Established Pinnacle: The Enigma

Afterall, she was the one that took care of them ever since their parents left them. She never complained no did she ever make things tough for them. Instead, they dragged her down.

Instead of becoming the strongest main god or even a supreme, she ended up falling behind the other twenty nine gods because of taking care of them. She also ended becoming a teacher to make things easier for his older sister.

Unfortunately his sister left them just like his parents. But Hestia still did not lose her job or say anything. She barely blamed them at all and always instilled the thought that the was a reason behind everything.

Because of her, Enigma and his sisters did not resent their parents nor their older sister. Instead, they lived life normally just like any other godlin.

In fact, what was terrifying was that, all of them, were quite sure that leaving was the only path if they continued growing stronger.

They didn't know why, or how that was the case, but a feeling affirmed that. Grandfather, father, mother, and now sister, who next, him?

Another thing to add, Enigma was also the most relaxed around this senior of his as well. She probably knew him like nobody else, even more than his younger sisters.

"Who told them that marriage would bind me to this place? Plus aren't they afraid that this would be the reason I run away? They are literally forcing me into this." Enigma was walking up and down as he let out his thoughts that he could not say infront of Mystica.

"Hmm~" Hestia lightly hummed as she flipped the book she read to the next page. Her leg was crossed over the other, and her expression focused.

She clearly wasn't listening to him. It's been a while Enigma was complaining, and knowing him, he was not going anywhere with his complaints at all.

"Actually, I don't mind." Enigma stopped and said all of a sudden. See what she meant? Hestia rolled her eyes at his words subtly, afraid that he would catch on, and nag on her.

To him, it was just binding. Plus, if he were to refuse, won't their targets be his little sisters then? That was why, after thinking for a bit, it was not bad for him to be arranged a marriage instead of his sisters.

"But they better not bring this bullshit of theirs into Mystica and Misty's lives. As for me, I can just play it off until I get strong enough. By then, whether I leave or not will depend on me." But he still had to say it nonetheless, to relieve his stress.

"Hmm~" Hestia continued to hum.

"Are you even listening?" Enigma couldn't help but twitch the corner of his eye when he saw this. This senior was just too brazen around him, luckily she was not half naked or completely naked this time around. Which saved him a lot of nanning.

"If you feel like it, you can use this place to learn your divine arts. I won't be helping though, so tough luck. And it's not like you don't know who the fiancee is." She responded while pointing her finger toward the open space in front of her, where a sole dummy stood by itself.

She then dropped a bombshell just as casually before returning to her book. Enigma failed to catch up on her last statement as he was looking at the training dummy. But a moment later, he reflexively turned to look at her...

"Why are you speaking as if you're sure that I'm getting a fiancee?" And asked with squinted eyes. Hestia did not reply to his question and instead continued flipping through the book in her hand.

"...."

Slowly at that...

"...."

But a moment later, she sighed, as if she could not bare the intensity of his glare that seemed like it wanted to devour her. She opened her mouth, her eyes still on the book and said,

"There will send you to a unique world of a thousand races and ten millions of gods next week. There will be 12 A-teams including the other eight similar worlds, each team with twelve members. Meaning that if each Unique World had 12 teams, there will be almost 144 true gods per world.

"If I'm sure, the elves there are docile creatures that love mother nature but tend to be egoistic in front of other races. But for a god like you, they'd surely respect you. Humans are the simpliest yet most intelligent there and the most greediest too.

"As long as you bring them benefit, then you can get a few of them under you. That means that--" As Hestia continued to explain, Enigma couldn't help but look at her in confusion. Seeing that she was not stopping, he immediately cut her off.

"Wait wait wait, why are telling me all of this? Isnt this straight up cheating?" He frowned as he asked.

He was not a good samaritan nor a person who was not opportunistic, cheat? He would do so if it benefits him or doesn't necessarily bring trouble to his family. Or himself.

But if giving him information about the trials would make her lose her position, let alone her job, then he didn't need it at all!! When it comes to family, he was not a risk-taker.

"Do you have parents?" Hestia finally looked up at him and casually asked. It then clicked in his mind that perhaps everyone already got heads up from their parents already, except him. Since he, you know....

"Please continue aunt Tia." Enigma immediately disregarded his thoughts as he respectfully and obediently sat infront of her, like a very good boy.

"Good boy." Hestia patted his head and returned to reading her book. "That is all." And said without much expression.

"Is that it? You were clearly about to say something before I cut you off." Enigma looked up at her in skepticism and a wronged expression.

"Yeah, you cut me off, the conversation ends there. If you want to know more, find the other half of my words that you cut off." She casually said, her words dealing a critical hit on him.

"...."

"Those divine arts will not practice themselves you know." She also added yet another fact-punch, luckily this time around, instead of dealing damage, it brought him back to reality.

"Oh? Oh, yeah. Thank you senior." He bowed and hurried off towards the stage not far away. Hestia peeked at him by the corner of her eye, then curled her lips up, barely audible words left her mouth "Silly child, auntie has a surprise for you from now on."

Even a god has his limits. Enigma failed to catch on to her words as he was diligently reading through the first page of the small booklet she had given him earlier today.

Hestia went back to reading her book, ignoring Enigma. Being a Mystique, she expected him to at least learn fifteen of the arts by the end of the week, just like his older sister.

But unfortunately for her, she had raised a monster. It did not take long, less than an hour before Enigma raised his arm towards the dummy.

Otherworldly energy converged at the center of his palm, it began twisting and forming into grotesque shapes that even he felt were unsightly. But due to his will and effort of wanting to impress Hestia, he put more and more focus into the energy.

Hours later, without breaking his focus, Enigma managed to transform the unsightly energy in his hand into a small javelin, revolving around his hand, looking a bit rough though.

"Hehe, divine force manipulation. Hey hey, look at this aunt Tia!! Senior, senior, se...nior?" The excited Enigma had his excitement doused as he saw Hestia not impressed even one bit.

But instead of being depressed, he sat down cross legged and swore that he would perfect his control over this art, then learn the other arts and also perfect them.

If she wants perfection, he will give her perfection!! If she wants a strong nephew, she will get a strong nephew!! I'll show her!! I'll definitely impress her!!

He thought.

But, beknowest to him, Hestia was actually impressed. It was just that she was at a crucial point of her story right now, so she couldn't show her approval.

An she did not want his ego to infatuate. But that didnt last long, one had priorities, of course, but even then, things happen that disrupt one's priorities onto other priorities.

This was because, in a little over a day...

"Divine Force Manipulation, Divine Empowerment, Sacrifice Empowerment, Divine Presence, Enhancement, God-Barrier Protection, Elemental Resistance... my lord, Netzah above, what the hell is this? What are you showing me?"

The little freak, due to being blinded by effort, ended up creating history right in front of his senior. And this was just the first day even.

One had to know, cultivating a single Divine Art was already hard enough, and doing so within just a single day, was way too illogical.
