Chapter 15 - Chapter 15 - Ottarl, The King Of Orario

Next morning came, we see the Hestia Familia once more waking up from their slumber, albeit with an additional member. The first one to woke up from the sleep is the titan himself, Aurelius. He opens his eyes, groggily from his sleep. He then sits up on the sofa and stretches his muscles.

"Last night was something." Aurelius said as he looked towards the three sleeping on the bed. "To think that I would actually steal someone's property by barging in and basically threatening them.....yeah, Top 5 moments of my life."

He then proceeded to stand up from his position and went to have a shower. After a while, he went out of his shower and started to get ready for dungeon diving of today. However, as he got out from the shower, he saw that the three was already up from his sleep.

"Oh?" Aurelius utters as he saw his familia members just woke up from their sleep. "It seems like you lots just woke up now isn't it?"

*YAWN* "Huh? Oh. Good morning mister" Bell said as he wipe his eyes. "Are you already done mister?"

"Yeah, ready to go now." Aurelius said. "Just waiting for you and the little girl."

After Aurelius said that, Lili woke up from her sleep.

"Gyood myorning you two~" Lili said groggily while yawning. "Sir Aurelius, are you done and ready to head towards the dungeon?"

"You're right. I was just waiting for you two to get up and ready." Aurelius said.

Lili hearing this, awkwardly said towards the titan.

"U-Um, actually, you can go first mister." Lili said as she scratches her cheeks.

"Why is that?" Aurelius ask, confuse on the sudden request.

"Well, I wanted to go solo for a bit to be honest." Lili said as she hesitatingly said towards her captain. "I really wanted to have a feel on how to defend myself without any help. Besides, I really wanted to test myself and get stronger faster."

"Is that so? Alright then. Just be careful." Aurelius said as he looked at the rabbit next. "How about you kid? Any plans that makes me go solo for today?"

"Now that you mentioned it, I do have something to do." Bell said. "Miss Eina wanted to meet up with me. She said someone wanted to meet with me."

"Someone wanted to meet with you, sir Bell?" Lili said as she then teases the rabbit. "Is it possibly a girl~."

Bells' face turns red upon hearing that sentence. "W-What?! NO! Didn't I said I don't know who this person is?!"

"Ehehe, sure~. Whatever you say, sir Bell~" Lili said teasing the the rabbit once more.

"Ugh, what with all the ruckus first thing in the morning here." A voice said as a figure raised from the bed. This person was no other than Hestia. "Oh, are you already heading to the dungeon Aurelius?"

"Yup, I'll be going alone though." Aurelius said. "These two have their own plans to do for today. So, I'm on my own."

"On your own? And here I thought that your first day as together as a team of three would be dungeon diving together." Hestia ask, a bit confused upon their sudden split.

"Bell here said he has an appointment of sorts with our guild advisor. Lili said she wanted to dungeon dive alone for at least today." Aurelius said.

"Is that so? Then just be careful three of you. Please don't do anything too reckless okay?" Hestia said, genuinely worried about the three doing their own thing.

"You can count on me, goddess Hestia!" Bell said giving a salute.

"Understood goddess." Lili said as she bowed towards her new deity.

"Don't worry. I'll be back without any scratches on my body.....like always." Aurelius said, giving a confident look towards his goddess.

"That's good to hear!" Hestia said as she then repositions herself. "Now how about we update your statuses, three of you? We didn't get to do it last night and both of you, Aurelius and Lili, might have a big increase from what I heard you've gone through."

The three nodded. The two boys were the ones to do it first. Aurelius and Bell then took of their shirt.

"Okay. Bell you first." Hestia said as she prompted the rabbit.

Bell then went on top of the rabbits' back as she starts to update his status. After doing so, she then paste it on a paper.

"Bell, Why's that your magic stat here grew the most? When did you get it that high?" Hestia said as she narrows her eyes towards the rabbit.

"W-Well, I-I..." Bell said as he stuttered his words, afraid to confess his misdoings.

"....You went in the dungeon in the middle of the night didn't you?" Hestia guessed with a deadpan face.

"....Yes I did." Bell confessed.

*sigh* "Classic Bell Cranel". Hestia said as she gave the paper towards the rabbit.

Bell then looked towards the paper to see the contents of it. Lili as well joins in the inspection.

"What?! I've never seen stats like this before." Lili said as she is stunned seeing the abnormal stats of the rabbit.

"If you think my stats are crazy high, then you should've seen misters' stats before he went up to level two." Bell said.

"Is it as high as yours sir Bell?" Lili ask curious towards the status of her captain before he levels up.

"Yeah, much higher." Bell answered.

"I'll show it to you Lili when we have the time." Hestia said as she then waves the titan to come towards the bed. "speaking of the devil, It's your turn Aurelius."

Aurelius then went towards the bed as the two members got off the bed. Aurelius then lay on the bed as Hestia got on top of his back. She then did the same as Bell and paste the contents on a piece of paper.

"Well, I'm not surprised really with how your skill is boosting your gains." Hestia said as she gave towards her giant child.

"Heh, Tell me about it." Aurelius said as he took the from his goddess.

He then looked towards the contents with Lili and Bell joining in as well.

"...." Lili after seeing the absurd status of her captain, was utterly speechless. "Yeah, I need to get used to this."

"You will Lili. It's a matter of time." Bell said, having already being numb towards the absurdness of his captain.

Hestia then looked towards the prum as she signals for her to come towards the bed. "It's your turn now my newest child! Oh and can you two turn around while she undress? And no peaking!"

"Like I would. No offense little girl." Aurelius said.

Bell and Aurelius then turns the other way. Lili then went towards the bed and took of her top wear while on it. Shen then lay on the bed as Hestia got on top of her back. Hestia then did the usual and paste everything onto a piece of paper.

"Incredible! Your stats increased significantly! Great job!" Hestia said, utter shock encompass on her face.

"Really now?!" Lili said, excited by the revelation.

"Yeah! Take a look! You even got a new skill and magic as well!" Hestia said as she points at her clothes. "Oh before that, put on some clothes first."

After Lili putting on her clothes, Hestia then went ahead and gave Lili her status paper. Aurelius and Bell, after hearing that she is no longer naked, turned around and went towards the prum as they also wanted to see her stats.

What they saw, is truly incredible.

"Wow! Lili! You've become very strong now!" Bell said, excited to see his new college grown very strong.

"Not bad little girl! At this rate, you can catch up towards this kid here." Aurelius said as he pats the prums' head.

Lili seeing her status couldn't help but to be proud of her hard work. 'Finally....I'm finally getting stronger as I intended.'

Lili then looked towards the magic that she now possess, curious upon its functions. "What does my magic do goddess Hestia?"

"Your magic is basically an amplifier towards any item that you wield. It essentially increases the sharpness of your item wield by coating it with wind like properties. You can even coat it on your hands. The increase in damage is precisely the amount of your strength stat. Though, I think the more you level up your magic, the more it becomes versatile. You could say that every level up the magic has gone through, a new move for the magic will be added."

Hearing the explanation, the three then were surprised upon the effects it gives.

"Then, what about the skill? it sounds powerful." Aurelius ask, now curious upon the appearance of this new skill.

"Well it allows an adventurer to go past a limit point for a level in all stats, which means surpassing 999. However, it also allows the stats for strength and magic to increase easily like the lower rank stats. Although, it's not a multiplier, but it's a nice boost for the two stats mentioned." Hestia said, explaining the skill. "Another thing to note, the skill also allows an adventurer to gain much more excelia depending on their feelings towards a goal that they are trying to reach."

Aurelius was a bit taken aback by the description of the skill, knowing that this version of Lili is miles more stronger than the original.

'Well, well, well. I can already see that we are going to make many enemies in the future just by the three of us existing. I wonder how the Apollo part will go? Well if it ever happens of course, but if it did then, this familia is going to destroy them Apollo losers...might as well need to discuss with Hestia to just not throw out their members and had them join us instead.'

Aurelius then remembered about the change of familia for Lili. "Wait a second, I just remembered. We forgot about Lilis' familia change that's needed to be informed at the guild."

"Don't worry. I'll do it myself." Lili answers the titan.

"You want to?" Aurelius ask once more.

"Yup. I'll with sir Bell on the way towards the guild and afterwards, probably part ways." Lili said.

"Okay then." Aurelius said as he starts to turn around and leave for the dungeon. "I'll be going now."

"Alright mister! Be careful!" Bell said.

"Be careful sir Aurelius." Lili said.

"Make sure you come back safe Aurelius." Hestia said.

"Will do." Aurelius said as he waved goodbye towards the three.

Aurelius then head out of the building and went towards the dungeon. As he was walking, he can't help but to think about the floor that he is going to dive into.

'I wonder how the middle floors is going to look like? From what I remember, the middle floors, floor 13 through 17, are entirely made out of bedrock.' Thought Aurelius, anticipating the floors after he'll pass the 11th and 12th floors. 'Well, I'll see it for my self. I just can't wait to fight those minotaurs again.'

He then continues to walk towards the dungeon until he arrives at the Babel tower, where the dungeon resides below it. He began to descend into the dungeon onto the 1st floor.

Nothing special happened on this particular floor. He just went through, killing every monster insight, encounter rookie adventurers that was at awe with his might, and proceeded to go down to the 2nd floor. The instances happens the same from the second until he reached the 10th floor of the dungeon.

"Alright, finally at the floor. Let's move further down." Aurelius said as he began to start moving towards the 11th floor. Any monsters that was on the current floor that he's in, was taken care of easily by him with barely any difficulty. After some time doing so on the 10th floor, he then proceeded towards the 11th floor of the dungeon.

Upon arriving, he couldn't help but to notice how much more thicker the mist is. *whistles* "Didn't expect it to get this thick. I'm guessing that you'll hardly see a thing on the 12th floor."

He then continues to head towards the entrance of the 12th floor, again, slaying any monsters in sight. After arriving at the entrance, he went down.

At the 12th floor, he encounters a mist thicker from the floor before, with stronger monsters present such as the Hard Armored, silver backs and more infant dragons.

After a while, Aurelius reached the entrance that will finally allows him to enter the middle floors of the dungeon. "Nothing special coming out of the lowest upper floors. Now, we get into the juicy stuff."

Aurelius then proceeds to go down onto the 13th floor, where the middle floors began. Upon arriving, he got to see the layout of the dungeon in full view.

"Woah. So this is the middle floors. It's like a maze with so many tunnels in it." Aurelius said as he is at awe on how the bedrock somehow shine with luminescent light coming out from it. "Well, what company is going to greet me first I wonder?"

Aurelius said as he starts to walk through the 13th floor. As he was walking, the sound of bat could be heard in the distance.

"Well. It seems that bats are the ones the is going to greet my arrival. How boring." He said as a horde of bats came his way. More specifically, Bad Bats.

The bats then charges towards the titan, thinking that they have found an easy prey.

However....

"[RULERS AUTHORITY]"

They stopped, mid air while flying towards the titan, now covered in golden like aura.

"Sheesh, dealing with you on the tenth floor is already annoying enough, but you guys decided to show up here as well?" Aurelius said as he starts clenching his hands into a fist. "Just drop dead already."

The bats then got crushed by the force of the golden aura that envelops them. They all dropped to the floor as they all turned to dust, leaving only their cores for the titan to harvest.

Aurelius starts collecting the cores of the monster bats. He then went and search for the 14th floor as he went through the 13th while killing monsters such as Hard Armoreds, Crystal Mantises, Hellhounds, Almirajs, Dungeon Worms and even more Bad Bats.

He then arrives at the 14th floor where the only new monsters that he encountered are Wyverns and Lamia Mormos'. The rest is as the same as they are on the 13th floor.

Once arrived at the 15th floor, Aurelius now starts to be a little bit focused on his actions. "Alright, This is wear minotaurs starts to spawn. At least it can give me a bit of a sparring session."

Aurelius then starts to walk in the 15th floor. As he was walking, Crystal Mantises, Hellhounds and Dungeon Worms started to attack him. He made quick work of them all, without even using magic to eliminate them.

However, as he continued walking deeper into the floor, He then heard a loud noise, reminiscent of that of a cow.

*MOOOOO!!*

Aurelius then turns towards the direction of the voice. He then saw 5 minotaurs standing with a look that tells anybody that they are going to strike.

"Well, well, well. We meet again dear friends. It's been a month since that incident happen." Aurelius said as he gave them a smug smile. "Let's see what kind of challenge you five can give me now."

As Aurelius said that, the minotaurs charge at him with ferocious intent to kill.

"Alright! Come at me!" Aurelius said as he then got ready to fight the minotaurs that are rushing towards them.

Two minotaurs then landed a hit on the titan. Aurelius puts up a guard towards the blow. He then was pushed back a little by the impact that the two gave.

"Heh. Not bad. Not bad at all!" Aurelius said as another minotaur was ready to land a hit on the titan. "Teamwork? Am I that threatening to you five?"

As the minotaur was about to punch him, Aurelius then puts out his hands to grab the minotaurs' fist.

*!?*

"You've got to try harder than that if you want to put a scratch on me!" Aurelius said.

The minotaurs' fist was caught by the titan as he then crushed the fist of the minotaur.

*MOOOO!!!*

Aurelius then grabs the arm of the minotaur fully with two hands as he slams it onto the ground.

"HUP!"

*SLAM* *BOOM*

He then punch the throat of the minotaur full force, breaking it entirely. The minotaur then went limp instantly and turned to dust afterwards, leaving the core behind.

"1 down. 4 more to go." Aurelius said as he saw the minotaurs hesitate in their steps. "Now then, who's next."

The four minotaurs hearing this instinctively got mad. Then, two of them strike the titan full speed ahead.

They were once more doing a combined attack towards the titan. However this time, it turned out different.

"Not gonna work this time you cows!" Aurelius said as he then held out two of his hands towards the fist of the two minotaurs.

*GRAB*

Aurelius, upon grabbing the two fist of the minotaurs, squeezed them. A cracking noise was then heard from the two fists.

*MOOOO!!!*

The two minotaurs screamed from the pain they've got. Aurelius then lets go of the two fist in his hands. He then punch one of the minotaurs to the side as it was flung away from its position. Aurelius then proceeds to grab the throat of the minotaur left standing out of the two and starts to choke it to death.

*Mo-...oo"

The minotaur utters as the titan then squeezed his fist fully as it broke the minotaur's neck.

*CRACK*

The minotaur then went limp as it turns to dust. What drops from it is its core and its horn.

"Oh! An item drop!" Aurelius said, happy from the drop the minotaur gave. "This should sell for a bit of money."

Aurelius then looked towards the two in front of him, staring them down as a golden aura surrounds the titan, showing the two the superiority that he possessed.

"3 more to go." Aurelius said as he smiles maniacally towards the two.

The two minotaurs seeing this couldn't help but feel hopeless. They then turned around, in an attempt to escape from their predator.

To no avail.

"[RULERS AUTHORITY]"

Aurelius said as he held out his hands. The two minotaurs were then held in place as a golden aura like force envelops them.

"Now, now. Where do you think you two are going?" Aurelius said. "It's cowardice you know for a warrior to run away from a battle, unless if you both have a plan.....but I know your brains are not as bright as it seems because it's none existent."

Aurelius then squeezes his hands as the two minotaurs then started to get squashed. He then fully clenches his hands as the two was fully, unrecognizably squashed. They then turned to dust afterwards.

"4 down, 1 more to go." Aurelius said.

He then starts to look around for the last minotaur. However, it was nowhere to be found.

"Huh? where did that cow ran off to?" Aurelius said, looking around for the last minotaur.

However, a loud scream of a cow was heard along side a sequence of aggressive stomping.

*MOOOO!!!*

Aurelius then looked behind as the minotaur he punched away earlier is coming full speed, giving a headbutt attack towards the titan.

Aurelius however, instead of blocking, stood still. He intends to take the full scale of the minotaurs attacks'.

The minotaur then stabs the titan in front of him. It then smiled, thinking that the target is killed.

However....

"Heh, sneaking up on me like that? You beasts are cowards after all if the odds are not with you." Aurelius said as he is seen to have the minotaurs horns stabbed in his abdomen. Though, it on went in by the a tip of the horn.

*!?*

Aurelius then grabbed the grab the horn and then starts to push the horn outwards from his abdomen, pushing the entirety of the bull itself.

*MOOOO!!*

The minotaur screams as it is trying to fight back the titans might. However, it is proven useless as the titan was not moving an inch from its place.

Aurelius then use all his might to snap its horns as the minotaur wails by the sudden pressure and pain that it receives from the titan. The titan then successfully snaped it.

*MOOOO!!!*

The minotaur screams in pain as it then looked towards the menacing, looming titan in front of it.

"I don't take cowards for opponents to face me." Aurelius said as he looked down, shadow silhouette covers him with his eyes glowing gold. "Now, you'll meet your end as I intended it to be."

Aurelius then kicked the bull to the ground. As it lay there, the titan then stomp the bulls' head. He proceeds to press it down hard until the minotaurs' head was crushed. The bull then was turned to dust and left its core as a reward upon his victory.

*pheewww* "Hah! that was great! To take on five minotaurs at once, head on without running away will always be a memory I'll cherish!"

While Aurelius was being excited upon his dominating victory towards the five minotaurs, he heard a sound coming from beside his direction. He then looked towards the side as he saw more mobs was ready to attack. that includes some minotaurs as well.

"Heh, more sacrifices for me? How generous of the dungeon to do so~" Aurelius said as he then walk towards the the horde of monsters.

After a while of massacring the monsters, he then stumbled upon a safe zone to take a rest a while.

"Haaahhh. That was one hell of a workout! It's worth it to go down this far in." Aurelius said as he then starts to get up from his rest. "Well it's time to go home. I bet it's already pretty late."

He then went outside from the safe zone. "No monsters to meet me? They've must've been pretty terrified then."

Aurelius then starts to walk towards the exit of the 15th floor. Suddenly he heard a clash of swords in a nearby tunnel.

*CLANG*

*MOOO!!!*

Aurelius, hearing the shouting of a bull, gained interest on what was happening in the tunnel nearby.

"It doesn't hurt to look at what's going on now is it?" Aurelius then heads towards the tunnel that causes all the ruckus.

When he arrives, he saw a demi-human and a minotaur facing of against each other.

Well, more like the minotaur was being treated like a child.

'Huh? I recognized who that person is.' Aurelius said as he inspect the figure of the demi-human.

A tall man, presumably just above shoulder height, with brown hair and a pair of what seems to be bear ears, tan skin with a black tank top as well as grey pants. He also has on him a red pectoral like armor and a red headband.

'Yeah, there's no mistaking it.' Aurelius thought as he smirk upon seeing the man fighting the bull. 'It's the king of Orario himself, Ottarl.'

The demi-human, now known as Ottarl, clashes his sword with the minotaur. His sword then breaks in half from the clash that he did. He then looked towards the sword a back towards the minotaur.

"It's done." Ottarl said as he kept looking at the minotaur.

*MOOOO!!!*

The minotaur screams as it then swung down its borrowed sword towards the boar in front of it. Ottarl then was ready to intercept the sword with its hands. However....

"[RULERS AUTHORITY]"

The minotaur was then stopped in its tracks as a golden aura was then enveloped its being.

"?!" Ottarl seeing this alerted himself.

"To think I would see myself, the king of Orario, here on the fifteenth floor." Aurelius spoke, gaining the attention of the boar.

Ottarl then turns around towards the titan, as he sees that he is walking towards him.

"Aurelius. The captain of the Hestia Familia." Ottarl said.

"In the flesh. Didn't think that you would see me here now are you?" Aurelius said.

As the two were talking to each other, the minotaur was then struggling to free himself, moving a little within the restraints of the titans magic.

"Oh my! That's one strong minotaur you've trained huh?" Aurelius said as he looked towards the titan, now arrived beside him.

"..." Ottarl was silent, observing the titan beside him. "Do you know what the goddess is planning, titan?"

"Titan? Is that what people called me? Well I'm flattered." Aurelius said. "And for your question, sort of? Although I can take a guess."

Ottarl continued to observe him, warry of any moves that the titan makes.

"It's about your goddess' fixation towards me and my other familia members now isn't?" Aurelius said as the boar widened his eyes.

".....so you knew." Ottarl said as he was now fully warry of the boar. "What are you going to do about it, titan?"

Aurelius then smiled at the boar as he said, "Nothing. Nothing at all."

"Nothing?" Ottarl ask, confused by the titans' answer.

"Yeah, nothing. Want to know why?" Aurelius said.

After the question that he posed, he rushes towards the minotaur that he held in place. He then went beside it and karate chopped the bull. It was then knocked out onto the ground, not dead, but unconscious.

"It's because these guys wont give me a challenge that I want." Aurelius said, proving a point towards the boar.

"..." Ottarl, silent by the move the titan made, stared at him.

Aurelius then went towards the boar. He then grabbed his shoulder and said, "Don't include me this time around. Say to your goddess "maybe next time"." 

Aurelius then walks off towards the tunnel where he once came in, and possibly leaving for the surface.

However, he then spoke towards the boar.

"Oh and, make sure you add another one of those overdosed bull. There's one more member in my familia that is in need of a stat boost." Aurelius said as he then disappears into the tunnel.

"..."

Ottarl looking in the direction of the once titan in his presence, couldn't help but smile a bit.

"Interesting..."

________________________

After Aurelius reached the surface, he then went home. It was already late evening, so he only needed to head back home after he trades in his loot from the dungeon.

As he was walking, he couldn't help but thought about what transpires in the dungeon today.

'The middle floors are I guess okay for my current power.' Aurelius thought. 'Although, seeing Ottarl there, getting ready for that sex-craved goddess' entertainment, is very lucky of me. Got to talk with the strongest of this generation in Orario.'

Aurelius then let loose with his thinking while he was happily walking towards his familia.

As he finally reaches home, He went inside a building where he was greeted by his familia.

"Oh? Hello there Aurelius! We were wondering why you're not back yet." Hestia said as she was reliefed upon the captain of her familia.

"Well, I was diving in the middle floors today." Aurelius said as he went ahead and goes to the sofa to sit down. "Some pretty nice monsters that decided to barrage me though! It was on heck of a workout."

"Eh?! Middle floors?" Bell ask, surprised upon the titans' adventures. "How far down in the middle floors that you went in mister?"

"Until the 15th floor." Aurelius answered.

"What?! Isn't that supposed to be the floor where minotaurs would spawn, sir Aurelius?" Lili ask, stunned by the boldness of her captain.

"Yup, it was a blast fighting them!" Aurelius said, smiling wide upon the reminiscent of the experience. "First time I got to the fifteenth floor and five minotaurs were there to kill me."

"Five?!" Hestia said as she then rushed towards her giant child to check for any injuries.

"Relax goddess I'm fine." Aurelius said. "Well, I do have a small stab wound on my abdomen."

"HUH?!" Hestia said, panicked towards the giant. "Where?! LET ME LOOK!!"

"Calm down goddess! Sheesh." Aurelius said as he lift up his shirt. "Not that big. It resulted from a minotaur stabbing it with its horn. Though, it just went it by the tip. doesn't hurt really."

Hestia hearing that, almost passes out. "Haaaahhh, what am I going to do with my giant child here. Always making me feel anxious 24/7."

"HAHAHA! No need to be dramatic goddess! You can count on me to have myself put in more danger!" Aurelius said with a thumbs up.

"THAT'S NOT WHAT I WANT TO HEAR YOU IDIOT!" Hestia shouts, fuming by the show of idiocracy. she then pouts as she says, "Hmph, stupid child...."

"Well now my adventures of today have been told, what about you two?" Aurelius ask for their activities they did for today.

"I've been staying at the ninth floor none stop until evening." Lili was the first to say. "I've been killing Killer Ants and Needle Rabbits all day long down there."

"Oh? Ninth floor huh?" Aurelius ask, a bit surprised by the prums' achievement. "That pretty good little girl."

"Thank you sir Aurelius!" Lili said bowing down towards the titan. "I'll continue to do so until I'm ready to go down further. alone."

"That's nice to hear!" Aurelius said as he then turn towards the rabbit. "How about you bell?"

"I was training with the Sword Princess for the entire day." Bell confessed.

"Sword Princess? From the Loki Familia?" Aurelius said. "So, how strong is she?"

"Very strong! In fact, she's very fast!" Bell said, telling about the prowess of the swordswoman.

"Well that's to be expected of her." Aurelius said, not surprised by that fact. "What did you learn from her kid?"

"Many tings actually! Although not really techniques but just improvement on my instinct and movements." Bell said. "Also, she's kind of an airhead."

Aurelius hearing that, couldn't help but laugh. "HAHAHAHA! There's no one brave enough to call that except you brat! HAHAHAHA!"

Aurelius then laughed a bit more before he calms down. He then proceeds to ask about their progress.

"So, have you two updated your status?" Aurelius asked.

"Yup, already done mister."

"Yeah!"

Both Bell and Lili said in unison.

"Their stats increased quite a bit Aurelius. Especially Lili's stats!" Hestia said.

"Oh? Then can I see it?" Aurelius said, curious upon the words of his goddess.

"Sure! wait a second. I'll go get the papers."

Hestia then go towards the drawers that she kept the paper updates.

She took two, Lili's and Bell's status paper, and gave towards her giant child.

"Here you go!" Hestia said.

Aurelius then looked at the contents of both of their papers.

"Amazing!" Aurelius said as he then looked towards the two. "Seems like I don't need to baby sit you two anymore now isn't? HAHAHA!" Aurelius said as the two gave glaring eyes towards the titan.

They then talked some more and went to bed.
