Chapter 41 - Come and join our Familia. How will I win Lili over?

Now that the contract is signed, I need to wait. The woman named Sonia gave me a deadline of one week for the books to start being sold. It will still take a little while, but it's good to have a deadline.

And now, I have nothing to do. I could go to Welf to convince him, but I must complete this daily mission first. I can't lose Lili. I can't let this mission fail.

We left the library, and the first thing we did was walk in silence together. I had no plan to make her fall in love with me.

With my skill [Charming Aura], shouldn't I talk to her until she falls for me? It would be nice if it were that simple.

The best thing I can do now is take her out to have fun with me.

"Do you want something to eat? We can buy some sweets from those stalls." I pointed to some stalls in the distance. They were common around here. Stalls selling bread, meat, sweets.

"Okay... but I don't have any money," Lili said.

"Don't worry, I'll pay for everything. I brought money." I took the money out of my pocket, and we went together to a stall that sold sweets similar to crepes. I don't remember this food existing in the anime, but it does here.

The filling was sweet. It was practically pure sugar. But even so, it was pretty tasty. Lili enjoyed it; it seemed the most delicious thing she had ever eaten.

"It's good, right? But I wouldn't say I like sweet things much. I prefer to eat pasta. I know how to make many pasta dishes."

"You know how to cook?"

"Yes. Unfortunately, I don't have a stove at home, so I can't cook. I plan to buy a new house soon, and when I do, I want to get one with a big kitchen."

"You plan to buy a house? But isn't that expensive? You're still a novice adventurer, aren't you?"

"When my books start selling, I'll make a lot of money."

"You are confident, aren't you?" Lili took her last bite of her crepe and then laughed. "I hope everything goes well."

I looked at her silently and stopped walking.

"Lili, what do you think about coming to live with us after I buy a new house? With our Familia."

"Eh?" Lili froze and then got nervous. "No, that's impossible, I can't do that."

"... What do you think about at least considering it? I'll help you if you want to join our Familia. I may be acting very invasive, but it would be good for you to stay with me and Goddess Hestia."

"It's better if we don't talk about this. Let's talk about your book instead." Lili was smiling, but I could tell she was very nervous.

I know her situation is not good, and bringing her to our Familia won't be easy, but I'll do everything to make it possible. I need to make it clear to her that I will help her. Maybe then she will fall for me.

"What are you thinking about?" Lili asked.

"I was thinking about you."

"Stop saying things like that. Come on, don't you want to eat something?" Lili said with a red face. "We should eat real food, not just sweets. Let's eat somewhere."

"You're acting so impatient all of a sudden."

"I just want you to stop talking about your Familia. Ah... but..." Lili remembered that she had no money, but I said again that I would pay for everything. So, I grabbed Lili's hand.

When I held her small and soft hand, Lili was surprised and almost pulled away, but she didn't. She squeezed my hand, and we walked together towards a nearby restaurant.

Her face is very red. She is dying of embarrassment! I'm on the right track!

I need to say nice things to her, maintain some physical contact, and take advantage of the effects of the [Charming Aura] skill.

We went to a nearby restaurant. A restaurant I had never seen before. It looked like a luxury restaurant since all the clients wore nice clothes. Besides, the place's appearance was quite sophisticated.

When we entered, Lili lowered her head.

"No need to be embarrassed, let's go in." I pulled her inside, and we sat at a table near the exit. It was a large hall with several tables. All the tables were white and elegant.

There was even a flower in the center.

Even with her hood on, I noticed Lili's drooping ears. She was very nervous.

"Welcome. Would you like to order an appetizer or a drink?" An old man in a suit offered us a menu with appetizers and drinks.

Lili said nothing. She just looked at the menu, and her eyes widened.

The prices were absurd.

The price of a portion of toast was the same as a meal at the Hostess of Fertility.

"I'll have a toast and two glasses of water. Oh, and bring the main menu."

"Yes, of course." The man looked at me with disdain and walked away.

Lili was still nervous.

"Don't be so nervous. Let's eat something nice and then leave, okay?"

"We should have gone to a cheaper restaurant..."

In a few minutes, our toast and water were served. Then we ordered a meal each. It was expensive, but I have the money to pay for everything. But even though the food was delicious, it was an awful lunch. I hate that restaurant.

Also, we had lunch way too early!

When we finished eating, it wasn't even eleven in the morning!

We left the restaurant, and I held Lili's hand again. She was calm this time.

"What do you think about going to my room? You said you wanted to finish reading. Oh, and I'll start writing the second volume."

"Huh? You're already starting to write?"

"Yes. I want to take advantage of you being here with me. I feel more motivated to write when you're by my side since you like to read."

"..." Lili liked what I said.
