Chapter 658

"Furini, they're mocking Seth and the others from the Soma Familia—after kicking an iron plate, they got turned around and sold over here."

Samira, an Amazon woman with gray hair and a hot bikini outfit, answered the question from the toad-like woman behind her.

"Seth?!"

Upon hearing this, Furini—who looked like a humanoid female toad but possessed genuine Lv. 5 strength—her eyes lit up.

"Two Lv1s, one Lv2; we can offer at most seven hundred thousand Valis."

Below, Aisha quoted a neither high nor low purchase price.

"Is it that little?"

Broly had never sold people, only feeling this quote was somewhat unfair to the earnings adventurers make from delving into the Dungeon.

"These few pieces of trash are only worth this price; if it doesn't work, please go elsewhere."

Just as Aisha finished speaking, a huge figure came thundering down the stairs.

"I'll pay one million Valis; I'll buy all three of these guys."

Furini came down and said generously.

"Ah, it's Furini."

"Seth and the others are done for."

The battle prostitutes gathered around whispered among themselves, while the three about to be sold turned deathly pale upon seeing the person coming down from upstairs.

She was a plump, tank-like woman whose head looked like a giant frog, and she emitted strange croaking laughs from her mouth.

When her gaze landed, it first stayed on Bell, then swept past Broly, and finally settled on Seth and the other two.

She stuck out her tongue to lick her lips, tossed a bag of Valis onto the table, and asked: "Do you two sell yourselves? I can offer you a high price."

Bell's face had already turned pale; when he first entered here, he had felt that joining the Ishtar Familia and staying here wasn't bad upon seeing many beautiful Amazon misses, but now he felt he had seen true Hell.

"The goods are only these three people."

Broly met Furini's gaze and answered her question.

"Huh?!"

Furini narrowed her eyes; she rarely saw someone not attracted by her beauty (actually showing fear because they were terrified of her ugliness).

However, the little shota wasn't her type, but the white-haired boy beside her wasn't bad—she wanted to trample him; yet if she wanted pleasure, she still needed adventurers like Seth and the others who looked stronger.

"Croak croak croak…"

Furini let out a strange laugh.

"Then forget it; having these three guys is enough for now."

"Ah, Furini, you can actually take them; they're cute and much better-looking than us."

At this moment, Furini's terror surpassed Seth's fear of pain; this man hurriedly spoke, wanting the Ishtar Familia's "Man Killer" regiment leader to target Broly and Bell, the two who sold them and others.

However, after this man finished speaking, his head was grabbed by a large hand, and with a bang, it was smashed into the floor tiles.

"Why… why?"

When Furini pulled his head out, blood flowed down his face; the man was very confused as to why he had been smashed.

"Seth, are you an idiot? Laying hands on a merchant selling goods—who would dare bring kidnapped people to sell to us like you?"

The Ishtar Familia ran the business of male courtesans and female prostitutes; the Main God and their Familia were certainly not good people, but they still abided by some rules.

At least, they wouldn't treat the goods owner who brought goods to sell as prey just because of one sentence about selling goods.

As for Seth and the other two versus Broly and the other one, it was clear who came to sell things; this guy actually said he wanted to toy with them, the Ishtar Familia, so he had to be taught a slight lesson.

However, the bleeding man looked like a better taste.

"Please, we'll pay you back, no matter how much you want, but please don't let us be bought by this monster."

The other two begged Broly for mercy; Broly also figured out what these three feared here, but ignored them, directly took the money bag on the table, and said to Furini: "Deal achieved; they're yours now."

The Ishtar Familia's "Heavyweight Beauty" grinned, and with one hand encircled the other two in her arms: "You two dare call me a monster; you really have guts, but later I'll let you see a body more beautiful than Lady Ishtar's, so you know what a true beauty is!"

Furini stuck out her tongue and licked the men's faces; that scene could scare any normal man into shrinking.

But it was fine; every time she used medicine, she let every man who coupled with her properly recognize her charm, wanting to vent impatiently on her—the desire stirred by the drug, hard to suppress.

Seth and the other two were dragged away by the Ishtar Familia's regiment leader, the road full of miserable screams, like people about to step into Hell.

Bell suddenly understood why those few people earlier didn't want to tell Broly-san where Pleasure Street was; with such strong, terrifying women here, this place was simply a place where nightmares happened, and if the one sold here was himself, he might end up like that.

Thinking of this, Bell suddenly shivered, and his gratitude toward Broly beside him began to flood his heart, not at all less than the gratitude for saving his life before.

Well, this was the grace of saving his chastity.

Just as Broly stood up, preparing to leave with Bell.

"Little Brother Bell, come over here when you have time; take care of our business."

"If it's you, Sister can give it to you for free!"

The Ishtar Familia's battle prostitutes were very enthusiastic; or rather, most Amazon women were like this, and rather than saying they were prostitutes, they were more like the regular clients of Pleasure Street; meeting cute boys, they might even pay the boys themselves.

Bell's cute appearance was obviously welcomed by them, and this pure boy had his name pumped out by these beautiful big sisters around him just now.

"Little brother whose name I don't know, if you come to patronize us, Sister can give it to you for free too!"

Broly had similar treatment, but perhaps because he looked a bit young, not many people showed interest in him.

"Hey, Lena, you actually like this type?"

Hearing this, some battle prostitutes looked at the speaking girl in surprise.

"I don't know if it's my illusion, but I always feel this child attracts me more."

Lena answered somewhat shyly; although she looked like a pure girl, her essence was a true carnivorous girl.

"This is the strong radar, right?"

Other prostitutes teased the girl, and anyone could see that Seth and those few feared more the black-haired boy with the cold attitude than the white-haired boy who blushed from their teasing after coming in.

"Sorry, you're not the one I want to encounter."

Broly shook his head and refused the Amazon girl who was showing him goodwill—or rather, was in heat—and walked past her, continuing outside.

"Bell, watch out, don't fall behind."

While walking out, he didn't forget to remind the boy behind him, because he always felt the other might be grabbed and then forcibly kept there.

Declaring a harem before entering the city, but actually being a guy who doesn't know how to deal with women—this was Broly's actual impression of the boy Bell.

"Ah, yes."

Bell replied, hurriedly catching up, blushing and keeping his head down, not daring to look at the flirtatious prostitute older sisters.

"Such a cute reaction, I really want to keep that boy and savor him properly..."

Around them were all sorts of bold remarks.

【Truly worthy of Broly-san, he can handle this kind of scene with ease.】

Looking at the boy's back ahead, completely unaffected by the outside world, Bell felt great admiration.

"What's wrong with you? You were fine when we parted, but today you almost got sold?"

After leaving Pleasure Street and arriving at the normal streets outside, Broly asked the boy following behind him.

"Ah, I..."

Bell's nose soured, and he began to speak of how he had wanted to join a Familia these past few days but was repeatedly refused.

As a former farmer and a half-grown lad not very old, no Familia was willing to take him in.

Compared to recruiting a half-grown lad who needs care, ambitious Familias are more willing to recruit those who don't need care and can immediately become combat power upon joining.

Compared to dwarves, beastmen, and elves, humans and Pallums are comparatively harder to join Familias; capable guys are another matter, but those without ability probably end up like Bell.

Except for meeting a male god with a taste for boys who showed intent to recruit, all others were refused, and then Seth of the Soma Familia spoke to him, saying he could help but wanted money, until today when he almost got abducted and sold as a Jagamarukun.

After hearing Bell's misfortune, Broly didn't know what to say for a while.

Saying he was unlucky, yet he met me.

Saying he was lucky, yet he almost got sold.

But overall, he should still be luckier than not.

"Then Broly-san, what about you?"

"I've already met the person I wanted to encounter."

"Ah, congratulations!"

Bell's eyes showed envy, and a smile from his true heart appeared on his face, as if he was truly happy about Broly's smooth encounter.

"Next."

A big bag of money was thrown over, and Bell caught it in a fluster, almost falling from the weight of the money bag.

"Broly-san, what is this?"

The boy already had a premonition, but still asked.

"The money I got back for you."

Broly replied.

"But I was only scammed out of fourteen thousand three hundred Valis; I don't need this much."

"The extra, just consider it compensation from the person who scammed you."

The heavy money bag in his arms, the Saiyan boy's words, heavily struck Bell's heart.

The grace of saving his life, the grace of preserving his chastity, and now giving him a large sum of money.

Growing up, aside from his deceased grandfather, the person before him was the one who treated him best.

Bell's eyes were brimming with tears, but he didn't accept all the money, only taking back the amount he was scammed out of.

Then he returned the money bag.

"Aren't you very short on money?"

Broly looked at him strangely.

"But I'm more grateful for your help; without Broly-san, I would definitely have nothing, and this money should belong to you."

"Of course, I know this can't fully repay your help; it's just that I can't yet make a living in the city of Orario, and once I can make a living and earn money, I will definitely treat Broly-san to a big meal."

Bell bowed to the boy again, waved his hand, and then left.

Looking at the money in his hand, Broly didn't quite understand why the boy short on money gave up this unexpected windfall, but regarding Bell's saying he wanted to treat him to a big meal, he was still very relieved.

He helped the boy offhandedly, but the boy's grateful behavior and attitude provided him with some emotional value.

, 000 Valis isn't much, but his mood had a pleasant feeling of having done a good deed; Broly walked with light steps toward the Hephaestus Familia's base.

At the same time, a Guild staff member visited the Loki Familia's base—the Twilight Manor—at this moment and issued a quest to the Familia's god Loki.

"The Dungeon had abnormal vibrations this morning; the Guild wants to find out the cause of the vibrations, so they issued us a quest to explore the Dungeon."

"This is a quest, not a request; we have no right to refuse, so although the rest time after the expedition is a bit short, please prepare to dive into the Dungeon tomorrow."

Finn, the captain of the Loki Familia, gathered the Loki Familia's adventurers and explained the basic situation of the Guild quest publicly.

"No problem, Captain; we've been a bit idle for a while, and the Guild's quest this time came just right."

Tione, an Amazon who likes Finn, raised her hand and gave a positive response.

"That's right."

Beside her, her twin sister Tiona also echoed.

"Captain, may I ask how many floors of the Labyrinth we need to go down to?"

Raul raised his hand to ask.

"The cause of the Dungeon's abnormal vibration is still unclear; I don't know specifically which floor we need to go down to either; anyway, let's first prepare exploration supplies according to expedition standards."

Furthermore, abnormal occurrences in the Dungeon are matters that require serious handling; no one knows whether unknown dangers exist in a Dungeon where an abnormality has occurred.

Therefore, I hope everyone will treat this Guild Quest seriously, and absolutely must not take it lightly.

"Mm." "Oh!" "Understood."...

The members of the Loki Familia, with different responses, indicated their attitude of taking it seriously.

Returning to the Hephaestus Familia's base, Broly saw his own Goddess pacing back and forth at the front door, looking just like an ant on a hot pan.

Upon seeing the boy appear at the street corner, the Loli Goddess's eyes brightened, and she ran flying toward Broly's side.

Hestia had originally been working part-time at the Fried Potato Ball Shop, but upon suddenly hearing from fellow part-time God Takemikazuchi that something had gone wrong on the Dungeon side, she rushed back in a hurry.

She had originally wanted to go wait at the Labyrinth entrance, but was persuaded by Hephaestus that it was too chaotic there, and waiting there might cause her to miss Broly; it was better to just wait here.

She had waited until now, and only upon seeing Broly did she finally set her mind at ease, asking: "Broly, are you alright? I heard an abnormality appeared in the Dungeon."

"Uh, Lady Hestia, I'm fine."

"Then why didn't you come back earlier, making me worry so much?"

"Sorry, on the way back I encountered an acquaintance; the other party ran into some difficulties, and I gave them a hand, delaying things slightly."

"Eh, Broly's acquaintance?"

Hestia thought for a moment, then recalled.

"Is it that white-haired boy?"

"Mm, his name is Bell..."

Broly nodded, then told his own Goddess about Bell's situation and encounter.

"Not only was he swindled out of his money, he was nearly abducted and sold off."

"Ah, deceiving a country boy of his money and even preparing to sell the person off — such a swindler is truly hateful. Broly, seeing injustice on the road and stepping in to help — you did a good job on this matter!"

After hearing it all, Hestia felt both indignation toward the swindler and pride in her own boy's daring behavior in lending a hand; she is a kind-hearted Goddess, after all.

"Come, let's go up. Once we're up, you tell me in detail the heroic story that happened to you..."

Hestia pulled the boy, directly entering the Hephaestus Familia's base, and on the way back to the room they happened to run into the Red-haired Goddess coming out of the Forge Room after finishing her forging.

"Hephaestus, listen to me, this child Broly..."

Hestia was just like a parent whose child did something glorious at school; upon meeting her close friend, she couldn't help but share it with her bestie Goddess.

"Eh, a heroic story? Broly, you don't mind if I listen in too?"

Hephaestus was quite interested; eavesdropping on the life stories of Lower World children is also an amusing thing.

Although Broly is not her Familia child, she couldn't resist her good relationship with Hestia — love the house and its crow — so Hephaestus came to regard this uncommonly talented Saiyan boy as half her own Familia child.

"I don't mind."

Broly shrugged his shoulders; the two Goddesses happily accompanied each other to the room arranged for Hestia, the three took their seats as host and guests, and listened to the boy's story of helping the Rabbit this afternoon.

At the start it was still a fairly normal heroic debut prelude, but by the time they heard Broly say he had turned around and escorted the three from the Soma Familia off to be sold on Pleasure Street, whether it was Hestia or Hephaestus, both their expressions became somewhat unmanageable.

"No way, Broly, you even went to Pleasure Street?"

"Mm, those three guys had no money."

"Ah, this isn't a matter of having money or not; how can someone your age go to Pleasure Street..."

Speaking to this point, Hestia paused, then reacted.

According to this world's circumstances, never mind going to Pleasure Street in broad daylight — even going at night isn't anything wrong.

"Wrong, that place has many bad women; they'll not only swindle your money, they'll deceive your feelings, and even want to do this and that excessive thing to your tender body..."

Hestia spoke in the tone of telling a horror story, seemingly wanting to scare her own Familia boy, to make him realize Pleasure Street is actually a terrifying place.
