Chapter 131 - Gifting Hestia
In fact, wanting to control the Soma Familia just happened at the right time.
To put it simply, for Roy, this matter fell into the category of something he could do if the opportunity arose.
If he hadn't met Lili in this situation, Roy would not have planned anything.
At most, when they met, he would have taken the dimensional points on Lili, and at most, he would have helped her out of kindness.
However, Lili was unlucky enough to fall into his hands, which gave him a reason.
After all, Roy was not the kind of honest person who stuck to the rules.
Resources that could be used must, of course, be used rationally.
After making an appointment with Lili to go to the dungeon, Roy left the hotel.
"Alas, I missed lunch with Hestia again..."
Looking at the time, he saw that it was already past lunchtime.
Roy sighed.
However, since the time had already been lost, Roy was not in a hurry to go home.
After leaving the hotel, he wandered into a jewelry store on streets and picked out three hair ties in different colors as gifts.
"Are you a child of Hestia's Familia?"
On the road, a man walked toward him, holding a bag in his hand. He seemed to have just returned from shopping.
After seeing Roy, the man stared at him and then took the initiative to say hello.
"A god?"
Roy glanced at the long-haired man who had greeted him and immediately realized he was a god, because he appeared too outstanding.
This was one of the characteristics of the gods who had descended to the lower world; they were easy to identify.
"My name is Miach, and I'm Hestia's friend. I heard Hestia mention you before."
With a gentle smile, Miach explained how he knew Roy.
"Lord Miach."
Roy responded with a smile.
He had a certain impression of this Miach.
In the anime, it seemed he was one of Hestia's few friends.
Moreover, the Miach Familia and the Hestia Familia, which had just started, were like brothers and sisters in hardship; both belonged to poor Familias with little money.
"By the way, this is for you."
As Miach spoke, he skillfully took out a vial and tried to hand it to Roy, but when he extended his hand halfway, he paused in mid-air, looking a little embarrassed.
"Is this a low-tier potion?"
This Miach was quite generous; as soon as he made a move, it was worth close to thousands of valis.
"I wanted to give you a meeting gift."
Miach smiled wryly and said, "I just heard Hestia say that you are very capable. It seems that giving a low-tier potion is a bit shabby."
Hestia often showed off Roy in front of him, especially the villa, which made them a little envious.
"A gift from a god—I dare not refuse."
Roy respectfully took the vial from Miach's hand. He would not refuse others' kindness without reason.
"You're so polite?"
Miach's affection for Roy improved further.
Roy nodded with a smile and asked, "Lord Miach, is your Familia into pharmaceutical?"
"Correct."
Miach replied with a smile. "It's just our familia business, barely making ends meet. I hope you can take care of it in the future."
His Familia was not very big, and among its members, only one Level 2 captain was noteworthy. Business was usually bleak.
"Of course, there's no problem. Actually, I just arrived in Orario, and I don't have a stable channel to buy potions."
Roy readily agreed. "It would be great to have a reliable source."
"Then thank you very much."
Miach smiled, then took his leave and departed.
'It cost me another 300,000, and this time the dimensional points are really worthless.'
The dimensional points he had just earned from Lili were spent again in the blink of an eye.
When Miach was in heaven, he was a god in charge of medicine.
Roy naturally did not forget to replicate the relevant knowledge about potion-making from Miach.
In fact, even if he hadn't met Miach by chance, Roy would have found an opportunity to get the method of making potions from other places.
Elixirs and various recovery potions were still very popular even in other worlds.
Roy had no reason to miss out.
After parting with Miach, Roy returned home.
"Roy, didn't you say you went to the dungeon to test the sword? Why did you come back so early?"
When she was alone at home, Hestia liked to hold a book and read in the yard. When she saw Roy's return, she was pleasantly surprised.
"It's just a testing of the sword."
Roy said with a smile.
"How was it? Was it easy to use?"
Hestia asked with anticipation and complacency.
"Well, it was."
Roy nodded. "Thank you, Hestia."
"Why are you suddenly saying thank you? Aren't we a family? This is just what I should do."
Hestia blushed slightly.
"By the way, this is a gift for you."
Roy took out a hair tie from the jewelry store.
"A gift?"
Hearing this, Hestia's eyes lit up, showing even more joy.
"What is it?"
Taking it from Roy, Hestia couldn't wait to open it, revealing a happy expression. "A hair tie?"
"Yes."
Roy nodded and said, "When I passed by, I saw that this hair tie looks pretty. It should suit you very well."
"But I don't know what color you like. Besides blue, I chose two more."
"I love it so much."
Naturally, the gift Roy chose would not be bad.
