Chap16
So I am currently hanging out with Hestia at her stall
Why
Well firstly because the system is offline
Secondly, because I don't want to get into what happened with my level up meeting because it was boring as hell
Thirdly I want to see what my goddess actually does
Drake: so when do you leave here
Hestia: four hours later
Well I am not going to wait that long well let's go have a chat with my partner
Drake: well I'll leave now I need to do some stuff
Hestia: bye Drake kun
She says waving
Drake: bye
I walk towards the Hephaestus Familia and the Newby was about to stop me but someone held him back and told him my identity
Well I guess I don't have to be like a wuxia protagonist and scare everyone after they offend me but the air seems a little different they seem to be like they have seen a star
Well never mind let's talk to our friendly neighbourhood smiting goddess
{ Hephaestus's room}
So I am currently sitting on the couch in her room
Hephaestus: wow didn't know you could brew this good tea
Says Hephaestus sipping on it
Drake: you do know that you are talking to someone who literally made the most popular bar in orario more popular
Hephaestus does not say anything and just finishes her tea
Hephaestus: so what are you here for
Drake: well I am a little bored from the dungeon diving an-
As soon as I was about to continue my next statement Tsubaki busts the door
Tsubaki: goddess we have emergenc-, oh hi Drake
Drake: 'wtf' OK what happened
Hephaestus: what is it Tsubaki
Hephaestus: we have an order from Hermes Familia it's for their captain Asfi Al Andromeda
Hephaestus: what do they want
Tsubaki: she wants a dagger her budget is about 100 million valis she wants it by the end of the week
I look at Hephaestus who has a frustrated look
Drake: can't you deny Hermes
Hephaestus: well I owe him a favour and If I don't do it he will spread rumours about us lacking the ability
Drake: so what are we going to do
Hephaestus: it seems like we will have to cut our time short here I need to forge that weapon
Drake: don't you think you're forgetting something
Hephaestus: what
....
realisation hit Hephaestus
Hephaestus: oh
Drake nods
Hephaestus looks at me with puppy eyes
A trick that I did not think she would have know but
goddamit she looks frickin cute
Drake: you don't have to do that I was going to help you anyways
Hephaestus: thanks Drake I will remember this favour
Drake: na no problem
{ forge}
Drake: so what is the order
Tsubaki: she wants a dagger made out of mithril and adamantite she also wants it so be a growth type
Drake: well I will handle the forging and you handle the growth thingy
Hephaestus: well that requires magic
Drake: sure, sure
{ 6 hours later}
I am currently holding the finished dagger
Carnival Dagger
Rank - B+
A dagger made form mithril and adamantine
Abilities: critical hit - 15% chance to deal double the amount of damage
Drake: well here you go
Hephaestus: thanks
She then does some chanting and words start to appear on the dagger as my runes start to glow and both of them synchronize
Drake: did that just happen
Hephaestus: what happened
Drake: runes don't synchronize like that unless you don't follow the original pattern of the runes or it's not done by the same guy
Hephaestus: what does that mean
Drake: well I don't know either there can be a possibility that your magic is really compatible with my runes and will strengthen them
Hephaestus: and that clear form the dagger I mean normally with your runes it will cost about 10 million but it just skyrocketed after me adding the magic to it
Drake: yep that's at least about a 100 million for the dagger
Hephaestus: thanks Drake I did not expect it to be done very soon
Drake: you're welcome
Hephaestus: so what do you want as compensation
Drake: well not anything right now but I guess we can settle on something later
We both leave the forge and Tsubaki meets us
Tsubaki: oh drake sorry I didn't get to say this but congrats on the level up
Hephaestus: huh
Drake: thanks
Hephaestus: what does she mean
Drake: well I am level 2 now
Hephaestus sighs and says
Hephaestus: why am I not surprised with that
Drake: oh well I think I should leave now or else Hestia sama will cry
Hephaestus: yeah go ahead and take care of her
Drake: bye
