Chapter 1: The arrival and the first reality.
One day in Orario, a light illuminated the city from one second to the next, and at the next second, several people were in a huge room, with many chairs arranged in front of a huge 'mirror'.
The most powerful adventurers on the world quickly recovered from the sudden glow and looked everywhere, some relaxing at the sight of familiar people, while others frowned and others were frightened.
The reactions were... varied to say the least.
"Freya-sama." Ottar spoke to his Goddess, covering her with his body. "Stay behind me."
"Loki." Finn, the captain of his Familia, addressed the deity. "Do you know what that glow was and why we're here?"
"Nope." The goddess of mischief answered smirking. "No idea at all."
"It's not the time to laugh Loki-sama." The beautiful vice-captain of the Loki Familia reproached her Goddess. "They brought us to an unknown place as if nothing had happened."
"What's going on!?" The scream of a voluptuous goddess, known as Loli big boobs, joined the comments of the other deities. "Bell, where are you?"
"H-here Kami-sama."
Both the executives of the Freya Familia as well as the senior executives of Loki turned their gaze to the pile of people in the center of the place.
Bell Cranel, level 4 adventurer of the Hestia Familia, was at the bottom of the heap, with several girls on top of him.
"I should feel jealous." Welf Crozzo, blacksmith of the Hestia Familia, spoke amusedly. "But in this case, I actually pity you."
"Bell." A beautiful blonde with golden eyes asked. "Are you okay?"
"No." The Cranel responded. "Could you all get up? Please"
"So-sorry Bell-sama." Another beautiful blonde, this one with fox ears, answered while blushing.
The Renard stood up from the Cranel's left arm, while the Wallenstein pouted before getting up from his right arm.
Two elf girls, one green-haired and one golden haired, got up from the albino's legs, the first blushing and the other glaring at the boy who only complained with his face to the ground.
"Airmid." Naaza of the Miach Familia spoke to the healer. "You could get up too."
"Ye-yes." The silver-haired beauty got up with a small blush from Bell's back. – I apo-pologize Cranel-san."
"Don't mind." Bell stood up, shaking a little. "These kind of things happen sometimes."
Each adventurer went to their group, looking everywhere for something that could help them figure out what brought them to that place.
The Loki Familia and the Freya Familia stared at each other, Bete Loga and Allen Fromel glaring at each other while their captains nodded at each other, agreeing to a temporary truce.
The Hestia Familia was quickly surrounded by their acquaintances and friends, moving away from the stronger and more volatile Familias of Orario.
"Bell..." The demi-elf Eina looked at her favorite adventurer. "What did you do?"
"It wasn't me this time." Bell fought back.
"Yeah, don't blame Bell-kun." Hestia added, hugging the arm of the adventurer.
"Hey, don't take advantage of this, Hestia-sama." Liliruca became angry with her patron goddess.
"Wow, I didn't think I would have an adventure with you Ryuu." Syr told her best friend smiling. "And what a nice seat you had."
"Don't tease me." The old vigilante looked away.
"I think I found something." The voice of the god of messengers was heard by all groups.
Hermes grinned, holding a book size thing in his hand and pointing to a hole in the glass the size of the book.
"What if we sit back and see what happens if I put the book in the hole?"
All the adventurers saw him as if he were an idiot, not believing that he would do something as stupid as that without knowing what would happen.
The gods, on the other hand...
"Sounds interesting, do it, Hermes." Loki seconded him.
"Ara ara." Freya giggled, controlling her charm to not overwhelm the mortals. "Go ahead, let's see what happens."
After the most powerful goddesses of Orario declared their intention, the others had no choice but to accept it and sit in the chairs according to their group.
Bell blinked as he sat in the front chair, feeling the piercing gazes of many girls in the only chair next to his...
Before Hermes sat next to him after putting a book in the hole.
Hey Bell. – The god rubbed Bell's shoulders with his with a smile, ignoring the glares of the love interests of the Rabbit Feet. "Are you excited?"
"No."
"Well, you'll have to be, the glass is showing something."
Both mortals and gods looked at the glass, which showed an image that surprised everyone.
"It's like a mortal mirror." Miach said surprised.
In a small house in the northeastern district, a little Vouivre pursed her eyes as she felt the sunlight hit her face from the window.
"Ujjj." The little blue-haired girl complained, opening her eyes to glare at her window. "Bell, close the curtains."
"Wiene?" The albino smiled when he saw the little Xenos.
"That's not the mansion." Lili frowned.
"Why does Argonaut-kun live near our castle?" Tiona asked.
"Alternative reality." a powerful voice answered the Amazon.
Immediately, everyone looked at the origin of the voice, watching a God with obvious signs of advanced age entering a door and addressing them.
"Uranus?" Miach asked, surprised.
"What are you doing outside of Babel?" Loki questioned with her eyes open, something unusual about her.
"The light also affected me." Uranus answered. "Be at ease, it is nothing harmful, the time in Genkai is frozen, you can relax."
The most experienced adventurers relaxed their postures upon hearing the words of the most powerful entity in the world, and returned to watch the 'glass'.
The girl received no response, and blinked in confusion at not seeing her favorite person next to her as usual.
"Where's Bell?" Wiene wondered, seeing everywhere. "I have school today, and he would never let me sleep all morning."
"Is Wiene-chan in school?" Haruhime put her palms together contentedly.
"But why do I live there?" Bell wondered.
"La Vouivre took a long time to get up and never arrived on time to her school, so you rented the house so that she won't have that as an excuse for not attending." The god of the heavens explained.
"It reminds me of someone." Tione looked at her little sister with a shadow over her face.
"Hey!"
The albino would normally wake her up for breakfast together before he goes to the dungeon and she to the elementary school the adventurer enrolled her to.
"More nap time for me." The girl hided under the sheets to sleep a little more.
"Why are we seeing this garbage?" The werewolf with a bad temper said, ignoring the glares of the most maternal women.
"Bete, shut up." The princess of the elves told him.
"Tche."
"She looks so cute." Tiona said to Lefiya, who nodded reluctantly.
Monsters couldn't be cute, that went against the natural order of things.
"She lives with Bell." Aiz thought frustrated. "I'd like to live with Bell."
Two minutes passed before the girl got dressed in a blue t-shirt and black shorts that Hestia gave her for her second birthday, pouting as she left her room and walked to Bell's.
"Bell!" Wiene opened the door carelessly, waking up the young man. "Wake up!" The blue-haired monster frowned when she smelled the Room.
It smelled weird.
"Ehhh... - A groggy Bell pulled his head out of the sheets. "Wiene, what are you doing here?" Bell sat on the bed, exposing his chest.
"Wow, you grew up very well Bell Cranel." Aisha remarked, licking her lips when she saw the exposed chest of the captain of the Hestia Familia.
"Bell, You look gorgeous!" Hestia drooled, embarrassing her first child.
Haruhime and Lili only blushed at the sight of a more adult version of the boy they loved, while Ryuu hid her head by remembering the moments, they embraced each other on the 37th floor and how developed the albino looked in the picture.
Lefiya cursed at the sight of her rival so grown, trying to ignore the warmth of her cheeks and the silly smile of her beloved Aiz upon seeing the image, which the Amazon sisters rubbed shoulders to annoy her.
"I need a way to immortalize that image." The Yandere goddess thought, seeing without blinking the grown-up Bell.
"How old is Cranel-san there?" Riveria asked Uranus, staring at the Cranel on the screen.
"17." The supreme God said, seeing everyone's reactions.
"The boy grew up quite a bit." Gareth emphasized with a laugh, realizing a detail that the women overlooked. "Who would expect that."
Hermes just smirked, noticing the same detail.
"You have to make me breakfast." The little girl responded while inflating her cheeks. "Why didn't you wake me up?" Wiene looked at the sides. "And why are there clothes lying on the ground?"
The adventurer grimaced, looking at his bed and the female body hiding under the sheets, before seeing his adopted daughter and thinking about what to tell her.
Silence flooded the room, with most of the women now looking at the front chair, where a pale white-haired stared frozen at the glass.
"Wow Bell, what were you doing you sly rabbit?" Hermes added fuel to the fire.
"What's Bell doing?" Aiz asked the busty amazon, who smiled at her while one eye flickered at the red-eyed poor guy.
"I think we'll see soon."
"Bell-kun..." Hestia's pigtails moved from one side to the other as if they had a mind of their own.
"Let's keep seeing the screen." Uranus' words distracted the women.
"I was doing a few things and ended up more tired than I expected." The boy said to the blue-haired girl.
"What things?" The Vouivre asked her hero, curious.
"Yes Bell, what things?" Syr smiled at her friend, who turned to answer him, before immediately turning his gaze to the front.
That smile was terrifying.
"The boy became a man." Aisha said quietly to Naaza, who just smiled slyly.
"I don't think ours will."
The tension was evident.
"Adult stuff." Bell replied, trying to end the conversation.
"What things?" The girl repeated, staring at him.
"Stuff." Bell looked everywhere, before seeing a bag filled with valis. "Why don't you go to the cake shop and buy something today?"
"Bribing a girl." Welf joked, trying to lighten the atmosphere. "Didn't expect it from you Bell."
"We didn't expect much from Cranel-san." The elf waitress said dryly. "What a way to surprise us."
"Yes, who would expect that." – the Pallum with chestnut hair added. "Bell-sama wasn't as innocent as we expected."
"Mmm." Hestia nodded.
"Did I ruin it more?" Welf asked his partner.
"At least you tried." Mikoto answered, looking at her best friend worried.
Haruhime had lowered her gaze, clenching her fists on her lap, while the Freya Familia endured the urge to shoot the white-haired bastard for making their goddess frown.
"How strange." Freya thought, seeing the screen. "His soul... I can't see it well."
Bell could only avoid the glances, while he began to be uncomfortable at the aggressive words of his acquaintances.
The Bell on the screen wasn't him, why then do they blame him?
"Seriously?" The girl's eyes sparkled.
"Of course." The Cranel sighed, feeling like he dodged a cut to the liver. "Take it, but don't buy something strong for your stomach, Kami-sama will pick you up today in the afternoon for lunch."
The adventurer threw the bag at his adopted daughter, who caught the bag easily before smiling at her hero.
"Orario had to change those years a lot for Bell Cranel to be so calm with letting the Xenos go alone." Finn said thoughtfully.
"Two years have passed in that reality; it is not impossible for such a change to occur." Hedin commented.
"Ba, who cares about that." Loki grinned lewdly. "I want to see who ate the Chibi's rabbit."
"Loki-sama, don't say it that way." Riveria massaged her forehead.
"I bet it's Aiz." Tiona whispered to the person next door, only to receive Lefiya's horrified gaze.
"Why are we seeing this?" Airmid asked in a low voice, to which Daphne replied.
"Because it's entertaining, I guess."
The tension increased, with the girls realizing the possibility that it could be one of them.
Except Hestia, who gritted her teeth and almost hit the smiling prick of messages on his stupid face upon hearing his laughter.
"Oki doki." The girl turned to leave. "Goodbye Bell, Goodbye Riveria-chan."
"..." The person under the covers froze.
"..."
Again, the silence flooded the room for a few seconds, and the tension disappeared.
Bell's face almost seemed to exhale smoke, and the red of his eyes camouflaged on his red face, while the gazes of the male executives of the strongest families of Orario focused on his back.
The women, on the other hand, looked at a frozen green-haired woman who until a few moments ago was scolding her Goddess.
"Bell, it was a pleasure to meet you." Hermes 'said goodbye' to the last hero. "No doubt you made your grandfather proud."
"..." Bell didn't speak, hitting his face with his palm.
"Goodbye Wiene." The body under the covers answered after a pause.
The red-eyed girl walked out of the room carelessly, going to another day from school, thinking about what cake to buy.
The screen became transparent after the last image, and no one knew what to say.
Until a few laughs started coming out of Gareth.
Followed by those of Finn, to the surprise of Tione.
The next second, Bete would then fall from his chair, clutching his stomach as he cried from the laughter.
"You like them young, Riveria." Gareth told his companion.
"There's nothing wrong with that." Finn tried to 'support' his right hand.
"You're a cradle robber Riveria-chan." Loki joined her children's laughter.
"M-me..." Riveria tried to speak, but found no words.
For the first time in a long time, the strongest mage didn't know what to do.
"Riveria-sama's very beautiful." Haruhime said, feeling her eyes burn. "I'm not surprised that Bell-sama's attracted to her."
"That fricking bastard." Tiona was surprised to hear her elf friend curse. "How dare he take advantage of Riveria-sama."
"I don't think that Argonaut-kun took advantage at all, Riveria was heard quite well."
"Stop talking, you idiot." Tione told her sister.
"Why not?" The most developed sister pointed to the girl in their midst. "Oh, that's why..."
Aiz just looked at the ground, feeling a pressure in her chest that took away her air.
What were both of them doing in bed?
The sword princess didn't know many things, but she wasn't stupid, and what she saw on the screen was something she didn't like... Not at all.
Bell got up and began to walk around the room, ignoring the accusatory looks, the taunts of some and the murderous instinct of more than one, thinking about what to do.
The adventurer's red eyes found the blue orbs of a person he admired very much.
When Ryuu looked away at him, evidently annoyed, the little rookie could only ask himself.
Could things get worse?
"They will." Uranus spoke. "They will do get worse, very quickly."
