Zong Chu followed behind Aina. Under the lead of this beautiful half-elf elder sister, the two of them passed through the crowd of adventurers and their supporters.
Then, the two of them came to the back of the huge Tower of Babel. There, Aina's colleagues from the Adventurers Guild were busy working. There were many huge cargo boxes on the ground. Several of these cargo boxes had wheels installed at the bottom of the boxes, which made it more convenient to move them.
Zong Chu remembered that these huge cargo boxes were often used when conquering the deeper parts of the Buried City. They could store food and various spare weapons when entering the Buried City. They could also be used to empty the items and various basic materials when returning from the Buried City.
Aina led the way while Zong Chu followed behind. Both of them were silent. Suddenly, Zong Chu noticed that one of the huge boxes shook.
"Eh…"
Seeing that the box could move on its own, Zong Chu became curious.
"Those are monsters. The guild has entrusted the powerful spawns to collect monsters in the Buried City. They are prepared to be used in the Monster Festival.”
Without even turning her head, Aina explained softly as if she knew what Zong Chu was surprised about.
"Is the Monster Festival some kind of celebration?”Zong Chu asked curiously.
"Yeah ~~" Aina smiled."I forgot. Zong Chu just arrived at O'Leary not long ago. I'll explain it to you. The Monster Festival is actually a grand event that O'Leary holds every year. It's organized by the guild and the entrusted Ganesha clan. It's tomorrow, and it'll be very lively ~"
Zong Chu understood after hearing Aina's explanation. It was just a holiday like May Day or National Day. He nodded and said nothing more. He just waited for Aina to finish her work and then return to the city with her.
Zong Chu, who had only watched the first episode of the original novel, didn't know that in the second episode, which was tomorrow, he would be chased by monsters again... and it was planned by the goddess who was on the highest level of Babel.
" Hey…Zong Chu…Wait a minute…" Aina, who had just finished explaining, suddenly turned around and called out to Zong Chu.
Zong Chu stopped and looked at Aina.
Aina suddenly took a few steps back and reached out to wipe Zong Chu's head. A leaf that had just fallen on Zong Chu's head was gently brushed off by her.
"Thank you." Zong Chu didn't even notice the fallen leaves on his head.
Aina smiled, thinking how wonderful it would be if such a scene could be repeated day after day. She was not referring to sweeping away the leaves, but to walking together with Zong Chu every day.
"Ding dong! [Solemn Protection Skill activated. Aina has fallen in love with you at first sight!]”
" Uh…" Zong Chu stared blankly at the incomparably beautiful Aina under the setting sun.

…………
Under the setting sun, Hestia, who had just returned from Hephaestus 'place, alighted from the carriage " taxi."
"Driver, this is enough! I can walk the rest of the way back!”
After getting out of the car, Hestia happily tightened the sword on her back and said to the driver happily,""Thank you. How much is the fare?"
"Ninety Varys." the coachman said subconsciously.
" Humph! So cheap!" Hestia happily took out her purse and poured out a hundred Varys silver coins and handed it to the coachman.
Then, she said in a dignified manner,"Keep the change." I'll give you the rest as a tip!"
Now, Hestia felt that she had the confidence to say that because she was rich now. She also had a rich god! This money was naturally the last Varys gold coin that Zong Chu left for her in the morning.
"Thank you, Goddess!" The coachman said in surprise.
Hestia was also very famous among the ordinary people in O'Leary... This fame was the same as her " fame " among her divine friends, which was poor!
Originally, the coachman didn't want to charge her for this ride because he knew that this goddess was famous for being poor. However, the coachman was about to get off work when he happened to meet Hestia who was coming to take a taxi. Moreover, it was on the way, so he thought of giving Hestia a ride for free. After all, she was a goddess.
He didn't expect that not only did Hestia give him money, but she also gave him a tip. Although it wasn't much, it was still a tip!
However, the coachman was a kind-hearted person. He was afraid that Hestia had given him the money to save face, and he was afraid that Hestia would have no money after giving him the money. Therefore, he reacted after Hestia took a few steps and shouted,"Um…Goddess Hestia…this ride is free, I can't take your money!”
Hestia, the new class 'tycoon' had already walked far away. She didn't hear what the coachman said and happily rushed into the path.
Seeing that Hestia was walking so fast, the kind coachman couldn't help but become suspicious again. He muttered,""The goddess ran so fast…could it be fake?”
Then, he took the Varys silver coin that Hestia gave him and bit it…If Hestia saw this, she would probably fly into a rage and shout,"Am I the kind of person (god) who uses fake money?!”
Hestia walked along the path for a while, and then she saw the warm sunset shining into the other end of the path.
She ran through the exit of the small road and ran to the East Main Street.
What awaited her was an endless stream of people.
And-
Zong Chu, who was chatting and laughing with Aina in the crowd.
Hestia flew into a rage.
"Ahhh! Zong Chu, you bastard! You actually cheated on me!"
