Chapter 26 - Hestia's Token

"Just enough for Hestia to wear. She doesn't seem to have any accessories on her body, which is not good." 

"This necklace is quite beautiful; Hestia will look very good wearing it." Looking at the extremely exquisite necklace, a smile appeared on Aston's face. 

Immediately, Aston picked up all the magic stones on the ground, and then set off on his way back. 

I don't know what time it is now, or if Flat Chest Loki is in the Loki Family. 

"Speaking of which, will this thing I got from Hestia allow me to enter the Loki Familia?" As he hurried on, Aston took a blue string out of his pocket. 

Yes, this string is Hestia's 'original' blue ribbon. 

Aston thought Hestia only had one blue ribbon before, but he didn't expect her to go through the closet and take out a whole box of blue ribbons last night. 

This is what Hestia said to Aston when she gave him the blue ribbon.

"Ask the Gatekeeper to give this to Loki, and this person should meet you." 

"Even though we have a bad fate, if you go with my token, she will see you anyway." 

Yes, the Loki Familia is one of the two great families of Orario, and their main god is naturally not something that a small Familia can see at will. At most, they can see Finn and other leaders. 

Unless Loki herself wanted to see them. 

And even if he met Finn and told him everything about his request, Finn would not directly agree. 

The lower members of Loki's family may not know about the relationship between Loki and Hestia, but Finn definitely does. 

There is no need for Finn to make his god unhappy for a job.

Furthermore, Aston may not be able to afford the amount of money to hire a first-class adventurer as a training partner, given his current wealth and financial resources. 

Therefore, the best option is to go directly to Loki. 

If Loki can do it, it basically means that Loki's family has accepted his mission. 

And just as Aston returned, on the other side, at the headquarters of the Hephaestus Familia, Hestia was in an office with a red-haired beauty wearing a patch over her right eye, a white top, and a black coat. 

This mysterious beauty was none other than Hephaestus, the head God of the Hephaestus Familia. 

Compared to the enthusiasm of Hestia, Hephaestus was speechless. 

Facing the chattering Hestia, Hephaestus interrupted her. 

"I don't care that your Familia members can make potions." 

"But you can consider opening a Pharmacy on Equipment Street. How many brain circuits you got?" Hephaestus sighed. 

"Heh, heh, Aston said the same thing about me this morning." After hearing Hephaestus' words, Hestia playfully stuck out her tongue and said. 

"It doesn't matter to me. As long as you can afford the rent, you can choose any empty shop." 

"But don't blame me if you lose money when the time comes." Hephaestus' eyes without the patch twitched slightly, then warned in advance. 

"Don't worry." 

"If it were morning, I might not be confident, just worried." 

"But now I'm not worried at all." Hestia assured, patting her chest. 

"Eh? Why?" Hephaestus was a bit curious when she heard that.

"Hehe, I sent the potion that Aston made to Miach for shipment." 

"Miach said that the quality of Aston's batch of potion was very high, no weaker than the ones he produced." 

"That's Miach. The potions he makes are very popular, but due to financial constraints, the production volume is not large." 

"Don't you think we won't have to worry about sales if we can get praise from Miach?" Hestia said enthusiastically. 

"But this is Equipment Street." Hephaestus was not surprised to hear this, but instead threw a bucket of cold water on her. 

"I know, but I have faith." 

Hephaestus: "..." 

"I lost to you." 

"But you have a very good Familia, you are very lucky." Although she was a little speechless, Hephaestus was really happy that her friend had gotten such a capable Familia just after founding the Familia.

Now that I think about it, it was very hard when I first established the dependent clan. Since it involved founding the subordinate clan, I had to do everything myself, and I also had to guide the dependents in forging skills and train the dependents. 

Unlike Hestia, her first dependent was so good. Everything was arranged for Hestia, and Hestia could just wait and enjoy it. 

Hestia used to work part-time, but in the last two days she came to talk and spank her every day, she didn't have to help her Familia at all. 

Just thinking about it makes me envious. 

"In that case, it's settled." 

"Hehe." Hearing Hephaestus' words, Hestia understood that she would be opening a shop on Equipment Street. 

"Well, it's settled, don't regret it."

"It's noon now, let's eat together." 

"Good." 

Meanwhile, on the other side, while Hephaestus and Hestia were eating, Aston, who had been traveling for an hour, also returned to the first floor. 

However, upon stepping onto the first floor, Aston was struck dumb. 

Is someone guarding the entrance to the passage? 

What, are you planning to rob? 

This was Aston's first thought as he noticed someone at the exit to the tunnel. 

However, once he clearly saw the person standing not far away, Aston was slightly stunned. 

"Why is this person here!!!" 

The person in front of Aston is someone who is both strange and familiar. She is a waiter in the Hostess of Fertility, as well as the waste elf of the Astraea Familia, Ryuu Lion. 

Although he didn't know why Ryuu was here, Aston had no interaction with her, so he didn't stop there, but kept moving forward, preparing to pass Ryuu. 

He still has to go to the Twilight Pavilion now, there was no time to waste here. 

Unfortunately, as he had no intention of communicating with her, Ryuu took the initiative to stand in front of Aston and stopped him. 

"???"
