Chapter 104: Only When the Net is Drawn Can One See Who the Real Hunter Is!
Leaving the "Hestia Familia's" abandoned church home, Hyakinthos didn't maintain his initial elegance.
The effeminately handsome young man's face was now filled with contortion.
He couldn't imagine that, having laid all the benefits before him, Liam would still refuse the proposal to join the Apollo Familia.
The Lord God had given him full authority to handle this matter.
As for the subsequent process, it was already well-practiced. In Orario, where the Ganesha Familia maintained public order.
They, of course, wouldn't cause trouble here.
"Arrange for some Familia members to keep an eye on this guy. After he heads into the Dungeon to explore, report the information to me as quickly as possible."
Hyakinthos's eyes were gloomy. Since a normal recruitment didn't make him want to join the Familia, then he would use some extreme methods.
Prevent him from adventuring in the Dungeon.
Make it so that Liam has no place to stand in Orario. Propose recruitment again. Whether he would join the Familia…
The result would be laid bare!
Following behind Hyakinthos was a female adventurer and commander with short red hair, Daphne Lauros.
She wore a white uniform short skirt and gray short boots.
Black over-the-knee socks perfectly outlined the curve of her thighs, with a slight sense of tightness at the cuffs. The young woman's appearance was pretty.
It was just that after hearing Hyakinthos's arrangement.
A hint of almost imperceptible resistance flowed from Daphne's eyes. Her fists clenched slightly, but in the end, she still nodded obediently.
It had touched upon her bad memories.
After all, when she joined the Apollo Familia, she had clearly refused at that time, and the other party had used this method to force her into submission.
"This kind of method again…"
Watching that figure depart, a hint of conflict flashed in Daphne's eyes. Through the brief contact with Liam just now.
Her impression was quite good. It was a pity it was a matter of his Familia's birth.
If it were any stronger god's Familia, the Apollo Familia would absolutely not make an enemy of them. And the upcoming turmoil…
She shook her head lightly, then said to her close friend, "Cassandra, let's go back first."
"Okay…"
Long, deep blue hair covered her eyes. Even her entire aura was filled with a gentle femininity. The young woman timidly nodded and followed.
It's just, for some reason… Deep in her heart, she always had an unknown premonition?
The best solution was, of course, to dig a pit for the Apollo Familia. As long as he waited for the other party to smoothly step into the trap, it would be a done deal.
This was currently just the prototype of the plan.
Proactively baiting the "Apollo Familia" to initiate a War Game, and then through legitimate means, possess all of the other Familia's resources!
Even if this matter were spoken aloud, it would be an absolutely fantastical tale.
Liam looked at Lili, whose face was full of anticipation, and didn't directly explain the reason, "You don't need to consider this matter for now."
"As long as the process goes smoothly, the matter of the Familia home will be settled soon."
"."
Looking up at Liam's relaxed face, the time they had spent together wasn't long, but Lili always had an ominous premonition in her heart.
The so-called "settling the matter of the Familia home"...
It couldn't be another matter that violated Orario's laws, could it?
She hesitated for a moment, finally looking up and explaining helplessly, "This morning when I went to report the results of the Familia expedition."
"The Guild's head, Royman... he asked me to help pass on a message."
"He hopes that in the future, you won't stir up any more incidents in Orario that disrupt stability, like the 'Soma Familia' one."
If this kind of thing really continued to happen, Lili didn't dare to imagine…
What a huge turmoil it would bring to Orario. While relaying this message, she carefully observed Liam's expression.
Seeing no change, the young woman breathed a slight sigh of relief.
"."
"Don't worry, the next actions... will absolutely conform to Orario's rules."
At least in this matter, Liam was still somewhat confident. The entire process was led by the Apollo Familia.
He was just in a passive position.
It seemed to touch upon bad memories, the frame-up on the night the Soma Familia was destroyed. The final result was indeed good, but the process was nerve-wracking.
Facing Lili's resentful gaze, Liam hesitated briefly, but still added, "Tonight's celebration banquet will be held as usual."
"Rest for a few days, wait for the weapon to be repaired, and then continue the Dungeon exploration."
"."
It wasn't until she received the next instructions that the young woman was finally completely relieved. Even if high-intensity Dungeon exploration was inevitably tedious.
It was in every way safer than having dangerous ideas!
It was just that this interruption from Liam had caused Lili's original idea of changing the Familia home to be completely dismissed.
"Maybe he wants to change to a bigger house?"
Regarding the current storm with the Apollo Familia, it had temporarily ended for now. At least during this period of rest in Orario.
He still didn't need to worry about safety issues.
The one who could truly cause an unexpected interlude was probably "Cassandra" from the other Familia.
Possessing the "The Croaking Prophetess" skill, a dream that foretold the future. Whether it would make the Apollo Familia vigilant.
This was also something Liam needed to consider. But as long as they launched a pursuit in the Dungeon, all suspense would be settled once and for all!
"I'm really looking forward to it."
A simple rest.
Gradually soothing the mental fatigue brought by the Dungeon training. When he woke up again, it was already close to dusk.
On the sofa not far away, Lili lay curled up, asleep, wrapped in her cloak.
Without the anxiety of Dungeon training, her sleep was exceptionally sweet. Continuously sensing movement in the basement room.
The young woman finally opened her eyes懵懂 (innocently/in a daze). It was just that when facing Liam's puzzled gaze.
Her fair and tender face was visibly covered by a blush. She could only brace herself and explain, "Um..."
"I have a reason for this, do you believe me?"
Although she still had Valis exchanged from the Familia expedition, these were not assets she could dispose of. Most importantly.
Continuing to rent in that dark alley always made Lili feel... the shadow cast by her years in the Soma Familia!
Leaning against the sofa, although it wasn't particularly soft.
She felt a special sense of security. Coupled with the fatigue from the Dungeon exploration, she gradually fell asleep on the sofa.
Then she remembered Liam's initial promise.
Feeling that their relationship should have improved appropriately, Lili blinked her eyes playfully and asked, "And you said."
"You could provide food and lodging..."
"I don't have many objections, but you have to ask for Lady Hestia's opinion." Looking towards the corner of the stairs.
The corner of Liam's mouth couldn't help but twitch.
He reminded her silently, "Normally speaking, this is where Lady Hestia sleeps at night."
"."
Hestia, having finished her work life at the Hephaestus weapon shop, was in a pretty good mood before returning to the Familia home.
Looking forward to the celebratory banquet with Liam.
There were many things worth celebrating, and many, many things she wanted to say to Liam. It was just that upon returning to the Familia home.
Before she could give her daily greeting.
Noticing the young woman, Liliruca, resting on the sofa, Hestia for a short moment felt as if the sky was about to collapse!!
