Simple BellxAis thing I've been wanting to do for a little bit. I've written other stuff before on separate accounts that was well received, but I've decided to stick with this account. Make sure to leave a review telling me what you thought! Criticism is appreciated. Have a nice day!
Orario.
The city above the dungeon.
A place where legends are born.
People of all kinds, whether it be dwarves, elves, or humans, flocked to this prosperous land for many different reasons.
For a young adventurer, his reason for coming to Orario was because of the word of his grandfather:
"You can be a hero."
The only thing that Bell Cranel desired in life was to become a hero, just like the ones from the stories his grandfather would read him at night. Orario, the place where names such as the King or the Kenki arose from, was the greatest place to achieve his goal. There, he would become a hero without equal.
And he knew that the first step in order to achieve his goal was to get into a good Familia. He had done his research, and determined that the two best choices were either Loki or Freya. After much deliberation, he decided that he would rather be a member of the Loki Familia. He knew deep down that there wasn't a chance that they would accept some weakling like him into their ranks. He simply wasn't good enough to be in the best Familia in Orario.
But the risk was worth it. They were the best of the best.
And there he was, at the Loki Familia's castle, waiting behind the front gate. He had been standing there for a few minutes, not sure how to get someone's attention. Suddenly, he was noticed, and a pair of adventures came out to greet him. They were two Amazons, and they looked very similar.
They had beautiful bronze skin and slender waists. They weren't afraid to show some skin; their clothes were very traditionally Amazonian. The pair arrived at the gate.
"Hey little guy, did you get lost on your way home?" one of them teased. She had short hair and a cute smile. Bell felt a blush start to creep on his face. The other girl hit her on the head, and glared at her. The girl scratched the back of her head with a sheepish grin.
"Why have you come to visit us?" the other girl asked. She had long, pretty hair, and an ample sized chest.
"W-well, I was wondering if I could join your Familia," Bell said, fidgeting. The two girls bent down, and stared at him. Their faces were mere inches away, however the huge metal gate still separated them. Bell took a step back, and looked at them confusedly.
"He looks like a cute little bunny!" chortled the girl with the short hair. They opened the gate.
"Follow us! I'm Tiona, and this is my sister, Tione. We're two of the four Level 5 adventurers of this Familia!" Tiona said. Bell felt a bead of sweat roll down his face. He was in the presence of two Loki Familia executives!
They lead him into the majestic castle, and took him through many different hallways. Eventually, they arrived at their destination. They were standing in front of a large wooden door adorned with a golden frame. Tiona leapt into the air gracefully, did a flip, and brought her heel down on the door. It flew open with a bang, and she strolled in nonchalantly. Bell winced, but Tione just sighed in exasperation. She walked into Loki's room, and Bell came in hesitantly after her.
"Hey Loki, we found a bunny!" Tiona said.
"Huh?" Loki asked, looking up from whatever she was doing.
"What the idiot meant to say is that we found an aspiring adventurer that would like to join our Familia," Tione explained.
"Uh… yeah. I'm Bell Cranel, and I would like to become a member of the Loki Familia… please," Bell said awkwardly, bowing slightly.
"Yeah, whatever, now leave me alone!" Loki snapped. Bell looked at the two Amazons, worried. He didn't want to anger his future god in their first meeting.
"He needs a falna, Loki," Tione said.
"What? Oh, yeah. Take your shirt off and come over here," Loki said. Bell complied, and sat down in front of her. The two Amazons waited patiently.
Loki pricked her finger with a needle, and soon enough, she was done.
"Congratulations, you're now a part of the Loki Familia," Loki mumbled monotonously,
"Now leave and don't bother me again for the rest of the night!"
Bell leapt out of the seat in shock.
"Sorry for interrupting you!" Bell yelled, giving a quick bow.
He bolted out of the room, and the two Amazons followed. Tione shut the doors a lot more reasonably than they had been opened. She turned to Bell, who was breathing heavily with a pale face.
"Sorry about that. Loki must've been doing something really important when Tiona kicked the door open," Tione said, glaring at Tiona.
"Sorry, sorry," Tiona grinned, waving her hand in the air.
"Anyway, we'll show you to your room. Breakfast will be at 9, but Tiona and I are going to go to the dungeon," Tione said. They lead him through more intricate hallways, until they arrived at another door.
"This is your room," Tione said. Without warning, and with lightning fast precision, she poked Bell's arm with a needle. Blood welled up from the stab. Bell winced a little, but pretended it didn't hurt to try and impress the two upper class adventurers.
"Put your blood right where that black circle is. That will mark the room as yours. No one will be able to open the door except you. It's a cool enchantment that one of the executives, Riveria, came up with. If you have any questions, just go and find another member," Tione said.
The pair ran off down the hallway.
"Bye, bunny!" Tiona said, waving. Bell waved back, and turned to his new room. He tapped at the blood on his arm.
Bell touched his finger to the door, and a strange clown-like emblem spread across the door. Inside the emblem was his name. He opened the door, and cautiously peered inside.
The room was small and cozy. In the top left corner there was a single bed with a red silk blanket. One pillow adorned the top of the bed. On the back side of the room there was a window, with a desk in front of it. Sunlight pooled in from the open window, illuminating his room. He ran into the room, leapt on his new bed, and laid on his back. He heaved a huge sigh, and looked at the ceiling with a wide grin.
'This is it' Bell thought to himself, 'I've started my own adventure!'
