Chapter 124 Reward

Eero then walked through the floor, which looked like safe zone. "69th and this 70th floor are dark floors, they are like abyss. Also, it looks like the black one-eyed dragon ran away from the 71st floor," Eero muttered, recalling dark monsters and infant dragons he encountered on the 69th floor.

They all were proper 7th Level, and they were extremely intelligent. Even normal monsters on these floors use intelligent tactics.

"I also think that there must be huge danger on the 71st floor; that's why Zeus and Hera familia couldn't clear that floor for years," Ryuu startled, then nodded and replied. She was also extremely surprised when Eero told her that both guilds had already explored till the 71st floor but couldn't progress forward. Instead, they were defeated by the one eyed black dragon there which later ran away from the dungeon.

"Well, it's time to go back," Eero said thoughtfully, looking at Ryuu. Although fighting those monsters inside the deep floors increased her strength a lot, he can't take her to the next floors. He felt the next journey may be extremely dangerous. Also, he has to let Hestia upgrade him to 9th level.

Ryuu nodded, ready to go back. She also felt she is becoming a burden on Eero slowly.

Eero then grabbed her hand. Ryuu startled, glanced at him with redness covering her cheeks. Both instantly disappeared, leaving the dark floor in their wake.

Outside near the dungeon entrance, Eero and Ryuu's figures materialized.

Looking at the crowd around, surprised to see both of them appearing suddenly, Ryuu hurriedly retracted her hand, then glanced at Eero with a tomato-like red face. She said a little stutteringly, "Thank you for everything. I... I will see you later." Then hurriedly left, walking toward the pub.

Eero smiled, looking at her back, and shook his head. 'This noble elf is really a shy race.' Then he walked toward the Hestia Castle.

On the way, he heard collision sounds. His figure flickered and appeared on the roof instantly, looking at the Minotaur and Bell fighting. It was the same Minotaur he defeated before. Now, it is more stronger. Even level 3 Bell is not its opponent now.

Eero glanced at the Loki Familia and other adventurers standing around, witnessing their battles.

'It seems the plot is messed up, but his growth hasn't slowed down,' he thought to himself, looking at Bell fighting the level 6 Minotaur.

After a while, the Minotaur defeated Bell, throwing him toward the sky, and walked away inside the dungeon, saying he will challenge Bell again.

Thud!

Bell fell on the ground, crying over his defeat, resolved to defeat the Minotaur next time.

Eero became speechless. 'That Minotaur is probably his true wife, even resurrected for him again.' Then he shook his head, removing such speechless thoughts from his mind.

…

Inside Hestia Castle:

Bell was lying in the room, bandaged.

Outside, Eero was talking with Hestia and other Familia members.

"What? You ventured on the 61st floor alone? That must have been very dangerous. I told you not to go that deep into the dungeon," Hestia exclaimed angrily, her face turning a little pale, looking at him resentfully.

"Don't worry, even if it was dangerous, I am strong enough to deal with such danger," Eero replied, scratching his cheek embarrassingly. Looking at Hestia's resentful expression, 'Thankfully, I haven't told her I already ventured to the 70th floor.'

Others around them were also surprised, looking at Eero in awe. 'What kind of monster is he?'

Soon it was night.

Hestia sat on Eero's back, looking at his status reaching the limit again: 2199 SSS attributes.

'As expected,' Hestia thought to herself helplessly. She was already prepared for this.

Biting her finger, instantly she started ranking him up.

A warm current spread through the whole body of Eero. After a while, a status panel appeared in front of him and Hestia.

Both were surprised, looking at the status panel.

"Eero Kun, you have awakened another development ability," Hestia said, looking at the Slayer ability, showing his status page.

Eero nodded, then turned around, looking at Hestia startled, sitting on his stomach. He smiled wickedly, grabbed her amidst her exclamation, and pulled her below him.

Looking at her red cheeks and feeling her fast heartbeat.

"I have worked so hard ranking me up, you should reward me, goddess," Eero whispered in her ear. Instantly, Hestia trembled. Eero then kissed her small mouth.

Rustling!

Slowly, clothes disappeared. After letting her reach peak, Eero invaded her. Pleasure spread through both of their bodies. In a while, rhythmic beautiful moaning sound spread through the whole room.

The moon shone, stars glittered. Time passed.

Next morning,

Looking at Hestia lying on his body with scattered hair, she sat up, awakened, looking around. Then she glanced at her body, recalling the previous night's craziness. Instantly, her face turned red, feeling something slowly tightening again, touching her back.

Seeing her sleepy face scattered hair and twin white peaks, also curvaceous body, Eero mouth curved his beastly desired, grabbed her waist, picked her up a little then let her sit down above it.

"Ummm" Hestia murmured her eyes widened all her sleepiness disappeared, feeling huge thing like nightmare invading her again.

After a while, Eero appeared outside refreshed, while Hestia followed, exhausted and lethargic. While eating breakfast, she glanced angrily at Eero amidst the surprised expressions of other Familia members.

"Our Hestia Familia is going to hold a God's banquet. Eero Kun upgraded to 8th rank," Hestia announced with a smile, purposefully hiding the 9th level.

"Really amazing, 8th level," Lily and Bell were surprised, looking at Eero in admiration, while Mikoto and Welf were shocked in awe. '8th level, as expected of the Primarch, the strongest Adventurer in Orario.'

...
