"No! I can't bear to watch anymore!"
The Adventurers who had been treated by Hyacine and Barbara during this time all showed expressions of pity. They could hardly imagine what kind of treatment the two Healer girls would receive next.
Apollo might be one thing, but the captain of the Apollo Familia, Hyacinthus, was not someone to be trifled with!
This guy would strike ruthlessly and beat someone black and blue just because he was jealous of them being more favored by Apollo.
And now, Hyacine and Barbara were the ones Apollo had his eye on. It was hard to imagine what Hyacinthus would do in the future. Even with Apollo's orders, he would probably still target these two girls openly or secretly, right?
How tragic...
However, there were already many tragic people in Orario.
For a long time in the past, outsiders had become Adventurers and died in the Dungeon.
Those who died are no longer mentioned by anyone now.
And the reason Hyacine and Barbara stirred some emotion in the surrounding Adventurers was only because they had healed others.
But if another week passed, they would probably be like those other Adventurers, no longer mentioned.
The surrounding noise grew louder, but it completely failed to affect the world in the middle of the plaza.
"Since it is Lord Apollo's command, you should accept it and join Lord Apollo's Familia."
Hyacinthus looked at the two girls before him expressionlessly. Although his heart was currently filled with jealousy, Lord Apollo was behind him, and other Adventurers and gods were nearby, so he couldn't lose face and began to persuade the two girls to give up resistance.
"If you are willing to join, you can suffer much less pain... otherwise, don't blame me for being heartless!"
This was a good excuse. If the other party refused, Hyacinthus could rightfully beat them to vent the jealousy in his heart.
Even if they were women, so what?
In Hyacinthus's eyes, there was only ever Apollo. He didn't care about any other gods or people.
Just like the Chengdu Superman, when he looks back at a woman, he only curses, "You stinking xx."
"Sorry, we don't accept!"
Faced with the threats from Apollo, Hyacinthus, and the others, both Hyacine and Barbara showed very clear resistance.
Although she did have the idea of attracting Familias, these uninvited guests came a bit too quickly, didn't they? Do they all have noses like dogs?
Despite the surprise, her goal was achieved. Since the Apollo Familia chose to come and invite them, it meant the eyes of the Orario upper management had already fallen on her, and more powerful Familias would soon come to invite them.
And now, Hyacine and Barbara only needed to crush the Apollo Familia before them to buy themselves time.
"Forcing others is wrong. If you must compel us, then resistance is our only path."
"Is that so? Then what a shame."
Hearing Hyacine and Barbara's explicit refusal, both Apollo and Hyacinthus laughed. This actually fit their expectations perfectly.
"Hyacinthus, knock them out and take them away."
"Once the deed is done, no one will be able to take them from my side, Apollo!"
From Hyacine and Barbara, Apollo felt a familiar yet strange aura. Although he didn't know what it was, he absolutely did not want to give up.
"Pay attention, move out!"
As the cold words fell, Hyacinthus disappeared from his spot, rushing towards Hyacine and Barbara with unimaginable speed.
Even among the surrounding Adventurers, only a very small number could see his movements clearly.
This was the holder of a Level 3 divine protection, standing at heights unattainable for ordinary people. Even Hyacine and Barbara's own speed was not nearly as fast as his...
However, this did not mean they were unable to counterattack.
