Arriving at the church again, I heard a very familiar voice.
I walked in and found Bell in the room along with Hestia. He was sitting on the couch drinking so tea while Hestia rubbed her body against him with a smile. Bell had a silly smile on his face as if he didn't care.
Man, I always dread of being in his shoes. If it were , I would take the opportunity!
I pushed the perverted thoughts out of my mind and then approached the couch with a smile. Bell stood up and greeted . "It's my pleasure. My na is Bell." He extended his hand. He looked embarrassed.
"Oh, it's a pleasure. My na is Luan." I shook his hand. He scratched his head and was silent, not knowing what to say.
"Hestia told about you."
"Oh yes. I was the first mber of her familia."
"Yes, I know that."
"Would you like to sit down?" He got out of my way and let sit on the couch. Of course, I didn't miss the opportunity and sat down next to Hestia. Her scent was pleasant, and because of the tiny space, her soft body was touching mine.
She watched our awkward interaction, so she didn't bother by my body touching hers.
Bell had sat next to .
"You guys should talk more. Bell, I told you to be more spontaneous; you get so embarrassed when talking to people." Hestia pouted.
"Is..."
"I'm soone easy to talk to. So how about we talk about the tower? I know you're a pretty focused boy, right?"
"A little... I'm not that strong; there's soone much stronger than that I want to reach." Bell scratched his cheek, a little embarrassed. Wait, so that scene already happened? Did he et Ais?
Hestia was annoyed, so I can imagine it happened. But it's strange because he wasn't surprised when he ca out of the portal and saw her... Maybe he was distracted and didn't notice her?
"I understand. I'm sure that you will evolve quickly." His ability "Liaris Freese" was a very powerful thing. Hestia must already know about this but didn't tell him, just like in the story.
So after that, we talked a little more about the tower, and he told about the mishap he had a few days ago with the minotaur. As he counted, I could see that he was pretty scared.
Hestia looked like she wanted to throw herself on top of him to calm him down. It's going to be hard to get her that way. I need to find so way to get her interested in . This will be a little difficult.
Maybe I should go after other won for now.

Bell had brought sothing to eat, so we had dinner. It was still getting dark, so I wasn't sleepy. As for Bell, he went to his room and lay down after a shower.
When I saw him coming out of the shower, I rembered that I hadn't brought my clothes with . I am an idiot, aren't I? I will need to spend a lot of money buying new clothes.
Hestia even offered Bell so clothes, but they wouldn't fit . He's so much smaller than .
So I took a shower and put on the sa clothes. Luckily I wasn't stinking despite the clothes being a little dirty. After I finished my shower, I sat on the couch with Hestia.
She was reading sothing that looked like a book. I didn't rember Hestia being soone interested in reading.
"What are you reading?"
"A children's story."
"Do you like that sort of thing?"
"Not really. I found it dumped in this church and kept it. I decided to read it since I have nothing to do."
"I see. I enjoy reading, but only specific genres."
"And what are these genres?" Hestia set the book aside and straightened her posture on the couch. She looked straight at . I didn't look away and kept looking into her eyes.
"Fantasy, action, sothing like that."
"Like history books of the gods?"
"Maybe?" I had never actually read them. Do they exist? Books that tell the story of the Gods and the Tower? Probably...
"I see. So what was your job before coming to this city to beco an adventurer? You don't look like so peasant who lived in so remote village."
"Because of my clothes?"
"That's right."
"Well, how can I explain..." Is there any way to explain that I ca from another world? No, not. "I used to work at a restaurant in another city." That was a pretty stupid lie.
'Wait a second, can't Hestia detect lies?' I started to sweat as soon as I rembered that.
"Ohh! In which city? Maybe I've already visited!" Hestia said excitedly.
"...Let's forget about it, all right?" I gave a smile, and Hestia pouted.
"Right~~" She got up from the couch and walked away. After drinking so water, she went to the bedroom.
Couldn't she see that this was a lie? Wait for a second. Am I immune to the Gods' lie detection?
Hestia seed to have believed .
'Looks like my bed is this sofa. Well, what do I do now?' I left the church and walked a little down the street. It was already night, and I could hear people's voices everywhere. There seed to be several parties nearby.
But I only had 400 Valis, and I don't think I could enjoy a party with that amount. But maybe I can buy a drink.
"I miss drinking so alcohol."
I approached the nearest bar. It had a few tables and an ample counter. It wasn't the sa place Bell visited in that scene where he heard Ais and Bete's conversation, it was a different place.
There, a bartender was serving so n.
"Excuse , can you get a nice drink for 400 Valis?" I asked him.
"Clear!" The bartender responded excitedly. I continued sitting on the bench, waiting for my drink, until a girl approached. She had tanned skin and long black hair. Her eyes were golden as a nugget of gold, and her eyelashes were thick. She had a beautiful appearance.
She wore a very revealing outfit.
'An amazoness?'
