"Soup's on! Grab a drink! Pass ''em around let's celebrate in honor of our newest companion and our first surface-dwelling guests!" Lido says as they grab drinks and clink them together.

"Am I dreaming this" Welf asks "I can always pinch your cheeks to make sure" Lili says pinching her own cheek as we all hold a drink except I actually drink some of mine.

"And that's when Bell and Papa swooped into save me" Wiene says telling the story of how me and Bell found her. "Is that so would you say that their odd I mean their gentleman right" Ray says to Wiene.

"What's that supposed to mean" Bell asks as I chuckle. "Bellcchi!" Lido shouts as I chuckle. "Hey am I Bellcchi" Bell asks confused. "Don't be shy eat all you like we picked these not far from here I hear they're a rarity on the surface" Lido says giving bell a fruit so bell smells it.

He takes a bite and is suprised "that's tasty!" Bell says ina suprised tone as he stares at the fruit. "I know right" Lido grins and is happy. I look up and see Haruhime and Mikoto being handed fruit and I try not to laugh at their expressions.

"So, uh did you get those weapons from a Adventurer?" Bell asks looking at Lido's swords. "Yep treasures that once belonged to and unsuspecting person who attacked me similar to the way you kind collects claws and tusks after defeating monsters right" Lido says unsheathing a sword and looking at it.

"We'll I suppose so" Bell says as I finish the drink. "Man made weapons are a thing of beauty! Much sharper than the plants that grow 'round these parts sturdier too I mean nothing of our even comes close" Lido says as bell looks around at the Xenos and smile.

"Lido, put and end to this foolish charade" we look over at the other side where some other Xenos are as Lido becomes irritated. "As you know these are people that we're dealing with they don't deserve our trust" We look up and see what looks like a grey dragon above them.

"Are you still on that Glos? Bellcchi and his Friends protected the Wiene the whole time Fels said so remember in fact the only reason we had to rough 'em up like that was cause you weren't convinced" Lido says as Glos makes annoyed grunt.

"Sorry 'bout him some of the guys are struggling to adjust we were all kinda nervous when we heard that surface dwellers would be visiting us" Lido says speaking to Bell as I lean back.

"Oh it's fine" Bell says leaning forward a bit. "Still it should be obvious to 'em by now that you guys are different than other adventurers" Lido says as Glos sighs and I sit up.

Welf and Lili slide down next to me and Bell "questions! I was wondering something the guild knows that you're down here huh?" Welf asks as Lido grins.

"Uh-huh! Theyve been pullin' some strings to keep the truth about us hidden and sending food and weapons every now and then for awhile" Lido says as Welf and Lili are shocked.

"We'll its not so much the guild as a god named Uranus most people who work for a guild don't know anything about us" Lido says shocking us. "So then... our mission to travel to the 20th floor was arranged by Whom?" Lili asks as Lido keeps grinning.

"Proposed by Master Uranus and his crew we agreed to lend a hand to discern the potential of the people who would protect one of our brethren, he said" Lido says quoting Urarnus.

"Basically the head of the guild was testing all of us" Welf says after scratching his head. "But y'know after hearing about you guys I had high hopes thought t myself, The winds of change are upon us" Lido sways as Bell starts thinking.
