Reversing fate from the signing of the contract

"Hestia? Are you really not kidding? Your family has really acquired the 'forging' skill?"

Hephaestus' rationality told him that the probability was very small, but looking at Hestina who was proudly puffing out her chest, her rationality told her that her friend was not the kind who would take such a Things joking people.

Does it mean that Blue Star really got the 'forging' skill?

It is not that Hephaestus has never seen a more talented blacksmith than Lan Xing. A large part of her family members are dwarves, and most of the dwarves were hers even before the gods came from the heaven to the human world. Believers, this family has always been under her care, although the number is rare, there are also some young children who awaken the "forging" skills at birth.

What really surprised her was that according to her understanding, Lan Xing only learned some basic skills in the blacksmith shop. According to her family, Lan Xing was serious and polite. That's all, according to their evaluation, it is probably "a good young man, but he needs some training to become a qualified blacksmith".

It can be said that Lan Xing will not be surprised when she comprehends 'forging' in her later studies, but she is surprised by comprehending 'forging' without warning like now.

Naturally, Hephaestos would not feel that her friend was lying to her, so the only explanation was that the other party was joking.

But at this time, looking at the other party with a confident expression on his chest... no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a joke.

Seeing Lan Xing who followed Hestia helplessly, Hephaestus couldn't help but look at Lan Xing more.

If it was just because of Lan Xing's character that she felt that the other party was a good person, now Hephaestus has begun to think that Lan Xing may be even better than she imagined.

But at this moment, Hephaestus said something that no one thought of.

"Blue Star, are you interested in joining my family?"

Both Hestia and Blue Star were a little surprised by Hephaestus' words, but Blue Star's reaction was also somewhat beyond Hephaestus' expectations.

"Sorry, Goddess Hephaestus, I never planned to leave the 'Hestia Familia'."

Blue Star rejected Hephaestus' offer without the slightest hesitation, and Hestia couldn't help showing a bright smile after hearing what Blue Star said.

"Hephaestus, even if you make such a joke with me, I will be angry~"

Although she said she was angry, Hestia's smile was so bright that people couldn't understand her current mood, while Hephaestos showed a helpless smile.

"Sorry~Sorry~~As an apology, I will not charge the rent of the forge today."

This time it was Hestia's turn to be a little surprised.

"Hephaestus, how do you know that we plan to rent the forge?"

"It's very simple. You brought Blue Star to the 'Hephaestus Smithy' specially to show off to me during this period of time, right? What's more, I also understand the thoughts of most people after acquiring the 'forging' skill." , Lan Xing must have itchy hands, right?"

Hephaestus's expression was extremely confident, after all, she had seen too many such people.

While talking about Hephaestus, she beckoned her family to take Lan Xing to the private small forge, while she took Hestia to her bedroom.

"Would you like a drink?"

Back in her bedroom, Hephaestus took a bottle of red wine from the wine cabinet and handed it to Hestia.

If ordinary people saw this scene, they might not be able to help but call the police. After all, who would give LOLI a drink?

But the problem is that Hestia is not the real LOLI at all. As a goddess who has lived for an unknown amount of time, she naturally drinks too.

"Give me a drink... But, Hephaestus, why did you say that just now?"

Hestia didn't refuse the wine glass offered by her friend, but at the same time, she couldn't help asking the question she was most confused about.

Just as the other party understands herself, Hestia also understands the other party. She knows that although Hephaestus likes to accept people who are good at forging as her family members, she does not have a collection habit, and even many other family members also have People learn blacksmithing in her shop.

What's more, in her opinion, although Lan Xing's talent is extremely rare among human beings, there are many dwarves who are stronger than him. Based on her understanding of Hephaestus, it is impossible for the other party to steal people for this, let alone Steal someone from your own hands.

That's why she decided from the very beginning that Hephaestus was 'joking'.

But even so, she still felt a little strange about what the other party said, so she couldn't help but took the opportunity to ask.

"For what? Probably because you are worried about Hestia?"

"worry about me?"

Hestia took a sip from the wine glass and looked at Hephaestus in confusion, as if she didn't understand the other party's words, while Hestia sat opposite Hestia with the wine glass Then he opened his mouth slowly.

"That's right, like you, Hestia, I have met many 'gods' who have a good relationship with your family members. Although most of them have a good relationship, there are also some who left the original family members and chose a new one. A suitable family... I am worried that if one day Blue Star leaves your family, what will happen to you? So I want to take this opportunity to test the other party..."

Hearing her friend's words, Hestia, who was holding a wine glass with a hint of red on her face, couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

She originally thought that the other party was just joking with herself, but she didn't expect the other party to think so much, but then she showed a gentle expression.

"Don't worry about me~ Hephaestus, I believe in Blue Star, he once swore to me when he became my family member that he would always be by my side as my sword and shield..."

Speaking of which, Hestia couldn't help rubbing her left index finger with her right hand, which was the place where Lan Xing had kissed when she swore to her last time.

Seeing Hestia's happy expression, Hephaestus couldn't help showing nostalgic expression.

Wasn't it the same when I met my family for the first time?

It is precisely because of this that they abandon their identities in the heavenly realm and seal their divine power to come to the human realm.

"The encounter between people...it's really wonderful..."

Hephaestus leaned on the sofa and sighed.

Chapter 30 Gifts

At the same time, Blue Star on the other side came to a small forge under the leadership of Hephaestos' family.

Different from the forge that Lan Xing used to learn, this place is specially leased to those blacksmiths who have to borrow the forge for some reason. At the same time, because the rental price is not cheap, the frequency of use is not high.

Of course the stuff here is definitely worth the price paid.

Touching the forging hammer provided in the forging workshop, Blue Star also took out the things he was going to forge.

First of all, he doesn't plan to use too rare materials, such as the 'orangutan ore', he intends to use the 'source stone' collected before to strengthen his existing equipment for a round.

In fact, the dual knives used by Blue Star have considered the factor of 'upgrade' and left a lot of places on the knives that can be used for strengthening.

"The first step is to refine the ore..."

According to Blue Star's original communication with the group of "active mining groups", the "origin mine" is actually dangerous, but I don't know if it's because of being in a different world. After the original world, the effect of the ore has been weakened a lot, but at the same time, the danger has also been weakened.

It has become a mere ore.

In addition, Blue Star is also planning to use the materials of 'high-explosive source stone worms' and 'common source stone worms' to strengthen the dual knives.

From Blue Star's point of view, these two kinds of origin stone worms are special creatures that emerged from the infection of origin stones, and their materials should have a good compatibility with origin stones.

While using the 'forging' skill to bless, Blue Star carefully handled the materials, trying to integrate the effects of various materials together.

After nearly 2 hours of hard work, Blue Star finally completed his first work.

"Origin Stone Double Swords

Category: Weapons

Grade: D

Effect: ① When attacking, it will inject a special solution into the target, and it can detonate when it accumulates to a certain amount

②The lethality of weapons can be increased by consuming origin stones”

Strictly speaking, the first weapon that Lan Xing made was a bit crude, just a simple accumulation of materials, but he himself was quite satisfied, after all, everything is difficult at the beginning.

But when he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something and grabbed the hammer and started fighting by the fire again...

When Lan Xing came out of the forge, the sky had turned pitch black. Except for some of the blacksmiths who were rushing to work, most of the people in the blacksmith shop had already gone home, and Lan Xing was also staying with or watching the shop. Got Hestia's whereabouts.

After he went to the forge, it was convenient for him to go to Hephaestus' bedroom with Hephaestus, and also left him a message, asking him to go to him directly after finishing his work.

"Bang~bang~"

"Master Hestia..."

'Da~da~da~'

Not long after Lan Xing knocked on the door, he heard a burst of footsteps, and then he saw the door in front of him being pulled open in an extremely heroic manner.

But before he could speak, a burst of alcohol came to his face.

"Hey~ Blue Star, are you here?"

Accompanied by the strong smell of alcohol, the drunk Hestia opened his arms towards Lan Xing with a silly smile on his face, and Lan Xing put his hands against the opponent's head helplessly. .

"Blue Star~Blue Star~"

Looking at Hestia who was waving his arms as if swimming, Lan Xing was full of desire to complain, but after all, he forcibly held back in front of 'outsiders'. 'Is there always an obsession with obsession?

Compared to Hestia who was completely drunk, Hephaestus, whose cheeks were reddish on the other side, looked curiously at the scabbard on Lan Xing's waist.

"Can you show me your work?"

"Of course, I'm sorry to trouble you, Goddess Hephaestus."

While continuing to press Hestia's head with one hand, Lan Xing drew out the dagger from his waist and handed it to Hephaestus.

Seeing Lan Xing's dagger, Hephaestus couldn't help raising his eyebrows.

At this moment, Hephaestus can only say...not unexpected, right?

She can only use the word 'rough' to evaluate the weapon Lan Xing handed over.

But this is more in line with Blue Star's rookie status.

But how did such a rookie acquire the 'forging' skill?

At the same time, Blue Star on the other side also tried to make the drunk Hestia less clingy to himself, so he had to take out the gift he had prepared in advance.

"Master Hestia, this is a gift for you."

While speaking, Lan Xing took out a badge with his free hand and handed it to Hestia.

Unsurprisingly, the drunk Hestia was similar to a child. After Blue Star took out the 'gift', her attention quickly shifted to the gift.

A somewhat abstract dragon head is engraved on the silver-gray badge.

That's right, it's the pattern of 'Hunting Soul' behind Lanxing.

Hestia was very interested in the hunting spirit behind Blue Star when Hestia helped Blue Star 'update the status' before, but it's a pity that she is not allowed to use divine power in the human world. She researched this several times but found nothing. The avatar is interesting.

After making the badge, Lan Xing always felt that it was unattractive to be naked, so he simply engraved his hunting spirit on it.

Compared with the rough double swords whose attributes are not bad because of the material, the attributes of this emblem made of leftover materials are very simple. Because it uses the material of 'high-energy stone worms', it comes with a little weak Flame resistance is probably the level of wearing a hot spring to soak in the hot spring for a while?

But compared to the 'modified' double knives, this badge is the first piece of equipment that Blue Star has produced from scratch in the true sense.

Blue Star gave it to Hestia to thank him for his help.

Whether it's the trust in himself, or providing himself with a lot of information about this world, or helping himself to know Hephaestus, he found a shortcut to the 'forging' skill...

But it was obvious that for the drunk Hestia, she couldn't think of so many things. At this time, she just held the badge that Lan Xing handed to her with a smirk on her face.

But this is good news for Blue Star, at least the other party will no longer want to pounce on him.

"Master Hephaestus, is Lady Hestia staying with you tonight?"

Hephaestus, who had already checked Blue Star's dagger, had been silently watching the interaction between the two for a while, and couldn't help but smile when she heard Blue Star's question.

"If it was in the past, Hestia would probably stay here with me, right? But now that she has a family member, she probably doesn't want to sleep with me anymore, right? So I still need to trouble you, Blue Star."

There is nothing wrong with staying overnight, but Hephaestus, who is a good friend of Hestia, knows that the other party should want to be with her family members more than staying with her, right?

And Blue Star didn't say much after hearing what Hephaestos said, but thanked the other party again, then picked up Hestia and prepared to leave.

I just don’t know if it’s because the height gap between the two sides is too big, and it’s supposed to be full of charming princess hugs, but Lan Xing forcefully brought out the feeling of carrying the child home.

This made Hephaestus, the only witness, dumbfounded.

But looking at the badge held by Hestia, she finally smiled.

"Isn't it a good job..."

Chapter 31 Shortened Distance

In the slightly dim hut, Hestia, who was dry-mouthed due to drunkenness, sat up straight on the edge of the bed with great difficulty.

"woooooooo~~"

Although she is a god, as the price of coming to the world, she has the same self-sealed power as other gods, which allows her to experience life in the world better, but as the price, there will be some human troubles, such as drunkenness.

"water……"

Whimpering softly, she tried to get up and look for the kettle, but at this moment, a somewhat low voice suddenly sounded in the house.

"Master Hestia, the water you want."

Following this extremely abrupt voice, Hestia's eyes were drawn unconsciously, and then she froze there.
