This was not a lie.
After achieving the 'Demigod' Status—or more precisely, after obtaining Divine Power—Levi's main body could no longer enter the Dungeon.
However, the Spirit Clones he summoned using the 'Valkyrie Class Card', although they also possessed Divine Power through a sharing method, could still explore the Labyrinth. This was because Spirits were originally creations made by the gods to carry their own divine souls; as long as they did not intentionally actively use Divine Power, the Dungeon would not reject them.
Next, needless to say, Levi's primary goal was to obtain a third type of high-dimensional energy, which he temporarily named 'Pitch-black Divine Power', in addition to Divine Power and Spiritual Light.
Secondly, he needed to reprogram the Falna system.
But clearly, even now, he could only temporarily force out the divine blood incorporated into his body when Hestia granted him the Falna, thereby converting the power source of the Falna into his own Divine Power.
To put it another way, if he wanted to continue gaining strength, then without using Law Crystals, Levi needed to rely on his Spirit Clones to frantically harvest blood and heart-type materials in the Dungeon.
Coupled with miscellaneous matters such as experiments or communicating with the outside world, strictly speaking, it was indeed as he said: all his Spirit Clones would become extremely busy in the short term.
Seeing that the young man sitting opposite her did not seem to be lying, Demeter sighed slightly.
Although this orange-haired goddess didn't say it out loud, in her heart, she had actually planned to foster feelings with him over time through the Spirits.
However, since Levi and his clones really couldn't spare the time, Demeter didn't choose to be unreasonable.
"I understand." She nodded her head. Her tone remained gentle, but the will within her words was not to be ignored by others. "I have heard a saying: If the mountain won't come to me, I will go to the mountain."
"Levi, I have indeed become aware that you will be very busy for the coming period."
"So..."
As she spoke, Demeter's cherry lips curled up slightly, and a smile as warm as the scorching sun appeared on her face.
"I have decided. Next, I will buy the land next to the Hestia Familia residence and build it into the new Demeter Familia residence."
"With the Hestia Familia and Hephaestus Familia as neighbors, I assume no one blind enough will dare to approach us again."
"It's just that when the time comes, don't despise me for visiting too frequently~"
"..." ×5
Hearing the goddess's plan, Levi could not help but fall into silence.
Beside him, the expressions on the faces of Hestia, Hephaestus, Artemis, and Astrea also became incredibly strange.
The goddesses knew Demeter's true objective. Especially Artemis; at this moment, because of her friend's unvarnished approach, she revealed an exaggerated facial expression akin to Aqua.
She was envious, she was jealous, and she also wanted to run over to the Hestia Familia residence every day!
Fortunately, the Artemis Familia had accumulated a considerable amount of wealth from past missions for The Guild.
Therefore, without even half a moment of hesitation, the blue-haired Moon Goddess immediately raised her small hand.
"Then, I will buy that piece of land in the area behind the Hestia Familia residence."
Levi, Hestia, Hephaestus, Demeter, Astrea: "(←_←)"
Seeing everyone present gazing at her with inexplicable looks, she flushed slightly red.
She decided to just smash the pot since it was already cracked: "The Artemis Familia is an ally of the Hestia Familia. Being closer to each other will also make it convenient for joint expeditions or missions in the future."
Regardless of what others thought, anyway, ahem, Artemis believed her own rhetoric.
Levi sighed.
He wasn't obtuse regarding emotional matters; how could he not discover Demeter and Artemis's true intentions? Moreover, the 'Goddesses' Loving Protection' sub-page in the magic column of his character panel had already directly stated their little thoughts.
At this moment, he could only reply with a sentence: "These are the internal affairs of the Demeter Familia and the Artemis Familia. I have no right to interfere."
As soon as his voice fell, a pfft sound was heard in everyone's ears, and Astrea's laughter rang out.
"Ah, sorry, sorry." The Goddess presiding over Justice wiped a tear from the corner of her eye while apologizing with absolutely no sincerity. "Demeter, Artemis, why didn't I realize you two were so interesting when we were in Tenkai?"
After saying that, she didn't give her friends a chance to retort: "It's decided. I'll also step in on this alliance matter. It just so happens that Alise and the others are currently working for the Hestia Familia anyway. Having to run back and forth every time they need to update their Falna is a bit troublesome for them. So, Hephaestus, can you sell me that piece of land behind your house?"
Hearing this, the red-haired goddess pressed her forehead: "I don't mind. As long as the money is right, everything is negotiable."
"However..."
She glanced at her friends from Tenkai: "Does this count as a team-building exercise for us Olympia goddesses in the Lower World?"
Hestia also couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Isn't this quite good~ If we live close to each other, we can provide timely support if the kind of trouble Demeter encountered happens again."
Over the next half hour or so.
Witnessed by Levi, the Olympia Goddess Alliance was quietly established.
During the alliance period, Hephaestus, Artemis, Demeter, Astrea, and their respective dependents would each receive one opportunity for Constellation Awakening, and enjoy a purchase discount of up to one-fifth on Hestia Familia sparkling wine.
Hephaestus and Artemis had already awakened their Constellations previously, so they will be skipped.
Demeter and Astrea, however, felt the 'Hero King's' special methods up close for the first time.
Especially Astrea; aside from being the Goddess of Justice, she was also the Goddess of the Stars.
Witnessing six Constellation Stars closely related to Demeter's destiny rise behind her back, and then personally experiencing a 'Constellation Awakening' herself, Astrea was truly shocked for a moment.
If not for her preconceived notions about Levi, she might have developed a level of favorability toward the young man before her that far exceeded friendship, just like the other goddesses present.
(Agricultural Goddess Constellation + Star Goddess Constellation, Images! Images! Images!)
[Agricultural Goddess Constellation]
[God 3-Star Buff: Can activate 'Abundant Harvest Domain', allowing crops within the domain to achieve super-high-speed growth.]
[Demigod 5-Star Buff: When cultivating crops, benign mutations have a probability of occurring in the final product (toggleable).]
[Star Goddess Constellation]
[God 3-Star Buff: Unlocks Magic 'Star Contract' (7-Star). Can sign contracts with up to 10 stars in the sky to obtain extra buffs.]
[Demigod 5-Star Buff: All attacks launched gain an additional 'Justice Judgment' effect (toggleable). When the hit target's alignment is Evil, damage is significantly increased.]
The buffs provided by the 3-Star and 5-Star levels of Demeter's Agricultural Goddess Constellation and Astrea's Star Goddess Constellation were actually not bad.
At least, for themselves, this was indeed the case.
But after being shared with Levi, they could at most be considered icing on the cake, rather than help in a time of need.
Enemies he could defeat, such as other adventurers, monsters in the Labyrinth, or Floor Bosses, could still be defeated without the new Constellations.
Enemies he couldn't defeat, such as the deities, he still couldn't defeat.
If this was the case for the goddesses' Constellations, there was even less need to mention their dependents.
Even for Alise, Gojouno Kaguya, and the others who had successfully undergone Incarnation, not all 6 Constellation Stars were lit up after their Constellation Awakening.
Others were even worse off: one star for Lv.1, two stars for Lv.2, three stars for Lv.3, and they were all Mortal-tier Constellation Stars.
