True Power

I was just doing a random quick write with some music in the background, and this one song gave me inspiration to make some sort of story where Bell has some hidden power. This takes place during the black Goliath fight, It will be a lot stronger though.

Bell and his party were just about to leave before the ceiling above them started to crack. Loud roars can be heard, the ceiling above them finally collapsed, only to reveal the Goliath, but it was different. The Goliath radiated an energy of rage and destruction. It started to attack the surrounding adventurers, they couldn't fight it so they retreated.

"Bell! You can't do it!" Lili shouted

"She's right Bell" Hestia said, "it's too dangerous"

"Hestia, I can't just retreat knowing that other people are dying out there" Bell said as he continued to walk towards the Goliath, "it's a captain's duty to protect their familia" and with that Bell ran off, Hestia and Lili where held back by Welf, and Ryuu

"Don't worry Hestia and Lili" Welf assured, "it's Bell we're talking about, he'll definitely come back"

"Welf, you must take them and return back to the town" Ryuu said, "I'll run back and tell the Loki Familia to come back" Welf nodded and took Lili and Hestia back to the town, Ryuu quickly left and went to get help

Bell POV
Come on! Hurry up, there are people that need help! You need to help them.

"Everyone! Go back to the town! They have mage's with healing magic!" Bell shouted, "they are ready to take care of the wounded!"

"Little rookie" one of the said, "it's too strong"

"Mord, go to the tent!" Bell said, "here drink this" Bell handed Mord a regeneration potion which should be enough for Mord to recover enough to walk back.

"Little rookie, you better come back alive" Mord said weakly

"Of course Mord!" Bell said, "please help everyone back!" Bell dashed off toward the Goliath, it was way larger than the original. It wasn't an enhanced species, it was something much more stronger.

Bell ran close enough to the Goliath and it saw Bell, the Goliath tried to hit Bell, he barely dodged it. He quickly went under it and fired a firebolt at it's back.

"Firebolt!" Bell shouted, it barely did anything since firebolt was used more for its speed rather than its power. But what shocked Bell the most is what the Goliath did next. It pointed its hand at Bell and a firebolt came out.

"It copied my magic!" Bell said, "this is bad!" He looked around to see if there were some other people, he saw no one.

"this is good. As long as no one's around they should be okay" Bell thought, "but how do I take it out!? Where is it's magic stone?" Bell ran up to see if he can locate the stone, he used his knife to make small cuts as he ran up the Goliath, he was about to reach its head until he was punched off by the Goliath.

Just as Bell was punched, Ryuu had returned with some members of the Loki Familia, they tried to run at Bell only to be blasted out, it was like the Goliath had out some sort of barrier around them.

"Bell! You have to get up!" Everyone yelled out, all they could do is watch as Bell was about to die in front of them.

Bell's Mindscape
Bell opened his eyes and looked around, he saw that he was at his old village. In the distance he saw his grandpa's old farm house, he ran inside and saw that the place looked exactly how he left it.

"It's just like how I left it" Bell said, "but why am I back here?"

"That's because you I brought you here" a voiced called out, Bell looked behind himself to see a face he thought he never would never see again.
