Rescue Team

Hestia, Hephaistios, Miach, Takemikazuchi and Artemis.

In an abandoned church inside the Orario. to be precise, a place of Hestia Familia. Gathered the Gods mentioned and at the podium stands was the smallest of them all, Hestia. Along with Adventurers, such as Mikoto, Chigusa and Ouka and three others whose name is unknown is in front of her.

These six are all member of Takemikazuchi Familia. Along with the one who was dragged by Artemis herself, Zetta.

It was the time when he and Hestia eyes met. Hestia grinned and thereafter Artemis are looking for him and drag him to where they are right now.

"Damn it.." he cursed out for the Nth time. He shouldn't be here but what choice does he have? Looking at her worried Goddess, Zetta asks "what is actually happened?"

But it was Hestia who speaks first. Mikoto and co. kneeled on the ground in dogeza, pleading for Hestia. "Its alright. Please stand up" she said in a lower voice

"If anything happens, I will blame you but I won't hate you. But still.. I was sure he is still alive as my blessing are still in effect. So I'm sure he's alright" her hand touches her chest as serene as her voice

her speech made Zetta shivered, 'she can do that kind of speech? I thought she's just an unruly brat' as he look at his Goddess again. It was then when he learned that the sole member of Hestia Familia, along with the member of Hephaistios Familia are missing and was still supposedly inside the dungeon and/or trap by the monsters.

"A party of 3 and the remaining one of them is pallum and a member of Soma Familia?" Listening to his mumble, all of the audience eye stop unto him.

"Well, their party is odd, that's why I remembered them. But never in my wildest dream have they met any predicament and—" He then remembers that Bell Cranel is from Hestia Familia, he then look at Tekemikazuchi Familia.

"Pass Parade" it was Hestia who explained it with only two words. 'make sense then' Zetta then look at the 3 who pleased just now. And so before they could finish their meeting, another deity came rushing, along with his attendant; Asfi, a level 4 adventurer. Their eyes met but Asfi was passive and didn't made a move or ask him like the others. Her God named Hermes, found himself talking about being Hestia's friend and wanted to help. But in the end all he want, is to enter the dungeon and was interested on Bell Cranel.

'Fishy' Zetta thought so.

Of all Gods, even in his past world, Hermes was his favourite God because of its cunningness, a fast thinker and could trick anyone even gods, he even named his MOBA account as 'Hermes'. A deity who also called a 'Trickster' that the norse Loki cannot be compared with. well, who knows if he's more cunning than the Goddess Loki.

And so just like that, Zetta knew that there are something fishy about Hermes. especially his remarks that he too are coming for the rescue with others. the Unruly Hestia did the same after hearing his intention, while Artemis looked at Zetta like that of a child who wanted to be pampered. "No Goddess, if anything happens I cannot save the 3 of you at once!"

"You don't have to worry about me. I have Asfi here. But could you also save Hestia if worst comes to worst?" Hermes joined their conversation. Consecutively, Zetta shake his head "I prioritize my Goddess' more than anything even over my life. So I can't assure her life"

Hestia also look at him and at Hermes as if saying 'please, find another method!'. And just so like that Hermes sighs heavily in defeat.

"Alright. seems like we need more help, lets seek the help of the Gale, then." like that, the Party went towards the Hostess of Fertility.

After a couple of minutes, Hermes went out along with an elf covering whole body with green cloak from the backdoor of said tavern. Zetta curiously asks "mind if I test of something?", thereafter, the 'Gale' then slash his throat but was missed by milimeter as he teleported 3 meters away.

'This guy. is fast! But before that. what was that feeling? Did he just cursed me?'

"I don't know what you're thinking but it didn't harm you, so do not be hostile. You can say that as a small welcome" Zetta said to not cause misunderstandings after watching her twisted face and a face of a killer.

Asfi only look at him in curious and thought 'so that's how it is, huh', remembering the feeling of being peaked naked the last time.

<Level 4>

<Ryu Lion>

Is what her status said after appraising her. 'The f*ck!? She's faster than Ais without using her Ariel in burst moment?!' Is what Zetta think.

Of all the level 4 he appraised, she was the strongest, maybe about to break to level 5. That even Asfi of Hermes Familia cannot be compared.

So, maybe she'll be able to break to level 5 in the near future.

And after that, they started to venture inside the dungeon while Hephaestuss, Miach and Takemikazuchi sent them away.

They consist of Adventurer, namely Zetta, Asfi, Ryu, Ouka, Mikoto, Chigusa along with three Gods Hermes, Hestia and Artemis.

Three Gods have themselves cover so none can identify them while Artemis at the same time had her bow given by Zetta. Thanks to this, she has more kills than her escorts.

"As expected from the Goddess of the Hunt" Hermes commented from the sideline and clasp his hand.

Zetta didn't bother by his lip service and instead take the lead along with Asfi and Ryu. He sometimes look at the others, as Mikoto from Takemikazuchi Familia cannot contain her frustration.

"Have faith" Zetta muttered, teleported from her side, enough to hear by her.

"He's alive. that Boy is alive, I assured you", cannot believe what she hears, she look at Zetta but he was long since distanced himself away.

Why Zetta knew is because he have the log of all the Adventurer he appaised. and those who die turned to shaded grey while alive are green and unconcious are turned to yellow. Bell is alive while the other two are still unconcious. So they are either already rescued or taking a rest somewhere that monsters cannot reach.

And after realizing something— "there was a chance they are at the 18th floor by now" it was Asfi who said the word.

With few deductive arguments, everyone finally nodded in agreement.

After all, to those who are injured, it is more effective and faster to drop themselves down than to walk a path upwards.

With this conclusion, they made haste..
