Shes ready to prove her intense feelings for him on the spot, but he tells her they cant.
At the end of the day his reason is that it would upset Hestia.

A lot more knives twist this week.
Cringy dialogue aside, hes a tough customer who means to put Syr to death.
When Bell isnt quick enough, Ryuu swoops in, along with Syrs co-workers at the tavern.

The girls manage to buy some time for Bell to escape with Syr, but everyone is gravely injured.
To this he merely says he had no idea.
Syr, an ordinary mortal tavern girl, is merely a form that Freya can take on.

And just because she failed to win Bells heart as Syr doesnt mean shes done pursuing that heart.
Shell proceed as Freya, and I doubt it will be pleasant for Bell.
