Chapter 834 Returning to Orario: A Few Things
"Lord Hermes, shall we stay in this town for the night?"
"Yes, we've been sleeping outdoors these past few days, and it's been quite tiring."
So, I'd like to stay in this town for one night so everyone can relax.
After a pause, Hermes leaned over and hooked his arm around the Saiyan boy's shoulder.
"Broly, I understand your desire to get back to Orario and your other wives as soon as possible, but after being away for so long, is it really okay to leave without bringing anything back?"
"Well----"
"Do you think I just randomly picked a town to stop in? No, there are many large silver mines around this town, making it a very developed silver product manufacturing industry. In particular, some silver jewelry is more than enough to please women, with a success rate of nearly 80%. Cough cough, of course, you may not need to seduce many women, but aren't you planning to buy some as souvenirs?"
Broly was somewhat tempted.
"Do you need me to recommend a few shops that make good silver jewelry?"
"Then I'll have to trouble you, Lord Hermes."
"It's no trouble at all."
Hermes leaned close to the Saiyan boy's ear, told him about some of the silver jewelry shops he frequented, and then hurriedly left.
"I have an old friend to see in this city, so I won't go with you. You go with Hestia and the others."
"it is good."
Hermes left the inn and went to an old tavern, where he bought two bottles of fine wine and a serving of roast beef. He then went up to the clock tower in the town center.
"Long time no see, Hermes. You look travel-worn. What have you been up to lately?"
Just as I reached a spot where I could see the Silver Jewelry Street in the distance, a deep, yet bold voice came from behind me.
"The matter is settled. I guided some remarkable child to a small rescue of the world from imminent peril. Shall we have a drink together, Zeus?"
Hermes swirled the wine in his hand, then turned around and saw that the bearded old man standing behind him was also carrying wine and snacks.
"Then let's do it together. But when you said you guided a certain amazing child to save the world, were you referring to my precious grandson?"
"Your grandson? No, not Bell's kid."
"Oh, so who exactly is it that you call 'powerful'?"
"That child's name is Broly, and his nickname is now the Demon King. I won't go into details about his strength; in short, he's stronger than a human."
Hermes opened the wine, took a bite of beef and a sip of wine, before continuing his speech.
"And his ability to encounter beautiful women and goddesses is in no way inferior to yours, old man. If I didn't know he was Hestia's child, I would have thought he was the one who received your personal instruction."
"A guy who dares to mess with even a goddess, that's really intriguing. I'd like to meet him!"
Compared to strength, Zeus was more interested in the ability to attract women. Any child from the lower realm who dared to build a harem and was brave enough to face the potentially tragic battles that might follow was, in his eyes, a respectable warrior and a hero among men.
"Seeing them is easy enough, they're right there!"
As Hermes spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to the bustling silver jewelry street in the distance.
Although the streets were bustling and the distance was far, it was impossible to tell where he was pointing.
But for gods, this kind of problem can be solved simply by opening their divine eyes.
Even among a large crowd, one can still distinguish some unique souls from a pile of sand.
Broly's soul, like a torch in the night, was immediately spotted by Zeus.
Are you talking about that child?
"That's right."
Broly was helping Ais choose silver jewelry when he suddenly felt like he was being watched. He frowned, turned his head, and looked in the direction where he felt the gaze. He saw Hermes holding a bottle of red wine on the clock tower in the distance.
The other person even raised their hand and waved it twice in his direction.
"Broly, what are you looking at?"
Ais came over with two silver necklaces and noticed that he seemed to be looking at something, so she asked him about it.
"No, it was just Lord Hermes who greeted me."
"Where is Lord Hermes?"
"On that clock tower in the distance, it looks like they're drinking and eating with friends."
Ais looked in the direction the boy was pointing and could see the clock tower, but she couldn't make out what the people on the clock tower were doing.
"You have a very far-sighted view."
"You can also concentrate your energy in front of your eyes to create a telescope-like effect."
Just as Ais was about to ask Broly for advice on how to manipulate ki, Artemis ran over and asked the Saiyan boy, "Broly, what do you think of the hair accessory I chose?"
Distracted by this, Ais remembered that she had come to ask the boy for his opinion on wearing accessories.
"Wow, wait, the goddess that kid encountered was actually Artemis?"
While Broly returned to the normal gift-selection process, Zeus gasped upon seeing Artemis.
Back then, every single male god who dared to provoke Artemis, the celestial disciplinary committee member, had experienced her archery skills.
Zeus was almost castrated by an arrow, and even now, this shadow still exists. He is the second goddess he doesn't want to provoke, besides Hera.
"Not only Artemis, but other goddesses, such as Hestia, Hephaestus, and even Astrea and Freya, also had ambiguous relationships with each other."
As the names of the goddesses were announced one by one, Zeus took several deep breaths and suddenly felt old.
"This young man is truly remarkable! If I were still managing a clan, I would definitely recruit such a capable child!"
"Come on, even if you're still managing your clan, you can't poach people. After all, one main god is a busty loli with a harem, and the other is a decrepit old man. Anyone would choose the former."
"Uh, you're right, hahaha————"
Hermes didn't mince words in his criticism, while Zeus laughed heartily. After their banter, the god with a thick white beard finally inquired about his grandson.
"Forget about other people's outstanding children, let's talk about my outstanding grandson. How's Bell doing in Orario?"
"Your grandson Bell seems to be doing quite well in Orario—"
[If she were to cross-dress, she might even be a contender for the title of Orario's next Saintess.]
Hermes couldn't help but think this when he thought about the current enthusiasm of Orario's adventurers for Bell Crane.
"Before I arrived, he was almost at Lv.3 and was known as the team's pride."
"Hahaha, as expected of the grandson I raised myself. I wonder which clan that child has joined now?"
"The Hestia Familia".
"?"
"Your grandson is very lucky. He found a powerful and good mentor right after arriving in Orario."
"Wait, the 'brother' you're talking about, you don't mean the kind that requires pulling strings, do you?"
"No, Broly is straight. Your grandson is the kind who genuinely considers Broly his older brother. By following Broly, he's become quite popular in Orario, especially after the advent of resurrection magic. Bell, who also possesses resurrection magic, has become an extremely respected figure in Orario. He's even more respected by the general public than Broly, the Demon King."
Hermes went on and on, while Zeus listened with mixed feelings. His grandson, whom he had raised, had not become a hero, but instead had become a demon king's lackey.
The only piece of good news is that, influenced by his own demon king brother, he has successfully built a harem in Orario.
"Oh well, if I'm not going to be a hero, at least I had a harem, so at least I'm a real man!"
[If I told you that someone wanted to replace him as the new Saintess of Orario by dressing as a woman, wouldn't you explode, you old geezer?]
"Hermes————"
"Um?"
"Could you please keep an eye on Bell for me for a bit?"
"Okay, but are you planning to leave?"
"After the Familia disbanded, Hera kept looking for me, and I don't want to be found."
Watching his old friend's departing figure, Hermes thought to himself, "This harem is really something else. It would be better to just have a child in the mortal realm!"
Broly, unaware of what was happening with Hermes, returned to the inn after buying a bunch of silver jewelry to take back as souvenirs, to watch Hestia and the others' silver jewelry show.
Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Hestia and the others wore more and more silver ornaments, but wore less and less clothing.
In the end, he was only covered by silver ornaments, which made him quite angry. He managed to extinguish the flames by pouring saliva from the two gods on him.
The next day, Broly and his companions continued their journey towards Orario, without lingering or resting in any other city.
Along the way, they passed through a city in the Kingdom of Lachia and found some soldiers from the Kingdom of Lachia promoting a policy about protecting intelligent monsters and heretics.
"Lord Ares is a god of his word. I thought I might have to go to the Kingdom of Lachia because of the other party's breach of faith."
Broly remarked with a touch of wistfulness.
"Ares won't renege on the ransom, and I heard that soon the army of the Kingdom of Lachia will be going to conquer the surrounding small countries again, and will also take the law protecting heretics with them."
"Lord Hermes, I would like to trouble you to deliver a letter to Lord Ares."
"What are you going to write to Ares?"
"If his army encounters a formidable enemy while conquering other countries, he can come to Orario and hire me as a mercenary."
"Broly, are you trying to help the Kingdom of Lachia conquer the world so that the Heretic Protection Law can be successfully implemented?"
Hermes asked out of curiosity.
"That's one reason. Of course, if the country to be attacked is also willing to take the initiative to formulate a law to protect heretics, I can also promise not to interfere in their war with the Kingdom of Lachia."
"Well, after delivering the letter to Lord Ares, I'd like to trouble Lord Hermes to convey my message to the kings of the other kingdoms, and also to include a commemorative stone of my performance in the last war game."
"In this way, countries that cannot defeat the Kingdom of Lachia will be defeated by the Kingdom of Lachia and will have to implement laws protecting heretics. Countries that can contend with the Kingdom of Lachia will also have to follow in the footsteps of the Kingdom of Lachia and formulate laws protecting heretics in their own countries in order to prevent the Kingdom of Lachia from hiring a master like you who can affect the balance of the war, because of the information you passed on."
Broly's words flashed through Hermes' mind, and the god who mainly dealt with the intelligence industry quickly realized the brilliance of this operation.
Simply by sending some messages, the countries surrounding the Kingdom of Lachia could also actively implement laws protecting heretics.
Of course, if there are villains who actively refuse to promote, reject heretics, and prevent Broly from integrating the heretics into the surface plan, wouldn't they just jump out on their own?
Broly accepted the commission from the Kingdom of Lachia to eliminate some countries that had made such statements, which could be seen as clearing obstacles for his monster waifus like Winnie to leave Orario in the future.
Incidentally, by collecting a hefty commission fee and absorbing the life energy of the slain, he can also gain experience points.
What is a win-win-win situation? This is a win-win-win situation: Broly won three times by himself.
. . .
Broly casually dropped a plan in the Kingdom of Lachia, and then encountered nothing else on his way back to Orario.
More than a month after the Divine Moon Festival, Broly and the others finally returned to Orario, and even though they brought back some souvenirs, the little girl was still a bit sullen.
Of course, Lilyluka was angrier at Hestia than at Broly. They were comrades who fought side by side in the same bed, yet when she ran away with the boy, Hestia didn't take her with her and delayed the boy's return.
Lilyluka's mood improved after learning that Hestia had also failed to seduce the Saiyan boy's purity during this time.
Absence makes the heart grow fonder. After more than a month apart, when they met again, Tiona and the others showed considerable enthusiasm for Broly.
One night, a group of people in one room managed to make the whole room wet. They didn't engage in any dual cultivation; they were simply venting their joy after their reunion and some physical desires. Only Broly's physical strength was strong enough; otherwise, he would have been the one feeling soreness this time.
The next day, Broly woke up in another room, on a clean bed, surrounded by a group of wives.
Last night, after appeasing each of his wives' unexpected encounters, Broly also helped each of his wives, who were so comfortable they were exhausted, to clean themselves up before moving into this room to sleep.
Now it seems everyone slept comfortably. Broly carefully got up and left the room without waking anyone.
Just as he was preparing breakfast in the kitchen, the magic stone doorbell of the Hearthstone Mansion rang. When he went out to open the door, a cool and aloof maid girl was standing at the door.
"Miss Helen, it's been a long time, good morning."
"Long time no see, Broly. Lady Freya wishes to see you."
"Then I'll prepare breakfast at home first, and then I'll go see her later."
Broly went to the Lady of Abundance's tavern last night, but didn't see Seele. I heard she took leave and didn't go.
