My Upgrades Are Invincible

We have been basically hard stuck for the last few days at the twenty first floor due to two very simple reasons...

The damn Deadly Hornet's and there nest the Bloody Hive's have proven we simply aren't ready for experienced level three territory as the nests blockaded the twenty second to twenty fourth with how mind boggling dangerous, they were with the ability to violently explode and launch the equivalent of spiderman's web fluids making adventurers completely defenseless to the two-meter-tall hornets that would run you through with there bluntly named deadly stinger's.

Now we could actually do alright there but even Ryuu bluntly said if we suffered mind down trying to kill a swarm of the Deadly Hornet's we would all die except for her so we obediently stayed away from the wide spread floor bosses even though I knew we were going to have to power through at some point.

But to be honest within a week or two I will have gained a thousand stat points in each category, so they won't be as much of an issue at that point.

Freya smiled as she explained the reason for our frustrations. "Jake you are forgetting the dungeon requires more people the deeper you go." She helplessly shrugged "It will get to the point that you will be regularly clashing with literal armies of monsters, so not even half a dozen people sadly won't cut it once you hit the Deep Floors as not even Ottar could casually walk down to fight Udaeus as he would be exhausted from the trip and constant battles." Freya explained making me think deeply where we could get more people frankly A I could trust and B not hold us back.

Sadly, Takemikazuchi's Familia will be falling within those boundaries as they are likewise level 2s and I didnt want to make us basically there patrons with me making enchanted weapons and such for them at this point. Maybe when I level up again, we can start recruiting other Familia's for our expeditions.

As me and Freya were discussing tactics to do better in the dungeon Hestia likewise finished updating my Falna.

"You got a new magic Jake!" Hestia celebrated after seeing me grin at the description of the magic and then diminutive goddess dove into my arms as she giggled in excitement at my happy expression.

Hmm this will be good help to me but once again this magic would be best suited if we also had a dedicated mage... 'I wonder if it's possible for us to poach Riveria?' I couldn't help but think before that thought was dashed into pieces as I knew she was probably the one of the most loyal members to Loki even if the goddess loved to annoy the hell out of her.

"Hestia it may be time for you to look for new members as like I said previously, taking in people when your weaker allows you to meet more honest people whereas recruiting when your already strong is just people wanting you to make them strong." Freya advised Hestia who clearly had already heard this many times before.

Hestia Just covered her face up and rolled into a ball on the bed so we couldn't see her expression. "Ughhh but it's so hard when no one even knows about my Familia and it's not like when they ask about what we bring to the table, I can just answer. Oh, we have weapons, armor, and other gear even the gods can't make within this lower world..."

Admittedly that's a fair point...

Maybe we are looking at this the wrong way. "Wouldn't it be better for us to recruit newbies rather than experienced adventurers as they already are showing they are willing to leave there Familia's to maybe join ours who is to say others couldn't poach them?"

Both Goddess's snorted and Freya nudged me playfully. "Jake, you know all too well that new adventures can't keep up with you and the others." Well, damnit...

"So, we have to work with another Familia huh." I don't think Hestia could convince Hephaestus to allow us to adventure with her children especially with them being blacksmiths and not as combat focused and I don't know much of anyone else other than Loki who could be trusted to go in the dungeon with us as they already know about my abilities basically.

"Tomorrow, I plan on going to check with Loki and see where we stand at this point. Don't worry that contract is still in effect so she can't hurt me." I reassured Hestia seeing her frown.

"It's not just that Jake, did you already forget? The Denatus is tomorrow..." Freya chuckled seeing my flummoxed expression at forgetting the exact date of its arrival.

"Well in that case I can just talk to Finn and the other executive's seeing as you ladies will be gone for the night." They both agreed to spend the night there at Ganesha's massive mansion/hotel and I would pick them up in the morning as all deity's who join the Denatus are welcome to sleep off the massive amounts of food and alcohol they drink as no mortal is allowed within the building other than the servants and member of Ganesha's Familia.
