5 Lucky

From the god's point of view, Hestia was a pretty good friend, but when it came to the development of her Familia, Hestia got a very low rating. She had even tried to persuade new people to join her Familia. Hestia came into the world too late, so she barely had any capital to attract new members. Even among adventurers, her judgment was not so good.

As Hestia's sworn enemy, Loki was well aware of Hestia's abilities. That useless fellow, can now find Familia members? Is this a joke?

Loki quickly darted in front of Altair, looking him up and down with her eyes wide open. Meanwhile, Altair was also observing Loki.

It had been a long time in Orario, and this was the first time Altair had met Loki. In the anime, Loki looked flat, but upon seeing her in person, Altair felt that Loki was even flatter than he imagined!

"Hmmm, why do I feel you're thinking bad thoughts?"

Loki narrowed her eyes, suddenly speaking, making the corners of Altair's mouth twitch slightly. He just thought to himself, how could she possibly sense that? Is this the power of a god?

"Hmm, not anymore."

Loki pinched her chin, looking at Altair with a tilted head. Admittedly, Altair chose Saber's face correctly. The cheerful handsome man's look made Loki quite impressed.

"It looks like you really are a handsome man. Why are you interested in this chibi? Are you not talented enough?"

"Hey! Altair-kun has an amazing talent!"

Hestia was not satisfied with Loki's judgment, and immediately interjected, standing between Altair and Loki, looking at Loki with eyes full of protest.

"This matter, Hephaestus knows it very well."

"Hephaestus?"

Loki turned her head towards Hephaestus, who gave an approving nod.

"Right, I told you before, right? I also wish Altair was a member of my Familia, but alas, he is not."

"Talent in the smithing?"

Loki looked surprised at Altair, then even more confused.

"Then why did he choose you?"

"Hohohoho!"

Hestia proudly lifted her chest.

"Of course, it was my charms that lured Altair-kun. I'm telling you, he came to me himself and asked to join my Familia!"

"What!"

Loki grew even more surprised, staring at Hestia's breasts. Hestia's charm? In her opinion, it must be there, otherwise, what else does Hestia have?

"If that also counts, there are many people in Orario who are more charming than you!"

Loki did not accept. Just because her breasts were big? Hestia was not the biggest in Orario, so why would Altair choose her? Didn't he know what her reputation was among adventurers?

Feeling incredulous, Loki thought Hestia must be deceiving her, so she focused her gaze on Altair.

"Altair, won't you join me? There are also many alluring ones here... Aih!"

Again Riveria hit Loki squarely on the head with her staff. Holding her head, Loki could not help but complain.

"Mom, don't always hit my head."

"I'm not your mother."

Riveria expressionlessly retracted her staff.

"Besides, I also do not allow you to use our Familia members as a cover. Even you wouldn't believe that yourself, would you?"

As anyone who knows Loki knows, she likes pretty girls. So using her female Familia members to attract people is just a joke.

"How about it, Altair? Want to join me? My Familia is the strongest in Orario."

Even though it was just a joke, Loki still tried to get Altair to join. If Hephaestus wanted him, his talent in smithing must be great. If her Familia had a blacksmith, there would definitely be a great improvement.

"Hey, Loki!"

Hestia vigilantly stared at Loki, but Loki did not care and kept staring at Altair with narrowed eyes. Seeing Loki ignoring her, Hestia did not mind, instead crossing her arms in front of her chest and standing in front of Altair confidently.

"Sorry, Loki-sama, I will not leave Hestia. After all, I came here because of Hestia herself."

Altair placed his hand on Hestia's shoulder, smiling while rejecting Loki's offer.

"You really came for her, huh. I thought this chibi was just tricking me."

'Tsk, tsk, tsk. Loki, you don't understand. This is my wife! The girl with bangs, twin pigtails, and big breasts, three attributes rolled into one, is absolutely perfect! I will always like Hestia."

"Well, even if I just try, I can already guess your answer."

Loki did not care. There were already many talents in her Familia. Altair seemed like a good person, so trying to recruit him was fine too. Being rejected did not matter either.

"Hmph, Loki! Altair-kun loves me more. He won't be interested in you!"

Hearing Altair directly reject Loki, Hestia was pleased and raised her chin proudly.

"Alright, alright, I'll go first. I don't have time to argue with you. I still have to celebrate with my children."

Without saying much, Loki pulled Riveria up and left. Nearby, there was Loki's Familia table. Today, they too had just returned from an underground expedition to celebrate the victory.

The classic show-off moments that usually happened did not appear, especially the part of Bete the werewolf, as he had never met Altair. The story is different from the one in the original version.

This time, Altair and Loki were just acquainted, nothing more.

"Damn, she really is a disappointing person."

Seeing Loki leave, Hestia grumbled, then happily pulled Altair and Hephaestus back to their table. They were also going to celebrate.

However, as Loki and Riveria left, their attention remained on Altair.

"Hey, Mom, did you see that?"

"Yes, I saw it. That guy was moving really fast. He was sitting at first, but when he separated you from Hestia, he was already behind Hestia in an instant. That speed, almost as fast as Ais."

Ais Wallenstein, the Sword Princess, was a Level 5 adventurer in Loki Familia. As a Level 5, she had the wind ability which made her extremely fast when acting. She was also one of the main characters in the original story.

However, for Ais to reach that speed, she had to use Ariel. As for Altair earlier, Riveria didn't sense any magic or spells, so Altair didn't use any skills. If only by physical ability, he was able to move that fast and control it very well.

"That kid, really talented."

A small smile played on Loki's lips.

"Hestia really got lucky this time."
