Otherworlder's Adventure In The Dungeon.

[Arc 1]Chapter 5

Ryu Lions' POV

After obtaining Mia's permission I led the woman - Hephaestus - in while carrying the unconscious boy towards a spare room.

"HAHAHAHA! You did it again!", Mia was fully laughing and giggling like a child, when she heard what I did.

'It's not funny.', I thought with deadpanned eyes.

"It is funny.", Mia commented almost as if she was reading my mind.

"Haa~...", I took a deep sigh and then I realised something. Syr and the others are giggling. This immediately caused my face go redden because the embarrassment was getting to me.

To let the embarrassment die down I went to the boy's room to see how he was doing.

"Hmm...", I inspected the boy's appearance.

The boy's appearance consisted of black hair and slightly pale skin. It was a healthy pale, though. From what I've seen earlier his eyes are deep blue, he looks healthy and he's wearing simple clothing. His face is slightly cute, however for some reason I feel like he should be a bit older. The age of his appearance is that of a 10 year old, but my elven instincts tell me that he should at least be 12 years old. So perhaps...

'A descent of an elf..? However feeling this much of a familiarity makes it feel like he's the descent of an elven royalty...', I frowned. 'Due to the magic sword business, the high elves should have a grudge against humans... There are few high elves - or elves in general - that would even think of ridding their hate of magic swords and humans.'

I could feel my frown turn neutral as I continued to think.

'Me and the Loki familia's Riviera are different cases considering that I wasn't directly affected and Riviera discarded her royal heritage.'

"What are you thinking about?", I heard a slightly deep feminine voice call out to me, as my ears twitch.

"He's strange.", I said to Hephaestus.

"How so?", she chuckled slightly then asked.

"He has royal elven blood, however it's just a small amount. It's strange that elven royalty would even dare to... copulate with a human.", I blushed slightly when I said 'copulate' because I'm very nervous and new around those areas.

"He's a strange one, alright.", Hephaestus said with a chuckle.

"He has unheard of abilities and skills, he also has the two most important parts of the skill set.", Hephaestus said with a grin.

"The two most important parts?", I inquired.

"Yes. It's kindness...", Hephaestus implied that there was more and so I urged her with my attention.

"And determination.", Hephaestus spoke while looking at me deep in the eyes.

Hephaestus knows of my circumstances because she was there by coincidence, when I tried to eliminate the remnants of Evilus. I think Evilus is still around, no, I'm sure of it.

"I haven't even lost a cent of my determination.", I replied to Hephaestus sternly, while looking directly into her eye.

"Haha... I guess so. It's not my business, anyway.", Hephaestus giggled at my determination, as if she was complimenting me.

After a while in silence, I spoke up.

"Where did you find him?"

"The sky.", Hephaestus said while looking slightly exasperated.
