Negotiations

"What does the Guild want with the Soma Familia? Why are you here?" He says lazily looking uninterested in me being here. I smile at him.

"Shall we take this inside I rather do business with not many people around." I say to Soma as I see the Captin looked agitated.

"Very well you may come in." He says as he walks inside as I follow I then look at Hestia and see she was about to say someone but I stopped her.

"You said the pallum was inside against her own will correct." I ask her as she nods

"Very well leave everything to me, Goddess. Do note that you owe me for this."
I smile at her as I made my way inside.

POV-

Sophia sat down on a red couch with Soma and Zanisu on the other side of her. Zanisu was the first to speak.

"Alright what is it does the Guild want?! It's late in the night for you to be here!" He yells agitated almost seeming nervous. Sophia only took out a document out of a bag and gave it to Soma. As Soma read the paper even though you can't see his eyes due to his hair you can see a frown appear on his face.

"What is this...?" Soma says as Sophia calmly replies to him.

"Its a document of your crimes over the past few months. Tax Evasion, Fraud, and disturbance of the peace. The punishment of these crimes is to pay 1 million valis and a restriction from the Guild." Sophia says as Zanisu stands up from his seat.

"How dare you don't have proof of-"

Before he can say anything else Sophia put down the documents that she got from them with a few other papers that she got from the Guild. They both looked at the papers shocked as Soma only frowned at the evidence as Zanisu gritted his teeth. Sophia only smiled the whole time.

"H-how did you get this!" Zanisu said as Sophia responded.

"We have our ways. Anyways I'd you don't pay the fine in the next 12 hours the Soma Gamilia will be kicked out of Orario." Sophia said there was a long silence with everyone until Sophia spoke again.

"However I do believe I can pull some strings and help you out God of Wine."

Sophia said as Soma looked up.

"Please give the Pallum that you have in custody to the Hestia then maybe I can....put this under the rug." Sophia only smiles as Zanisu was about to say something. However, Soma stopped him.

"Very well I accept. I apologize that my Familia has caused so much trouble and will be disciplined for the trouble we've caused." Soma says bowing his head to Sophia as Zanisu looked shocked.

Soma lifted his head and Zanisu saw Soma glaring at him making Zanisu have a bit of a cold sweat.

"That's good to hear now I expect payment of the 1 million valis in the Guild by in the next 12 hours and we will send someone every so often to check on the Soma Familia." Sophia says

"What!! You just said you would sweep it under!" Zanisu yelled at Sophia.

Sadly Zanisu demeanor quickly changed from hostility to fear as he saw Sophia eyes turn red.

"You are correct but I didn't pardon you of your other crime of getting monsters from the dungeon and bringing them to the surface. As well as selling them to the black market." Sophia said as Zanisu backed away.

"Y-you-" Zanisu was about to say something but was interpreted by Soma.

"Is this true Zanisu?" Soma questioned him as Zanisu gave no response. Pretty much answering Somas question as Soma turned back to Sophia.

"I apologize for for my Familias actions we will pay the fine and other consequences."

Soma said as Sophia only turned her head to the side.

"By the looks of it you didn't know any of this was happening in your Familia didn't you?" Sohpia asked as shook his head.

"I see well I'll be taking my leave." Sophia got up and was about to leave the room.

"Y-you Bitch! I'm going-" Once again before he could say another word Sophia looked him with her red eyes as Zanisu couldn't help but feel fear course through his body. Even Soma who looked to be calmly sitting on the couch not looking at Sophia's eyes couldn't help but have chill go up his spine.

"Going to do what..." Sophia said staring down at the scared man in front of her. This lasted for a couple of seconds before Sophia finally decided to leave.

/////////////////////////////////////

Sophia stood outside looking up at the night sky waiting for Hestia to stop speaking with her group of of other peoples Familias. After she was done Sophia finally made her appearance in front of Lili and Hestia.

"Hello Goddess, Pallum fine evening were having." Sophia says to the both of them as Hestia smiles.

"Ah Sophia! Thank you so much for helping us out there. I don't know how you did it but it saved us some trouble." Hestia says as Lili nods in agreement.

"Yes thank you so much for helping us Sophia." Lili says smiling brightly as Sophia smiles back.

"Well I wouldn't thank me yet. Hestia you still owe me for helping you." Sophia says as Hestiias smile changed from happiness to sadness.

"A-ah right what can I do to make up for helping us out." Hestia looked at Sophia ready to hear the what Sophia wants.

Sophia only smiled at Hestia which only disturbed Hestia from the the way Sophia smiled. Then Sophia spoke shocking both Hestia and Lili.

"I would like you to hire me."
