"This, this is expensive?!"
Hestia was shocked by the menu prices. It was at least one-third more expensive than other pubs. But considering the cute waitresses, the lively atmosphere, and the delicious food, she conceded the price was fair.
"I'll take three of today's recommended combos, plus beer and drinks!"
"Understood! Please wait a moment."
Ryu took the order, giving Lin Feng a quick glance before leaving.
Lin Feng looked around. Syr wasn't there. What is Syr playing at? Hestia has nothing to do with you right now. Lin Feng was puzzled by Syr's actions.
"Hello, your meals are ready. Please enjoy."
Ryu quickly returned with their orders.
"Ryu, keep up the good work!"
Lin Feng secretly touched her skirt as he spoke. Ryu said nothing, tugged her skirt, and quickly left, her slightly flushed ears showing her internal turmoil.
"I don't know if you'll like this drink. You can't have beer; you're too young."
Hestia placed a special drink in front of Lili, speaking with care. Lili nodded, having never enjoyed such a special drink before.
"Thank you for the hospitality, Lady Hestia, I..."
"It's alright, Lili. Even after you join the Hestia Familia, you can still join Little Ai's party."
Lin Feng interrupted. Hestia gratefully looked at Lin Feng. This was a massive reassurance for Lili.
"I... I want to join Lady Hestia's Familia, but... what about Lord Soma?"

Lili's eyes were red-rimmed as she finally spoke her mind. "I don't want to live under oppression anymore."
"Wow! Yes!"
Hestia, who had been nervous, immediately hugged Lili tightly when she heard her agree.
"Waaah!!!"
Lili was completely breathless, waving her arms helplessly.
"Hestia, let go! I think Lili is about to pass out!"
"Ah! I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"
Hestia quickly released Lili. Lili was dizzy, red-faced, and muttering phrases like
"I envy you."
A few minutes later, Lili recovered and sat back down, while Hestia was moved to sit next to Lin Feng, as Lili feared being grabbed again.
"See, Lili, I told you! Hestia is a great Goddess, and one of the three Great Chef Goddesses of Heaven, too."
"What?!"
Lili's eyes widened. A Goddess who was also a chef was rarer than a rare animal.
"Hehe, it's alright!"
Hestia smiled shyly.
"Hestia, what are you going to do about Soma?"
Lin Feng's question made Lili's beast ears perk up.
"Mmh... I don't know yet. I'm not familiar with Soma. If I had the money, I could transfer Lili over... but..."
Hestia knew money was the biggest issue. She didn't have hundreds of thousands of Valis.
"If money can solve it, that's fine. The fear is if money can't solve it."
Lin Feng knew that Soma's Familia was controlled by the Captain, and Soma only cared about brewing. Lili had managed to overcome her addiction to the divine wine.
"Junior-kun, lend me some money... I, I'll work hard to pay you back!"
Hestia grabbed Lin Feng's hand, her blue eyes shining pleadingly. Lin Feng was helpless. I don't have any money either!
"Hestia... I don't have money right now either. And if we use money, I need my kids' permission."
"Since the Familia is new, even though Little Ai and the others earn money quickly, all their savings were spent buying new gear yesterday."
"We spent one million Valis at Hephaistos!"
Lin Feng revealed the total amount.
"One, one million?!"
Hestia and Lili simultaneously stood up, shouting in shock, drawing attention. The pub staff, including Mia, didn't intervene; pubs were places for loud conversations.
