Disclaimer: I do not own Danmachi or make profits off this fanfiction. AN: In this fanfiction I've decided that Spirits can indeed have children, but only if they have bonded a part of their soul to a mortal race. That part resulting in the birth of a child that is a Half-Spirit. In this story Aiz and Bell will both be Half Spirits.

Ottaria heard everything from Anya, one of the Executives. She warned Alfrigga that after the Wargame was all over. That the two would have a talk about responsibilities.

Ottaria knocked on Goddess Freya's door after nodding to Hildr. Ottaria heard her allowed entrance.

The Boaz took note of a Pallum maiden and Bell Cranel standing in Freya's private chamber. Standing in the room behind Freya was Hörn disguised as Syr. Freya's former captain also stood behind Freya, Mia.

Freya looked the Supporter with her divinity in full effect, "Child, what brought these events to pass?"

Lily looked down, embarrassed by the beautiful Goddess. She spoke with tears welling up, "Lily's parents were members of the Soma Familia. Lily was brought into the Familia since birth. And the liquor was so good. That Lily would do the same as her parents. Anything for the Soma. When, Lily realized her situation. Lily got sober and Lily thought to steal from Adventurers who always cheated Lily."

Lily swiveled trying to stop her crying, "Lily was found out by Canoe. Canoe decided to take Lily's possessions and valuables to buy more Soma. Now, Lily cant buy her way out."

Lily began to cry as she looked at the great war Goddess, "Lily now realizes her mistake. Lily should never stole from Adventurers. Lily should have sought a Hero. Someone to rescue Lily."

Freya looked at Bell with a smile. She knew the original reason why Bell came to Orario was to be a Hero. And get a bunch of maidens to fall in love with him. Despite turning his eyes to Syr once he was saved. It looked like his original goal would be fulfilled.

Freya looked at Lily and spoke her command, "Syr, since it was your Developmental Ability that produced this child's new robe. What is the value of a robe that heals all past and current wounds, including status effects?"

Hörn/Syr played her role expertly, "Geez, Hött. You sure know how to make a girl her money. Maybe I should lend out your services some time?"

Lily glared at Hörn/Syr, "Lily hardly thinks that's appropriate language to use with Master Bell."

Hörn/Syr smirked, "Master, huh? I didn't know you had such a fetish, Hött. Should I perhaps dress as your maid?"

Bell blushed and scratched his cheek, "Uh, not at this moment."

Freya's interest was peaked at Bell not saying 'Ms. Syr'. Had she begun to wear off on him?

Hörn/Syr hummed as she said to Lily, "The payment for my robe is Supporter services to the Freya Familia free of charge until you are relieved from the Soma Familia. You can of course choose your emplo-"

Lily stood up up straight pointing to Bell at her side, "Lily wishes to be employed by Master Bell."

Freya closed her eyes with a sigh recognizing the rival as Hörn/Syr giggled, "So, be it."

Freya looked at Ottaria next with a fury that even she knew threatened to use Arcanum if it came to it, "Ottaria, the previous mission is tabled for now. Hurt pride comes second to damage to my children. Please make it known to the Soma Familia, that we will not tolerate injury to one of our own. If they do not accept the challenge of a War Game. Then, their home will be burned down and their valuables relinquished until enough is procured to pay off this child's exit fee. I don't care what the Guild does in retaliation. We're the most powerful Familia in the middle of the world."

Ottaria nodded and took her exit. She was aware that War Games were decided by the Gods. But, her mission was clear. Uphold a standard for all the Familia members safety. The Soma Familia would regret angering her Goddess.

Freya then looked at everyone else in the room, "With the exception of Bell. I would everyone to leave."

Bell was alone with his Goddess, "Is something the matter?"

Bell averted his gaze, "No, Ms. Freya."

Freya picked up on it immediately, "So, you know?"

Bell nodded as he now stood before both his Goddess and his Idol. She closed her eyes and blushed, "I'm sorry for being dishonest."

Bell stopped her right there as he ran to her. Grabbing her hands, startled by his forwardness. Bell spoke pain in his very heart, "No Ms. Freya. You weren't dishonest. You truly felt all those things as Ms. Syr. You truly gave me a home. Saved my life. Offered her hand in friendship and trust. You saw what no one else saw. And I will not stand for anyone that makes you doubt yourself."

Freya blushed as she averted her gaze from the bo-no man before her, "So, your magic is truly magnificent. To take Hörn and Syr's magic to make it your own. You saw all my memories then?"

Bell then did the unthinkable as he took her chin and pressed his lips to hers. She blushed and felt herself tremble. His drive and passion could be felt as his lips pushed her back into her chair. She reached for her heart and made a tight fist.

His lips left her and she opened her mouth to exhale. She opened her eyes to see Bell lose all that drive once he realized what he did. He shrunk back, "Sorry, Ms. Freya. I was just trying to pay off my tab"

Freya smiled as she touched her lips. Heart a flutter and soul ablaze in lust. She blushed, "If you think that pays for the knife. Then, you're right. But, all future reckless actions such as the one with the Supporter will also cost you."

Bell nodded, "Yes. A Hero must make up for worrying those that he has sworn fealty to."

Freya replied to him regaining her composure, "So long as we're in agreement. You owe me a night of cuddling."

Bell lost it, "Ms. Freya, you can't be serious."

Freya giggled letting her happiness be known, "Why Bell. You just agreed to my statement. Do you plan on going back on your word?"

Bell sweatdropped as he consented in defeat, "No, I will pay."

Freya giggled as she stood up and hugged Bell's face into her bosom petting his hair, "That's a good boy."

Ottaria tried to walk past the guild when she was stopped by a Half Elf, "Dungeon Queen. I've heard about your injured Adventurer and how he suffered from a pass parade. Please, don't do anything rash."

Ottaria moved her stony gaze to the woman shorter than her by at least a meter, "Rash? My actions are justified. My Goddess would give no other orders than such. You'd do well to remove yourself from my way, Half Elf."

The Half Elf steeled herself, "My name is Eina. Now, we are aware that your reasons are justified. So, we're taking appropriate action. Ms. Canoe will be blacklisted from the Dungeon for attempted murder. And Soma Familia will be fined for 15 million Valis."

Ottaria bent down to look Eina in the eye, "I respect your position. You are brave for a Guild Receptionist. However, the Freya Familia has standards. Standards that must be enforced. To ensure it, a public display must happen. Either the Guild sanctions a Wargame or we go to war. All of Orario, nay the world must know. Freya Familia does not tolerate harm to it's members."

Eina looked the beautiful and powerful maiden in the rust eyes, "Understood. It would hardly be fair if you participated however. The Soma Familia has no Adventurer higher than 3."

Ottaria agreed with Eina, "Very well. What restrictions would you place?"

Eina replied as she introduced Shakti, "The Ganesha Familia has five floor boss monsters available. We propose that each Familia assembles a four member team. The Familia that secures the magic stone will win that round. With the best of five rounds."

Ottaria leered as she gave a nod, "A unique War Game that will show our prowess and not show merciless violence to the offending party. An interesting approach. The Freya Familia accepts these terms."

Shakti held up a finger, "This is just the first term. The second is that the Soma Familia can fill their ranks with additional Familias members. Familias will be compensated by the Guild. To provide a kind of fairness. Admittedly, the Soma Familia is too weak."

Ottaria smiled as she spoke with glee, "On one condition of our own. Bete Loga must participate in the War Game."

Shakti rose a brow, "You want a Level 6 Member to assist Soma Familia?"

Ottaria replied, "You said to make the War Game more fair did you not?"

Shakti nodded as she gave the meeting back to Eina, "Very well, Bete Loga will participate."
