"Negotiations directly with the gods..."
"This is the power of Lord Baili..."
"The deity who changed our destiny is the same no matter where he is!"
Rias, Mai, and Asia spoke in turn.
The most valuable sentence is probably about the deity who changed my destiny.
Could it be...
Is the god of fate deleting the strange 2 c Ersi 84?
Neither Hestia nor Hephaestus asked any questions.
Because Baili seized the right to speak at this moment.
"The matter is settled, there's no need to say more. Instead, tell me about your experiences in the dungeon, and I'll update your data panel later."
Baili had no intention of continuing the discussion about becoming the guild leader.
The girls didn't press him further after hearing what he said.
"That's a long story."
Rias couldn't help but laugh.
Mai, sitting next to him, softly echoed.
"There is indeed a lot to discuss, especially regarding the use of weapons."
"The whole process went very smoothly."
Asia provided a full summary in advance.
Hearing these words, Hephaestus also became interested.
After all, she personally crafted the weapons used by the girls, so naturally she wanted to hear their feedback and how the weapons fared in actual combat.
So Rias and the other two began to recount their adventure in the dungeon that day.
After the girls finished recounting their adventures in the dungeon, Baili had some food and drink brought to them.
His order as guild leader was quickly relayed, and within minutes, someone delivered Orario's best and most expensive snacks, wines, and drinks to the lounge.
Looking at the table full of delicious food in front of her, Hestia didn't know where to start.
Since descending to the mortal realm, before encountering Baili, Hestia, who had been driven away by Hephaestus, had been living a very impoverished life.
Unfortunately, the income from selling potato balls, fried dumplings, and dolls every day wasn't enough for her to live a carefree life.
Not to mention achieving financial freedom.
Things are different now!
I got a very valuable magic stone from Baili!
Hestia simply changed her base and bought new furniture.
She knew her job as a tour guide wasn't worth the magic stone, but Hestia was willing to give more in return for Baili.
"Thank you for your hospitality, Mr. Baili."
Hephaestus then expressed her gratitude.
Hestia looked over.
Now she has a problem...
It seems that his friend has special feelings for Baili.
That's most likely love at first sight or something like that.
Therefore, Hestia hoped that her act of repaying the debt would not be misunderstood by Hephaestus.
She didn't want to become her friend's rival in love...
"Please try this, Mr. Baili."
The blonde girl then placed a pastry on Baili's plate.
Hestia looked over.
Compared to her, Hephaestus's real rivals are the three girls who accompany Baili.
"Baili-jun, do you plan to use those clothing coupons today?"
Holding the cake in her hand, Rias asked with a half-smile.
This statement piqued Mai's curiosity.
She could spend a lot of time thinking about which clothes to buy.
Unlike the reverse bunny girl outfits she wore in the past, Mai chose many medieval-style, highly seductive costumes this time.
"I think it will be tonight."
Baili also wanted to have a fun dress-up show.
You can try out all the medieval costumes: knights, princesses, maids, nuns, waitresses, and dancers.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
After Baili responded, Eina appeared at the door.
She looked at Baili, who was enjoying a meal with the girls, and first bowed.
"Excuse me, Mr. Baili."
"It's nothing, Eina. Tell me what you wanted to see me about?"
"Another guest has requested an audience. She is the chief deity of the Demeter Familia, Lady Demeter."
"This is unexpected. Let her in."
After Baili gave his permission, Eina left the room.
"Another deity?"
Asia tilted her head, looking adorable.
Hestia, while showing off her milk cake, said with certainty...
"The Demeter Familia is a commercial family that grows and sells fruits and vegetables. They own vast farmlands on the outskirts of the city and make a significant contribution to Orario's food supply."
"Demeter's Familia has a great influence on the city and is one of the very few main gods who have the right to freely enter and leave Orario. In the past, it was even called the pillar of Orario along with Zeus's Familia and Hera's Familia. If it weren't for the existence of this benevolent god's faction, Orario would face a large-scale famine even if it didn't collapse."
Hephaestus put down her coffee cup and spoke of the importance of the clan.
After listening, the girls understood the significance of the distinguished guest who had come.
After a while, Demeter came to the door and knocked.
dong dong dong.
After Baili let the other party in, everyone looked over.
The first thing that catches the eye is Demeter's long, golden-orange hair, a color that perfectly embodies her identity as the goddess of agriculture and fertility, reminiscent of a golden wheat field shimmering in the autumn harvest.
These soft strands of hair fell naturally over her shoulders, swaying gently with her steps, radiating a tender maternal glow.
At this moment, Demeter is wearing a loose, long dress, which appears to be made of the finest linen or silk. The dress is green, a color that symbolizes the vitality of the earth, and is embroidered with patterns of various grains and fruits.
These elements all emphasize her status as the goddess of grain.
Demeter, who was usually gentle to others, looked worried at the moment.
She entered the room, looked at the lively scene, and then looked around.
"Excuse me... where is Guild Master Royman?"
"Didn't they tell you? I, Baili, am now the president of the Adventurers' Guild, starting today."
"Ugh?!"
Demeter looked surprised.
But she quickly recovered.
She immediately ran to Baili and took his hand.
"Please, Mr. Baili!"
This action caused Rias and the other two girls to reveal the eyes of those who had spotted their prey.
At the same time, Hephaestus, who was not far away, was watching Demeter.
Noticing this, Hestia quickly grabbed Demeter's clothes and pulled her to sit down on the side.
"Let's talk this out calmly, don't resort to violence."
"I'm sorry..."
After adjusting her mood, Demeter then explained her purpose.
This morning, her retinue went to the dungeon to find special fertile soil enhanced by magic stones, which is said to be able to cultivate even better grains.
An unexpected outcome occurred...
A young girl from the clan who had escaped told her everything.
"The group headed to the middle level of the dungeon, which was the seventeenth level, but they had bad luck there and ran into the floor master, Goliath."
Demeter quickly added
“There are currently five people trapped in the cave on the seventeenth floor, and Goliath is patrolling outside, so the people who were separated from the main group came to me and explained the situation.”
"To summarize, your five members of your clan are trapped in a cave with no escape route by Goliath, awaiting rescue?"
“That’s right. The person who came back to report emphasized that the cave was quite sturdy, and it would take Goliath some time to break in. So after hearing the report, I came straight to the guild, hoping to issue a special request so that the adventurers could set off immediately.”
At this point, Demeter became anxious and looked at Baili with a look of urgency.
“I can issue an emergency request, but… Miss Demeter, didn’t you find anyone just now? There are still many adventurers in the guild hall right now, aren’t there?”
"No one is willing to accept this urgent request."
"Because the enemy is very strong..."
