Because Ais was too polite, Hestia gave an answer subconsciously. Then, revealing a mask of pain, she glared at Loki fiercely: "As expected of a washboard child like you, you actually used trickery to trick me into revealing the answer!"
Loki wasn't ashamed but rather proud. He stood up with a big red bump on his head and said, "Of course, my Aisi learns everything quickly!"
As she was speaking, her right hand reached out dishonestly for Ai Si's round and firm buttocks, and then she was grabbed by the other party and twisted mercilessly.
“Ahhh!! It’s going to break, it’s going to break, Ais! Ais!!!”
Loki screamed like a pig being slaughtered.
Ai Si's eyes were not paying attention to Loki at all, because after getting close to Mu Huai, the sense of closeness he brought to her became stronger. This inexplicable goodwill made her want to understand him, so that her eyes became sharp as if she had entered a combat state.
As a supporter, Lily had also seen many adventurers. The moment she noticed the change in her eyes, she immediately jumped off the chair and dragged Mu Huai and Hestia back: "Master Mu Huai, Master Hestia, be careful of this woman, she is hostile to us!"
"Tsk, Mr. Hua, what do you want to do to us?"
Seeing that the situation was likely to turn into a dispute among the Families if it continued to develop, Finn Timna, the leader of the Loki Familia, who was responsible for protecting their main god, stepped forward to explain: "Goddess Hestia, you misunderstood. Ais only gives this look when she's interested in something. She doesn't intend to attack you."
But what he didn't know was that his interest in Mu Huai was more serious to Hestia and Lily than directly attacking them.
The two exchanged glances, then Hestia leaped onto Lily's shoulders and sat down, spreading her arms to form a human wall to block their view. They said in unison, "If you have anything to say, come to me. Don't have any bad thoughts about Mu Huai (Master)!"
At the same time, Loki, who had been struggling like a fish that had just been pulled ashore, let out a shrill wail after hearing that Ai Si was interested in Mu Huai: "No! Ai Si, if she falls in love with a man, at least... at least wait until a hundred years after I die!"
In fact, she had sensed the fairy-like aura on Mu Huai from the beginning, so she took the initiative to provoke Hestia and tried to dig Mu Huai out to see what was going on. However, she never expected that Ai Si's intuition was so sharp.
Although she didn't know that immortal blood was flowing in her body, she intuitively sensed the immortal aura on Mu Huai and even took the initiative to talk to him, a treatment that even she, the chief god of her clan, had never enjoyed.
The more Loki thought about it, the more depressed he became. His body turned black and white and lay quietly on the ground. He gradually gave up thinking.
Just when Hestia and the others were in a stalemate with Ais, Mia Grando, the manager of the Bountiful Mistress, a sturdy woman who was 1.8 meters tall, came to the crowd and broke the deadlock with her powerful and resonant voice.
"Although the Loki Familia is indeed well-known in Orario, we can't let this affect other customers dining in our restaurant. Captain Finn, could you please take your people back to their seats first?"
"I'm so sorry, Manager Mia."
Finn apologized and winked at the deputy leader Livilia who was watching the show. In the entire Loki family, only the elf who raised Ess could call her.
"Aisi, it's very rude to disturb others while they're eating. If you have any questions, wait until they've finished eating before asking."
"Well, wait for me after you finish your meal."
Ai Si said this coldly, then let go of Loki and returned to her seat without looking back to eat.
Finn smiled apologetically at Hestia, then carried Loki away.
Because of what Ais said, Hestia and Lily immediately decided to order some dishes to take home. For the first time, they realized how dangerous the outside world was. They could run into a tall blonde woman who had bad intentions towards Mu Huai just by going out for a meal.
"Lady Hestia, I believe it is necessary to strictly screen the women who approach Master Mu Huai!"
"Lily-kun, what you said makes perfect sense. Let's work together tonight to develop a perfect set of screening conditions!"
"Yes!"
Lily straightened her back and saluted Hestia, then from time to time she would keep an eye on Ais who was still eating. As soon as she showed any signs of finishing her meal, she would immediately let Hestia and Mu Huai go first, and she would stay to take back the food that had not yet been packed.
Perhaps knowing that letting them stay in the store would only cause more trouble, the store manager Mia specifically gave priority to cooking the dishes they ordered and had Chloe deliver them.
As for Loki's family, after dinner they found that Mu Huai and his family had already run away. There was obvious regret in Aisi's eyes, but she didn't say anything. After all, she already knew Mu Huai's name and family. As long as he was still in Orario, she could find him anytime.
Such a funny thing happened in the restaurant, and Liu, as a waiter, naturally saw the whole process. She noticed that Mu Huai was the hateful human who easily controlled her. Thinking of how he "defiled" her in the dungeon, she was so angry that she almost crushed the plate in her hand.
Fortunately, her companion Chloe seemed to be very familiar with the other party, saving her the trouble of asking around for information.
After the restaurant closed, Liu took the initiative to ask Chloe, who was wiping the table with her tail raised: "Chloe, can you tell me more about the adventurer named Mu Huai today?"
"Meow? Are you interested in him?"
"No, I'm just a little curious that Aisi would actually take the initiative to talk to him."
Chloe immediately raised the corner of her mouth and introduced Mu Huai to her in a vivid manner.

Chapter 19 Hestia: Threesome?
Ais's proactive approach was a very dangerous signal to Hestia and the others. She was a well-known Lv.5 adventurer in the entire Orario, and a rising star who was given the title of "Sword Princess" by the gods.
If Loki really had the audacity to let her poach Mu Huai, they would be completely suppressed in height and fame, and would feel very unconfident about whether they could keep Mu Huai.
This does not mean that they do not believe in Mu Huai, but after comparing their own conditions with Ai Si's, their confidence was hit and they began to doubt themselves.
Mu Huai noticed that the two girls were in a low mood, so after returning home, he held them on his lap, took turns feeding them, and patted their heads, which made them smile again.
"Mu Huaijun, don't worry, I will definitely protect your chastity!"
"The Sword Princess is not invincible. Lily and Lady Hestia will definitely keep all danger out of the clan!"
Mu Huai's mouth twitched slightly. In fact, he was still a little interested in Ai Si. For example, her right breastplate looked like it was easy for people to reach in and touch.
Now that Hestia and Lily had finally regained their spirits, he didn't want to dampen their enthusiasm, so he could only remain silent and listen to them discuss how to screen the girls who wanted to approach him.
Hestia adorably pinched her chin and said seriously, "First, we need to set a height limit. Any girl taller than us must be closely monitored!"
"But Lady Hestia, Lily is a dwarf. She's only 1.1 meters tall. Normal human children are taller than Lily."
After being reminded by her, Hestia also realized the problem. If Lily's height standard was used, more than 90% of the women in Orario would probably be included in the warning list.
"Then... based on my height? I'm 1.4 meters, so I shouldn't be too short, right?"
Lily was speechless and choked up. She replied tactfully, "You are relatively petite among humans."
"Ah? Then what's the appropriate warning line?"
"How about asking Master Mu Huai?"
Two pairs of watery eyes looked at him, and Mu Huai had no choice but to provide them with an average value: "A height of 1.55 meters or more is enough, right?"
"Lily-kun!"
Lily straightened her back immediately when Hestia suddenly called her name. "Lady Hestia, what can I do for you?"
"How tall is Mr. Hua?"
"Please wait..."
Lily swiftly ran back to her room, returning with a worn leather-covered notebook covered in sticky notes. After searching for a while, she gave her answer: "Sword Princess is about 1.65 meters tall."
"Very good. From now on, women over 1.55 meters tall who try to get close to Mu Huai-jun should be careful!"
"Mmmmmmm!"
Lily nodded and took notes in a brand new notebook with a quill. Then, as if she had thought of something, she raised her hand and asked, "Lady Hestia, what about women who wish to join our Familia?"
"Uh……"
Hestia looked embarrassed. She had never considered this kind of question before. When she thought about the increasing number of girls around Mu Huai, she immediately felt jealous and asked reluctantly, "Can't the clan just maintain our current number?"
"Of course not! If the clan wants to grow and develop, it must absorb new members. We can't always let Master Mu Huai bear all the responsibilities of exploring dungeons, conquering enemies, making money, etc. alone, right?"
Lily was particularly strong in this regard. Not only did she not flatter Hestia's childish ideas, she also began to criticize her.
"Lily understands that Lady Hestia doesn't want others to take Master Mu Huai's work away from her, but Master Mu Huai has too many responsibilities right now. What if he collapses from exhaustion? We can't be so selfish and only think about ourselves."
Hestia was so embarrassed by what she said that she could hardly raise her head. She gently grabbed Mu Huai's shirt with her right hand and looked at him with tears in her eyes: "I'm sorry, Mu Huai, I'm a selfish and useless god..."
"That's not the case!"
Mu Huai quickly raised his right hand, gently placed the tip of his thumb on Hestia's cheek, and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes. "How could a lovely goddess who is willing to work hard to make potato pancakes for me and rub my back to relieve my fatigue be so selfish and useless?"
"Really? You're not saying that just to comfort me, are you?"
Saying "I love you" a thousand times is not as direct as a kiss. Mu Huai gently hugged Hestia's slender waist, and with the burning feelings in his heart, he kissed her cherry-red lips that were like delicate flowers.
Hestia's eyes were wide open, her legs were stretched straight from the toes to the thighs, and all the muscles in her body were tense. Her brain felt like it was hit hard by a hammer, and she was dizzy and unable to think.
“Plop, plop—”
The deafening heartbeat echoed in her ears, and the rhythm became faster and faster, as if it was going to burst her eardrums.
I, my first kiss was taken away by Mu Huai!
It was not until she breathed through her mouth subconsciously because she had held her breath to the limit, and felt a sensation that made her heart tremble but she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth, as if she was tasting her favorite honey, that Hestia clearly realized this matter.
Such close contact also made her realize how much she liked each other. She looked at the indelible doting between his brows, his focused black pupils, the reassuring aura around him, and the possessive little thought of wanting to turn her into a useless person.
She loves every strand of his hair and even his eyelashes!
After a long moment, Hestia placed her small hand on Mu Huai's chest and separated from him. A shy light flashed in her eyes, and she blushed as she whispered to him, "Mu Huai...give me some time, so I can be ready to give myself completely to you, okay?"
"Don't worry, we still have a lot of time, just take your time."
Lily, who had been left aside, finally squeezed half of her body in between the two of them, pouting and complaining softly: "Lady Hestia, Master Mu Huai, don't leave Lily out!"
Hestia clearly hadn't figured it out yet. She looked at Lily with trembling pupils. "You, you mean you want three people to... together... No, no, no, absolutely not. I'm a virgin after all. This can't be my first time!"
"Huh? Lily means she wants a kiss and a pat on the head, too..."
After making such an extremely embarrassing mistake, Hestia was on pins and needles. She immediately jumped off Mu Huai's thighs, covering her burning face, and ran straight to the bedroom on the second floor: "I, I want to sleep, don't disturb me!"
"Hehe, Lady Hestia really is... prone to misleading ideas, or perhaps too thin-skinned."
Lily showed a cunning smile of success, and a fluffy cat tail stretched out from behind her and gently wrapped around Mu Huai's arm: "Master Mu Huai, let's go take a bath together. Lily hasn't been your toy for a long time."

Chapter 20 Xiaonin: Is it difficult for him?
Early in the morning, Hestia and Lily took Mu Huai to the God's Clothing Customization Shop that Hephaestus mentioned to order new clothes. As soon as they walked out of the villa gate, the two women blocked his way as if facing a great enemy.
"Good morning, Mr. Mu Huai, Miss Lily, and Goddess Hestia."
"Not good at all, Mr. Hua, what are you doing at the door of our clan?"
It's a pity that their cute looks make them look more like two angry kittens in Aisi's eyes. Apart from scratching people with their claws, they don't pose much threat.
The thieving cat antenna in Hestia's heart was beeping. She stared intently at Ais's every move, as if she wanted to scare her away with her "sharp" eyes.
"I came to see Mr. Mu Huai because I'm very interested in him."
Ai Si's words hit the nail on the head. Hestia was so angry that she jumped three feet high. If she could beat Ai Si, a Lv. 5 adventurer, she would have rushed up to her and punched her away.
"You are not allowed to come near my Mu Huai!"
"Why? I just wanted to talk to him."
"What are you talking about? Talking is turning into love, right? Don't even think about it!"
Hestia bit her thumbnail unhappily. "As expected of Loki's family, you're full of conspiracies and tricks. Luckily, I'm smart enough."
"Lady Hestia is wise!"
Ai Si tilted her head in confusion, her golden eyes filled with bewilderment. "Can't we just talk?"
"Of course not!"
"Then what should you do to get Mr. Mu Huai to talk to me?"
"Gu! In order to date Mu Huai, you even started asking for conditions? Hakis, you bastard!"
Just when Hestia couldn't think of a reason to send Aisi away, Lily remembered the screening plan they had worked out yesterday and immediately said, "Miss Aisi, our clan has a rule that any woman over 1.55 meters tall who wants to come into contact with Master Mu Huai must pass a strict screening!"
"Yes, Lily is right!"
Hestia glanced at Lily approvingly, feeling that she was very reliable at the moment.
"I don't need physical contact with Mr. Mu Huai. I just want to talk to him. Is that not okay?"
"Ah this..."
Hestia and Lily quickly huddled together to look through their notebooks, only to discover that they hadn't set any restrictions on chatting.
"How about adding a temporary restriction?"
"That would make these rules seem like a joke. You can't do that, Lady Hestia!"
"Let me look for it again!"
Hestia took the notebook from Lily and flipped through it quickly. She couldn't find any response to Aisi's question, but she unexpectedly came across a strange entry: "Hestia-sama has no resistance to the topic of sese. She successfully used this method to bathe with Mu Huai-sama yesterday. You can use it more often in the future."
"Lily-kun! What is this!?"
No wonder my thieving cat radar has been ringing since I woke up this morning. It turns out that it wasn’t a premonition that Mr. Hua was coming, but that the thieving cat was right next to me!
Hestia felt her head turning green, and looked at Lily with a dark face.
