Chapter 72 Giggity.

After bringing all the members of the Hestia Familia for the upcoming discussion together including Ryuu as despite her still wearing the falna of Astrea she was basically a member of our family in all but name. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Sidenote, Eina really doesn't like being interrupted from her Bell time if the large going away hickey she gave his poor neck was any indication to her marking her territory.

"So, the Ikelos Familia for whatever reason has a problem with our Familia, and as a level three and a couple level twos attacked me on the way home, when I questioned them about whether this there was a bounty or something pushing Ikelos's people to track me down in particular they used explosives to deter me and hide within the sewers." I explained the weird nonsense that happened a couple hours ago.

Freya gathered the rooms attention as she hummed in thought before she spoke. "Well, Ikelos's black market dealings are basically an open secret and the reason they haven't been disbanded or penalized is that they don't even bother using the guild to exchange magic stones and they are basically the owner of the Daedalus District and there captain Dix is level five which deters most Familia's and frankly the ones who aren't deterred won't be bothered by the Ikelos Familia."

Ok so with them basically being independent of the guild and knowing that literal maze of a city district like the back of their hands it makes sense that people won't bother trying to control them not to mention them being underground most of the time in Knossos.

Thankfully I didnt need to bring up Knossos as Ryuu was willing to fill in the group about the man-made Dungeon replica and the sheer depth and size of the project was astounding not to mention arguably the most important part of the man-made Dungeon was the materials the walls and doors separating the floors being made out of high quality Adamantine and the local Mithril.

Ryuu seemed to have an idea as she crossed her legs. "We can simply make an elevator of sorts and Jake can fuse a hole within straight down into the dungeon allowing us to make our way to the heart of Knossos and should we be able to capture the control piece. Jake may be able to get around the bloodline restriction upon it and be able to control the floors of the dungeon similar to how he fused Haruhime's tracking collar."

I was surprised she knew about the control rooms within the Knossos but then again, she certainly spent plenty of time within it killing members of Evilus so it makes sense.

"Alright so I believe I will honesty be able to get around the restriction's by fusing my own blood into the control piece. But Ryuu, Bell, Aisha, what do we do with the criminals within?" I asked as I looked at the people who would likely be fighting within the dungeon. I didnt include Lili and Haruhime as they would likely need to stay behind as Lili wouldn't be able to fight in the close quarters with her Bow Gun, and frankly Haruhime wasn't much of a fighter at all, and I needed to fuse something for her to use offensively at some point.

Ryuu and Aisha unsurprising shrugged without much care but Bell wanted to try to arrest them all which I could only shut him down as there were probably hundreds of people down there and we had no way for a dozen people to control so many people not to mention we weren't even including the Ganesha Familia who were the law enforcement Familia nowadays.

"Ok so basically the goal is to cut the head off the snake by capturing or dealing with the Captain of the Ikelos Familia and should we manage to capture him we will turn him over to Ganesha. Sound good?" Unspoken was that we will be treating the lower-level members as we pleased, and I could see Ryuu and Aisha killing the ones who gave them any problems.

Bell nodded looking more at ease at the thought we weren't going in there to slaughter them wholesale, but I couldn't help but feel like I was missing something about Knossos, and it was going to bite me in the ass. But I couldn't remember for the life of me.
