Apartment!
The moment Ayato entered,
Utaha, like a cat catching a scent, immediately pounced on him.
She had been working like a horse lately.
She needed a proper reward.
But soon, she noticed Athena following behind Ayato.
Her body stiffened slightly.
'Good grief!'
'A new servant?'
'Where had he found this one?'
Stare… xN
At the same time, several gazes fell on Athena.
Everyone couldn't help but murmur.
"Wasn't this woman too unfair?"
They were all rare beauties, but looking at Athena, they felt a bit insecure.
Because Athena was too perfect.
She gave the same feeling as Gabriel.
Thinking this, everyone's hearts skipped a beat.
'Master... hadn't recruited another legendary figure as a servant, had he?'
Sensing the women's gazes, Athena smiled, and then glanced at Ayato from the corner of her eye.
'These must all be his servants, right?'
'Considering his wishes, it was truly an aptly named harem.'
Just then, Utaha had snapped back to reality.
Regardless,
She had already started the motion.
If she did nothing, it would be very awkward.
She quickly stepped forward, looked up at Ayato, and said with an expression, "Master, the power of blessing needs replenishing..."
"Okay!"
Facing a servant's reasonable request, Ayato never refused.
A moment later,
Utaha's breathing grew heavier, her eyes dazed.
Ayato released Utaha. Just as he was about to say something, he saw Xenovia had already come up.
Like a kitten, she looked up at him pitifully.
"King, my magic power is also running low..."
Xenovia said solemnly.
Scrape!
At the same time,
The sound of chairs moving rang out one after another.
Seeing the hidden geniuses were taking action, the others couldn't sit still anymore.
'Th-Th-Th-This...'
Athena's beautiful eyes widened, her face full of shock.
Even after going through the baptism with Rias,
Being hit with this intensity so directly was still too much for her.
Gabriel came up, her face red as she looked in Ayato's direction. "It's really nothing. You'll get used to it."
'This kind of thing happened often?'
Athena's eyelids twitched.
'Good heavens, what kind of person's wife had I become?'
Although Ayato had been honest about his desires,
And she had been prepared, it seemed to be getting more and more extreme.
Athena asked instinctively, "Are these all of his servants?"
"No, just a portion."
Athena: "..."
Fine, she had still underestimated him.
Seeing Athena's silence, Gabriel explained kindly, "Actually, there aren't that many more. In Fuyuki City..."
Listening,
Athena felt a throbbing in her temples.
'Good grief!'
'This husband of mine was truly versatile.'
'He had even created a harem in another world.'
After finishing, Gabriel asked curiously, "Who are you? You seem to have the aura of a Heretic God."
"I am Athena."
The moment these words were spoken, the entire room fell silent.
Even Irina, who had just finished replenishing, instantly came to her senses and looked at Athena.
The expressions of all the women became complicated.
'Athena?'
'The Queen of the Divine Realm, known as the purest goddess?'
'A figure like that had been taken as a servant by Master?'
Ayato smiled. "As Athena said, everyone should get along well from now on."
Then, Ayato turned to look at Athena.
"..."
Athena was stunned.
'This look... seemed familiar.'
"Come to think of it, you haven't received my blessing yet, have you?"
Ayato leaned down and smiled. "Don't refuse. Although your strength doesn't need it, with my blessing, if you ever encounter danger, I'll be there in an instant."
With that, without waiting for Athena to refuse, Ayato began to fulfill his duty as a master.
"Mmnn..."
Athena's eyes instantly widened, her cheeks flushing pink.
But she didn't refuse. She just slowly closed her eyes.
She seemed to be getting more and more used to this taste....
Seeing this, Utaha's gaze sharpened.
She whispered, "This stray cat is not to be underestimated."
Erica agreed. "Indeed. Hard to believe she's that Athena."
Even Gabriel was surprised.
She didn't expect Athena to be this bold right after joining the servants.
Even she herself was still shy about receiving the blessing.
'If this continued, wouldn't I be completely outdone by the others?'
On the other side, Asia's expression grew tense.
'If this continued, wouldn't I be beaten to it again?'
Thinking this, she poked Xenovia and said pitifully, "Xenovia-sensei, you have to help me."
"Don't worry, leave it to me."
Hearing this, Xenovia immediately came to her senses and puffed out her chest. "I already have a foolproof plan."
"I'm counting on you."
Asia clenched her little pink fist, her face full of determination.
Just then, Ayato released Athena and gave her a head pat.
'Mm! The hair quality was very good, like silk.'
"Mmm..."
Athena's face flushed, a flicker of strangeness in her eyes. This feeling... was very special.
In her life, it was the first time she had been treated like this.
It was very comfortable.
She felt a desire to keep being stroked.
"Athena, come with me."
Ayato's voice brought her back to her senses.
"Is something the matter?"
"As the goddess of wisdom, you should have a lot of precious knowledge, right?"
"That's true. What about it?"
"Write it down. I have a use for it."
"Okay."
Hearing this, Athena didn't hesitate and followed Ayato upstairs.
"Th-This... This..."
Seeing this, Asia grew anxious.
'What was happening? Was I going to be beaten again?'
"Don't worry. Master also said it's just for learning some knowledge."
Irina comforted. "And she is Athena after all. Probably... maybe..."
As she spoke, she lost her confidence.
