Wrong Ground, Spiral Twins

How could a guy who could chop off a LV.2's head in an instant be LV.1!
"Captain Sunnis~!"
Su Mo held the sword and slowly pressed it down, letting the bright red blood slide down the edge of the sword. "Why do you think the Hestia family was able to reach a cooperation with the guild? How could I find the flag that could kill you so quickly? How could I get the thing in your hand?"
"Finally, why do you think I dare to come to the Soma clan alone and come in front of you?"

Chapter 89 Meeting.
There were a few more drops of blood in the living room.
But that was just an accident, and the closed-door talks were still very friendly.
The two sides had frank exchanges, fully exchanged views, and ultimately reached a consensus. It was undoubtedly a beneficial meeting.
Su Mo couldn't help but curl his lips as he walked out of the Soma clan's residence carrying a large package. He was selling divine wine and exploiting clan members. He thought that the leader of the Soma clan would be very rich.
In the end, they had already given a discounted price, but in the end they couldn't even take out 70 million Faris in cash, and had to use other things to make up the number. Where did all the money that this family earned so wildly go?
Is the expense really that huge just for making wine?
Su Mo was extremely skeptical about this. He felt that he might have emptied the money in the Su Mo clan's account, but he definitely did not take out the clan leader's private treasury.
Although, his face was indeed dark enough.
But a family that is crazy about making money can't even take out 70 million after decades of savings, excluding fixed assets. Who would believe it if they told others about it?
When they returned home with their harvest, Bell and Hestia were still waiting at home.
Seeing Su Mo return, the two put aside their last worries.
When Su Mo put the package on the table and spread it out, their eyes widened.
"Are these all divine wines?"
Su Mo took out the bottle that was obviously smaller than the previous one and explained, "Only this bottle is a finished product. The others are just ordinary divine wines circulating in the market."
"Give me this bottle."
Su Mojiang handed it over directly, "I want to use it as a gift when I visit Loki's family."
"As for the thank-you gift... never mind. We should not be stingy when we should be generous. Loki, that alcoholic guy, would like this kind of gift. You can take it from me whenever you go."
Hestia was obviously a little unhappy about giving Loki a gift, and was also very worried about the real divine wine.
Of course this is understandable, after all, it is something that can turn a person into a beast with just one bite.
"The rest can be kept at home for guests. I remember that you, Lord God, also like to drink a few sips."
“So expensive!”
This is a magical wine that can be sold for 70,000 or 80,000 faris for a small jar. If she spent this much money in a tavern, she wouldn't be able to drink so much in a year.
"It's only about a dozen jars. I picked them out on purpose. Each one is different."
As he said this, Su Mo took out a wooden box that was more than 40 centimeters long and less than 20 centimeters wide from the bottom of the package.
“So many gems!”
Bell exclaimed.
The wooden box was opened, revealing various gems that had been carefully processed by the goblins. They were neatly arranged and looked dazzling at first glance.
“These are the ones that are suitable to be sold.”
Hestia took the box and looked at it, then quickly closed it again. She was not interested in gemstones and could not estimate their value. "How much did you extort in total?"
Su Mo took out the guild gold note from his pocket with one hand and made a "seven" gesture with the other.
"Seventy, seventy million?"
Looking at Bell who seemed to have never seen so much money, Su Mo nodded, "We got the money and the people, but we also have a grudge. As long as there is a chance, the Su Mo family will definitely not mind taking a bite of us. Maybe right now, they are already thinking about how to retaliate against us."
It's not that Su Mo wanted to make malicious speculations about the Somo clan, but if he had unrealistic expectations for a beast den like the Somo clan, he would really appear to be a fool.
"I'll be ready."
Bell nodded solemnly.
"Protect Lililuka well. As long as she is here, the Soma clan will not dare to do anything to us in the short term."
Su Mo said: "Of course, we must be careful of the Su Mo clan's shady tricks, but we don't need to take them too seriously. Even if we go to war now, we may not necessarily lose."
If he was afraid of even a clan consisting of only two or three LV.2 senior adventurers, he could just wait for death.
After his previous test, he was able to determine that the leader of the Soma clan was more like a fat businessman than an adventurer. His slow combat reaction was completely inconsistent with the title of "senior adventurer".
He may be shrewd or sinister, but he is definitely not a qualified adventurer.
"Let me protect Lilyluka?"
"She will be your supporter from now on. If not you, who else can protect her?"
Su Mo said this, put the guild's gold note on the table, and finally took out a notarized contract of the guild from the prop bag on his waist.
The content of this contract revolves around the right to dispose of a person, and the two parties to the contract are naturally the Hestia family and the Soma family.
Conversion requires the consent of God, but being willing to accept punishment for one's mistakes is the right of the leader and the freedom of the members.
Su Mo finally handed the contract to Hestia.
Hestia opened it and looked at it, then nodded and rolled it up and put it away.
This kind of thing actually doesn't have much binding force. If the Soma Familia wants to tear it up, the Hestia Familia has no way to stop it, because as long as Lililuka doesn't convert, she will still be a member of the Soma Familia, and the guild will be powerless to do anything about it.
But this contract is also very important, because it is a clear proof that the Hestia family is right.
If possible, who wouldn't want to stand on the moral high ground and make comments?
"Speaking of which, where is that kid now?"
"Your Excellency the Supreme God wants to see him?"
Hestia nodded.
Now that the matter has been settled, she naturally needs to see the child with her own eyes.
This is a necessary check.
"Well, since fate has already decided the outcome, we should inform her as soon as possible."
"Can I come along?"
"It's not possible anywhere else, but it's totally possible here."
The dwarfs who were kidnapped last night were not at Hestia's clan residence, so where else could they be at this moment? Of course, they were at Fels's place.
If the Soma clan really wants to find Lilyluka through them, then they can just follow them. It would be a good opportunity to take them to meet the hidden boss of the guild, and it would also be a kind of proof that they are taking advantage of the power of others to the end.
The two of them quickly packed up their things and went out together in a confident manner.
The three of them walked slowly, but until they reached their destination, Su Mo did not sense any trace of pursuers.
It's a bit of a pity. I can only say that a sinister, shrewd and scheming person would not act so rashly.
Of course, this also indirectly shows that his performance of taking advantage of the power of others today should be quite good.
Being cautious is a good thing. It seems that the team leader will not and dare not completely break off relations with him before finding out his background.
As for waiting for him to find out his own background... not to mention whether he can find it out or not, and whether he will be thrown into jail first when he finds out halfway, it will only take some time before the Soma clan will no longer be a threat to them.
Witch's Hideout
Seeing the gods coming, the owner of the place dressed as a witch stood up for the first time to greet everyone.
She personally led everyone to the underground laboratory. Hestia and Bell met the dwarfs who had been waiting here for a long time. Su Mo did not step forward, but walked to the other side and told Fels about the results of today's test.
"Even if he is not directly involved, he must have some connection with the organization that traffics heretics."
“This is an unexpected gain.”
The main body of arresting and trafficking heretics has long been identified, but how wide this network is spread is still being secretly investigated by a certain god.

Chapter 90: Team and Expectations.
"Lily Lucaard..."
"Yes! My name is Lily Lucaard."
Lilyluka had already stood up straight.
When she was brought here last night, she already knew very clearly that there were only two outcomes waiting for her today.
One is the judgment from the guild and the revenge that involves one's own death, and the other is the arbitration and necessary atonement from the Hestia family.
Apparently, she finally got the second result.
"Nice to meet you, hello, Goddess Hestia!"
The face of the goddess Hestia in front of him was childish, as if wavering between the boundary between a young girl and a little girl. However, perhaps it was precisely because of this imbalance that her overly beautiful face became even more outstanding.
It is both lovable and heroic, just like two contradictory beauties that exist at the same time but without any conflict.
For some reason, Lilyluka had a strong sense of déjà vu.
Soon, she realized the source of this sense of déjà vu - the leader of the Hestia clan, who also had a childish face and was only a teenager, but his mental age seemed to far exceed his physical age. He was childish and mature, contradictory but not at all inconsistent.
"Let me get this straight, Miss Parum. I don't like you very much."
Hearing this, Lililuka's breathing stagnated.
"After learning about your situation, I can understand some of your shameful behaviors, but understanding and approval are completely different. As for me, I can understand and sympathize with you, but I will never forgive your actions."
When Hestia spoke, neither her expression nor her eyes looked sharp, but at this moment, even her soft voice could not conceal her majesty as a goddess.
"But my child, Su thinks you can help Bell and make up for some of Bell's character deficiencies. And Bell, after knowing your situation, is willing to help you and give you a chance, so I'm here."
Lililuka lowered her head in shame, not daring to look at the goddess in front of her.
She knew she was being observed, being judged by a goddess.
"I want to make sure whether you are worth saving. I want to know whether the efforts of the Hestia family are worth it. Miss Parum, can you give me a definite answer?"
"Lily..."
It is impossible to lie before God.
Facing the eyes of the goddess that seemed to be able to see through everything, Lililuka raised her head and immediately thought of these words.
Lies were her disguise and the skill she relied on for survival, but they were useless at this moment.
"Lily, I will try my best to make myself worthwhile!"
Lilyluka couldn't promise anything, so he could only confess everything that was in his heart at the moment without any hypocrisy.
"Then I will just keep looking forward to it for now."
The expression in Hestia's eyes did not change at all. "I will look forward to your change, Ms. Palum! But please remember, this opportunity only comes once. If you make a shameful mistake again, there will be no place for you in the Hestia family... forever!"
At this moment, Lililuka felt as if her heart was being tightly grasped by something. However, in this seemingly inescapable situation, she faced the goddess's shining blue eyes for the first time.
"Lily swears..."
"I swear to Goddess Hestia that I will never make those shameful mistakes again."
The oath faded away, but the man and the god were still staring at each other, until Hestia closed her eyes. Then the little man seemed to have been drained of his energy and spirit, and he instantly became listless.
"From now on, you will be Bell's supporter."
Arranging the work, Hestia pointed to Bell standing beside her and said, "He will help you and supervise you. Likewise, I hope you can help him."
"I will."
The little man looked at Bell and nodded vigorously.
She didn't dare to tell others, but this overly naive young man really needed his help.
"We have obtained the right to dispose of you from the Soma clan. Although it is not in compliance with the law, as long as the Soma clan does not dare to break up with us, at least in public, they will not be able to do anything to you anymore, because you are already the property of the Hestia clan."
At this time, Su Mo, who had come closer, took over the conversation, "As for some of the secret means, you still need to be on guard, at least in the short term. In short, you may be retaliated against in secret, but at the same time, even with the constraints of God's grace, you have actually left the Soma clan."
