Danmachi: The Sign In System!

Chapter 117: Her Rank Up



Chapter 117 - Her Rank Up

Orsted didn't know what Freya was planning.

He was carrying bags, trailing Hestia as she skipped toward Hearth Mansion.

"Today's date got messed up again, but I'm still happy," Hestia said, stopping abruptly. 

She turned, hands behind her back, beaming at Orsted. 

Orsted sighed softly, his tone gentle. "Let's try another date soon."

Two dates in a row had been ruined, and he doubted Hestia was as cheerful as she appeared. 

He was determined to make it right.

"Deal!" Hestia chirped. 

Who'd complain about more dates with someone they loved? 

If Orsted didn't need to adventure in the dungeon, she'd drag him out daily. 

But she wasn't that greedy.

Hestia stopped skipping, sidled up to Orsted, and hugged his arm, leaning against him with a content smile. 

Orsted smiled back, unresisting, and they strolled to Hearth Mansion.

It was late, and when they arrived, Lili and the others were already back, gathered in the hall. 

"Orsted-sama, you're back!" Lili greeted him first.

"Hey," Orsted said, setting the bags down and ruffling Lili's head gently.

"Hehe," Lili giggled, basking in the affection. 

Despite being fifteen, she acted like a child around Orsted.

Tifa and the others smiled at the scene, then turned to Hestia, who was grinning beside Orsted.

"Hestia, it's time to update our status," Tifa said.

"Hm, it's been two days. Let's do it," Hestia agreed. 

"Everyone, to my room."

"Yes, Hestia-sama!" the group replied.

Hestia grabbed her shopping bags and bounded off.

"Orsted-sama, Lili's gonna get her status updated. I'll be back to hang out after," Lili said reluctantly, trailing the others.

"See you later, Orsted-sama," Elenoir called.

"Catch you soon, Orsted," Tifa added, waving as they followed Hestia.

As the living room emptied, Orsted raised an eyebrow. 

"Hestia's reaction was off this afternoon. Now I get it—she didn't update their status last night."

Yesterday, Orsted had used the Falna Amplification Card on their team, boosting their growth fivefold during adventures. 

Hestia would've noticed the spike during updates and been eager to share the shock. 

Her excitement when he returned made sense, but asking for a date instead of mentioning it was odd.

It clicked—she hadn't updated their status yet, so she didn't know. 

Sure enough, Hestia's startled shout echoed from her room.

Orsted smirked and headed to his workshop. 

He'd gathered plenty of materials today and needed to craft them into magic items. 

Tomorrow, he'd take a half-day to forge weapons, using Udaeus's black sword to make something for Ais. 

"Tifa, Level 2!" Hestia's voice rang out.

Orsted paused. 

After him and Lili, Tifa was the Hestia Familia's third Level 2. 

Grinning, he set down his tools, left the workshop, and headed for Hestia's room.

He didn't know Hestia, Tifa, and the others were also buzzing about this. 

They met at a corridor corner.

"Orsted, Tifa wants your help picking her development ability," Hestia said, beaming.

"Which one's best?" Tifa asked softly, handing over her status parchment. 

"I'm thinking Leap like you and Lili. What do you say?"

Orsted glanced at it.
