Soma tiaring at me for a few seds without saying a word. I lost my patiend let out a long sigh.

  "Are you really not going to do this? Do you wao initiate a War Game just because of this?"

  Of course, I wouldn't do something like that.

  However, I o make him yield somehow.

  "You didn't have to suggest something so drastic."

  "…"

  "I don't have the right to keep her in my Familia. I failed to protect her. And you seem to care about her," Soma said in a monotone voice. He didn't seem particurly happy.

  "You know Zanis wao use her, don't you?"

  "…"

  "If you didn't know, sider yourself warhat idiot is someone you o remove from the Familia as soon as possible. Lock him up and never let him out again."

  "…"

  "You seem to have some idea of what's going on. Well, since you already know about the dirty things that idiot has been doing, I guess I don't o tell you everything I know."

  "It's not necessary."

  I took o sip of wine ahe gss oable. After that, I prepared to leave. "Deal with Zanis. I'll bring Lili here, and I don't want to see him here tomorrow."

  "…"

  Soma said nothing and watched me leave.

  After closing the room door, I let out a long sigh of relief.

  "I wasn't sure if I could hahe effects of the wine, but thankfully, it worked out. It was easier than I expected. Zanis tried to cause trouble, but luckily, everything turned out fine."

  I hope Soma hahis properly, just like in the inal story.

  He shouldn't let the Familia remain under anyone else's trol again.

  *Soma's POV*

  As soon as that strange boy left the room, I sighed and took another sip of my wine. "Lili, huh?" I thought of Liliruca—of all the pain I caused her. I didn't protect her, and I let her suffer.

  I'm gd she's found someone who values her.

  "She's a special girl, but I no longer deserve to have her in my Familia. I'll let her live as she wishes from now on."

  I left the room and walked to where Zanis was.

  He was still on the floor. His gsses were broken, and his teeth were equally shattered.

  "Wake up," I said. But Zanis didn't stir. "This will make things much easier."

  After a few minutes, I showed up with two members of my Familia. "Zanis will be leaving the Familia as of today. Arrest him immediately."

  The two men froze for a few seds when they heard my words.

  "God, are you sure about this?"

  "God, don't you think you're overreag?"

  The two fools asked while sweating nervously.

  In the end, I removed Zanis and those two men from the Familia.

  However, only Zanis was imprisohe two men were expelled from the Familia and vanished shortly after.

  *Luan's POV*

  Lili was there when I arrived at the mansion.

  She came running to me as soon as I walked through the door. "Luan!" she shouted my name and jumped on me, huggiightly. "You actually went to Soma Familia's house? Are you crazy?" she asked.

  I hadn't told Hestia I was going there, so Lili guessed.

  "How do you know?"

  "You told me before that you were pnning to go there, and the Goddess didn't know where you went… I just guessed. So, what happened? Did they try to hurt you? You didn't start a fight, did you?"

  Lili started b me with questions.

  I patted her head and said, "Everything's fine. I talked to God Soma."

  "You talked to him?"

  "It was easier than you'd think."

  "And Zanis… What happeo him? Did you meet him?"

  "He tried to get in my way, but I dealt with him easily."

  "Don't tell me you… hit him. I'm sure he'll try to get revenge," Lili said, worried, but I calmed her down.

  "You're w too much. I spoke to God, Soma; he must have already taken care of Zanis. I told you, didn't I? It was easier than it seems." Too easy.

  After I told him how much I cared about Lili, he started listening to me.

  That idiot even knew Zanis was exploiting the Familia. I guess my showing up was enough to 'wake him up.'

  This 'arc' was so short it's disappointing.

  I thought I'd have an iing flict with Soma Familia. Ultimately, God Soma 'woke up' and decided to handle all the problems.

  "In the inal story, things were more plicated. A huge flifolded."

  "Huh?"

  "It's nothing. Tomorrow, we'll go there for the God to officially remove you from the Familia. Are you excited to bee a member of Hestia Familia?"

  "Of course I am! I 't wait to be by your side every day."

  ####

  The day, I went with Lili to Soma Familia's house. Unlike yesterday, there were two men at the entrance I didn't reize. They opehe main door a us in.

  Lili was nervous and held my hand tightly.

  "It's okay," I said, smiling at her.

  I walked with Lili to the room where I'd met God Soma yesterday, assuming he would be there. When I reached the door and knocked, a voice came from inside. "e in." It was God Soma's calm voice.

  Lili's body trembled, and she g to me.

  "Stay calm. It's okay," I reassured Lili.

  "I'm trying, but I 't stop shaking.""It's fine," I said again before opening the door.

  When the door opened, God Soma was wearing a grey robe. Lili hid behind me.

  "I brought her. You'd better keep your word," I said to Soma.

  "Don't worry. e here," Soma said.

  "Me?" Lili asked.

  "Yes, you."

  I enced her to approach him.

  Without asking for anything iurn, Soma removed Lili's falna, freeing her from Soma Familia.
