Chapter 13 – Hestia, you can sleep in my bed.
I couldn't see the effects of the skill because I hadn't acquired it yet, but it would probably help me win over the women in this world. It's not something like mind control, but something that makes me more attractive.
Like an incubus? I'm not sure.
I hope I don't get a nickname like "Incubus" or something. I like sex, but such a nickname would be at least embarrassing.
'But how should I get the first member for my harem? Do the women have to fall in love with me or something?'
I've never been an expert at making women fall in love with me, so making Aisha fall for me will be pretty complicated. Maybe by using my dick? She must have enjoyed having sex with me.
Hmm… Or I could go after another character. Maybe, Tiona? Tione… Or Mikoto. I like all of them.
'Haruhime is out of the question, and the goddesses are also out of the question for now. Hestia is the easiest one to get close to, but she won't fall for me so easily.'
"What's wrong? You haven't finished eating. Is something bothering you?"
"Yes, I'm worried about something. It's about a woman. I'm thinking about how I can get closer to her."
"A woman?" Hestia's face turned red. "I can't help you with that, sorry."
"Don't worry, it's okay." I got up from the couch. "I'm not hungry anymore. I'll head back home now."
"Oh, right, I forgot to ask you about that. You said you rented a house, but that was a lie. Don't tell me you broke into someone's house or something."
"No, of course not. The room is mine, I can promise you that. Besides, it doesn't seem like many people live where I do. It's tranquil most of the afternoon and night."
"I want to visit you. I'm curious to see where you live. I feel like you live in a better place than I do, which makes me jealous." Hestia pouted, and I laughed.
"You can come with me if you want, but nothing is interesting there. I have a closet, a bed… That's it." I also have a computer. I don't mind explaining to her what it is. Since it doesn't work, I won't be able to show it functioning.
It would be great to have a computer in this world.
"Are you sure? I'm going to take a bath before going. Wait here for me!"
"Okay,"
Hestia didn't mean anything by that, but I was still excited.
We arrived at my room and went in.
"This is where I live. Don't be impressed by the mess."
There were some clothes on the floor, and the bed was messy. I had already put away all the volumes of Danmachi, so there was no risk of her finding them. The only thing on the shelves were a few volumes left from other works.
"Wow, what is all this?! You never told me you had this kind of thing here. Are they books? And what's that strange thing?" Hestia pointed to the computer table.
"These are books from where I come from. I'm not from here, I'm from far away."
"Can you tell me the name of the city?"
"If I tell you, you won't recognize it. Have you ever heard of a place called the United States?"
"Hmmm... Never heard of it. You born there?"
"Yes, it's not a lie. All these books were bought there. I also bought that strange thing. It's called a computer. You can use it to access the internet, write, and play games."
"Internet?"
"It's hard to explain, but know that it's impossible to use it here. It doesn't even turn on, see." I clicked the power button on the computer, and it didn't turn on. "I've tried everything to make it work, but it doesn't."
"What a strange place you were born in. I've never heard of any of these things or these books. Besides, they're in a strange language. Can you understand it?"
"Of course, I can read everything. Do you want me to translate a book for you? It's an interesting read."
"Wouldn't that be too much work?"
"No, of course not. I can do it in my free time. Besides, I love showing people things I like. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. I just need some paper and a pen, and I'll translate everything for you."
"I'm curious to know what kind of things you read when living in the city where you were born."
Hestia was still staring at the computer. She then sat in the chair before it and started typing on the keyboard.
"It's so soft, but it makes so much noise."
"I used it to write things on the computer. See that? Each button is a letter. I had a hobby of writing, but I never published a book before. I always wanted to… But I ended up not doing it."
"Why don't you write on paper and try to publish here? I'm sure the people of Orario would love to read a good story."
"I can think about that later. I'll keep earning money in the dungeon and getting stronger. Wasn't that why you allowed me to join your Familia? I need to get stronger."
"..." Hestia got up and walked around. She was smiling, very curious about everything. I confess it was cute, very cute. I wanted to tell her everything about my world.
But just telling her about the computer is enough.
'But about writing… That's not a bad idea. I have so many stories stored in my head. Stories I've read and also stories I've created from scratch. Publishing them here would be interesting.'
But I shouldn't think about that now.
"Luan, I think I should go back now. Your room is good. I expected you to sleep in a small and dirty room. I'm surprised."
"Who do you think I am? A beggar?"
"Hehehe. But your bed looks comfortable, much more comfortable than mine."
"You can use it tonight if you want."
"What?! You pervert!" Hestia's face turned red like a tomato, and I laughed at her while explaining that I wouldn't sleep in the bed with her. I have a mattress I had stored in the closet.
It's an uncomfortable mattress that I used to put on the floor when my friend came to sleep at my house during high school. It's been stored for a long time.
"You idiot, then explain it right! But thanks for the offer. I'm leaving now!"
"See you later, Goddess."
