"I heard a Familia specializing in agriculture will be distributing food rations tomorrow to those who have lost their livelihoods. That's some good news, at least." Mika said with a smile.

"Food rations?" Alise and Gojouno exclaimed. Orario's citizens had been severely impacted by the recent clashes between the Familias and the dark faction.

Many businesses had closed, leaving countless people without income. The city was suffering, and many, driven by hunger, had resorted to crime.

This put a heavy strain on the Ganesha Familia.

Mika, through his conversations with Finn, knew that several merchants were secretly collaborating with the dark faction, hoping to gain access to magic stones without having to go through the Guild, which held a monopoly on them.

They didn't realize that the dark faction's true objective wasn't to replace the Guild, but to destroy the world—or rather, the human world. After all, even they couldn't reach the heavens where the gods resided.

'Foolish People,' Mika thought to himself.

"We should help out tomorrow," Ryuu said. According to their schedule, the Yahweh Familia was assigned to patrol the industrial district the following day, which meant the Astraea Familia was free to assist with the food distribution.

"Then we'll leave it to you," Mika said with a smile. "Make sure you do your best, for all of us."

"You can count on us!" Alise declared.

...

"Ah, what a beautiful day!" Mika said, lying on the roof of a factory in the industrial district, enjoying the gentle breeze.

Airmid sat beside him, her lap serving as his pillow.

"Are you sure it's alright for us to be slacking off like this?" she asked with a smile, looking down at his closed eyes.

"Of course it is. Everything's under control," he replied, not bothering to open his eyes.

"Mellie is patrolling the area on Fufu's back. We'll switch with her when she gets tired. With Fufu's abilities, one of us is more than enough for this task. Why send three?"

"You just want to relax, don't you?" she teased, gently stroking his hair.

"Not at all!" he protested, opening his eyes.

Just then, Mellie's voice called out from above.

"Mika!"

"What is it?" He sat up immediately.

'Thump!' Mellie landed on the roof beside them.

"I saw a fight happening in the distance."

"A fight?" Mika stood up. "Where?"

"Near the food distribution area!"

Mika looked in the direction she indicated, then sat back down.

"Mika, why aren't you worried?" Airmid asked, noticing his calm demeanor.

"Why should I be?"

"You're concerned about the food distribution, aren't you? There's no need to worry. Besides the Astraea Familia, Gareth from the Loki Familia is also there."

"Gareth is there too?" Airmid relaxed. With Gareth having reached Level 6, no one in the dark faction, besides Alfia and Zald, could match his strength.
