⚠️ Disclaimer:
I have no rights to this story - this is obviously fanfiction.
I wrote this to satisfy my craving because Alise Lovell is my favorite character in DanMachi and I was sad she was dead well before the story began. I'm sorry for any spoilers I'm assuming like me you've read the whole thing.
(AU) Alternate Universe of DanMachi
Crimson Ghosts of Astraea
📖 Story Description
What if Alise Lovell survived the Juggernaut?
What if the Captain of the Astraea Familia walked the backstreets of Orario, blacklisted beside Ryu Lion, her fire dimmed but not extinguished?
In this Alternate Universe of Is It Wrong to Try to Pick Up Girls in a Dungeon?, the flame of justice thought lost begins to flicker again.
Bell Cranel is still the boy who dreams of being a hero. But his path twists the moment Alise's eyes find him - a reckless rabbit who refuses to quit. Drawn to his stubborn spark, she shadows him in the Dungeon, pushes him to his limits in secret training, and rediscovers a hope she swore had died with her Familia.
Meanwhile, Ryu struggles between fear and belief. She sees in Bell the same reckless fire that once consumed her - and wonders whether he will share her fate or defy it.
Together, these three lives collide in a story of justice, betrayal, and rebirth. From Monsterphilia to the Minotaur, from secret alcoves to crowded taverns, Bell's journey is no longer his alone. The ghosts of Astraea walk with him.
Action.
Loss.
Bonds are stronger than death.
This is the story of how one boy's dream and one woman's flame reshaped Orario's future.
