Lily's Miracle Chapter 6

Farewell with a Smile is the sixth chapter of the Didn't I Say To Make My Abilities Average In The Next Life?! Lily's Miracle light novel.

Summary

 * Lily, Lafine, and Veil head off towards the Fief of Lockwood to investigate where Lily's family is being held captive. The trio purposefully camp out in the area the Lockwoods may be held captive at in order to lure the "Bandits" into robbing them, only to follow the bandits back to their base afterwards. Once near the base, the trio marched ahead with Lafine quietly knocking the perimeter guards out.
 * Soon after entering the camp, the Broker sprung a surprise attack that was blocked by Veil. Veil then stayed to confront the Broker and several "Bandits" while Lafine took Lily and ran. Veil managed to take out the "Bandits" but not without sustaining serious injuries himself.
 * Lafine and Lily ventured deeper into the ruins until they found an area that seemed to have the most guards. Lafine and Lily then entered an underground part of the ruins and were soon found out so Lafine drew the attention of the guards while Lily continued on her own. Lily then found where her family was being held and used some newfound abilities to defeat and demoralize a few guards.
 * With the guards defeated, Veil then faced off against the Broker. Veil then learned that the Broker is working with the Empire in order to eliminate all slums by raising the orphans out of poverty, but by doing so, the Empire would need to take over the Kingdom of Tils. It took all of Veils effort, but he was able to defeat the Broker before passing out.
 * Moving forward, Lily reached the door where her family was behind. Not knowing what to say, Lily paused. Lafine then arrived behind Lily and gave her the push she needed. Veil then showed up as well to support Lily. Once the door was opened, Lily was confronted with the harsh reality of what her family though of Lily, even thought it was Lily who came to save them. Lily's father, Neiham, thought nothing but to use her now valuable daughter, while her mother, Ivanna, admitted to Lily that they did what they thought was for the best for the future of their family. Ivanna then tells Lily that if she wants, she can have total freedom or rejoin the family. Lily then thanks Lafine and Veil for helping her. Then Lily thanked her family for all that they had given her and bid her birth family goodbye.
