Seeing that her great-niece had made up her mind, Hestia waved her hand helplessly.
"Fine, do as you wish. I can't manage these affairs anyway."
"You make it sound so easy, but if you really could let go, would you need to squat in Knossos City all day long?"
Athena gave Hestia across from her an unimpressed look, bluntly exposing her aunt's insincerity.
The Goddess of the Hearth's cheeks turned slightly red upon hearing this, and she stubbornly argued with her neck stuck out.
"I just like the food here, like the atmosphere of life here!"
"Yes, yes, right…"
Athena responded insincerely, her gaze brimming with mockery.
Under her niece's smiling gaze, the increasingly embarrassed Hestia's face flushed, and she rose angrily to shoo her away.
"Go on, get, don't bother me if there's nothing important!"
"Fine, fine, I'm leaving, okay?"
Athena raised her hands in surrender, got up from her seat, and beckoned Nike in the backyard to withdraw as well.
