Strangers, dressed in completely different styles, wandered the streets.

"Orario has become even more diverse."

Previously, there were elves, humans, orcs, dwarves, and so on; now there are also tourists from other cities and countries.

As for the reason...

The adventurers who drank at the roadside stalls mentioned it.

"Because of the doubling of magic stone production, many merchant guilds have begun to explore routes connecting Orario. Even the forests that were once always bypassed have been transformed into two intermediate stations with the cooperation of adventurers and mercenaries, allowing merchants and tourists to pass through safely."

Upon hearing this, Chen Hai felt that his 'new dungeon rules' would not only benefit adventurers, but also the economy.

Therefore, even in another world, the economy is still very important.

This also explains why adventurers work so hard.

Because nobody wants to miss out on a chance to make a fortune.

With that in mind, Hestia led him to a shop.

This place is very popular; there's always a queue.

but--

Chen Hai is an exception.

When passersby saw him appear, they quickly made way for him.

"Um...you guys line up, it's kind of awkward like this."

Hestia stopped in her tracks upon seeing this.

The passersby laughed and said

"It's alright. Lord Chenhai is very busy. He must not have had much time to come out to buy some things. Please go ahead and buy them."

"I have no opinion."

"It's just to give you a seat, you two don't need to worry about it."

"I just bought it and haven't opened the package yet. If you two need it, I can give it to you for free."

Facing the dungeon's lord and all the members of the Adventurers' Guild, every customer present tried to build a good relationship with Chen Hai in their own way.

Chen Hai finally understood why those with privileges were so happy...

However, he intended to project a friendly image, so he asked people to return to their previous positions and not make way.

Immediately afterwards...

When the store staff saw that Chen Hai was at the end of the line, they increased their efficiency and the two of them were served quickly.

Ten servings, please!

Hestia placed a large order directly.

Besides her own and Tatsumi's portions, there were also snacks for Saeko Busujima, Saya Takagi, and others.

This is the goddess's thoughtfulness.

As Chen Hai watched his employees busily getting to work, Hestia beside him couldn't help but whisper a question.

"Regarding the topic that Chen Haiju and Ganesha discussed during the 'Divine Meeting,' are those 'heretics' real?"

“Of course it’s true. When I explained it to him, I also mentioned my arrangements for the ‘heretic’.”

“No wonder Ganesha used to hold ‘MonsterPhilia’… The core of that event must have been ‘friendship with monsters,’ because he understood ‘heretics’ better than we gods.”

“Ganesha did a lot in this regard.”

"As a result... Chenhai-jun, you sent Uranus back to the Celestial Realm. I was worried that Ganesha would take action against you at the 'Divine Assembly' just now, after all, he used to cooperate closely with Uranus, especially regarding the 'Heretics'."

Hestia's concerns were not unfounded.

However, Ganesha was also a wise god.

With Uranus killed, he knew he had no chance to avenge him.

At the same time, Ganesha had no reason to seek revenge.

Instead of pondering these questions, it would be better to seek new ways of cooperation while publicly acknowledging the existence of the 'heretics' in Chenhai.

Ultimately, the interests among deities are not absolute; they all have their own agendas.

"Since those 'heretics' manage the 'Dungeon Otherworld,' does that mean that 'Orario' will also establish contact with that 'otherworld' in the future?"

“That’s right, there are many things that Orario doesn’t have.”

"Is that so? What kinds are they?"

"Airplanes, cannons, tanks, and the like."

"what is that?"

"arms."

"Ugh, this feels so scary. Is there no other entertainment? And no food!"

Hestia values ​​fun and food more than weapons that can harm people.

Chen Hai said with a smile

"You can explore it yourself when the time comes."

He believed that the "dead body crisis" in the Apocalypse dimension would not last long, especially given his intervention.

At that time, Chen Hai will formulate new rules for the nations of the "Apocalypse" dimension, allowing them to lead teams to explore the underground city.

You can receive a reward if you persist for a certain period of time;

Those who persist for too short a time will be punished.

For example, the country might be invaded by monsters.

Once they know the details of the punishment, the armies of those countries will certainly fight extremely hard.

Chen Hai's experience points will also increase significantly as a result.

After all, that's a world, a planet, with an army that adds up to tens of millions!

"Lord Chenhai, Lady Hestia, the goods you requested are ready."

The shop assistant then handed the packaged snacks to the two of them.

"Thank you!"

After thanking her, Hestia paid and accepted the box.

"Let's go back, Chenhai-kun."

"Well, it's time to go back and rest."

The two embarked on their journey home once again.

Chen Hai looked at the blue-ribbon goddess who was holding his arm and thought that this kind of daily life was not bad.

Hestia’s 'snack party' started quickly and ended just as quickly.

Chen Hai had just finished showering when he heard a knock on the door.

Upon opening the door, Misha, dressed in the uniform of an Adventurers' Guild employee, stood outside.

"Excuse me, Mr. Chen Hai!"

"what happened?"

"I've come to deliver a message to you. It was sent by the 'Ishtar Familia.' They said that Goddess Ishtar will be arriving at the guild in half an hour and hopes to meet you at the manor."

"Give me the letter, and tell the other party that they can come to my room to talk."

"Okay, okay."

Michael nodded and ran off in a flash.

Chen Hai then opened the envelope, inside was a letter written to him by Ishtar, the goddess who governs the 'Night Street'.

Most of the content is related to the topic of 'banning night streets'.

However, the actual conversation will have to wait until the two of them meet.

Faced with this application, Chen Hai also had new plans.

"I'll get ready too."

Chen Hai turned to look at his bed, tossing aside the extra blankets and pillows for later use...

Half an hour later.

Chen Hai sat alone in the VIP room of the mansion provided by the Adventurers' Guild, the magic stone lamp casting a warm glow that illuminated the room.

He was wearing a light jacket and savoring the wine that had just filled his glass.

Soon Chen Hai looked towards the door, and the first thing that drifted into the house on the wind was a faint fragrance.

The fragrance, like a blend of roses and amber, quietly filled the air.

"No door is closed."

After Chen Hai finished speaking, the door was pushed open.

A figure appeared in the room with its back to the night moon.

It's Ishtar.

The goddess who governs the streets of pleasure did not attend in full regalia as she would for a 'divine gathering,' but instead changed into a new outfit.

It was a deep red silk satin dress, the hem flowing like flames, with a high slit at the waist, revealing long, fair legs.

Above, only two thin gold chains held the hem of her dress up from her shoulders, leaving large expanses of her fair skin exposed to the cool night breeze.

Her collarbone was as delicate as a crescent moon, complementing her stunning figure.

She truly deserves to be called the goddess of beauty.

The professions in the human world are quite subtle.

Chen Hai looked at her silently and greeted her calmly.

"Miss Ishtar, please have a seat."

Upon hearing this, Ishtar smiled slightly.

She walked slowly closer, her skirt trailing on the ground, making a soft rustling sound as she walked.

"I want to know why you shut down 'Night Street'."

Ishtar took her seat in front of Chen Hai and continued speaking.

"It is true that the 'Night Street' in Orario is a breeding ground for crime and a place of disorder, but has Lord Chenhai ever considered that it is also the only place of rest for many people?"

"I do not think so."

“That’s a real pity… Lord Chenhai; you are the ruler of the underground city, and you pursue absolute order, which I can understand.”

At this point, Ishtar rested her chin on her left hand and said softly.

"But Orario is a perfect city where only order exists. Where there is light, there is shadow; where there are laws and regulations, there is a need for freedom. My 'Night Town' is a place where some adventurers can seek comfort and release their pent-up emotions after exploring the dungeons. From this perspective, isn't it important?"

Chen Hai did not answer, his gaze sweeping over her.

The goddess was beautiful, but her actions made Chen Hai feel the opposite.

He wasn't some great or righteous figure; he simply disliked the existence of a 'Night Street' on the land he managed.

"I think I can tell Lord Chenhai about this kind of fun myself."

As she said this, Ishtar lifted the gold chain hanging from her shoulder with her free right hand, causing the already sparse fabric to sway and making everything appear and disappear.

"Is it now about seduction?"
