Is It Wrong to Abusing Cartoon Tropes in Dungeon?

Chapter 261: CA [261]: Fantasy



The members of the Hestia Familia are all skilled individuals, but their numbers are somewhat limited, and their current levels are not particularly high.

Although Altair is already invincible among adventurers in the Danmachi world, his family members are not. Saeko is currently Level 3, equipped with a plethora of gear crafted by Altair, making her combat prowess formidable. However, Kayo and Tina are still only Level 1, and their fighting style leans heavily toward using firearms, earning them the moniker of "arms lolis."

Previously, Altair had crafted a batch of equipment for them, but their physical attributes remained relatively weak. Their petite frames make injuries from large monsters a significant concern.

Coincidentally, Altair has recently become the Spirit King, granting him the ability to form contracts with multiple individuals. High-level spirits, such as military spirits, often require several contractors to harness their power effectively.

As the Spirit King, Altair is naturally not limited to contracting with just one person.

To ensure his family's safety, Altair formed contracts with Saeko, Tina, and Kayo.

This act of contracting with others behind Rinslet's back might seem like infidelity, but Altair assures that in the world of elementalists, Rinslet remains his sole contractor.

Upon contracting with Altair, the trio's physical capabilities were significantly enhanced, and they gained the ability to wield fire.

They can now cast rapid-fire magic without chanting, with its potency increasing as their levels rise, substantially boosting the Hestia Familia's strength.

Saeko, in particular, who previously wielded lightning magic, can now also use fire, truly embodying the phrase "spark with lightning."

Hestia, the goddess of the Hestia Familia, observed her members gaining fire abilities through their contracts with Altair and briefly pondered her own divine role.

"Am I the goddess of the hearth, or is Altair?" she mused.

However, Hestia quickly dismissed these thoughts.

After all, Altair is her beloved, and they are one. His strength brings her joy, so it matters little who holds the title of hearth deity, they are family.

Empowered with their new abilities, Kayo and Tina, under Saeko's guidance, ventured into the dungeon for fun. The dungeon's monsters faced a terrifying ordeal, battling fiercely only to be swiftly dispatched by the two lolis' punches.

The Campione constitution, combined with Est's Steel Queen ability, enhanced their physical prowess, enabling the lolis to fell minotaurs with a single blow, a display of sheer ferocity.

This increased their monster-slaying efficiency, leading Kayo and Tina to pester Saeko daily to take them dungeon-diving. Saeko, ever nurturing, accompanied them whenever asked, driven by her own desire to level up quickly. Meanwhile, Hestia continued her morning jaunts to Gensokyo, returning with a gaggle of lolis to wreak havoc in Orario. This behavior cemented the Hestia Familia's reputation as Orario's infamous loli familia.

A loli goddess leading a loli familia, a perfect match.

Loki, spotting this spectacle on the streets, was consumed with envy. She once urged Riveria to use her maternal charm to lure a few lolis, only to be promptly knocked down by Riveria's staff.

Riveria herself was tempted to recruit some of these exceptionally talented lolis. However, knowing the loli familia's leader was a formidable figure who defeated a dragon at Level 3, she reconsidered, especially given the close alliance between the Loki and Hestia Familias.

Altair, meanwhile, refrained from dungeon expeditions, choosing instead to accompany Hestia, assisting with her errands and overseeing the phone store's renovation.

After several days, the Hestia Familia's phone store was complete. Altair, Hestia, and the lolis spent a day moving goods and decorations, opening the store bright and early the next morning.

For the grand opening, Altair personally delivered invitations to the Loki Familia, Take Mikazuchi Familia, Miach Familia, and Hephaestus Familia, inviting all acquaintances to the event.

These allied familias showed strong support, sending not only their available members but also their gods.

Magic stone phones, a novelty to Orario's populace, drew crowds, especially with the presence of Loki, one of Orario's two major familias. The store's entrance buzzed with people, marking the opening as a resounding success.

On opening day, Altair priced the phones at 990,000 valis, then slashed them to 99,000 valis as a promotional offer, a 90% discount.

This steep discount stunned adventurers, prompting them to eagerly purchase phones.

In reality, Altair crafted these phones, with initial development in the Campione world being somewhat challenging, but subsequent production costs were low, under 50,000 valis per unit.

This venture proved highly profitable for Altair.

However, with only a limited stock brought from the Campione world, only a portion could be sold initially, necessitating further production.

Future production would not rely solely on Altair. He planned to establish a production line in Gensokyo, leveraging abundant resources from the Campione world to create a modern facility. The lolis of Gensokyo would oversee the automated production and assembly, with no rush on production speed.

"Sorry, our production capacity is limited. These products are high-tech with a low yield rate. We ensure no defective items," Altair explained, employing a hunger marketing strategy.

Within two hours of opening, over a thousand magic stone phones sold out.

Elated, Hestia declared, "Everyone, let's celebrate with a feast! Tonight, all expenses are on me!"

With many attendees, hosting at the Hestia Familia was impractical, as it would exhaust Altair and Saeko with cooking duties. Thus, the Hestia Familia booked the Hostess of Fertility for a rare visit.

It had been a while since Altair and company visited the Hostess of Fertility. Mama Mia, the owner, was thrilled about the booking, unleashing her Level 6 adventurer prowess to cook with fervor.

The celebration was lively. Hestia boasted at the gods' table, particularly to Hephaestus, nearly inciting her to retaliate with a bottle.

At the adventurers' table, Altair was a hit, well-liked by the Loki Familia, especially its core members, with whom he shared a strong rapport.

Amid the festivities, one individual kept her eyes on Altair.

Syr, a waitress at the Hostess of Fertility and the disguised goddess Freya, watched Altair intently from the moment he entered. She recalled meeting him before, when his soul radiated black, but now it glowed an unusual yellow.

Such a soul color was unprecedented to her, sparking her curiosity.
