Announcement for the next arc in the an

Bell POV

I slowly pulled my bowstring back careful not to make too much noise. The bush provided ample cover hiding me from the deer. I summoned the mana arrow and aimed at the deer's heart. Everything was quiet and calm. I took a deep breath in and let it out. Feeling a sense of absolute calm I loosed the arrow. The arrow flew through the air and hit its mark. The deer dropped to the ground dead.

I got out of the bush I was hiding in and began to walk to the deer. I took a good look at it and confirmed it was dead. I slung my bow over my back and picked the deer up. Throwing it over my shoulder I began to walk back home. Halfway through the journey however I felt something bite my neck.

Smack

My hand quickly shot up and hit the creature that bit me. I took my hand away and saw the body of a spider in my hand. Thinking nothing of it I brushed the spider off my hand using my pants and continued walking home.

My eyes opened after a good night of sleep in my own bed. I got out and stretched feeling my muscles pop as I did so. I looked towards Regis's dog bed and saw he was still there sleeping as well. I decided to let him sleep as I put a lot on him mentally recently.

I opened the door and began to walk towards the main room. I saw Miach and Nazha cooking breakfast while Lili sat at the table with her head down.

"Morning Bell," Miach said.

"Morning," I said with a yawn as I sat next to Lili. I then poked Lili on the cheek causing her to lift her head and look at me.

"You know you can go back to sleep right? We're not going to the dungeon for a few days" I reminded.

"Lili knows. Lili is just hungry. She'll eat and go back to sleep" she said with a yawn. She then put her head back on the table.

"Good morning!" Lena yelled as she came out of her room. I heard Lili groan and I gave Lena a tired look.

"How are you this full of energy already," I asked. "Because today is gonna be a good day," she said sitting on the other side of Lili. I heard Lili groan once again at the noise.

"Lena quiet down your annoying Lili" Aisha said taking her seat next to me. "Oh lord Miach Lady Nazha please let me help with breakfast," Haruhime said.

"You don't need to Haruhime. Please sit and let us serve the brave adventurers who heroically returned for their dungeon escapade" Nazha said with a hint of sarcasm in her voice. Haruhime did as Nazha asked and sat across from me.

"Where's Regis" Lili asked.

"5,4,3,2,1," I said counting down

"You guys are fucking loud" he stopped and sniffed the air. "Is that bacon?" he asked.

"You know I sometimes wonder if you have the brain of a child" I quipped. "It would still be better than yours" was his reply. Regis then walked and took his spot under Lili's chair.

Miach and Nazha then served us the normal breakfast of pancakes, bacon, and eggs. I didn't have to give Regis a piece of bacon this time as Lili had grabbed one of hers and dropped it to him. He caught it mid-air and began devouring the thing.

"So what's everyone's plans for today," Miach asked as he sat down. "Lili is going back to sleep after she finishes her breakfast" Lili mumbled.

"Lena, Haruhime and I are gonna go shopping" Aisha then turned toward me. "Wanna come with Bell?" She asked. Now if my grandpa's knowledge taught me anything. It's to never go shopping with women as they take forever.
