"Alright, then hurry up, don't keep Lady Freya waiting."
"Okay, I understand, Miss Helen. Please come in and wait for a moment."
"7
Helen did not refuse Broly's invitation to enter the Hearth.
"By the way, Miss Helen, have you eaten breakfast? If not, would you like to have some here?"
"I haven't eaten yet, and I don't plan to eat here, but if you need my help making breakfast, I can help."
Seeing the Saiyan boy busily preparing breakfast in the kitchen with a scarf around his neck, Helen refused to eat breakfast there, but rolled up her sleeves and went into the kitchen to help.
"Thank you so much."
Broly thanked her and handed over the task of baking the sandwich dough for breakfast to Helen, while he went to chop some vegetables for the morning.
Although it was the first time the two had worked together in the same kitchen, Seele's connection made their teamwork incredibly smooth.
While Broly was chopping the meat, Helen started preparing the marinade. While Broly went to get the oats to cook porridge, Helen poured water into a pot and started boiling it. She cracked an egg and fried another.
In less than twenty minutes, the two of them worked together seamlessly to prepare a breakfast enough for more than fifty people.
"Really not going to eat?"
"I won't eat it."
"Gurgle~"
Broly looked at the maid's growling belly, while Helen's face remained tense, though her cheeks began to turn red.
"You should eat something; you deserve credit for this breakfast too."
This time, Helen did not refuse again.
Broly went to the room, and when he returned, the maid had already filled her stomach with a sandwich and a bowl of oatmeal and was washing the dishes she had used.
"Is this enough for you?"
"I'm not like you, I'm not a big eater."
"That's true, here you go."
"What is this?"
Helen looked at the box handed to her, wiped her wet hands on her maid's skirt, and looked at the Saiyan boy with a questioning gaze.
"It's a gift, of course. I bought some jewelry in a city that's famous for its silver ornaments. I was planning to give it to you last night, but you took the day off and didn't go to work at the Lady of Abundance's place."
Helen remained silent for a while before saying, "You should take this gift to Lady Freya, after all, she is the real Miss Hill."
"What are you talking about? This is for the Hill that Miss Helen is playing. As for the Hill that Lady Freya is playing, I naturally didn't forget to buy her a gift either."
As Broly spoke, he shook the box in his other hand.
"Okay, thank you."
After learning that Broly had also bought a gift for Freya, Helen finally accepted the gift box handed to her by the boy in front of her.
"Can I open it and take a look now?"
"It's already been given to you, so of course you can have it."
Helen nodded and opened the exquisite wooden box in her hand. A set of classic and elegant silver jewelry immediately came into view.
This set of silver jewelry seems to have stepped out of an ancient poem, radiating a cool yet warm luster. Intricate floral patterns meander and unfold on the silver surface, and the delicate engraving makes the veins of the petals and the serrations of the leaves clearly visible.
Clearly, each piece was meticulously crafted by silversmiths.
"These are elfin-style silver ornaments. I think they're quite pretty, but I don't know if you'll like them."
Helen didn't reply, but simply put on the silver jewelry from the box and looked at herself in the mirror that came with the wooden box.
My face was a bit redder than usual, and with the silver jewelry, I looked better in the mirror than when I didn't dress up much.
"Mine are classic elven-style silver ornaments, what about Lady Freya's?"
"Miss Helen, would you like to take a look?"
"As Lady Freya's maid, it is only natural that I must check whether the gift you wish to give to Lady Freya will win her favor."
With the maid nodding in approval, Broly opened another wooden box in his hand, which contained a set of luxurious silver ornaments.
All the patterns look like a master engraver showing off his skills, highlighting the attitude of someone who has plenty of money and can do whatever he wants. This was the recommendation he received from the silversmith when he consulted him about the kind of person he was giving the gift to.
"A queen-like goddess naturally needs luxurious silver jewelry to make her appear even more unattainable and incomparably noble."
"Yes, that's what the silversmith who gave me the suggestion said. I wonder if Lady Freya will like this gift?"
"Of course she'll love it. Just by showing up, even if you bring her a wildflower you picked by the roadside, Lady Freya would be delighted."
More than a month apart meant more than a month of longing. As Freya's stand-in, Helen could feel the longing her goddess felt for the Saiyan boy.
"Hmm, this set of silver jewelry is barely worthy of Lady Freya."
"That's wonderful. Without further ado, let's go to Lady Freya's place and give her this gift."
"Aren't you going to eat breakfast first?"
"Didn't you say you didn't want me to keep Lady Freya waiting?"
"But you can't go hungry either. Also, you need to make some more arrangements. You've been away from Orario for so long without a word. When you go to see Lady Freya again, you have to show the utmost sincerity."
After having breakfast, Broly was instructed by Helen to take a shower and then changed into the outfit that Helen had picked out for him in his room.
It was fortunate that Broly tidied up the room last night; otherwise, the maidservant serving the goddess would probably have seen a room in complete disarray.
Broly left a note on the table telling him to go find Freya, then left the Hearth House and followed Helen to Freya's Spring Clan's residence.
Upon seeing Freya, the beautiful goddess jogged over, slowing her pace as she approached, and looked at him with gentle, affectionate eyes.
"Broly, welcome back to Orario."
Upon seeing the person she had been longing for again, Freya's outburst of emotion seemed rather restrained, quite unlike the goddess of beauty who used to frequently display her beauty to the world.
After asking pointless questions like "Have you eaten?" and "I've already eaten," Broly presented the silver jewelry he had brought.
After seeing it, Freya indeed showed a joyful expression and immediately asked Helen to help her put on all the jewelry.
"Broly, are you free today?"
Freya, who had changed into a dress that better complemented her silver jewelry, suddenly asked this question.
"No plans for today, Lady Freya. Is there anything you need?"
"If you don't have any plans, would you like to accept my invitation and have another date with me?"
Freya said, paused, and then added.
"Of course, I won't force you. If you don't want to, then that's fine."
As soon as Freya finished speaking, Broly felt the maid beside her glare at him with unusually stern eyes, as if if he were to refuse the goddess, she would definitely reduce his happiness level by a large margin after he became Hill.
"I won't force you, but I need to let everyone at the Hearth House know."
"I'll go and inform those people for you. You can stay here and accompany Lady Freya on her date."
Helen promptly accepted the assignment, determined not to let Broly waste any of their date time.
. . .
"Does Lady Freya have anywhere to go?"
"Hmm, let me think... How about we go back and repeat the places we went and the things we did on our first date?"
Broly did not refuse Freya's suggestion and cooperated with the goddess to repeat the things they had done on their first date.
"It's amazing how the same people, doing similar things, give me a completely different feeling."
As evening approached, Freya, having finished dancing at Hero Bridge, immediately shared her thoughts on her day of dating.
"Although it's the same person doing similar things, I've grown taller now, so naturally the dating experience I gave to Lady Freya when I was shorter is different."
"That's true. Before, on our dates, I felt more like I was taking care of a child. But now, I can hold your arm, snuggle in your arms, and act like a proper date, even being affectionate with you."
As night fell, they returned hand in hand to Freya's Spring Clan settlement. Just as Broly was about to see the goddess Freya off as she returned to her clan, Freya suddenly stopped.
"Hey, Broly, can I ask you a question?"
"What question is it, Lady Freya? Please feel free to ask."
The night sky was clear tonight, and the moon overhead was only slightly waning. The moonlight was bright, illuminating the street outside the battlefield.
Freya, bathed in moonlight as she turned around, wore shimmering silver jewelry that accentuated her beauty.
"Do you like Freya more, or Hill more?"
The goddess's demeanor changed with her words, transforming from an incomparably beautiful deity into an approachable tavern girl.
She looked at the Saiyan boy with expectant eyes, as if she wanted to get a definite answer from him, an answer that Broly answered almost without thinking or hesitation.
"I like you more, Miss Hill."
Upon hearing this, the goddess-like Hill blushed delicately.
"Is that so? This answer really didn't surprise me."
But after transforming back into her goddess form, Freya's blush faded away.
"Broly, come in with me. I have the answer to your question about meeting me."
Broly was somewhat confused, but he still followed Freya, who was in the form of a goddess, and once again stepped into the battle wilderness at night.
Unlike the bustling battlegrounds of the morning, the battlegrounds at night are quiet. Even the castle buildings further back, lit up with lights, appear somewhat serene, as if no one is there.
But in reality, it wasn't that no one was there; rather, the members of Freya's Familia, under the command of Vice-Captain Hedin, were giving their goddess and the Saiyan boy some alone time.
"Hedin, bring Helen over here."
Back in her room, Freya used the telepathic magic stone.
Not long after, Helen pushed open the door and entered.
Freya appeared to be changing clothes, and Broly was about to leave when she stopped him.
"Broly, stay here. I want you to witness all of this."
Broly stayed behind, watching Freya remove all her clothes from today's attire, and then watching Helen help her change into a pure white dress.
"Helen, do you remember when we first met?"
"Of course I remember, Lady Freya."
"You really surprised me back then, wanting to become a goddess like me."
"Please forgive me, I lacked reverence for you back then."
"It's good that there's no awe. It's because of meeting someone like you that I'm able to experience truly integrating into a child's life."
Ah, the days I spent as Hill in the tavern were like a wonderful, sweet dream to me.
Unfortunately, even the most beautiful dreams must eventually end.
"Lady Freya, you—"
Helen's words were silenced by Freya's fingers, which were pressed against her lips.
"Helen, although it was a transaction back then, I believe I've been kind to you all these years and owe you a debt of gratitude. I wonder if you're willing to repay that debt?"
"Lady Freya, I will do whatever you ask me to do, even if it means you want me to die right now."
"Ha, it's not that bad."
Freya chuckled softly.
"Well, you've served me when I change clothes for so many years, it's time for me to serve you."
As Freya spoke, she began to help Helen undress.
Her clothes fell off piece by piece, as if deliberately showing them to Broly, and she even pulled her long hair, which had been covering her chest, back behind her.
After displaying Helen's alabaster-white body, Freya began to dress her maid, putting on the very clothes she had taken off.
After dressing, the next step was to put on the silver ornaments. Only after everything was in place did Freya raise her hand to stroke the maid's cheek.
"Helen, are you ready to fulfill your childhood dream?"
"Lady Freya————"
"You children, when you achieve your wishes, you always have to pay a price. Are you also prepared to pay that price and repay my kindness?"
"Lady Freya, what are you doing?"
It wasn't until this moment that Broly couldn't help but ask.
"It's very simple. I'm separating the parts of you that you like from this body of mine."
Freya answered succinctly.
"Lady Freya, I'm ready, but are you really sure?"
Helen answered Freya's question, but also asked the goddess a question in return.
"Yes, I've made up my mind."
Freya rested her head on Helen's forehead, and a magic circle composed of numerous sacred characters appeared beneath their feet.
Divine power flowed and exchanged between the human and the god. Freya remained largely unchanged, but Helen's appearance gradually transformed into Hill's.
Freya, however, returned Helen's original name—Sylphova, and took back the name she had given her—Helen.
In addition, she also gave a portion of her divine power to the girl who became Hill.
"From this day forward, Helen, you will only be [Sylphlova], the maiden goddess who separated from my divine authority and was born in the lower realm. I will regard you as my daughter, and you must regard me as your mother."
The magical runes of the sacred script disappeared. Freya spoke these words to the girl who emanated a faint divine aura, then turned to the Saiyan boy, who seemed somewhat stunned by the scene before him, and said, "Broly, I wish to entrust my daughter, Hill, to you, but I don't know if you can guarantee her a lifetime of happiness?"
"Lady Freya, I will do my best."
"In that case, then————"
Freya led Hill to Broly and handed the tavern girl's hand to the Saiyan boy.
"Take Hill back to the Hearth, and then tell Hestia for me not to mistreat my daughter."
Helen became Hill, both physically and mentally, but she did not lose the emotions and memories she had as Helen. When Freya handed her over to Broly, she felt happy, but after hearing what followed, she also felt a little anxious.
"Lady Freya————"
"Um?"
"Mother, are you going to abandon me?"
"Silly child, how could I abandon you? But you are my daughter who came from here, and you can't disgrace me. You must occupy an important place in Broly's harem, right? And if you don't go back to the Hearth with Broly, how will you compete with the others and the other goddesses?"
Freya's actions answered Broly's desire to encounter a young girl: from this day forward, Hill would be his wife, ready to marry him at any time.
After seeing Hill and Broly off, Freya sat alone on the sofa in the room, pouring herself a glass of red wine.
"Knock knock knock————"
I don't know how much time passed before the knocking finally sounded.
"Come in."
After receiving permission, the white staff fairy went inside.
"Did Broly take Hill back to the Hearth?"
"They've already gone back. I personally watched Broly take her inside."
"That's good."
. . . .
Hedin remained silent for a while before cautiously suggesting, "Lady Freya, would you like me to help you find some children?"
"Why bother looking for some kids?"
"To help you start a new relationship or something —"
"Ha, this is how children from the lower realm heal from heartbreak, isn't it? Too bad, I'm not heartbroken."
"Um?
"6
"I have always been pursuing my destined partner because I have always been craving love that can fill the emptiness in my heart."
And I succeeded. Although I didn't give myself away completely, I did give away the part of myself that yearned for love.
"I'm no longer the immature, lovesick girl I used to be; I'm a fully mature goddess who has found the love in my heart!"
"Ah, Lady Freya, what do you mean by that?"
"From now on, you don't need to help me start new relationships anymore. I no longer pursue love that I've already won over. Now I want to focus on my career. I will put the energy I used to pursue my destined partner back into developing my family and caring for you children."
"F-Freya-sama~"
Hedin took off his glasses and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes.
Freya's words deeply moved him.
The goddess we see today is the one that the entire Freya Familia has always dreamed of seeing.
The next morning, the Battle Wilderness was busier than ever.
"You trash, unleash your full power and, following Lady Freya's divine will, strive to make our Familia the strongest Familia in the world!"
As Hedin finished speaking, others echoed his words, simply because Lady Freya was watching their efforts from the sidelines.
