What kind of Goddess was Hestia before meeting Bell?
Just look at how she looks now.
They eat too much, eat too much and wait to die. They never stand when they can sit, they never sit when they can lie down, they basically do whatever makes them feel comfortable.
She lacked almost all the features that an abandoned house should have.
No wonder he was kicked out by his friend Hephaestus to fend for himself.
It is estimated that if it continues to develop like this in a few years, it is 80% likely to become a useless god. It is better to starve to death early and return to the Ripper Cyclotron world to bring down the world.
Looking at Hestia's expectant eyes, Allen couldn't help but smile and asked, "Give me a reason to join? Why shouldn't I choose a relatively mature and powerful family like Loki instead of you, Goddess, who can barely support yourself? Or to put it another way, in addition to the favors that all gods can provide, what else can you provide?"
"Um... it seems there is none."
An awkward smile appeared on Hestia's face.
This is also the fundamental reason why she is obviously a genuine Goddess, but she can't even recruit a single family member.
After all, all gods who descend to earth can bestow favors, so when ordinary people choose their dependents, they often tend to sects that already have powerful power.
Once you join such a Familia, not only can you get support and help from the Familia as a novice, but you can also get guidance from senior adventurers, so you don't have to worry about being bullied by other Familia people.
As for the gods who have just descended to earth, they often cannot recruit dependents at all because they are unable to provide the above.
You can only rely on luck to pick up some leftover items picked up by other families on the street, and then start from the bottom to grow and develop bit by bit.
Of course, if you are lucky enough to meet one or two geniuses, then the entire family will rise rapidly in a short period of time.
Although there are few such examples, it is not without precedent in Orario.
Especially before Bell appeared, Freya had already completed a counterattack against Hera Familia by adopting Ottar, who had a terrifying talent.
You must know that this beautiful god was destroyed by the powerful Hera Familia alone, and even he was tied up and humiliated.
This is why, when Zeus and Hera Familia were wiped out by Black Dragon, she was the first to stand up and drive out Orario, their former enemy.
The two sides had a deep hatred a long time ago!
"So! Before you recruit people to build your own clan, you'd better consider these things carefully. Also, if you want to invite me to join, please at least recruit one member with your own strength first."
After saying these words, Allen turned around and disappeared around the corner of the stairs leading to the second floor.
"Hmm... is this some kind of test?" Hestia frowned subconsciously.
After about two or three minutes, she picked up a pen and paper, wrote a recruitment advertisement, and then posted it on the wall outside the store, and marked it in a prominent position at the bottom that this matter had nothing to do with the store.
After posting it, Goddess waited with great anticipation for someone to come to the door.
It's a pity...
Seven or eight days passed, and quite a few people came to buy things, but not even one joined Hestia Familia.
To be precise, no one cares about it at all!
Goddess, who has a childish face and a handsome face, is so despised that no one else can be regarded as such.
"Ahhhhhh!!! I can't stand it anymore! Why? Why? Am I so unattractive?"
Hestia screamed in pain and despair while grabbing his hair.
Allen picked up the cup and took a sip of hot tea, then responded with a smile, "This is not a question of charm or not, but that mortals are often very practical when thinking about problems, that is, what are the benefits that joining the family can bring to themselves. Since you can't give them benefits, you can't blame them for not choosing you."
"Then what do you think I should do?" Hestia asked angrily.
"It's very simple! Select from the losers who have been rejected by other families, and then train them yourself. Only in this way can you complete the transformation from scratch. As for how many of these people can become talents, it depends on how much time and energy you intend to spend to train them." Allen gave his own suggestion with a half-smile.
Just a few minutes ago, he had watched a scene so hilarious that he nearly spit tea out of his nose.
Hestia invited an old man in his fifties or sixties with gray hair to join his family, but he was sternly rejected and ran away.
The expression on Goddess's face at that time was simply wonderful!
Just when Hestia was about to say something, the closed door was suddenly pushed open.
I saw a young man with white hair and red eyes, wearing shabby clothes, slowly walking in from outside. He mustered up the courage to ask in a very shy voice, "Then... um, is this the place where Hestia Familia recruits members?"
"Yeah, yeah! That's right! Boy! I am the Lord God Hestia! You are very discerning!"
Hestia rushed out of the counter excitedly and slapped the other party on the shoulder hard.
"No, it's not that I'm discerning, but that I was rejected by all the other families, so I just tried my luck..."
The young man was obviously an honest man, and he straightforwardly explained his tragic experience.
The implication is that he chose Hestia Familia because he had no choice.
"Pfft hahahaha!"
Allen couldn't help but spit out the tea after hearing this.
no way!
Hestia's reaction in just a few seconds is really interesting.
And he also recognized the little guy who came to his door. He was the protagonist in the original plot - Bell Crony.
No doubt about it!
Bell and Hestia are a match made in heaven.
No one wants one, and no one wants it at all.
It's like two extremely unlucky people getting together and hugging each other for warmth.
"Hey! Have you laughed enough?" Hestia shouted angrily.
Allen quickly covered his mouth, resisting the urge to laugh and responded, "I'm sorry, please continue, I promise not to make any more noise."
"Let's go! Let's go upstairs."
Hestia turned over Byakugan in anger, and dragged Bell to his own room on the second floor.
"Sorry to bother you."
When passing by, Bell did not forget to say hello politely.
Obviously, his appearance means that Loki Familia's first expedition is about to begin.
And the next Orario will fall into endless troubles and disasters one after another.
In particular, the internal conflicts among the gods will become more and more frequent.
"Dungeon, adventurers, families, gods, heretics, and Black Dragon like Invincible. The future is really full of expectations." Allen murmured to himself with a smile.
Just as he was speaking, Lupos, who had been lying in the corner, suddenly opened his eyes and stared at the dark alley opposite the store, seeming to notice something.
