Capítulo 61: Chapter 60
David led the group deeper into the Hestia Familia's headquarters, his excitement palpable. As they entered the grand foyer, a magnificent statue of Hestia, crafted in gleaming silver, came into view, commanding the attention of all who laid eyes upon it.
Loki's gaze narrowed, her lips curling into a slight pout as she took in the impressive statue. "Well, well, if it isn't Shorty," she murmured, her voice dripping with a hint of jealousy.
Hephaestus and Tsubaki, on the other hand, were captivated by the exquisite craftsmanship. Hephaestus ran her fingers along the smooth surface, her brow furrowed in concentration as she studied the intricate details.
"This is remarkable," Hephaestus breathed, her voice tinged with awe. "The level of skill required to create something of this magnitude is truly impressive."
Tsubaki nodded in agreement, her eyes sparkling with admiration. "I've never seen anything quite like this. The balance, the symmetry, the attention to detail – it's breathtaking."
David beamed, his chest swelling with pride. "Phineas and Ferb, my friends, are the ones responsible for this masterpiece," he revealed, his voice filled with reverence.
Hephaestus blinked, her expression shifting to one of surprise. "Phineas and Ferb? I'm afraid I'm not familiar with those names. They must be seasoned craftsmen of great renown to have accomplished such a feat."
David couldn't help but let out a soft chuckle. "Oh, you'll be quite surprised when you meet them, Hephaestus. They're not at all what you might expect."
David stood back as Hestia descended the grand staircase, her graceful movements drawing the attention of all present. Behind her, a couple of Minions waited dutifully, their eyes filled with adoration for their goddess.
"Welcome, my dear friends!" Hestia exclaimed, her voice brimming with warmth and enthusiasm. She turned her gaze towards Hephaestus, a genuine smile spreading across her face. "Hephaestus, it's so wonderful to see you. I'm so glad you could join us today."
Hephaestus returned Hestia's smile, her own expression softening. "Hestia, the pleasure is all mine. Your headquarters is truly remarkable. Your friends, Phineas and Ferb, have done an outstanding job."
As Hestia's attention shifted to Loki, her expression shifted ever so slightly. A hint of disdain crept into her features, accompanied by a touch of smugness. "Loki," she greeted, her tone laced with a subtle edge.
Loki, ever the perceptive goddess, picked up on the underlying tension. Her brow furrowed as she met Hestia's gaze, the two deities engaged in an unspoken battle of wills. The air between them grew heavy with the weight of their rivalry, a palpable sense of unease settling over the group.
David watched the exchange with a mixture of fascination and concern, his gaze darting between the two goddesses. He could sense the palpable tension.
As the moment stretched on, the other members of the Loki Familia shifted uncomfortably, their eyes darting between Hestia and Loki, unsure of how to diffuse the situation.
Loki, her lips strained in a polite smile, surveyed the grand foyer of Hestia's headquarters. "My, Shorty, you certainly have quite the impressive home here," she remarked, her voice dripping with a hint of condescension.
Hestia's eyes gleamed with a mischievous delight as she watched Loki's forced politeness. "Why, thank you, Loki," she replied sweetly. "I'm so glad you approve. After all, it's only fitting that the Hestia Familia have a headquarters worthy of our growing stature."
Loki's brow twitched ever so slightly, and Hestia couldn't resist the urge to glance down at the Trickster Goddess's chest. "Although, I suppose even the grandest of homes can't make up for certain... deficiencies," Hestia remarked, her tone laced with feigned innocence.
The jibe struck its mark, and Loki's eyes narrowed dangerously. "Oh, Hestia, you always were one to focus on the smallest of details," she retorted, her voice dripping with sarcasm. "Perhaps if you spent less time worrying about my appearance and more time honing your Familia's skills, you might actually stand a chance against us."
The two goddesses glared at each other, the air between them crackling with the intensity of their rivalry. David watched the exchange, his brow furrowed with concern, while the other members of the Loki Familia shifted uncomfortably, unsure of how to diffuse the situation.
Hephaestus cleared her throat, her gaze darting between the two feuding deities. "Ladies, perhaps we could take this discussion somewhere a bit more private?" she suggested, her voice calm and diplomatic.
Loki and Hestia, their eyes still locked in a silent battle, reluctantly tore their gazes away from each other. Hestia, her chin held high, turned to lead the group deeper into the headquarters, while Loki followed, her expression a mask of barely concealed irritation.
David led the Loki Familia members deeper into the Hestia Familia's headquarters, the curious little yellow creatures scurrying about. Tiona, her eyes filled with intrigue, came to stand beside David.
"Hey, where did these little guys come from?" she asked, her voice tinged with excitement. "They're so cute!"
Aiz, ever the observant one, studied the creatures with a pensive gaze. "Are they a new breed of monster?" she inquired, her brow furrowed in contemplation.
David chuckled, shaking his head. "No, no, they're not monsters," he assured them. "I found these little guys and recruited them to join the Hestia Familia. They mostly help with cleaning and running the headquarters."
The Minions, oblivious to the conversation, continued their work, some dusting the shelves while others scurried to fetch supplies. Tiona's face lit up with delight as she watched their antics.
"Aw, they're so helpful!" she exclaimed, reaching down to pat one of the Minions on the head. The Minion squeaked in surprise, but quickly warmed up to Tiona's affectionate touch.
Aiz observed the Minions with a curious expression, her gaze softening ever so slightly. "They do seem quite useful," she acknowledged, her voice soft and contemplative.
David smiled, pleased to see the Loki Familia members taking an interest in the Minions. He knew that their presence would only add to the vibrancy and liveliness of the Hestia Familia's headquarters.
David led the Loki Familia and Hephaestus deeper into the Hestia Familia's headquarters, the group passing through an impressive archway into a grand hallway. Their footsteps echoed against the polished marble floors as they took in their surroundings.
Dominating the center of the room was a long table, laden with an array of dishes that immediately captured the group's attention. The tantalizing scents wafted through the air, enticing their senses.
Lunamon stood beside the table, her eyes bright with anticipation. A few Minions, dressed in crisp butler uniforms, moved gracefully around the table, ensuring everything was perfectly presented.
Hephaestus and Tsubaki, their eyes wide with wonder, approached the table, their gaze sweeping over the unfamiliar dishes. Tsubaki reached out to gently touch a delicate-looking pastry, her fingers tracing its intricate design.
"These are unlike anything I've ever seen," Hephaestus murmured, her voice tinged with awe. "The craftsmanship and attention to detail are truly remarkable."
Tsubaki nodded in agreement, her brow furrowed in concentration. "I've never encountered these particular culinary creations before. The flavors must be exquisite."
Loki and her Familia members followed suit, their expressions a mix of curiosity and anticipation. Tiona's eyes sparkled with delight as she eyed the vibrant dishes, while Bete's usual scowl softened ever so slightly.
David stepped forward, a warm smile spreading across his face. "Please, make yourselves at home," he invited, gesturing towards the table. "Lunamon and the Minions have prepared a feast for us to enjoy."
Hestia, who had been observing the scene with a satisfied expression, stepped forward to stand beside David. "Welcome, my dear friends," she said, her voice laced with genuine warmth. "We are honored to have you here today. Please, sit and indulge in the delicacies we have prepared for you."
Lunamon and the Minions, sensing the cue, scurried forward, pulling out chairs and ushering the guests to their seats. The Loki Familia members and Hephaestus complied, their gazes still fixed on the enticing spread before them.
As they settled into their seats, Lunamon and the Minions began to serve the dishes, offering each guest a sampling of the various culinary delights. Tiona eagerly accepted a plate, her eyes shining with excitement as she took her first bite.
"Wow, this is amazing!" she exclaimed, her voice muffled by the food in her mouth. "I've never tasted anything like this before!"
Aiz, ever the composed one, took a delicate bite, her expression softening with delight. "The flavors are exquisite," she murmured, her gaze meeting Lunamon's with a subtle nod of appreciation.
Bete, who had initially approached the table with a disinterested scowl, found himself unable to resist the temptation. He took a hesitant bite, his eyes widening in surprise as the flavors exploded on his tongue.
"Not bad," he grunted, his gruff demeanor betrayed by the faint hint of a smile tugging at the corners of his lips.
Hephaestus and Tsubaki, their own plates filled with an array of the unfamiliar dishes, exchanged an impressed glance. Tsubaki took a delicate bite, her eyes sparkling with delight.
"Truly remarkable," Hephaestus breathed, her gaze sweeping over the table. "The level of skill and innovation required to create these culinary masterpieces is astounding."
David, his own plate in hand, beamed with pride. "I'm so glad you're all enjoying the meal," he said, his voice filled with genuine warmth. "After we've had our fill, I'd be happy to give you a tour of the headquarters. There's so much more to see."
The group nodded in agreement, their attention now fully captivated by the delectable dishes before them. Hestia and David exchanged a satisfied look, content to see their guests thoroughly immersed in the experience.
