Chương 140: Under the moonlight
Isao's sudden interruption shattered the tranquility of the dinner, drawing everyone's attention. Yet he remained composed, facing the crowd and offering an unexpected proposition. "I apologize for the disruption to your dinner, so let me apologize by treating all of your dinner tonight, and we shall celebrate with a grand party!"
His gestures, voices, and everything.
He was ready to go all out for tonight's party!
"...."
Everyone blinked their eyes before they roared in excitement.
"OOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH!!!"
Still, while the guests were happy, Hestia, Eina, Syr, Mia, and the other waitresses stared at Isao speechlessly, who pulled Hyakinthos, who passed out closer to Mia.
"Mama, I am sorry for fighting here. Hyakinthos here told me that he wanted to cover everything, whether the damage to your pub or everyone's dinner." Isao then looked at Hyakinthos and asked, "Right, Hyakinthos-kun?"
"Un."
While the voice wasn't like Hyakinthos's, Hyakinthos nodded obediently before Isao let him lie on the bar since he seemed to be sleepy.
"What a kind young man Hyakinthos is..." Isao murmured, thinking that he had to put more effort into becoming a good person or else Hyakinthos would beat him!
"...." Everyone.
"So, Mama, you don't have to worry." Isao looked at Mia with a gentle smile.
Mia looked at Isao helplessly and waved her hand. "You can go back."
"Thanks. I love you, Mama! If I am born earlier, I will pursue you!"
"....." Mia.
Isao then quickly picked up Hestia and Eina. "Let's go back."
"Um." 2x
The two quickly nodded, but when they were about to leave, Syr quickly stopped him. "Isao-kun, are you going to be okay?"
Isao stopped and looked at Syr with a composed smile. "I will be fine. You don't have to worry. More importantly, I am sorry for troubling you all. I owe you all. If you need my help, just tell me. Then, we'll leave first."
He no longer lingered and quickly left with Eina and Hestia.
While the guests were having a party, Mia, Syr, and the other waitresses looked at Isao's back helplessly since they knew that his problem was far from over.
"Eina, let me send you back first."
Yet Isao didn't know their thoughts and focused on sending Eina home first.
Still, Eina couldn't just go home like this and asked worriedly. "Are you going to be fine, Isao-kun?"
"I will be fine. You don't have to worry. You should rest and sleep tight tonight. More importantly, I am sorry for letting you see that scene before."
"No, no. It's fine..." Eina shook her head gently, then said with a blush. "You were kind of cool before..."
"...."
Cool?
Not cruel?
Isao wondered what was on the head of this half-elf.
Yet, as he reassured Eina that everything was going to be alright, they arrived at Eina's home.
"You should stay."
"No, I don't want to impose on you. We'll go back first."
"Ah..."
Eina couldn't stop him since Isao had already left with Hestia on his arm, which he held like a doll.
"What are you being all serious about? Smile, okay? You are more beautiful that way."
Isao pulled Hestia's cheek with a smile, causing her to look at him at a loss.
They had just provoked the Apollo Familia, yet this guy could smile like this.
"D-Do you think we will be okay?"
Hestia might be a poor goddess with nothing but a beautiful face and boobs, but even so, she wasn't stupid. She knew that at that moment, they were about to face a disaster that they couldn't imagine.
While Isao was a Level 1 and the only one within her Familia, Apollo had a total of more than a hundred members of Familia, and many of them were High-Class Adventurers!
Did he think that they would be okay?
Hestia didn't even think they could do anything against the Apollo Familia.
Only—
"Then, do you want me to do nothing and let them mock you?" Isao asked.
Hestia nodded as she showed a gentle smile at him. "As long as you are fine, then I am fine."
Yes, as long as Isao was with her, even if she was mocked like that, she was fine. Moreover, they told the truth since she was a useless goddess who could do nothing except mooch on him.
"Stupid."
Isao made a direct chop on Hestia's forehead.
"It hurts!" Hestia quickly covered her head with a crying face.
"You might be fine with it, but I am not fine with it." Isao looked at Hestia with a sad expression and said, "Watching you endure everything, sad and crying, I can't bear all of that. When you are with me, such days will no longer exist.
"Moreover, you are the goddess that I have chosen. How can I allow anyone to mock you like that?"
If someone could mock Hestia for being useless, it would only be him!
"I-Isao...." Hestia's tears streamed down like a river. Her feelings were overflowing, and they couldn't be stopped anymore, but at the same time, she was still worrying about whether she was worthy of him.
"Now, will you doubt that I will leave your Familia in the future?"
"I..."
Hestia was like a child who was being found out to have done something wrong. She knew that Isao must have noticed that she felt inferior when she was with him, especially when she knew that he could have chosen a better Familia.
With his nature, wit, appearance, power, and everything, if Isao didn't join her Familia, then he could have a smooth adventure without being burdened by her.
"Now, after I have provoked the Apollo Familia, no gods or goddesses will accept me into their Familia. I have nowhere to go, and you are the only one to rely on. Take responsibility for me, okay? Don't be a scumbag."
Isao looked at Hestia with a reprimanded expression, like a woman who was afraid for her man to leave her after he made her pregnant.
"I will! I will take your responsibility forever until death parts us!"
Hestia cried as she said those vows loudly.
"...that's a bit heavy. I don't want that."
"No! Your goddess can only be me! No one can take you away from her!"
Yes, she had made up her mind.
Even if they die, no matter what, they will be together!
Even if she was inferior, so what?
She believed that she could support him and they would grow together!
"....."
Isao let out a helpless sigh, feeling helpless by her heavy love, and this made him wonder whether he could achieve his dream of helping all of those women in need in this world.
"I love you! I love you! I love you!"
"Enough, you are going to wake up those who are sleeping."
"I love you!"
"I know. I know."
Isao decided to give up and let her continue to talk like a broken radio.
Under the moonlight, with him holding her in his arms, Hestia hugged him tightly with a beautiful smile, never letting him go, wishing for the time to continue forever.
"Isao..."
"Hmm?"
"I love you."
"I know."
How about you?
Yet, Hestia didn't say the words in her heart since as long as he was with her, she was satisfied, and she knew that everything would be okay since he told her he would stay with her.
Still, she thought for something and asked unsurely, "Do you like a woman like Mama?"
If so, then she would build her muscles!
"....." Isao.
Yet, as expected, even though Isao had reassured them that everything would be okay, the situation wasn't okay at all, especially the next day when the guild summoned Hestia Familia for the injuries that had been inflicted on the Apollo Familia!
