Chapter 7


It is a new day in the city of Orario and now the trio are heading to the Família one last time and as that is happening Bell pokes Lillie's ears and she reacts by blushing.

"Master Bell, please don't poke my ears." She tells him off teasingly.

"Sorry Lillie, I'm still impressed at how realistic they are." Bell says impressed.

"Well I need to hide for a while till they think I'm dead, so until then I'm going to stay with you." Lillie blushes.

Drago roles his eyes, he would've preferred if she died in the dungeon, so that way he wouldn't have to deal with her.

Bell now is curious about something else "By the way Drago do you use magic?"

"The Magic I use is quite variant, I can use Destruction, Alteration, Illusion, Conjuration and Restoration, but I'm more skilled in Illusions than anything else." He points out all the spells he can use.

"Can I see one of your illusion spells?" Bell asks with excitement.

Drago takes a moment to think what spell he could cast on the kid, he didn't want to traumatise him, so a fear spell would be out of the question, he could cast a Rally Spell, but there isn't any threats for him to be brave, "That's it." Drago charges a red ball and fires at Bell and making a small red mist spin around the young adventurer.

For Bell the world suddenly went dark, he saw his friends one second and then they were gone the next thing he sees is nothing but pitch darkness but even that is not a good description it was like an endless void of darkness.

The young adventurer tries to say something but no words are coming out of his mouth it felt like he is choking and no matter what he did no sound would come out.

He takes a few steps in hopes that he might hit something and be able to end this nightmare.

Suddenly he could feel a tug on his collar and soon the world starts to brighten to reveal that he was about to hit a small, he turns his head to see Drago lifting his collar like he is grabbing a rabbit's ears.

"Almost made you hit a wall." Drago lets go of Bell's collar.

"What did you do?" Bell asks a bit shaken up.

"I casted an Illusion on you, I made you think that you were blind, deaf and mute, all your senses were shut off." He explains

"That was reckless of you, Master Bell could've been seriously injured." Lilly tells the Dragonborn off.

"Well he wasn't hurt and plus it was a good way to test that spell, I never did get an opportunity to use it till now"

"You could've endangered him." She starts kicking him in the shin.

The Dragonborn just knocks her back, "Don't test my patients Lillie, I'm only letting you live because you need to make up for what you did to Bell, given the chance I would kill you, so don't try make the mistake to thing we are allies."

Lillie shakes out of fear at his words, this guy is no ordinary adventurer, and if he so wanted to, he could kill her with ease.

"Come on Drago, she said she was sorry." Bell tries to relax the situation.

Drago groans out of annoyance. "Bell you are way to forgiving after she tried to kill you, we shouldn't be letting her near us." He chastises Bell.

"No, I promise I will make it up to both you and Master Bell." She says with pride.

Drago snarls at the notion, "Trust is something that isn't easily rebuilt." He turns around and heads to the Família.

"Don't worry Lillie Drago may seem rough on the outside but he is kind, just give him time and I promise you he will come to respect you." Bell smiles to Lillie.

Lillie says nothing but has a look of determination, she will prove that she can be an asset and not a hindrance.


Entering the Família the group see Hestia on the podium looking up at the sky.

"So, Miss Supporter as we discussed yesterday you will support both Bell and Drago in order to make up for that little incident you caused." The loli goddess reminds the pullum.

"Of course, I have much to pay back for the crime I did, so you can count on me." She says with pride.

Drago rolls his eyes again this pest "She really is starting to get on my nerves."

"Well you've, got a lot to prove, Bell could you go down stairs and make us a cup of tea." Hestia asks Bell.

"Yes Goddess, but we only have two cups." Bell points out a small problem.

"Oh, I don't mind we could share a cup." Hestia smiles at the idea.

"It alright I'll wont drink anything." Bell says with a smile "What about you Drago?"

"I'm fine, I'll stop at a tavern and get a drink." Drago declines the offer.

"Okay." Bell heads down stairs to prepare the drinks.

Once Bell leaves Hestia decides its time to have a serious conversation. "Listen, Bell is incredibly naïve, so him forgiving you is because he kind hearted, so that is why I am begrudgingly allowing you to work with him and Drago it would make Bell sad if I forbid him form working with you ."

"That is an understatement Goddess Hestia, I find Bell's naivety quite annoying sometimes, as it gets more him into trouble then out of it." Drago points out Bell's flaw.

"What do you mean by that Drago?" Hestia demands what he is going on about.

"Well, Bell's dream is to start a harem, since the reason he became an adventurer is to court girls with his heroic deeds." He points out what Bell's problem is. "And the fact such actions do get him into trouble. If he wasn't of the right level, he and Lillie would have perished by being eaten by giant ants."

"And your point is." Hestia wants him to continue, as she is starting to get a little angry.

"My point is this, Bell has incredible luck, probably even more then me, but his honour can and has been getting him into deadly situations." He concludes his point.

Hestia couldn't really say anything back, he was right Bell has been put in many deadly situations due to his honour and his dream of starting a harem has gotten into deadly situations.

"No, Master Bell is the Kindest adventurer I've ever met, and I can't just stand here while you bad mouth him." Lillie defends Bell.

"I'm not bad mouthing him, I'm just stating that he is to reckless and that recklessness has gotten him into trouble." He explains again.

Lily keeps quiet realising that, he is correct, Bell risked his own life rescuing her from the Killer Ant and probably would do so again, but she is still grateful and will work hard to make up for the incident.

Bell come back form the underground holding a tray with two cups of tea, "Sorry it took so long."

"Oh, it's no problem my dear." Hestia leaps to Bell's side and grab his arm and puts it between her bosom.

Lilly Looks at Hestia with anger as she will not be out done by any other women including a goddess so she quickly takes her robs of and places Bells arm between her bosom, which makes Bell even more flustered.

"Drago, please help!" Bell pleads to his friend, but he turns white when he sees Drago turn around pretending that nothing is going on.

Bell getting even redder quickly slip past the prum and goddess running from the church to somewhere else, "I've got to go!"

Drago sighs and follows him, to make sure that Bell doesn't get into any trouble, as he has knack for that. "Parden me." With that he is out.

X

Drago track Bell to the guild building and when he enters, he hears an all too familiar scream, one when Bell gets nervous or something perverted happens, and for the occasion it is the former, as he sees Bell speaking with that Aiz.

Instinctively Drago grabs his sword but then lets go realising that if Aiz attacks him here, it might cause problems for her Família so right now he has the advantage.

"Bell there you are." Drago walks over to the duo, and when Aiz eyes laid on Drago her normally half open eyes, widen out of surprise.

"Oh, Drago have you met Miss Aiz? She was just returning something that I lost in the dungeon." Bell explains why the conversation.

"Really? How nice of you Aiz, I'm Drago pleasure to meet you." Drago plays ignorant and talks to her as if they never met.

Aiz says nothing but just glares at him, making him smirk behind his mask which is what he expected, Aiz doesn't trust him, and Drago suspects is because of his dragon abilities.

"You okay Miss Aiz?" Bell asks.

Aiz shakes her head and looks to Bell "N-no everything is fine." She takes a quick glance at Drago.

"So what are you two talking about." Drago takes a seat next to Bell.

"Aiz is offering to train me before the Loki Família go on another expedition." Bell explains the situation.

"Bell if you wanted someone to train you, why not come to me?" Drago asks.

"Well, I kind of felt embarrassed about asking you and thought you might turn me down." Bell rubs the back of his head.

"None sense, we're part of the same Família so I would've helped you if you just asked." He assures Bell that him helping him is no big problem, but in the corner of his eye he can see Aiz clutching her hand, "Come on, we can't realistically train in here." He gets up and heads to the door with Aiz and Bell following him.


Heading to secret area which is on the walls of Orario Drago just leans on the side to see how Aiz would train the young adventurer and to say the least Drago has mixed feelings, on one hand someone as strong as Aiz training a young adventurer is kind, but Aiz doesn't seem to be the sharpest sword in the arsenal.

He sees that Aiz requested to use Bell's knife to show him different stances, this making it clearer that she is a bit of an air head, that changed when she kicked bell on the chin making him fall backwards.

"Okay she defiantly packs a punch." He takes a small enjoyment in this situation.

Aiz quickly moves next to Bell and squats down "I'm sorry Bell." She says in a monotone voice

Bell tries to get back up with a smile "No, you don't need to be sorry."

Aiz gets up "You should fight again." She simply says as she draws her sword but makes it lean on the wall while using the scabbard as a weapon.

"Bell, why don't you let me and Aiz have a round, I'm curious how she fights." Drago interrupts the training, while drawing his sword from his back, but leaving the razor.

"Um, okay but would Miss Aiz be okay with that?" Bell question if it is alright.

Aiz nods which is enough information that she is okay with that "Now I can see how strong he is, if he truly fought the Black Dragon and to see if I am ready." Aiz drops the scabbard and grabs the sword leaninf on the wall and gets in her usual position.

Drago smiles and two hands his sword and gets into a battle position he rarely goes into as he normally dual wields, but he decides to go easy just to have a little fun and to see if she notices he is playing with her.

While that was happening the young elf Lefiya is watching it the whole commotion and having an angry look to the Nightingale "Let see you take on Aiz now Drago she is a 1st rate adventurer a nobody like you doesn't stand a chance against her."

Aiz just looks on looking for any openings in his stance, and to her surprise he is well covered, and not too many openings she can exploit.

Drago charges in and starts swinging, Aiz quickly counters with her swords, and she could feel her arm shake a little, she pulls back and attempts to do another thrust attack, but Drago swipes away the sword to the side making Aiz her topple to the side.

"No way, did he just make Aiz loose her stance?" Lefiya looks on with disbelief as she sees the sword princes get up and ready herself again.

"He is strong, a lot stronger than he leads on." Aiz gets even more serious, this time she does a thrust attack and to counter that, he raises on his foot and pushes down the blade to the ground making her lose her balance again.

"What was that counter?" Aiz's normally emotionless face has a look of shock."

Drago removes his foot from the blade and takes a step back to make some distance, he smirks he rarely gets to use that move since few opponents try to stab him, so right now learning that move from the Akavir text he found at Sky Haven Temple wasn't a waste of time.

Aiz pulls back and gets back into stance this time even more cautious on what she does next, "Tempest" a flurry of wind form around her.

Drago smiles as now he moves into the offence and starts swinging his sword, and Aiz tries to parry them but Drago is physically stronger than her and she can feel her sword arm shakes with each impact.

Aiz jumps back and tries another thrust, but this time she is prepared for his weird counter, but Drago just deflects the sword and kicks Aiz in the stomach making her lose her breath and fall on to her back.

The Sword Princess looks up to see a sword pointed a sword at her face, "Yield Aiz, you've met your match." He warns her. Aiz is tempted to grab her sword, but Drago steps on the blade preventing her from picking it up.

The Sword Princess clenches his fist but relaxes, as she realises that she is out matched "I give up." Everyone who is watching the fight drops their jaws out of pure shock someone was able to defeat the sword princes.

"I-Impossible how could a nobody beat Miss Aiz and it looked like he wasn't even trying, just who is this guy!" Lefiya clenches the wall out of anger.

Bell on the other hand is impressed, he has never seen techniques like those before and it is even more impressive at how skilled Drago is he might be one of the strongest adventurers in Orario.

Drago returns the sword to his sheath and walks back to Bell, "Feel free to continue your training I am going to go for a nap wake me up when you're done." The Nightingale slumps on a wall and goes to sleep.

Sometime has pass and now the group are going to get something to eat while Aiz keeps an eye on him as he chats with Bell about tactics he can use in a fight since he uses knifes instead of swords which puts him in reach disadvantage.

"So, Bell the best thing you can do is try and close the distance as quickly as possible, a knife in general is no match of a sword." Drago advises the young boy.

"Thanks Drago that is really helpful." Bell thanks his partner.

"Of course, that is if he needs to fight another human." Aiz comments.

The Nightingale smiles under his hood, "That advise can also count for monsters as well, a knife will always be to short of a weapon." He then draws his razor, "I always pare my razor with my sword as a way of controlling my opponent leaving them open for a kill."

"How many people have you killed?" Aiz a question, that Bell looked at Drago with worry.

"I've killed mainly bandits and any outlaw, I tried to keep killing to a minimum, plus I don't really enjoy it, but in Skyrim it is a tough and unfair place at times, so I have had to draw my blade a few times." He shrugs the question off.

Aiz narrows her eyes in suspicion he is not telling the whole truth and that is putting her own edge. "I will have to inform Finn about him later tonight."

"So, Drago what was your home like, not Skyrim, but your home Chorroi?" Bell asks.

Drago takes a moment and stops making everyone else stop, and look back at Drago with his hand clenched. "If it is alright, I don't want to talk about it." He starts walking but moves ahead of them.

Arriving at the food stall the trio decide to order a light snack.

"Greetings valued customer how may I serve you today." A familiar voice greets them making Dago and Bell freeze in realising who said that very quickly.

"I would like one fried potato with extra sauce please." Aiz orders her meal.

"Certainly, would you like anything else?" Hestia opens her eyes and had a look of shock, Aiz is about to ask something else but Hestia jumped like a fire bolt spell to its target and latching on to Bell "Explain what you are doing with her? Its bad enough that you have a new girl every day, but to go out with her of all people, honestly aren't I enough?" she then turns her head to Drago with pure anger in her eyes "And you! You were supposed to make sure this doesn't happen, I told you to protect him from any threats." She jumps off to Bell and heads to the Dragonborn starts poking him on his chest with a lot of force.

"Goddess Hestia you told me to protect him from threats, not from other woman?" he quickly picks her up and keeps her at arm's length "Besides you have no control who Bell can and cannot date."

Hearing that Hestia freezes in place like she heard the bad news and turned as white as a ghost, and fainted from shock, Bell quickly rushes to Hestia "Goddess Hestia!"

Later on, after Hestia regains consciousness, she took the trio to a corner to ask what is going on here. "So, she has offered to train you until she heads to her next expedition? And Drago also offered to help you to, am I getting everything Bell?"

"Yes, Goddess Hestia, that is the full story." Bell confirms everything with a bit of hesitance.

Hestia crosses her arms and closes her eyes to think it over, "Fine I will allow it." She then points to Drago "And you will accompany him until this training his over."

"Wait what? Why do I need to watch over him while he trains?" The Dragonborn protests not wanting to waste his time, with things Bell can do on his own.

"You need to keep him safe, so that Aiz Whatsherface doesn't seduce my Bell, so you need to keep an eye on her." Hestia orders The Nightingale.

"Well I guess she has approved of it." Aiz says oblivious to what was just said.

"U-uh yeah." Bell says a bit nervously.

Drago rubs his head out of frustration, "Why did I join this Família." He rubs his head out of frustration, but he then hears something from two male adventurers.

"Man, I can't wait to head to the Ishtar Família's Red Light district, the women there are top quality." He says a loud.

"Yeah I epically like the Amazons, those clothes really make them really sexy." He smiles with glee.

I might need some me time, so I'll head there." He starts walking off.

"Hey where are you going." Hestia asks.

"I'm going for a little me time, so I'll see you tomorrow." With that he leaves the group to their own things.

Staying behind the two men he arrives he sees, a large gate with Red-Lights hanging around it, and now he knows why it is called the Red-Light District, the gates opens to see more buildings and very attractive women all over the place seducing woman.

"I'm going to be enjoying it tonight." He lowers his hood and pulls down his mask so that he doesn't scare of any potential partners.

As he is walking, he notices women in buildings trying to seduce him, "Come one in big guy, and I can show you a little fun." She says with a seductive tone.

Drago walks over and puts his hand through the window and starts caressing her face "Maybe next time." He pulls his hand back and starts walking away.

As he is walking, he notices a good portion of the women are Amazons, with a few humans and a couple of elves and a few animal people, but still he might try and find something interesting, he notices a group of amazons trying to seduce a few male adventurers.

The first girl is tall and has a well build body but not to muscular which gives her an alluring figure, wearing quiet revealing clothes pink wrap around her breast and trousers that had what look like her underwear with see-through fabric on her legs.

The second is also an amazon is a little shorter and wearing fewer revealing clothes but still is quite seductive as she is wearing a white wrap with and a sleeveless top, wearing white baggy trousers.

The third and final one is wearing a white wrap with orange strips wearing a see-through skirt that shows her undergarment

"Evening ladies." He walks over to the group and smiles

"Well hello handsome." One of the Amazons walks around him to see if he is worth their time

"I was wondering if I could obtain one of your services." He looks behind to the girl who is examining him.

"Well since you are a handsome one, I think you are worth our time and you are especially worth my time." One of the Amazons walks over and smiles.

"That is a good thing." Drago smiles, and then realises something "May I know your names?"

"I am Axinim." She points to herself; she then points to the girl behind her "That is Borba." And she points to the girl behind Drago "And she is Itaja."

"Well ladies I think I like to have Itaja tonight." The Nightingale points to the shorter Amazon.

An interesting choice, but it is your discission." She then beacons him "Come on, lets head to the Família." She heads to the Ishtar building.


So here is the next chapter sorry for the long wait, Just been busy with a lot of things with school and what not.
