Chapter 13: Syr's Service Fee!
After the cat-eared waitress left, Syr looked discontentedly at Ethan.
He was still fooling around outside, oblivious to his current status. After all, she had paid to support him.
As a goddess, Freya's possessiveness was terrifying.
Anything she desired was off-limits to others, and she would go to any lengths to secure it, even if it belonged to someone else.
"It seems you're quite popular, adventurer, sir."
"Hmm?"
Syr's voice sounded in Ethan's ear, and he raised his head in confusion.
Looking at the goddess with a clearly unhappy expression, Ethan was filled with question marks.
What's going on? What did I do this time?
Seeing Ethan looking utterly bewildered, Syr also realized that this time it couldn't be blamed on him; after all, he knew nothing from start to finish.
"Want a piece?"
Ethan picked up a piece of grilled meat and handed it over.
There were more than twenty pieces of grilled meat on the plate, each with a substantial portion.
Ethan was enjoying the meal, but it was still expensive – twelve thousand two hundred Valis for all this meat.
After all the calculations, it seemed like it was not enough.
"No need~"
After saying that with a flick of her expression, Syr turned and walked away, still angry.
"What does 'Want a piece?' mean? Does this mean her mind was all about eating?
However, after venting her anger, Syr arrived in the kitchen and chuckled.
This feeling was the first time she had encountered it in thousands of years since coming to the mortal world.
It's important to note that as a goddess, in front of mortal children, she was always a lofty and unapproachable existence.
Even for members of her own Familia, she was the supreme deity, and they revered her immensely.
Now, Ethan's attitude towards her was a new experience.
He obviously feared her in his heart, but there wasn't much respect, especially after recognizing her. His attitude towards her remained unchanged.
For a goddess, or more accurately, a being who had been in high position for far too long, this was an undoubtedly unique experience.
Throughout the ages, Freya had been searching for her partner (Odr), and all the children of her Familia were possibilities for Odr.
This intense internal competition within Freya Familia led everyone to want to be the most outstanding, to be chosen by the goddess as her Odr (exclusive partner).
However, they didn't know that the moment they were captivated by Freya's "charm," they permanently lost this qualification.
She was the goddess of beauty, and she never lacked "love."
Whether divine or mortal, as long as she wished, she could easily obtain their "love" - selfless love, willing to overturn everything for her, absolute love, twisted love, and so on.
On the flip side, if she were to bestow her "love," countless people would compete fiercely for it.
Like the 'contradictions' of the 'wealthy,' such 'love' in Freya's eyes began to feel 'dull.'
