Chapter 141: I am innocent!
Having been called into the guild, Isao no longer wore his usual distressed clothes but his dignified and stylish suit, like the most professional lawyer in the modern world. Ne/w novel chapters are published at novelhall.comilarly, Hestia made an effort to present herself in the best light. With Isao's daily income, her life had become a breeze, and his generous spending habits only added to her comfort. Initially, the change felt strange, but she understood the advantage of being stylish and dressed in their best.
Not only did it boost their confidence, it also made them people who saw them unable to underestimate them.
Even if they were called by the guild staff due to Isao's crime last night, the two didn't show fear and appeared so charming in the eyes of others, causing the guild staff, who came to invite them, to look at them in amazement and wondered whether the two really did a crime since was there any criminals who appeared so confident like this?
"Please follow us," The guild staff was so respectful and polite even when Isao and Hestia came out from the abandoned church.
"Thank you." Isao nodded calmly, then let the guild staff lead them.
Still, watching all of this, even though Hestia appeared calm, she wasn't calm at all. "Are we going to be alright, Isao-kun?"
"Leave everything to me," Isao said softly.
Hearing his answer, Hestia was in doubt and asked quietly, "Have you encountered a similar situation before?"
Isao didn't answer her question and only gave her a soft smile as he patted her head gently.
Hestia sighed, but she didn't press him to answer her question. She knew that Isao had hidden many things inside. While she wanted to know everything about him, she wouldn't do something that would make him hate her. Moreover, as a goddess, the only thing that she didn't lack was time.
They would be together for so long, and she could learn about him slowly.
Yet, frankly, it was her first time seeing someone as cunning as him, but how did he become such a person?
Still, she didn't hate this part of him and clung to him tighter, pressing her ample breasts against his arm.
Naturally, as they walked, the two attracted everyone's attention because of their beauty and handsomeness.
The waitresses of the Hostess of Fertility also happened to see them, dressed in stylish suits, putting them in a daze, but he didn't seem to notice them, and they knew that this wasn't a time to bother them, especially when they were surrounded by the guild staff and the members of the Ganesha Familia, who were in charge of the military police of Orario.
"He is so handsome, nyaa..." Anya Fromel, one of the cat girls' waitresses on the Hostess of Fertility, murmured.
Even if he was surrounded, he still oozed the confidence aura as if everything was under his control.
"He is lying, nyaa~! That guy definitely isn't a virgin, nyaa~!" Chloe complained.
Everyone who heard Chloe's words rolled their eyes.
"But will they be alright?" The only elf waitress, Ryuu Lion, asked softly.
"He seems confident." Mia folded her arms, staring at Isao's back. "Moreover, his eyes are the eyes of a man. I am sure that he will be alright."
"..."
Everyone glanced at Mia strangely, and somehow, a dirty thought emerged in their minds, but they didn't dare to say anything and just quietly watched Isao's back like any other.
Still, Mia glanced at Syr, who had been silent and kept staring at Isao's back, letting out a sigh, thinking that Isao's luck was so bad!
"Take responsibility!" Apollo looked at Isao, licking his lips, and said, "I want him! Give him to me, and I will forget everything!" Frankly, even if Hyakinthos lost one of his balls, it didn't matter, and even a good thing for him since it gave him a chance to get Isao without paying much.
Moreover, Isao's potential was clear, especially when he could defeat Hyakinthos and many other adventurers alone.
While Isao's method was dirty, Apollo didn't mind at all and was even amazed by him. If he could get Isao, then becoming a strong Familia like Loki or Freya wouldn't be a dream!
Even if his Familia couldn't reach such a level, it should be possible to reach the level of Ganesha Familia or Ishtar Familia.
Moreover, his handsomeness... Apollo felt so lustful and wanted to take Isao's virginity!
Nevertheless, everyone shuddered at Apollo's lust, and they quickly tightened their buttocks. One thing, they believed that as long as Isao entered Apollo Familia, his ass couldn't be saved.
"No way! I don't want you to get Isao, you beast! Isao can only be mine! His innocence is mine!" Hestia screamed.
"...." Everyone.
What was this?
The guild felt a headache and just listened to their fights.
"Hmph! Whatever, but it was the truth that he had beaten my children!" Apollo smiled at Hestia and said, "You should have taken responsibility; if not, then I will take you on the War Game!"
"W-War game?!" Hestia was dumbfounded.
"What is a War Game?" Isao asked curiously.
Hearing his question, Apollo smiled and explained generously, "A War Game is a battle between Familia with set rules. The Gods and Goddesses use their Familia members to express their will, similar to a proxy war.
"A special Denatus is held to set rules and decide on what type the War Game will be along with what the winner would receive. The God or Goddess that loses in a War Game must obey the terms set during the Denatus without question. Types of War Games include Single Combat, Siege, and various others."
"Oh, just a war, then."
"Yes." Apollo nodded softly at Isao with a gentle smile.
"Thank you for your explanation." Isao thanked Apollo politely while trying to hold his disgust.
"No problem~!"
"However, there is something that I want to clear up first," Isao said.
"Clear up?"
Hestia, Apollo, and everyone looked at Isao with a doubtful expression.
"I have never beaten the children of Apollo Familia! They have slandered me for a crime that I have never committed!" Isao roared as if he had been wronged. "I am innocent!"
"....." Everyone.
For the first time in history, the profession of a lawyer had entered this world.
