Another Life As Older Brother

Chapter 76 - Demeter and Her Familia

With the transaction done with Goibniu Familia. I had nothing much to do and the day already turned dark. After that nothing much happened the next day except the girls kept bugging me to train them, which I did and I got my long day sleep.

After that nothing big happened except for Demeter and her familia were looking for us which I forgot. They visited Miach and his familia which then led to Naaza Erisuis, the only member of his familia told Bell when she met with him. Bell that didn't know what happen, told her our staying place.

"Demeter? What brought you here looking for me?" Hestia asked when looking at Demeter's worried face. "Hestia.. Actually, It's because I need to talk for a second." She said while smiling like usual.

"It's like this, Hestia-sama. I'm Persephone, from Demeter Familia. I'm sorry for bothering you with our personal problem but recently, we got attacked and the one that safe me said that we should meet with you, Hestia-sama." Persephone said slowly and politely toward Hestia.

"Ah! That's me. I forgot about this problem." I said while laying down while holding my bolster. "Is it really you? I mean you looked different then I thought.. too relaxed, perhaps?.." She said with eyes full of doubt.

I looked at her for a second before turning my body around ignoring the discussion. "Alright, it's not me. It's my brother right there." I said while pointing toward Bell that quickly widened his eyes when being pointed at. "Nii-san!!!" Bell shouted with a red face.

"I... I'm sorry..." Persephone quickly said. "Ufufu... It's rare for you to apologize, Persephone." Demeter said teasing her familia. "De.. Demeter-sama!!!" Persophone shouted and looked toward me that already turn my body about to sleep again.

"It's all right. No need to apologize. I'm the one that should be apologizing for ruining your expectations." I said with my hand gesture telling her that it's all right.

"Fufu... You not only ruining it but blowing it to smithereens." Demeter said and Persephone quickly tried to cover her mouth "Demeter-sama!!" she shouted while doing it.

"Wait for a second, so what is actually happen!? Also, Ageas!! Stop sleeping all day!!!" Hestia shouted. "Nnnngg!! I'm sleepy, either way. Shouldn't today the day that you sign the paper with Apollo-sama?" I said toward Hestia which made her freeze.

"Aaaahhh!!!!!..... Demeter.. I'm sorry, I will be back soon. Bell-kun!!, Come with me!!" Hestia shouted before running with her top speed outside toward Tower of Babel.

After Hestia and Bell went out, I started getting up. "You really are one scary Goddess, Demeter-sama." I said while looking toward the said Goddess that looked at me with a smile.

Inside the room, now only me, Demeter, and Persephone. The other familia member is all outside in another room. "I don't know what you mean, Ageas-san." She said while keep smiling. "You deliberately avoid the conversation in front of Hestia-sama. Which meant that you had your suspicion on someone. Perhaps a God?." I said while glaring at both of them.

"Demeter...-sama?" Persephone said slowly while looking at her Goddess. "Ufufu... You also looked more mysterious.. Is something going to happen?" She said to me.

We stare at each other for a while before I stopped my gaze and chuckle lightly. "Indeed, I had something that I need to do but be at ease. It had nothing to do with your familia." I said assuring her.

I started walking toward the door passing both her and Persephone. "Rest assured, all of you can stay here. We already reserved more room, for all of you to stay. Bache will look after the inn, so please stay inside just to be safe. I promise about it and I will keep it standing." I said before leaving them and close the door.

Inside the room, Demeter found a close bed to take a sit on. "Huf~, It's really tiring." She said while slumped down on the bed that Hestia used.

"Demeter-sama, Is he?" Persephone started doubting her decision for asking help. Demeter quickly shook her head "No.. This time, you really found the right guy for help.. but still, the way I looked at him. He still had a glint of murderous gaze. He might do something to Apollo Familia, tonight." Demeter said while connecting every piece together.

"Demeter-sama, is that even possible?" Persephone asked her Goddess. Demeter shook her head for the second time to Persephone "I don't know if it's inside Orario but it's a whole different story outside Orario.".

"I would say to keep your guard high but looking at your expression and your reaction earlier. Looked like my words won't reach you anymore. Ufufufu..." Demeter said while covering her lips.

"Demeter-sama!! I told you, don't say that in front of him!!... but... I'm sorry.. Indeed, I said too much and trusting him too much.." Persephone said after a slight pause.

"Ufufu... I couldn't help it. You used to behave boyish, after all. About the latter, I think because you trust him that much that he decided to help us easily." Demeter said.

----------------------------

Leaving Demeter and Persephone to chat inside the room, I went to my room and told Bache about it. She nodded and walked outside doing her thing that I don't even know.

"Ageas-dono..." Mikoto called me while walking beside Haruhime. "Hmm? What is it, Mikoto-san?" I asked her while quickly turned my head.

"Is the discussion end well?" She asked since she's among the person that knew that Hestia is having a discussion with Demeter.

"No... Hestia had some appointment and went there first." I said while shaking my head. "Emmm.. Are you gonna go out, Ageas-dono?" She asked.

"I'm afraid, Yes. I will be going outside. Is there anything you need from me?" I asked her. "Hmmm... I actually want to thank you for saving Haruhime-san... and... I want to show you a great bathhouse in Orario!!" She said while getting pumped at the end of the sentence.

"You... really like bathing aren't you??" I asked while looking at her weirdly but she still smiling vigorously at me. "I would have to decline this time." I said while waving at her.

"It's okay, Ageas-dono. We still have much time together." She said with a positive tone. "I.. I also wish to experience it." Haruhime said with a blush.

"Hah~.. Alright, Next time. Okay, Haruhime?" I said while patting her head. She nodded and looked at me with a smile.

"Then.. I'm off..." I said while saying goodbye to everyone before wearing my cloak outside the inn and disappeared from everyone's sight.
