Dishes that don’t shine are not good dishes

A Forged Genius (Part 1)

It was around eleven o’clock in the evening when we returned to the abandoned church as our residence.

“Master Shangshen, I’m back.”

Pushing the door open as usual, Bell, who was standing at the entrance, shouted to the inside.

“Welcome~Welcome~Back~Come~”

The main god of Bell’s family, the kitchen god in Greek mythology, and Hestia, who is also the goddess of [harmony] (laughs), jumped out from one side, and was held by blue ribbons so that her majestic plumpness was tight Stick it on the back of the girl’s hand.

“a ha ha ha……”

Regarding the intimacy of his own god, even though more than two weeks had passed, Bell still couldn’t feel used to it.

He just scratched his cheek and smiled awkwardly.

He didn’t know if the relationship between the two was normal. After all, with ‘OuUnlike the well-known big families in Lali’, the Hestia family, so far, has only one member besides the main god, Bell.

Because I just became an adventurer, the level of ‘God’s Grace’ is only a mere lv1, and the attributes are also very poor, so I am a very standard novice.

That’s right, a novice…

Bell, who was pulled by Hestia to walk into the room, remembered the experience of the dungeon, his face became stiff for a moment, and even his footsteps couldn’t help but pause.

Fortunately, his reaction was very quick, and he recovered in the next second. He was not noticed by his own master god—in fact, it doesn’t matter even if he was discovered. After all, what the woman who saved him said was indeed true.

——Bell Cluny, a newcomer adventurer.

Shaking his head, he shook off the distracting thoughts in his heart. After entering the small room on the second floor, Bell raised the corners of his mouth and looked at Hestia with a gentle smile on his face.

“Master Shangshen, I’m very lucky today. I picked up a lot of magic stones that no one wanted. Converted into coins, it’s enough for Lord Shangshen and me to spend a week normally!”

“As expected of Bell! It’s amazing!” Hestia squinted her eyes and smiled energetically.

This is not a normal adventurer’s dungeon strategy, but it is an indispensable accumulation process for Hestia and her family who have just completed their establishment and even the residence is temporarily provided by friends.

Because she had no connections, let alone savings, Bell, who had just arrived at ‘Olalie’, ran into obstacles everywhere, and couldn’t find any family members who were willing to take her in. In desperation, the one who finally extended a helping hand to her was Hestia, who had just descended to earth and was in a situation very similar to Bell’s.

The goddess bestowed the girl with “God’s Grace”, and the girl became the goddess’ “family”.

The two of them worked together to build their own ‘Family’.

The dignified goddess went to work on the street and sold croquettes for a living, and the shop that sold croquettes was not hers.

Not to mention Bell, who raided the dungeon from dawn to dusk every day, constantly spawning the first monsters between the first and second floors where only rookies would stay for a long time.

The number of magic stones that can be obtained every day is limited, so it is barely guaranteed that you will not starve to death, but if you want to go further, such as saving enough money to exchange for sharp weapons or strong armor, you don’t know how long it will take.

This is the normal state of the vast majority of novice adventurers from small and medium families in “Olalie”. Before discussing whether they have the potential to improve, what they or they need to do is to support themselves.

That is to say, those lucky ones who joined the big family from the beginning and are valued by the main god can skip the accumulation process, not only can get the weapons replaced by the seniors in the family, but also ask for advice and learn when the other party is free. Various basic fighting skills.

Bell’s talent and potential are actually not that good, otherwise, he would have successfully joined the families of other main gods long ago, instead of being picked up by Hestia and needing to make a living every day.

However, after all, he is not Xie Yunfei who could not detect any potential at the beginning. What’s more, the possibility of human beings cannot be fully controlled by even the gods.

Just like the moment…

Bell, who took off his shirt and revealed smooth and fair skin, lay on the head of the bed, waiting for the goddess to update his status.

Every night when they return to the church, Hestia and Bell will be so “frank and honest”.

However, considering that the two of them are both girls, there was not much charming atmosphere.

“Master Shangshen, are you still alright?”

Bell asked softly. This season’s ‘Olalie’ is still a bit cold at night. The girl herself is not a high-level adventurer. Although she won’t catch a cold when the wind blows, she can’t completely resist the cold current around her.

“…Wait a little longer.”

When answering, Hestia subconsciously hesitated for a moment.

She lied.

Renewing the “God’s Grace” status of the family members is not complicated in itself, and the mechanism is directly recorded in the books by the guild-through the sacred components in the blood of the gods, it resonates with the body of the person being renewed, and then transforms Write text to visualize the status of the adventurer.

The whole process only takes a few seconds if the hands are fast, and even if it is slow, it only takes half a minute at most.

But Hestia… was straddling Bell’s back for two minutes at this time.

It’s not that the update steps were mistaken by her who was a little confused, but… there are some unexpected things in Bell’s “God’s Grace”.

Skipping those basic attributes that don’t have an i-level, Bell’s magic column is still empty, which is normal. The girl is just an ordinary human being, and it is even more impossible to obtain a magic book because of financial concerns.

On the contrary, the skill bar was still blank when the status was updated last night. At this time, two lines of text that only gods and a small number of scholars can understand quietly emerged.

[Chasing and repaying a wish: 1. Chasing, precocious, 2. Maintaining the effect with the heart of gratitude at the same time, 3. The firmer the heart of gratitude, the stronger the effect, 4. The stronger the object of gratitude, the more obvious the effect. 】

[Potential Explosion: 1. Transform food, 2. Accelerate absorption, 3. Strengthen potential, 4. Two-week aging. 】

Skills are the physical manifestation of an adventurer’s personal experience, and most of them appear in the owners of high-level “God’s Grace”.

Some rookies with outstanding potential will also get it.

But Bell, Hestia knows that the girl’s talent is not outstanding, but only at the middle level.But she was like this, after going out for a day and returning near midnight, there were some special marks on her body.

Hestia’s fingers lightly slid across Bell’s back, and she paused for a moment on the words “repayment” and “potential”.

She didn’t know what happened to the girl in the dungeon, but since the other party returned safely, she wouldn’t ask any questions, and would only wait until the day the girl confessed to herself.

but……

His eyes narrowed slightly.

If my guess is correct, Bell’s strength should grow rapidly in the next period of time.
