Chapter 38 - 38- Aftermath and expedition

After the dust was settled, all that was left was a gash in the ground that went for a dozen meters before stopping just before the exterior wall of the mansion.

As everyone was looking at the destruction the attack caused, Learner was looking at Bell with at questioning face.

Meanwhile Bell was staring at the light in his hands that was slowly dimming.

'What was that? I was just thinking about cutting through his defenses but I didn't know it would be this strong' Bell thought looking around trying to find Calvin and finding him a couple meters to the side where Bell attacked.

Calvin was standing to the side he was bleeding from all over and had several 2nd degrees burns in his body.

"You wanted to kill me?" Calvin said slowly walking towards him.

"N-no! I just didn't know it would be like this, are you okay?" Bell said.

"Calm down, I'm okay just some burns, what about you? It feels like you got stronger" Calvin said.

"Well now that you say It" Bell said moving his arms around and slashing at the air "I think my stats went up by at least 200!" Bell exclaimed with amazement.

In that Haruhime approached along with Wiene.

"Calvin! Are you alright? Please drink this" she said taking out a potion and then turned to Bell.

"And Bell-Sama, please refrain yourself from doing that in the house! Imagine what would Hestia say if-" She wasn't done lecturing Bell when a shout interrupted her.

"WHAT IN HEAVENS HAPPENED HERE?!?!" Hestia shouted.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

After a good earful of complaining by Hestia everyone went to rest and take a bath.

Now everyone was relaxing at the hot spring while Calvin looked at the screen in front of him.

[Beli Ma level 18,19,20! +3 Sta

Please chose an ability...

[Long Range: increase Beli Ma's range by Int%.

New range= 3 meters]

[Bent Manipulation level 11,12!]

[Superior constitution level 11! +1 Bdy]

[13/32 warp remaining]

'Now I just need to level up Bent manipulation and Superior constitution to 15, then I'll have 6 Warp left' Calvin thought relaxing in the water.

Suddenly the door opened and from it came a naked Wiene making Bell scream like a girl and bury himself in the water with a red face, while Welf looked the other way.

Thankfully the steam of the hot spring covered Wiene's body, she then looked around and fixed her gaze in Calvin and ran to him.

"Onii-chan!" she said getting closer but before she could reach him a pair of arms stopped her.

"Eh?" Wiene let out a surprised voice a she couldn't feel the floor anymore.

"You can't go to the boy's bath; humans separate bath by gender" a voice said putting a towel around Wiene's body.

As the steam cleared up it revealed Learner's smokin' hot body (literally) wrapped in a towel holding Wiene in her hands.

She then turned around and walked out of the room as Wiene complained about it.

Calvin looked at this with a small smile thinking on how this place was very lively with the new addition to the Familia.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> [the next day] <<<<<<<<

Everyone was at the living room discussing about what to do with the information of talking monsters.

"Should we tell the guild about Wiene?" Bell asked Hestia.

"No, that would put us on the sights of the other Familias, before we tell anyone, I need to know if there are more monsters like her, we need to investigate" Hestia said looking a Calvin.

"Maybe we could find some clues about her origin in the place we found her" Welf said from the side making Learner pay more attention to the conversation.

Calvin noticed that and thought of going there again to see if he could to find another "unusual" monster.

"Then an expedition to the 22nd floor?" Calvin asked Hestia.

"That would be the best option, it'll take a couple days but I think that we could get more information this way" she said putting her elbows in the table and bringing her hands in front of her mouth.

'This girl- Woman do can get serious from time to time' Calvin thought looking at the "serious" Hestia.

"Understood! Then, me, Lili, Welf and Calvin will go to the dungeon while Haruhime and Mikoto stay here making sure nothing happens to Wiene" Bell said straightening his back.

"aren't we forgetting someone here?" Calvin said getting up from the sofa and walking to where learner was seating.

"She might not look strong but she can be deadly" Calvin said going behind Learner and grabbing her shoulders.

Calvins statement was of course received with skeptical eyes from the familiar.

"Y-you guys really don't put any trust in her" Calvin said acting hurt from the gazes.

"Of course not! It's just that we never really saw her fight" Mikoto said.

"Well, that is because she's an excellent magician" Calvin said.

He then lowered himself to Learner's ear and whispered 'Use only magic if something happens, okay? Don't go scaring them doing freaky things'

Learner stared at him for a few seconds before nodding as she really didn't have a reason to use her "full-power" yet.

Learner then extended her hand and made 4 balls being each one a different element.

A "Woah" scaped Bell's mouth as he looked that the different types of magic.

"Chant less magic?" Haruhime said.

"A MULTI-ELEMENTAL MAGE?!" Hestia screamed while looking at Learner's hand.

Having magic was already rare but having elemental magic was even more rare, for a person to use magic they must have some affinity to that respective element but for a person to have affinity for 4 elements at once, the chances where one in a million!

"See? Super-duper strong now you believe in her?" Calvin said ignoring the still in shock goddess that seemed to be thinking really hard.

"Y-yeah" Bell said.

"Well, at least we know that the house is safe" Welf said.

"Alright then! Let's go to the dungeon right away!" Bell said.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

After everyone got ready Bell, Lili, Welf along with Calvin left to the dungeon.

On the way to the dungeon Bell gave the idea of bringing Ryuu along to make the way easier.

Calvin didn't protest as he still had Warp to use and he didn't want to use one on accident by killing to many monsters or using skills.

Now outside the Hostess of fertility Bell was talking to Syr and Ryuu about the situation while Calvin and the group silently watched from the side.

However, Calvin was putting more attention to the white-haired woman as she was still a mystery to him.

"...so, I was hoping that you could come with us" Bell asked Ryuu a bit ashamed about asking her for help while she was working.

"Cranel... I'm sorry but I still have work to do here" Ryuu respectfully said making Bell lose hope on getting her into joining the mission.

And just as he was about to talk again...

"Bell Cranel!" A busty amazon woman shouted from the distance

"Aisha? What are you doing here?" Bell asked her.

"I was passing by and decided to check on Haruhime but then saw you here, what are you doing?" she said putting her arm around Bell making him blush.

"Well, we wanted to go to Rivira to complete a mission of some sorts" he said.

"Ho? Then if it's just going there and come back, I can take the job, But I must warn you that I'm not cheap" she said holding Bell's hand behind his back.

"Stop it amazon" Ryuu intercepted.

"Ha? Do you have something with this male?" Aisha said looking at Ryuu.

"No, he already has a partner" Ryuu said looking at syr making her blush and look away.

Looking at this Calvin was even more confused 'is this woman really something more? Maybe her acting is just so good that I can't really tell' He thought while looking at the woman in question.

Just as he was thinking that a flying plate came out of nowhere in his direction and as soon as it got close to him it seemed to lose a lot of speed before Calvin calmly caught it.

"Wach out!" Lili shouted before realizing that Calvin just caught the plate.

"Anyway, Syr I'm going to take the day off" Ryuu said looking at Aisha.

"Uh? Why?" Syr asked.

"I'm going to protect Bell's chastity" Ryuu answered.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

[17th Floor]

The group was fighting a party of Lygerfangs and hellhounds, as the group was fighting Calvin was just waiting for them to finish when a hellhound spawned right above him.

"Well, that's cheating" he said jumping backwards dodging the monster.

He kept kiting the monster for a while when a giant cutlass split it in half.

"Boy you haven't killed a single monster until now, don't tell me that all you might was just a show off" Aisha said to Calvin.

Calvin looked at her for a second before speaking.

"I have my reasons" he said.

"Ho? I'm starting to think that you were cheating all this time" she said burying her sword in the ground and leaning on it.

"Ah? You are still on about that? I thought you gave up after the 3rd rematch" Calvin said with a mocking expression remembering the times he went to the Red-light district.

"You! I know you were cheating that night!" Aisha exclaimed.

"I wasn't I'm just more skilled" Calvin plainly said.

"I want another rematch! This time I'll win for sure" she said.

"Again? I mean I guess I can do that, but let's do it when we get back to the surface" Calvin said accepting her challenge.

"Hm" Aisha nodded and walked off with a mysterious smile.
