Chapter 349: The Hestia Familia!
Chapter 349: The Hestia Familia!
The enchanting melody was a revelation to their ears, a unique sound that cast a spell on them. It was as if a gentle spring breeze had swept over them, carrying with it a shower of delicate cherry blossoms.
Yet, as they fell into a daze, the two figures stepped forward under the spotlight, walking down the stairs under the eyes of many.
Hestia and Isao.
While Isao was dressed in his black suit, Hestia was dressed in the best dress, making her appear lovely and cute, yet no one would think that she was a little girl as she appeared so womanly.
At that moment, Hestia's vanity was clearly satisfied!
At the same time, she also couldn't help but move, thinking that the past and the present were so much different. In the past, she could only stay at her temple, lazying around like a bug. The contrast was stark, and it filled her with a sense of nostalgia.
Now, she is no longer that lazy Hestia but the leader of the strongest Familia in the Orario.
Still, she had to say that it was a little troublesome, and she was glad that Isao was also quite lazy and didn't take much responsibility, even if he became the governor of this city.
However, even if they were lazy, Hestia and Isao knew that they had to protect everything that they gained, and they wouldn't let anyone destroy it. While trouble might be coming, and many might even wish to kill them, as long as they were together, they would be fine. Their determination to protect what they have was unwavering, filling them with a sense of resolve and commitment.
This was why Hestia was confident in herself and never thought that Isao would leave her. Other women might have slept and even had children, but even so, she and Isao had a far deeper connection than only the two could understand. This connection wasn't something anyone in this place could understand, as she was the goddess he had chosen.
Watching the two, many were jealous, not of Isao but of Hestia. Everyone still remembered that in the past, this goddess could only sleep in the abandoned church, living on the charity of others and working in a small food stall. When there was a party, she would bring a box to bring the food home, making many laugh at her poverty, yet now?
All of them could only look up at her, and they were beneath her, succumbing to become Hestia's obedient followers.
Or rather, they might not be able to become followers; a dog was also nice.
Wagging their tails obediently, they waited for their master to give them a bone.

Still, among all the dogs, there was no doubt the Takemikazuchi Familia was the most proud since their Familia had become Isao's dog from the beginning. Naturally, as they were Isao's dogs, they got many privileges, and because of that, they knew that they had to repay him. Moreover, there was also samurai culture in the Far East, their origin place, which made them extremely loyal to their master, and they could even throw their lives for him.
Well, Isao was still cautious about handling them.
Only one of the members of the Takemikazuchi Familia had a shy and longing expression on her face before touching her glossy and soft lips in nostalgia.
"What's wrong, Chigusa?" Mikoto Yamato asked with a doubt. Frankly, the first time their Familia tried to bring danger to Hestia Familia, she thought of joining Hestia Familia to make them forgive her Familia, but unfortunately, Isao thought of her as too weak, which made her sad.
"Ah, n-nothing." Chigusa Hitachi shook her head softly since it was impossible for her to tell what she had given to Isao to make him forgive her Familia.
"Hmm?"
Mikoto only tilted her head and decided not to think too much since Chigusa was as healthy as ever. At the same time, she also felt a bit anxious since she knew that Chigusa had become stronger.
In the Takemikazuchi Familia, while it was quite strange, Mikoto was the strongest, and the second strongest would be the guy, but Isao was too lazy to remember the name.
On the other hand, Chigusa's strength was only in the middle, but there was no doubt she was reliable. Then, somehow, her strength became even stronger, especially in terms of archery, and her overall strength even exceeded Mikoto's.
What was the secret of Chigusa's strength?
Mikoto was curious.
"What's wrong, Mikoto-chan?" Chigusa felt shy when Mikoto kept staring at her.
"N-Nothing!"
While Mikoto wasn't sure, she felt like Chigusa was a bit lewd for some reason.
At the same time, every member of the Hestia Familia looked at Isao at the same time since he was the man who had changed their fates. If he didn't help them and bring them together, they knew that they would fall and their future would be miserable.
Whether it was Cassandra or Daphne, they had a feeling that they would have a miserable future if Isao didn't bring them. While they weren't sure, they had a feeling that they would end up in poverty due to a stupid deity they would follow like before.
It was the same case as Filvis since she knew if Isao didn't help her, then she wouldn't be able to stand on the bright sky and probably would die during the previous battle. Their meeting might have been good, especially when she was still under the control of Dionysus, but now, it was different.
Filvis decided to follow him no matter what since this life of hers had a meaning due to him.
Nevertheless, when all the members of Hestia appeared under Isao's leadership, everyone could only stand still, feeling awe, especially when all of them were dressed in the white uniform prepared by Isao.
Their appearance was dignified and majestic, bringing awe to anyone.
Their numbers might be limited, but all of them brought oppression to anyone.
Some were in awe, some were excited, some were happy, some felt a longing, some were a sadness, some were jealous, and some were angry.
Yet, no matter what they felt, at this moment, at this place, all of them could only bow down before the Hestia Familia.
The strongest Familia in the Orario!
Then, along with the members of Hestia Familia, many Familias who were affiliated and had close contact with them started to stand up one after another behind them, showing the might of their groups.
Those who stood so close meant they had become a family with Hestia Familia, but those who were far away meant that they were the dogs of the Hestia Familia.
Yet, being the dog of Hestia Familia was far better than being someone who had nothing to do with this Familia.
Watching Freya, who stood quite close to Hestia and Isao, Ishtar felt an intense hatred and also jealousy, yet compared to all of that, she couldn't help but look at Hestia enviously, wondering why this goddess got everything...!
What was so different between them?!
Wasn't she much more beautiful than Hestia?
If it was a matter of giving pleasure, then wasn't she much better?!
More importantly, watching how Ishtar could only stand on the opposite, she felt a strange sense of dread, but she calmed herself, thinking that she would slowly climb up and get herself into Isao's hands and take control over this world!
Yet, what Ishtar didn't like, like she, who plotted to take down Hestia Familia, some people had started to aim their daggers toward her.
