Everyone stared at Apollo in shock before all the gods began cheering loudly besides Hestia, Artemis, Loki and finally Freya.

Freya was dead silent, but her eyes were raging infernos that promised to hurt Apollo in the most brutal ways possible that she could think of. He just stole her chance to dance with her Odr and it wouldn't cause to much suspicion since he just danced with Riveria.

"What!?" Snapped Artemis looking at Apollo in disgust.

"It's as simple as I said my dear Artemis, since your under Hestias protection given your Familia is dead, I declare a war game to take both you and Bell for myself.. and to protect you of course~" he said with a blush growing on his cheeks.

"Hell no!" Snapped Hestia glaring at him.

"Oh my dear Hestia.. do you miss me that much that you want to come back to our love?" He said with a grin.

"WE NEVER LOVED EACH OTHER OR DATED!!" Screamed Hestia.

"Oh my dear Hestia.. your breaking my heart! But don't worry you can heal it by either giving me Bell and Artemis now or after the war game" said Apollo in a dramatic way.

"I don't agree to this and neither does Bell" said Hestia.

"We won't participate in your games Apollo" said Artemis with a glare "we are leaving" she then took Bells hand and dragged him away with Hestia quickly following.

As they left, Rose quickly followed after her, but Zidril had to sadly stay since she was Hephaestus's bodyguard.

For Loki she shook her head then looked over at Riveria and saw that she looked angry but beyond embarrassed since she realized she tried to kiss Bell.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"So what exactly is a wargame?" Said Bell as he was strapping his armor on and Rose was helping him by attaching his orc hide armor to his stomach and lower back area.

"Well it's where two Familias fight for a multitude of reasons, could be for a member of a Familia, disagreement, or lots of other things" said Hestia as she was tying up her hair. "After you go down to the dungeon, I want you to come back here, I don't know what Apollo will do".

"I have to agree with Hestia, I know Apollo he will try something, so be careful Orion" said Artemis.

"I'll stop and check on Naaza to see if shes ok then race back here and thank you Rose" he said seeing that she finished strapping up his armor

"No problem Bell" she said standing up and lightly kissing him, which he returned making her even happier.

"Goddess what will you be doing? Along with you Goddess Artemis?" Said Bell.

"I will be working in the potato stands" said Hestia.

"I'll be looking for a new Familia home for all of us, this church isn't exactly the best for all of us" said Artemis.

Bell nodded then looked at Rose who smiled "I'll be meeting Eina later when Royman will be in a meeting and drop off your jackbird eggs so we can get some much needed valis" said Rose.

"Alright, well l-" Bell stopped mid sentence as all of them exited the building and saw well over 40 Familia members, with most being from Apollo and a couple being Soma.

Bell then noticed that all the elves present were glaring with absolute hatred since he touched Riveria and even danced with her. That was a crime that Bell Will suffer for greatly.

"Attack" said a blonde haired elven man with a red scarf around his neck and lower face.

Instantly all the mages present all sent magic towards them.

Thinking fast, Bell scooped up Hestia, Artemis and Rose In a awkward hold, but he made it work and charged back into the church then jumped out the window in the back. Once he landed, he looked back and saw the church getting absolutely destroyed and he then remembered something that made his blood run cold.

He left his father's pipe in the church...

Before the pain could truly hit him, a bunch of other mages appeared and tried to attack him, so Bell moved and wiggled the three woman on him to more comfortable positions for him. Rose was on his back and both goddesses were being carried in his arms like a sack of potatoes.

Not that either would complain given the situation.

Bell was running very fast, faster than both enemy Familias were expecting, but then they remembered that he's now a level 3, which just fueled hatred in them.

___

Syr gasped at seeing the massive smoke clouds in the distance in the direction of Bells church, she knew that she'd have to tell Freya this as soon as she could.

Behind her was Anya who had a slight look of concern and Chole who was mentioning that someone wanted Bell.

Behind them all was Ryuu who looked as concerned as Syr and she gripped her at her shirt, where her heart was since she felt so conflicted. She owed a massive amount of loyalty to Mia and would never betray her.... but right now her heart was screaming at her to save Bell.

___

"AGHH" Lily fell on the ground groaning in pain, she tried to get up, but then Zanis kicked her across the face sending her away.

"You've caused me a lot of trouble Lily.. I had to pay a huge fine to the Goibniu Familia because of this spear" said Zanis before he nodded at his dwarf companion, who snapped it in half. "I had to pay them 2 million valis in fines given only they can make Pallum gear. Not only that but I had to pay a small fine to Royman for all of this and his information about most of this, though I guess you got lucky since Hephaestus is in even more trouble for letting one of her smiths make it".

Lily tried to speak, but Zanis kicked her across the face hard enough to knock out a couple of her teeth.

"This is all your fault Lily, Welf is gonna have to life ruined, Bell is gonna be apart of Apollo and that bitch werewolf will probably be sold to the red light district" said Zanis with a perverted grin. "But that's in the future, come we have to go home".

He then began to walk away and the dwarf grabbed Lily and dragged her away.

"B-bell... Lily is sorry..." she quietly croaked out as a couple tears ran down her face.

___

Hephaestus was in her office with her face contorted in pain and sadness.

She was getting fined 30 million valis by Goibniu for the spear Welf made plus 5 million to the guild for trying to make a product that's been monopolized.

She now had two options. Pay 35 million valis or kick Welf out of the Familia and only have to pay half the fine.

Of course after he heard this he said he'd leave, hence where they are right now.

Cutting her finger, she let a single drop of blood hit Welfs back and his Familia emblem was now gone.

"I'm sorry goddess... nothing I say or do will ever make up for this.. but I will try..." said Welf in a lifeless tone before he left.

After he left, Hephaestus finally let a tear roll down her cheek as she felt her heart break from seeing the person she's been growing to love, leave her like this, all because of something he honestly didn't know since all he's heard from others is magic weapons or his gear sucks.

___

Running as fast as he could, he dodged a couple arrows, making sure they didn't hit Hestia, Artemis or Rose. Luckily for him, he was a level 3 so he was starting to loose them.

"We should head straight to the guild, they can't touch us once we enter that building" said Rose.

"Bell dead end!" Said Hestia pointing to the end of the alley.

"Hang on" said Bell as he began to run faster before he jumped and cleared the 3 story building, landing on the roof. Once he landed, he immediately noticed that they were surrounded by Apollo Familia members all around them.

"You outta quit while your ahead" said Daphne looking at him "Apollo won't ever stop, that's how me and Cassandra ended up here. He will chase you city after city, continent after continent, he will never stop until your his".

"Sorry but no, I joined goddess Hestias Familia, even though we had some rough patches, she made it up to me, so I won't betray her like that" said Bell.

"Oh Bell.." said Hestia looking like she was about to start crying tears of happiness.

"Just surrender, I wouldn't want to injur you, if your gonna join our Familia anyway" said Daphne.

"I will not" said Bell as his eyes hardened and the Apollo and Soma members felt a bit of fear from his glare.

"...very well.. I figured not" she said.

Instantly two members charged to attack Bell, who with level 3 speeds, dropped Artemis for just a second and blocked several arrows with his knife, before sheathing it and jumping backwards carrying them. He then raised his right arm and aimed it at them while Hestia covered her ears.

"THUNDERBOLT!!!" A massive boom of thunder was heard and lightning was seen as part of the building was instantly destroyed in the attack and it sent multiple Apollo members flying.

Landing on the ground, Bell sped off with everyone quickly following.

"This is stupid and a waste of our time" said Daphne annoyed as she watched this happen.

"Daphne... I don't think we should make him angry..." said Cassandra with fear in her voice.

"Why?... is it your dreams again?" She said sounding mildly annoyed but a hint of curiosity in her voice that Cassandra didn't catch.

"In my dream.. I saw a injured rabbit that fled carrying a wounded red wolf... but then the rabbit turned in a vicious wolf that jumped and consumed the moon then the sun.. but not before destroying all that they represented. It then went to a castle and beat a fat pig" said Cassandra.

Daphne was silent for a moment before sighing "come on let's go" she said walking off.

"W-wait don't leave me behind!".

___

"What was that? They are attacking him?" Said Ais looking at Tiona.

"Yes, apparently the Apollo and Soma Familias are attacking Mr Argonaut, it's causing a huge mess" said Tiona.

"Don't get in this Ais, this isn't like the 18th floor, we can't make it look like we are siding with him, we never made a alliance like Apollo and Soma did" said Finn.

Ais was silent for a moment before looking out the window and clenched her fist slightly.

Riveria felt the same, she gripped her staff tightly in anger and had to fight down the urge to speed off to save Bell.

"Captain are sure that's a good idea? I mean you have talked about making a alliance a lot and this could help us make one" said Tione.

"In normal circumstances I'd agree... but something feels off.. like someone else is in play and letting all this happen" said Finn as his thumb ached.

____

Bell smashed his foot into a Soma member and sent him through the wall, he then looked around and didn't see anyone else, so he looked at the others "let's go!".

He quickly grabbed Hestia and Rose and began to carry them as Artemis with difficulty ran next to him, to try not to wear him down by carrying her.

"The amount of destruction that's going on is way to obvious, the guild and Ganesha familia would've already shown up and stopped this" said Rose.

"So what do think it is?" Said Artemis.

"...I think Royman is using his influence and keeping them away and from interfering" said Rose.

Bell felt anger rise up in him, but kept running with them, heading towards the guild, but they turned a corner and they all stopped at who they saw.

It was Hyakinthos.

Bell got infront of them all and pulled out his short sword and knife as he prepared to fight.

Smirking cockily, he charged and it was only thanks to Bell being a level 3, for being able to block the strike from him.

Hyakinthos quickly began to slash and stab at him, but Bell was able to move fast enough to block the strikes thanks to his skill Indomitable Will and training with Ryuu and Ais that his eyes and body could keep up with Hyakinthos.

A cut appeared on Bells cheek, but he ignored it and continued to block the strikes and would try to land some of his own, but Hyakinthos had more experience than him and higher stats, so it made hard.

They continued to clash, but it was clear that Bell was getting injured and Hyakinthos had yet to receive any real injury, besides some torn cloth since he never dropped his guard and used his speed based fighting style to his advantage.

"Bell.." said Rose with a hand covering her mouth watching her mate fight to protect himself and them.

A slash came and it hit Bell in the leg, but he retaliated and managed to cut Hyakinthos clothing again, but this cut was close to his head, showing he was getting better and faster.

"I must admit I'm impressed.. but not much, since I'm gonna take a limb or two off of you for taking Lord Apollos love from me" he said as he stopped holding back and moved at almost level 4 speeds.

Seeing this attacks, Bell raised his gauntlet shield and fought back.

___

"We need to issue a warning to the Apollo and Soma Familias, also have the Ganesha Familia move in and stop this needless destruction" said Eina.

"Not possible I'm afraid, Apollo and Soma are both aware of the consequences and promised to pay for the damages" said Royman cleaning a bottle of Soma wine.

"But they are trying to destroy a Familia!" Snapped Eina.

"Like I said we can't do anything... though I must ask.. why do you care so much? Employees can't get attached to Familias or members of them" said Royman with narrowed.

"It's the Hestia Familia and Bell is under my care since I teach him about the dungeon" said Eina trying to sound professional, but a tiny tint of red on her cheeks betrayed her.

Roymans eyes narrowed "seems you've grown feeling for that disgusting human as well.. Eina Tulle your fired for breaking rules and betraying the elven race, you disgusting half breed".

Einas eyes widened in shock at that.

____

Bell felt the blade cut his cheek, but he moved and tried to cut Hyakinthos, but he moved just fast enough, but some of his hair got cut.

Snarling in anger, he flicked his hand down and right when Bell went to charge, he heard whistling and blocked three arrows from a Apollo member.

His senses then screamed at him as Hyakinthos moved in and had his blade coming down towards him, but Bell couldn't block it, so he went for the attack.

A massive slash went across his chest, breaking his chest and stomach armor with ease.

Hyakinthos was about to grin, when he felt liquid on his cheek and touched it, to only see blood.

Rage even more prominent than before flooded his system as he looked up to see Bell still standing and holding his blades up.

Moving as fast as he could, he landed another slash on Bell, but he also received a cut. In retaliation for that, Hyakinthos kicked Bell as hard as he could and sent Bell just past Hestia, Artemis and Rose.

"I'm gonna make you suffer for this and taken Apollos love!!! I gave him every fiber of my being and soul!!!" Hyakinthos screamed as he charged.

Bell tried to get up, but it was to late and he heard the sound of flesh getting torn and felt blood hit his face, but he didn't feel any pain.

Quickly looking up, his eyes widened in horror at what he saw.

Rose took the attack and it pierced through her lower abdomen and right where her spine was.

"I-I'm sorry Bell... but I couldn't stand seeing you.. get hurt..." said Rose.

Snarling in anger, Hyakinthos backhanded her and sent her into a wall.

"You dumb bitch" he snarled.

Bells world froze as he stared at Rose's body leaned against the wall with blood slowly pooling from her wound.

Something in Bell snapped.

"N-" faster than Hyakinthos could react, Bell struck and his sword smashed straight into his own, then Bells knife moved at speeds that a mid level 4 would barely see. The knife went straight into Hyakinthos's shoulder making his left arm useless.

"DAMN YOU!!!" He screamed and tried to attack, but Bell kept pushing and he was now the one landing more strikes as his anger clouded his judgment and his curse was slowly corrupting him freely.

His muscles got bigger and he hit harder and faster with every swing.

"YOU HURT ROSE!!" Screamed Bell as he landed two more strikes on him, then landed his own kick, that actually broke his jaw.

Flying back, Hyakinthos stared at Bell with nothing but pure bloody murder in his eyes, but Bells were much worse.

His red eyes were swimming with rage and lightning could be seen starting to arch around him along with wisps of fire.

Then they all heard it.

*GONG*

Bells Argonaut skill activated and was charging a powerful attack.

Staring at Bell, Hyakinthos decided to swing things back into his favor "TAKE THE GODDESSES AND THAT DAMN BITCH!!".

Bell was consumed with rage, but was still able to think rationally, but barely and when he heard that, his anger calmed to a manageable level and he saw the Apollo Familia racing towards them.

Thinking fast, Bell aimed his hand at the ground "FIREBOLT!!!".

A massive explosion and smoke cloud covered the area and once it cleared, Bell, Hestia, Artemis and Rose were gone.

"Damn him.." snarled Hyakinthos through a broken jaw.

___

Bell was carrying Rose in his arms heading towards the Blue Pharmacy in hopes that Nazza would be able to heal him, but as he got closer, his eyes filled with even more despair as he saw it was boarded up.

His eyes quickly read the note on the door and the it said the guild confiscated the building and all it's belonging to pay off the debt the Miach Familia had.

"Bell we can still go to the Dian Cecht Familia, they have a huge hospital and could heal her" said Hestia in hopes to give him hope.

Nodding his head, he began sprinting again, carrying both goddesses on his back and Rose In his arms. He didn't care about anything else but saving Rose so he ended up shoving lots of people out of the way.

He could still see Apollo and Soma members in the far distance chasing them, but couldn't catch up, so he started to run even harder than before.

It took then several painful minutes, before Bell barged in through the front door scaring lots of people in the lobby and even Airmid herself.

"Please save her!" He Yelled holding Rose in his arms.

Airmid quickly stood up and began giving orders to nurses to prepare a room as fast as she could. She then walked over and began to chant as she started to stop the bleeding as Bell placed her on a bed.

Dian Cecht came down the stairs holding a silver arm and wondering what the noise was about, but his eyes saw his broken door.

"Oi!? Your go-" he stopped mid sentence when Bells red eyes snapped on him and it made the god honestly scared.

Those eyes reminded him of Zeus's when he was pissed.

Bells eyes bore straight into the god, but then they went to the silver arm which he recognized instantly as Naazas "what are you doing with Nazzas arm?".

"Huh? Oh she owed me and the guild all of Miachs debt, so I took this back to pay off the rest.. of.... her debt...." said Dian as he got more quiet as Bell now stood before the god and his eyes promised pain that not even being a god could save him from.

Faster than anyone could react, the arm was ripped out of his grip "her debt is on ne now, you try this again and getting sent to heaven will be the least of your concerns" said Bell.

Dian just nodded, feeling to scared to answer.

"Orion..." said Artemis having never seen this darker side of him.

"Mr Cranel, Rose should be fine, but she will require surgery, the blade pierced through her womb, small intestines and spine" said Airmid.

Guilt flooded through him and he nodded his head.

"I promise I shall do my utmost best to heal her, you have my word that she will live, lasting injuries, depends on the surgery" said Airmid.

"...thank you.." he said.

"Bell" said Hestia clenching her fists and getting his attention "take me to Apollo, I'm done with these games, he's taken it to far".

"Yes goddess Hestia" said Bell before looking at Artemis "can... can y-" "Yes I'll stay and watch over her" said Artemis cutting him off.

"Thank you..." he said before leaving with Hestia.

___

As they went to the Apollo Familia home, they were completely unaware that the Takemikazuchi Familia was fighting them to distract them from Bell.

With Bell and Hestia they walked down the road for a ways before appearing at the Apollo Familia gates, and some members felt nervous at the glare on Bells face.

It promised nothing but pain to anyone that got in his way.

They both started to walk into the Familia home, when the gates opened and along the entire path was the weaker members of the Apollo Familia watching them.

Soon the front doors of the Familia home opened, revealing Apollo who had a smug grin.

"Oh my dear Hestia, have you come to bring me my precious little rabbit?~" said Apollo with a creepy grin as a blush grew on his cheeks.

He was met with Hestia glaring, but when his eyes landed on Bells. He actually froze.

Bell was glaring at him so harshly, it made Apollo actually take a step back. It reminded him of a silver haired woman from the Hera Familia when he tried to capture her, but she almost slaughtered his entire Familia.

Apollo was pulled out of his thoughts when Hestia took the glove from a prum and threw it right at his face.

"BRING IT ON!! WE'LL KICK YOUR ASS FOR WHAT YOU DID TO US AND ROSE!!" Yelled Hestia.

Bells fist tightend more as he fought back closing his right hand since he's holding Nazzas silver arm.

Quickly regaining his composure, Apollo grinned in a perverted way "it seems we have a war game!!!".

All around him, lots of his members began cheering and celebrating in excitement for this game.

"To ensure fairness, our brethren shall witness our rules" said Apollo "I shall send you the details later".

He then walked back inside and Bell along with Hestia were escorted out of the Familia front yard.

Once outside Bell glared at the Apollo home one last time, before looking at Hestia.

"Bell you need to train and get stronger... I know that you want to go and be with Rose right now, but she will be ok" said Hestia.

Taking a deep breath, he nodded his head, it was way to hard right now to keep his temper in check given everything that's happened today.

"Alright... I'll go see Naaza to give her; her arm, then I'll go see if Ais or Ryuu could train me" said Bell before running off.

Hestia watched him leave, before her blue eyes went back to the Apollo Familia home where she saw Hyakinthos standing on the roof with a look of pure hatred as he had lots of bandages on his body.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Meanwhile all the way up in a Babel was Freya, who had a look on her face that even scared Ottar.

To say she was pissed, was a understatement, she was leaking her Arcanum and knew that Ouranos will reprimand her for it, but right now she didn't care and she wanted to send Apollo and Soma to heaven. But Hyakinthos...

She wanted to torture him till not even the gods of death could recognize him for what he did to her Odr and Rose.

The injury to Rose was thankfully healed from what Hogni told her when he snuck in, but apparently she was very close to loosing the ability to have children or even walk, given where the blade pierced and the blades shape.

Freya couldn't even begin to imagine how much that'd hurt Bell.

And that was something she wouldn't let go unpunished.

"Ottar" she growled out.

"Yes lady Freya" he said quickly while bowing his head.

"When my dear Bell defeats the Apollo and Soma Familia, I want you to capture Hyakinthos and bring him to me... I'm gonna make him suffer for what he did and he almost stole from me and my Odr" Freya said. She knew she could never have children, even though she'd give Bell children in a heartbeat if she could. So to solve that, she is accepting the fact she'll have to share him and his other wives will have to carry the children. But that doesn't mean, she can't ask one of them to be a surrogate mother for her so she can raise one with Bell.

"As you command lady Freya... I don't mean to question you, but what if he looses" said Ottar.

"If he does then I will burn the Apollo Familia to the ground and take Bell myself and make them all suffer for hurting Bell" said Freya.

They were interrupted by a knock on the door.

"What?" She said annoyed.

"Forgive me lady Freya, but Husfreya is here" said Heith through the door.

Instantly Freya smiled and her anger dissipated slightly "send her in".

The door opened and in walked in a breathtakingly beautiful woman that some would say was almost on par with Freya herself, even with her scar and eyepatch.

She stood around 5'8 and had long silver hair, tied into braid and had bright beautiful navy blue eyes that shifted more to purple than actual blue.

"Hello goddess Freya" said Husfreya with a smile as she pulled part of her cloak back, knowing what was to come.

"It's so good to see you after so many years my child" said Freya walking towards her and giving her a gentle hug "how have your travels been?".

"They gave been good goddess... the traveling really helped me" she said gently touching her eyepatch as she remembered that day In the dungeon.

"I'm glad to hear that, now I have some things to discuss with you and I believe this will help you more since I know you don't get along with anyone here besides Ottar and Heith" said Freya.

Raising a eyebrow, Husfreya wondered what her goddess was planning.

"But first.. I found my Odr" said Freya.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Naaza was sitting in a bar, drinking and drinking, she lost count after the tenth mug of mead that she drank. Her head was pounding and spinning from the alcohol and her own pain.

She lost everything all over again, her god, her home, her money and her silver arm. All she had now was the clothes on her back and her bow.

"Oi imma need to see 'ome coin" said the bar tender

"More mead..." said Naaza holding her empty mug.

Glaring, he sighed "last one then I'll need to see some valis" he then pouted her mead, which she immediately downed.

Her head continued spinning and she honestly hoped all this alcohol would kill her, but it wasn't working sadly.

"I n--d some v-lis" said the bartender, but she didn't fully hear him.

Naaza was about to ask for more mead, when someone appeared next to her and her nose recognized the smell.

"The bill is on me" said the voice putting down some valis. He then gently picked Naaza up and carried her on his large muscular back.

In her drunken state, she couldn't fully make out who this was, only she recognized the smell of him.

He said something, but she didn't hear him. So he sighed and started to walk again.

Naaza didn't know why... but she felt safe right now as she was carried and it didn't take to long from then, before a couple tears rolled down her cheeks as she remembered Miach... this person's warmth and how safe she felt, reminded her of Miach. How he'd hug her or pat her head, making sure she's ok and always has food on the table.

"It's ok Naaza, your safe" said Bell quietly as he felt her start crying on his shoulder.

It was a blurry mess for her until she eventually felt herself being laid down on a bed and she then heard a female voice say she'd watch over him and something about Rose.

She felt the person tried to leave and her hand immediately tightened on his, not wanting to feel alone.

"It's ok I'll stay until you fall asleep" said the male voice gently.

After that it didn't take Naaza long till exhausting and alcohol took over and she passed out.

"Thank you Zidril" said Bell in a calm but still hurt tone.

He was suddenly hugged from behind by her.

"I'm so sorry... you shouldn't have had to deal with any of this or see... Rose get hurt.." said Zidril hugging him tighter.

Bell didn't say anything, but he did hold her hands as the image of Rose getting stabbed replayed in his mind.

Hyakinthos almost killed his mate and that was a step to far in Bells book.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Bell was walking away from the Loki Familia to where Tione told him to go and after a little bit of walking he finally arrived and saw three figures.

It was Ais, Tiona and Riveria.

"Hiya Argonaut-kun" said Tiona with a grin "so I'm guessing ya want us to help train you?".

"Yes I do, Apollo and Soma have gone to far and..... I need to get stronger to protect my Familia and..." said Bell.

The girls then saw a flash of nothing but pure hatred flood into his red eyes.

"Make Hyakinthos pay for what he did to Rose!" He growled out as he felt his curse try and come out, but he forced it back down.

"Mr Cranel if I may, what happened?" Asked Riveria who only heard that the church was destroyed and they were attacked. Though she did feel worried since he seems so angry and she wanted to know what she could do to help.

"... Hyakinthos tried to seriously Injur me, most likely cut off a arm, but before he could, Rose jumped in the way and took the blade to protect me..." said Bell.

Riveria instantly felt guilt at not coming to help him and wanted more than anything, but to hug and comfort him right now.

Ais's eyes narrowed at hearing this, then she walked forward and placed a hand on Bells shoulder "we will train till the day before the war game, you will be even stronger".

"Thank you" he said.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Two days passed since then and as Bell trained, Hestia ran around trying to get help and stall Apollo, but what she leanred didn't help her or Bell at all.

Welf was kicked out of the Hephaestus Familia because of a weapon he made, Lily was taken by the Soma Familia and they have a alliance with the Apollo Familia so they have extra security now. Rose is still unconscious and both those familias are putting pressure on the Takemikazuchi Familia for helping Hestia.

No matter how she looked at the situation, it felt helpless and now she just learned that Apollo said if she doesn't show up, he will take that as her forfeiting.

So she was now in the room they hold Denatus and was staring at Apollo who had a cocky smirk.

"Ahh so good to see you, so let's get started on this, yes?" He said oozing with confidence "but first if I win I get Bell and Artemis".

"And if we win?" Said Hestia.

"I'll do whatever you want and so will Soma as long as he can keep making his wine" said Apollo before looking at a scribe "Hey scribe make sure you write that down".

"Well, then how about I suggest we have a one V one" said Hestia.

"Out of the question, you not recruiting more members is entirely your own fault and you shall suffer the consequences... hmm but how about we let everyone here have a say and we choose one at random?" Said Apollo.

A couple minutes later a box was filled with folded notes and Hermes stood infront of it, looking nervous.

"And your sure, you want me to choose?" Said Hermes.

"I trust your judgment" said Apollo.

"Pick a good one for me Hermes" said Hestia.

Taking a deep breath, Hermes reached into the box and pulled out a note then unfolded it, reading the note but froze "it's a... castle siege".

"WHAT!?!?!!?" Yelled Hestia in shock and horror.

"Hahahaha, how splendid. Well, that's the choice, Hestia, you can't back out now" said Apollo with a large grin "defending a castle alone would be next to impossible, so I'll let you take the offensive".

Gritting her teeth, Hestia said nothing as she felt horrible for Bell, by letting him down.

"I'm sorry Mama... but ya might loose your elf.. unle-" Loki thought before she was interrupted.

"May I make a suggestion" said Hermes getting everyone's attention "this whole thing feels one sided, it's your Familia and Soma VS Hestias Familia and she only has one child while both of you combined have almost two hundred. Would It be possible that she gets some outside help".

"Denied, she didn't recruit anyone and me and Soma signed this alliance almost a month ago, so we aren't breaking any ru-" "are you scared Apollo" said Apollo before being interrupted by Freya.

Everyone in the room immediately looked at her and saw her usual calm smile, but those that knew her better could see that was only on the surface... and she was pissed right now.

"Is your faith in your own children and this little alliance of yours so bad that you won't even allow Hestia to give her children backup" said Freya with a tone that send a shiver down Apollos spine.

He didn't know why, but he felt like he really pissed her off, right now.

Soon other gods started to cheer in agreement and were yelling at Apollo to allow Hestias child to have back up.

"Ugh.. fine! He can have help from one person, but that person has to be from a Familia outside of Orario! How do you like that!?" Yelled Apollo.

The entire room was silent, besides Takemikazuchi and Hestia commenting how petty he was.

All the gods began to leave and Hestia was talking to Takemikazuchi about how his child Mikoto wanted to join Hestias Familia to pay back the debt she feels she owes Bell for abandoning his party, then him saving her by catching her.

But before they could leave the grounds, she was approached by Freya who was followed by Ottar right behind her.

"Hestia, do you have a moment? I have something important to discuss with you" she said.

Hestia looked at her and felt slightly uneasy but looked at Takemikazuchi "You go on ahead, I'll meet you at your home once I'm done".

"Very well" he said as he left with Ouka.

"So what did you want Freya?" Asked Hestia looking at her.

Smiling softly she gestured for her to follow her "Let's go somewhere a bit more private".

Nodding her head, she followed Freya until they reached a restaurant where they gave them a private booth.

"Now to what I wanted to talk about" said Freya as she looked up at Hestia "one of my children has recently returned here to Orario after years of exploring the world to help heal given a injury she recieved".

"Ok.." said Hestia.

"Only problem is that most of my children hate her, given the amount of love I bestowed upon her, I mean afterall I named her, helped train her and I even gave her my own shield and declared her my Valkyrie" said Freya. "It made lots of my children extremely jealous, even to the point when I tell them to stop, it's only temporary".

"So.. what do you want me to do?" Said Hestia.

Freya smile grew just a hair more "I'd like to take her in as your own child, I believe she'd fit in well with your Familia and maybe Bell can help her out of her little funk given her scar".

Hestias eyes went wide instantly, Freya didn't just let her children leave and join another Familia.

"W-what?".

"I care for her Hestia and I believe this will help her more, she needs a home and to around people that won't be jealous or hate her, just because of who she is or cringe because of a scar" said Freya.

Hestia still couldn't believe her own ears, Freya was willing to let one of her children join another Familia... also she said Valkyrie. Her mind immediately went to someone she read about and her eyes widened on who it was.

She was a powerful adventurer, even for a level 5, a rumor even spread around for a while that she was actually able to tank a full strength punch from a new level 7 Ottar with one of her skills. Not only that but like a real Valkyrie that she was named after, she recieved a extremely rare artifact that actually gave her wings like a real Valkyrie.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It was near sunset and Bell ducked under a swing from Ais's real sword, after getting healed by Riveria who had to try really hard to not hug him and ask if he was ok after hearing what happened.

He was about to swing again, when he had to dodge a strike from Tiona, but he wasn't fast enough and it smashed into him with the strength of a level 5.

They all watched Bell go flying and smack against the floor of the wall painfully, yet he forced his body up and charged.

All of them could see it, anger was fueling his strength right now, but none of them could blame him for that, he had every right to be pissed after everything that happened today.

Swinging his sword again, he missed Ais, but swung his knife at her and she easily deflected it and then he had to bring his right arm over and block the strike from Tiona. Right when he did that, he heard Riveria finish a small chant and a wave of ice hit him.

Bell was immobilized and they were about to call the match when he forced his hand to move towards himself "FIREBOLT!!!". The ice was instantly shattered and he charged again and got his sword just a inch closer to hitting Ais. But this time when Tionas attack came he did something like when he fought the minotaur.

Seeing it coming, he forced his eyes to track it and while fast, he made his body keep up and actually landed his hand ontop of the flat part of the blade and brought his entire body up and almost kicked Tiona in the face.

Level 6 instincts and years of combat prevented that though and she easily blocked it with her hand and threw him with her strength as he smashed into the side of the wall. But after seeing that, she couldn't help but notice that her heartbeat quickened in excitement at this.

Groaning in pain, he forced himself up and ignored his new wounds as he got ready to attack again, but Riveria stopped it.

"That's enough Bell" she said hating seeing him so hurt "we've been at this for hours and sadly we need to return home, you should go home and get some rest too or go visit Rose".

Bell was silent, but nodded his head. He hasn't left the wall since dropping off Naaza and meeting these three, he's done nothing but train and his skill Unrelenting Endurance was starting to near it's limit

"Right... I'll go do that" he said as he was about to leave, but Riveria stopped him.

"Let me heal you first and you should also take a shower and change your clothes for her" said Riveria before beginning her chant.

"Ok.." he said still feeling remnants if anger over what happened to Rose and his friends from what Zidril told him.

Finishing healing him, Riveria gently brushed some of his hair out of his eyes and looked at him with a smile that made his stomach twist for how beautiful it was.

"I understand your beyond angry Bell, you have every right to be after everything, but please don't let it cloud your judgment and push away those that love you. You need to go and be with them, even for a little bit".

Nodding his head he left.

Ais and Tiona began talking and Riveria was half listening since her mind was racing on ways to cheer him up, then it came to one idea.

Train with him and 'accidentally' knock him out then place his head on her thighs.

A blush immediately covered Riverias face at that thought.

But then she thought of something else that she's been working on for the last three days since learning that Bell lost his father's pipe.

She's been secretly trying to carve him a new one and when Eowyn found out, she gushed about it and tried to help her win Bells heart.

But then Loki leanred soon after and asked when's the wedding and kids and it took Eowyn a hour to calm down the blushing Riveria.

"I... I do hope he likes it" she thought before heading back up in hopes to eat a quick dinner than get back to work on the pipe.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Walking down the road in the dark night, he ignored some of the looks from people as he just tunnel visioned his way to where Rose still was. He was aware she woke up... but he felt to weak to see her, since he failed to.

He did of course feel like a horrible mate for that, but he just couldn't bare the thought of looking at her, knowing he failed to keep her safe.

"Bell!" Turning around, he saw Syr, before a blur of blonde covered his vision as Ryuu suddenly hugged him tightly and shoved her embarrassment down. She didn't have time for that, Bell was hurting and she wanted to comfort him.

Syr wasn't far behind and she immediately hugged him tightly. She saw his soul nearing and was excited, until she saw how cloudy it was and looked like a black speck was forming, which was something she couldn't allow.

"R-Ryuu, Syr.." he said shocked at getting hugged.

"Bell I'm sorry" said Ryuu still hugging him and not realizing how much this had been effecting her. Her worry for him all but proved how she had been truly feeling and her growing love for him, that she wasn't ready to admit, even if he did accept her greatest sins. She still didn't feel worthy, even after her talk with Syr.

He was silent for a moment before his arms moved and he hugged them both back, feeling the pain in his heart, ease greatly by the comfort they just provided.

Looking up Syr could still see pain in his eyes and her hatred for Apollo and Hyakinthos grew ten fold. They hurt her Odr and that was a unforgivable sin.

"Where have you been Bell? We haven't seen you in a couple days" said Ryuu taking a step back and trying and failing to regain her composure while pushing her blush down.

"I've been training none stop to get stronger, I'm only stopping now to go and see Rose, which I should've back when she woke up..." said Bell as guilt ate at him.

Syr was silent at that before looking up at him again "if you can wait a couple minutes, Ryuu and Mia can whip you up something to eat and for Rose as well".

Ryuu readily nodded her head.

Nodding his head, he accepted it.

___

Rose was sitting on her bed and was only one day from being released, but she still did hurt, emotionally at least.

Airmid told her, she came very close to loosing the ability to ever have children, but she managed to heal it so she still can and thankfully there was no lasting scar.

But her mind went to Bell... she hoped he'd come and see her when she woke up, but he kept pushing himself to get stronger. Not that she could really blame him, after seeing her get injured like she was, he's most likely pushing himself as hard as possible to prevent that.

She was pulled out of her thought when her nose twitched and she looked towards the door which opened revealing said person who she was just thinking about.

He looked like he just washed himself and changed his clothes, but she could tell he has been pushing himself as hard as possible to get stronger.

"Hello Rose... I'm.. back" he said looking at her a little scared given he didn't come to see her.

But instead of being met with silence or anger like he expected, he was met with a warm loving smile.

"Welcome back Bell" she said softly.

She then watched him walk towards her and put what she smelled as food down on the table next to her, then he looked at her like he wanted to just hold her. This made her heart swell and she raised her arms up to hug him, which he immediately did and buried his face into her neck as he began to cry.

Rose just smiled and held him as he statted crying and apologizing for not coming to see her sooner. But she just held him and rubbed his back while saying it was ok.

"I'm ok Bell, I promise and I do understand" she said.

"B-but I failed to protect you.." he croaked out.

Rose then shifted his head to her large breasts and placed his ear right where her heart was and he could hear it still beating.

"You hear that? It's still going because you saved me, you saved me from being raped, you gave me love when I thought I'd find none, you promised to support me when I lost my job and money and you tried to protect me again from Apollo and Soma. You've saved me plenty of times and my heart is still beating thanks to that and like I've said before, it belongs to you". She then lifted his head up to look him in the eyes "my heart, my body and my soul all belong to you Bell and in this life and our next, I will only give them to you".

Bell looked at her, with some tears in his eyes and he pushed forward and kissed her, putting all his love into that kiss.

Rose smiled and kissed him back just as much as some tears of happiness ran down her own cheeks.

___

"So you two are part of Bells Familia?" Said Zidril looking at the two people in her workshop as she was making Bell new armor since she heard Welf got kicked out and she knew she was breaking a contract, but Bell needed armor.

Before her was Welf who nodded his head and behind him was Husfreya who was standing next to Hestia.

"Yes and my contract still stand with Bell, so I can make his armor" Welf said staring into Zidrils eyes before taking a deep breath "but I'm willing to work with you on it, since I understand you want to keep him safe".

Zidril smiled before looking at Husfreya.

"I'm good on gear, I just came here since goddess Hestia was incident she come" she said softly.

"The war game is just in three days, are you sure you and Welf can finish all his armor by then?" Said Hestia.

"Easily and it'll be some of the best armor he's worn" said Zidril with a smirk.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Another two days passed and Bell was pushing himself even harder than before given what Tiona just told him.

Hyakinthos is now a level 4 and Zanis is a level 3 now since they both worked together to defeat Goliath down on the 17th floor.

His troubles just increased greatly since now they are even stronger and he'd have to fight an opponent the same level as him and an opponent a level stronger.

He only had one day left until the war game and this was his last day of training with Ais, Tiona and Riveria.

Dodging a strike, he moved in and swung his blade, but missed. He then ducked under a swing from Tiona and slashed at her, but she easily dodged it as well. He then saw Ais had a opening and he went for it but it was a lull and she easily moved out of the way, but was caught off guard when Bell saw through it and followed her.

The blade was just inches from her face when she used her level 6 speed and dodged it while kicking him away, but her eyes saw something.

He cut some of her hair, meaning he got closer than ever before.

Landing on the ground, Bell stood up and was panting in exhaustion since he had yet to fully recover from the backlash of his skill.

"You did good Bell" said Ais holding up the part of her hair that got cut, which meant she'd have to cut a inch off her hair now.

This quickly got Riveria and Tionas attention since it should be impossible for a level 3 to do that.

"But... will I be good enough to fight and win.." said Bell.

"As long as you try your hardest then you will win Bell" said Riveria while smiling.

He nodded his head before slumping down against the wall "Thank you all... I'd bow to you, but my body is way to exhausted from none stop training".

"It's alright Argonaut-kun, just kick their butt's and I'll take that as my payment for training ya" said Tiona with a grin.

"Buy me, Jagamarukun" Ais said with stars in her eyes.

Riveria just smiled and walked over and began to heal Bell of his injuries "you two can go I need to talk to Bell for a moment".

Both of them nodded and left, leaving Bell and Riveria alone which unknown to Bell was making her heart race.

"Thank you for everything Riveria and healing me along with helping me with my magic" said Bell.

"It's n-no problem Bell, I'm happy to help" she said embarrassed.

After a moment she finished and Bell stood up and without thinking offered his hand to her, to help her up, which she took but her ears burned red.

"What did you want to talk about with me?" He asked curiously while looking her in her emerald green eyes.

Riveria felt her heart race at that, but calmed herself down and spoke professionally "I just wanted to remind you to not let your anger cloud your judgment to much when fighting. I know you probably want to hurt him more than anything, but remember that if you get angry, you need to channel it and use it, not let it use you".

"Right I understand, thank you Riveria" he said.

She smiled and was about to excuse herself but stopped.

"B-bell.. I-I'd like to give you a g-good luck charm" said Riveria as her face and ears got redder than Bells eyes.

"Um ok.. thank you for offering to give me one" he said wondering what it'd be.

"B-but first please close your eyes" she said.

Now Bell was really confused, from what he read, no elven good luck charm required someone to close their eyes. But maybe Riveria knew of one that he didn't.

"Ok" he said as he closed his eyes.

Trying her best to calm her hammering heart, she took a deep calming breath and forced her anxiety down.

Bell stood where he was for a couple seconds waiting, he then heard Riveria walk closer and he was expecting something, but not what he got.

He felt a extremely soft pair of lips touch his and a hand very gently placed on his chest.

His eyes snapped open for a moment in shock to see Riveria, the high elven princess and strongest elf/mage in the world kissing him. Him a human from a farm who came to Oraio to be a hero and start a family.

After a moment, Riveria was about to pull away as a blushing mess for kissing Bell for the first time in her life, having never expected her first kiss to be like this. But before she could, she felt Bell push back into the kiss which made her knees feel weak.

They continued the kiss and before he knew it, he placed his arms around her back and she brought her own around his neck and deepened the kiss.

She never thought a kiss could feel so good, yet it did and she could feel and hear her own heart hammering.

The lip lock ended after a couple seconds and she looked up at him shyly "t-that was a g-good luck charm... f-from a princess to her knight".

Bells eyes widened at that "Riveria do y-" he was cut off when she covered his mouth with her hand and looked away blushing madly.

"D-don't ask that now... f-focus on your fight and... I'll be cheering you on" Riveria then quickly left, heading to the Loki manor.

Bell watched her leave and his mind was racing a million miles a hour, before he sat down on the wall again and looked up at the stars.

"Grandpa what do I do.." he said more to himself.

He continued to sit where he was, until his mind suddenly screeched to a halt as he remembered something. He still had that book that Hermes gave him and told him to read.

Quickly reaching into his infinity purse, he pulled out the book and looked at it for a long moment before he opened the page.

'Dear Bell'

____

Riveria arrived at home and ate a quick dinner before going to her room while trying her best to not show how embarrassed and happy she was over kissing Bell. But thanks to years of practice, she didn't break and made it to her room.

She was about to continue to carve Bells new pipe that she was making him, much to her embarrassment because of Eowyn and Loki teasing her.

But before she could, her eyes caught onto something.

A red book with golden lettering and a note on top of it.

Grabbing the note, she began to read It.

'Ello mama, I bought this book for ya so when you and your rabbit finally seal the deal, you can rock his world, anyways have fun and also I'm not here, so don't try and find me' Loki.

Crushing the note, she looked at the book and the golden lettering hit her like a semi truck.

'101 ways to please a man! A guide for everyone from virgin to prostitute!'.

Riveria was ready to burn the book where it stood, but then a lone thought entered her head, that for some reason only now came up, when she tried her best to forget it.

"Man, elves are boring in bed.. they are so conservative and dont wanna try something new" said a male adventurer walking away from the red light district.

That thought entered her mind and with much embarrassment, Riveria the strongest elf in the world, opened the book and began to read the first page with a bright red face.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It was now the day of the wargame and Bell was putting on his new armor, it was the same design as his previous one, but this time Welf and Zidril used better quality metals to protect him better.

He even got some Goliath armor for his mid section instead of Orc hide armor.

Both Rose and Zidril were helping him with his armor while outside was his party, Hestia hasn't told him who joined, only people that he's close to, except one who was transferred here for her own happiness.

"I'm sorry I can't join you my mate, I'd probably only slow you down" said Rose sadly.

"It's ok Rose, I don't hold it against you, as long as your happy and safe, then I'm happy with it" said Bell.

She smiled as her ears folded back and her tail wagged more, brushing across the floor given she was strapping his grieves on and the fact she had a longer tail than most werewolves ending half way down her calf.

"I'm sorry as well Bell, I did want to join, but given my position, it would've been impossible" said Zidril.

"Like I said to Rose, I don't hold it against you, as long as your safe and happy" said Bell.

Zidrils elven ears wiggled in happiness.

Bell reached over and grabbed his sword and knife, strapping them on and finally, he put on his gauntlet shield.

"I will be back soon you two and I promise I will give it my all and win" said Bell with his eyes burning with determination.

They both smiled and Bell kissed them both then hugged them, before he left Zidrils apartment.

Walking outside he was shocked at who he saw.

It was Welf who had a smile on his face at seeing Bell, near him was Ryuu who dyed her hair dark green to help hide herself, plus had a piece of cloth covering the lower part of her face. Then he saw Mikoto who gave him a respectful bow.

His eyes then landed on the last person, she was just as tall as Riveria, and she wore what looked like chainmail and leather armor, plus had a cloak on with fur around her neck. She also had a round shield on her left arm and in her right, was a beautiful spear with some gold etching in it.

"Hello Bell Cranel, my name is Husfreya and from this day forward I'm apart of your Familia and your my captain" she said with a gentle smile.

"Right, it's nice to meet you Husfreya" he said extending his hand.

She took it and shook it.

He was about to look towards the others when his eyes spotted one last person, it was Naaza.

"Naaza?" He said looking at her shocked.

"Hello Bell... before you ask, I did this of my own will... and to get back at that fat elf in the guild who took away my home and let Dian Cecht to take everything I had left to repay the debt" she said.

She was expecting something like scolding or telling her not to do that, but instead he put a hand on her shoulder and gave her a gentle smile.

"As long as you remember him, he will always be in your heart" he said.

She smiled softly and then gently hugged him "Thank you for everything you did... I don't deserve your kindness".

"You showed it to me, when all I had was Hestia and sold me potions, even after telling me you used to water them down. Your worthy of my trust Naaza.

She just smiled and nodded her head before stepping back.

"So Bell what's the plan? We are facing almost 200 adventures that range between levels 1 and 2 and they have a level 3 and 4 leading them" said Welf.

They all then saw anger flash through his eyes, not only that but to Ryuu and Welf along with Mikoto, he felt much stronger and... calm.

"We are gonna destroy them" he then looked at Ryuu "I'm gonna start the battle by launching a spell, then I want you to use the magic swords Welf has and distract as many of them as you can. Husfreya what level are you?" Said Bell.

"Level 5, almost 6" she said.

"Your gonna charge straight in and take down as many as you can and Mikoto is gonna help you with that, Welf I want you to search for Lily. Hermes told me what happened to her and they have her" said Bell as his eyes got darker "Naaza I want you to provide us all support with your archery".

"What about you sir Bell?" Said Mikoto.

"Zanis and Hyakinthos are mine" he said darkly.

"Bell.. please don't fall to vengeance.." thought Ryuu looking at him.

They were all about to leave, when they heard someone call out for Bell.

"BELL!" Yelled Syr running towards him as fast as she could.

"Syr?" He said looking at her.

"S-sorry.. I meant to get here sooner but I wasn't able to" said Syr before she held up a necklace "I want you to have this for good luck".

He gently took it and smiled at her "Thank you Syr" he said.

She nodded before remembering something she needed to tell him "Bell... I know you have a lot on your plate but... a half elf named Eina came looking for you, but you weren't at the Hostess".

Tilting his head in confusion, he then saw Rose look worried.

"She thinks lots of what Apollo and Soma did was thanks to Royman and when she tried to get Ganesha and the guild to stop them, he said no and... fired her" said Syr.

Bell looked shocked before anger clouded his eyes again, but he took a deep calming breath "Thank you for telling me... if you see her, tell her I'll try and fix everything".

He then turned and started to walk towards the carriage that will take them to the fortress for the battle.

But as he walked to it, his mind went back to what Hermes said the other day when he saw him.

"It's quite suspicious Bell... guild doesn't get involved, Ganesha ordered not to interfere since it's Familia business, Rose gets fired and all her money taken away and it all leads back to a fat elf in the guild named Royman" said Hermes with a smile. "Just food for your thought Bell, especially since before all of this, Royman met with both captains of said Apollo and Somas familias".

All the pain him, Rose and his friends went through was all because of the lust and greed of a god. The greed of a captain of a Familia and lastly a greedy fat elf who only cares about money.

He will make them all pay for what they did.

____

It was the day of the wargame and the Apollo and Soma Familias prepared the fort to last three days and they were prepared for anything.

But before it started, In Babel tower, both Hestia and Artemis were sitting next to each other waiting for the game to start, but they both did feel bad for not wishing Bell good luck.

"I hope you win Hestia, Welf just joined your Familia and I want the best for him" said Hephaestus "plus Zidril would be heartbroken to her love end up in Apollos Familia".

"They will win.. Bell is much much stronger" she said as she remembered his status update and what he told her that shook her to her core about his book. Especially when she read his new skill that is almost as broken as Liaris Freeze.

She then looked at Artemis who had a small pocket where the book was and something else of Bells that was just as, if not even more precious than anything else he had now, since he lost his pipe thanks to Apollos children.

"Ah Hestia its so good to see you, along with you my beautiful Artemis" Apollo said as he moved in and grabbed some her hair and smelled it.

Artemis spun on her heel and slapped him hard for that and she glared at him with nothing but hatred "don't you ever touch me again!".

Smiling he looked back at her as a blush grew on his cheeks "Oh but my dear Artemis, you and Bell will soon be mine, so it won't matter soon anyways" he said before walking a little ways away and sat down.

Hermes saw all this and was playing with the idea of telling Bell about that incident, just so he could watch him deck Apollo.

"Lord Hermes it's time" said Asfi looking at him.

"Hmhm, Apollo is in for a rude awakening" he said before clearing his throat and snapping his finger and Yelled out loudly. "Lord Ouranos, may we use our powers!".

"Granted" said Ouranos and unknown to all the gods but Hermes, Ouranos himself created a mirror to watch this wargame or more specifically the boy that Zeus claims will be the one to kill the One eyed black dragon.

___

In the fortress all the Apollo and Soma members were on high alert as they looked over the entire area around the fortress, looking for any signs of Hestias Familia.

As they waited they then heard something.

*GONG*

The sounds of bells were heard throughout the entire area and they just kept getting louder and louder before someone finally noticed something.

"FRONT GATE, TWO ENEMIES!!!" He screamed.

Instantly they all ran to the front gate and saw Bell holding his right arm aimed at them as white sparkles formed around it and next to him was a beautiful silver haired woman with a spear and shield.

"FIREBOLT!!!!".

The blast lit up the entire area, and it rocketed straight at the front gate and when it hit a massive explosion rocked the entire foretress as the wall surrounding the gate was just gone along with the gate itself.

Before they could even fully grasp it, a elven warrior carrying two magic swords came from the west wall and jumped over the wall and swung her sword.

A massive gust of wind smashed down and blew lots of them away, before she landed on the ground and began to swing and destroy the fortress from within.

Panic began to set inside the fortress and then two more figures charged through the front gate and one went straight to the courtyard and swung her spear and hit a adventurer with so much force, he went through the wall.

The other figure pulled out her katana and began to take out all the archers to prevent any snipers.

One of them took aim at Mikoto, but then an arrow went straight into his shoulder.

"Sorry not gonna happen on my watch" said Naaza as she pulled out another arrow.

___

"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON!!!" Yelled Hyakinthos in anger.

"T-the front gate Is gone and a elf with two magic swords is destroying the f-" he was cut off when a massive slash of fire magic hit the tower and shook it.

"GRRRRR SEND IN MORE MEN!! WE HAVE THE NUMBERS!!!" Barked Hyakinthos.

"W-wait we n-need to surrender" said Cassandra.

"Oh and why is that?" said Zanis looking at her.

"In my dream, the wolf will destroy the castle with fire and lightning of rage, then... the bells will force us all on our knees" she said.

"I've had enough of your stupid dreams, Daphne take her away" said Hyakinthos.

___

Bell ran straight through the gate and saw the sheer level of destruction, already half of the Apollo and Soma Familias have been defeated and now lots of them are surrendering in fear.

"MASTER BELL!!" Yelled Lily.

His head whipped to the side and he saw Lily in a cage off to the side and she looked to be beaten black and blue.

Even more anger flooded into him, but he forced himself to calm down when Welf appeared by him.

"Do your job, I promise to keep her safe" he said before running to Lily.

A bunch of Soma members tried to jump him, but Bell prevented that by appearing before one and punching him, folding his body in half and sending him into two other members.

Welf himself easily dispatched the other two members before running to Lily.

Bell turned and began to run towards the tower where Zanis and Hyakinthos are.

___

"Oh my, they made very quick work of well over 100 adventurers, also why is Husfreya working with them, she's apart of the Freya Familia" said Finn.

No one was completely sure why since the only way she could participate is if he left Freyas Familia and Freya would never allow that.

"He's doing very good though" said Alicia with a smile and regret at not helping train him.

"He really is" said Riveria with a soft smile as she watched him race down the halls towards the tower.

___

"WHAT!? WHY IS FREYAS CHILD PRESENT!?!?! THIS BREAKS THE RULES!!" Yelled Apollo glaring at Hestia.

"No it doesn't, she's apart of my Familia, you can ask Ganesha" said Hestia.

Said God nodded.

Apollo gritted his teeth before looking at the elf who was helping the Valkyrie take out his and Somas entire Familia.

___

On the small bridge to the tower, Daphne stood with a group of mages and swordsmen waiting for a opponent to come, while she left Cassandra in the tower to defend it.

They didn't have to wait long when the gate was blasted open by a Firebolt.

The Apollo members and Soma members froze at what they saw.

Bell was walking out of the smoke and he looked just one insult away from snapping from anger.

He continued to walk towards them and one of them was a archer and took a shot, but the arrow was cut out of the air, faster than they could see.

"Get out of my way now or I will have to hurt you" said Bell.

"I'm sorry Cranel but we can't do that and I'm sure you understand why" said Daphne as she got ready to fight.

"...I do understand and I'll try not to hurt you" he said.

Bell then shot forward at almost high level 3 speeds and took out two adventurers, he then spun and kicked another and held his arm up and shot a thunderbolt taking out two mages.

Daphne moved in to attack, but Bell blocked it with his shield and his fist came and slammed straight into her gut, knocking the wind out of her.

"Sorry, but I did try not to hurt you to much" he said, helping her down before running inside the tower.

All around Orario lots of people were beyond shocked at seeing Bell effortlessly take out multiple adventurers so easily.

He continued to run until he reached the spot he wanted and took a deep breath.

*gong gong gong*

____

"Commander you have to leave this place... the wolf has entered... and he is looking for the one that hurt the red wolf" said Cassandra "pl-".

"ENOUGH!!" Hyakinthos smacked her away before looking at everyone else but Zanis in the room "all of you be ready to take Bell Cranel down as soon as he enters this room. But don't kill him. That pleasure belongs to me" he said with a twisted grin.

"L-lightning will rise.. as the chosen of Zeus" said Cassandra.

"H-".

"THUNDERBOLT!!!!" Screamed Bell as a massive blast of lightning and boom of thunder was heard and it tore straight through the entire tower and destroyed everything.

"WHAT THE!".

Zanis jumped back to try and avoid the explosion as best as possible.

In Orario the thunder was heard and everyone was shocked to see another powerful spell from someone who isn't a mage.

Hyakinthos and Zanis stood next to each other in shock as they stared at what used to be the throne room.

"Wh-" he was cut off when Bell shot forward at extremely fast speeds and appeared before Hyakinthos faster than even he could react since he isn't used to new level up.

He tried to lift his sword in time, but he misjudged it and swung his sword out away from his body and Bell got close and swung his sword and it made it's mark.

"AGHHH!" Hyakinthos lost his right eye, then Bell pushed his attack and landed a couple more slashes on him, but then he saw Zanis charge and attack, which he blocked the first strike and went in and left a cut on his cheek.

Recovering from loosing his eye, Hyakinthos moved in and began attacking and now it was two on one and Bell was holding his own but was still getting cut, but so we're they.

More cuts and slashes continued to appear on all three of them as they kept fighting, but for Bell since he actually wore armor, it was taking most of the damage.

"Zanis cover me" said Hyakinthos as he jumped back a ways and began chanting for his spell.

"My name is love, precious child of light. I offer my body to my sun. My name is sin, jealousy of wind. I call a gust of wind to my body. Released ring of fire - come, wind of the west
Rupele" said Hyakinthos.

As he chanted that, Zanis was having to give it his all, but that only went so far as Bell was easily dominating the battle and pushing him back with ease.

Zanis felt cuts appearing on him faster than his brain could register it, then Bell kicked him away and went to attack Hyakinthos, but he finished his chant by then.

A massive ring of magic appeared above him, but he then threw it at Bell.

Seeing the attack, he dodged it, but saw it coming back.

"Firebolt!".

It hit the magic but did nothing.

"Hahahaha that won't work now die!!".

The spell kept coming and Bell tried to dodge, but it exploded next to him, cutting himself and his armor up more. But around his neck, the necklace that Syr gave him broke as he smacked against the ground.

In Orario, Rose held her hands over her mouth in horror as Zidril tried to comfort her, but wasn't doing much better.

In the Loki Familia, Riveria had to bite back the urge to say his name and Ais clenched her fist hoping he was ok.

Both Hyakinthos and Zanis stood next to each other and smirked thinking it was over, but they were proven wrong when Bell stood up with hatred in his eyes and he held both his blades up.

They looked beyond pissed at Bell, he was becoming a massive annoyance.

Hyakinthos and Zanis charged at Bell and Bell raised his arm and yelled out a spell that changed everything.

"GOSPEL!!".

After he said that spell, Bell remembered the book he read and what it said to him and now that he remembers.

___

"Dear Bell if your reading this then it means your grandfather or someone he trusts has given you this book. I know this may confuse you since you have no memory of me, but I'm your aunty, Alfia and for a couple years I raised you and saw you as my own son.

When I first came to the village you were in, I only wanted to see you from a distance, but when I finally did see you.. before I knew it I was on my knees and hugging you tightly as I could without hurting you. You were only three at the time.. so small and innocent and before I could stop myself, I was living with you and your grandpa, raising you. I tried my best to stay as a aunty figure, but before I knew it, you started to call me mom and I viewed you as my son.

You were just so cute and precious and I would've given anything to stay in that village to be with you and raise you, but sadly... at the time, the world needed a hero and me and Zald had to make Orario stronger. So I had to leave, but I couldn't bear with the thought of leaving you and breaking my heart. No mother could live with that thought.

So I did something that I still regret... I used a old artifact from Hera and sealed your memories of me... but before I did, I told you what me and Zald were going to do and you... you nearly broke my heart in happiness when you said you'd be a hero and save me and cure my disease.

It hurt me so much to hear you say that, then I had to seal your memories and see you completely forget me, my heart shattered into a million pieces, but it had to be done.

After reading this I understand if you hate me and never forgive or curse my name for the rest of time. But just know this Bell, I will always love you as my son and like Meteria, your mother did.

I left my necklace in here along with my magic and notes to get access all my and your mother's money in the gnome vaults in Orario.

In this book if you ever decide to continue to read it, I wrote down mine and your real mothers lives down and all my knowledge of the dungeon and the One Eyed Black Dragon.

At the bottom of this page is a seal that will unlock your memories if you want them unlocked.

I love you Bell and I always will and I will always be looking after you even if you hate me.

Love Alfia".

When he reached the end, tears began to run down his cheeks as he touched the seal and he remembered everything.

"M-mom... w-why mom..." said Bell as tears ran down his cheeks and he began to scream in pain at the memories of his mother and how he will never see her again.

___

The sounds of bells was heard and then both Hyakinthos and Zanis were hit by the spell which made both of them crash straight into the ground and when they thought it couldn't get any worse, it did.

"LUGIO!".

The residue magic in the air around them exploded and it took out Zanis as he fell off the tower, but Hyakinthos was still hanging on.

"Damn you.. damn you, damn you, DAMN YOU!!!" He charged at Bell who brought his shield up and blocked the blow, but it groaned from the strength of a level 4.

Bell then pushed the blade away and slashed at Hyakinthos, but he dodged and lunged at Bell trying to stab him through the head.

Stepping to the side, Bell swung his sword and cut off Hyakinthos's right arm, right above the elbow.

"AGHHHHHH!!" He stepped back holding his stump and screamed even more in pain and he then looked at Bell with hatred but froze at his gaze.

"That was for Rose. Gospel".

Everything instantly went black for Hyakinthos as he was crushed by the spell and send through the floor.

Bell then slowly raised his fist high into the air to show his victory.

___

All over Orario people and gods began cheering at seeing such a epic battle but before they could continue, Bell suddenly looked straight into the mirror.

"Royman your next for allowing all of this and what you did to Rose and Eina".

Most people didn't hear it because of the cheering, but lots did hear it, especially said fat elf.

But in the Loki Familia, it was a completely different story.

"HOW DOES HE KNOW THOSE SPELLS!" Yelled Gareth standing up in shock since only one person has ever used them before.

Finns thumb was throbbing in pain, Bell knew Alfias most famous spell, what else did he know.

Riveria herself was beyond shocked as she remembered fighting her, before she fled into the dungeon and was never seen again. But she shook her head and ignored that, she was far to happy right now, seeing him win, but she does wish she heard what he said to the mirror, since Gareth screamed over it.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!".

As this was happening, Hermes smirked and nodded to Ganesha before they both left to finish Hermes plan to make Bell look like a even bigger hero than he was set to with defeating Soma given what they've been doing, plus stopping Apollo. He was now gonna save the guild by stopping Royman and exposing all his crimes.

___

Said fat elf was running as fast as his tubby legs would let him and once he got to his office, he began to fill a large back with as much Valis and wine along with other expensive stuff he's collected into the bag. Once he did that and with great effort he hoisted it up and started to race to the front of the guild where a carriage should be waiting for him.

He ran past the reception desk and made it outside and he saw the carriage, all he had to do is get in it and flee Orario and he was home free with enough valis to do anything.

"Gospel" said a male voice.

Instantly, Royman was sent straight to the ground and couldn't move his body, only his eyes and when the looked up from the ground, his entire body went cold.

Bell Cranel, covered in injuries and blood was standing before him and glaring into his very soul.

"So your Royman, the man that ruined Rose's life, fired Eina for doing her job, allowed two Familias to run around and destroy Orario and prevent the Ganesha Familia from getting involved. Not only that but you were money laundering and stealing profits from the guild to your own account and accepted bribes from Soma and Apollo" said Bell out loud.

Instantly adventurers started to glare at the fat elf.

"I-I'd never do that! I'm a honest elf!! You disgusting human!!" Barked Royman.

"That's a lie" said Ganesha in a serious tone and walking forward with his captain and vice captain behind him "I think we should bring this to Ouranos. Cranel could you come with us".

Bell nodded his head and followed them as Ganeshas vice captain dragged Royman.

___

Entering Ouranos's chamber they saw said God sitting in his chair as always, but for Bell this is the first time he's ever seen him.

"Ganesha what brings you here? And with Royman and Bell Cranel?" Said Ouranos only knowing tid bits of what's going on.

"I brought Royman here on multiple crimes, stealing funds from the guild, allowing certain Familias to run rampant do what they want as long as paid to and abuse of power to prevent me from stopping a war in the streets" said Ganesha.

"Hmm and Cranel?" Ouranos asked.

"He exposed him and made our job easier, plus he know multiple people who were effected by Royman with two of them being guild employees that were fired because of him" said Ganesha.

"Hmmm and Royman how can you explain yourself?" Asked Ouranos with a tone that only those that talked to him enough would recognize as anger.

"I-I was just doing what was right! Those two employees broke the rules and dated a adventurer" said Royman "this boy also has all his achievements Overexagated".

"And what rules did they break?" Said Ouranos.

"Dating an adventurer" he said.

Narrowing his eyes, just a hair Ouranos spoke again "that isn't a rule, just a guideline so our guild workers won't break down if the adventurer dies" said Ouranos.

Royman bite his lip in anger before looking at Bell "he laid his hands on Lady Riveria!".

Bell tried his best to stay calm, but his mind brought up the kiss and how soft and sweet Riverias lips were. Rose had a field day with teasing him that night.

"That isn't a crime as far as I'm concerned and from what Hermes explained, it was a dance" said Ouranos getting slightly annoyed.

Royman then began to continue making excuses until Ouranos narrowed his eyes which stopped him in his place.

"Ganesha, I want you to look into all of this and punish those responsible" said Ouranos before looking at Royman "you'll be handed to Ganeshas Familia and brought to prison for your crimes".

"W-what!? No lord Ouranos!" Said Royman, but if was to late as the vice captain of Ganeshas Familia who Bell saw was a elf with short white hair.

But before he could say anything, Ouranos spoke.

"Bell Cranel, you have done Orario a service today and I owe you for that" he said looking at him.

"I.. I was just doing what was right, him, Apollo and Soma ruined so many peoples lives because of greed and he also ruined Rose's life by taking all her money and firing her. Then not to long ago he fired Eina for getting feelings for a adventurer" said Bell.

Ouranos nodded his head "I will invite them back if they wish to continue working and have a new leader of the guild".

"Eina might.. Rose has already joined my Familia" said Bell.

"I see, very well. Now to pay the debt I and the guild owe you for all of this" said Ouranos.

Bell shook his head and smiled lightly "just make sure all those that got screwed over by Apollo and Soma along with Royman are helped, that's all I want".

Ouranos stared at him for a moment before his lips twitched upwards, just ever so slightly as he nodded his head "Very well, you may leave Cranel".

Bell bowed and left the chamber with Ganesha and his captain leaving as well.

Once he was sure he was alone, Ouranos spoke "I must admit he did well and Zeus and Hermes were right that he will be a great hero... don't you agree Odin?".

He turned his head to a lone raven sitting on one of the ledges that was staring downwards, before the raven looked at Ouranos and it closed its eyes before opening its right eye showing a piercing yellow.

"Indeed and he has caught my interest, especially after today" Odin said through his raven.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Bell, his party and everyone he knew were all now in the Hostess Of Firtility and they were celebrating the Hestia familias victory.

"Good job Bell" said Rose hugging him tightly and rubbing her cheek against his and even moved her tail so it was brushing against him.

"Thank you Rose" he said moving his head and kissing her forehead, making her tail wag more.

Zidril immediately ran over and hugged him, while planting a large kiss right on his lips.

"You did amazing Bell" she said happily which made him chuckle and kiss her back.

"Oi kid, this is a party, not a make out fest" said Gareth.

He immediately froze as the dark glares from Bells two lovers and he took a large sip of his mead and tried to look anywhere else.

"Alright everyone start making your orders then get back to this party that you all paid for" Yelled Mia.

Everyone began to give orders to waitresses and for Bell, Ryuu came to him and he ordered a roasted rooster bit then said something else as he remembered something "I'd like some mead as well".

Ryuu raised a eyebrow at that "Bell why do you want one?" She asked curiously.

"Well I'm 16 now" he said.

Half the people in the room stopped and all looked at Bell, but one person in particular had the most intense gaze.

It was Rose and her pupils narrowed and the voice she's kept under lock and key, came screaming out at her to mate with him.

"WAIT BELL IT WAS YOUR BIRTHDAY!?! WHEN AND WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL US!!" Yelled Hestia.

"Oh.. well it was two days ago, but we were so busy with training and getting ready to fight, it completely went over my head" said Bell.

After he said that, people began yelling at him and saying he should've said something.

Riverias ears drooped down slightly and felt horrible, but then she realized something. He said it was two days ago and that was when sh-.

*poof*

Her face instantly went red and it looked like her head was steaming.

People began telling him happy birthday, while those closer to him said they had to set a day to properly give him a birthday.

But as it went on, everyone noticed one thing, Rose never left his side and those who've seen it enough, recognized the look in her eyes and didn't try to get in her way. That was something Bell was gonna have to deal with tonight.

"Bell" said a voice and he turned around to see Ais and Alicia standing infront of him "you did very good".

"It was very impressive to watch, I must admit, you've gotten very strong, it's pretty scary" said Alicia looking at him.

"It's only thanks to your help training Ais and thank you Alicia and I wish I could help others grow like me" he said.

As he was talking to them, he didn't notice Rose leave his side for a moment to talk to Zidril and she had a slight blush on her cheeks. But after a minute Zidril nodded her head and handed her the keys to her apartment.

"Master Bell" said Lily finally seeing him and before he could fully turn around, Lily hugged him as tightly as she could.

"Hey Lily, how are you?" He asked as he gently patted her head.

"Better.. and thank you for saving Lily and Lily is sorry for getting captured" she said.

"Hey it's ok, it's not your fault, Lily, and I wasn't gonna let my friend be captured by that Familia and used as a money making machine" said Bell.

Lily smiled and hugged him tighter "thank you again Bell..".

"Here you are Bell" said Ryuu walking over with some mead, which he thanked her for and took it before taking a sip.

"Wow.. it's sweet... but good" he said shocked.

"ALRIGHT GARETH DRINKING CONTEST!! LOOSER PAYS THE TAB!!" Yelled Bete.

"Hahahaha your on pup" said Gareth laughing loudly.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

(Very short lemon)

"That was fun" said Bell a little tipsy from drinking, but thankfully didn't get drunk. He was currently walking with Rose who was holding his arm and the entire walk she didn't stop blushing and her tail was brushing against his back.

They soon made it to Zidrils apartment since she didn't live with the rest of her Familia given the amount of people who used to annoy her.

"Where's Zi-" he was cut off when Rose smashed her lips against his own in almost pure desperation. Her hands then began to work and unbuckle the armor still on him.

Bells mind was spinning from the alcohol, then Rose kissing him with so much passion and before he knew it, he was kissing her even harder and taking off his own armor as well.

The armor smashed on the floor, yet they didn't stop kissing as Rose then quickly unbuckled his belt making his sword and knife fall to the ground.

Rose while still kissing him, slid her hands under his shirt and let out a small moan in excitement at feeling his abs, but then she felt some scars. But she didn't stop, she just gently brushed her hand over them.

Bell was kissing her and his arms were on her back almost desperately pulling her closer and before he knew it, his grandfather's training kicked in and his hand moved down to her butt and tail. But not before breaking the kiss and nipping her ear, right when he squeezed her butt.

Rose let out a throaty moan at that and didn't think it could get better, until he kissed her again then grabbed the base of her tail and gave it a small yank.

"Ahhhh!" She let out a throaty moan and her legs almost gave under her.

Bell was panting as he stared at her, but then his mind began to clear up and was about to say something, but Rose stopped him.

"I want you.. we already promised our love, but tonight I want to give you my body as your birthday present, after tonight, it will always belong to you and no one else. So please Bell, make love to me as I make love to you" she said looking into his red eyes.

Rose was then suddenly picked up by her legs as Bell held her, but his hands quickly landed on her butt and he carried her to Zidrils bedroom.

She herself quickly wrapped her legs around him and kissed him again, with it becoming much heavier and they even began to use tongue, which Rose immediately surrendered herself to and let him dominate her, making her moan into his mouth.

Once they reached the bed, he placed her on it and they both quickly began to rip off their clothes, before they were fully naked and Bell was above her, kissing her and feeling her body, especially her large breasts which he pinched and bite, makimg it feel like he was markimg them as his, made her moan more and more at that revelation

Rose kept moaning and scratched his back with her sharper nails as they continued to kiss and she moaned even louder when she felt Bell grind something hard against her core. Looking down, she felt her walls tighten at seeing it; it was big, but not ridiculously big. It was big enough to make her feel all of it and leave her a moaning mess.

"Rose I love you.. in this life and our next" he said, lining himself up to her entrance.

"I love you too Bell and I will for the rest of our lives and our next lives" she said as he then reached down and held her hand, interlocking fingers with her.

She then felt him push himself in her and she moaned loudly as he filled her and she felt beyond happy and didn't think it could get better, but it did.

She felt a sharp pain on the base of her neck and shoulder and realized what he was doing. Tears of happiness welled up in her eyes and she immediately opened her own mouth and bite him in the same spot on his own neck.

Rose felt him move in her and she moaned in both happiness and love as tears rolled down her cheeks.

With them biting each other, he made her his official mate in werewolf culture and now she was Rose Cranel. His wife and he, her husband.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Damn him" said Apollo as him and Hyakinthos were leaving Orario after signing everything over to Hesita and having to release all his children that wanted to leave and sadly it was all but his captain. "Don't worry, one day we'll get our revenge against him".

"I will get stronger and kill him lord Apollo" said Hyakinthos in anger as they both headed to Altena in hopes that Athena will give them shelter.

They were a couple miles outside the walled city and we're heading to the closest town when a large figure appeared out of the woods that made them both freeze.

It was Ottar and he looked pissed.

"You hurt my lady's beloved and almost took away someone very important to him and her" said Ottar glaring at Hyakinthos.

"W-what are you doing here" said Apollo.

Ottar didn't answer, no he just disappeared and appeared next to Apollo and was holding a choking Hyakinthos by his throat.

"You made my goddess very angry and she's going to make you suffer for everything you've done" Ottar said with blood lust before his eyes landed on Apollo. "If recommend leaving unless you want to be monster food".

Before he could say anything, Ottar left as fast as he appeared and Apollo then saw monsters running towards him, so he ran himself.

___

Hyakinthos was thrown to the ground and tried to stand up, but a spear cut off his ear, making him freeze as he saw Allen Fromel standing above him with hatred.

Then he heard the sounds of heels clicking and looked up and saw Freya standing before him in all her beauty.

"So your Hyakinthos, correct?" She said with a kind smile.

"Y-yes lady Freya" he said.

"Good" she said before her smile turned malicious and her true intent came out.

"You hurt my Odr and almost took away someone he loves and I see as mine as well. For that I shall make you suffer a fate worse than death" said Freya as her eyes pierced straight into his soul and any hope he had, instantly vanished in that moment.
