Hestia was stunned when she heard this; she didn't expect Takumi to propose such a condition.
Hephaestus was also startled, and then looked at Takumi with sharp eyes.
"Don't you think this request is too excessive?"
The moment you open your mouth, you directly want to have absolute control over the Familia.
For them, who came to the Lower World just to play the Familia game, this was undoubtedly touching the bottom line.
It is not even a question of overstepping or not; this can be said to be offensive. Although it is not impossible for the gods to hand over the affairs of the Familia to the captains of their respective groups.
But!
It is the gods' own choice whether to give this power or not.
I can give it, but you can't take the initiative to seize it!
And there is no god who would completely hand over power. Even if the authority is handed over to the captain, the gods themselves still retain the final decision-making power over the affairs of the Familia.
Because the update of the Status requires the gods to do it themselves, this was also taken into consideration when setting it up. This way, the gods can have absolute control over the Familia.
Now Takumi actually said that the management of the Familia will be completely handed over to him.
Isn't this the same as saying that he wants Hestia to be just a Tool God who updates the Status?!
Isn't this offensive?
Takumi's reaction was very nonchalant.
He shrugged and said: "No way, joining the Familia is actually of no benefit to me, and it is not necessary."
"And once you join, there will be more troubles due to the Familia affairs. In that case, shouldn't I continue to develop Dimension City instead?"
Doesn't he know that this condition is offensive?
But that's the fact. He has to consider himself.
It doesn't matter whether he is selfish or unkind.
He doesn't want to change the development and planning of 'Dimension City' in this main world, and he needs to take this as a priority.
Instead of waiting to have an unpleasant breakup with Hestia later, it is better to make everything clear now.
Seeing Takumi's firm attitude, Hephaestus slowly withdrew her gaze.
She was also a sensible person, so she naturally understood Takumi's concerns, so she did not blame Takumi. She looked at Hestia, who was seriously considering Takumi's conditions, with a tangled look on her face. She said seriously, "Hestia, you have to think about it carefully, this is no small matter."
Hestia nodded under great pressure.
After struggling for a while, she still hesitated and asked Takumi, "Can you tell me, if I agree, how will you manage the Familia?"
Takumi thought for a while and then said bluntly: "First of all, I will not accept the Falna, at least not for the time being."
Although there is no problem in accepting it. He has a System and will not be restricted by Hestia.
But if he does not accept the Falna, he can easily withdraw when necessary and avoid some troubles.
As soon as these words came out, Hestia's face suddenly fell, and Hephaestus's face darkened.
Takumi continued: "Secondly, I will strictly control the review of Familia members, and basically only let people I trust join, essentially treating it as a training institution for my private forces."
The reason why he doesn't accept the Falna is because of the System.
But the people around him in the future will not have such cheats.
I don't know how many resources he can provide from the System.
Therefore, he can let these people all join the Familia and train in Orario. In addition to increasing their strength, they can also try to see if they can become gods and gain eternal life after reaching the max level.
If it is true, it will save him a lot of resources.
"In the end, it is up to me to make the final decision on major matters. These are probably the three requirements."
When Hephaestus heard the second point, her face had completely turned cold.
Because according to Takumi, he was planning to completely take over the Familia as his own!
Every Familia belongs to their respective gods; Takumi's approach is to meddle with things that belong to the gods!
Hestia did not feel too offended, but was still disappointed that Takumi was unwilling to accept the Falna.
If he did not accept the Falna, this meant that Takumi did not belong to her.
This was very uncomfortable for Hestia, who really wanted to win Takumi into her family.
Before Hephaestus could scold him, Takumi then said: "Of course, I am not an unreasonable person."
"If you are willing to accept these three conditions, Hestia, then I will also provide you with some compensation."
"For example, because this has become an official organization under Dimension City, the Hestia Familia will receive support from Dimension City."
"This support includes but is not limited to military force, money, personnel, resources, etc."
"And in addition to major matters related to the development of the Familia, Hestia, you can still have some rights to make your own decisions on other matters."
"In addition to the management of member recruitment and transfer, basically on Orario's side, you can do whatever you want, and if something goes wrong, I will support you."
"Moreover, only 20% of the profits gained in the dungeon will be handed over, and the rest will all belong to the Familia. Hestia, you can take it as you like, and I will not use the part handed over unless necessary; you manage it."
"Finally, members of the Familia can go on adventures in other worlds in the future, and their growth space is no longer limited to the dungeons of Orario."
To put it simply, as long as you accept the recruitment, not only will Big Daddy support you, but he will even give you a better future.
Hephaestus also heard the meaning and looked at Takumi deeply, and stopped the scolding she was about to say.
Because of these conditions, she was a little moved when she heard them.
Especially the last point, allowing members of the Familia to go on adventures and experience other worlds.
This is undoubtedly better than just practicing in Orario's dungeon. There should be more possibilities and it would be easier to upgrade!
Of course, it would also be more dangerous.
But with Takumi taking control and taking care of everything, the risk is actually not that big.
Moreover, there are also the military and financial resources of Dimension City. Assistance, this will be even more helpful to Hestia who has just started!
Even when Dimension City develops in the future, it will be equivalent to having a big backer behind it, and there is no fear of being bullied by other Familia in Orario!
Hephaestus is quite optimistic about the future of Takumi and Dimension City. Apart from anything else, she could tell from Kuro and Yuki she saw when she came here.
These two Inferno Wolves are not weak, and they can probably challenge Lv. 6 adventurers in Orario without losing.
And Takumi can conquer them, which shows that Takumi's strength is not bad either.
In the future, with Dimension City backing, Hestia definitely has the strength to stand in Orario.
So Hephaestus didn't say anything or object. She stood aside and watched, leaving the decision-making power to Hestia.
And Hestia was also moved, but still looked confused.
After hesitating for a long time, she slowly spoke: "The last question..."
