Chapter 231: Syr, Join Us.
After Liam and the others left the Orario City Ruins, the Freya Familia was disbanded.
All members of the Freya Familia would henceforth be unable to receive the Falna update from Goddess Freya again.
And all of the Freya Familia's assets, including Dungeon outputs, Valis, property deeds, land deeds, and a series of other industries were all taken over by the Hestia Familia.
Afterward, Liam distributed fifty percent of the Valis to all the participating god Familias.
To be able to defeat the Freya Familia this time, Liam and the others of the Hestia Familia had played a major role.
Of course, the other participating Familias also provided a very necessary role.
Consuming a portion of the Freya Familia's dependants' stamina was the achievement of the other members of this faction alliance.
Therefore, Liam distributed the least important Valis of the Freya Familia to them.
Freya, wearing a purple cloak, walked alone on the street. Now, all of Orario was discussing Liam and the Hestia Familia.
As for the goddess Freya, she had already been announced by the Guild to be expelled from Orario.
After all, she was a god. Even after charming all of Orario, she had only received this level of punishment.
With nothing to do and no one paying attention to her, she finally came to The Hostess of Fertility restaurant.
Here was perhaps her only remaining safe harbor.
It was also, in these many years, the most familiar place to her in the mortal world besides Folkvangr.
Freya sat in the restaurant. At this time, The Hostess of Fertility restaurant was empty.
She rarely had time alone with Mia. Looking at Mia, who was cleaning the counter inside the bar.
An iced drink appeared in front of her.
"Tell me, why did I lose?"
"Isn't it because you've made too many enemies? And Hedin and the others did a lot of unnecessary things.
Really, you're penniless now, aren't you?
I didn't expect that in the end, you would still come to my place to drink for free."
"I can't help it. The Familia has been disbanded, and the assets have all been confiscated."
Mia's tone softened a little, "It's already very good that they didn't forcibly repatriate you back to the heavens.
And now the Guild is having a huge headache over how to deal with Ottar and the others."
Freya pinched her chin and recalled the previous situation, "I just told them to become heroes on this land."
She thought of when she left Folkvangr, her dependants, one by one, cried their hearts out.
That scene, even she did not dare to look back.
Perhaps she had long since formed a bond with these dependants, becoming a kind of kinship that surpassed superior and subordinate.
Even if you raise a dog, after a long time, you will likely forget that the other party is a dog, and treat it as a member of your own family.
Not to mention these Familia dependants.
"If you have no money, then just work to earn money like before. A certain little goddess said that she can be lenient with the city girls."
"I can't. That would be too pathetic."
Freya had her own pride. If she were to beg Hestia for mercy, she would absolutely not be able to do it.
"Ahem!"
Freya left the outside of The Hostess of Fertility restaurant and happened to see Liam, as well as the other waitresses in the restaurant, and Ryuu Lion.
Liam stepped forward, "Syr, I hope you will stay."
"I can't. This is a judgment decided by the Guild. I must go."
Freya looked at Liam with a smile, "I'm Freya. Are you going to play with my feelings again this time?"
"Freya, you can stay with the identity of Syr. So, Syr, join us."
Freya covered her mouth and chuckled, "What a greedy little cat. So what if I stay?
Now I have already been saved. It was you who cut off my attachments! Thank you!
Liam, I will always miss you. Until I get tired of it, I will always be thinking of you."
Liam walked to Freya's side and forcefully grabbed her left hand.
"Freya, I won this War Game. So from now on, you will be my woman in the identity of Syr, and become one of my harem!
And you are not allowed to interfere with my relationships!"
"I won't!"
Freya, wearing a hood, her face and voice had changed to Syr's.
Then she glared at Liam aggrievedly, "Which woman would be willing to give up her beloved person?
I can't do it!"
"What a naughty little cat. But I will always be watching you."
Liam waved at everyone present, and then directly carried Syr on his shoulder.
"Then, I'll take Syr back to the Familia first."
Liam's physical attributes were not something Syr could break free from, "Syr, stop struggling.
If you do, I'll princess-carry you."
Syr indeed quieted down, and then the young woman's eyes turned red, and one by one, tears slid down from the corners of her eyes to the ground:
"Liam, I don't want to be a goddess anymore. I want to be Syr. I want to stay here forever. I want to stay by everyone's side!"
Afterward, Liam switched from carrying Syr on his shoulder to carrying her in a princess-carry with both hands, and then brought her back to the Hestia Familia's home base, The Hearthfire Manor.
Liam nodded, "Syr, please take care of me in the future."
The Freya Familia dependants hiding around The Hostess of Fertility restaurant breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this scene.
Hedin adjusted his glasses, "Although it can't be called the best ending, it's not bad.
Liam, you've passed."
As core members of the Freya Familia, they would absolutely not abandon their Lady Goddess.
And those outer members would either, like them, these core members, continue to guard Syr forever and become wandering adventurers.
Or directly join other Familias.
It was a very normal thing for adventurers to switch Familias. As long as the adventurer themselves did not cause the new Familia to be repulsed, and met the recruitment conditions, they could generally join successfully.
And the members of the Freya Familia, each of them had powerful practical combat ability. Most Familias would welcome their joining.
Liam carried Syr and returned to The Hearthfire Manor.
Hestia looked at Liam in shock, "Liam, why did you bring another woman back?
And, she, she, she's not Freya?"
"Yes, Lady Hestia. Currently, Syr is penniless. I want to keep her in The Hearthfire Manor.
If there are not enough rooms, I can let her share a room with me."
Liam pointed at Syr, "I don't mind at all."
"No! Absolutely not!" Hestia immediately and nervously protected Syr behind her, "How can you sleep with her! Absolutely not.
It's decided. From now on, Syr will sleep with me!"
Hestia prepared to be on strict guard against Syr. Only by placing this vixen by her side would she feel a little at ease.
Not only that, but Lili was also arranged by her in the room farthest from Liam. However, in the entire Hearthfire Manor, apart from the Xenos, the rest were all women.
Hestia was incomparably conflicted in her heart. There were more and more of them!
This bastard Liam, this time he had actually brought a goddess back directly! How hateful!
A lively dinner ended. Hestia took Syr to the bathroom.
She impatiently pulled Syr, and on the grounds of enhancing their relationship, they soaked together in the warm, clear hot water.
"Freya, no. Syr, what are your plans for the future?"
"Naturally, to be Liam's woman. What else can I do?"
"No! Absolutely not!"
Hestia held her hands in front of her, made an X gesture, and her head shook like a rattle drum.
How could she let Syr get involved with Liam under her own nose? This was really too outrageous!
Syr's hand supported her chin, looking at Hestia with deep meaning.
She had already transformed from a young girl. And Hestia was still as dazed and cute as ever, seeming to still maintain her purity.
Just this situation alone gave Syr a sense of pleasure from having gotten a head start.
"Syr! What's with that look! It's so annoying!"
"Not at all. It's just the normal look of seeing a beauty."
When Hestia heard Syr praise her, her originally somewhat angry mood was immediately calmed.
"Oh, since that's the case, then you can continue to look at this goddess~ I won't bicker with you."
Hestia was in a very good mood. She directly floated in the warm bath, enjoying the heating of her whole body by the hot water.
Syr looked at Hestia with some envy. This little silly girl!
She had lived for so long, but it felt like her intelligence hadn't improved at all.
Syr was currently staying at The Hearthfire Manor, but starting from tomorrow, she was preparing to be self-reliant and continue to be a waitress at The Hostess of Fertility restaurant.
Even if her work ability was very poor, it was clear that being with the waitresses in the restaurant, she would live a very fulfilling life.
After losing her identity as a goddess, Syr only felt relaxed all over.
Now she no longer had to bear the future development and responsibility of an entire Familia. She just needed to be a restaurant waitress.
Being a little selfish, life would become very relaxed and comfortable.
...
Under the night light, Liam left The Hearthfire Manor alone.
On the back side of The Hearthfire Manor, Ottar, Hedin, Hogni, and other core Familia dependants of Freya, plus Bell, were staying here together.
Liam came here, "Since you've come, then how about joining our Familia?"
Ottar shook his head, "If we join you now, the Hestia Familia will become the number one public enemy of Orario.
And we now, the outer members have all been disbanded, leaving only these core members.
At least we have to wait until most of the people in Orario have cooled down from this charm incident."
Hedin looked towards The Hearthfire Manor, "That lord being accepted by Goddess Hestia, we are already very satisfied with this result. Thank you very much."
Liam expressed his understanding. It was like facing a criminal who had just been released from prison.
For the people around to completely eliminate the gap in their hearts, it would take a bit of a struggle.
So, these old subordinates of the Freya Familia could only act in their personal capacity in the future.
Liam looked at Ottar and the others, "Then how about this, I'll give you three months to relax?
After that, you all come to the Hestia Familia. At least become our Familia's hired collaborators?
After accumulating three months of ability scores, it should be worth updating again. When that time comes, let Goddess Hestia update your ability scores for you?"
Ottar looked at Hedin, "Hedin, what do you think? Allen, you say."
Allen turned his back, "I've said it many times! I want to obtain power, enough to kill the black dragon!
It doesn't matter who I follow! As long as I can kill the black dragon, I can casually throw away this life of mine!"
Hedin looked at Liam, "We need to develop low-key now. We'll give you an answer in three months.
Please help us take care of that lord."
"I see. Rest assured. Our current Familia's strength, you can completely trust."
The strongest of the Xenos, Asterius, had now reached Lv7. Although he had not competed with Ottar.
But as a Lv7, no matter how weak, he was not someone an ordinary Lv6 could defeat.
The current Hearthfire Manor had Xenos and Grand Casino employees. So there was no need to worry about safety.
Watching Liam leave, the stomachs of Hedin and the others let out a rumbling sound.
Hedin's face turned red with anger. He made up his mind and looked at the crowd:
"How shameful. Then let's go to the Dungeon to earn money first."
Ottar nodded, and so did Bell and the others.
After confirming that Lady Syr had a reliable place to stay, they also had to work for their own future.
This time the Familia was disbanded. Apart from their own equipment and personal items, the other Dungeon assets and Valis were also won by the Hestia Familia.
This kind of war would not cost one's life, but would only make one lose all their property.
Bell clutched his stomach, "Master! I will work hard!"
"I will be in charge of this Dungeon subjugation..."
...
In Orario, Dungeon exploration was always the main theme.
Early in the morning, after Liam and the others had finished eating, Syr went to The Hostess of Fertility restaurant and started working.
And Liam, on the other hand, called everyone over.
"Everyone, how was your rest these two days?"
Haruhime and the others looked at each other, not knowing what to say.
Liam tapped the table with his finger, "Currently, in our Familia, I myself am Lv5, Ryuu and Ais are Lv6. Lili, Haruhime, Wien, Mikoto, Cassandra, and Daphne Lauros are all Lv2.
Apart from Lili, whose ability scores are all D-rank, Mikoto and Daphne's are all A-rank.
This growth attribute is really very efficient, but it's still not enough. Our ultimate goal is to slay the black dragon and clear the lowest level of the Dungeon."
Mikoto and the others looked at each other in shock. They even thought Liam was dreaming.
You have to know, the current Dungeon subjugation progress was at the 58th floor. No one could even conquer the 59th floor.
This was the current limit of conquest in Orario.
Mikoto raised her hand, "Liam, can we really do it now? Subjugating the black dragon and clearing the deepest part of the Dungeon.
These two things feel like ultimate tasks. They sound as dreamlike as destroying the world."
Liam looked at everyone, "No matter what, we have to continue our Dungeon expedition next."
Lili stood up excitedly, "Okay! Lili has wanted to do this for a long time! Expedition, and then improve our strength!"
Every expedition, as a supporter, her ability was that the more things she carried, the more her own ability score bonus would be.
That is, to be able to carry more things, her various abilities could better help Liam and the others in the Dungeon.
Liam's goal this time was obvious. He would try to raise his Sword Soul template level a bit.
There was one more thing. After defeating Ottar, his adventurer level had not yet been updated. He would go find the Lady Goddess to update it later.
