In the dining room of Marquess Rommel’s family, Lily enjoyed a special meal with loving spoonfuls from Ciel and Sia.

Ciel and Sia fought over food and drinks to feed Lily.

As a sweet younger sibling who respects her older sibling, Ciel respects Lily by looking for the best food using her mouth and giving her food that tastes best.

Meanwhile, as an older sibling who just got an adorable new sibling. Sia pampers Lily by giving her the best drink she found on Marquess Rommel’s dining table using her lips and then kissing Lily’s lips to pour it into Lily’s mouth.

Lily could only smile and accept their treatment in equal turn. Deep in her mind, she fully realized that all this happened because she showed ability from the Yurification System.

Lily realized that the Yurification System was able to change a woman’s mindset and behavior towards her through a kiss that was affected by the Linked Ritual.

So far, Lily has always doubted her physical appearance which is far different from normal humans. Her dark brown skin became a symbol of a curse circulating among the nobility and created bad rumors about Lily as an ugly monster that imitated a human body.

Her long silver hair and white pupils have now turned bright red because they absorbed the power of the Yurification System, further clarifying the rumors circulating about her turning into a monster.

Thanks to the Yurification System, the physical ugliness slowly changed. The charm of her dark brown skin now has its unique charm that is so enchanting, her long silver hair is a crown of beauty that is difficult to explain for a woman, and her red gaze can give absolute orders that cannot be denied even for a Queen of the kingdom.

Lily’s abilities developed further after Ciel and Sia performed the Linked Ritual with her. The power of the nine-tailed fox race can be seen from the number of tails that come out of her body. The Yurification System, which has just received a patch update from Goddess, can fully access the power of the nine-tailed fox in Lily’s body.

In other words, Lily can easily change her human race into a nine-tailed fox race directly without using the fox mask that came from the gift of her close relationship with Mio.

The unique ability of the Yurification System also applies to Sia’s power. As one of the heavenly dragon races, their dragon race’s abilities are far above those of other dragon races. Their caste differences can be seen from the horns that grow on their heads.

The smaller and harder their horns are, the higher their race’s standing in the group of other dragon races and Lily can access the power of her heavenly dragon race thanks to the help of the Yurification System.

A very extraordinary blessing from the Goddess has been bestowed upon Lily who has become a symbol of disaster and curse in the eyes of humans.

Of course, behind that great power, there is also great jealousy. Moreover, jealousy between women is very difficult to control because women’s nature always follows their feelings.

Ciel and Sia may be happily feeding Lily. However, Mio’s sharp gaze that stabs their backs can be perfectly hard to ignored and the collaboration attack of the killing aura from Lily’s two younger stepsisters.

Mio, Alice, and Alyssa form a temporary alliance to fight two races beyond their abilities.

"Lily-sama!"

"Onee-sama!"

"Lily-nee!"

Mio, Alice, and Alyssa who couldn’t stand the discrimination against Ciel and Sia tried to protest to fight Lily back into their arms.

Their sullen faces decorated Lily’s anxiety who looked at them with an awkward expression.

"Umm... W-Why?" Lily could only smile a little seeing their serious facial expressions.

"This isn’t fair! Why is only this cat allowed to feed Onee-sama?!" Alice exclaimed while pointing at Ciel.

"C-Cat?" Ciel’s fox ears moved slightly when she heard Alice call her a cat.

"Right! Why does this lizard look familiar with Lily-nee?!" Alyssa exclaimed while pointing at Sia.

"L-Lizard?" Sia’s dragon tail looked tense when she heard Alyssa call herself a lizard.

"Ahem! Sorry to disturb your comfort, Ciel-sama... Sia-sama... Aren’t you a little bit forcing Lily-sama to accept every mouthful of your food and drink? Moreover, it’s your time to go home after this?" Mio said in a polite tone but with a hint of sarcasm from her jealousy.

"Moreover, Sia-sama.. please do not kiss Lily-sama’s lips just to give her an unnecessary drink," Mio continued with a smile.

"C-Calm down all of you," Lily tried to stop the small fight that was happening.

"Lily-sama.." but it was stopped by Mio’s smile that was directed at her.

Mio’s smile indicated an instruction that said "This is our holy war to take you back, Lily-sama will not be able to stop it."

Lily who knew the meaning of that smile closed her mouth and hoped that this small fight would end quickly without causing any victims of hurt feelings.

"U-Umm.. Lily-chan.. if possible.. Lily-chan who would choose?" an unusual question was thrown from the mouth of the Queen who was sitting in front of Lily. Her nature changed a little when she returned to her youthful appearance which looked very cheerful, calm, and wise as a Queen.

"Huh?" Lily was a little confused by the question.

"I mean.. if I make a rule that allows women to marry each other. Which marriage partner will Lily-chan choose? A loyal maid, a cute fox little sister, a reliable dragon big sister, or a future Queen of a kingdom?" asked the Queen, entering the holy war that was fighting over Lily.

"I already said I don’t want to marry a man!" Lily answered quickly.

"Eeh? But the future Queen of that kingdom is a woman…" The Queen stopped her words with a tone that teased Lily.

"Because that is my First Princess… Oh! If Lily-chan wants, I can also propose to be your bride~" continued the Queen with her annoyingly coquettish expression.

"Eh?"

"EEHH?"

"EEEHHH??!!"

"EEEEEEEHHHHHH??!!"

The Queen’s short declaration made the atmosphere in Marquess Rommel’s dining room even more uncontrollable. Even the Queen’s son who was sitting beside her was surprised by his mother’s declaration that nominated his sister as Lily’s bride.

Mio’s expression became increasingly gloomy and she muttered something, "Tch, if I had known it would be like this. I would have sent her home last night with a hard kick in the ass!"

"Awawawa!! Why did the Princess and Queen join in?"

"Nooooo!! Why are my rivals for Lily-nee increasing?"

Alice and Alyssa who realized that their step big sister had charmed many girls looked shocked.

"I also want to have Onee-sama!!"

"I also want to have Nee-sama!!"

Alice and Alyssa made their declaration and made the breakfast atmosphere at Marquess Rommel’s residence even more chaotic.

Once again, a strange rumor about Lily was created. A small fight to get Lily’s love and a soft kiss became the motivation for Ciel, Sia, Alice, Alyssa, Mio, and the Queen.

Lily could only cover her face which was covered in shy and the shame that made her body unable to move.

Meanwhile, Marquess Rommel froze seeing the strange sight before his eyes. His appearance looked like a calm old man but his heart and mind were shaken by this incident.

Especially with Lily’s declaration not to marry and the Queen’s statement to hand over the First Princess to Lily.

[ Goddess Realm ]

"Oh! My! I didn’t expect it to be like this!"

In the Goddess realm that penetrated the fabric of space and time, a Goddess whose identity was unknown looked at a magic ball that showed the shadow of a little girl who was being fought over by other girls.

"There’s no doubt, that Lily-chan is the perfect girl and will develop the blessing I have given to color that world. Don’t you agree with my decision to choose her, Amelia-chan?" right next to the Goddess’ figure. A girl wearing a Maid outfit stood beside her.

"..."

The girl named Amelia did not answer the Goddess’ words and ignored her like the wind that did not blow.

"Humpf! Do you still hold a grudge against those who are your pathetic descendants?" asked the Goddess with a little teasing.

"..."

"Is this because of the betrayal they once committed by sacrificing you?"

"..."

"Holding a lingering grudge isn’t good. Besides, I just wanted to have fun watching the love between girls after the tragedy that befell you."

"Don’t you want to enjoy this beautiful scenery?"

"..."

"Haaah~ still silent as usual. Don’t you have any short comments to develop Lily-chan in a better direction together with me?"

"..."

"Come on, at least give me one or two suggestions as Lily-chan’s adoptive mother."

"My advice is.. don’t trust humanity completely," replied the figure named Amelia.

"Hmm.. that’s a good suggestion. If only they hadn’t made that mistake, maybe you wouldn’t have been reborn as a Goddess."

"..."

"Eeeh.. going silent again? Come on... at least accompany me in conversation," teased the Goddess.

"As the Goddess of love and affection who was born from the tears of a Saintess. You’re so quiet, Amelia."

"At least... give me a suggestion to make Lily-chan a daughter adopted by the Goddess and blessed by the Goddess herself. If you do that, I’ll sleep with you later.."

"..."

"Hmm? Still not enough? Okay... I’ll stroke your hair."

"..."

"Eh? Still not enough? Wait.. you don’t want to do that, right?"

"..."

"O-Okay! Let’s do it! But only once."

"Seven times," Amelia replied in a flat tone.

"Eh? Seven times? Aren’t you being too greedy, Amelia? Ey! Why did you just answer if you wanted to do that?"

"Eight times."

"Why is it increasing?!"

In the realm of the Goddess which is difficult for human understanding to understand, the problems that the Goddess faces are not much different from the problems of her creatures.

Moreover...

The problem of love to affection will always exist in every difference in space and time.
