Chapter Two: Courage

Bell opened his eyes to see the world around him. He looked up to see the dimly lit crystals of the first floor. He turned his groggy eyes to the side to see that a group of monsters were looking at him fearfully. He finally widened his eyes as he stood up faster than he thought possible. Bell looked all around to see the monsters were all around him with weapons drawn, but for some reason they all looked fearfully at Bell.

The boy looked all around when he suddenly saw several statues of ice all around. He looked back over to the surrounding groups to see them all take several steps back.

Intrigued as to why, Bell looked down to see the floor was painted white with snow, and had specks of icy blue on it. Bell looked to see the groups stepping back as the ice began to proceed towards them all.

Bell was in awe at what was happening all around him. Then something clicked in Bell's head. Bell drew his dagger as the ice all around turned from a soft baby blue to a eye blinding white. Bell glanced at his dagger to see it glowing a ghostly dark blue, as smoke flowed off of it. Bell locked eyes with the surrounding goblins as they started to toss rocks on the ice.

Seeing the rocks not freezing a goblin took a cautious step on the ice. When others saw the goblins standing tall and not frozen they also began to step onto the snow. The twenty goblins (ten on each side) began to shamble with angered eyes as they wanted to get revenge for their fallen comrades.

Bell focused his gaze on the group in front of him as he focused on what to do. Surprisingly to Bell, all of the goblins were moving so slow, as if they were molasses in the dead of winter. Bell gripped his dagger hard as he sprinted towards the group in front of him. The goblins raised their arms as the white and tan blur known as Bell flew by them. The ice coating Bell's dagger leaving its mark as red ice appeared where the cuts were. Though they prevented bleeding, they did something much worse. The red and blue ice began to go viral as it started to spread its phantom like grasp all over the goblins.

The ten humanoids let out blood curdling squeals like pigs about to be slaughtered. Moments later the ten humanoids were frozen like the others. The thirty goblins seeing this quickly fled in fear at seeing the strength of the adventurer before them. Little did Bell know that his once white hair had been glowing the same eerie blue as his dagger.

Bell took a deep breathe as the ice in the groin vault like area began to recede slowly. His once glowing hair faded back to snow white and his dagger settled on returning to its lusterless silver.

Bell calmed his breathing before walking over to the ice sculptures that looked absolutely beautiful in Bell's eyes. However when he touched the statues of the goblins, they turned to a pile of snow with a small white tinted soul crystal nestled in the white powdery blanket. Bell went around, and collected about fifteen total before he tried to find his way out.

Bell eventually found his way out after around half an hour. When he went out of the tunnel he noticed it was about sunrise, and he was starving. Bell walked around as he started to notice more eyes on him surprisingly. He looked around as inconspicuously as he could, and saw many pairs of eyes linger on his form. He was brought out of his wonderment when he saw a short young looking girl with large breasts and black hair holding a piece of paper up of him. Bell sighed as he walked towards her.

Hestia had her back turned towards Bell as she asked several adventurers if they had seen her Bell-kun. Bell sighed once more as he put a hand on Hestia's shoulder. The goddess immediately froze and turned slowly as she thought the person who had a hand on her shoulder was not very friendly. Once fully turned Hestia had a blank stare on her face for several seconds as several loading dots began to go over her head as she processed what she was looking at. In a split second Hestia was on top of Bell's shoulders and was gnawing on his head as her teeth mystically turned animeishly sharp.

"AH! Kami-sama please stop!" shouted the white haired adventurer as he began to run around flailing his arms wildly.

Instantly Hestia dropped from Bell's shoulders, grabbed his hand, and flew back to the church in a few seconds. The only thing left in the path was clouds of dust and people with sweatdrop like looks as they shrugged, released a sigh and then went on about their day.

As soon as Bell and Hestia were both inside of the church they stopped. Hestia took a quick breath before smacking Bell while shouting "BAKA!" and then jumping on him shoving his head into her very generous bosom, and wrapping her legs around his waist. Her arms went around his head locking him into her chest, yet he could still breathe somehow.

They stayed like this which gave Bell plenty of time to engrain how soft, and pliable his goddess's breasts were, yet also enough time for her to start rubbing her head on top of his as if her face were a hand, and Bell's hair was a magic genie lamp.

"I missed you soooooooo, much Bell-kun!" shouted Hestia as she rubbed his head harder with her cheek.

"Kami-sama, can you please get off?" asked Bell lightly as he resisted the slight urge to hug her back. Immediately Hestia was off of him, and staring at him with a light glare.

"What's wrong Kami-sama?" asked Bell hesitantly.

"Where were you Bell-kun!" shouted Hestia as she began to lightly, yet rapidly swing her arms hitting Bell in the chest.

Immediately Bell began to sweat as his eyes drifted to the side.

"Well…." began Bell lowly as he slowly stepped backwards.

"Don't tell me you went, and used magic last night Bell-kun!" shouted Hestia as her eyes narrowed in uncharacteristic anger.

"H-heh, um, bye!" shouted Bell as he turned to run out, but instantly Hestia's hand went forward, and gripped the back of his shirt with an iron like grip.

"Bell-kun, you did listen to me right?" asked Hestia with an all too sweet tone of voice that was accompanied by a bitter sweet smile.

"Uh-uh, OW!" shouted Bell as Hestia started biting his head once more.

Bell finally managed to get Hestia off his head before dashing out of the ruined church as fast as possible. Bell continued running forward without looking back as he charged through the market.

Suddenly Bell ran into something as he heard an "Eep!" followed by an "AH!" as he fell face first into something soft.

Bell tried to push himself off as he placed his hands on something soft. WHen he did he heard "Ahn! Hn!" which instinctively made him go full blown tomato, and he stood up straight without the use of his hands.

"I'm sorry!" shouted Bell as he bowed expecting a slap or something, only to not receive such a thing.

"It-it's all right. Yo-you're going to the dungeon right?" asked the silver haired girl who had an apron on.

"Ye-yeah, why Mrs.-?" asked Bell as he let the sentence trail off.

"Oh, my name's Syr, and here Mr.-!" shouted the girl known as Syr as she thrusted a box towards him.

"Umm, I can't accept this and Bell ." spoke Bell while taking a step back.

"Please, for repayment just come visit the Benevolent Mistress tonight, you know, to return the bento." spoke Syr though whispering the last part while twirling a stray strand of hair.

"O-ok!" shouted Bell with a nod as he accepted the bento and started off to the dungeon this time around.

Bell walked by fast as he looked around. He noticed several adventurers walking by with heavy laden faces as they trudged towards the dungeon at a very lumbered and encumbered pace. Bell shook his head as he walked briskly into the dungeon by himself.

Time Skip

Bell came out exhausted and covered in not only soot, but also in blood. The blood was from both his enemies and himself as could be shown by the mix of purple, green, and red that stained his face.

Bell looked around before seeing the sun getting ready to start its descent behind the nearby mountains, so he ran as quick as he could to the exchange shop. When he got there he put his thirty small crystals in.

"15,000 Valis." spoke the man behind the counter as Bell smiled before turning on his heel, and heading to the Benevolent Mistress.

Bell approached the medieval looking inn as he took a breath. He then steeled his nerves as he pulled the bento out of his knapsack before entering. Bell opened the heavy double doors and looked around before seeing Syr.

"AHH! Bell-kun come over here!" shouted Syr as she patted a seat near the bar before walking off with a tray of drinks.

Bell went to the indicated seat and sat down before opening the menu. He looked through it already beginning to sweat from the prices. 'Ok the fish and chips is 450 valis, the macaroni dinner is 400 valis, and the burger dinner is 500 valis. I need to go cheap so the mac dinner sounds like a plan.' thought Bell while sweating profusely before looking up just as a plate was slammed down in his face. Bell's mouth was wide open as three more plates made themselves known.

"Eat up, you need to put some meat on them bones. You an adventurer ain't ya!" shouted a very masculine looking women with a large smile.

'Rock fish platter is 1400 valis, angus steak dinner is 1500, lobster tail feast is 1800 valis, and minotaur tri tip is 2400 valis.' thought Bell with an appalled look on his face.

"I-i-i can't afford any of this." spoke Bell meekly as he looked at the woman with a weak look.

"Ah, you can work off what you can't pay by doing dishes, the names Mia, butcha can call me Mama." spoke the woman with a large smile just as a loud group walked in led by a flat chested red haired woman. The group consisted of the Loki familia's main adventurers: Riveria, Tione, Tiona, Bete, and Aiz. The group quickly walked to a large round table before ordering various assortments of drinks and meals.

"Hey Aiz, what did you think of that tomato boy yesterday?" asked Bete as Bell clenched his fist tightly.

'Stand up for yourself~' whispered a voice as a cold wind blew through the open windows.

Aiz didn't respond as she sipped her drink slightly.

"AIZ! Hey, I'm talking to you. WHat do you think of that coward who probably doesn't even know how to fight?" asked Bete once more standing up.

'Stand up and show them who you really are~' spoke the voice once more in Bell's ear as the cold wind became bone chilling.

"Bete, stop it was our fault he-" started Riveria before the wind blew all the candles out making the inn become very dark.

"Your name is Bete, right?" asked Bell eerily calmly from his seat.

"Who are you!" shouted Bete before all the candles magically relit to show three adventurers standing: Bete, Riveria, and Bell. Bell squinted his eyes before laughing "AHH it's you tomato boy!"

"My name is Bell Cranel, mutt." snarled out Bell not even knowing where he suddenly got the courage to back talk a first class adventurer.

The name Bell used to call out Bete made a tension grow as everything became eerily quiet.

"What...did...you...call...me?" asked Bete with clenched teeth.

"You want to talk smack about me just because of your stupid mistake, so who's fault is it that I got in a pinch?" asked an angry Bell as he took a step forward.

"Woah calm down hotshot." spoke Tione as she held Bell back while Tiona and Riveria held Bete back.

"Bell, I suggest you leave before this gets personal." spoke Loki with folded hands and eyes closed tight.

"No, I'm not someone who let's any random stranger spit on my name." spoke Bell as he felt a ghostly hand on his shoulder. Bell turned an eye to see a silhouette of a smiling black haired pale woman with a scythe in hand.

'Show him why you were chosen.' whispered the voice into Bell's ear as he turned to stare down Bete once more.

"I would watch your mouth, boy." spoke Tiona as Aiz observed Bell silently yet carefully.

"If your mutt won't stop running his snout then why should I stop?" asked Bell as he leveled an intense glare towards the woman.

"I apologize for Bete's comment." spoke Loki as she resumed drinking.

"Thank you Loki-sama." spoke Bell as he turned to get back to his food.

"Yeah that's right run away you tomato!" shouted Bete making Bell stop mid stride.

"You want to go dog breath." spoke Bell as the air was tense enough to slice with a butter knife.

"Wait, if you two are going to fight take it outside.!" shouted Mia with crossed arms as she kept a calm face present.

"Let's go tomato." spoke Bete as he got up, and walked outside with a sword drawn.

Bell followed outside with his dagger reverse gripped. The two stared each other down as Bell leveled his breathing.

'Your chanting magic is not to be used.' spoke the voice as she appeared near Bell again.

"Let's go...weakling." spoke Bete as Bell stood in a readied stance "What not going to attack? Are you scared?" shouted Bete trying to get a rise out of Bell.

"The louder the dog barks, the less the bite hurts." spoke Bell in a whisper like tone than seemed to carry as Bete instantly tensed up.

"What was that tomato!" shouted Bete as he charged Bell with his sword in an overhead swing.

Bell quickly rolled forward dodging the strike before turning to slash Bete. However just as Bell was about to give a cut he was launched back by Bete who kicked Bell. Bell landed back a few yards away gasping as the kick hurt quite a bit. Bell took a deep breath before leveling a glare at Bete.

Suddenly Bell charged as Bete got in a defensive stance. Bete suddenly began an overhead swing once more as Bell smirked. Bell moved to the side by a small amount just as the blade brushed past his clothes. Bete raised a foot to kick Bell, but Bell dropped under the kick, and slammed his shoulder into Bete's upper thigh, bringing the wolf like man to the ground.

Bete not expecting the hit let go of his sword dropping it as the two adventurers were now on the floor. Bell quickly recovered and began to slug Bete wildly with his right fist and slash Bete's chest lightly as to not kill the man. Bell got four solid punches and two deep gashes in before Bete recovered and shoved the white haired boy off of him. Bete stood up with a howl as he let loose an angry sound before growling.

The moon was out and shined down on Bete who smirked with a feral like grin. Suddenly his hair grew longer all over as he began to become far more beast like.

"You will regret ever living." spoke Bete in a deep wild like tone as he let loose a loud howl before charging once more at a substantially faster speed.

Bell could barely keep up as Bete wolf like claws dug into his body leaving gashes as he began to dash around Bell. Bell was soaked in crimson and huffing deeply as the clouds once more covered the moon. Bete then turned from his beast like state back to his previous state. The onlookers then started to laugh at Bell as he was still trying to fight.

'Please, I just want to be strong.' thought Bell in his mind as the winds around him began to pick up and cool down.

Everyone looked around as the wind began to become visible with the ferocious wisps and hisses that could be heard. Bell looked up to show his once blood red eyes were now colored white like his hair with a band of black in the center.

"I will not lose." whispered Bell quietly before disappearing and reappearing behind Bete with his dagger out stretched.

Bete suddenly coughed violently as a large slash appeared on his chest. The wound was not deep nor was it shallow as blood slowly seeped out. Bete growled however as he turned to look at a still unmoving Bell. Bete charged Bell from behind as he prepared to strike Bell down with a lethal blow. However just before Bete would have hit Bell, Bell moved. Bell was now at another corner of the road area in front of the double doors. Bete growled once more as another shallower gash appeared. Bete turned, and was about to strike Bell down before Loki stepped in.

"Alright you two enough is enough. I want to get back to my drinking!" shouted Loki with a happy smirk as Bell nodded before walking back inside the Benevolent mistress to finish eating.

Loki looked at Bete with a death glare as she had seen where he was going to hit. She knew most definitely that Bete would have struck Bell's neck… just as Bell would have driven his dagger through Bete's abdomen causing both to die. Riveria appeared next to Bete moments later to heal him as the blood was still leaking, though rather slowly.

"You stupid man, you couldn't just apologize, now you did not only disgrace yourself, but also the Loki Familia." spoke Riveria sternly as she finished healing Bete and walked back in to finish her mean.

15 Minutes Later

"You will help wash dishes for a week from 6-8 p.m." spoke Mia as she looked at Bell with a calm face.

"Thank you Mia-san." spoke Bell while on his hands and knees.

"Good, now go along you can start tomorrow. You earned it after teaching that man a lesson." spoke Mia as Bell nodded and turned before running back with a bag in each hand filled with leftovers.

Chapter 3: New Element

Bell was just walking around. The week he had to work at the Benevolent mistress went relatively smoothly aside from the occasional blush from several of the waitresses when Bell removed his armor and was left in his tight tunic.

Bell however was bored right now due to going into the dungeon and finally hitting the fifth floor. While he was excited it had began to get a tad challenging and monotonous. So in order to edge of his boredom he walked in the Benevolent Mistress.

"Good morning!" shouted Bell across the semi empty tavern.

"Hello Bell!" shouted Syr as she took the bento he brought to her as she had been making a lunch for him daily.

"Say Syr, would you happen to have anything I could read. I've been trying to learn a little but I've never had a chance to read anything.

"Actually we recently found this book around." spoke Syr as she showed a red colored book "We looked at the cover inside and it didn't have a name. So you can read it, and if the owner comes back you can just give it back to the person." spoke Syr as Bell looked at her with awe.

"Thank you Syr, I'll bring it back as soon as I'm done or if the owner comes to you." shouted Bell with excitement as he had stars in his eyes. Syr blushed before averting her eyes and beginning to fiddle with her fingers. As she returned her gaze to where Bell last was to ask him something she saw he was gone. She let loose a sigh before steeling herself to ask him when she saw him next.

Meanwhile Bell was gleefully walking back into the abandoned church. Hestia wasn't home yet as she was working at the shop a little later than usual to make some extra money. Bell didn't mind though as he opened the book and turned to where page one would be. As soon as he turned to it he saw the page without a word on it. He kept flipping through page after page with each one empty. Then he came upon a random page in the middle and immediately fell unconscious.

He felt himself drifting through his dreams as various pictures flashed through his mind. Some from his childhood, others from more recent times in his life. Then he came upon a picture from his childhood and everything stopped.

Bell found himself in a burning house. He looked around trying to find his father. He shouted but no words came to life as he began to cry. He continued to try to shout but it was all in vain as the world around him continued to burn. He tried running but his body wouldn't move, couldn't move. His body suddenly fell to the ground. Bell found himself coughing as he tried to move but his body was unable to function. After several minutes his body began to slowly move as he crawled through the still burning house. He could hear the shouts of men and women outside as he opened his mouth to scream. Once more nothing came out. He gave up trying to shout as he continued crawling. As he crawled embers began to sink down lower to the ground as the roof lit the floor above Bell aflame. Bell looked up to see part of the floor fall around him. He heard the fire begin to crackle with a hiss as it fell on his leg singing it slightly as Bell kicked it off surprisingly fast.

Bell began to panic as the roof above him began to fall. Just as a piece would have landed on him a fist impacted it and turned it into splinters. Bell winced as a piece embedded itself in his shoulder but felt relieved when the man lifted him from the burning floor. The man looked Bell in the eyes to show his face to be his grandfather. Bell was about to speak before he felt himself thrown out the window just as the house collapsed behind him. His grandfather was wearing a loving smile as Bell flew through the air. Bell woke suddenly with his face stained by dry tears.

"If only I could have saved him." whispered Bell lightly as he clenched his fist in front of the still lit fire of his fireplace. Bell suddenly jumped back in surprise as the flames turned a blue before flickering back to an orangish red. Bell was surprised as he stepped forward to feel the heat of the flames. As soon as his hand became close the flame turned blue, and its once debilitating heat that caused Bell to be uncomfortable turned to a welcoming cold as his hand was encased in the blue flame.

Bell's eyes widened when the flame suddenly went out causing the room to be blanketed by darkness. Bell blinked a moment before he started to stumble around in hopes of finding the switch to turn the lights on. A moment later Bell tripped over a piece of furniture as he kissed the ground. Just then the lights came on as Hestia let loose a sigh before blinking at seeing Bell on the floor.

"Bell-kun! If you want to kiss anything then it should be me!" shouted Hestia as she opened her arms wide before launching herself at Bell. Bell finally stood just as her arms wrapped around him and he fell to the ground once more as Hestia was about to kiss him.

"Kami-sama!" shouted Bell as he blushed and tried to pry her off him. After a few minutes Bell finally managed to escape his 'torture'.

"So why were you lying on the ground?" asked Hestia as she now gave Bell some space.

"I was reading this book, and I suddenly felt tired." spoke Bell as he himself looked confused.

"You mean this one?" asked Hestia as Bell nodded. Hestia began looking through the book before sighing.

"You read a grimoire, a one time use book." spoke Hestia as she laid the book down.

"I-i-i." began Bell before freezing up completely.

"Just be quiet and don't say a word about it. Besides then know one will come after us. The owner must have surely expected such a case to happen anyways." spoke Hestia with a giggle 'Now Bell will have to do my bidding. We will snuggle for eternity HAHAHAHAHA!' thought Hestia in her mind with a diabolical smile.

"Ar-are you sure Kami-sama."

"Yes, yes I am Bell-kun, but you need to do something for me or I might tell someone about you reading the book." spoke Hestia with a wide grin as she sounded oddly happy with the turn of events.

"Ye-yes Kami-sama. Anything you want Kami-" spoke Bell until the door swung open.

"Bell-kun!" shouted Syr loudly.

"Yes Syr-san?"

"That book it was a grimoire have you opened it?" shouted Syr with a scared look on her face.

"I-I-I did." spoke Bell with his face down.

"So this is the one you gave the book to?" spoke a woman with violet eyes garbed in a dark tan robe.

"I'm sorry, what can I do to make it up to you." shouted Bell while bowing lowly.

'That bitch took away my chance to seduce Bell, no matter I'll just snuggle with him anyway feigning having a nightmare, yes yes that's what I'll do.' thought Hestia as she leveled a heated glare at the woman.

'He's very interesting. He doesn't look strong, but by the signature of three magics he has to be hiding something. Hmm, Bell-san, I'll be keeping an eye on you.'

"-anything at all maam."

"I should have expected this after leaving the book there, so I'll let you off easy by having you show me what the grimoire gave you for powers." spoke the woman as Bell nodded, he looked to Hestia who let a sigh escape. The two went through the process as Hestia eyed the paper closely.

"He has gained fire magic." spoke Hestia as the woman nodded before bidding them farewell.

"Hey Syr-san?"

"Yes Bell-kun?"

"How did you know this was my home. I never gave you my address…." spoke Bell as he looked at her a with a .

"Uhhhhh, oh would you look at the time hahaha, BYE BELL-KUN!" shouted Syr as she dashed out of the church.

"Bell-kun…" spoke Hestia with a deep and evil tone as her eyes glowed red.

"Yes, Kami-samaahhhhh!" Began Bell before he broke out screaming as Hestia once more began to gnaw on his head.
