Soma clan and defeat the divine wine with my own will and love for you!"

Seeing that she was so persistent, Mu Huai gave up.

"Okay, if you want any equipment or clothes later, you can just tell me."

The store manager walked out of the fitting room and approached Mu Huai, saying respectfully, "Sir, the measurements of Hestia have been completed. If it's convenient for you, could you please come with me to the sample area to pick out a rough style for an evening gown?"

"Okay, Lily, if Hestia comes out you can stay here with her."

"I see!"

After the custom-made clothes were completed, the three of them went to the Hostess of Abundance for dinner. This time, they did not meet anyone from Loki's family, which whetted Hestia's appetite and she ate a little more than usual.

After the meal, Hestia enjoyed Mu Huai's belly rub and squinted her eyes comfortably: "Mu Huai, Lily and I are going to look for Hephaestus later, you should go home first."

"What do you want from her?"

"I asked her to help me find a book before, so I'm going to get it now."

"Row."

Chapter 23 Lily grasps the future.

Lily was a little confused. She had never heard Hestia mention such a thing, but with her excellent observation ability, she noticed that the other party was moving her eyes at a frequency of once every two seconds. She immediately realized that her Lord God had other things to do that could not be explained to Mu Huai, so she did not ask.

After waving goodbye and watching Mu Huai leave, Lily turned around and asked, "Lady Hestia, why are we going to see the goddess Hephaestus?"

"Shh!"

Hestia held up a finger to her lips, silencing her. "You'll find out when we get there. Let's go."

"Oh."

In fact, long before Hestia kissed Mu Huai, she had planned to give him a special weapon, because Lily said that the weapon he used when adventuring in the dungeon had no magic fluctuations at all, and apart from glowing, it did not look like a good weapon at all.

Weapons are a crucial part of any adventure, and Mu Huai's condition of holding scrap metal made her very worried. Now, while he was not exploring the dungeon, she asked Hephaestus to help her forge weapons.

Once again coming to the Hephaestus family filled with the smell of metal and fire, Hestia and Lily covered their ears as they walked into the mansion, and happened to see Hephaestus who had just finished her work.

She walked out of the exclusive forging room wearing a black vest, a rare sight. Her tough yet feminine muscles were covered in beads of sweat. Seeing Hestia and Lily, she raised her eyebrows in surprise and casually put on a white shirt. "Hestia, what do you want to see me for?"

"Hephaestus, can I use the Orichalcum steel I left with you to create a custom weapon for Mu Huai?"

Hephaestus paused as she wiped the sweat off her face with a towel. She looked at her fellow god with a complicated expression, somewhat incredulous. "Are you serious? A special weapon?"

"Lord Hephaestus, is there any difference between a special weapon and an ordinary weapon?"

Lily had never heard of the term exclusive weapons. She only knew that weapons were divided into three levels of weaponry, one, two, and three, from strong to weak. First-level weapons were the main weapons of top adventurers, and would have special abilities that were highly compatible with their owners, and also had a high magic conductivity rate.

The second-class weapons are the main weapons for the backbone adventurers. They are very sturdy and durable but rarely have special abilities. The third-class weapons are the basic weapons for novice adventurers.

"Exclusive weapons are weapons that can only be used by those who have been granted a favor. In the hands of others, these weapons are even more useless than third-rate weapons, but in the hands of their true masters, they are divine weapons."

After explaining, Hephaestus looked at Hestia again: "Making a custom weapon is not cheap. Can you afford the forging fee?"

"Lily, wait for me outside. I need to discuss this matter with her in detail."

"Ok!"

After Lily left, Hephaestus thought Hestia would give him a large sum of money, but she knelt down at lightning speed, her forehead pressed against the cold floor, and shouted, "I'm sorry, I don't have any money! Can I pay it to you first?"

"Ah... I shouldn't have had any hope that you'd be rich..."

"There's nothing I can do. Mu Huai just spent 80 million faris on buying me clothes. I can't possibly ask him to pay for the forging of the weapon I'm giving him!"

"Eighty million...did he really take you to that custom shop?"

"Uh-huh!"

Even the Hephaestus family in Orario, who were overwhelmed with forging commissions, could not come up with 80 million in liquid funds in a short period of time to customize clothes for their own god.

Regardless of where Mu Huai got so much money, the fact that he was willing to spend money on Hestia was enough to impress Hephaestus.

"Okay, I'll give you credit."

"Very good!!"

Hephaestus raised her hand to stop Hestia from hugging him. "Let me tell you in advance, the minimum price for crafting a custom weapon is 2 million faris. It cannot be reduced any further. And I need your divine blood, hair, and divine scripture."

She patted her chest confidently and assured, "Don't worry, I won't default on my promise. Let's start forging now?"

"What are you thinking about? The preparations will take a whole day. You'd better prepare the hair and divine blood for me."

"Oh."

Seeing her friend's happy smile, Hephaestus couldn't help but ask again, "Hestia, are you...really in love with a mortal?"

"Yes! I love Mu Huai deeply. In this life, in the next... no matter how he reincarnates, I will find him, let him recall every little bit of our past, and then be together again!"

Hestia's smile reminded Hephaestus of the most magnificent sea of ​​life flowers in the divine realm. Just looking at both of them could make people smile from the bottom of their hearts, and want to admire this contagious beauty.

"By the way, please don't tell Mu Huai about this. I want to give him the exclusive weapon as a surprise!"

"Well, what weapons does he usually use?"

"It should be a one-handed sword, right? I heard from Lily-kun that he basically fights with a sword that glows red."

"Red light?"

Hephaestus suddenly became curious about what kind of weapon Mu Huai usually used, but her professionalism suppressed her curiosity. "Your piece of Orichalcum steel is not strong enough to be forged into a one-handed sword. At most, it can be forged into a dagger."

"A short sword will do, too. Oh, and it also has a magic slot. Remember to mix some mithril into it to increase the magic conductivity."

"Got it. Come with me to the office to prepare the materials for the divine blood. Come back in a week to get them."

"Uh-huh!"

After providing the necessary materials for forging, Hestia skipped out of the mansion and left with Lily who was waiting outside.

Hephaestus did not intend to tell her that Mu Huai had come here a few days ago to customize weapons. Given how much he doted on her, he would sooner or later turn Hestia into a disabled person, so the 2 million faris debt was the best insurance to prevent her from becoming a disabled person.

If you don’t want to rely on your own family’s children, then go to work and work hard to earn money to pay off your debts!

……

For some reason, Hestia has been in a particularly good mood since she returned home. Whenever she meets Mu Huai's eyes, she will smile like a crazy fan and immerse herself in pink fantasies.

Even if Mu Huai took the initiative to chat with her, she would fall into her own world after a few words and completely ignore other things.

A gleam of light flashed in Li Li, the thieving cat's eyes. She once again seized this excellent opportunity. While Hestia had no intention of getting into Mu Huai's bed, she quietly pushed open his bedroom door in the middle of the night.

This time she turned into a silver-haired girl with wolf ears, biting her delicate lips and whispering: "Lily, grasp the future!"

Chapter 24 Welfare events and continuous upgrades.

There was no need to go to the dungeon to show off his passion. Mu Huai, who stayed in the cold big mansion, slept until he woke up naturally every day. Black-haired, brown-haired, and blonde lolita pillows would randomly refresh next to his pillow, which made him exclaim: "How cool~"

Perhaps because he had been on standby at home for so long, he finally encountered the popular bathroom changing event one evening.

Looking at Lily's pink shoulders covered with moisture and the tip of the lotus leaves just emerging, Mu Huai politely closed the door and silently wiped the crystal tears from the corners of his eyes.

[Xiaonin, after having five girlfriends, I finally encountered a welfare event. ]

[Yes, yes, congratulations, Master~]

Xiao Ren read the book without any emotion. She was puzzled as to why Mu Huai was obsessed with such a strange incident. He had five beautiful wives at home, so why would he be moved by such a small thing?

Maybe that's what being a man is.

Hestia had been feeling a little stuffy in her chest these past couple of days. She was pretty sure she wasn't sick, but she couldn't think of any other reason, so she had to discuss it with Mu Huai.

She held her trembling big white rabbit in her arms and complained with a sad face: "Mu Huai, my chest has been hurting so much lately."

If it weren't for Mu Huai's amazing concentration, he probably wouldn't even know what Hestia was saying. Forcing his eyes away from her eye-catching deep cleavage, he bent down and placed the back of his hand on her forehead to measure her temperature.

"The temperature is normal... The back of the hand might not be accurate, let's try the forehead."

As he spoke, he changed the back of his hand to his forehead.

The two people's breaths intertwined, and Hestia felt even more uncomfortable in her chest. Her breathing began to become rapid, and the pair of big rabbits made the fabric on her chest make a slight crackling sound.

"It's neither high nor low. At least I've ruled out factors like a cold..."

Mu Huai was just about to call Lily over to ask something, but he saw that the chest fabric of Hestia's clothes, which was originally enlarged and widened by the dwarf tribe, suddenly burst open, and two plump peaches jumped out.

"ah!!"

She screamed, covered her chest and squatted down. Now both of them understood why she was feeling uncomfortable.

[Damn it, her breasts are still growing stronger! !]

"Hestia, you should wear custom-made clothes from now on. The clothes of the dwarfs...are really not suitable for you."

"Ah."

"Lily, please go to Hestia's room and get her other dress."

Lily, who came running over after hearing the scream, saw the torn cloth on the ground and roughly understood what had happened. She looked enviously at the snow-white tender flesh that was crushed and overflowing between Hestia's legs, and ran upstairs to get clothes.

……

The week of banning dungeon exploration passed quickly. Before Mu Huai went to the dungeon, he went to Hephaestus and got the little ninja's weapon, the demon sword Xindu.

He didn't even have time to check the effect of the weapon before he was swallowed by Xiaonin. She patted her belly and burped cutely: "Master, now I can fight alongside you!"

"You mean you can attack with me in the shadows now?"

"That's right!"

"Let's go to the dungeon and show me how you can cooperate with me."

Mu Huai and Lily rushed all the way to the 10th floor of the dungeon. The original treasure chest cave had disappeared. It was probably because of the one-time reward, so it automatically disappeared after the treasure chest was opened.

During the journey, Lily was surprised to find that although Mu Huai had not attacked the dungeon for a week, his combat effectiveness had actually improved a lot. She also noticed that his shadow could make completely different movements from his body to attack monsters.

Monsters attacked by shadows will not have any wounds on the surface, but will only scream inexplicably and then die. If you look closely, you will find that the monster's shadow has been cut into pieces, as if it was killed from the shadow level.

Mu Huai called this attack method a stand attack, and deceived Lily by saying that only a stand user could see the shadow's true appearance.

With one more fighter, Mu Huai confidently handed over the task of protecting Lily to Xiaonin. She could control the shadow to extend to ten meters. If she found the right light source and angle, she could even control the shadow to move freely within a range of one hundred meters.

After reaching the pure white 17th floor again in an almost invincible manner, Lily was completely convinced. She would no longer have any objection to Mu Huai conquering the dungeon alone, and even felt that having her as a supporter was a burden to him.

"Master Mu Huai, wouldn't it be better for Lily to stay home with Lady Hestia?"

"Why do you think so?"

"Because Lily was of no help at all in the battle."

Mu Huai smiled slightly, reached out and rubbed Lily's delicate little face vigorously. Facing her confused gaze, he said, "You have fulfilled your duties as a supporter perfectly. You helped me choose shortcuts, introduced monsters, and mined ores. Aren't these all helping me?"
