Ultimate Being from the Tokonosu City 161 Yes, I am that scumbag who plays with a woman's heart

4 days ago

Isao knew that someone was following them, and this person would interrupt his kiss with Eina like a romance comedy harem plot usually did. 

But Isao was resolute. He wouldn't allow this intruder to spoil their moment. With a swift, decisive move, he claimed Eina's lips. 

As expected, this person read the mood and didn't stop them, but when Isao gave a deep kiss to Eina, this person was unable to hold on and kept coughing, trying to remind them. 

Yet Isao never bowed down and never let go of Eina's lips until she couldn't breathe any longer. 

As their lips parted, a string of salivae connected their lips, and Eina appeared to be in a daze, completely drunk due to the pleasure. Resting her forehead against his firm chest, she wanted to do it again, but—

Cough! Cough! Cough!

While Eina was annoyed, she turned her head before she was dumbfounded. "Ri-Riveria-sama?!" 

"....." Riveria. 

Isao, naturally, stood in front of Eina to protect her, blocking her from Riveria, but then again, he had to say that this elf was beautiful. 

Her skin was fair, her long hair was as beautiful as a jade, and, more importantly, her mature charm was impossible for a young woman to mimic. 

Frankly, this woman should be more beautiful than some goddesses, he thought. 

Only, as he observed her, Riveria also observed him, this naughty young man, with a centipede and red spider lily on his neck, which made her helpless, especially when he had laid her hand on her acquaintance. 

"You are from the Loki Familia, right?" 

"Nice to meet you, Iinuma Isao-kun. My name is Riveria Ljos Alf. I am the vice-captain of the Loki Familia." 

"Nice to meet you too... Ljos-san." 

"Just call me Riveria since you have dated my niece." 

"Ni-Niece?" Isao glanced at Eina with doubt. 

"Um..." Eina nodded awkwardly and said, "My mother was Riveria-sama's servant previously." 

"Even so, our relationship is like a sister, so I treat her like my niece," Riveria said calmly while her eyes sharply stared at Isao. While she nodded in satisfaction when Isao stood before Eina when she appeared, she didn't like how he took Eina's lips when they hadn't married each other. "Eina, how about you go back first? Let me talk with your boyfriend." 

Eina blushed, but she didn't follow Riveria's words, so she looked at Isao. 

"Go back first. I will visit your place later." 

His voice was quiet, hoping that Riveria wouldn't hear him, but it was impossible for Riveria not to hear what he said, which made her frown further, thinking that their relationship was far deeper than she had imagined. 

However, Eina nodded obediently with a blush. "I'll wait for you." 

Patting her back softly, Isao saw Eina leave, then looked at Riveria, who kept watching him. 

Riveria's expression was strict, and her brows furrowed, yet her face was as beautiful as ever. 

"Is there something on my face?" Isao asked innocently, wondering whether he had done something wrong. 

"...." 

Riveria fell silent, staring at this non-innocent young man who acted like he did nothing wrong with a twitch on her lips. Like her, his appearance was even better than some gods, and with his unflinching, fearless, yet reliable attitude, she knew that he was popular. Moreover, she could see many women were in love with him, but then again, this also made her worried about Eina, as she was afraid that Eina would be hurt. 

"You plan to marry her, right?" Riveria asked. 

"Marry?" Isao was speechless. "You mean Eina?" 

"Yes." Riveria frowned and became even deeper. "Or are you playing with her?" 

"..." 

Isao knew that an elf took the matter of their purity seriously. Unlike Amazoness, that was so loose that they could become a whore without much thought, the elf was so tight that you would think of them as uppity and snobbish, but when they opened their hearts, they would be so gentle and gave everything. 

Frankly, if he married someone in this world, there was no doubt that Eina was more suitable than anyone. 

"What's wrong? Are you playing with her feelings?" Riveria asked with a dagger-like gaze. 

Still, Isao didn't fear Riveria and nodded. "You are right. I play with her feelings." 

BOOOOOOM!

At that moment, a powerful wave of magic spread everywhere. 

Unlike before, when Isao made a move on Bete, who was unprepared, he could see that Riveria would use her everything to attack him. 

Riveria Ljos Alf, also known as Nine Hell. 

As the strongest magician on the Orario and one who gained a "Nine Hell" as her nickname, she wasn't someone who was weak. Moreover, she was also one of the Level 6 adventurers in the Orario. 

The anger of such a being definitely wasn't something that could be handled, Isao, who was a Level 2 adventurer. 

Yet, Isao stood calmly, facing Riveria, who showed her anger toward him. 

"Boy, you should know what it means to play around with my niece." When Riveria thought about how this beast ravaged the lips of her niece and played with her niece's body, she couldn't control her emotions and was about to turn this place into hell.

Even though she was about to reach 100 years old, she didn't have a husband or children, so she treasured many of her family, including Eina Tulle. 

"Yes, I know, so you should tell her to leave me," Isao said calmly. 

"...." 

Riveria stopped her anger and looked at Isao with confusion. "... what do you mean?" 

"She is a good woman. Instead of me, she should be with someone better." Showing a pained smile, Isao said, "Moreover, I am an adventurer. I might die the next day, leaving her so suddenly, and I also have many troubles. Instead of letting her be troubled with many things due to me, you should tell her to leave me and tell her that I am a scumbag who plays with her feelings." 

The whims of the deities were unpredictable, the arrogant adventurers were everywhere, and the monsters he met would become even stronger. Many things that he didn't know were probably brewing under this city, bringing danger to him and his surroundings. 

Even with his power, Isao knew that there was still a limit to what he could do. 

Unlike Daphne and Cassandra, who were adventurers, Eina was a guild staff member. She could live steadily without worrying about danger or anything else, as she had the guild's backing, but if she got involved with him, he was afraid that her peaceful life would be destroyed. 

Frankly, Isao was amazed that he could encounter so much trouble from the Apollo Familia, then Bete. Moreover, this definitely wasn't going to be over, and he knew that he was going to face many other things in this world. 

While he wouldn't give up, especially when he longed for power, and after he saw Riveria's power as a Level 6 adventurer, it was impossible for him to leave this world. 

Yet, he also knew the danger of this world. 

Whether it was deities or adventurers, then monsters. 

In this world, his opponents were crazier as this was the survival of the fittest world. 

The strong got everything, and the weak could only devour. 

Still, it wasn't like he didn't have the confidence to win all of them, or rather, he was going to become stronger than anyone, but he needed time. 

'Should I go to another world again?' 

There were still many worlds that he hadn't tried to enter, and he thought of entering that world, trying to get stronger, even if it was just a little. 

Nevertheless, Isao said those words to Riveria because he knew he was weak. 

If he said that he would be loyal to Eina but was then discovered by Riveria that he wasn't, what would happen to him?

Isao was sure that he would be frozen to death. He had gotten Riveria's DNA when they met last time, and he knew how powerful she was, so he knew that, at least for now, he couldn't make her into his enemy. 

It wasn't that he didn't have the confidence to be loyal to Eina, and frankly, while he said that he wanted to have a harem, he just didn't want others to fall for him, wishing them to feel disillusioned toward him, especially when his body was often ravaged by Hephaestus, and there were also the waitresses of the Hostess of Fertility, who wanted to get his body. 

While it was he who was being attacked by those obscene women, he was sure that Riveria would misunderstand him, so he might as well say that he was a scumbag who played with a woman's heart and body. 

"I am sorry for troubling you, but thank you." 

Leaving those words, Isao left Riveria, ignoring her expression as he returned to Hostess of Fertility.

Yet Riveria, rooted in her spot, stared at his unbending and firm back, riddled with invisible scars, wounds, and burns, unable to say a single word toward this young man.

Ultimate Being from the Tokonosu City 162 Let's have another fair duel!

4 days ago

"Isao-kun!" 

When Isao returned, Hestia quickly jumped on him and clung to him, feeling relief that he wasn't at Eina's place. 

"..." 

Isao, who caught Hestia on his arm, stared at this goddess of his, who buried her face in his chest, feeling helpless since it felt like he had another daughter in this world. 

"Mama, Syr, Ryu, Chloe, Anya, and Runoa, thank you for the treats. They are all delicious. I will treat you all next time." 

"Oh, I can't wait for that!" 

"Yeah, bring us to your new place later, nyaa~!" 

"....." 

All of them directly fell into silence and stared at Chloe, who said those words, causing this naughty cat to feel nervous. 

"I will when we're ready." Isao nodded. "Let's go, Cassandra, Daphne." 

"Um!" 2x

"Hephaestus, do you want to stay with us tonight?" Isao asked. 

"Er..." Hephaestus wished to, but when she saw Hestia's eyes, she sighed helplessly and said, "I will visit you again the next day." 

"Okay." Isao nodded. "I will be waiting." Still, when he said those words, his shoulder was bitten by Hestia. "It hurts! Why did you bite me so suddenly?" 

"Hmph~!" Hestia pouted, but she still clung to him like a little kid. 

Isao rolled his eyes and lightly patted Hestia's soft buttocks. "Don't be so naughty." 

"It hurts!" The slap on her buttocks wasn't that hurt, but Hestia sulked, feeling hurt by the lack of respect that this cheeky young man had for her. "How could you treat your goddess this way?!" 

Still, compared to the fact that she couldn't have him alone, frankly, it was nothing. 

"Hey, are you going to ignore us?" Loki suddenly said. 

"There is no way that we're going to ignore you, right, Loki-sama?" Isao said with a gentle smile. "But my goddess seems tired, so I have thought to bring her back to rest." 

After saying so, Hestia lay directly on Isao's shoulder, pretending to sleep. Many looked at her in jealousy, but as his goddess, she had this privilege. 

Still, frankly, while Isao didn't fear the Loki Familia, he knew that fighting them was troublesome. His advantage lay in his unpredictability, and it was impossible to kill him. Moreover, he had confirmed that his fragrance manipulation could even affect everyone in this place. 

Yes, fragrance manipulation. 

It was the ability that he gained from Tamayo, one of his wives. 

While Tamayo could only use it to create a flower-like illusion that surrounded someone, Isao had developed it further, making it into a quite strong ability, which allowed him to manipulate the senses of someone through their sense of smell. 

Naturally, this wasn't the only ability he had, especially when the demons from the "Kimetsu no Yaiba" gave him various unique abilities. 

Still, there was no merit in fighting the Loki Familia, and it only brought a disadvantage. 

As for Bete? 

That guy's status in his family wasn't good, to begin with, and Isao knew that even if he didn't do anything, Bete would be troubled by others. Moreover, as he had said before, it would be unfair to the others if his impression of the Loki Familia became horrible just because of Bete. 

Bete wasn't the only member of the Loki Familia, and there were many of them, and unlike Bete, they knew a manner. 

Still, it would be amazing if Loki could be in a good mood, especially when her Familia had just gained a 100 million debt. Nevertheless, while they had agreed that they had to pay 100 million Valis, in reality, it would be different since there was no doubt they would only repair the door and those that were broken. 

As for the rest of the debt, it would be thrown to Bete, as this stupid dog was the cause of everything. 

Yet, watching Isao, who could leave with ease while ignoring them, made Loki feel a bit irked for some reason. 

So what if they were poisonous shrimps?

She didn't care at all! 

At that moment, Loki wanted to ease her heart, which was troubled by many things, by bullying the weak! 

Loki smiled, then asked, "By the way, I have said sorry to Hestia, and you should forgive Bete, right? If so, then tell me how you defeated Bete?" 

"Oh, no. I didn't forgive him," Isao said calmly. "But like him, if you kept provoking me, then it would be different." 

"..." 

While they didn't want to become Isao's enemy if Isao provoked them like this, how could they accept it?

Loki narrowed her eyes at Isao and asked lazily, "Are you sure that you want to become our enemy?" 

"I don't want to, but you force me." Isao then looked at everyone and said, "So how about we settle everything with a duel?" 

"Duel?" 

While the Loki Familia was startled by Isao's sudden proposal, Mia, Syr, Hestia, and the others, who were familiar to him, looked at him strangely. 

"If I lose this duel, then I will apologize to all of you, but if I win, I want you all to apologize to me." 

Isao looked at all of them with a determined expression and said, "Let's settle this in a fair and just manner. One-on-one duels." 

"There is no fairness in this world, but since you dare to say so, how about you face our princess?" Loki looked at Isao with a sweet smile and said, "She is a Level 5 adventurer, and unlike our dog, she is much stronger. If you win against her, then I will forgive you." 

"Sure." 

Isao looked at the blonde-haired adventurers, whose appearance was much better than some goddesses. He then looked at Loki and asked, "But are you sure that you are okay? Aren't you a little dizzy from the alcohol?" 

"Well, yeah, I drink too much." Loki nodded. 

"Then, take a rest for a while there. I will prepare myself outside." 

"Good." Loki felt happy by Isao's care somehow. 

"When you are ready, let's do it right away under everyone's eyes." 

Isao then walked out, then being followed by the others. 

Somehow, Syr and Ryuu also followed up, ready to ask them what this bad guy planned to do. 

Still, somehow, Riveria also followed, thinking that she should try to educate Isao not to be too arrogant and to watch himself out, especially when he wanted to fight the Loki Familia. If it had been before, she might not have cared about him, but this time, it was different, especially when she learned about his relationship with Eina.

Nevertheless, watching Isao's action, all of Loki Familia were surprised, as they didn't expect him to be brave enough to fight Aiz. Unlike Bete, Aiz should be stronger, especially in terms of sword and magic. 

"Loki..." Aiz, who had to fight Isao, frowned, but then again, she also anticipated this battle as she wanted to know the reason why Isao was so strong. 

"It's fine. It's fine." Loki waved her hand, trying to recover from her drunkenness. "Just breaking one or two of his bones should be fine. Moreover, I want to know the secret of his ability, so try to search for that, Aiz. 

"....."

While Aiz wouldn't break Isao's bones, she wanted to know Isao's secret, so she didn't try to stop this duel.

Still, others had various reactions when Isao dared to fight Aiz. 

"Is he really going to fight Aiz-san?" 

"How dare he!! Who did he think he was?! How dare he challenge Aiz-san in a duel?!" 

"Dammit! Why has it become like this?! I want him to become my husband?!" 

"....." 

Somehow, some of them shut their mouths when they heard the last words from Tiona, which caused a slap on the back of the head from Tiona, her sister. 

"I thought you would stop it," Gareth said to Finn, who was silent. 

"It's his provocation anyway. Why should I stop it? Moreover, his ability is dangerous, and I want to know about it." 

Even if the thumb was unable to detect what was happening, while Finn didn't want them to become enemies, it wouldn't be hurt to prepare for the future in case something happened. 

"He is just a Level 2. Don't take him seriously," Gareth said while drinking alcohol with ease. 

"Many might forget it, but he has become a Level 2 adventurer in just two weeks. How long do you think he will reach our level, Gareth?" Finn asked with a gentle smile. 

"....." Gareth. 

"Anyway, Loki, are you fine now?" 

"Wait a moment. I am still dizzy." 

Loki rubbed her temple, but when she tried to recover, Isao made a similar decision. 

"Run." 

"Huh?" 4x

Hestia, Hephaestus, Cassandra, and Daphne were dumbfounded. 

However, as Isao ran, Cassandra and Daphne quickly followed with swift speed. 

"....." 

Watching this, Syr, Ryuu, and Riveria, who watched him running away after saying such a brave provocation, were lost for words. 

"See you later, Syr, Ryu, Riveria-san. Bye~!" 

Isao then quickly ran as fast as he could, hugging Hestia and Hephaestus in his arms while maintaining a speed where Daphne and Cassandra could follow him. 

"Wa-Wait! Are we just going to run away like this, Isao-sama?" 

"M-My stomach is full! I can't run too fast!" 

"Run first, and talk later!" 

"Okay!" 2x

Daphne and Cassandra ran with all of their might! 

Hestia and Hephaestus looked at Isao, sighing helplessly, then laid on his shoulder, trying to rest. 

Only—

"Are you going to stay at our place, Hephaestus?" Hestia asked with narrowed eyes. 

"I-I feel a bit dizzy..." Hephaestus said with a blush while leaning on Isao's neck. 

"...." Hestia. 

"Run faster! Faster!" 

As he laughed, they were all helpless, but they were also affected by his smile, and they laughed as they ran as fast as they could. 

"...he never changes." Ryuu looked at Isao's back helplessly. 

"Hahaha..." Syr laughed happily. "But it's fun, right?" 

Riveria opened her lips, then closed them again before she sighed helplessly. She thought that Isao would be reckless, but it seemed... he was more reliable than she had thought.

On the other hand, inside the pub, everyone discussed how the duel between Isao and Aiz would start. Some were in disdain, yet some thought that they should be careful, especially when his feat to defeat hundreds of Apollo Familias wasn't something that everyone could mimic. 

Yet, at the same time, everyone inside the pub discussed the duel between Isao and Aiz.

Unlike Bete, everyone believed in Aiz, their princess, and there was no way that Aiz would lose, but then again, Isao had defeated Bete, even if it was a sneak attack. 

Still, all of them urged Loki to recover from her drunkenness as they wanted to watch their duel as soon as possible. 

Only when they went out did they not see Isao anywhere. 

"Riveria, where is he? I don't see him anywhere?" Loki looked around and asked, "Is he going to use a sneak attack again?" 

When Aiz heard so, she readied her sword, looking around cautiously, wondering where Isao would come out. 

"...run away." 

"What?" 

"He is running away." 

"..." Everyone. 

Loki looked at Riveria and asked strangely, "You don't stop him?" 

"You want me, freezing the entire place, then gaining more debts for our Familia?" 

"....." Everyone. 

"Then, can you use physical ability?" 

"Do you want me to hold him?" Riveria asked. 

"...." Everyone. 

If it were others, they wouldn't think too much, but Riveria was the high elf and even princess of the elves, someone who protected her chastity very much. Even the closest in the Familia never touched her skin, and those around her thought of her body as sacred and worshipped it. 

With all of that in mind, do you want her to hold Isao? 

"Then, why didn't you tell us anything?!" Loki asked helplessly. 

"I was also at a loss when he said that he was going to run away, and it was too late when I realized everything..." Riveria sighed, then said, "Anyway, don't cause more trouble. We already have so much trouble in our hands. Let's just have a celebration, then go back." 

"....." 

Still, somehow, at this moment, their expression was so weird. After all, Isao showed such courage, yet why the hell was that guy running away?

Only Aiz looked at the distance, the place where Isao probably had left without saying anything. 

"Aiz, what's wrong?" Riveria looked at Aiz with doubt. 

"No..." 

Yet, Aiz sighed inwardly, wondering whether their relationship could only become an enemy. 

'No, I have to apologize, and at the same time...' 

Aiz wished to know the secret of Isao's power. 

Ultimate Being from the Tokonosu City 163 I have to become stronger!

4 days ago

On Eina's bed, Isao thought that he really needed to go to the world that could make him become stronger. 

With his second ability, he knew that he could control those whose DNA had been replicated by him. Logically, whether it was plants, animals, humans, monsters, demi-humans, elves, devils, or even gods, he couldn't escape from his control, but in case the power of those he controlled was much bigger than him, could this ability be successful?

He wasn't sure as he had never tried it. 

While the deities had sealed their powers on the lower world if they were really in danger or realized they were being controlled, would they stay in silence and not use their powers?

More importantly, if he was known to have the ability to control deities, he was afraid that he would be targeted by all the deities in heaven, becoming a target of purge. 

Everyone would think of him as enemies, and they would take him down. 

Even if he had Hestia and Hephaestus, they wouldn't be able to do anything when they had many deities to target them. Moreover, while the two were powerful, they weren't the most powerful. 

At the same time, Loki was a troublesome goddess. As a goddess of trickery, Isao knew that he couldn't underestimate Loki. If he had been on Loki Familia as her children, it would have been fine, but he wasn't, after all.

Instead of letting her see his power, it was better for him to run away since the longer he stayed, the more disadvantaged he was. 

If he was a Level 6 adventurer or even just a Level 5 adventurer, he wouldn't fear the Loki Familia, but he wasn't after all. 

Nevertheless, in the end, the truth of everything was only power. 

As long as you are strong, everything will be okay. 

Even if Loki was smart, so what? 

After all, a trick and conspiracy were meaningless in front of overwhelming power that could crush anything. 

Somehow, even if this was a harem story in which the protagonist met various cute girls along his journey, he felt that this world was much, much harder to face than the world of "High School of the Dead" or "Kimetsu no Yaiba." 

Frankly, he didn't want to become the enemy of the Loki Familia, but if this goddess caused him trouble, then—

Yet, he quickly calmed himself. 

He shouldn't move with his emotions; instead, he should calmly think of his strategy, accumulating his power secretly, and then strike when they are prepared. 

Moreover, like what Yuriko had said before, the best revenge wasn't to kill directly but to use them like slaves, working them until death. 

Yet, once again, he wasn't a bad guy anymore, so he knew that he shouldn't think of something as evil as holding grudges and thinking of revenge. Instead, what he had to do was educate Loki so she wouldn't be a bad goddess anymore. 

Moreover, if he did something to Loki, then those innocent women in Loki Familia would be afflicted, so he knew that he had to be gentle, especially when Eina's aunt was Riveria. 

As he had taken care of Eina, he felt that he also had to take care of Riveria, too. 

'Oh, what a good person I am.' 

While thinking so, he kissed Eina's cheek, causing Eina to wake up. 

"...is it morning already?" 

"Yup." 

"Oh..." Eina put her hand on her mouth, yawned, and then widened her eyes, realizing that the sun was already high. "Ah, I need to go to work!" As a guild staff member, she had to be in her office every morning, so she was startled when she saw the sun was already high. However, when she was about to stand up, she flinched and felt sore and pain in her lower body. 

"You have just lost your first time. Get well rested, and last night, you told me that you had taken a leave, right?" 

"Oh, right. I forgot." 

Remembering that she had taken a break today, she directly laid on her bed and snuggled on his chest, feeling comfort and happiness. 

Unlike before, her beauty bloomed, and she appeared so beautiful. 

After Isao ran away and went to the Apollo Mansion, which had become his due of the War Game, he let Hestia and Hephaestus argue with each other, then let them sleep in the same room before he slipped into Eina's apartment. 

While he might have promised to have a duel with Aiz, he felt that his duel with Eina was more important. 

Yet, as expected, even though Eina was a talented woman, she wasn't an adventurer, and her strength was limited. In front of his overwhelming power, she could only beg for mercy, and in the end, instead of fighting, he became a teacher, and she was his student who was willing to learn. 

The two learned vigorously and rested quite late, which was why they woke up quite late. 

"Do you want me to heal you?" 

"Eh? You can use a heal?" Eina was surprised. 

"Yeah."

After replicating the DNA of Riveria, Cassandra, and Airmid, Isao learned of a healing spell. "If you want a potion, I have it too." 

Frankly, aside from blessings and DNA, one of his biggest gains in the world was the potions, as they could be used for money, especially for his endeavor in new world. 

"Well... let me feel this feeling." 

"Okay." 

As a half-elf, naturally, Eina was also affected by her mother's teaching, and she took care of the matter of heart. While it was true that they hadn't married each other, she had thought of him as her man and someone who she would be with forever; this was why she wanted to treasure every moment with him, like this soreness after she lost her virginity. 

Still, watching how pure she was, Isao somehow felt guilty.

Once again, while he might say that he was a good person, he knew inside that it was just something to make him believe that he was one. 

Yet, watching her long, slender legs, shapely breasts with pink nipples, and alluring lips, it was impossible for him not to react. 

"...you real really strong." Eina felt helpless as she saw his strong erection that made her body wet. 

"It's not you, right? Sensei. Call me, Sensei." Isao appeared strict and said, "By the way, Eina-kun, have you reviewed your homework?" 

"..." 

Eina stared at Isao speechlessly, but then she bit her lower lip and nodded, "I-I do Sensei." 

"Good, how about you show me now?" 

Eina blushed, but she was obedient, opening her beautiful lips and sticking out her long tongue as she lowered her head. 

"Good. You did a good job, Eina-kun." 

As Eina worked hard, Isao didn't forget to praise her by caressing her head gently. 

Yes, he might feel guilty for harming this young woman, but he believed he could take care of her well. 

Nevertheless, while he wanted to stay for a little longer, he knew that he couldn't do that, especially when he had so many troubles, whether it was a debt or other things that might swarm toward him. 

Still, the first thing he did was go to the dungeon and pick up several of Jack Bird's Golden Eggs before selling them to the guild. Frankly, while he had met many troubles, his luck was as great as ever. 

"Here is ten million Valis, Isao-kun." 

"Thanks, Misha." 

If it was before, Isao would be low-key, but this time, it was different, especially when everyone knew him, defeating all the members of the Apollo Familia and even killing its captain. 

While he didn't like to kill, he knew that he had to kill since it was a deterrent, something to protect him and the business that he was about to develop. 

Moreover, in this world, while being loved was nice, being feared was much better. 

"What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?" As Isao put his money, he noticed Misha, Eina's friend, the pink-haired petite girl staring at him with her big eyes. 

"No-No... but I thought that Eina was with you," Misha said innocently. It was rare for Eina to take a leave, so she thought that Eina was with Isao, especially after he had just finished his War Game yesterday. 

Yet, watching him emerge from the dungeon so early in the morning, Misha somehow understood why Isao could win the War Game. His dedication, diligence, and discipline were worth learning. 

"She is probably still sleeping since we have a party till late." 

"Ah, why didn't you invite me?!" 

"Next time." Isao waved his hand and said, "Then, Misha, I will leave first." 

"Okay." While Misha nodded, she felt at a loss, wishing to talk with him more. 

Yet, Isao realized that even though he had killed someone, no one seemed to particularly mind. Instead of looking at him with disgust, they only looked at him in awe. 

'As expected, the value of something is different from every era.' 

In a world where wars happen almost every day, Isao knew that it was normal to see death. Even in the Orario, many adventurers die because of the monsters inside the dungeon every day, or they are killed by a simple fight or just a criminal.

Yet, as a good person, he knew that this had nothing to do with him, as he wouldn't kill people unless that person was damned. 

Leaving the guild, while everyone saw he had brought a lot of money, no one stepped forward. 

Still, naturally, there were many whose eyes were greedily staring at him, but then again, Isao didn't care since, in his eyes, they were nothing but ants that he could crush at any moment. 

Nevertheless, he quickly returned to his mansion and saw many statues of Apollos, which made his face twitch, but then, soon, he saw Hestia, Cassandra, and Daphne.

"Isao-kun!" 

Hestia quickly jumped into him and tried to sniff him, wondering whether he had just gone to the woman's house, except for a slightly sweaty and manly scent, which she loved so much. 

"Have you eaten it all? I bought breakfast on my way out of the dungeon. Let's eat together." 

"Okay." 3x

The three of them nodded, brought plates from the pantry, and then ate the breakfast Isao had bought. 

Still, suddenly, they realized something. 

"Huh? Did you just come back from the dungeon, Isao-sama?" Daphne asked curiously. 

Isao was wondering how Daphne called him "-sama," but he didn't care and nodded. "Yeah, I just tried to get some money." While saying so, he took out bundles of money on the table. 

"....." 3x

They blinked their eyes in a daze. 

"...how much are they?" Cassandra asked with a mutter. 

"It is ten million Valis. I didn't stay too long in the dungeon before, so I can only get that much." 

If Isao stayed for a day, he was sure that he would get more money, especially with the help of his luck, which greatly enhanced the drop items he gained from the monsters. Naturally, this wasn't his only asset, but then again, all of his assets were far from enough to pay his 500 million Valis of debt. 

"..." 3x. 

Yet, even though they had 500 million Valis of debt, Hestia, Daphne, and Cassandra were confident that Isao would clear it. 

"By the way, where is Hephaestus?" Isao asked. 

"She had gone home," Hestia said, and then her eyes became sharp as she looked at Isao, but she didn't say much since she didn't want to annoy him. 

Isao ignored this gaze and asked, "Good, by the way, have Cassandra and Daphne become our Familia?" 

"Yes." Hestia nodded. "I have just turned them into our Familia this morning." When she woke up, she had nothing to do, and there was no Isao, so she just turned the two into her Familia. 

Daphne and Cassandra somehow became curious since they could tell that Isao planned to do something. 

"That's good; then we can start my plan." 

"Plan?" 3x

"Yeah, I plan to become the richest man in the whole world." 

"....." 3x

To become powerful, Isao knew that he needed not only strength but also authority and money. 

Being powerful aside, as this one needed a process, he knew that he needed another source of money except for the dungeon. 

As for authority, he would get them as he became stronger and had money. 

So, the first thing he had to do was to get money, but then, how? 

Except from the dungeon, what should he do? 

Food? This was already taken care of by the Demeter Familia, who monopolized the food market. 

Fish? This was also already monopolized by the Njord Familia. 

Magic stone? The guild had a monopoly on it. 

Then, how about medicine? After all, he had the talents of Tamayo, Kanae, and Shinobu, right? 

Yet, in this world, there were many medicine gods, and they definitely weren't a pushover. 

Weapons? Well, it was monopolized by Hephaestus and other blacksmith Familia. 

Moreover, while Isao knew that he had to do a business to make money, he wanted to create a business where it would give him authority, like how a food business could affect the lives of many. 

Yet, with all the core of business having been taken by other Familias, what could he do? 

Nevertheless, Isao didn't give up, especially because he didn't want to feel hopeless about his debt or being played by others anymore. 

"So, I plan to make a business?" Isao said solemnly. 

"Business? What kind of business?" Daphne asked curiously. 

Cassandra also looked at Isao with a similar gaze. 

After all, the two never thought that Isao would try to make a business. 

On the other hand, Hestia didn't care since as long as Isao wished to do something, she would support him 100%! 

"Newspaper." 

Isao looked at everyone and said with vigor like a pyramid scheme leader who wished to brainwash his followers, "This will be our new venture!" 

Only—

"..." 

"...what is a newspaper?" 3x

Ultimate Being from the Tokonosu City 164 A new force in the Orario

3 days ago

It had been a week after the War Game between the Hestia Familia and the Apollo Familia. 

While some people still discussed Isao, considering how handsome and ruthless he was, the heat and the hype had decreased, especially when Hestia Familia had become low-key and hardly appeared in the guild or the dungeon.

They seemed to have disappeared from the eyes of the public. 

Naturally, this made many curious, especially when Isao was hardly low-key. 

Daphne and Cassandra were even more so. They might not be the most beautiful, but they were beautiful. 

Still, even if they couldn't see Hestia Familia in the guild or the dungeon, many often saw them in the business district. 

As for what they did, no one knew. 

Yet life didn't revolve around Isao. 

Everyone had their own lives and troubles. 

Living as adventurers meant that they lived by betting on themselves. 

Yet, at that moment, one product suddenly entered their lives, and this caused all of them to stay quiet in the morning to read this new product that entered Orario and soon spread to the entire world. 

"By the way, have you seen them after that?" Loki asked the three leaders of her Familia curiously. 

On the highest tower, Loki, Finn, Gareth, and Riveria gathered together, talking about their next expedition. Even though their last expedition had ended in failure, it was impossible for them to give up. They had a lot of planning, and this time, they had to succeed, but even though they hadn't started their second expedition, they met a lot of troubles, whether it was money, Freya Familia, or Hephaestus Familia. 

Like most of the expedition Familia, their income mainly came from the dungeon. 

Naturally, as their income came from the dungeon, it was a high-risk job, but the return was also high as they could get hundreds of millions with ease when they finished their expedition, but then again, their expenditure was also high as they needed to fix their weapons, armors, foods, and various needs of their Familia. 

If that were the case, it would be fine, but after they met Isao, they had a lot of troubles, especially with the Freya and Hephaestus Familia. 

The problem from Freya Familia came from Mia Grand, the owner of Hostess of Fertility, whose pub was broken by Bete. Even though they had agreed to pay 100 million Valis, it was impossible for them to get all of that money so quickly, but somehow the Freya Familia became so aggressive and even ready to attack the Loki Familia if they didn't complete this debt as soon as possible. 

In the end, except for agreeing, there was nothing they could do, so even though they felt reluctant, they paid Mia 100 million Valis. 

Still, Bete, who had caused all of this trouble, was sent directly to the dungeon and told by Loki and everyone to gather all the money as he was the cause of everyone. While he was annoyed and angry, he knew that this trouble was caused by him and he wasn't a man who would run away from his responsibility. 

At the same time, Bete also wanted to show that he was better, so he had been staying inside the dungeon all the time, fighting monsters and getting as much money as he could, especially when he had to pay the debt he had given to his Familia. 

Yet, this wasn't their only problem, especially when Hephaestus wouldn't accept their request to fix their weapons and armor due to being full of many jobs. While there were many Blacksmiths Familias, those they could trust and whose skills were amazing were only limited, and except for the Hephaestus, they could hardly trust those wannabe blacksmiths even if they were cheaper. 

Still, Hephaestus could accept their requests, but they had to pay extra money, and at the same time, she wouldn't accept any work given by Bete. 

In other words, Bete had been blacklisted by the Hephaestus Familia. 

While they were speechless and somehow angry, they couldn't do anything since weapons and armor were something to protect their lives inside the dungeon. They were tools they used to fight and get money. If they didn't have them, then their Familia might be as good as over. 

Now, why did they meet all of those troubles? 

There was only one reason. 

Isao Iinuma. 

If they didn't cause Isao trouble, then would they meet this situation? 

If possible, Loki wanted to make an amend and apologize since the trouble given by Isao was much more troublesome than she had thought. 

"I am not sure." Finn shook his head. "I have heard that they haven't been on the guild for a while." 

"What are they doing?" Gareth was also confused. 

"Hey, Riveria, do you know something?" Loki asked while looking at the elf beauty. 

Riveria sighed and said, "I have heard from Eina that they planned to make a business." 

"B-Bussiness?!" 3x

Loki, Finn, and Gareth looked at Riveria strangely. 

The main source of income for every adventurer was the dungeon. Even those big Familia in the past, such as Zeus Familia and Hera Familia, were the same. Even Loki Familia and the Freya Familia were similar, so they were dumbfounded when they heard Hestia Familia, an expedition type of Familia, wished to make a business. 

"What kind of business?" Finn asked curiously. 

"I am not sure. Eina only told me it is related to the book somehow," Riveria said helplessly, thinking that her niece had been bewitched by Isao and she knew that Eina had completely fallen for Isao, so even if Isao told her that part him away from Eina, she could do nothing. 

The emotion of love was powerful. 

"Eina-chan? Is that scoundrel dating your niece?" Loki asked with a doubt. 

"Yeah..." Riveria sighed helplessly. 

While Finn and Gareth understood why Riveria was depressed, Loki started to murmur, "Hostess of Fertility... Hephaestus... then, Eina... does he want to control Orario?" 

"Huh?" 3x

Finn, Gareth, and Riveria were startled when they heard Loki's murmur. 

"What do you mean, Loki?" Finn asked solemnly. 

"I mean... look at the women that guy has seduced. Mia Grand... one of the Level 6 adventurers in the Orarion and the members of the Freya Familia, then Hephaestus, the goddess of the largest blacksmith Familia, and lastly, Eina, the member of the guild." Loki showed a rarely serious expression on her face, but this time, she showed it, narrowing her eyes as she said her deduction. "By seducing all of them, he has built a powerful force on the Orario. This is a powerful force that is impossible to ignore, and even our Familia is no match for him." 

The combination of Freya Familia, Hephaestus Familia, and the guild. 

Even if the Loki Familia was one of the strongest forces on the Orario, it was impossible to match the power of those three. 

"......." 3x

Gareth blinked his eyes, then said strangely, "But Mia Grand? That guy sure has a unique taste." 

"Right?" Loki nodded. 

"...." Finn and Riveria. 

"Stop saying such vulgar things!" Riveria frowned and said, "I have to admit that he isn't a good person, but don't make such a rude assumption. While he might have an unclear relationship with others, I know that his feelings are sincere toward Eina!" 

Yes, even though Isao was a bad boy, Riveria never thought of him playing with Eina's feelings since someone would ask her to make Eina leave him. Would she play around with her niece's feelings? 

Even with many things happening between them, Riveria thought of Isao as a man who was worthy of trust as he wished the best for the woman of his love. 

"..." 3x

The three looked at Riveria strangely, as they had never thought that she would defend someone, a man at that. 

"Finn, Gareth, what to do? It seems that a bad boy has seduced our proud queen~!" Loki then started to act coquettishly. "Soon, that bad boy might also seduce me, turning our Loki Familia into his playthings~! You have to protect us~!" 

"..." 2x

Finn and Gareth subconsciously glanced at Loki's flat chest, which was much flatter than the street of Orario, before they shook their heads.

"Hey, what's with that gaze?!" Loki was furious at Finn and Gareth's gazes. 

"It should be fine, right?" Finn thought that Loki thought too much. "Moreover, instead of Riveria, shouldn't you be worried that our princess will be seduced by him?" 

Instead of Riveria, Finn, and Gareth believed that Isao would be tempted by Aiz, who was the same age and beautiful. 

Yes, Riveria was beautiful, but what about her age? 

"...did you two think something rude?" Riveria narrowed her gaze at Finn and Gareth. 

"No, no!" 2x

Finn and Gareth shook their heads and quickly denied Riveria's question. 

"By the way, I have wanted to ask, but what is that on the table, Finn?" Gareth asked and looked at the large paper on Finn's table. 

"Oh, this is a newspaper. A new product in Orario. It only appeared yesterday, but I got one since it helped me understand many things about the economy and situation of Orario and the world." Finn showed the newspaper to everyone. 

When this product appeared, Finn bought it as it was cheap, and more importantly, it told him about many situations in the Orario and many parts of the world. 

"World Economy?" 3x

The three looked at the newspaper in Finn's small hands, and then Loki frowned and asked, "...do you think that this is that bad boy's business?" 

"..." 3x

Finn, Gareth, and Riveria glanced at each other and couldn't deny that possibility. 

Ultimate Being from the Tokonosu City 165 Leisure days

3 days ago

Newspaper. 

In a mere two days, this product has skyrocketed to become one of the most sought-after items in Orario, sparking curiosity and interest among the locals and even outsiders. 

Not only was it cheap, but it also allowed people to learn many things. More importantly, the newspaper paper was also a good source for them to wrap their food, just to make a fireplace, or even wipe their butt clean.

Anyway, there were many things that could be used with just a single newspaper. 

The first edition of this newspaper told many things about Orario, the current situation, and many other essential information for everyone. 

Businessmen, traders, and various smart people quickly bought the newspaper, as it helped them learn many things about the world and the economy. 

Frankly, a newspaper wasn't something new, as the guild had its predecessor, which was a parchment, which was usually shared by everyone to announce something huge, such as a rare monster, a legendary adventurer, or various big news on the Orario. 

However, the newspaper was much more complete, the quality of the paper was greater, and it was easier to read.

Even though it had only been two days since this product existed, it caught the eye of many, wondering who the creator of it was. 

"World Economy..."

Deep inside the guild, there was an altar, and a middle-aged man with a dignified appearance read the newspaper in his hands quietly. 

"...was this something created by the child of Hestia Familia?" 

"Yes, Ouranos." 

A figure with a figure that was fully hidden by the hood answered that question. 

"This is a good thing." Ouranos, the creator of the guild, was amazed by the newspaper, and he wondered how the child of Hestia Familia could learn all of that news and be able to build such a deep network in just a short moment of his stay. 

At the same time, he also felt that this item could become something dangerous, yet he shook his head, thinking that he might be overthinking. 

The newspaper's benefits were great, and it could even popularize the Orario by turning it into an unshakeable center of the world, which was one of his aims. 

Ouranos thought for a while and asked, "Do you think we can ask the newspaper to talk about Monsterphilia?" 

"I will ask." 

"By the way, isn't the boy close to one of our staff?" Ouranos asked. 

"Yes. It seems they are dating." 

"Is that so? Then, you should send her to meet him." 

"Okay." 

As the hoodie figure disappeared, Ouranos muttered the name of the young man he would definitely not forget: "Iinuma Isao..." 

At the same time, Riveria walked out, shaking her head, thinking about the newspaper, which was based on Loki, which was something created by Isao.

Amazing, she thought. 

Riveria should be in doubt, but she felt that everything was possible for that boy. Still, this also made her wonder what he should do to him, especially when he had asked her to make Eina leave him. 

Yet, with all of his achievements, if he didn't feel that he was worthy of Eina, then who would be suitable for Eina? 

If there was something that made her unhappy about him, it was his gossip, having many unclear relationships with many other women. 

However, compared to having a relationship with another man, it was far better, she thought. 

'No, no. I can't think of that.' 

If possible, Riveria wanted to talk with Isao more, clearing up her doubt, but she didn't even know where he was, so there was nothing she could do. 

Nevertheless, she only needed to wait for a while since Loki would attend the "Banquet of Gods," and when that happened, Loki could ask Hestia, the goddess who got lucky by getting Isao. 

Still, as she thought to go out to clear up her mind, she noticed Aiz, who seemed to be in the middle of practice, swinging her rapier wildly like a hurricane that destroyed many things. Even though many thought her movement was powerful, she could tell that Aiz was in the middle of a dilemma, troubled by something. 

Watching all of those people who just observed Aiz from a distance and were unable to approach her, Riveria sighed and called Aiz out. "Aiz, what's wrong?" 

Aiz quickly stopped, then shook her head after Riveria's question. "No-Nothing..." 

"Is that so? Then, how about you follow me?" 

"Dungeon?" 

"No, I want to relax for a bit." 

Aiz hesitated, lowering her head until Riveria said, "I want to meet Isao Iinuma." 

"Okay." 

Somehow, Aiz agreed. 

Riveria looked at Aiz strangely, then asked, "Why did you agree so suddenly?" 

"I... I want to learn more about him." 

"Oh? Do you have an interest in him?" Riveria was surprised since it was the first time Aiz had an interest other than sword, magic, dungeon, or getting stronger. 

"Yes." Aiz thought that Isao was so powerful. Even though he was just a Level 2 adventurer, he could do something incredible, such as defeating hundreds of the Apollo Familia with ease and even defeating Bete. Moreover, he could even stay in the dungeon for six days continuously, without eating, sleeping, and fighting all the time. Lastly, he could become a Level 2 adventurer in just a mere two weeks! 

Last time, Aiz thought that she could learn Isao's secret by fighting him. 

Yet, unexpectedly, Isao would run away, and even though Aiz often went to the guild or dungeon to search for him, she was unable to find him. 

'I have to find him...' 

Aiz thought almost every day became an obsession, especially for her, who wished to become powerful. 

Watching Aiz's strange state, Riveria hesitated for a while, then sighed. "Let's go." 

"Okay." 

As the two left, many hesitated, but in the end, they didn't follow them, especially when they knew how weird Aiz's state was. 

"Aiz-san..." 

A certain cute elf stared at Aiz's back longingly. 

Aiz didn't notice this gaze and kept looking around as she followed Riveria. "Where are we going?" 

"Hmm? Well, let's just walk around the neighborhood first. I have heard that there is a new bookstore." 

"Bookstore?" 

Unlike the others, l hardly went out from the headquarters of the Loki Familia, Twilight Manor, since she didn't like crowds and spent her days either studying or reading, so when she heard that there was a new bookstore nearby, she couldn't help but wish to check it. 

Hearing that, Aiz hesitated, as reading wasn't one of her favorite things. 

"I will buy you Jagamaru-kun too later." 

Aiz showed a troubled face, but then she nodded and followed Riveria firmly. 

Riveria chuckled when she saw Aiz's reaction, and she also understood why Aiz didn't want to follow her to the bookstore. 

Unlike the others, their relationship was so close that Riveria often took care of Aiz from childhood. They were inseparable, and it wouldn't be wrong to say that they had a daughter and a mother-like relationship, especially when Riveria didn't have a child on her own. 

Aiz, who was a child, happened to be on Riveria's side when she needed someone to pour all of her maternal feelings, and those feelings continued until now. 

Still, as they got closer to the new bookstore, Riveria saw someone familiar. "Eina?" 

"Ah, Riveria-sama!" Eina was startled when she saw Riveria and then noticed Aiz. "Aiz-san, too." 

Aiz nodded at Eina's greeting. "Eina..." Still, as she wasn't good at communication, she could only say one or two words. 

"Aren't you working, Eina?" Riveria asked curiously. 

"No, I am taking a leave today," Eina said calmly.

"Why?" Riveria knew that Eina was a workaholic, so it surprised her when she knew that Eina had taken a leave.

"Isao-kun opened his bookstore today." 

Even though Eina said those words calmly, Riveria could hear how proud Eina was of her man's achievement, which made her helpless. 

"Then, this bookstore?" 

"Yes, it is his." Eina nodded. 

"..." Riveria then looked at the new bookstore, which had a clean and neat image. The store's door was even opened automatically, and she saw many people coming in and out from time to time. 

"Do you want to buy books, Riveria-sama? There are many rare books inside." 

"Really? Let me see." 

With Eina's lead, Riveria entered the bookstore and saw many people inside. Even though it was rare to see someone who read a book on the Orario, all of them quickly gathered when they knew there was a new bookstore. 

"The business is good," Riveria commented. 

"Yes." 

"Will he stop becoming an adventurer and becoming a businessman?"

If so, Riveria would be glad, thinking that Isao could take care of Eina well. 

"Will he stop becoming an adventurer?" 

Yet, the one who reacted the most was Aiz, who showed disbelief. 

"....." 2x

Eina and Riveria looked at Aiz strangely, but then Eina shook her head softly and said, "No, he will still become an adventurer." 

"That's great...' 

'What was so great?' 2x

Eina and Riveria looked at Aiz strangely. 

Still, under the leadership of Eina, Riveria picked so many books. She even picked up many stationary items which were sold in this bookstore. 

Even Aiz also took a cute mascot doll in the shape of Jagamarukun. "What is this?" 

"It's a doll." 

"You like that, Aiz?" Riveria asked curiously since it was her first time seeing Aiz to have an interest in anything other than fighting. 

Aiz hesitated, but she hugged the large doll in her arms tightly, showing a cute expression as she closed her eyes, before showing excitement, reluctance, and hesitation before she put it back, but then, she was stopped by Riveria and Eina. 

"Let's buy it!" 2x

Aiz was so cute, so they decided to treat her! 

Nevertheless, as they had bought so much, it was quite troublesome to bring all of them. Fortunately, their home was quite close, so it didn't matter. 

Still, Eina hesitated for a while and said, "Riverisa-sama, Aiz-san, do you want to go to the secret reading room?" 

"Secret reading room?" 2x

"It is a room made by Isao-kun for reading. Only a few know and can enter. There is also good tea and coffee there. If you want, you can read your book there." 

"...okay?" Riveria was curious and nodded. 

"Is he there?" Aiz simply asked. 

"No, he went out to take care of his business." Eina sighed helplessly. "He was too busy sometimes." If possible, she wanted to meet more, but they had only met at night. Still, she was comfortable every time they met. Frankly, she didn't feel angry at him and understood him. Instead, if possible, she wanted to help him more, especially when she knew that it was also for their future. 

Watching Eina's womanly expression, Riveria felt strange somehow. After all, Eina was her niece, yet she had a man already. She, who was almost a hundred years old, hadn't even found a man, which made her feel slightly urgent and hurt somehow. 

Nevertheless, the three walked to the back area of the bookstore and then climbed up the stairs before they saw the door that led them into a large, comfortable room with a lovely scent. 

'The air feels nice...' 

Riveria looked curiously at the item inside the room, which gave fresh and cold air. 

"Oh? Advisor-kun?" Hestia was there, drinking tea elegantly while reading a book. 

"Hestia-sama." Eina bowed her head respectfully. 

"Are they... the child of Loki?" Hestia looked at Riveria and Aiz curiously. 

"Yes, Hestia-sama." Eina nodded. 

"Well, I don't mind them being here, but you two, don't tell Loki, okay? She is too noisy!"

"I agree."

Unexpectedly, Riveria nodded.

"Good." Hestia nodded with a smile, then continued to read the book while sipping her jasmine tea. "You can sit anywhere. If you want to, you can try the tea or coffee here." 

"Thank you, Hestia-sama." 2x

Riveria and Aiz thanked Hestia. 

Hestia waved her hand since she didn't have much of a hate toward the children of Loki except for Bete. Moreover, Isao had told her that it would be unfair to treat all the members of Loki Familia like Loki or Bete. 

'Isao is amazing...' Hestia thought when she heard Isao's words about how they would treat the Loki Familia. Moreover, if possible, she also wanted to live a peaceful life, read a book, and enjoy a leisurely life, which was why it was better this way. 

In the case of Hephaestus, she would say, "As expected, someone of a big size has a big heart." 

There was no one other than Hestia inside, but Eina told them many things about this room, and it was better not to tell anyone as it would be rowdy. 

"What do you want to drink? There are many types of drinks here," Eina said. 

"What is Hestia-sama drinking?" Riveria asked curiously since the smell was nice. 

"It's jasmine tea. It has a calming effect and helps with digestion." 

Frankly, this was Eina's favorite place, and she often played in this room. 

"Then I want to try that," Riveria said. 

"How about you, Aiz-san?" Eina asked. 

Aiz wasn't sure, but Riveria asked, "Is there something that is sweet?" 

"Oh, there is milk tea. I will make it." 

"Milk tea?" 2x

"It's sweet and nice. You should try it." 

"Okay." Aiz nodded. 

With the help of Eina, the two then soon received their jasmine tea and milk tea. 

'It's warm and gentle,' they thought, sipping their respective drinks. 

While Riveria read her new book quietly, Aiz held her new doll, hugged it, and somehow slept on the sofa quietly after she finished her milk tea. 

Watching Aiz, who somehow fell asleep, Riveria was helpless, but she smiled, then looked at the crowd from the window of the room, spending her day in the leisurely day. 

Still, where was Isao? 

Isao was busy repaying his debt to Hephaestus. 

Ultimate Being from the Tokonosu City 166 How dare you deceive me!

2 days ago

"Hephaestus-sama, this isn't good... what if someone enters this place..." 

"It's fine. You don't have to worry."

Hephaestus couldn't help but revel in the torment he was about to unleash on this young man. "Or did you forget your debt, Isao? You don't want your goddess to be miserable, do you?" 

Showing a reluctant and forced expression, Isao sighed and let his body be tormented by Hephaestus. 

Yet, if someone saw their position, they would think it would be Hephaestus, who was being bullied by Isao, especially when he sat on her chair while she licked his erection deliciously. Before, she was being pounded from behind, begging for mercy. 

"Ah~! Oh~! No~! It's too fierce, Isao-kun~!" 

"Didn't you want to punish me before? This is your punishment for being so cheeky!" 

"Oh~!" 

After the two of them had fun in Hephaestus' office, they lay on the bed in the room secretly made inside her office. 

Frankly, Hephaestus had fun, having the role of an evil loan shark who forced the loved one of the debtors to pay their debt with his body. 

Still, even though Hephaestus was the one who bullied Isao in the beginning, in the end, he was the one who bullied her. 

Yet, she didn't hate it and loved the feeling of being humiliated by this young man. 

While Isao was speechless, as a deity, Hephaestus had been living so long, so he knew that she needed a lot of spice to their sex. "Next time, try to wear..." 

Hephaestus blushed, then complained softly, "Even though you are the one who has the debt, why am I the one who is embarrassed?" 

Isao laughed and patted Hephaestus' soft buttocks, hugging her in his arms, and said, "I will pay the debt soon." 

"You don't have to worry about the debt. Or rather, you don't have to pay." 

500 million Valis might be a huge amount of money for others, but for Hephaestus, it was nothing. 

"It's fine. I will have a lot of money soon." 

"You are right." Hephaestus nodded, then kissed his cheek lovingly. "You are amazing, dear." 

"Right?"

Soon, Hephaestus felt something hard on her buttocks, making her blush again, but she didn't say anything and just rolled her body, showing her raw bottom in his direction while hugging her pillow, showing her submission. 

"Dear... how about more?" 

"..." 

Isao took a deep breath and felt helpless by how evil the goddess was. 

In this world, his purpose to get stronger never changed, but on his journey to become one, he faced many trials, including this evil goddess, who tried to seduce him and stop him from working hard. 

'I can't allow myself to sink any longer!' 

Still, he also couldn't let others be tormented by this evil goddess, so he took his responsibility to take her down! 

"Oh~!" 

As Isao was on his journey to take down the evil goddess, he couldn't help but recall what he had done in the past week. 

Newspaper. 

This was his new venture, and as for why he chose this business, it was because it would give him the power to control the crowd. 

With the power of newspapers, he could control what people believed and did not believe. 

Now, how could he get all of that news easily?

It was by using his ability to create a living being from a part of his body and combining it with the ability of the deities, which he gained after replicating their DNAs, that he was able to create a water-like screen that could show the real-time broadcast of something they wished to see, like how they could watch his War Game with the Apollo Familia. 

By using that ability and connecting it with all the birds that he had spread throughout the world, he could easily watch various things that happened in the world, giving him unlimited news for his newspaper. 

World Economy. 

This was the name of his newspaper and was also to show his ambition to control the economy of this world. 

Frankly, sooner or later, he was sure that many people would realize the importance of newspapers, and by then, he would gain many competitors, but it didn't matter since if the newspaper became popular, then he would get more money. 

Why so?

It was because not only did he have a newspaper business, but he also had paper, a printing machine, ink, stationary, and many other businesses related to publishing, newspapers, and many others. 

Moreover, he also welcomed a competition, but then, could they defeat him?

After all, unlike them, his men were loyal, and he could get news so easily in this world. 

Moreover, with the backward development of communication technology, they couldn't get news as fast as he, who could control animals and people to collect news for him. 

Frankly, this world's technology was unique. 

There was a lamp, refrigerator, and many other electrical equipment that one would usually see in the modern world, but instead of electricity, they used a magic stone, a drop item gained after defeating monsters inside the dungeon. 

Yet, even so, many things were quite backward, such as how people still moved by carriage or most of the items were made from wood. 

If he had to say, this world was quite extreme since something was so advanced, yet some areas were too backward. 

In that case, Isao didn't have anything to hold back and decided to develop various technologies to get money. He was sure that the guild would support him since, as the only supplier of the magic stone with many appliances developed, their income would naturally increase. 

Still, before that, Isao decided to make the newspaper as it would give him the power to manipulate the crowd. 

However, to protect all of his business, Isao knew that he had to gain more power and become stronger, so after everything went in the right direction, he had to go to the dungeon. 

'No, let's go to another world too.' 

With that decision, he left Hephaestus' room and was ready to prepare himself for the dungeon, but then, he happened to meet a young man with red hair. 

While Isao was okay, the young man was startled and fell to the ground. "Ah!" 

"Are you okay?" Isao asked and helped the young man who fell on the ground. 

"Ah, um, I am okay. Thanks." The young man nodded and accepted Isao's help. 

[You have acquired Welf Crozzo's DNA.]

[Do you want to absorb it?]

Isao looked at the young man strangely, but he didn't say anything and left. "Then, I will leave first." 

"Um, wait!" 

"Yes?" Isao looked at Welf with a doubt. 

"Are you... Iinuma Isao?" Welf asked. 

"Yes." Isao nodded. 

Isao knew that he was famous, so he wasn't surprised that Welf knew him. 

"Did you just leave Hephaestus-sama's room?" Welf asked in doubt and appeared so cornered. 

"Yes." Isao's expression even became strange. 

"Sorry for asking such a rude question, but can I ask why?" Welf seemed to be in a dire situation. 

"I am just paying my debt." 

"Ah, I see... that's great..." Welf muttered while sighing in relief. 

Isao looked at this young man for a while, hesitating, then shook his head before he left directly. 

Welf didn't stop him any longer; no, he couldn't since he knew that while Isao might appear gentle, Isao was a ruthless guy, but for one thing, he was glad that Isao didn't have a relationship with Hephaestus. 

Still, Welf's thoughts were of no concern for Isao, but after he walked out from Hephaestus' office, he decided to visit Babel, looking around curiously, thinking to get something for Daphne and Cassandra as they had helped him so much for the past week. More importantly, he prepared to go on the expedition soon, so he also had to prepare their equipment since, unlike him, they didn't have a goddess as their lover. 

But fortunately, they had a good leader like him. 

Still, as he was window shopping, suddenly someone crashed into him and was about to fall, but unlike Welf, he let go; he caught this person in his arms. 

"Are you okay?" 

When he asked this question, he smelled a lovely scent and an indescribable softness of the body that only came from a female body. Even though the figure in his arms was wearing a hoodie, he could tell that this figure was a beautiful woman. 

'Ah, this...' 

Isao could somehow tell who this person was, but he pretended that he didn't know. "Are you okay?" 

"Ah..." Somehow, hearing his question, the female reached her ankle and said, "It seems my leg is hurt." 

"Really? That's not good. Can you walk?" 

"I am sorry, but it seems that I can't walk. Can you bring me to my room on the top of this floor?" 

Her voice was like the most beautiful bell, somehow telling him to fall in love quickly. 

Yet, Isao wasn't a weak man who would succumb to a woman. However, as a good person, he was worried about this woman's well-being, so he decided to help her. 

"Is that fine?" 

"Yes." The female seemed to be troubled. "I live alone... so it is a little hard for me." 

"Really? Let me help you." 

"Thank you, Isao-kun." 

"Do you know me?" 

"I think everyone in the Orario knows about you," the woman under the hood showed a beautiful smile. 

"I see, but what's your name?" 

"Oh, my name is Freya. You can call me by my name directly." 

"Freya?" 

As Isao carried her, Freya also took off her hoodie, showing off her beautiful face. Like his presence, when she appeared, she attracted everyone's attention like gravity that pulled an apple to fall into the ground. 

Still, Isao was calm, but at the same time, he realized that he was trapped by this woman. 

Using his kindness, she tried to seduce him. 

'As expected, there are no good goddesses in this world...' 

Isao wanted to cry, thinking that as a good person, he was often being toyed like this, but it was why he knew that he had to stop her, so no good person would be harmed by this goddess. 

His motto was to treasure the good women and educate the bad women. 

Still, he thought that this goddess would pretend when they entered her room, telling him to check her white, beautiful feet that were hurt after she fell before attacking him. 

Only he realized that he had underestimated her since, as they entered the room, she directly attacked him, who believed in her innocence. 

How cunning! How cruel! How evil!

"Wa-Wait!" 

"There is no wait. Look, you're all excited here..." Freya looked at him lustfully, pushing him into her bed as she lay on his waist, rubbing against his erection that was impossible to hide under his pants. 

"No, you can't do this. This is inappropriate." 

"Fufufu... it's too late~! You can't escape Isao-kun~!" 

Gritting his teeth, Isao hated himself for being deceived. 

His kindness was once again being used, but as he had never given up, he wouldn't bow his head and taught this woman why she shouldn't become a bad woman! 

"Oh~! 

His revenge starts now! 

Ultimate Being from the Tokonosu City 167 I am weak

2 days ago

Under his education, Freya laid motionlessly on the bed. 

Isao didn't show much change in his expression; he only wore his clothes quietly and with a helpless expression. 

The goddess of beauty. 

Any man who saw her would become her slave, ready to be played by her. 

Yet, such a woman was no longer there, as Isao had vanquished her and educated her so she wouldn't do anything bad. Still, as expected, as he had gotten Freya's DNA, he knew that he could become the most handsome guy in the world, but somehow... he hesitated as he didn't want to become the most handsome. 

His face was good enough as it was, and being more handsome would give him more trouble than advantage. 

Look at Freya. 

Unlike him, who could walk freely without worry, Freya had to hide her face, so she was surrounded by many people due to her charm. 

Being handsome or beautiful was fine and all, but if it was too much, it would be an inconvenience, he thought. 

Still, when Freya woke up, she saw that Isao seemed ready to go out. She blinked her beautiful, sleepy eyes and pulled the blanket to cover her white, lascivious body. 

"Don't go home. Stay here." 

"No, I will go back." 

Frankly, Isao was scared of Freya and wanted to go back, hoping for Hestia to comfort him. 

After all, he had to admit that Freya was a formidable opponent, especially when he thought her lower mouth stretched and contracted like a ring of leeches, sucking his white essence greedily. 

'As expected, I am still weak.' 

Isao knew that he had to become stronger, or else he would be defeated. 

However, his answer stunned Freya, so she said, "Stay here and be part of my Familia." It was her first time to feel so comfortable, both soul and body, so how could she let him go?

"No, I will go back now, and I won't change my Familia." 

"...." 

Freya felt strange, so she moved closer and directly walked toward him all four, showing her shapely naked body to this young man. 

"Look at me." 

Isao was startled, then shook his head. "No, I will go back." He was frightened at this moment, feeling helpless since Freya used her charm ability. 

"...you are not affected by my ability?" Freya looked at Isao with a complicated gaze. 

"I am not." Isao sighed helplessly, trying to endure the heat on his body. 

"Really? Your thing is hard, though." Freya smiled lustfully as she opened her pink lips, showing a wet mouth and sticking out her tongue. 

'This woman...' 

Isao took a deep breath, feeling regret as he wasn't prepared to face Freya. At that moment, he was like a newbie who faced the last boss in the MMORPG game.

He regretted being a fool and naive. 

As expected of the deities, even though they were hedonists who drowned themselves in pleasure, they weren't something to be underestimated. 

Still, he was strong enough to handle this heat. "Your body isn't strong enough. Go back and sleep." 

"Well, you are right." Even though Freya was a goddess, as she had come to the lower world, her body was just as strong as a normal human's. Under the fierce power of Isao, she could only succumb like Hephaestus. Still, she couldn't give up, and said, "Say, how about you become my husband?" 

"..." 

Isao's expression was so strange. "...you want me to become your husband?" 

"Yup." Freya giggled like a little girl, resting her chin on her thigh, pressing her beautiful face on his erection, sniffing into his cock, and looking at him lustfully. "You have made me like this; you have to take responsibility for me~!" 

Unlike the others, this cock of his was amazing, and it gave her feelings that she had never felt before. More importantly, he could change its size as he wished, giving her a pleasure that she had never thought existed. 

More importantly, his charm... had become more impressive somehow. 

It was her first time to feel like this, or rather, she realized that she had fallen in love~! 

However—

"Impossible!" 

"....." 

Freya was stunned when she heard Isao's answer and directly grabbed his erection strongly with her beautiful hands, rubbing the tip fiercely. "Why?!" Even though she was a goddess of beauty, she was also a goddess of war. Facing such a rejection, how could she not get angry? 

"I am a scumbag. I want to sleep with more women than you alone." 

Once again, Isao pictured himself as a bag guy so Freya would leave him. "If you want a husband, you should go after the boy in your Familia. Hestia told me that you have a kind and gentle boy. You should choose him as your husband since even if he knows that you have slept with me, I am sure that he will forgive you." 

Yes, instead of him, Freya should have married Bell Cranel. 

As the protagonist of this world, Bell had fallen for Freya, and naturally, If he could marry her, he would be happy! 

As a good person, Isao decided to give up Freya and gave her to Bell. 

'What a good person I am...' 

"You mean Bell?" Freya asked. 

"Yeah." Isao nodded. 

"He is a good boy..." Freya shook her head, then looked at him with misty eyes. "You really don't want to marry me..."

"I am really not a suitable husband for you. I am a bastard, and I am not satisfied with your body alone. You should search for a better person." 

Isao never gave up and tried to make Bell Freya's husband since he felt that Bell was the most suitable husband for Freya. As long as Bell became Freya's husband, he would be more comfortable as he didn't have to take responsibility for Freya. At the same time, Freya would be happy since someone could take care of her dearly. 

"Or rather, I won't visit you if you don't marry someone. See you later. I have to go back." 

Isao ran away directly since, at this level, this wasn't an opponent that he could face, and he had to prepare himself.

Before Freya could stop him, Isao had already left. 

"...."

Nevertheless, Freya fell into silence, thinking about his words seriously. 

On the other hand, Isao, who had run away, had already walked out from the Babel. He never looked back and ran as fast as he could. At this point, he realized what kind of a weakling he was. 

Even though Isao wished to do the good, his power was limited. 

There was a limit to his power, and everyone also had their own way of living. 

Forcing others to accept his way of life was unacceptable, and it was impossible for him to become Freya's husband, especially when he considered Freya's conduct. Moreover, begging for a woman to change for him definitely wasn't his style. 

If they couldn't change for him and stayed the way they were, then in his case, he would just leave them. 

After all, he never lacked women. 

Even when he walked like this, he could see many women wishing to open their legs for him. Still, he wasn't an easy guy that would open his pants for anyone. 

Still, he would remember this mistake. He wouldn't do it again, and he would definitely be faithful to the woman who had given up everything for him. 

'Eina... Hestia... I'm sorry.' 

Isao regretted his actions, wondering why he couldn't control his lower body. 

'If I am a little stronger...' 

Only as he lamented at this weakness did he hit someone, but before this person fell, he quickly caught this person. 

"I am sorry." 

"N-No, it's okay." 

Still, when he saw the person in his arms, he fell in silence. The person in his arms was a beautiful woman with honey-colored wavy hair and gigantic breasts that were even bigger than Hestia's. Yet, unlike Hestia, she had the charm of a mature woman, and at the same time, a gentle and flower-like scent invaded his nasal cavity, heating his blood once again. 

While he observed her, she also observed him. 

"Ah, you are Iinuma Isao-kun?" The goddess was surprised. 

[You have acquired Demeter's DNA.]

[Do you want to absorb it?]

"...you are?" 

Even though Isao knew who this goddess was, he pretended that he didn't know. 

"I am Demeter. I have a good relationship with Hestia." 

"Is that so?" Isao was surprised, but then he quickly let go of Demeter after he helped her to stand up. "I am sorry for hugging you so tightly like that." 

"No-No, it's fine... I like it when it is rough..." Demeter muttered with a blush. 

"..." Isao. 

"Ah, it hurts." Demeter suddenly flinched when she tried to walk. 

"Are you okay?" 

"I am not sure, but my leg seems uncomfortable..." 

"I am sorry." 

"It's fine, but... I might not be able to walk home..." Demeter showed a helpless expression. 

"....." 

Isao's lips trembled, cursing all the goddesses who tried to seduce him. Yet, as a good person, how could he ignore her? 

"I am sorry. If you don't mind, let me help you to go home."

"Ah, is that okay? Aren't you busy?" 

"I have hit into you. Of course, I have to take responsibility." 

Demeter smiled when she saw his determined expression. "You are a good boy." 

'You are a bad goddess...' Isao thought inwardly. "Let me help you carry those things too. They look heavy." 

"Yeah, they are heavy." Demeter rubbed her shoulders, causing her breasts to shake violently. 

If it had been before, Isao might have lost control, but he had experience with Shizuka, Kyoko, Yuriko, and even Kiriko in the world of "High School of the Dead," so his gaze was polite and never showed lust toward Demeter. 

"...where is your place?" 

"It's just over there." 

As Demeter guided him to his house, the same thing happened once again, and like before, he was trapped by this goddess. 

'I am sorry...'

Realizing how weak he was, Isao wished to become stronger. 

Only Freya, who had been hesitant, noticed the pure black soul that swallowed everything in his surroundings and moved into Demeter Familia, causing her expression to become ugly.

Thinking about Isao's words, Freya thought for a while, then called one of her trusted followers. "Ottar." 

"Yes." 

A giant boar man answered Freya's call respectfully. 

"Can you call me Bell Cranell here?" 

Bell's plot starts here! 

Ultimate Being from the Tokonosu City 168 Isao will change (Mahouka Koukou no Rettousei)

Yesterday

"The reason why I have slept with Freya and Demeter isn't because I want to educate them!

"It's because I feel lustful toward them, and I want to sleep with them! 

"I am not the good guy that I have thought to be! I am a bastard who wants to sleep with all beautiful women! 

"I have betrayed the trust of my family! I am trash!" 

On the sunny and hot beach, Isao shouted with all of his might, telling all the lies that he had used to accommodate all the evil things that he had done in the world of Danmachi. He was like a sinner who confessed his sin inside the confessional. 

Even though he had said that he had done everything as a good person and cursed those goddesses for tempting him, he knew that if he could control himself better and not follow his lust, then everything would be good. 

Yet, he couldn't. 

He tried to mask everything with "good," yet what he did was disgusting. 

Why did he become like this?! 

As he shouted, confessing all of his lies in front of the sea, Isao felt better somehow, and he also felt ready to face himself. He wasn't as good a guy as he thought he was, but even so, he never gave up on becoming one. 

As for his mistakes in sleeping with Freya, this was a force majeure.

It was like how an apple fell to the ground to gravity, or a disaster would destroy many things; sleeping with Freya was something that was out of control, something that couldn't be changed no matter what. 

As they happened to be his type. 

Yet, as someone who tried to become a good person, he knew that he couldn't do this any longer. 

He couldn't stop Freya's happiness, and he knew that Freya had to be someone who could take care of herself. Instead of him, there were many men who would take care of Freya dearly. 

While he felt reluctant to let go of Freya, he decided to be mature and let her go. 

It was like the case with Miku Yuuki in the world of the "High School of the Dead." 

Isao never touched Miku when she was single, but when she had a boyfriend who could take care of her dearly, he knew that there was no need for him to worry about anything, so he decided to comfort her when she needed in him as he knew that it wasn't easy to live in a world filled with zombies. 

Like Miku, Isao should treat Freya similarly. 

At this moment, he decided to be satisfied with just Hephaestus and Demeter. 

There were no more bad guys!

"I will control my lower body better!" 

As Isao shouted his vow to the sky and ocean, he believed that he could do it! 

If he had an urge, he should go back to the world of "Kimetsu no Yaiba" and "Highschool of the Dead." 

Still, as he released all of his frustrations, he looked at the world around him. 

Yup, once again, he was in another world, but he wasn't in the world of "Kimetsu no Yaiba," "Highschool of the Dead," or "Tondemo Skill de Isekai Hourou Meshi." It was a new world that he had never been to. 

"Where is this?" 

Nevertheless, Isao felt that this world was quite familiar. 

"Is it Japan?" 

Still, he was glad that he was teleported to an empty beach without anyone, but he was also helpless as he couldn't see people, which could help him understand the world's situation by replicating their DNA. 

After watching the ocean for a while, he knew that he could control the birds and the fish, but he didn't intend to replicate their DNA to understand the situation. Instead, he thought for a while and changed his clothes into something suitable for the beach. 

If it was before, he might have been troubled, but it was different now, especially when he had the skill of Mukoda, which gave him the ability to buy anything through an online shopping skill. 

After buying several clothes, Isao quickly changed into a simple white shirt, light blue shorts, and sandals. 

Changing his clothes, he walked around the beach curiously, trying to understand the situation of this world through geography. Unfortunately, he could see nothing, but for one thing, he knew that he wasn't in the past anymore, like how in the world of "Kimetsu no Yaiba," "Danmachi," or "Tondemo Skill." 

"Is it like the world of High School of the Dead?" 

Isao looked around, but it seemed that it wasn't the case. 

"It seems the world is is more advanced. Is it in the future?" 

Isao wasn't sure, but as he walked, he saw a lot of people who wanted to surround a boy and a girl. 

The girl was sleeping, but the boy faced all of those people calmly. 

"Fifty people?" 

Isao's lips twitched, wondering how an adult could gang up on a boy with so many of the numbers. Even if he was a little far away, he could hear the conflict between them was about to break out. 

"Oi!" 

As his voice was loud, it naturally attracted all of them. 

"Don't gang up on a kid." 

Even if he was a bastard, he never bullied the weak. 

A group of fifty adults wanted to beat up a little boy, and at the same time, he could also see that their eyes seemed to be attracted to the girl who was protected by the boy. 

Isao sighed, feeling helpless, wondering why one couldn't have a normal taste in a woman. 

At the same time, he realized that his taste in a mature woman was much healthier than those of other people. 

"Who the hell are you?!" 

"If you don't want to be hurt, just stay there!" 

"Don't fuck with us!" 

Unlike the boy, all of them could feel the aura of extraordinary from Isao, so they hesitated and tried to scare Isao verbally. Moreover, similar to the girl, Isao's appearance seemed to be on the same level or even above. 

The boy was also in a daze when he saw Isao for the first time. 

Yet, Isao didn't care about their anger and just beat all of them. 

"Wha—!" 

Bang! Bang! Bang!

As Isao beat all of them, he replicated their DNA and understood that he was in Okinawa, and at that moment, it was August 2092. Unfortunately, he couldn't learn anything more as those guys were stupid and never learned, so the information he could get was limited. 

Or rather, except for location and time, he hardly learned anything. 

Still, as Isao beat up all of the fifty adults with ease, the boy was stunned in a place and looked at him in a daze. 

In less than a minute, all of those people were beaten by Isao. 

"You okay, boy?" 

However, the boy didn't answer him and seemed to be tense, watching him cautiously. 

Isao only smiled and flicked this boy's forehead. 

Bang!

The boy subconsciously held his forehead in pain, then he felt his hair rubbed by this young man. 

"Didn't your parents teach you manners and what to do when someone helps you?" 

Only Isao felt regret when he said those words, especially when he saw the name of the boy through his ability to replicate someone's DNA. 

[You have acquired Shiba Tatsuya's DNA.]

[Do you want to absorb it?]

"..." 

'Is this the world of Mahouka?' 

Isao was at a loss for words.
