A Survivor's life in the dungeon (A Danmachi Fanfic.)

Chapter 18

*Narration.*

Heracles looked at the petite goddess as she pouts on the ground like a little girl, Hestia is one of the few gods the Heracles considered to be a friend of his, she was one of the first gods who approached him when he ascended to heaven and became a god himself.

"you gorilla!!! Why is your body so hard?!" She asked the god, as she massaged her feet, kicking Heracles was a mistake on her part as the kick hurt her more than it did him.

"Did that brain of yours melt down to your breast? Gorilla? Me? Hahaha!!! Please I'm stud."

"Stud my ass, I have a bone to pick with you." she stood up and poke the god on his chest. "What's the big idea leaving like that huh? You didn't even say goodbye to me. I thought we were friends."

"Sorry about that, it was all in the heat of the moment. Someone caught my eye here in the lower world, and you know me... Once I find something that interests me I'll just go ahead and do it."

"Yeah yeah... Buddha told me, a child, you know heaven didn't take your departure well, calling it disrespectful or so." she then smiled and looked me in the eye. "You know Thor said that he'll beat you to a pulp once he sees you since you didn't even say goodbye to him."

"Oh I look forward to it..." he said excited at the chance to fight his blood brother for the first time in a long while. "So you finally decided to descend. How long have you been here in the lower world?"

Hestia paused at the question, her eyes started to roam the hall as she spoke with her voice stuttering. "Uh-- about 2 m-months now. Yeah two months."

"Two months eh. Knowing you, you're probably freeloading at the other place, after all you're pretty much useless on your own."

"I'll have you know that I've been doing fine on my own." she said smugly as she folded her hands on her breast sending them shaking as the other adventurers in the area couldn't help but stare at them.

"Doing fine my ass." a voice suddenly joined in on their conversation, as a tall redhead beauty walked slowly towards them, she was wearing an eye patch on her right eye. "Heracles." she nodded at the god of strength as she looked at Hestia annoyingly.

"Hephaestus." Heracles nodded back. Hephaestus wasn't really a friend per say, more like an acquaintance, but he respected her nonetheless.

"H-H-Hephaestus?!" Hestia panicked, her eyes looking down, dodging the stare of the redhead she looked at her with cold eyes. "What are you doing here?"

"Hestia... You seemed to have wandered off. Last time I checked there is still a bunch of armor in my inventory that needs to be polished."

"HAHAHAHA!!!" Heracles laughed at the interaction between the two goddesses, every word that came out of Hephaestus mouth seems to make Hestia shrink smaller and smaller.

"Our deal is that you'll work for me after I take you in, imagine my surprise as I found out that you're playing hooky."

Hestia just looked defeated after that. After she boasts that she was doing fine Hephaestus of all people showed up.

"Oh and Heracles, long time no see. How have you been?" Hephaestus then turned her attention towards Heracles.

"I've been fine. Looks like you got your hands full with this one." he said as he pointed towards the tiny goddess lamenting in the corner.

"I'll manage... Seeing you here In Orario must have meant that you're officially starting your own familia, and knowing that old fox I bet he'll do everything to make your life harder here."
