An eye for an eye
Apollo Mansion, located in the southeast, appeared luxurious and grand.
When they arrived, Isao and Hestia knew that this was the home of the Apollo Familia. Still, even if this place was massive, it didn't hinder their intention to fight the Apollo Familia.
Hestia looked at Isao, who was as calm as ever, which made her speechless since they were about to face their hundreds of enemies, yet this guy... was...
'Can you show some anxiety?'
Even though she was his goddess, she felt worthless since she couldn't do anything for him, but not now since they were going to fight together.
Moreover—
Hestia touched her forehead and blushed while showing a silly smile.
"Um... Hestia."
"Ah, yes! Apollo! You are there, right? Open the gate!" Hestia shouted with anger.
Isao took a deep breath, hoping that this goddess of his would-be would be reliable during this critical moment.
As soon as Hestia's voice fell, the gate opened automatically, and they were greeted by all the members of the Apollo Familia, who had been waiting for them, standing right and left, welcoming them, yet from their acts, it was clear that they wanted to give them pressure.
Yet, the two never wavered and pressed forward, even if many of them stared dangerously in their direction.
Then, as they entered, the entrance of the mansion was opened, and Apollo was there, staring at them with his disgusting smile as usual. "Hello, Hestia. What brings you all the way out here?"
Hestia snorted, felt angry, then looked at the small human, or a race known as a Pallum. "Pallum-kun, give me that glove."
"Eh?" Pallum was startled, but he couldn't refuse the request of the goddess.
Even though Hestia might not be strong and her strength was just about normal human strength, her dignified and divine aura couldn't be hidden.
Yes, she might be unreliable usually, but now?
Isao was glad that he had chosen the right goddess.
"O-Okay."
Tremblingly, the pallum gave him his glove, which Hestia snatched and threw into Apollo's face.
Apollo couldn't dodge, or he didn't dodge; either way, the glove fell on his face, yet even with all of that, he kept his disgusting smile.
However, this caused all the members of the Apollo Familia to become nervous and dumbfounded, especially the Pallum, as it was his glove that fell on Apollo's face.
"Fine! I will accept your challenge for the War Game!"
Hearing Hestia's declaration, Apollo couldn't hide his excitement and happiness. "Both deities have agreed! The War Game will take place, everyone!"
"All right!"
"Tell the guild!"
"Call an emergency for Denatus!"
Suddenly, out of many places, many deities came out, seemingly excited for the War Game.
Isao didn't say anything and just remembered all of their faces silently.
"I am so excited!"
"It's been so long!"
Apollo was also excited, and his eyes never looked away from Hestia and Isao, especially Isao, as he licked his lips, watching his unwavering expression, and couldn't wait to break that expression apart on his bed~!
"The rules will be decided fairly in the presence of the gods. I will send you the details later."
Isao didn't bother to look at Apollo since if he looked at him; he was afraid that he would beat the shit out of that god.
"Let's go back, Hestia."
"Um."
Hestia also didn't intend to stay any longer and left with Isao, leaving those silly gods who only wished to see excitement.
Yet, watching all of those gods, Isao wondered whether he would be like that in the future. All of them had been living so long, and they were living with nothing but a pampered life without trouble or fear due to their mighty power and divine body.
Watching their faces, he couldn't wait to go to heaven to devour them, watching them screaming in fear like a pig that was about to be slaughtered.
'No, no!'
Isao felt that he had almost returned to his past, where he wanted to destroy those who caused him trouble. He had decided to become a good person, so he knew that he couldn't be straightforward.
He thought for a while and decided to fix how he was going to say his words.
Oh, he was just going to stop this god from terrorizing poor and pitiful young men and women alike!
'Hmm, that seems good.'
Frankly, if it was in the modern world, Apollo's act was similar to a crime as he harassed, staked, and even used violence, yet, in this world, power was everything.
"So, what should we do now, Isao-kun?" Hestia asked, and all of the bravery she had before had long gone as she wondered what they should do. They had nothing, and they could rely on no one. Only him and her. With all of that, what could they do?
"How long will the War Game begin?"
"Hmm... in a week?" Hestia answered after a moment of thought. "After we have a Denatus... I mean the meeting of all the gods, setting up the rules, and various things, then it should be a week."
"Then, I will go to the dungeon now."
"Eh, now?" Hestia was dumbfounded.
"I am sorry for leaving you alone. I need to prepare."
"It's fine. Just focus on your battle." Hestia then looked at Isao and asked, "But... are you going to fight all of this alone?"
"Yup."
"...." Hestia.
"Don't look at me like that. I know that I must be stupid for challenging the entire Apollo Familia alone, but I just don't want to give up. When I saw their smug and happy smiles when they thought that they would win... I just couldn't help but wish to beat them up." Isao felt helpless because of his small heart and then apologized to Hestia. "Sorry, it seems that I also have a small heart."
Hestia laughed and said, "If anyone was in your place, they would get pissed to death!"
"Thanks."
The two laughed as they walked toward the dungeon together.
One against hundreds.
Even though Isao didn't express his intentions clearly, Hestia knew that this was what he planned to do, but even so, as this was his decision, as her goddess, she was going to support him and believe him.
"Do you want me to level you up first?"
There was a time when Hestia knew that Isao could win against the Apollo Familia, but their time was limited, so she knew that she could only reach Level 2. Even if he stayed in the dungeon for a week, it was definitely impossible for him to reach Level 3. Even if he became a Level 3, could he defeat a hundred opponents?
Yet, Hestia knew that he wouldn't give up.
"No, let's wait till I come out from the dungeon before I level up."
When they reached the entrance of the dungeon, Isao looked at Hestia and said, "I will leave the matter of the Denatus to you. Like how you believe me, I will believe you, Hestia."
"You don't have to worry. I will take everything from Apollo!" Hestia said without hesitation, showing her determination and cruelty to take down Apollo, turning him into a beggar and living in hell!
"When everything is over. Let's have a party."
"...you are really a party boy, aren't you?" Hestia was speechless.
Isao smiled and said, "Then, I will go now."
"Ah, wait!"
"What's wrong?"
"Aren't you forgetting something?"
"Something? Food?"
"I-I mean... a kiss!"
"..." Isao.
"Kiss me, okay? If so, then I will work hard!" Hestia looked at Isao shyly, thinking about the kiss on her forehead before, which gave her a butterfly on her belly.
Was she pregnant?
Oh, no!
'But if it's him...'
Hestia didn't mind at all!
"...." Isao.
Still, Hestia closed her eyes, waiting for his kiss, but Isao only flicked her forehead.
"It hurts!"
She held her forehead and complained. "What are you doing?!" Well, it didn't hurt, but she couldn't help but act this way since Isao didn't act like she wished to.
"Stupid."
"Did you get embarrassed? Aren't you cute, I-sa-o-kun~?"
As his calm expression broke, Hestia couldn't help but tease him.
"...."
If Isao wished to, he could take the virginity of this silly goddess, though.
Still, watching this smug goddess, who thought that she could get the upper hand on him, Isao matched her height by crouching down, lifting her bangs, and then kissing her forehead softly.
"Satisfied?"
"..." Hestia.
"Then, I will go now. See you in six days."
Isao then left and entered the dungeon.
However, Hestia didn't leave and stared at him with a blush, but soon, her expression became solemn since as he was going to fight, she was going to give her everything to fight, too!
Still, as Hestia made up her mind to fight, Isao, who had entered the dungeon, suddenly used his ability to cause the world to stop, and he directly entered the new world.
If Apollo Familia was cheating, then Isao was going to use a similar method.
An eye for an eye.
Isao was going to destroy the Familia of Apollo!
