2 weeks of sabotaging
🕑 Added 2022-05-02 03:49:32 +0000 UTCPHEWWWWW!
Took you all long enough!
As soon as I post this one, I will post the next one, and tomorrow, I will have the next 2 ready.
I know I said I would have everything ready... But things happened...
Anyway, the continuation of Ishtar's small Arc and... What is that? T-T-T-Timeskip?!
It was about fucking time!
For those who aren't well aware, Silver leveled up in the third week of February, then the first week passed and the War game happened on March 1.
One week passed after that and now, two more weeks have passed, so it has been officially one month since he became Level 2!
I am pretty sure I am correct in this...
He is growing pretty quickly! In fact, he may be a bit quicker than when he was Level 1... Hum...
Well, let's see about that!
I hope you enjoy it! Things may seem a bit rushed, but I did it like this due to well, you'll see.
It would've simply been more of a slice of life than anything else. But if that is what you wish, tell me in the comments!

"URG!"
'Silver recovered his senses back in the brothel, he clenched his head in pain and took deep breaths to calm down.'
"Phew… Using some of these more complex Plasmids is starting to turn Viable, but it's still not something I should do in combat just like that."
"I feel as if my head is about to burst… Phew… Okay… Better now."
"Time for an overview of what I learned…"
I learned many things from this invasion, first, Freya.
'As Silver thought, he got up from his chair and closed the windows fully, he grabbed a cup of water and chugged it in as he recovered.'
'He also went to the bed and checked to see if the Amazon girl was still unconscious, but just to make sure, he fed her more of the drug he had made.'
Freya seems to be involved in all of this, how I don't know… Hestia also didn't seem to know, or perhaps, Loki didn't tell her anything, and that is problematic on its own…
I have no idea if I am capable of resisting her charm if she does approach me. And considering her beauty, it may seem tempting but I have no plans of becoming a fucktoy for her.
Normally, even if she forces me to join her Familia, it would only be a question of time until I outgrew her and fled on my own even if it meant killing her myself, however, I am not confident of lasting years next to such a succubus of a woman.
Nor am I interested in being scorned by society for killing a God…
Especially one that can alter my mind so easily.
Passing from Freya to Ishtar, compared to Freya, she is much more troublesome.
Freya and Ishtar are actually both very beautiful and smart, but Ishtar is a complete BITCH. That is the sole point between their fight, one has a 'pure', 'magnificent', 'majestic', and 'lovable' persona, while the other is a complete and utter mess of a woman that is petty, aggressive, ignorant, arrogant and stubborn.
In fact, I would even say Freya is like her, but she shows her own emotions in her own unique and refined way, and that is where her elegance comes from.
They should be both just as powerful as each other, but Freya ended up growing much stronger than Ishtar because she is… Well, elegant.
And now that Freya's connection to me has somehow escaped to Ishtar's ears, I have become her target.
"Sigh… This isn't really a problem per se, since I was planning on dealing with her one way or another, but it had to be now…"
And she decided to accelerate her own plans… The timeline is now fucked beyond comprehension.
She wants to clash with Freya within a month or two instead of a year or two, and she also plans to accelerate Haruhime's ritual… What a mess things have become.
Funny enough, she has a bigger chance of winning now than in the future…
In two years, Freya will gain multiple Level 6s and 5s while Ishtar literally gains 1 or 2 Level 4s and several dozen Level 3s. Even if you considered that all of them would be effectively one level higher due to the ritual, in no way does that compare to the Freya Familia at all…
Perhaps if you removed Ottar and the top executives…
"So the plan is…"
How do I achieve a point in which I can completely stop or crush the Ishtar Familia while also pulling Haruhime to my side in a natural way?...
"If I involve the Takemikazuchi Familia in this ordeal, they may not be able to help me per se, but they would be able to pull forth Haruhime's emotions and make this process easier."
This isn't really a solution, even if I kidnap her, things would only get messier, and soon enough, I would be affected. But it might indeed buy more time.
"Alas, it may put my Familia in danger, they are incapable of protecting themselves right now…"
'Silver suddenly had an idea.'
"What if I shift the blame to the Freya Familia?"
Wouldn't this be a totally big brain move?
Ishtar is already wary of her, and I am sure the reason why she is bringing this plan forward is because of her, that is why I am being targeted.
So if I just make it all look as if Freya was a masterful tactician that is 10 steps ahead of her… It would sound natural and make Ishtar even angrier, and perhaps make her ignore me completely, or become more aggressive towards me.
"But how do I make it believable?"
Also, this would make me enemies with all of them at once… This seems like a situation where I am escaping from a forest fire just to fall into a volcano…
"Should I just intercept the Killer stone?"
The main material to finish the ritual is the killer stone, so if it doesn't exist, Haruhime stays alive, and the rest doesn't matter to me. I could also just steal most of her funds and make the Familia collapse…
"This is a better idea."
A series of small yet impactful actions that would make Ishtar wary and delay her plan, if not outright scrap it, she may think it's Freya but there wouldn't be any proof… And even if Freya came to realize, she might not necessarily be angry… Or should I say, Ottar?
Freya would probably laugh at Ishtar's ignorance, but if she were to realize I was the accused behind it things may change…
And all of it will start with a bit of incrimination… Hehe.
"I just need to refine this a bit more."
'Smiling slightly, Silver turned around and left the room, some of the prostitutes looked at him with hot gazes but he ignored them all and left.'
'When the Amazon wakes up, her only memory will be of a strange liquid on her down parts, and once she talked with the other girls, she would only sigh in sadness for not remembering what seemed to be the night of her life.'
'She would then dream of this incredible man, hoping he would come back to knock her up once more…'
…
"YOU'RE FINALLY BACK?! WHERE WERE YOU!?"
'When Silver arrived back home he was welcomed by the heartwarming curses and bad words of Nicc, who had been here waiting for him for a few hours.'
'Hestia was at her side, gazing at Silver with a suspicious glare…'
'To be honest, Silver was so focused on his task that he had actually forgotten she was here, so when he saw her he almost laughed out loud.'
'But he kept his cool and apologized, and after a bit of discussion and a lot of apologizing, Nicc eventually joined the monthly training.'
'She was actually treated like a bigshot by the recruits since her stats were higher than most of them, so she quickly fit right in, especially with her Theoretical Dungeon knowledge, many of the girls would come to her daily during the study time.'
'Silver, on the other hand, focused entirely on sabotaging the Ishtar Familia.'
"I can get in and out whenever I want to acquire knowledge… I just need to formulate a plan…"
Sabotage money in and outflow… Forge information… Spreading false and critical information on the black market... And even incriminating a few people.
'Silver wasn't an insensible monster, he made sure to research the people he was incriminating to make sure they were on his bad moral side, so at the very least he wouldn't feel bad about having them be tortured by Ishtar…'
'As the days passed, he made sure to not cause too much of a commotion, since his plan would only fully start once the operation to capture him started.'
'His plan was obviously to not get captured, and he would imply someone leaked the news outside as he scaped, and this would make Ishtar pissed and even warier of her surroundings.'
'Adding in all of his smaller actions and sabotage operations, Ishtar would realize something was wrong and she would be forced to choose one of two actions.'
'First, continue with her plan hastily, or two, abandon the current plan, and wait for another opportunity in the distant future.'
'And hopefully, she would admit she was too hasty and would stop, or even better, Freya would learn of her plans and... To be honest, even if she learned, Freya would just laugh.'
'She would wait for Ishtar to move, corner her with her own plan, and only then she would deal her last strike...'
'Even if the plan had several holes, it was enough and not completely unbelievable.'
'Ishtar wouldn't be able to continue with her war preparations without funds anyway…'
'However, even after one week, they had yet to prepare a plan to ambush Silver, it seemed they were keen on researching a lot more about him, and he was fine with it, the longer they took the better it was for him.'
'Once the first week passed, Silver made sure to visit Haruhime one more time, surprising her greatly.'
'He talked a lot with her about what was a Hero for him, and shared with her many hero stories from his memory…'
"And what happened next?" Asked Haruhime as her tail moved behind her, showing her excitement
"Simple really, after defeating the Red Dragon, Shrek the Ogre, lived happily ever after with his princess. Although, that isn't the end of his story..."
'Haruhime seemed ecstatic to hear that,'
"I would like to visit Duloc one day…"
'Silver just smiled awkwardly.'
She really believes my story huh… I wonder, perhaps Shrek is truly out there…
'The reason why he was telling her so many stories, some goofy and others more serious, was so she started to trust him and possibly slowly change over time, to have her believe she was worth something…'
'As for his stories… Even if they were spread, what would change?'
'His stories were a mix of fantastical events that would make sense in this world and a few modifications made by Silver himself, so at most, they would be considered made-up stories and not something else…'
'But for the sheltered Haruhime who knew nothing about the world, all of these stories were refreshing, they showed her a different view from the always happy and shiny hero stories she was used to reading.'
'Not all heroes are 100% good, most rise from the mud before becoming something that could leave a mark in history...'
"If even Shrek can live happily, I don't see why you can't." Said Silver as he left once again, leaving Haruhime alone
I feel terrible for saying this...
"..."
…
'Silver also went to the Dungeon a few times during this week, but his results were only meh.'
'He couldn't focus on hunting and fighting when such a big thing was happening behind the scenes, so he only continued to scout and make some money as he ran around the place.'
'Silver also wanted to talk with Hestia about this event, but he was sure she would either worry too much and not be able to relax anymore...'
'Or she would worry too much and just spill everything after having a drink somewhere.'
'So he was thinking of bringing this secret down with him until he got strong enough to admit being the one behind it, and to be honest, that wasn't so far away…'
'If he leveled up and got Harhuhime's help, he would be able to topple the entire Ishtar Familia on his own.'
"The only real problem in the Ishtar Familia is Phryne and Ishtar herself." Said Silver as he got up from his office chair in the Hearth Manor
"Ishtar Charm is a variable I cannot test, while Pryne is a strong Level 5 that barely knows how to fight... That is an understatement but it's true she is extremely stupid and that she relies mostly on her physical strength."
My current stats are nearing the limit of what a Level 3 would be able to have, if I raise my stats to its limits and Level up once, I would be able to take on everyone apart from her by myself.
And if I convince Haruhime, I could forcibly put Ishtar in her place... But this is all meaningless since I don't have time...
'Silver shook his head and went over to his plans...'
...
'During these turbulent days, Artemis came to visit a few times, and her favorite pastime was simply spending time with Silver, although she would join in the recruit training from time to time.'
'And as compared to Hestia, she was also much more daring...'
'Hestia would take glances at him and stay away most of the time, apart from the times when she would crawl onto his bed at night, but it was clear to Siver that she was restraining herself due to everything that was happening.'
'And he made sure he would reward her once all of this came to an end.'
'The first time Artemis visited, she invaded his office and snuggled with him until she was satisfied, the second time she once again invaded his office, and this time, she sat on his lap and snuggled him until she was satisfied.'
'Silver asked her if she was really okay with taking things this fast, so to make things clear, he asked her out on a date…'
'Even if he was in the middle of something very serious, he still had to continue with his normal life, or else everyone around him might worry.'
'Silver walked around the city, making sure to keep his guard up, but their small date ended pretty peacefully on the rooftop of a restaurant.'
'They had a rather good time, and that way, they managed to spend more time together and discuss their relationship a bit more… If there was anything to discuss…'
'Although, there was one big thing Silver kept himself from discussing… And that was Artemis chastity…'
'As a Goddess who presides over it, what would happen to her if she were to lose it?'
'Artemis herself seemed to be very embarrassed as well, acting as a young girl in love, since that was what she was, a 'young' lady in love…'
'Throughout their entire discussion, Silver made sure to keep a barrier of sound around them, he knew he was being investigated, and the last thing he wanted was for them to learn more than they should.'
'After all, Silver felt a weak glare on his back throughout his entire date…'
'He was happy that his romantic and social lives were progressing smoothly, but he simply can't focus on them too much due to the things happening around him...'
'That was what he was so intent on finishing this matter as fast as possible.'
'Silver tried to talk with Takemikazuchi but when it came to that, he simply couldn't think of an excuse to approach the man…'
'Perhaps in the future, but right now, they weren't fated to meet yet…'
'So in the end, he turned his back on them and went on with his own worries…'
"What do I want... I..."
'I wish to be saved... But please I... I cannot bear to see him fight for my sake!'
'Haruhime cried silently, wishing her Hero would just abandon her and seek his own, "Happy ending"...'
'She kept thinking about him, kneeling on the ground as she stared at the moon…'
'Hestia worried about her Familia as she looked at their training…'
'Artemis was thinking about herself, rolling on her bed cutely…'
'Ishtar was thinking about Freya relaxing on her bed next to a man…'
'Everyone had their own plans and worries, and like this, 2 weeks passed…'
