Jokes aside, or perhaps not just jokes. After reporting his day's activities, Levi took out paper and pen from his inventory, dipped it in ink, and began writing Runes.
Like with Hephaestus, Hestia, being a goddess, sensed something as soon as he wrote the first symbol. She sat up with a serious and focused expression.
"Levi, what is this?"
"Runes, a type of magical script from another world that can be used to invoke magic and miracles. I acquired it this morning through some... investment," Levi explained as he continued his work. "While my main focus was on using Runes to resist allure, I also discovered some interesting combinations, such as..."
As he spoke, he wrote seven symbols on the first sheet of paper. Infusing it with magic, it formed a one-way soundproof barrier that covered their bedroom. Inside the barrier, sound could be transmitted between them, but it couldn't be heard from outside.On the contrary, the sounds from outside the barrier could easily be heard by those inside it.
"Now, we can speak normally."
Because Alysse and Gotouya Kaguya lived next door, the two had deliberately lowered their voices earlier.
Of course, the same was true for the other side of the wall.
Hestia had absolute trust in her lover, nodding in agreement but with a puzzled expression on her face. "So, why did you set up a barrier in the bedroom?"
Levi remained silent, his gaze growing darker.
"!!!"
Seeing the young man's demeanor, the twin-tailed goddess, no longer naive, immediately understood his true intentions.
"Are you crazy? Alysse and Gotouya are right next door!"
"With the barrier, they won't hear a thing."
Levi had spent nearly half a month in the dungeon and had been thoroughly teased by Hephaestus today. It was impossible for him to have no desires at all.
Originally, he held back because he wasn't shameless enough to perform such acts for others to hear.
But now, with the mastery of the nearly omnipotent runes...
As he spoke, he had already lifted his goddess, pressing most of her body against the wall.
Hestia's cheeks flushed red, her hands flailing against her follower. "No, don't do this, at least not against this wall."
On the other side of the wall, Alysse and Gotouya Kaguya were sleeping.
Levi chuckled ambiguously at her words. "You're already excited yourself."
"Shut up!"
...
After a night of intense activity, the accumulated pressure was thoroughly released.
As a result, the next day, Levi's previously tense spirit, due to being targeted by Freya, finally relaxed a bit.
The price, however, was that Hestia lay in bed all day, needing Levi to bring her meals to the bedside. Even the promise to update Alysse and Gotouya Kaguya's statuses was postponed by another day.
In the increasingly bold words of the twin-tailed goddess—if this continued, she would be 'sent back' to the heavens. If possible, Levi should quickly bring back a few more goddesses to take turns.
Being officially allowed to form a harem should have been a joyous thing.
And Levi, well, it would be a lie to say he wasn't happy.

But he didn't focus too much on this aspect.
After taking care of Hestia's breakfast, he took out the high-quality wine from the Demeter Familia and the fire wine from the Dionysus Familia, which he had bought on his way back yesterday, and sat in the bedroom, attempting to concoct a higher-grade ice-fire wine.
The process was not smooth.
Compared to the wheat beer produced by the Soma Familia, both the high-quality wine from the Demeter Familia and the fire wine from the Dionysus Familia were undoubtedly of higher quality.
This was evident just by looking at their prices.
However, when Levi entered the special state of cocktail mixing enhanced by 'mystery,' he found that the maximum concept points provided by the two fine wines were only 14 and 16, respectively.
The ice-fire wine made from the former only increased the capacity of fire elements in the drink, resulting in a final product whose star rating did not increase. Instead, the imbalance between ice and fire elements led to a significant decrease in the final body-strengthening effect.
As for the latter, by consuming 5 concept points each for 'Ice Element Capacity Increase·Blue' and 'Fire Element Capacity Increase·Blue,' it did indeed elevate the ice-fire wine to 5 stars. However, without the accompanying panacea that could heal all injuries except for severed limbs, even an adventurer with a blessing level of lv5 would likely have a brush with death.
It was only because Levi, with the 'Pure Water Blessing Cocktail Technique,' could selectively immunize against all water-related abnormal states that he dared to taste a small sip.
Even so, he held the panacea ready to drink at any moment.
The incomplete 5-star ice-fire wine was indeed potent.
After drinking just 10ml, Levi truly experienced what Alysse and Gotouya Kaguya felt the previous night.
For a full half-hour, sweat poured from his body without stopping.
Of course, as the price for enduring the torturous ice-fire reaction, his five-dimensional ability values, which had been gradually stagnating, finally saw a surge.
Strength, endurance, dexterity, and agility each increased by 22 points, while magic saw an exaggerated increase of 178 points, even without the 'Magic Furnace Core' bonus.
By the seventh day back on the surface, just before the war game was set to begin, with the incomplete 5-star ice-fire wine gradually losing its effect, Levi's attributes, except for magic, had all reached sss1572, with magic maxed out at sss1999!
'The remaining points can be maxed out with ability value exchange tickets.'
Thinking this, Levi opened the Genshin Impact card pool, first spending 60,000 (lv1 pool) to draw a 3-star Vision, then successively consuming 1.4 million (lv2 pool), 13 million (lv3 pool), and 70 million (lv4 pool) Faris.
Through the line of 4-star Golden Purple Throne (Keqing) → 5-star Celestial Fox Throne (Yae Miko) → 6-star Worldly Throne (Raiden Shogun), he successfully transformed the newly acquired Vision into:
[Vision (Worldly Throne·1 Constellation Star Blessing)·6-star](Image! Image! Image!)
The constellations within the Vision correspond to 4-star for ordinary Vision holders, 5-star for Archon followers, and 6-star for Archon-level power.
Originally, Levi intended to choose the constellation of the Geo Archon, Zhongli.
This Geo King, who had lived for over 6,000 years, mastered a vast array of skills.
If he could resonate with Zhongli's constellation later, it would undoubtedly make him immensely powerful and versatile.
However, now that he had learned the 'Primordial Runes (Incomplete),' the plan could be adjusted slightly, opting for a secondary target, namely the ruler of the Inazuma region in the Genshin Impact world, Raiden Shogun.
Though she was a god who 'ruled a great nation like cooking a small fish—not at all,' she was a tech-savvy woman.
Her martial skills were not much inferior to Zhongli's, and she also mastered puppet creation and elemental programming technology.
Perfect for expanding his skill set.
Of course, the 6-star weapon that came with the 'Worldly Throne' was another reason Levi chose it.
