Chapter 30: Persuasion.

Chapter 30: Persuasion.

I arrived at the church and started to hear some voices. It was Hestia and Bell. I didn't know how long I had been out, but I think I had stayed inside the dungeon the whole day yesterday since it was morning.

While inside, I didn't even realize that so much time had passed.

"Urg~~" With my hand on my waist, I opened the door. As soon as I entered, I heard some quick footsteps coming toward me. It was Bell. "Goddess, he's here, but he looks pretty injured!" He moved closer and let me lean on his shoulder.

"Thank you." I smiled at Bell, and then we walked to the living room.

"Where is he?!" Hestia then came running from the bedroom and arrived in the living room.

"He's here. I helped him lie down on the couch." Bell had taken my knife and also removed my shoes. Even though my clothes were dirty, he didn't mind laying me on the clean couch. Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

"How did you hurt yourself so badly? You risked too much, didn't you?!" I could see the concern in Hestia's eyes.

"I overdid it a little, that's all."

"Here, take this." Hestia brought a glass to my mouth. After drinking the liquid, which was not very tasty, I began to feel the pain gradually diminishing. But I had lost a lot of blood. I felt dizzy.

"Rest here for a while; I'll get you something to eat. You've lost a lot of blood; you won't recover today." Bell had a serious look on his face. After I thanked him, he ran out of the church.

"You idiot, why did you take such a risk?"

"I thought I could make it to the 18th floor."

"We talked about it before you went. I said it was dangerous. You are still at level 1, and your basic abilities are not high. What did you expect was going to happen?!" Was I getting a sermon?

"I thought that with my skills, I could do it."

"Haaa~~ You need to control yourself and be more careful about your safety. How do you think Bell and I will feel if you end up dying inside the dungeon? We're from the same familia!"

"I see. I'm sorry about that."

"..." Hestia gave a small smile. Then she stood up ( She had sat down on the couch where I was lying ). "Now get plenty of rest. I'll leave to update your falna tomorrow, all right?" She said in her usual animated tone.

"Okay." I then closed my eyes and fast asleep.

"Luan?" As I walked, I heard someone calling me.

"Tiona?" I looked at her and smiled. This was a great opportunity.

"What are you doing here? Did you happen to be interested in the food?" I was in the same place I had discovered when I followed Tiona some time ago. The food looked delicious, so I decided to try it.

Meet Tiona was not my goal, but I had to take advantage of this situation.

"I heard the food here is very good, so I decided to try it."

"I see. May I sit with you? I'll also order something to eat."

"Sure." With a smile, I said that to her. Tiona then sat down, and the "bartender" attended her. After a few more minutes, my food arrived. It was spaghetti with tomato sauce and meatballs.

I could see that Tiona was drooling.

"Would you like some?"

"No need, my food is almost ready."

"No problem, you can eat." I smiled at Tiona, and she looked into my eyes. At the same time, I activated my ability and Persuasion. When I activated it, I heard a message say something in my head.

[ Tiona Hiryute is under the effect of your ability 'persuasion' ]

[ Your requests will be granted ]

'That simple?' I could feel my lips tightening. I felt like screaming and celebrating.

"Tiona, would you like to go out for a while with me so we can go somewhere interesting?" I said to her.

"Hm?" With her mouth full of noodles, Tiona tilted her head. After swallowing, she looked at me with a serious look. "What did you say?"
