Chapter 120

After relaxing with my girls for the night we all awoke bright in early with Tsubaki coming into the basement to wake up Hephaestus so they could walk back to the Familia and get ready for another day of work. "Hephaestus why are you getting up so early." Hestia, ground out.

"Unlike you, I actually have a hard job to do every day, Hestia." Hephaestus muttered as she put back on her tight pants and fixed her hair in a mirror.

Hestia could only groan in defeat at her fellow goddess's words burying her face into our beds plush pillows as she sought to sleep till noon as was customary. Freya on the other hand snickered as she brushed my hair and helped me put on my armor which she enjoyed as a morning ritual.

Granted Hestia was an amazing woman but honestly if she hasn't gotten her twelve plus hours of sleep, she isn't really much of a person at that point with how lethargic she gets so Freya has basically claimed Hestia's zombie hours as her time and Hestia actually was happy with that as she saw as us leaving her alone as being able to sleep longer without being disturbed by us.

"So, you kids are planning on killing the Amphisbaena today, right?" Tsubaki asked and I nodded with my mind flashing to the portraits made of the two headed massive dragon that liked to swim through water floors.

"Hmm well with you and Bell being able to fly between the floors it shouldn't be too hard to find the boss as its traveling through the waterways." Tsubaki shrugged.

I kinda want to see where they used the corpse of the Leviathan to refine a shield to block off the tunnel from the dungeon to the massive lake of Melen. I wouldn't be surprised if it was a diamond or even barely a starlight tier fusing material though I can't in good conscious remove that barrier as too many people died making it and would die if a massive deluge of monster flowed out into the countryside from the lake of Melen.

Sucks for the Zeus and Hera Familia though, I mean they could only use the corpse of the Leviathan to block off an exit to the dungeon and the Behemoth was so toxic that any smith that tried to work with it just died from the fumes which honestly if they were able to distill and concentrate the toxins within that monster, they very well could have killed the One-Eyed Black Dragon with it possibly.

"Yeah, we got some stuff to setup then we will kill the boss within the day." I said giving Freya one last hug as I stood up. "Alright. Well, Tsubaki it was nice having you here and I hope that you and Gyomei can find some common ground but in the meantime we all need to get ready." I said politely asking them to get moving but I didnt send Hephaestus off without another tight hug and a casual ass grab making her roll her eyes.

Soon enough with Hephaestus and Tsubaki out of the way I gathered all the combat members of the Familia which consisted of the surviving Hashira, Tanjiro, Nezuko, Bell, Aisha, Haruhime, Lili, and that was all with how Ryuu had been busy helping her goddess Astrea get settled in here at the Hestia manor as she had been living out of the city in one of the neighboring towns.

So, I was happy to be able to finally meet her goddess though I was bit anxious at the thought of the goddess being some justice driven nutcase like some of the other gods I have seen being controlled by their domains.

As I went on to explain the Amphisbaena the boss we were to fight to Bell and the others who didnt bother to research or just didnt have the time in the case of the new arrivals I noticed the non-combat focused people like Tamayo had drifted over and were listening in intently to my explanations of the boss and the surrounding floors monsters.

"Alright so the Amphisbaena is a double headed large western dragon with four legs and is a highly capable swimmer. Now the two biggest problems are the heads of said monster with the right one able to spew out a crimson mist that's toxic and is capable of nullifying magic on a large scale, the left head is capable of spewing out blue flames that can burn even in water and loves to stick to surfaces like an oil fire." I then went onto explain how its eyes were sensitive weakness's and how under no circumstances no one other than Aisha who had the diving Skill and Giyu with his Water Breathing was to get in the water with the creature.

Tamayo raised her hand up to ask a question with the other combat members conversed lightly between themselves. "And how dangerous with this quest to kill this boss be?"

I blinked and shook my head with a smile. "Honestly I am sure that I alone could kill after a long fight, but several of our members are getting ready to level up and killing it would provide the high quality excellia they need to level up. So long as no level one gets within range of one of the heads of the Amphisbaena, I cannot realistically see how anyone can die so long as they watch out for any encroaching monsters as any injuries that don't instantly kill can be healed with Elixers."

She nodded in understanding then turned to her adopted son who helping her take notes. "Yushiro could you please use your invisibility demon art to gather some samples from the monsters and this Amphisbaena for our study, I wish to attempt to clone the dragon liver the Amphisbaena drops if at all possible."

Well with my Luck development skill its basically assured that said dragon live will drop for me but I doubt she will be able to clone the actual dragon liver the monster drops but I could be wrong with her demon nonsense.

After getting everyone now to literally cut off a chunk of their flesh to sacrifice to Hestia's flame teleportation system to bind themselves to it. We then quickly downed some potions to heal the wounds we while we all teleported into our small base hidden not too far from Rivira.

I also had the materials to make a teleportation system of sorts with the bodies of Nakime and Gyokko and the Vanishing Cabinet from Harry Potter that I planned on putting on the twenty eighth floor which was a safe zone and was literally just past where we would fight the Amphisbaena at the bottom of the waterfall floors.
