The Ultimate Lich King

It is said to be the residence of the god and her dependents, but it looks a little too shabby.

Ye Yu looked up at the building in front of him.

Built in the deepest part of this completely unpopular alley is a dilapidated church.

It can also be said that this two-story building built to show respect for God has almost completely collapsed. On the outside, there are signs of broken and peeling stones everywhere. It is easy for people to feel the kind of faint sadness that has disappeared from people's memories over the years.

At the top of the front entrance, a stone statue of a goddess whose body was in tatters and half of her face was missing looked down at Ye Yu with a smile.

When he thought that a goddess lived in such a place, Ye Yu felt helpless and sad. At the same time, a certain sense of responsibility also became heavy.

You have to work hard to make money, and at least give Hestia a decent place to live, right?

Ye Yu walked into the house, which was as semi-destructed as the outside. Weeds grew thickly between the broken floors. Most of the ceiling above the head has also fallen down, and it is almost as if there is nothing there. That big hole in the roof. Warm sunlight shines in. Shining light on the altar that had managed to maintain its original shape.

Without staying any longer in this church that could basically be called a ruin, Ye Yu came to a small room in front of the altar and walked in. In this dark room there is a row of bookshelves with no books on them. Behind the innermost bookshelf are stairs extending underground.

After walking up this seemingly bottomless staircase, a door appeared in front of Ye Yao's eyes. The door was open, and a faint light leaked from the small window on the door.

"Are you back already Hestia?"

Instead of calling the god like other members of the family, Ye Yu called the god by his name and walked into the door.

The goddess who was called by Ye Yu was lying on the purple sofa, lying on her back, holding an open book in her hand. After hearing Ye Yu's voice, she stood up immediately.

"You're back, you're back! How are you learning the basics of adventurers?"

An excited smile appeared on Hestia's immature face, and she ran to Ye Yu's side.

Although Hestia has exaggerated breasts, she is actually only the size of a child. She is a head shorter than Ye Yu. Standing next to Ye Yu, she looks like a coquettish sister.

But even though we haven't been together for long, this god really likes to act coquettishly. Maybe it's because you've been alone for too long and you feel so lonely?

Ye Yu thought so, his palm unconsciously fell on Hestia's head and stroked it gently, which immediately made Hestia pouted in displeasure.

"It's so rude, no matter the name or behavior! First of all, you are my dependent and you should call me Lord God. Then,

Touching the head of a little girl is prohibited! "

Taking Ye Yu's hand away with one hand, Hestia raised a finger and pressed it on the bridge of Ye Yu's nose.

"I'm sorry... I just think calling Hestia is more affectionate. When it comes to family members... calling her God-sama or something like that is too unfamiliar."

Ye Yu said this with a faint smile on his face, while Hestia twisted her body in embarrassment.

"Ugh... Since Ye Yu said so, I will allow you to call people by their first names. Who makes you my dear family member?"

Hestia said this, pulled Ye Yu to sit on the sofa, and began to ask him various things.

"How, how are you? Do you find it difficult to study? Tomorrow you will officially go to the dungeon. Do you feel nervous or scared? By the way, did the consultant half-elf do anything strange to you?"

After saying that, Hestia's two little hands randomly touched Ye Yu's body, as if to confirm whether her family members had been taken advantage of by others.

"Those... are all very simple and easy-to-understand things, and there is nothing worth paying attention to. Theoretical knowledge is always just knowledge. I still have to wait until I go to the dungeon to practice it before I know whether it is useful."

"Well, that's right. Get some rest early. It's not your first time to go to the dungeon if you don't recharge your batteries."

Hestia said this and pulled Ye Yu towards the bed, looking extremely nervous as if she was going to the dungeon.

"Ye Yu, you sit here first while I prepare dinner. The sales in the store are very good today. The owner is very grateful and gave me a lot of potato balls!"

Feeling a little helpless, Ye Yu had no choice but to let this Lord God torment him. Looking at the girl with a bright smile on her face who was getting dinner, Ye Yu couldn't help but fall into a brief confusion.

He is obviously a high-ranking god, living in such a small and shabby place, and has to work in order to survive, but despite this, can he still show such a happy smile?

Is this enough? Is this kind of life already happy for Hestia, who is a god? Why is it like this?

Ye Yu was so lost in thought that he couldn't help but touch his face. Cold and stiff, even if you are smiling, it still feels as inaccessible as frost, right?

Ye Yu had already felt it when he was with Eina today. This seemed to be an instinctive behavior of self-protection.

It seems that he has made the other party unhappy for a long time.

After all, Eina explained everything about dungeon adventurers to herself with sincerity, but he kept looking at her with a cold face. Even a good-tempered person would be unhappy, right?

Thinking of this, Ye Yu smiled helplessly.

Only when I'm with her... can I relax a little and feel a rare warmth, right?

Thinking of this, looking at Hestia who came back with a big plate of fried potatoes with a smile on her face, Ye Yu couldn't help but show a faint smile again.

Seeing the girl's satisfied and happy smile, Ye Yu felt that the chill in his soul was gradually fading away, and his whole person seemed to have been redeemed.

Hestia, my goddess, I will do everything in my power to protect your smile, in the name of... the dependent family of the god Hestia.

Looking at the smile of the girl in front of him, he made a promise in his heart. At this moment, Ye Yu finally gave up everything that was frozen, and fully integrated into the world as Hestia's family member.
