Chapter 16 - CHAPTER 16: THE WINNERS

"Let's have a round two," Rett's mom shouted. 

"No need for that, if my daughter doesn't want to get married, I agree with her," Mello's dad declared and walked up to her. 

"Things are turning for our good now," Levi said satisfied with himself.  

Mello's father grabbed her shoulder. "Looks like I have put a lot of burden on you. No worries, you can have your say in your personal matters for now." 

"You don't know what you are missing, come on let's go," Rett's mom said standing up. 

"Bye, bye. It wasn't a pleasure meeting you people," Levi replied waving his hands. 

After that, they entered the mansion and again sat on the long sofa. 

"So, what do you want to do in future?" Mello's mom asked. 

"I want to work with my friends and get rich on my own, well, it's practically impossible though," Mello laughed. 

"You are the leader, right?" Mello's dad said glaring at Levi.

"Yes… sir." 

"If anything happens to my daughter, I will kill you!" he said. 

"Papa, Levi is not like that. He's a good guy and a pervert," Mello defended. 

"Pervert? How can you be friends with a pervert?!" Mello's mom shouted in disbelief. 

"I have experience in dying," Levi announced. "And one more thing, I'm not a pervert, damnit!" 

"Well, we have to return for now," Mello said. 

After some time they made their way back to their place to start adventuring again and erase all evil from the world. 

"Getting rich is my first priority. Evil can be erased anytime."

"With the current amount, we can rest a house," Mello announced. 

"Thank goodness, I don't have to sleep in the grass," Levi let out a sigh of relief.

"Well, it's a house with one room," Mello said. 

"That's not a problem," Daisy replied. 

"Damn it! if one room then it means…" Levi stopped midway. 

"Yeah, it means either you have to sleep outside or in the balcony," Hina said. 

Levi sighed as they made their way to the adventurers' guild.

OBJECTIVE: COLLECT FIVE GOLDEN FRUITS 

"This mission sounds kind of easy," Levi said. 

"The golden fruits are only available in deep forests filled with wild creatures, according to this map we might have to cross a river filled with monsters," Daisy explained. 

"…Who the hell selected this mission?" Levi asked in disbelief. 

Mello walked further away from Levi. 

"Have you lost mind! We will die! If you want to die then go alone don't drag us with you!" Levi shouted. 

"Ahem! The reward for his mission is pretty good, so I thought why don't we become daredevils at least once," Mello replied. 

"This girl has no interest in living," Levi said opening his eyes wide. 

"There's no point in shouted, the faster we finish the faster we can collect our reward," Hina cheered.

HERE WE GO 

"This is the hundredth time; we are in this forest. Why can't we learn from our past mistakes," Levi said in frustration. 

"You are not fit to be an adventurer if you going to whine all the way," Mello replied who was walking before him. 

"After crossing the forest, there's a lake too which we have to cross," Daisy explained looking at the map. 

"How are is the lake?" Hina inquired. 

"We should reach there in an hour," Daisy replied. 

"Why don't I use my teleporting magic?" Levi asked for permission. 

"No, we might need that in case the river is filled with monsters," Hina rejected. 

"Hina, can you freeze my face, it's too hot here," Levi asked. 

"You will die," Hina replied. 

"I don't mind," Levi said with a smile. "If you guys care about me, then why the hell do I have to carry this heavy bag even though I'm the leader of this group. You girls are so mean!" 

"As I told you if you are going to-"

"Shut up!" Levi interfered Mello. "Stop sharing your useless wisdom, when you are doing nothing." 

"Both of you fight a lot, don't you?" Daisy said still staring at the map. 

"But nowadays it has increased," Hina supported. 

After walking nearly for an hour they finally reached the river. 

"So, how are we supposed to cross it?" Levi asked. 

"We can always create a boat out of wood," Mello suggested.  

"That would take a lot of time," Daisy said. 

Hina created a small flat surface using ice magic. 

"This should do," Hina said. 

"You are genius," Mello exclaimed. 

"The way through the river will take another hour maybe, by the time we reach there, the ice would melt," Daisy announced. 

"I can restore the ice," Hina replied.  

"We need energy to fight. If you waste all here then we will die in that deserted island," Levi rejected the plan. 

"So, are we going to make a boat?" Mello asked. 

"Let's try that," Daisy agreed.  

"Wait, wait, this isn't fair. Why the hell only I'm working? Ahhhhh!" Levi said in frustration. 

"We are coming, have patience dumbhead," Mello replied. 

The boat was finally ready after few hours of hard work. 

"Let's get going," Levi said placing the bag on the small boat. 

The boat soon started its journey. They were wholly surrounded by gigantic trees. A scary voice could be heard from the forest as it was getting dark and the waters got rough. 

"Are you guys sure there are no monsters?" Levi asked stammering. 

"Who said that? They are even more active during the night," Mello replied.    

NARRATOR: Another adventure? This is sure going to be fun.
