Chapter 120: Roland's Favor
Hestia looked at Roland blankly, looking incredulous, but the other party's sincere words were absolutely not false.
Although her body was already nodding honestly, reason still restrained her.
"But there is only one person in my family, so I can't help you......"
Hestia lowered her eyes nervously and said with some uneasiness.
In the past, on the way to find her family, every time she made this step, she would encounter failure, so she looked into Roland's eyes with great anxiety.
"As a starting point for heroes, it is very appropriate, a lone hero and a god with nothing, I believe this will be a wonderful legend."
Looking at the dazed Hestia, Roland smiled helplessly.
"So, what is your reply?"
"I ...... I...... Of course I agreed, but please, please be my family! ”
Hestia, whose face was flushed, nodded like a rattle, and her two ponytails dangled from each other.
Because she was so excited, she blurted out what was in her heart.
It's over, it's the first time we've met, but it's like showing love, isn't this just like those amorous gods? I'm a famous virgin goddess in the heavenly realm, how can I fall in love with my own family...... No, this seems to be a common occurrence in the Nether.
"Then, the contract has been established, and from now on, the Hestia clan will lead the whole of Orali!"
In the presence of the gods, the Hestia clan and the legendary hero took the first step together.
——
After a while, led by Hestia, Roland came to a dilapidated bookstore, which, according to her own words, had long ago decided to give her favor for the first time.
She thinks that for her book lover, this is the perfect place to welcome the beginning.
The beginning of the legend should be chosen in this kind of place surrounded by many books.
After a brief greeting to the white-haired old man on the first floor, Roland and Esther followed into a room that smelled of aged wood.
Overstuffed bookcases occupy all four walls of the room, and there are piles of books in front of them.
Hestia, who didn't even have the money to buy books, often soaked in this library thanks to the kindness of the shopkeeper.
"Well, it's too late for you to regret it now, once you have the favor, even if you want to convert, it's not so easy to get out."
Hestia said seriously, "If you want to refuse, I won't blame you. ”
After leading Esther to a chair next to him and sitting down, Roland also looked at Hestia.
"Don't care, give me a favor, Hestia."
After the contractual relationship was confirmed, Roland changed the name of Hestia, and Hestia did not even notice this kind of behavior that was enough to make the other clan lords frown.
She just patted the chair next to her excitedly.
"Then let's begin, Roland, you take off the clothes of your upper body, and I will use the divine blood as a medium to inscribe sacred words on you, and after that, it will be your favor."
Roland skillfully took off his shirt and had just sat down in his chair when Hestia took out a box out of nowhere, took out a needle, and pricked his fingertips.
The crimson blood gently dripped on Roland's back, and the power that belonged to the gods began to appear.
Although it looks very similar to the stats and leveling up content that is common in online games, the favor is fundamentally different from it.
Favor is more of an introduction, channeling the past history and possibilities of the person who holds the favor, and turning it into a catalyst called experience points, speeding up the speed of becoming stronger.
It is not that having grace will necessarily lead to becoming strong, but that grace shortens the process that those who would otherwise become strong.
After Hestia's divine blood dripped on Roland's back, the pale blue light set off ripples in the air, and obscure and mysterious words slowly floated from the light, and continued to combine.
"Okay, then, as long as the sacred text is revealed, your ability value and potential will appear on it."
The sacred text will guide all the possibilities of the possessor's body, like a blank book, on which the path Roland has traveled, the accumulated experience and possibilities will be recorded.
Seeing this scene, Hestia nodded with satisfaction, and also looked at the words behind Roland expectantly, after all, it was the rumored sword hero, what kind of potential would he have?
But because of this, Hestia failed to notice the strange look on Roland's face at the moment.
In Roland's mind, a blank panel flashed before the sacred words.
There was nothing but the most basic stats, and whenever his consciousness touched those voids, it would easily leave traces.
Did you fill in the original favor panel by yourself?
Although the moment Hestia's divine blood was integrated into his body, the Thousand Wisdom from the Holy Lord began to analyze this unknown power and use it for his own use, but in the end, such a result was beyond Roland's expectations.
And it seems that because he has not yet made a decision, Hestia, who has bestowed favors on others for the first time, is also a little puzzled.
"Huh? Why hasn't it been revealed yet...... Am I doing something wrong? ”
Fill it in casually, the panels are all paper anyway.
Roland didn't hesitate any longer, and randomly checked a few of the most common abilities in the blank options.
With his thoughts, those mysterious sacred words finally formed a sequence of templates and presented them to Hestia.
And when she saw the ability value emerging behind Roland, Hestia blinked, revealing a very subtle expression.

The Wisdom of a Thousand -
Any magic below this level of wisdom can be learned, regardless of the prerequisites.
The embodiment of possibility-
Overdrive, every time you can reach the upper limit, you will get a stronger breakthrough.
Patrons
-
All options related to luck will always be directed to the most desirable outcome.
Hestia carefully scanned the words behind Roland, the basic ability and level are naturally needless to say, and the same is true of magic, in this world, this ability was originally a privilege exclusive to elves and goblins, and other races can only discover this possibility through favor.
The maximum number of magic discovered by Grace is only three, and most people only have the possibility of obtaining one type of magic, which is very much in line with Roland's title of hero.
With such a large magic bar, even if you don't get magic, there will be clans rushing to accept this good seedling.
But in the words described in the three columns of skills, it completely stunned Hestia, skills will reflect a person's essence and desires, and it is also the easiest to be guided, and there is the possibility of change, Roland has more than one skill, which Hestia has long expected, but what these skills represent, but Hestia can no longer continue to keep calm.
She quickly picked up the parchment she had prepared, rubbing the words on it as she thought back to what the sacred words had just described.
The embodiment of the wisdom of a thousand who directly ignores the essence of the magic column, the embodiment of the possibility of ignoring the growth rate and upper limit of the greatest limit in grace, and the patron who seems to be destined to start a great cause and is embraced by luck.
Compared with other nether people, it is too cheating, cheating until this news is announced, compared to jealousy and unwillingness, there are probably people who are desperate enough to commit suicide.
These skills speak to the essence as if Roland was not a human, but a god.
Getting dressed casually, Roland, who had already known the result, just took the parchment casually and glanced at it.
"It's okay."
He gave a rather bland assessment.
"I can't describe this level in any way...... I've lived so long and never heard of this strange skill. ”
Hestia was a little impressed, but then she became serious.
"Do you want me to help you lock your stats? Avoid exposing it later and causing a storm, this skill will be targeted by a lot of unnecessary people even if you have it as a hero. ”
"No, the person who can see this sacred text against my will probably does not exist in this world."
Roland stretched his body and said indifferently.
"And it doesn't matter if it's exposed."
If it's not closed, it's on?
Regardless of whether Roland Storm exposes his abilities or not, he is destined to attract a lot of scrutiny for his every move he has defeated Ace without receiving favors.
The conspirator, the careerist, as long as he is still active in Olari and wants to lead the era that belongs to the hero, it is impossible for this mixed city to stop tempting him.
"But are all the basic stats zero?"
Roland stared at the conspicuous number on the parchment and fell silent.
"It's a normal situation, and the favor is just a booster, not a panacea."
As if worried that Roland would not be happy about this, Hestia hurriedly explained.
"It's based on the power you currently have, and those numbers represent just proficiency, as if you've been blessed now and still don't feel like you're getting stronger all of a sudden, right?"
Hestia leaned closer to Roland and swiped her fingers over the numbers on the parchment.
"In fact, the so-called upgrade will become stronger is just the imagination of the children who have not received the favor, the cause and effect of the two is opposite, it is to become stronger will be upgraded, in the future, you will not have a clear feeling of becoming stronger, because in the process of you to exercise, those accumulation, ability, have been invisibly integrated into your instinct, into your arm and finger power."
"Because you are born with a higher ceiling than other adventurers, even if your proficiency is only slightly improved, you will feel that there is a huge gap between you and your previous self, and this is because the power in your body that still does not belong to you is mastered."
Speaking of which, Hestia was a little smug.
"The role of our gods is to allow you to see where you are gifted and to guide you to make up for your weaknesses."
To improve which ability value, you have to make relevant exercises in this area, to attack, to use mana, to run, these experiences will be multiplied back to the owner with the promotion of blessings.
The full value of each stage is 99, from I to S, there are a total of ten stages, the closer to the upper limit, the slower the growth, but for most people, when they reach D, it basically means that their potential has reached the upper limit, and the rest of the growth is the talent and talent in this area.
After all attributes reach d, the basic requirements for upgrading are met.
"How is it, Roland-kun, are you disappointed in Enhui?"
Hestia subconsciously pasted it, causing Roland's arm to fall into a softness.
"No, I think it's a good thing."
For Roland now, the favor couldn't be more suitable, and he has already felt the power in his body change and began to become more balanced.
Because of being held by Hestia, Roland's hands and feet couldn't move too much, but he still stood up as much as he could, and handed over his other arm to Esther, who also took the initiative to stand up and silently hugged him.
"Hmm......"
Seeing Esther attached to Roland's body, Hestia suddenly became angry, on the one hand, because Esther's contract was concluded earlier than her, and on the other hand, because as a god who is very sensitive to emotions, she can feel that Esther has quite deep feelings for Roland.
This is no longer the attachment of ordinary immortals to their masters, but something that needs to be more vigilant.
This is the evil way! How can fairies fall in love with humans, they can't even have children! Wait, the gods seem to be ......
Just as Hestia was lost in thought, Roland suddenly raised his head.
"Speaking of which, grace is essentially a kind of divine magic."
"Huh? Yes......"
Hestia said with some puzzlement: "Although it is essentially a gift to the people of the Netherworld, this is actually a god's technique, so it will be exactly the same, after the conversion, the divine blood of other gods can also be updated." ”
"So, isn't the key to favor not in the user, but in the nature of the technique and power?"
Roland nodded clearly, and his heart moved, and the power from his essence flashed behind him.
The next moment, a new information panel appeared in front of his eyes.
Mana I (6)
Sure enough, the favor is essentially just a technique, which is almost incomprehensible to humans, but it is still far from the upper limit of the Holy Lord's former wisdom, although the magic has forgotten a lot, but he is genuine as a demon wizard representing the upper limit of the world.
This technique has been integrated into the body, and even the panel, and even self-renewal can be completed by Roland without relying on Hestia, which is the best proof.
So, if you were a little more daring and give your favor to others, would it be possible?
Although Roland does not have divine blood, he has a substitute that is definitely not inferior to divine blood, the desire from human evil, the demonic energy of fire, are all forces with similar nature, or even superior.
Even the noble Heroic Soul will be distorted and reversed by this power, so those adventurers must not be able to resist this malice.
The corners of Roland's mouth gradually opened, revealing a happy smile.
If this is the case, the prototype of a new family is just around the corner.
Belong to the family of the Holy Lord.
