Supporter and a Goddesses Rage.

A brand new day started for Bell Cranel, yesterday was quite a surprise since he found out some adventurers aren't too kind to others. He recalled back to the small person being harassed by them.

He intervened without thinking it through, eventually it was almost a confrontation until Ryuu Lion passed by chance, seeing the mop of white hair unique to one Bell. She had narrowly squinted her eyes to the adventurers as they scurried off. Ryuu gave him a warning that he might not be so lucky next time. And that's when he pointed out that they were harassing someone else before him. When he turned around, the person who he had protected wasn't there anymore.

He bid Ryuu a thank you and a farewell.

Twighlight Mansion

Loki was angry. No, she was pissed. To think her 'friend' Freya is interested in her Blue-kun and Itty-bitty's only familia member too.

So when she heard that her Blue-kun had sensed a certain charm to the monsters that were slain by her Aizu, it had Freya all over it. Ishtar never left her home and even so, she wouldn't charm monsters, since she runs the Red Light District otherwise known as the Pleasure Quarter.

She drank from her wine bottle with haste. "...Just what are you going to do next ya, Skank...?" She couldn't predict the future. No one can. The possibilities were endless, which made her fearful for her familia.

It is either the Dungeon, or War that'll severely cause harm.

But she needed not to worry. She had a wildcard. An ace in the deck. He could make miracles, He can make the impossible possible. However, she didn't want him to use it after all that.

"...Ha..." And then she heard a knock. "Loki?" It was him, her ace in the deck. He was slanted at the doorway. "You are thinking about what Freya said right?"

She was and still is. Freya never charmed any plant monster. She specifically stated she only charmed the ones in the Ganesha Cells.

"I am...it just doesn't make any sense. Come here. I don't want you standing there all day." And so he did what he was asked, sitting next to her. "There is another person in the fray of this whole situation. The unknown is scary. Even for us top familias. When you weren't around, there used to be 2 familias at the top of Orario." She didn't know why she was saying this...probably from drinking all morning. "The Zeus and Hera Familias were the strongest ones around. In an essence they were the ones to answer the call to protect Orario, such as the now Ganesha Familia and the disbanded Astrea Familia." She missed those girls in particular. An energetic bunch.

"However, nothing is meant to last. The Zeus and Hera Familias lost against the 3rd Great Threat known as the One-Eyed-Black Dragon." She felt a shift of movement. Makoto held his Evoker. "There is one Persona in my arsenal that can slay it with ease..."

That's right...he could summon Personas. Thousands of them. So many beings, God's, Demons, Angels, Fairies, monstrosities of calamity.

And all he had to do was to pull the trigger.

It was certainly cheating. She knew that too. Her mind relaxed, her body not so stiff anymore. It was reassuring to have him by her side...

She drew a blush, her hands at her cheeks. 'No! I MUST SAVE MYSELF FOR AIZU!'

She looked at his face...she wanted to pounce. In the end, she was back to normal, albeit a bit more happy. The reason being, she had kissed him on the cheek.

A personal win for the Goddess of Mischief. Score one for Loki, Zero for Makoto.

Babel

"Ottar..." She had beckoned for her personal guard. The behemoth of a man, entered his Goddess's room. "Yes, my Goddess?" Freya smiled. Ottar truly was her special "child". Always looking out for her, yet not daring to object her demands and wants.

"...Will you find out all about Bell Cranel and Yuki Makoto for me? Any information that you gather will be reported at once." Freya swirled the wine in glass cup, the liquid swaying in in a circle formation. "Yes, My Goddess." He had bowed and left the room, slowly closing the door.

"...Still...those plant monsters...someone else is pulling the strings." She didn't liked to be framed for a commotion she had supposedly started with the Loki Familia. She pondered.

Could it be Evilus? No. It couldn't be, she had heard that Gale Wind had killed every member of the group without remorse.

However, could they be hiding in the dungeon somewhere? It was a possibility. No matter, as long as she had Ottar, the King, nothing could stop her from...erasing an existence that dared to trifle with her name.

Front Gate - Entrance of the Dungeon

"Miss Eina only cleared me to floor 7..." He had thought about what she had said. To obtain more members in his familia or party up with other adventurers. Safe to say, they couldn't really afford to house another familia member at the moment, so he figured he would have to solo the dungeon for now.

Before even taking a step, he felt a tug at his shirt. "Mr.Adventurer! It seems you require a supporter, fear not, you will only need to pay me 30% in my services, sounds like a deal?" He swore he could  recognize this person in front of him, but from where?

"Are you the person who I ran into the other day?" He said unknowingly. "I don't really know Mister." He looked at her once moreover. "If they did look like me, then I must watch out - yet they do not have my pallum features do they?"

They did not, but you can't blame him. They had a hood on the other day so he couldn't get a good look of them.

"You are rightfully so - Miss?" She gotten the gist of things. "Lilicua Arde." "Bell Cranel, let's get along shall we?"

'Too easy going...'

...

Misha Flott - a guild member and a friend to one half elf, Eina Tulle, was currently being faced by one of the Loki Familia members. Said member had wild blue hair and looks as if he was a prince in hiding might she add. Did she forget to mention he looked like those who hail from the Eastern side?

Anyways, she was appointed to him under the order of Ouranos. Why? The hell if she knew. It just meant she didn't have to worry about another adventurer getting reported missing or dead. She had a strong heart for sure, alas, Eina does not.

She was exasperated. "Is something wrong Miss Flott?" Ah...she still had an adventurer to attend to. "Sorry about that, I was just engrossed with my thoughts. Now, where were we?"

"What are the drop chances from the middle floor monsters?" That was a particular question. She didn't really know. "There isn't enough data about the chances of drops. You would have to be extremely lucky to even get a drop."

"I see...I have another question. How does one solo through floor 23?"

!

And cut. 1.2k words. I do hope the pacing was a bit more better.

With that done. Finally, 2 and half weeks of not writing is away. Ha...

Comments please.

Bye.

Baka.
