"Who agrees? Who objects?"
This was said as if they still had a choice to object.
The representatives silently rolled their eyes at Finn.
However, they also understood that what Finn said made sense.
Giving themselves time to prepare was actually giving the opposing Dark Faction time to struggle or escape.
It was the right decision to act as soon as possible and catch them all in one fell swoop before the enemy could react, especially while they held the advantage in strength.
"Our Guild is naturally obligated to participate in this operation. Since the ability of the Hestia Familia has been guaranteed by the Loki Familia, then I do not think there is any need to question anything. On behalf of the Guild, I agree to cooperate with the operation."
The Guild representative immediately agreed to participate.
After all, even the Loki Familia had been convinced. With the Loki Familia and Hestia Familia—these two top-tier Familias—insisting on taking action, they could not stop it.
So, instead of raising objections, it was better to cooperate obediently.
Although it meant being coerced, there was no other way. This was the only choice they had now that could affect the outcome of the operation.
"The Goibniu Familia also agrees to participate in the operation."
"We, the Ganesha Familia, also agree to participate."
The Dian Cecht Familia also agreed.
"Me too."
"Plus one."
With the Guild representative taking the lead, other representatives also expressed their willingness to cooperate.
After all, the Guild represented the collective of all Orario's Familias to a certain extent.
Even if they did not agree now, they would have to go back and hold a Denatus to get the main gods of each Familia to agree.
Instead of going through so much trouble, it was better to agree now, so that at least they could leave a good impression.
However, Allen Fromel from the Freya Familia had remained silent.
"Representative Allen?"
Finn looked at him with some doubt.
The others were also confused as to why Allen still had not expressed his position.
Given the obvious shift in momentum, could he still choose to act unsociably?
"I cannot make a decision for Goddess Freya on this matter. I have to go back and report to the Goddess before I can give an answer."
Allen shook his head, stating he had no right to agree to this.
Unlike representatives of other Familias who had a certain say, the situation of the Freya Familia was special. Freya had always been in control, and the members basically only obeyed Freya's instructions on such important matters, voluntarily giving up their autonomy.
Therefore, Allen could not make promises on behalf of the Freya Familia now.
He did not have such authority.
Hearing this explanation, everyone understood immediately.
The rest of Orario's Familias knew the situation of the Freya Familia.
Almost all members were fiercely devoted to their main god, Freya; they were very obedient and considered outliers among the Familias.
They hadn't realized it just now, but now they understood.
Allen added: "But I believe that if Goddess Freya knew of this, she would agree."
When a matter reached this level, it was a major issue of right and wrong. Regarding something of this magnitude, no matter how strong the Freya Familia was, it was impossible to go against the choice of the majority without a valid reason.
"In this case, let us adjourn the meeting. I ask everyone to return and inform your respective Familias, then send your spokespersons again to discuss the specific details of the operation."
Finn stopped wasting time and announced the adjournment.
He added one last sentence:
"By the way, due to temporary confidentiality requirements, we will send people to secretly escort you back. We hope for your understanding."
No one objected to this behavior, which was called escorting but was actually monitoring. After all, confidentiality was paramount.
Accepting the surveillance of the Loki Familia also served as a layer of protection for their own Familias.
If news leaked, this surveillance would become their amulet to avoid suspicion.
Even if there was a problem within one of their Familias, such as an undercover agent, the Loki Familia, as the monitors, would also bear part of the responsibility.
...
Afterwards, these representatives, escorted by members of the Loki Familia sent by Finn, returned to their respective Familias and reported the matter.
The main gods and captains attached great importance to it and responded immediately. While ordering their personnel to gather, they set off to participate in a consultation meeting regarding the operation details.
The Freya Familia also confirmed their reply with practical action, sending out their captain, Ottar.
The members of the Loki Familia did not withdraw but stayed outside the Familia stations to continue monitoring, ensuring no undercover agents could pass on news.
As for the detailed consultation meeting?
There was not much to say about it. It was simply an announcement of the investigation method and the distribution of tasks to each Familia.
The situation was urgent, and the meeting ended in less than an hour.
The leaders quickly returned to their stations and began organizing preparations for the operation.
That night, all of Orario was very quiet.
Uninformed people did not notice this small change and remained as usual, as if nothing had happened.
But secretly, the entire city began to take frantic action, and a turbulent undercurrent was brewing.
Just like a bowstring pulled tight, waiting for the opportunity to release, it would rush out to attack and devour the locked target!
...
The night passed without incident, and the next morning arrived in the blink of an eye.
Takumi, the instigator, slept in the Twilight Manor without any tension.
Just after dawn, he was woken up by Riveria next to him.
"The Familia team has arrived, and the guests from other worlds you invited have also arrived in Dimensional City. It is time to get up and get down to business."
Hearing this, Takumi suddenly woke up and stood up quickly.
He cast a cleansing magic on himself to clean up.
"What is the situation now? How are Finn's preparations going?"
"Finn has notified all the major Familias, and they are ready. The truth-telling tools have been distributed, and they are conducting the final self-examination."
This operation was very important, and the major Familias dared not be careless.
So, after receiving the truth-telling tools, the first thing they did was check their own people to prevent any undercover agents from hiding among them.
"Is there any movement from the Dark Faction?"
"No, Najenda went to monitor again yesterday. She just reported in ten minutes ago."
"Okay, I will go pick everyone up. Tell Finn to take action when I give the signal."
"Alright, go ahead."
Takumi wasted no time; he opened the dimensional gate and returned to Dimensional City.
Then, he saw five figures chatting at the door of the reception center next to the dimensional gate.
