Her silver eyes, her voluptuous breasts, and her slender waist were wrapped in a heavenly evening gown. Her every movement inadvertently revealed a myriad of emotions.
With Freya's appearance, the atmosphere of the banquet reached its climax.
However, unlike most of the gods and adventurers who were stunned, Shesta only had a hint of surprise, and Yuriko just glanced at her before looking away.
As for the three little girls, they were not interested at all.
"Not as good looking as Daddy!"
Yui muttered as she held a crystal glass full of juice that was too big for her.
Misaka Misaka and Flandre seconded this suggestion.
Hestia's twin ponytails shook violently, and she raised her face that was intoxicated by the food. The High God noticed Bale's somewhat infatuated gaze when he looked at Freya.
She grabbed the fork in her hand and threw it at Bale's head.
"Bale, you can't look at Freya."
"Huh?"
Hestia looked at Freya with disdain and then pouted. "If the children stare at the Beauty Goddess, they will be charmed and become her captives."
The Beauty Goddess, regardless of whether it was a god or a mortal, would be charmed by her without exception. She was the embodiment of beauty.
"She's not necessarily that beautiful."
Yuriko suddenly laughed.
"Not to mention Young Master Mo, even Elven King Isa Iseria Seaward, who I've seen a few times, is comparable to this Beauty Goddess."
Hestia shook her twin ponytails again. "I'm getting more and more curious about the one you're talking about."
"Ah, we'll definitely meet, I believe."
Yuriko Onigata said.
However, although most of the people on Hestia's side did not see Freya's appearance, the other members who were assigned to the banquet were all charmed by Freya.
She did not discriminate between gender, race, or rank.
"Including Ganisa's banquet, this is the second time … It's rare for Freya to appear in public like this."
"Oh, what's going on?"
Hearing Hephaestus's murmur, Yuriko turned her head and asked.
"Freya usually stays on the top floor of the [Tower of Babel] and never shows up in front of others. Look around —"
Hephaestus pointed at the male gods in the hall with disdain in her eyes.
"Many of these fellows joined the banquet with the hope of meeting Freya. You can see how much she's been living in seclusion."
Freya's gaze suddenly turned towards them.
His eyes paused on every member of [Hestia's Clan] for a while, and then he showed a charming smile.
Freya's high heels clicked on the marble floor as she walked towards Hestya and the others.
"I didn't expect to see you here, Hestea and Hephaestus. We haven't seen each other since the meeting, right?"
"Freya, what are you doing here?"
Hastia stood in front of Yuriko, Yui and the others and made a vigilant gesture, as if she was a little hen protecting her children from being eaten by an eagle.
"It's nothing. I'm just here to say hello. After all, it's not easy to see these faces, so I thought I could get to know them. "
Freya said as she walked past Hestya's petite body and stopped in front of the three maidservants.
Before she could say anything, another figure stood in front of her.
Yuriko had a dangerous aura as she squinted at Freya with her slender, blood-red eyes.
"Oh? This child is also yours, isn't it? Is her name Yuriko? "
Freya's gaze landed on Yuriko, her eyes flashing with admiration.
"What a fascinating soul. In the midst of loneliness and darkness, there's a warm glow …"
Yuriko's eyes widened.
If it weren't for the fact that this was a gathering of the gods, Yuriko felt that she would have taught this ungrateful woman a lesson.
"Behave yourself!!!!!"
Hestia screamed and jumped to her feet, pulling Freya away.
"You're still the same, Hastia."
Freya grinned mischievously. After fully enjoying Hestea's reaction, she simply withdrew her hand.
"Seems like I've made Hastia unhappy. I should go now. See you next time."
After saying that, Freya left with a circle of gods surrounding her, ignoring Hastia and the other gods present.
"— That pervert came to find trouble so quickly."
A teasing voice sounded.
"Loki!?"
"Yo, little one, you're still wearing a formal dress. It must have been hard for you to tiptoe the whole time."
It was Loki and his spawn, Aithe, who walked over.
The red-haired goddess was clearly a female, but she was wearing a man's formal dress. Aithe, who was beside her, shyly tugged at her light green formal dress from time to time.
"When did you get here, you bastard? Why is there no movement at all?! "
"What are you talking about? I also walked in in high spirits! It's just that the limelight was stolen by that rotten chest! "
Loki pursed his lips, and Hastia immediately snickered at him.
"Oh, breasts … No wonder you're wearing a man's formal dress! Oh, hehehehehe … "
Loki's face darkened on the spot.
"Ah! Little one, do you want to fight? "
"Come on, come on! I'll kill you with my chest! "
Hastia purposely let her chest show off in front of Loki, and the gods around her were speechless.
The two goddesses put their foreheads together and glared at each other. There was a faint crackling sound at the intersection of their gazes.
In the end, the goddesses separated and snorted. Loki turned around and prepared to leave.
"Let's go, Aithe!"
Aithe bowed apologetically to the crowd and then followed Loki's footsteps.
⑧
After Loki left, gods who knew and didn't know each other came up to greet him one after another.
With the rise of Yuriko and the others, Hestia gradually became one of the most popular gods in the world.
Yuriko was not interested in this kind of social interaction and focused on taking care of her three children. So Shasta and Bell were pulled over to make appearances.
"— Everyone, is the banquet still enjoyable?"
After a while, the host, Apollo, finally made his appearance.
With his followers, Apollo walked up to Hastia and the others like stars surrounding the moon.
The dance music reverberating in the room stopped. For a moment, it was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
"It's my greatest honor to have everyone enjoy themselves. This banquet was not held in vain."
The other guests present also stopped their discussions and looked over, gradually gathering around.
After the greetings, Apollo, who was wearing a laurel crown on his head, looked at Hastia with a strange smile.
"Although I didn't say it until now, I still think it's necessary. Hastia, thank you for taking care of my family a few days ago."
"… Yes, this time on my side."
Apollo smiled with satisfaction and then suddenly said, "My children were injured by your children.
"My child was severely injured by your child. I hope you can compensate me."
Hastia was instantly enraged, but she quickly recovered. What Apollo said was indeed the truth.
In the end, Misaka and the others were not injured, but an adventurer from the other side was seriously injured.
As if to prove Apollo's words, one of the adventurers who was injured by Misaka raised his right arm that was still in a cast.
"My precious baby, Rouen, was badly injured when he came back that day. My heart almost broke!"
Apollo put his hand on his chest for a while, and then he stretched his arms and sighed.
Hastia's face turned pale.
Yuriko glared at Apollo fiercely. She walked behind Hastia and patted her shoulder.
"Great Goddess …"
After calling her name, Yuriko fell silent.
However, Hastia seemed to be greatly encouraged.
[Yes, I have reliable children now.]
[I'm not alone anymore.]
Hastia tried to calm down. She put her hands on her hips and puffed out her chest.
"Tell me, Apollo, what are you going to do?!"
[It's just a war game. I, Hastia, will accept it!]
Apollo was stunned.
He didn't expect that Hestea would say something like that, which made all the excuses and arrangements he had prepared in advance useless.
But —
Apollo pursed his lips and smiled. This was good.
"Since you've hurt one of my members, I can't just sit there and do nothing. This concerns the reputation of the clan … Hastea, I want to propose a game of war to you!"
[War Game].
After the rules were set between the opponents of the battle (clan tribe), a battle between the clans of the same clan was carried out. Using their spawns as pawns, it was like a board game where the opposing gods waged an all-out war in order to carry out their divine will.
It was a [Proxy War] of the gods.
The god who won would take away all the possessions of the defeated god and be given the right to order the death of the defeated god.
Usually, the winner would choose to take away all the assets of the loser, including the adventurer's adventurer.
"Wow! Apollo made his move! "
"Isn't this bullying?!"
"This is going to be fun!"
After Apollo said this, the audience was in an uproar.
Hestia looked at Apollo with a serious expression, which was rare for her to be so cold.
"Are you sure?"
"Yes."
Hastia took a deep breath and smiled.
"Okay! I'll accept it! I hope this game can be fun. "
"It's going to be a game."
Flandora, who had been eating with her head buried in the food, heard the word "game". The crystal wings on her back moved slightly, and a bloody light flashed in her eyes.
"Crash!" The gorgeous porcelain plate in front of her suddenly shattered into pieces.
