Chapter 6: Return Spirit and Hero
Bell P.O.V:
"...and that's how I used Solomon's Key to return to normal instead of killing you and you know the rest. "I finished telling Saphire about how the world works in this age and also about some of the things that happened to me as Argonaut and my life after being born as Bell Cranel while she was training to control her Falna's abilities.
"So, basically you begin an age called the age of Heroes. Aria-San married the last one and they got a daughter which traveled time about 1000 years and you too are in a near romantic relationship who is the reincarnation of the princess you saved as Argonaut. "She said as she manifested her wing of fire which was crimson red with blue edges like the one she had in her previous life but the length was much shorter, then she took to the sky and flew for a few seconds only because she doesn't want to bring suspicion to us. She continued talking after landing like an eagle and making her wings disappear.
"And that applies for 5 other girls which two are the reincarnations of Si and Mi and two others are the reincarnations of two girls you knew as the 'Fool Hero', and one was your little stepsister and the other one is descendent of Syn-San." She paused a little and took the sword I made using 'Sanie Almaeadin' The new eleven magic I gained as we travel which was a very powerful magic that consumes a lot amount of mind but it allows the user to create pure Orichalchom and many other metals and the like in a permanent statue and I reshape it by the other magic 'Hadaad Alf Aljan' that reshapes a pure material bu mixing it with compatible material which in this case I used some of the drop items that Antares drop when I defeated him which a bit funny since that means that her previous self helped in saving her. For the sword, the blade was made by mixing the Orichalchom, a piece of Udaeus' Bow, two Valgang Dragon Fangs as well as Mytrill. The handler was made by Orichalchom and Valgang Dragon Scale to make it durable enough but at the end of the handler, I made a pointed end that was made from Orichalchom and Unicorn' Horn. I made the handler crimson red with a bit white and the blade was like a black sword with two dragons crafted on each side, one was red and the other was blue because of the different colors of the fang. She took the blade and then the dragons on each side shone and she brought it down which released a mixture of ice and fire attacks but the attacks soon negated each other which made Saphire a little mad because of how she failed in using ice and fire which hurt her pride. She calmed herself and continued walking and then she spoke.
"You have a crazy goddess of beauty after you who will destroy the world for her desire. You went back in time with your mind only after spending 111 years gathering materials for that while spending the last one alone as the last mortal alive. Before coming back and getting back your memories, you fought an entire Familia to save one girl you already fought the entire Orario and the group of Evilus that is corrupted insane group of mad individuals with people who are way stronger than you to save intelligent monsters and fought a monster that gave people twice your level a hard time after fighting your teacher. "She then made two cuts on both of her hands, and she didn't even flinch. The one on the right ignited with a blue and purple flame and disappear and the other on the left got white snow particles that come out of the wound healed it before disappearing.
"Not a week later, you fought and killed an irregular monster that fought your entire group with ease and one of them had years of experience and was a Level higher than you at the time with a single strike no less. Then, you didn't waste time and fought some kind of a simple killing machine that cuts off your arm, broke your neck, and throw into a running river that contained monsters within an instant. You survived four days in an underground place that spawn monsters continually and you couldn't use one hand and with no food while saving a crazy elf that doesn't want to be saved and was a crazy avenger. After barely surviving that, you were basically a corps but you entered a fight with the entire city at stake and saved many people with only one hand because you couldn't use it and used an attack that gave people hope in that desperate situation that your small Familia reversed the situation and alone you killed a monster that it took many people with a lot experience and power to take with only one strike. I don't know what's left but this is insane on many levels even for you. "She said that I took a breath then continued.
'She says that after leavening many other important things I did.'
"But that the best thing about you and what makes things interesting when you're around. It is like you always said. 'Even the abnormal rules don't apply to 'Devil' ." She said that with a smile, then she laughed innocently and loudly. After a few minutes of laughter, I hit her head.
"Awe. Why did you hit me? "She said with an annoyed voice.
"We need to go now. I told you what are we going to do. "I explained to the annoyed red-haired girl which made her expression become serious.
"Is your body okay? "She asked with a worried expression.
After she said that, I looked at my hand and remembered that my body is still healing from my fight against Antares. I can't fight using my body's ability without the risk of it falling apart.
"Well, all I have to do is survive until tomorrow and I will be ok. "
We continued walking until we felt some powerful people coming our way. We climbed a tree nearby and hid there.
They were all Aazoness and a goddess who has long red hair that is a color similar to fresh blood and crimson eyes. She was the ruler of Telskyura, Kali.
Then I noticed the two who are more powerful than the other waling on each side of Kali. Both had sand-colored hair and yellow-orange eyes. Those two were the Kalif Sisters. They are Level 6 Argana Kalif and Bache Kalif.
'I can't beat these two, not right now. First, I need to get my body healed. If push comes to shove I will use my magic to get us a chance to escape. I shouldn't have used all my magic. 'I thought as I felt their eyes on me.
'I should greet them and hope a fight does not happen. 'I thought as I gave Saphire a look which she understands what I meant by it, feeling how powerful these Amazoness are.
"Sorry for hiding there. We just felt how powerful you are and thought you were monsters. "I said while bowing while I sweat a bit.
'I don't think they will think that I'm lying. I truly thought and still think they are monsters.'
"Haha haha haha haha haha. "After I said that all the Amazoness were laughing except Kali and Bache.
'Why are they not laughing as well? Bache doesn't seem to care and Kali is curiously looking at me. '
"If your so afraid, you should've fled when you felt how powerful we are. "Argana screamed while still laughing.
I took Saphire's hand so she would understand that we need to keep acting weak.
"I think we wasted enough time here we should continue our journey to Melen. "Argana said and Kali and her children continued on their way. We moved out of their way and so we can avoid any trouble.
While they were walking, Kali looked at me and her mouth moved without a sound which was unnoticed by her children. "I know you are powerful. Your eyes before you spoke were of a person who destroyed someone who's stronger."
I felt so much rage that I could've just killed them with Alfia's most powerful magic to make sure they don't talk but I didn't because I know she doesn't know that I'm capable of killing all of them if I were in my best condition. I continued looking at them until I no longer could see them.
I took a breath and said to the girl beside me.
"Let us go. We have some friends to bring back to life. "
"Of course, we will bring back Aria-San and Albert-San. "Saphire said with a big smile on her face.
After walking for one hour, we reached the location I agreed to meet Fels at.
We didn't have to wait for long until a black-hooded figure appeared.
"It's good seeing you again, Fels. " I said that to Fels with a bow.
"Bell Cranel, I want to know why did bring that girl with you. "Fels said while pointing at Saphire.
"Sage Fels-San, my name is Saphire Ruby. I'm...well Bell-San servant or something like that. "She said while being embarrassed by the last part.
'Well, Saphire was my servant as Enyo. 'I thought as Fels was surprised by what she said.
"Fels, don't worry. She is a trustworthy person. She knows why called you here. "I declared to Fels until he noded.
"What did you call me for then? "Fels asked with a serious voice.
"I like to use your magic, Dia Orpheus, to bring someone back to life who will die in a few minutes. "I declared to Fels as he was surprised by what I just said.
"How did you ...? You saw me use it in the future. "Fels declared.
"Yes. But, not in this situation. In a situation so very bad. You better not know what I mean by it. All I can tell you is that I would've lost someone important to me without your magic. "I said that remembering Weine's death and revival as tears flowed from my eyes.
Seeing my reaction, Fels understood that he better not ask not right now.
"I will stop asking about this but did you see what's going to happen to Orario. "Fels asked the most obvious question to be asked.
"The Last Great Quest come to Orario. The quest was about to be finished until...a deity save the dragon and Orario was destroyed. "To say Fels was terrified is an underestimation. Fels fell on his knees and uttered a single word in a weak voice.
"How...? "
"The death of all most the entire Freya Familia called the dragon. " I said while avoiding looking at it.
"What could kill the Freya Familia? "Fels asked with a low voice.
"Something that would've been born yesterday but I made sure it wouldn't. Also, you don't want to know what is, trust me I know I didn't want to. "I said as Fels get up as felt life come back to his skeleton body. Then, Fels said.
"So this is why you asked for this quest. You used this quest and endangered yourself without asking for a reward. "
"The only reward I need is people's safety. "I said that as Fels noded.
"Now, I will hide the pillar of light from your magic. Also, start your chant as soon as I finish mine. We don't have much time. "I declared as he got ready to cast his magic.
"Conseal even, the light of heaven. Hide light even in the endless darkness. I'm the curse that swallows the sun. I'm the blessing that accepts the void. Celare Vitam. "I finished the chant as a purple fog appeared and enveloped miles above. When I was done, I throw the last piece of flesh, that was being kept in crystals by the color of green and black that belonged to Aria and Albert, and Fels begin his chant.
"Unexplored area, the forbidden wall. On this day, I disobey the code of heaven - the Asklepios of Pius, the chalice of Salus. Thy voice forcing the power of healing to reach out - I desire it regardless of the wait."
A white magic circle expanded by the moment. The twinkling magic energy surpassed the realms of human comprehension.
"Tribunal of the king, thunder of condemnation. If thou art burned despite the providence of God."
The white magic energy illuminating the underground tunnel burst through the hole overhead, forming a white pillar that reached the heavens.
"confront your own hell. Open Kaimon, beyond the river of the underworld."
The song's tempo increased. As the magic circle glowed even brighter
"Listen, dark king. Wish to cross the threshold of insanity."
it was a reverberating, majestic tune. A divine harmony. And a sinful deed that went against the laws of the earth
"Stop unexpected tears, scattered lamentation. The price had been paid."
It was taboo magic conjured with an extremely long chant. It could overturn predetermined fate, a secret technique capable of defying an irreversible, absolute truth.
"Light of the road. To sacrifice given in the past, I want illumination of the foolish desire."
Resurrection magic granted to only the Sage of old.
"Oh, I do not look back."
And a request was made in exchange for all of Fels's Mind
"Dia Orpheus"
When he was done, the crystals get destroyed as the flesh begins forming the form of two human-looking creatures. When each one began to show the characteristics of the people, Saphire put a blanket on them to keep us from looking at their naked bodies like I told her.
"…That…was my first success...Eight hundred years, has it been…? How I loathed this pointless magic, this useless hope that took up one of my Status slots all this time...But yes…there was a point. "Fels said the same thing he said when he revived Weine in my last time.
'I would've said this was fate but I know they can't do anything anymore. 'I thought Fels was about to lose consciousness because of mind down but we can't have that happening right here right now.
Bang
Bang
Bang
Bang
Bang
'I've already charged Argonaut for 30 seconds and now it's Albert's turn. 'I thought as my hair became black.
"Heal Tempest. "I used my wind healing magic. When chanted this magic, gold and black wind were mixed with the normal green one. The wind enveloped Fels, then he get up.
Fels looked at his hands and then asked me.
"Impossible, how can such short chant magic restore all of my mind? In fact, I feel like my mind is even higher than before. "
"I increased its effects by using two skills. I'm not going to tell what they are. "I answered as fast as possible but Fels seems to believe me.
"Well, Bell Cranel, I think we should depart now. " He said as he left without saying anything.
When I became sure that he left, I used the gloves to give Aria and Albert statues and then I updated mine.
After was done, I looked at the status of the three of us.

"..."
"I'm no longer surprised by this insanity anymore. "I said as I looked at Aria and Albert.
I took a look at the sleeping duo and noticed that they were waking up.
I remembered what happened with Alfia which made me react right away.
"You two, wake up and don't attack I will explain what is happening. "I screamed at them and they looked at each other and Saphire brought the clothes and armors and we left to give them a chance to wear them.
After 10 minutes, we returned and Albert was wearing a maroon scarf and light armor that I made using Orichalcum and looks like the ones Welf make and the clothes under it were black. Aria was wearing similar to Aiz's adventurer clothes and armor but her back was covered and her armor was made from Orichalcum.
"Before you ask the armor is truly Orichalcum but I made it as light as possible. Now, I'm going to explain what happened during the time you couldn't interact with the rest of the world. "Then I told them about the gods Falna and show them their status after telling them about the gloves.
When I told them about Aiz, they were about to run to her but I used everything, also every skill, I have to stop them.
"So, you should go and get used to your Falna, and 10 days from now come to Orario. I will tell Aiz about the two of you. Also, bring the objects I hid in the cave of 'Death'. "I told them that as they were looking for something to say to get them to meet her at Melen today.
"Fine. "Albert said which I responded by giving them one of the pouches that can store things the size of Orario.
"These are your weapons. Light Orichalcum. "I said as I gave them four weapons.
The weapons were two swords that look like Desperate but one was the same size as Aiz's for Aria and the second was a bit longer for Albert.
The other two were a scythe where snath was made from 'Sin' bamboo's wood that was almost as strong as Durandal and the rest was from Orichalcum and the other was a sword Purely from Orichalcum where the grip was white and the blade was black.
"See you in 10 days then. "I said as I was about to leave.
"One moment. How did you know that is how my armor look like during my previous life. "Albert asked as I was shocked by what he said.
"I didn't. It's just my smith make armor the same as the one you wear. "I said as they were shocked by it as well.
"We'll talk about it later. It's probably a coincidence. "I said hoping as was right.
"You're most likely right. "Aria said that as she took Albert's hand and they left. But we said one final thing to each other.
"Good Luck, Fool. "
"You too, King. "
"This is may lead to many problems. "I said as Saphire spoke while laughing.
"Hell will come and you'll still win, Bell-San. "
She said as we left to Melen.
Bell and Aiz will have sex in a room while the other girls peeping from a door.
Bache will go to Orario with Bell because Bell will beat her in three games while making a bet against Kali after her defeat.
Bell will talk to Aisha and Haruhime.
Bell will punish Bete for what he said about him after getting him to talk to Filvis.
