Chapter 639 New Reputation
Sophie became confused and asked, "Did he choose to escape the people\'s wrath?"
Hearing that, everyone couldn\'t help but chuckle, "That couldn\'t be further from the truth. He\'s the type of person that wouldn\'t care even if the entire world hated him."
Sophie frowned and continued asking, "So I presume that you\'ll be taking over the negotiations?"
"Yes. He entrusted everything to me. If you\'re worried, you don\'t need to, I can still do this properly."
Sophie immediately shook her head, "I\'m sorry, I gave the wrong impression. I just thought that he left because he finds this troublesome."
"..." Sona couldn\'t answer since that was actually the truth.
Sighing, Sophie pushed the conversation, "In any case, the Guild is still gathering the required documents and data before the negotiations start, so it\'ll probably take a few days to proceed further. For the moment, let me inform you that your Familia ranked up to D so you\'ll have to take Guild-issued quests. Two of those every month to be precise."
"Understood. We\'ll accept it."
"And another thing. Adventurers would probably flood to you, hoping to enter your Familia.", reminded Sophie.
.

.
As Sophie had said, when they arrived at the mansion that came from Apollo and that they\'d be using from now on, there were already several Adventurers waiting.
Before they could even speak, each one of them started their sales pitch. Not trying to be rude, Sona chose to wait for them to finish speaking and came to know that three of them were Level 1s, four of them were Level 2s, and one of them was a Level 3.
But despite their best efforts to sell themselves, Sona answered with a strict tone, "I\'m sorry but we\'re not accepting new members as of now."
Everyone but the Level 3 sighed and gave up, choosing to retreat after her refusal.
But the lone man couldn\'t easily accept it, "You\'re now rank D, right? Think about it, the quests which the Guild will be issuing from now on would keep on getting harder and you\'ll need additional members. I\'m a Level 3 and would prove to be more useful than most people out there! You should accept me as it\'s very rare for someone of my Level to apply to such a small Familia!"
Sona carefully looked at this man and saw a disgusting glint in his eyes. Figuring out his real intentions, Sona frowned but still chose to be civil, "I\'m really sorry, but we don\'t need additional members as of now. We can take care of ourselves just fine."
Losing his patience, the man raised his voice, "You can\'t use that reason! Sooner or later, you\'ll have to increase the size of your Familia due to you needing to venture deeper into the Dungeon! Besides, I\'m already a big asset that you can take advantage of! What\'s the need for hesitation!?"
At that point, Sona already gave up and fixed her glasses while looking straight into the man\'s eyes, "Fine."
The man smiled widely as he thought he succeeded until Sona continued her words, "However, only after you can take it standing or dodge a single attack from Koneko here."
The man was about to interrupt her but after hearing Sona\'s words, he grinned, "Just a single attack from a fellow Level 3? That\'s easy! As long as I don\'t take that attack that destroyed the wall, I\'ll be fine! Besides, that attack has such a long preparation time to initiate that I can easily dodge it. Looks like this is just for show and you\'ve already accepted me."
Their banter attracted the people around them and they had the same thought as the applying man. Just dodging or taking an attack was easy enough. Even a Level 2 could do it, much less a Level 3.
Koneko, on the other hand, looked towards Sona and heard her say, "Do it.", with an evil grin.
Since she also felt his disgusting stare, Koneko nodded with great enthusiasm before positioning herself, 10 meters away from the man.
The man also readied himself with a smile and said, "I\'m ready!"
But before they started, Sona added, "Before that, I\'ll have you agree that the injury you\'ll take if you can\'t endure it won\'t be our responsibility. Everyone around us will be the witness."
The man\'s smile didn\'t change as he unhesitantly said, "I agree! Bring it on!"
Sona then took out a bronze coin and said, "The moment this coin lands on the ground, you can start.", and flipped it up.
At this time, a big crowd had already gathered around them, waiting for the result of this duel. But everyone who knew of the context thought the man could easily pass this.
The man focused all of his attention on Koneko, who was still standing still until he heard the coin\'s clang. However, the cat person he was watching suddenly disappeared from her spot without any warning and he heard a small voice below him, "Down here."
When the man looked down, it was already too late as Koneko\'s leg was already between his legs, aiming for his precious junk without mercy, "Ei."
In an instant, the man flew several tens of meters up in the air with a screeching voice in extreme pain, "AAAAHHHH!!!!!!"
Not understanding what was going on, the man landed with a frothing mouth, losing his consciousness instantly.
The stunned crowd inevitably had their eyes land on the man\'s destroyed junk and saw his crotch bleeding.
At that sight, all the men around them hurriedly closed their legs in horror, with cold sweat draping their backs.
Without minding everyone\'s reaction, Sona displayed her evilest grin to everyone and said, "I\'m sorry, but you\'ve failed~. As agreed upon, we have no responsibility for your injury. Please take care of yourself in the future."
Everyone who was watching shuddered as her evil intention was revealed to everyone. They could only look on in fear at the Devil with glasses as she turned around to enter the mansion followed by her fellow party members.
But before the gate was closed, Sona stopped walking and turned to everyone with a smile, "I\'m here to make it clear to everyone that neither the Hestia Familia nor the Artemis Familia are accepting any new members for the moment. But for those who want to prove themselves while looking at us with disgusting intentions, you\'ll have to duel one of our members to be accepted first."
At that moment, everyone understood what had just transpired. The man looked at them with lust and received his reckoning. But some of them couldn\'t blame the man as everyone from the Hestia and Artemis Familia\'s were top-class beauties that even Gods would be attracted to.
Soon enough, this event would spread, along with the unfortunate man\'s medical report of his manhood being saved only because he used his life\'s savings to buy an Elixir.
\'If you anger the Devil in glasses, she\'ll destroy you,\' This phrase would start to gain traction as more people tried to enter their Familia with malintentions.
