Soma continued staring at me for a few seconds without saying a word. I lost my patience and let out a long sigh.
"Are you really not going to do this? Do you want me to initiate a War Game just because of this?"
Of course, I wouldn't do something like that.
However, I need to make him yield somehow.
"You didn't have to suggest something so drastic."@@@@
"..."
"I don't have the right to keep her in my Familia. I failed to protect her. And you seem to care about her," Soma said in a monotone voice. He didn't seem particularly happy.
"You know Zanis wanted to use her, don't you?"
"..."
"If you didn't know, consider yourself warned! That idiot is someone you need to remove from the Familia as soon as possible. Lock him up and never let him out again."
"..."
"You seem to have some idea of what's going on. Well, since you already know about the dirty things that idiot has been doing, I guess I don't need to tell you everything I know."
"It's not necessary."
I took one last sip of wine and set the glass on the table. After that, I prepared to leave. "Deal with Zanis. I'll bring Lili here, and I don't want to see him here tomorrow."
"..."
Soma said nothing and watched me leave.
After closing the room door, I let out a long sigh of relief.
"I wasn't sure if I could handle the effects of the wine, but thankfully, it worked out. It was easier than I expected. Zanis tried to cause trouble, but luckily, everything turned out fine."
I hope Soma handles this properly, just like in the original story.
He shouldn't let the Familia remain under anyone else's control again.

*Soma's POV*
As soon as that strange boy left the room, I sighed and took another sip of my wine. "Lili, huh?" I thought of Liliruca—of all the pain I caused her. I didn't protect her, and I let her suffer.
I'm glad she's found someone who values her.
"You're worrying too much. I spoke to God, Soma; he must have already taken care of Zanis. I told you, didn't I? It was easier than it seems." Too easy.
After I told him how much I cared about Lili, he started listening to me.
That idiot even knew Zanis was exploiting the Familia. I guess my showing up was enough to 'wake him up.'
This 'arc' was so short it's disappointing.
I thought I'd have an interesting conflict with Soma Familia. Ultimately, God Soma 'woke up' and decided to handle all the problems.
"In the original story, things were more complicated. A huge conflict unfolded."
"Huh?"
"It's nothing. Tomorrow, we'll go there for the God to officially remove you from the Familia. Are you excited to become a member of Hestia Familia?"
"Of course I am! I can't wait to be by your side every day."

The next day, I went with Lili to Soma Familia's house. Unlike yesterday, there were two men at the entrance I didn't recognize. They opened the main door and let us in.
Lili was nervous and held my hand tightly.
"It's okay," I said, smiling at her.
I walked with Lili to the room where I'd met God Soma yesterday, assuming he would be there. When I reached the door and knocked, a voice came from inside. "Come in." It was God Soma's calm voice.
Lili's body trembled, and she clung to me.
"Stay calm. It's okay," I reassured Lili.
"I'm trying, but I can't stop shaking."
"It's fine," I said again before opening the door.
When the door opened, God Soma was wearing a grey robe. Lili hid behind me.
"I brought her. You'd better keep your word," I said to Soma.
"Don't worry. Come here," Soma said.
"Me?" Lili asked.
"Yes, you."
I encouraged her to approach him.
Without asking for anything in return, Soma removed Lili's falna, freeing her from Soma Familia.
