Even if she were to face other monsters, she could still use her divine power to save her own kin, even if she broke the rules.

However, facing Andaris, whose divine power was ineffective, she had no confidence in saving her own clan should something unexpected happen.

This prompted her to request the Adventurers' Guild to send a stronger team of adventurers to the Great Tree Sea to defeat Andaris.

However, Hestia confidently patted her chest and told her: It's alright, she will find helpers to help them defeat Andaris, and she will definitely not let their kin die.

But Hestia's appearance really made her lack confidence.

Artemis thought of this, then glanced at Hestia, who was giving up, and couldn't help but sigh.

Just then, Artemis noticed something, and her expression changed slightly: "Hestia, your divinity..."

Artemis suddenly realized that something was wrong with Hestia.

Although Hestia's abilities and characteristics as a virgin goddess remained unchanged.

However, this identity and status have already disappeared.

If she weren't also one of the Virgo goddesses, she wouldn't have realized this.

Upon hearing this, Hestia finally stopped playing the game.

She stiffly turned to look at Artemis, her guilty look resembling that of a child caught doing something wrong by their parents.

"Hehehe~ Don't worry, Artemis, I haven't made friends randomly." Hestia chuckled.

Because of the power of the gods, even if she loses her status as a virgin goddess, her abilities will not be affected.

He thought he could fool Artemis, but she still found out.

Fortunately, Artemis was unaware that she and Su Luo often partied with the other girls in the group; otherwise, given Artemis's personality, a lecture would have been inevitable.

After all, Artemis's nickname in the heavens is "Chairman of the Heavenly Impure Heterosexual Relationship Suppression Committee".

In the heavens, if she sees other gods having a party, she will definitely intervene to stop them.

This is also the origin of the nickname.

Chapter 217 Su Luo: Hestia, you didn't want this either...

"As long as you know your limits," Artemis said without saying anything.

She does not approve of impure heterosexual relationships, such as the kind of parties between gods.

However, if Hestia had simply found someone she liked, she wouldn't stop her or force her to remain chaste.

Even a virgin has the right to pursue love!

Moreover, Hestia, like her, was a virgin goddess and a longtime friend.

She still trusted the other person's judgment and temperament.

If the other person is really that bad, how could Hestia, who hates men, possibly be with him?

Seeing that Artemis did not investigate further, Hestia breathed a sigh of relief.

If her longtime friend pressed her for answers, she might not be able to resist.

Now I just hope Su Luo won't participate in this mission.

With this in mind, Hestia silently prayed.

However, things always take unexpected turns.

Hestia had just finished praying when Su Luo appeared before her.

"Hestia, didn't you just finish issuing the mission? Why are you lying on the sofa playing games so leisurely?" Su Luo teased with a smile.

In the past, Hestia might have been happy and flirted with Su Luo.

But Artemis is still here.

In an instant, Hestia's heart leaped into her throat.

She hadn't expected that Su Luo would arrive so quickly, just after she had issued the task.

Keep in mind that they won't be setting off so soon, and the other sisters in the group won't be coming to join the mission so quickly either.

"Luo, what brings you here?"

“We plan to rest for the night and make some preparations. We’re not setting off anytime soon,” Hestia said with a forced smile.

Despite feeling a little flustered, she reacted very quickly.

As she spoke, she quickly opened the group chat panel and initiated a private chat with Su Luo.

【Hestia】: Fall, tone it down a bit, don't let Artemis see through your act.

After sending the message, Hestia cast a pleading look at Su Luo.

Her fair and lovely face seemed to be filled with the words "she doesn't want to be lectured".

Su Luo blinked.

He had barely arrived in the DanMachi world when he received a message from Hestia, who asked him to tone down his temper.

Seeing this, Su Luo glanced at Artemis beside her and realized that the other was also observing her, and instantly understood what was going on.

"Um, let me introduce you. This is Su Luo, a person from another world."

“This is Artemis, a friend of mine for many years,” Hestia introduced them.

"Hello," Artemis greeted with a smile and a nod.

Su Luo responded politely.

Seeing this, Artemis wisely took her leave, saying, "Hestia, since someone has come to see you, you should treat them well and stop playing games."

After saying this, Artemis gave a teasing smile and left to return to her room.

Hestia breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that Artemis had left and that she hadn't pursued Su Luo's matter further.

Seeing this, Su Luo couldn't help but tease, "Why are you so afraid of Artemis?"

“You know Artemis is a goddess. If she knew that you, the girls in the group and I often have parties, she would definitely lecture me,” Hestia sighed.

Artemis is the goddess of chastity and is disgusted by the chaotic private lives of the gods.

Even though Su Luo is nothing compared to the gods, in Artemis's eyes she is no different from them.

Artemis might be shocked by her friend's fall from grace and start lecturing her.

The gods in the heavens certainly understand this deeply.

She herself never imagined that one day she would be able to understand the feelings of those gods in the heavens.

After listening to Hestia's story, Su Luo nodded thoughtfully.

Then, a malicious smile crept across her lips as she said, "Hestia, you don't want Artemis to know what you've been doing in the other world, do you?"

Upon hearing this, Hestia looked at Su Luo in disbelief.

She never expected that Su Luo would take this opportunity to "launch an attack"!

The key point is that he accurately grasped her weaknesses, leaving her completely clueless about how to counter him.

"What...what do you want?" Hestia swallowed hard.

She had a feeling that if she didn't pay a price tonight, she probably wouldn't be able to get Su Luo to keep her secret.

"It's nothing, it's just that it's rare to be alone together, and I'm sure Hestia wouldn't want to spoil the fun and surrender on her own," Su Luo said, revealing her purpose.

"Can't...can't I ask someone else for help? My entire clan consists of outstanding women." Hestia's face was bitter.

Should we leave her to face Su Luo alone?

What a joke!

With her limited strength, if she were to fight Su Luo one-on-one, she would definitely be resurrected by the power of the gods.

She didn't want to die so easily because of something like this, otherwise, if word got out, would Hestia still be considered a goddess?

"Hestia, I didn't expect you to be so ruthless in selling your own clan. I really misjudged you," Su Luo said with a slight sigh, feigning disappointment.

Hestia's eyelids twitched at the sight of Su Luo, and she wished she could give Su Luo a good beating.

However, her strength did not allow her to do so, so she could only weakly retort, "I am not selling my clan, I am just bringing forward future events to the present."

Even if I hadn't caused this incident today, would you have let them off the hook?

"No," Su Luo replied decisively.

Faced with Hestia's "Look what you're seeing" expression, Su Luo remained calm and joked, "Speaking of which, you just told me to keep a low profile, and now you're finding help without worrying Artemis will find out?"

"It would be better if we weren't here. Your gap-space ability should be able to take us somewhere else, right?"

This time, Hestia was not affected by Su Luo and her thinking was very clear.

Su Luo nodded slightly: "That's right, that's indeed the case."

“But I just like holding the ceremony here. It just so happens that Artemis’s kin are all women, which makes it even more convenient for us to hold the ceremony.” With that, Su Luo picked up Hestia and carried her toward the guest room that Artemis had prepared for Hestia.

Hestia's face flushed, and she was anxious. She hurriedly made up all sorts of excuses to try to escape the fate of having to fight Su Luo one-on-one.

"No, what if Artemis finds out? How embarrassing!"

"And aren't we going to attack Andaris tomorrow? Get a good rest tonight, so that nothing goes wrong during the attack tomorrow, okay?"

"Please, Luo. Let's go outside. If Artemis finds out here, I'll lose all face as a god."

……

Chapter 218 Everyone Suffers from Insomnia

In her desperation, Hestia didn't care whether it was reasonable or not, and all sorts of excuses came out.

Su Luo ignored him and, after returning to the room with Hestia, immediately began the mana replenishment ritual.

Before long, the starting sound of the ceremony echoed throughout the room.

It's in the room next door.

Artemis was resting in her room, but she couldn't fall asleep because her mind was full of thoughts about Hestia and Su Luo.

She was especially curious about Su Luo.

People from another world possess a charm that surpasses even that of the goddess of beauty.

If it weren't for her being in charge of chastity and Hestia not being her good friend, she really wouldn't have the confidence to face Su Luo directly when they were together.

Just then, the sound of Hestia using magic came from next door.

In an instant, even someone as pure as Artemis understood what Hestia was doing.

She stood there, stunned, her eyes filled with disbelief.

Her fair and beautiful face was now quietly flushed with a rosy glow.

Back in the celestial realm, Hestia, like her, utterly despised men.

Although she came to the mortal realm to find a man, this should change.

But she never expected Hestia's change to be so drastic!

They've only known each other for a short time, yet they already know each other inside and out!

Although she was shocked, Artemis did not go to stop them.

After all, it was her best friend's relationship, and as their friend, she couldn't very well go and disturb their good time.

As long as Hestia isn't like everyone else, that's fine.

Thinking this, Artemis pulled the blanket up to completely cover herself, attempting to alleviate Hestia's mental attack in this way.

This situation did not only occur with Artemis, but also over time.

The battle on Hestia's side is becoming increasingly fierce.

It has already affected the sleep of the entire Artemis Familia!
