Chapter 211: What did I do?
Chapter 211: What did I do?
"I..."
Somehow, Isao only realized it, but he could feel a dangerous stare staring at his back like a viper ready to put her fangs into his being. He couldn't escape, and he knew that he was already trapped, yet why the heck that this slutty goddess really married someone?
Isao rubbed his temple inside his mind, but from the outside, he was as calm as a cucumber since he didn't want to aggravate the current situation, in which everyone thought that he had slept with Freya.
Well, he did, but he never thought to visit Freya again.
Once was enough.
Well, twice was good, he thought.
Or rather, he would do her until he was bored!
Still, as a good guy, he knew that he shouldn't do such a scumbag thing, so he had given up on Freya, especially when he could hold Demeter, so it was all fine, yet this was a different matter!
'Freya is going to marry Bell...'
Even though Isao knew that in the original, Bell was almost getting "Od" (Freya's husband in Myth) as his alias, it made him conflicted when he knew that Bell would really become Freya's husband, but more importantly—
'If they really married...'
Isao took a deep breath and suddenly stood up, causing Aiz, who was lying on his lap, to suddenly overturn and fall to the ground.
"..." Everyone.
"...I am sorry."
"Um." Aiz looked at Isao speechlessly, then asked, "What's wrong?"
"I need to go out for a while." Still, before Isao left, he looked at Eina and said, "Eina, help me to make a report to the guild."
"What do you want to report?" Eina asked with concern and curiosity.
"I, Daphne, and Cassandra have become Level 3."
"Oh..." Eina nodded. "Okay."
"Thanks."
Saying those words, Isao left directly as he wished to talk with Bell.
Yet Finn was dumbfounded. "Eh? Did he reach Level 3?" How long had it been?
Isao hadn't been in the Orario for a year, yet he had become a Level 3!
Only the focus of Loki wasn't on Isao's level, but—
"As expected, he has slept with Freya. Kuuh! I am so jealous!"
Loki bit her thumb in jealousy, feeling aggravated, thinking that Isao had slept with so many beautiful goddesses, such as Freya and Demeter.
Still, if Isao made a move on her, could she stop him?
At that moment, Loki thought that the "Goddess Slayer" might be a suitable alias for Isao.
"..." Everyone.
Was it really time to think about that?
Finn let out a helpless sigh, yet he also felt relief since the Orario was still peaceful.
---
Folkvangr.
It was located around the center of the business area, on the opposite side of Orario from the Loki Familia home. It is a huge mansion that has a solemn structure similar to a temple. It covers a large area surrounded by four large walls and has a garden large enough for all Familia members to assemble in.
The sight of this mansion displayed the Freya Familia's wealth, power, and honor.
Yet, Isao couldn't care about all of that since he believed that he could be richer, and more importantly, he had to meet Bell Cranel!
Nevertheless, when Isao appeared, the guards never expected that the famous "Centipede" or "Flower of Evil" would come to visit their place. Yet, this was normal as he wore his dorky glasses and put down his bangs, making him appear like a handsome, introverted type of guy.
"Excuse me, can I meet Cranel-san?"
"Cranel?"
The moment Bell's name was heard, the guards of the Freya Familia became ugly and appeared jealous and angry.
"Who are you? Are you here to assassinate him, too?"
"....."
Isao was speechless and asked the guards curiously. "...did he receive an assassination?"
"He was."
"Isn't it natural, especially with the blasphemy he did?!"
The two guards snorted and even felt an intense hatred toward the boy, yet they were also helpless and powerless since, as followers of Freya, it was impossible for them to do anything about Freya's decision, who wished to marry that boy.
"Why?! Why is it that boy...?!"
"What's so special about him? Is it his virgin aura?!"
"....." Isao.
"Do you know that even though we can't touch him, many have sent death threats and assassins!"
"Do you want to do it, too? Please! Please kill him!"
"...no, but I want to talk with him to persuade him to stop marrying your goddess."
Facing the desperate guards, Isao couldn't make his promise, but he had to do his best.
"Thank you very much!" 2x
It was his first time being thanked for such a strange thing, but as Isao had expressed his desire to talk with Bell, the guards didn't stop him and even anticipatedly called Bell so Bell could stop his decision to marry Freya!
Yet, as Isao saw their anger, he also understood why they were angry. After all, Freya was their goddess, and for a mortal like Bell to become her husband... it was definitely outrageous!
Then, what about him, who had slept with Freya and thought of playing with her body?
'Let's keep it a secret.'
Isao kept everything that happened in Babel a secret and would never leak it to anyone, but then, if someone found out, he would say that it was Freya who made a move on him!
Yup, that's what he planned to do!
Still, once again, Isao didn't plan to make a move on Freya, but if Freya became a married woman, then...
Soon, Bell appeared, and as expected, he was quite beaten up, yet Isao could see his eyes filled with determination.
Liaris Freese.
A skill that allowed Bell to grow stronger as long as he was in love.
Isao also got this skill, and naturally, as he was in love with many people, his speed at getting stronger was much faster.
Joke aside, when the two met, they had a complicated expression.
Like Isao, who couldn't believe that Bell would become part of the Freya Familia and even marry the most beautiful goddess as his wife, Bell also couldn't believe Isao, who had grown so much.
'You said that you were weak...'
Bell was so speechless, thinking about how someone who only wanted to make an end meet to become became the rising star on the Orario.
If there was a brightest star in the Orario, it would be Isao, Bell thought.
Yet, even so, Bell felt that he was better, especially when what had happened to him.
Nevertheless, unlike before, Bell couldn't appear like he was above Isao, and even if Isao wore dorky glasses, he could tell that Isao was strong, especially when Isao took off his glasses.
"It's been a while, Cranel-san."
"I-Iinuma... yes, it's been a while."
Fortunately, Isao broke the silence between them.
While Bell wasn't sure why Isao wished to meet him, he decided to ask, "So what's wrong?"
"...are you okay?"
"I am fine." Bell was stunned, but he nodded. "I have tried to become stronger, and soon, I will become a famous adventurer!"
No, you have already become famous as Freya's husband, Isao thought.
Still, as they had their conversations, many members of the Freya Familia stared at the two curiously and sneakily and, if possible, wished for Isao to strike a killing blow to Bell!
Bell shuddered, and his body was tense, but even so, he didn't lose his focus and looked at Isao.
Watching this reaction, Isao wondered what kind of hellish day this guy had spent on the Freya Familia. However, he also shook his head, thinking that it was all brought by Bell himself.
If Bell disagreed with this marriage, then would he meet all of this trouble?
At the same time, would Isao be targeted by Freya?
While Isao is helpless, he wants to stop Bell's decision to marry Freya. Not because he was afraid that Freya would make a move on him after she became a married woman, but because he was afraid that Bell might be broken due to Freya.
For a virgin boy like Bell, Freya was definitely the last person that he should choose as a wife.
Or rather, Freya shouldn't be made a wife or even a partner for life, considering her personality and her nymphomaniac nature.
"...I have heard that you are going to marry your goddess. Is that true?"
"Ah, did you hear it?" Bell blushed and appeared embarrassed, scaring the back of his head shyly, but he nodded happily. "Yes, Freya-sama wished to marry me. Soon, we will be a husband and a wife."
"....."
While everyone wished to kill Bell, who appeared so smug, they decided to restrain themselves, waiting for Isao to say something as few realized the identity of the young man, who wore such dorky glasses.
"Are you sure?" Isao asked.
"...what do you mean?" Bell frowned and asked, "Do you like Freya-sama too, Iinuma? Well, that's normal since Freya-sama is beautiful, but she is going to become mine."
'This guy has fallen...'
Isao looked at Bell's obsessed eyes and felt helpless. He wanted to say that Freya was a slut that would open her legs to many guys, but he was sure that he would receive an assassination from all the members of the Freya Familia if he dared to do so.
"Then, good luck. I wish you happiness."
In the end, Isao gave up since he thought that this might be happiness, too.
After all, certain unique people could feel happy when their partner was held by others.
If Bell had such a hobby, Isao wouldn't have stopped Bell.
"Oh, oh? Thanks!" Bell was surprised by Isao's words since it was his first time hearing congratulations, and naturally, he was happy and showed his pure, boy-like smile.
"Then, I will go back."
Isao felt sick when he saw what he had done to this pure boy.
"Um! Please come to my wedding!" Regardless, Bell was happy with Isao's congratulations.
"..." Isao
Only Isao couldn't feel happy since his time to grow stronger became even more limited, especially when he had an intense stare at his back; he turned and saw Freya, who was looking at him from a distance, inside her mansion.
'Come to see me later, okay~?'
Freya only moved her beautiful, pink lips, but it caused Isao to shudder, and he escaped.
'No, I don't want to become a bad guy anymore!'
As Isao thought so, he had to say all the deities were so slutty!
