Chapter 1778 God Vulcan's Pantheon: Lioness Goddess Sekhmet & Cat Goddess Bastet

?The bustling City of Sunhaven offered a plethora of activities and sights, with various businesses catering to a diverse clientele.

As noon approached, Eren, Reen, and Arman had already explored a substantial portion of the city. Aware that Arman would be hungry after serving as their tour guide, Eren and Reen decided to treat him to a nearby restaurant, a suggestion that had subtly originated from Arman himself.

The scrawny kid from the outskirts eagerly anticipated the visit to the restaurant, reassured by Eren's commitment to cover the expenses without deducting them from his compensation. This would be his first time entering such a lavish facility. As such, he couldn't contain his joy and started talking excitedly.

Located at a relatively less-crowded corner of Sunhaven, away from the bustling main street, was a charming fantasy restaurant known as Mystic Hearth.

This unassuming eatery, with its simple yet enchanting exterior, stood as a go-to spot for both locals and visitors seeking respite from the city's lively atmosphere.

The entrance was adorned with hanging vines and colorful crystals that softly shimmered in the sunlight, giving the place an elegant charm. As patrons stepped inside, they were greeted by the warm glow of mystical orbs suspended from the ceiling, casting a soft, ethereal light over the rustic wooden tables and chairs. nove(l)bi(n.)com

The aroma of herbs and spices wafted through the air, enticing guests to explore the diverse and imaginative menu. The culinary offerings at Mystic Hearth were a fusion of traditional mortal fare and magical ingredients, creating a unique gastronomic experience.

However, the delicacies with mana-enhanced ingredients in them were only reserved for the Practitioners to consume. As such, these delicacies weren't made in advance but prepared only after the Practitioners visited the place.

Dishes such as Glowing Ember Stew and Enchanted Blossom Salad promised not only delightful flavors but also a touch of magic in every bite. The only reason they were retained on the menu was because the Practitioners visiting the city as guests liked to order them.

The majority of the dishes on the menu were suitable for mortal consumption. The restaurant staff, dressed in simple yet elegant attire, moved with grace between the tables, delivering impeccable service.

The chosen ones partake in a symbolic ritual where they consume offerings associated with both goddesses. It's a source of great pride for the chosen mortals and their families to be devoted followers of these revered deities. We often—"

Cough. Cough. Cough.

Arman's words were momentarily interrupted as he choked on a mouthful of food, attempting to convey his thoughts while indulging in the appetizers.

"Hehe. Take it easy, Mr. tour guide," Reen chuckled, offering a soothing pat on Arman's back along with a glass of water. "The food and we aren't going anywhere. You can take your time," she reassured him, playfully ruffling his hair.

"Haha. My bad sister Reen," Arman laughed awkwardly, recovering from his cough. Despite the interruption, his appetite remained undeterred, and he promptly refocused on the delectable spread before him.

"Hmm. What more can you share about Goddess Sekhmet, Arman?" Eren inquired, observing Arman return to his usual eating pace.

"Hmm? Not much, I—" Arman replied, meeting Eren's gaze as he attempted to recall any information about the goddess. Suddenly, a realization struck him, bringing to mind an important detail about the sister deities.

"Wait. I just remembered. Big bro Eren, both of these sister goddesses are recognized as fire deities within the same pantheon. This pantheon, in turn, is said to be headed by the fire god Vulcan," Arman casually mentioned, attempting to multitask by stuffing more munchies into his mouth.

'Vulcan!'

Eren concealed any surprise on his face upon hearing the name of the fire god associated with Goddess Sekhmet and Goddess Bastet. Anfang's history, as revealed within Sansara World 1.0, quickly flashed through his mind.

'Could he be the same asshole Nira Nightshade mentioned?'
