Chapter 56 – New mission: Have sex with a goddess.
I stayed turned away until Hestia finished putting on all her clothes.
I restrained myself from turning around, but I didn't do it. As I mentioned before, it may have been a foolish decision, but I preferred to do that.
"Are you dressed?" I asked before turning around.
"Yes…" Hestia replied timidly. Her voice was as if she was about to faint from embarrassment. I turned to her, and Hestia refused to look me in the eyes. I couldn't help but laugh.
"Haha, don't worry, everyone does this kind of thing, you know?"
"Don't say anything else!" Hestia shouted at me and pouted. "Get out now, we'll talk tomorrow…"
"But I came here to talk about my book. Didn't you help me with it? I saw you in the library this morning."
"..." Hestia's eyes widened. "I don't know why I'm surprised. I already suspected you were there."
"Thank you, Goddess. Thanks to you, we made all this money." I handed her the bag of money, and Hestia looked inside. When she saw the amount of money, she was speechless.
"Aren't you going to say anything?"
"How do you expect me to say something in this situation? Can't you see I'm dying of embarrassment?!" Hestia handed me the bag of money and turned her back to me. "Can you leave now? We can talk better tomorrow."
"If that's what you want, I'll leave now. But know that I don't think much of what you were doing. Everyone does it. I mean... Masturbating."
"Can you shut up?!" Hestia turned and shouted at me. She couldn't even keep her eyes open, and her face was so red that it looked like she might faint at any moment.
I decided not to tease her anymore and left the church. However, I left the money on the table.
"Soon, we'll look for a new house to expand our Familia."
"..." Hestia didn't respond and stood still as she watched me leave the church.
I left and went straight to my room.
When I entered, a new system notification arrived.
[ New monthly mission available! ]
[ Buy a house for your Familia. ]
[ Reward: 10 points ]
[ New monthly mission available! ]
[ Have sex with a Goddess ]
[ Reward: 20 points ]
Two missions arrived at the same time. The first mission is easy, but the second one is more complex. Besides, it came at a very opportune moment.
Whoever created this system must be watching everything I'm doing.

I woke up feeling excited. I want to go to the church to talk to Hestia about the house, and I'm also eager to go to the library to see how much they have sold.
And... I also want to test my new weapon, which I haven't tested yet.
In other words, I want to do a lot of things today. First, I'll go to the dungeon to test my new weapon. I don't need to stay there for several hours. Just two or three hours should be enough. I want to test its sharpness and whether its poisoning capability is functional.
So, I went to the dungeon.
Once again, my skill [Charming Aura] started to cause some commotion. I fled before it could cause any problems. Honestly, it's not that great being chased by all these women.
I dislike most of them because they are NPCs and not very pretty. When they get in my way, it irritates me.
'Now let's focus on this.'
I wonder if my [Swordsmanship] skill will work now that I'm using a dagger. I guess there's no difference, right?
And to my relief, the skill continued to work. My movements remained fluid and very precise. With each attack with my dagger, it was an instant kill.
Goblins and kobolds don't have much defense, so my dagger entered their necks easily. And with a movement, I cut off their heads.
'The sharpness is excellent. Now about the poison.'
I searched for more monsters. When I found a group of three goblins, I used [Dark Magic] to block their vision and approached them. My dagger made superficial cuts on the three goblins.
I stepped back and observed.
My magic dissipated, and the goblins finally saw me and tried to attack. Soon, the poison started to take effect. It's a paralytic poison that also kills the enemy.
However, it will only work on small monsters.
The goblins suffered a lot until they died, and their bodies turned into magic stones and items.
And a skill leveled up! Swordsmanship is now at level four!
I need to focus more on leveling up my skills. Level-up "Super Strength LV2," "Speed LV2," and "Berserk LV2" would be fantastic.
But it will take a while. I need to use the skills a lot, and I don't want to do that now.
Now that I've tested my weapon, I can go back.
Running, I left the dungeon and then went directly to the library. When I arrived at the library, the line wasn't as long as yesterday, but there were still quite a few customers. Everyone was leaving the store with my book in hand.
This is incredible. Even though it's not something originally mine, it's great to see my book being sold.
And seeing this, I think again about how I'll continue the story.
'System, you can help me with this, right? How about giving me all the volumes of Re: Zero?'
Of course, the system won't help me with that.
I entered the library and talked to the owner. We had made a high profit in the first hours of the day. She said our profit will keep increasing if I publish more books.
I could become the world's richest author and turn her library/store into the largest store in Orario.
'I hope I can meet her expectations.'
With a bag of money in hand, I went to the church.
'It would be amazing to find Hestia masturbating again. I would take the opportunity to complete the monthly mission the system gave. Have sex with a Goddess...'
