Chapter 44. The Argonaut and the Heavenly Dragon.
Bell jumped to the side and dodged the massive sword that came down towards him in attempt to cut him In half, he rolled on the ground and then used his feet to push himself off and jump back towards the red Minotaur that just tried to kill him, the monster however reacted fast and blocked with his horn a slice from Bell aiming to slice his neck open.
Bell frowned and landed on the floor, he immediately jumped back to gain some distance, behind him were two dead red Minotaurs bleeding on the floor but right now he didn't have the time to even acknowledge their corpses * these red Minotaurs are learning... they're watching me very closely how I move and fight, this is only going to get more difficult as time goes on...*.
Bell looked around and watched as the other red Minotaurs didn't jumped on him Erich at first had him on high alert, they have been doing this from the get go, they would send one of them to fight him and the rest would watch, so far he has killed two but with this third one he's starting to struggle and now he knows why.
These monsters were learning, they were analyzing how he fights and soon enough they will eventually all attack him together, which means that he's going to get overwhelmed at some point but he had faith in Lili.
He knew she would comeback soon enough, he just needed to buy as much time as possible and hope that Lili gets here fast, so with a roar he launched himself towards the red Minotaur who roared back at him and got ready to fight.
I glared at Ottar who just stood there, glaring back at me, I honestly didn't want to deal with him right now, all I care right now is the fact that Bell needed help but it seem like the Level 7 Boaz didn't have any intention to get out of my way, instead he grabbed hold of the handle of his sword and drew it. he then pointed towards me.
This made the Loki Familia members tense up and get nervous, they obviously didn't want to fight this guy well except Ais who was already getting ready to launch herself to him and stop him in case he attacked them.
I on the other had just pointed Excalibur at him and narrowed my eyes "... so you chose death? you would sacrifice your life for a woman who's foolish enought to provoke me after what I already did to her?".
Ottar growled "people like you wouldn't understand the love my lady offers, you don't understand... I will do what I must to make her wishes true even if it costs me my life!...".
I huffed and shook my head, I can understand wanting to do everything for your loved ones but this is just stupid, my girls would never ask me to do something like this nor would they expect me to die for them, this love Ottar is speaking about its a ssick nd obsessive one "... I really didn't want to have to deal with you and your Goddess but it seems that I'm going to have to end her along with the rest of you obsessive fools".
Ottar definitely didn't like my comment because he launched himself towards me with his sword intent on cutting me down but I easily stopped his attack with Excalibur which caused a shockwave to explode out of our blade's clash.
His eyes widen in surprise at the ease in which I stopped his attack but then I parried his sword away from me and then spin kicked him against a wall of the Dungeon.
Ottar grunted in pain as he crashed into the wall and tried to push himself from the wall but I used Psychic to push him back and hold him against the wall.
I then turned my head towards the girls "go! help Bell! I'll handle this brute!".
All of them flinched and then snapped out of their shock from the fact that I just manhandled the only Level 7 Adventurer in Orario so easily but Ais immediately nodded and took off running as fast as she could to go help Bell.
Soon after Tione 'who was still carrying Lili under her arm', Tiona and Lefiya took off running after Ais wanting to go help their friend, a few seconds later Riveria, Bete and Finn also ran after them.
Ottar growled as he watch the Loki Familia run towards where Bell is fighting the Red Minotaurs, he then move his gaze towards me and I just rose an eyebrow at him as I let him go.
He stood up and glared at me but he then turned around and began to walk away from me as if nothing had happened but I definitely wasn't planning on letting him go, not after he risked Bell's life just because of his GGoddess's ishes, so I took a big breath and then unleashed a blueish purple colored Flamethrower at him.
Ottar felt the heat coming his way, he immediately turned around and blocked the stream of blue flames with his massive sword but the force of my attack pushed him back while he roared and tried to stop himself.
But he wasn't able to even slow himself down and ended up crashing against a wall down the hall he was pushed back into, I let up my attack and disappeared in a flash of purple light, I didn't want to waste a lot of time with this idiot so I was going to kill him fast.
Ottar let go of his red hot blade and watched as it began to melt on the floor from the heat of my Stardust powered Flamethrower, I had to hold back so I wouldn't accidentally melt the entire Dungeon floor but my attack had enough power to melt his sword and burn his hands.
I reappeared in front to him and Power Up punched him in the throat, he gasped and grabbed his throat in pain but at this point I had decided not to give him any chance to breathe, I knew he had quite the powerful recovery skills so I knew I couldn't let up.
So I jabbed the hilt of Excalibur on his liver causing his head to lurch forward, where I received with a Fire Punch to the face making his head whipe to the side, I sent Excalibur back to my soul and grabbed Ottar by the nape of his neck with my claws.
I then grabbed hold of his belt and easily lifted him of the ground, as I held him in the air I then unleashed a purple Thunderbolt attack. the Level 7 Adventurer screamed in pain as I fried him.
I held my electric attack for a few seconds and then slammed Ottar against the floor making him grunt in pain, I jumped back a bit since he immediately tried to hit me away with his arm.
I watch him shakely get up and glared at me, I just shook my head, he's a tough guy but I'm not even trying, in the Dungeon is very dangerous to go all out so me and the girls tried not to use high powered spells or techniques.
If we accidentally destroy to much of the Dungeon not only will it collapse on top of us but Orario which sit right on top of us would be destroy in the Dungeon caves in so even through I was very angry I couldn't really let that anger get out of control here, I'm a Heavenly Dragon and unleashed my energy is enough to cause Devastation.
Ottar sighed and then got on position to fight me but I was done. I don't have the time nor the patience to deal with him anymore.
So I reappeared right in front of him and grabbed him by the throat, with his throat in my grip I choke slammed and held him against the floor, where he let out a grunt of pain "did you really think you could just walk away after you got in my way? I know it was Freya who ordered you to train those Minotaurs".
Ottar's eyes widen at the fact that I knew that Freya had order him to train the herd of red Minotaurs but he then glare at me and punched me on the abdomen but my manifested dragon scales easily absorbed his blows but the Boaz didn't let up until I tighten my grip around his neck which forced him to stop trying to punch me away and instead try to force my hand away from his neck.
But I just growled and then aggressively pull my hand away from his neck ripping it open, Ottar's eyes widen in shock and he looked up to me but I just stood up and glared down at him as I watched him bleed out from his neck.
Suddenly the urgency of his situation seemed to finally hit him and he tried to hold his neck with his hands in order to stop the bleeding but we both knew it was pointless "I warned your Goddess to leave Bell alone and I'm usually not this brutal unless I'm provoked but I can't afford to play around with you or your Familia, all of you are powerful and dangerous, not to me of course but to the friends I made here in Orario... don't worry though, soon I'll send the rest of your Familia to join you in the after life".
With that said I turned around and disappeared in a flash of purple light to catch up with everyone, they might be powerful but a whole herd of enhance red Minotaurs is dangerous to all adventurers no matter what their levels are, especially Bell who's only a Level 2.
I need to go make sure everyone is alright and deal with the herd if things get out of hand, honestly I don't know what Freya was thinking sending Ottar to do this but she won't get away with this, I guess is time for the people of Orario to once again witness what happens when someone messes with my friends.
Ottar stopped trying to stop the bleeding and just layed there on the cold floor of the Dungeon, he looked towards the ceiling with a blank expression on his face as he slowly began to die, getting your throat ripped out was a odd experience was the though currently groing through his mind.
He knew he was dying and that nothing he could do would stop that so he just accepted his fate, he always knew that he might someday die but his only regret was that he wasn't going to die in a great battle.
So as he layed there as he slowly began to close his eyes and thought for one last time about his Goddess *I'm sorry lady Freya... I failed you but I hope everyone else can protect you from the monster we just provoked...*.
Those were the last thoughts of the only in Orario before darkness flooded his vision and then he knew no more.
Freya who was lying on her bed in pain suddenly tensed up and sat up, her eyes were wide in distress and horror as she felt the connection to Ottar's Falna disappear, she just sat there not really comprehending what's going on until realization hit her.
He eyes filled with tears as she finally understood that Ottar had died, that he wasn't coming back from the errand she sent him to, something that she never though possible has happened and all she could is mourne the passing of her loyal Ottar
She shakely stood up and walked up to her throne and sat on it while wincing from the curse afflicting her body, she then used he Crystal Ball and search for Ottar only to gasp as she found him on the floor with his throat ripped out and still bleeding out.
She stared at his strongest and beloved Ottar for a long while not really wanting to accept what had happened, suddenly she remembered that she was also supposed to watch over Bell so she numbly began to look for his location.
But right now at this moment, not only was Freya feeling physical pain but her heart was hurting like never before, she was numb to everything right now and could only focus on Bell, otherwise she might breakdown.
Bell had killed three more red Minotaurs but he was already pretty hurt and getting tired, every enhanced monster he takes down makes way to another one who only got harder and harder to fight but he was still managing plus he still had a few Apple and Orange Gels.
But if this keeps going things will start to get difficult but as he dodged a sword strike from the red Minotaur he's currently fighting by side stepping and then jumping onto the spine of the massive blade, he then ran up its length and towards the red Minotaur's shoulder until he reached it and delivered a harsh kick the side of the monsters face.
The red Minotaur's head Whipped to the side and actually snapped its neck from the force of Bell's kick killing it, the rest of the red Minotaurs howled and began to stomp the ground as Bell landed on the ground feet first.
He immediately got ready for the next red Minotaur to attack but suddenly Ais appeared out of nowhere and launched herself towards the red Minotaur that was stepping forward to face Bell.
The monster was so caught off guard that it couldn't even try to move his head away from the sword thrust that Ais hit it with killing it instantly, Ais immediately pulled her sword out and swung it hard unleashing a Air Cutter towards the a group of red Minotaurs but all of them stopped it with their massive swords.
However they got pushed back from the force behind the Flying Type Move enchanted on Ais's new sword, Bell sighed in relief and immediately took out an Apple and Orange Gel and ate them.
He then walked up to Ais and stood by her side as both of the stared at the red Minotaurs "watch out, these monsters are smart and very adaptable when fighting, most of them already know how a fight but you can still catch them by surprise miss Ais".
Ais nodded and then turned her gaze towards Bell and saw that even though his armor was significantly damaged he seemed to be fine, still she had to make sure "are you okay bunny?...".
Bell sweatdropped at the nickname but nodded at Ais and awkwardly smiled "y-yes I'm okay, they're strong and fast in short bursts but I've been able to dodge most of their attacks and luckly they been happy with just fighting me one by one though I don't think they'll do that now that you're here".
Ais nodded in understanding but then she gave Bell a small and soft smile "more help is on the way...".
Bell raised an eyebrow but then got the answer to his unasked question when both Tione and Tiona ran forward and past them, the twins attacked two Minotaur's with their new weapons.
Tiona stabbed a Red Minotaur with her Naginata on its throat and then swung her weapon sideways cutting off its head while Tione jumped up and then came down while slicing a Red Minotaur in half with her Scimitar.
The herd of red Minotaurs howled and roared in anger and launched themselves towards Tione and Tiona but then a voice echoed throughout the entire Dungeon chamber "O frigid blades, pour forth! Icicle Rain!".
A big number of ice cold icicles rained down in front of the red Minotaurs killing two of them and stopping the rest from moving forward, Bell turned his head to the side and saw Lefiya pointing her glowing new staff towards the herd of Monsters.
Bell smiled at her and Lefiya returned his smile with one of her own he then saw Lili standing beside her with her eyes close in concentration, he knew Rean had taught her some magic but he didn't know exactly what spells she knew.
Lili pointed her open palm towards Bell, Ais, Tione and Tiona "Enhance this blade's might. Sharpness!".
The four adventurers in front of Lili were suddenly engulfed in an orange light as they felt their strength increase Bell grinned *so Rean taught her Buff spells! she's a true Supporter now!*.
Lili grinned back at Bell and the winked at him as she pointed an open hand towards the red Minotaur's and began to cast another spell "Acid Rain!".
A black rainfall hit the Minotaurs for a few seconds causing them to howl in pain as their Defense Stat was reduced, Lili then suddenly yelled "go! their defense is weakend for a few seconds!".
Bell, Ais, Tione and Tiona grinned and nodded, they immediately launched themselves into battle against the red Minotaurs while Lefiya provided long range support and Lili continued to Buff their stats and debuff the Monster's.
Riveria, Finn and Bete gaped at the sheer level of ability and skill that Bell and the girls were fighting with, Finn narrowed his eyes as he watched the girls use those new weapons of theirs.
He remembered when they came back to their home with them, many asked them about the weapons but they refused to tell anyone where they got them, they didn't even let anyone touched them, Riveria even tried to get Ais or Lefiya to let her inspect their new weapons but they simple refused.
That was surprising to everyone, even more so to Riveria who has never been told no by these two girls, it got to the point that the girls just began to ignore anyone who would continue to pester them about the weapons and that included Loki as well.
Everything became even more crazy with how the weapons performed during their expedition further down the Dungeon but again they refuse to talk about it.
But now this? Tione, Tiona, Lefiya and Ais were not only in perfectly in synch with each other but also with that white haired Adventurer and the Plum girl.
How and where did they learned to work together like that? but it wasn't only that, those four also got stronger, way stronger that they were a few days ago, not only stat wise which was confusing on its own.
But also in skill and ability, watching them fight together with these two Adventurers like they've been fight together all their life qas very confusing to him.
Bete suddenly spoke which brough Finn out of his thoughts "what the fuck!? how did Tomato Boy get this strong!? how!? he was running away screaming from a Minotaur not that long ago!".
Finn couldn't help but agree with Bete about the white haired boy who was now dancing around red Minotaurs in high-speed and attacking them with a precision he had only seen in veteran adventurers.
However Bete suddenly screamed in pain as someone grabbed his ear and aggressively ripped out of his head, his scream alerted Finn ans Riveria who immediately turned around and got ready to attack whatever had attacked Bete.
But both of them froze when they saw that it was them young man who stayed behind to fight Ottar, they watched as he threw Bete's ear to the side and then spoke up "his name is Bell Cranel mongrel... don't ever call him Tomato Boy...".
Bete drop to his knees and held where his ear once was in pain as blood began to drip out from his fingers, Riveria and Finn froze the moment I turned my gaze towards them.
It seems that my dragonic eyes has them scared but right now I didn't care, at this moment I was not in the mood to deal with Bete attitude and didn't even want to hear his voice.
This whole situation just pissed me off, Ottar got in my way and the bastard Montreal. tried walked away from me like I didn't matter and to make things worst he really believed that I was just going to let him walked away.
That's why I ripped out his throat, it might be my dragonic instincts amking be this aggressive or maybe it was just me or perhaps I was far more prouder than I thought I was because that attitude of his just pissed me off.
But the cherry on top was the mongrel mouthing off and insulting Bell for no reason so I decided to punish the asshole, extreme? perhaps but right now I didn't care.
So I began to walk towards both Riveria and Finn which made them tense up and point their weapons at me but I just ignored them and walk past then.
I summoned Excalibur into my hand again and immediately changed her into her Bow mode as I continue to walk forward, I then pulled on her string and shot the legs off any Red Minotaurs who tried to get Tiona, Tione, Bell and Ais from behind.
The Quest said to help them not take care or kill All the red Minotaurs so that's what I will do.
My friends immediately noticed that I was covering them too and grinned at me in thanks, I just nodded at them with a smile and provided long range support while they took care of the Red Minotaurs.
Now that they had me covering their back Bell and the girls could now relax a little and fight with ease, Ais and Bell seemed to be dancing with each other while taking down the Red Minotaurs while both Tione and Tiona mercilessly cut down any monster that got in their way.
Lili and I shot the red Minotaurs on their legs so they rest can finish them off while Lefiya would use ice spells to pin them down and make it difficult for them to move around.
This is what this group, this party has improved the most during their training, their ability to fight together and the tactics they use in battle is something that was learned while they fought the Pokemon.
Fighting Pokemon like Charizard, Sceptile and even Dragonite force them to adapt and get used to fighting beings far more powerful than them, they didn't win of course, not by a long shot but they were forced to adapt, learn and perfect everything the do in battle.
Bell was ahead of everyone in this department, sure the Loki girls were far stronger than him but Bell could fight them off for a time or even take one down by himself and that inspired the girls to try even harder to catch up.
If a Level 2 can fight them off when they had a Level 6 on their party, imagine what they could do if they train like Bell and all of that training is showing right now.
We took down the Red Minotaurs with ease, I didn't even have do much, all I did is make sure they could focus on attacking without having to worry for a surprise attack, they took down all the red Minotaurs by themselves.
And that made Finn and Riveria gaped at what they had accomplished together, I gaze at them and shook my head at the faces they were making but suddenly massive steps began to echo in the Dungeon chamber.
Out of the darkness came out a black Minotaur, a Monster Rex and it walked up to the girls and stared at Bell who didn't back down and stared back at the Black Minotaur "I see... so you sent your entire herd to test us and learned about how we fight huh?".
Learn how we fight? that statement from Bell surprise me a bit but what surprised me the most was the fact that the black Minotaur nodded in response to Bell's question and then pointed his sword at him.
Bell narrowed his eyes at the black Minotaur but nodded, he then gazed at the girls and spoke up "girls, sorry to ask this of you but do you mind if I handle this alone?".
Tione and Tiona smiled and nodded at Bell understanding what he wanted to do while Lefiya reluctantly nodded and said "just don't die! we still have a lot of training to do!".
Bell nodded at Lefiya and smiled at her, he then turned towards Ais who stared into his eyes "are you sure?...".
Bell nodded and Ais stared at him for a long second before nodding back and sheathing her sword "be careful bunny...".
Bell sweatdropped but nodded at Ais who softly smiled and then walked away, Bell turned towards me and stare into my eyes, I couldn't help but to sigh, I know this was a necessary step for Bell's growth but a lot has changed from canon the fact that the Minotaur in front of us is a black one is proof enough and I was a bit anxious about it but that look in Bell's eyes told me that he needed to do this.
It seems like Bell still felt like he needed to prove himself, so I closed my eyes and nodded at him "do finish quickly Bell, I have something to talk to you and the family regarding Freya".
Bell frowned upon hearing me mention Freya but nodded, I then stepped back a bit and then turned around but stop mid step "make sure you survive Bell, I don't want to be the one to tell Hestia that you died".
Bell brightly smiled at me and I walked up towards where the rest of our friends had walk to in order to watch the fight.
This day has been annoying to me and I'm in a bad mood for sure, this whole situation has just being a mess that I will have to deal with later but for now I'll support my captain.
Tione and Tiona immediately hugged my arms and smiled at me, they must have sensed that I was still in a bad mood and were trying to cheer me up which I really appreciate so I gave them a smile.
Ais and Lefiya walked up to us and gaved us smile, Ais then decided to ask about Ottar "and Ottar? where is he?".
I frowned "dead, I ripped his throat out and left his body where we were".
Ais nodded and then turned around to watch as the black Minotaur and Bell got into their battle stances.
A gasp caught my attention and I turned around only to see both Finn and Riveria gaped at me but I rolled my eyes at them, Ottar might be powerful for this world's standards but he's nowhere close to a Heavenly Dragon, Kunou could have easily killed him if she wanted to.
Bell and the black Minotaur stared at each other for a few more seconds as if waiting for something of to start the battle and that sign came when out kf nowhere a small pebble came loose from the ceiling and fell down onto the ground causing a loud sound echo through out the Dungeon chamber when it landed on the floor.
Bell roared while the black Minotaur howled and then both of them rushed forward towards each other, both of them became blurs until they met on the middle of the chamber.
The black Minotaur raised its massive sword and swung it down towards Bell but the bunny looking Adventurer suddenly stopped and stepped to the side and then lashed out a kick that hit the flat end of the black Minotaur's sword causing it to whip to the side.
The monster's eyes widen in surprise but Bell didn't give it any time to think and as soon as he landed on the floor he launched himself forward towards the Minotaur his Pixie Knife glowing purple as he swung it towards the black Minotaur's chest.
But the black Minotaur quickly lowered its head and stopped Bell's strike with one of it horns but Bell grinned and unleashed a Venom Shock from the Pixie Knife that hit the Minotaur point blank.
The black Minotaur let out a howl of pain and surprise as it got pushed back by the Pokemon move enchanted on the Pixie Knife, the monster stopped itself by stabbing its sword into the ground and then howled once more before launching itself towards Bell head first intending to impale Bell with its horns.
Bell however quickly jumped over the black Minotaur's head and landed behind it, he immediately swung both the Pixie Knife and the Hestia Knife towards the monster's back.
The black Minotaur in spite of his massive hulk turned around at a impressive speed and blocked Bell's double Knife strike with its sword, Bell gritted his teeth and watched as sparks flew from his Knives edges clashing against the black Minotaur's sword.
The monster swung his sword hard and sent Bell flying back towards a wall but Bell spinned in mid air and landed feet first against the wall where he pushed himself off as hard as he could towards the black Minotaur who was caught off guard by Bell's maneuver.
Bell stabbed of his knives into the monster's shoulder and with a roar sliced down cutting off the arm, then black Minotaur dropped his sword and let out a horrendous howl full of pain however even in pain the monster still lashed out with his other arm and slapped Bell away.
The captain of the Hestia Familia grunted and rolled on the ground a few times but he suddenly pushed himself into the air with his hands and quickly sheathed the Pixie Knife, he then reached into his pouch and in one swift movement he threw three yellow knives towards the Minotaur.
I couldn't help but to smile as I watched Bell used what Sakuya has been teaching him, I'm sure she would be proud if she was here to watch this fight.
The three knives flew towards the black Minotaur who raised it arms to block them but as soon as the yellow knives stabbed into its arm they unleashed a Thunderbolt attack each.
The monsters roared in pain as the enchanted Pokemon move hit him with a massive amount of electricity, Bell took advantage of the fact that the black Minotaur was howling in pain to prepare for his final attack.
It was at this moment when I heard a most familiar sound, the sound of bells began to echo throughout the entire Dungeon chamber as Bell was then sorrounded by wisps of white light that began to vibrate all around him *thats... Argonaut? he got that skill already? cool!*.
I suddenly got a notification letting me know that Mimicry was able to copy the skill making me grin excitement, with this skill I can charge any of my skill and increase their damage.
Bell while now glowing suddenly dissappeared in a flash of white light as he then appeared in front of the black Minotaur, Bell raised both of his knives up and then sliced down while running the black Minotaur through and appearing behind the monster "Let's finish this!" Bell then dissappeared in a flash of white light again and began to run the black Minotaur through repeatedly"O brilliant blade of coldest steel, rend the infinite darkness, and crush my enemies to nothing!" Bell continued his barrage of attacks from all directions "Savage... Wolf Fury!" Bell appeared in front the black Minotaur and slashed at him one more with the Hestia Knife this time releasing all the energy his skill Argonaut had gathered.
With one last and loud ringing bell, the Hestia Knife unleashed a massive wave of white energy which crashed against the black Minotaur engulfing it in a explosion of white light and finally killing it.
To everyone except me, it must have looked like Bell became a rushing blade of white light that kept slashing the black Minotaur from all directions but this Mystic Art is a simple and easy one to learn.
This is one of reasons I taught it to Bell plus his speed build makes this Mystic Art perfect for him, still he was able to adapt it to his style and even add to it with Argonaut and that was impressive.
I watched with a smile as Bell stood tall and then raised his fist in victory which made Tione,Tiona, Lefiya, Lili and even Ais cheer in celebration.
Then I watched as Bell was suddenly tackled down by Lili who began to fuss over him and check him to make sure he wasn't hurt, I noticed Ais eyebrow twitch a bit which made me chuckled.
Ais walked forward and then patted Bell on his and congratulated him for his victory, I then walked up to them and hugged Bell by the shoulder and grinned at him "well done! and you mastered that Mystic Art, I'm proud of you captain!."
Bell blushed a bit but grinned back at me, both Lili and Ais pouted at me for taking their bunny away but i just chuckled at them and shrugged, then I asked the Loki girls what they were doing in the middle floors.
Turns out that the Loki Familia were already on the Eighteenth floor and had set up camp for the day and that tomorrow they would begin to head down so they decided to hunt some monsters to get rid of their boredom.
I chuckled at their reason to be in the Middle Floors but inwardly I was thankful they were there, we then spent a few minutes talking about how everything was doing and how their new weapons worked perfectly fine for them.
Riveria, Bete who was still holding where his ear used to be and Finn stared in disbelieve at what they had just witnessed, not only had their very own Familia Members gotten stronger without them noticing but the rookie Adventurer who they had almost gotten killed not so long ago had just take down a black Minotaur by himself.
To Bete it was absurd, in his mind it just didn't make sense to him, to him the rookie was a weak nobody but he was smart enough not to say anything right now, losing one ear was enough and the fact that the same guy who just ripped it off had just said he killed Ottar, the only Level 7 Adventurer in Orario made him even more cautious around the guy who no only beat the shit out of him once before but had just ripped his ear off without any hesitation.
He knew better than to provoke this man, meanwhile Riveria and Finn were in shock and couldn't really comprehend what had just happened, nothing like this has ever happened before so they really didn't know how to react.
After speaking with the Loki girls for a while I decided it was time for Bell, Lili and I to go home, they still needed to deliver what the ingredients Miach had asked them to get plus I neded to speak with whole Familia about Freya "alright girls, we need to go home since we still need to take care of some things but I'm sure well see each other soon".
The Loki girls nodded, Ais gave Bell a headpat while Tione and Tiona gave me a hug which caught me a bit by surprise but I accepted it, Lefiya seemed a bit shy so I gave her a headpat which made her blush.
Luckily she seemed to accept it which made Riveria raise an eyebrow at her while the twins grinned at her but she ignored them, I then walked up to both Bell and Lili and place a hand on their shoulders "take care girls!".
And with that I teleported everyone out of the Dungeon and directly home while the girls smiled and waved at us goodbye.
Seeing that we were gone, Finn and Riveria walked up to the girls and began to question them but once again they refuse to say anything and just told them that if they wanted to know about Rean that they could just asked him directly.
Of course they didn't want to do that so they continued to pester them while they began to walked and head down towards the Eighteenth floor.
Everyone ignore the fact that Bete was still bleeding and holding where his ear use to be in pain, in their mind they all thought he had it coming.
