Heart Of Gold

by Padre Damaso

This is not supposed to happen if I didn't left my safehaven. Now, well. Let's just say it is also fun... dying. No, it's a joke. Dying is not fun at all, I tell you that. Though, I know God will help me and save me in this time of problems and here I am now in an Anime I just recently watched (SIOC)

2. Chapter I

Chapter I: Familia

---

"Yes, my name is Bell Cranel"

"I'm Tony Pendragon" Nice! I finally introduced myself with that surname! I looked at his meal and was surprised "Are you going to eat all that?" I gestured to his meal

The protagonist shook his head "No, the manager pushed me to eat all of this"

I just chuckled at his face, I can't believe it. I'm talking to the main protagonist of this story

"The customers with reservations have arrived!" yelled the demi-cat, Anya. Finally, the group arrived already. Now what to do

"Wow, she's beautiful!"

"Dumbass, look at that emblem!"

"That's the Loki Familia"

"The Goliath-killing Familia?"

"So that's the Sword Princess"

I look at Cranel's face and tried not to laugh

"She's beautiful, isn't. That Sword Princess" I said as I stare at my blonde counterpart "Do you want me to talk to her for you?" At this, Cranel's face burned up and started to flail his arms

"Please don't!"

Sorry, kid. She's already on my arms reach. I raise my right hand and tap the Sword Princess's shoulder. The blonde turns towards

"Hey! You're Aiz Wallenstein, the Sword Princess, am I right?" I said with a loud voice, silencing the pub. All eyes stared at me as I carelessly talk to the famous Adventurer. The blonde nodded "Could I please ask for a minute and thirty seconds of your time?" All gazes fixated on me as I speak, Cranel's face can be noticed reddening in embarrassment "At the moment, my friend there…" I pointed at Cranel and he tensed "wants to have a talk with you, I know he looks scruffy in right now. But you see… next time you see him with me, I'm going to make him flash as hell!"

"Hey isn't that the wimpy little brat who had obviously just started to walk the path of an adventurer got cornered by one of the Minotaurs who had escaped from us, right?" The Fox human interrupted, laughing. I look at Cranel as he dashed towards the door and towards the dungeon as I can remember

I went closer to the Wolf man

"Hey" he looked at me and I glared at him. Why are you looking at me with those eyes, addict?

"Huh? Do you want a fight, Mr. Good-looking man?" mocked the demi-human, laughing off as he held his stomach. I saw his Familia members look at him with disappointing eyes

"Look I don't want to have a fight here," I sighed pinching the bridge of my nose "I just want you to apologize to the kid"

"And why would I do that? He's a weakling and I'm strong. And the strong governs the weak so why would I apologize to that Tomato-kid, huh?" Again, I'm being irritated by his style of speaking. If his Familia isn't here then I would have smashed his face to a nearby wall already "Huh? Fox got your tongue? Can't speak, Mr. Handsome?"

Snap!

I blurred out from my position and grab the neck of the bastard and throw him outside. Many stares fixed on me as I control my patience; let's teach this guy how to be humiliated, shall we? I started to walk outside and the wolf bastard stand up and glared at me. I cracked my knuckles as I prepared my fists

"Prepare yourself, Motherfucker"

I use Presence Concealment and dash towards the demi-human. I let my right fist kissed his left cheek and he stumble back, he regain his balance and look at me. I use again my Assassin-class skill and started to walk towards him

"Show yourself, Coward!" yelled the werewolf

"Behind you" I whispered behind him and as he turns around, my fists again planted a kiss to his jaw and abdomen. This is good in stress relieving. I again disappeared to the naked eye and my opponent made a beastly stance. I jump so high and made my elbow hit his back

"Consecutive Normal Punches" I said in a monotone, mimicking the bald hero. I was about to walk away when I sense the werewolf was still conscious, I pulled Excalibur Morgan from my back in order to block the blade and the wolf bastard jump back

I charged mana into the blade; Excalibur Morgan's linings shone and it illuminate the darkness of the night. It made the fox to have a defense stance; I change my casual garments and materialize my armor, making my real strength show off. The light of the sword and my armor shone in the dark as I took a stance identical to Saber. I charge at the fox with blinding speed and with my charged Excalibur at my back

"Excalibur…"

I swing it upwards with a roar

"MORGAAAAN!"

A beam of purple color shot upwards as the fox got caught in the beam, the bastard only shout in agony, after three seconds of releasing the beam; I flick my hands and the dark beam faded down. Leaving a toasted…err, beaten Bête Loga

"Remember this Bastard, all strong person started as a weakling!" I made my own speech which I didn't got from any shows and carried the body, I noticed the crowd is watching us from far from us. I quickly enter the pub and throw the fox towards his seat

"Thank you for the lesson you had given this bastard but… I think you had overdone it" a green haired woman or should I say an elf? And she's beautiful but nah! Never mind "But may I ask. What happened to your clothes awhile a go?"

"Oh, about that… this is my suit when I enter the dungeon, my clothes a while ago is just my casual attire. Well you can say that this is my Uniform" I said with a smile

I turn to the goddess of mischief "I'm very sorry for what I had done, Loki-sama. But this bastard irritated me so much that my body moved and taught him a lesson. Please forgive me" I bowed at the goddess with sincerity

"Ah, that. It's no problem at all. I can see that this child of mine is really prideful" she waved with a red face. She's drunk

I turn to the blonde who is now standing "Uh, thank you for the minute and thirty seconds of your time, miss" I waved at her and went towards the dungeon "Later"

I hopped from roof to roof in order not to be robbed. Hell! I don't want to repeat how I died in my home world. I reached the tower, and went straight to the first floor

Now, let's go and teach this kid how to be a (Im) proper hero

Ω

I lazily walk through the dungeons as I swing my longsword when a monster pounces at me. Where did that brat walk through? As I turn around I saw a bunch of Monsters and an Idea popped into my mind

"Okay…" and Idea popped up into my mind

Let's earn a thousand monsters!

I passed through the first floor and many kobolds, goblins and other species of monsters spawned in just five minutes. I evade the other attacks of the goblins and went deeper to the second floor, leading the monsters where our Protagonist is fighting other monsters

I approached the white-haired kid and the monsters followed. When I'm twenty meter away from him; I used my favored skill, Presence Concealment. The monsters that I lured noticed Cranel and charged towards him

And this is what we call Pass Parade!

Ω

He should have not spoken to Aiz Wallenstein-san. If he didn't then, I will not be called Tomato by that Foxy Bastard

Before I knew it, a huge horde of monsters is charging towards me. One hundred, three, five… What?! A thousand? How can a thousand of monsters spawned in a single place? This is too much for a level one. But! This way, I can get stronger by sending these monsters to Nirvana. And if I got stronger, I can save all Girls in the dungeon as what Grandpa said

As I was Fantasizing about my dream, ten goblins prepared their clubs to strike me. Before I can react, I noticed a blur and the ten goblins are cut in half, the monsters disintegrate and left its crystal. I turn my gaze to my left, where my savior stood. He was cladded on armor. The man is wearing a blue hood, he sheathed his blades

He turned to me and said

"Are you just going to stand there doing nothing?"

Hey! This voice sounds familiar, where did I hear it again?

"You want to be a hero, isn't?"

I prepare my knife and made a stance

"I'm going to be a Hero!" I yelled and charged towards the horde of thousand monsters. Did I made a mistake?

Ω

Is this kid for real? He's thinking about something while monsters are going for his head? He's an Idiot, I think. No, he's a real idiot. If I didn't went and kill the first wave of monsters coming for his head, then he'll be dead right now

"You want to be a hero, isn't?"

What's with this stupid question that I brought? Is this even me? He's the protagonist!

"I'm going to be a hero!" shouted the kid, preparing a stance and dashed towards the wave of monsters. I only smirk in response and look at the back of the Cranel. I draw my two longsword and followed suit

Ω

I fell down to the floor as we breathe heavily

"D-damn, tha-that's the f-f-first time I fought so many m-monsters"

Heck! I sounded like a man tired of having sex with many women. Is the author of this story even normal?

I made my body sat down instead of laying my body on the floor. I put my eyes on the ceiling and Inhaled heavily

"Bwaaaah…"

I'm wasted. Really, I don't know that luring monsters with that number and using only regular swords are too harsh even for this kind of body. That's the first mistake that I ever made in this world

"Th-thank you, s-sir" Cranel said as his words is repeating as he breathe

"No prob…" I give him a thumbs up and a strong wind pushes my hood off my head. Wow, that shocked look on this kid's face was great "What? Did you saw a ghost?"

"Pe-Pendragon-san, what are you doing here?!" Wow the surname makes my body tremble

"Nothing, I'm just farming" I simply said. From the look he's giving, I knew that he's confuse about the word "I'm just walking" After saying that three words, I can see five Minotaurs standing not far from us. I draw Excalibur Morgan from my back and started to walk there, slowly with passion

"Stay back, kid"

The frozen-in-fright kid snapped from his thoughts and nodded. He took a step back and I'm still walking

Hayz, I'm exhausted, damn it! GIVE ME A BREAK!

I dashed towards the five Minotaurs with Excalibur in hand

Ω

Minotaurs!

It's Five Minotaurs at that. I saw Pendragon-san move and draw the sword from his back, a black sword with magenta linings. Is he serious? He's going to die!

"Stay back, kid" said Pendragon-san, I only nodded and step back. I don't know him fully but, I know he's strong. He took the ¾ of the monsters a while ago all by himself. But he's exhausted! He can't fight the Minotaurs just by himself, I need to help him. But! I'm afraid, what if it killed me? I don't want to die yet; I still want to save girls in a dungeon and become a hero! No, no, no. I need to help him. I was about to follow Pendragon-san fight the Minotaurs but, upon setting my eyes to where he went to. My eyes widen when I saw Pendragon-san stood in the ground with five Minotaurs at his feet, slowly fading into dust particles

"Huh?"

Did he killed the Minotaurs by himself only? By HIMSELF?! I turn to Pendragon-san. He turned his head towards me and smile. After that, he collapsed to the ground

Ω

Warm, it's so warm. I open my eyes and a ceiling greeted me. Huh? Did I went to the Inn? I rouse from my slumbering form and look at my surroundings. A single table, A sofa and a long chair nearby the table. This is not the Inn, right? I look down my clothes and my Casual Attire greeted me. I noticed Excalibur Morgan is leaning on a wall. Did they put it there?

I was about to stand up when the door (Which I didn't noticed) open. A person came out of the door…

WHAT THE FUCK?!

IT'S A MOTHERFUCKING LOLI? WITH BIG BOOBS!

"Oh, you're up already?"

Don't 'You're up already?' me! Hell! Where am I? I turn my head to my right and then to the left. FUCK! There's no window?! Did they abduct me? Is my chastity still pure!?

"Don't worry, I'm not going to eat you" the Loli-with-Boobs said, waving her hand "Bell-kun carried you last night and said that you helped him in the dungeon. I'm very grateful for that"

Bell-kun? Bell Cranel? Oh… so this is Bell's goddess, Hestia. The goddess of the hearth, home, domesticity, family and the state. And she's a MOTHERFUCKING VIRGIN! And what's with the string!?

Dear Lord God, we please and glorify your name. Please God… keep me away from this woman, so I can still keep my sanity. Amen

"I'm very sorry, Hestia-sama" No, I'm not "I'm just shocked that I'm not in the Inn that I'm staying at" I'm just shocked to have a virgin goddess here in front of me "By the way, where is Cranel-san?" Yeah, where is he? He's more trustworthy than this woman

"Bell-kun ran off to somewhere saying 'I forgot to pay something' or like that" Oh, that one? "By the way, may I ask a question, sir?"

"Tony Pendragon" Shit, I can't still take this feeling when someone or me mention this surname "And what is it that the goddess Hestia want to ask?"

The goddess' features went grim as she made an expression I cannot decipher

"What are you?" Huh? "Your aura… I can feel Draconic and Divinity emitting from your body. And your sword…" she pointed at Excalibur "It reeks of Evil, Hatred, Envy and all other Negative Emotions, it's the polar opposite of your aura"

Well, yes. My body reeks of a dragon because this body of mine had a dragon element inside and it boosts my Mana storage (Well, that's the only thing I know, though). And Excalibur Morgan reeks of evilness and impurity, it is also strong. But it is still a (Un) holy sword and it's strong enough to make a horde of thousand monsters to fade in less than a minute

"This is my question, Tony Pendragon" Hestia said, gaining my attention "What are you? Are you a god?"

"I'm your father" I deadpanned. Silence enveloped the vicinity. Really? Is this the only question all of you can ask me? Who or What am I "My real name is Cronos" Ha-ha, thank God I still remember the name of Greek gods and goddess and their family. I look at Hestia and her eyes are widen "No, that's only a joke"

"This is a serious matter, Tony Pendragon!" yelled Hestia out of anger? I only sigh and become serious

"I don't know Who or What I am" I said with my eyes unwavering. But there's also in the F/GO, the heroine there… Mashu, I think. A human fused with a heroic spirit what do they call it again… Bah! Never mind the complicated matters, let's just live our life to the fullest! "That's the truth. I just waked up here in Orario several hundred years ago and here I am now"

"Several hundred years? You live for hundreds of years?" asked Hestia, with her eyes widen again

"Nah, scratch that. I only arrived in Orario a year ago" I said, pinching the bridge of my nose. I can't really stand serious people like her. It's better to talk with a drunkard than a serious person

"Then do you remember why you carry that corrupted sword?" asked Hestia-sama, I shook my head "If you keep using that sword… you'll be affected as well"

"It's just a weapon… it's just a thing used for killing monsters. Why do you have to go so far as to ask me why I have to carry a thing an adventurer needed?" I picked up Excalibur and my two longswords. I strap my two swords in my waste and I strap Excalibur's sheath at my back. It's time to leave "Thank you for the care you had given me, Hestia-sama. Someday, I will repay your kindness" I use Presence Concealment and walk towards the stairs. I can see that the goddess was confused and was looking right and left. I see, so gods cannot sense me when I use this skill, heh…

Ω

[Cue: Le jeu de Robin ET Marion]

I went straight to the Inn and saw a huge sack of God-knows-what in front of the building. Dafuq!? What does my gold stash doing outside? What if strangers went and carry the bag to elsewhere? I went straight to the building and was greeted by maids, cleaning the inside. I was about to go upstairs when a hand went to my shoulder, I know the shape of this hand… Shit! I turn around and I saw Mia Grand, the manager of this building; Hostess of Fertility

"Good morning, Mama Mia" I said, smiling. Shit! I can feel a sweat sliding down my nape "Why are my things outside?"

"Thanks to the trouble you did last night… you're now banned from renting a room upstairs" said Mama Mia, grinning. Maaan… why do you have to ban me from renting a room upstairs, it's just a room…

"But I didn't broke one of your properties last night…"

"But you hurt a customer" Bah! Who cares about that bastard? He's only a boastful, spoiled brat

"Yeah, yeah. I promised I'm not going to rent a room upstairs" I said. I can just buy a house with that money "By the way, did a boy with a white hair and red eyes that looked like a rabbit went here earlier?" I asked, Syr-san look at me

"Are you asking about Bell-san?" Syr asked, titling her head

"Yes"

"He ran off to the dungeon an hour ago, I guess" she said and went to her work

"Thank you, then… for the support you had given me" I wave to the occupants of the building and went towards my things, a single huge sack of Valis. I don't know how did the maids pulled this from my room, yeah my room is wide in the inside but the door is human size only… Never mind. I look at the huge sack; I think I already had billions of Valis since I first went to the dungeon. Thanks to my Multiplier skill

I carried my huge sack with one hand and many people stare at me as if this is the first time they saw something like this happening. I was about to turn right in a corner when a person stumble over me, I lost my balance resulting in me throwing the sack up the sky. I regain my balance in less than a second and notice that the person is falling; I pulled the person and caught the sack

[Track faded down]

I look at the person, who is clutching at my shirt. The hood of her cloak went down slightly and it revealed an auburn haired woman

"Uh, miss" I said, snapping the woman, who is already hugging me instead of clutching onto my shirt. Is this some kind of joke? The auburn haired woman went behind me and a group of men arrived

"Bro, did you saw a woman run towards here? We're looking for her" said the man with the face mask. Heh, is he mimicking some 90's gangsters? The woman behind me clutched harder on my coat and I look at her

"Is this the one you're looking for?" I pointed behind me with my thumb, the woman behind me only look at me with betrayal. What? I'm not the kind of man that saves a woman from a group adventurer with weird fetishes. But… "Relax, miss. I'm not giving you to them anyway" I smiled at her which she sighed in relief. What do you expect? I'm not the type to give beautiful women to bastards…

[Cue: Lorne Balfe- Trouble in Town]

I turn to the group of adventurers, five people. This is a good stress reliever! I hold the hand of the woman "Stay here" I went and draw my longsword; I put a small amount mana into the sword which I knew was impossible for a regular sword. Though, I knew that Excalibur Morgan influenced these two swords and it now… I can charge the sword with mana to reinforce it, boosts its speed and accuracy

"Bro, I don't want any fight to break out. Just give us the woman and you will not experience pain" said the guy with the face mask

"Sorry, guys. But I need to release some stress" I said and walk towards them. All of them draw their blades, form a stance and look at me in the eyes. Heh, do you think you can read my moves through eyes? For these guys, I need to use my favored skill, Presence Concealment. Let's see if they can fight me, even if they are high class adventurers

I activated the skill and confusion broke out in the group, I stab the man in black. The man fell down to the road and it shocked the four others

"As I told you, this is only a simulation for me to release some stress" I sheathed my blade and prepared my knuckles. I planted my fist to the guy with the shades. The guy with shades flew towards a wall, I deactivate my skill and face them "So, who's next?" Really? After all these incidents, I cannot laugh now nor troll somebody. Two guys charge towards me with two scimitars in hand, nice choice for a weapon but… I'm out of your league

I simply kick the two guys towards the wall near me, the two gangsters' head was planted in the wall and are trying hard to get out. I turn to last member of the group and made a taunt use by martial artist in movies. The guy with the facemask charge towards me with a yell? Seriously…? These guys are idiots, shades, black shirt, face mask. Where do they get these kinds of garments? I only sidestepped to me right and slap his head to the ground. I grab a potion from my pocket and made the one I stabbed drank it

[Track stop]

I turn around and saw the woman bow to me

"T-thank you v-very much, s-sir!" Oh? Shy types, I see…

"Meh! Why are you thanking me?"

"B-Because y-you s-saved me from those a-adventurers…" she said and pulled the cloak off her body and wow… she's smoking hot. Her clothes consist of a white dress that reached down her knees; her long auburn hair is reaching her shoulders and her bangs is covering her forehead, her skin is pale… pale like a sick person and she only reach my shoulder level, I look at her in the eyes

"By the way, what's your name?"

The woman freeze for a second, thinking "Uh, My name is Eos" Eos… did I heard this name before at school? What is it again…? Eros? Nah! She said that her name is Eos not Eros so… no connection "I'm a goddess" Scratch that! There's a connection between the two

Now I remember, Eos… the goddess of the dawn. Though I barely remember any information about her but she's a goddess

"Forgive my rudeness, Eos-sama" I bowed before her, I raise my head and saw her smiling at me. Don't smile at me, damn it! I'm not worthy of it! "May I ask something, Eos-sama?"

"You already asked a question…" smiled Eos-sama. What is this? I can feel my chest wring…

"Then, may I ask another question?"

"You asked a question again" she giggled. A memory flashed into my eyes, it showed a girl laughing in front of me. I shook my head and blinked my eyes

"W-why does a g-goddess like you walk the s-streets without their F-Familia?" Shit! I sounded like a girl talking with her crush… Damn it, nerf her!

She looked away from me and her cheeks had the hue of red "U-uh, I just came down from heaven…" What!? "So, this is my first time in a long time walking in the mortal world" she's embarrassed "I didn't have a familia…"

What is embarrassing about telling a stranger that you didn't had a familia? Hayz, there's only one solution for that…

"Then I'll join your familia. You said it right? That you didn't have a familia… Then I'll become one" That's not the reason at all, I also want someone to update my status… Shooting two birds with one bullet. I'm a genius!

"A-are y-y-you sure?" asked the goddess, timidly look at me with the red hue still on her cheeks. I look away not looking at her eyes to calm my mind

"Well, yes. I haven't met with my deity a very long time ago and I'm sure having a deity close to me… I can see my status more often" I said, looking at the crowds. I went to the crowds and noticed that they're looking at a bulletin board. I look at the board and was overwhelm by the contents; Bell Cranel's picture. I look at the details, reaching level two in a month… They didn't write my name in the description? Well, let's tell Rose now to announce everything that will happen to me

Eos look at me and cough at her hand; regaining her composure

"What's your name, sir?"

"Tony Marrero or you can call me Tony Pendragon or Ton-ton" I said, scratching my nose, picking a booger and throwing it to a nearby person. I wish the person who will receive this thing will be lucky until the end of his life

"Then I, Eos, humbly appoint you, Tony Marrero, as my very first member of my Familia" said Eos, with her index finger pointing at me. Is it really necessary to give out a speech like that? It's old school; make it a little modern, would ya?

"Yes, yes" I said walking towards where the Hestia Familia's HQ is stationed

Ω

Let's see… I can see a nearby run down building near the church where Bell is sleeping. Let's appoint some builders to build a huge mansion in the middle for me and my deity and maybe Bell's also. We went to the run down building and stood at its front

"This is where we will live until the house is finished being built" I said to the goddess behind me, who is looking at the house with a calm look "Are you okay, Goddess?"

"Yes, I am" she said and look at me with a sweet smile, I flinched and looked away. What is this feeling? "I'm just excited, I didn't experienced living in this kind of house before" Excited, huh? Surely, gods and goddess are rich in any way

"Is that so… but it's only temporary… even Hestia's house is over there" I pointed at the huge church "So we will have to live in this house for now" I noticed Eos nod, we enter the house and Fuck! Webs, webs everywhere! "Goddess, please leave the house for an hour… I'll just clean the inside" Eos-sama nodded and went to the door

Now, let's start to clean this abandoned house

Ω

An hour passed by and heck, I cannot recognize the inside of the house when I first entered it. As I expected of my household skills… it cannot be compare to others, I went outside and saw an auburn goddess

"Goddess, please enter the house now" I said to the goddess, as we re-enter the house; I can see Eos-sama gaped because of the great differences of the former to the latter

"Huh? Did we enter the wrong house?" she looks back and saw the door where we pass through

"No, Goddess… this is the inside of the house that you saw an hour ago" I said with confidence

"Sorry, I thought men don't know how to do cleaning" she said, laughing. I look again at the room and saw table, chairs, a single bed without the foam and a sink… Perfect!

"By the way, Goddess can you update my status now?" I'm excited what my level is going to be

"Not now" said Eos-sama "I have a banquet to attend tonight and I'm too lazy to bed you for now" What? Bed me? Is she crazy?

"What time will you return, Goddess?"

"Around three or four days" said Eos-sama and she went to the door again "So please… don't leave this house unclean" She smiled at me one more time and closed the door. What is this feeling when I see her smile or laugh…? Don't think about that! I opened the door of the house and leave the door

"Let's go and make a contract with the carpenters"

Ω

I made a contract with the contractors and they said that it will take two months to finish the house… Really? Two months? Houses cannot be built with that time duration only. I kicked another Orc and it fly towards its kin and they fell down, I'm bored. I only sit down at the ground and used Presence Concealment. I noticed many adventurers running past me, I turn around and saw…

"It's an Infant Dragon!"

"It's three Infant Dragons!"

Dragons… a mythical monster, it has a long body and has four limbs, it also has wings and a tail with spikes. It is also representing the devil, but! My body has a dragon element does that mean I'm evil? I don't know about that… I went towards the three infant dragons and pulled my longswords. I charged towards the monsters

"Is he crazy?"

"He's going to die!"

Don't worry; I don't plan on dying again. So stand still and watch and learn from your fellow adventurer

The three infant dragons noticed me and I can sense mana flowing into its neck. I sheathed my two longswords and again pulled Excalibur Morgan. I jump and raise Excalibur above my head

"Excalibur…"

I hope this is worth it

"MORGAAAAAAN!"

I noticed that the light of the beam went darker than before, its magenta linings turn crimson and I noticed that after touching the dragons it went down the deep floors. Ugh, I did it again…

I jump back in order not to fall to the pit of hole, I look at the hole and heck, and it also became wider than before… what's happening?

Ω

Three days had passed and now I'm going to watch the Monster philia. The first time I know of this event, I tried to join but they said that only the members of Ganesha Familia can only join in, I made such a trouble before but I will not do it again. Now, I'm standing in front of the coliseum, I was about to enter when someone shouted…

"A monster!"

[Cue: Escape the fate- One for the money]

I turn around and saw a bugbear, a Minotaur and a Lygerfang. Geez, are these guys nuts? Why do they release something like a monster in a crowd? I used my Presence Concealment and banished from the crowd.

I deactivated my skill as I reached the monsters, the bugbear noticed me and charged towards me with a club in his hands… are they tamed? I materialized my armor and put on my hood, I blocked the club with my hands… let's try beating these guys manually! I sidestepped to my right and the Minotaur with a crossbow? Hahahaha, what the fuck was that? A Minotaur, a melee monster is using a range weapon and the Lygerfang… a huge tiger with the mane of Lion and has the body of a man. I jumped high not in range of the bugbear, I raised my feet and I strike the bugbear. The bear monster faded in dust and I turn to the Lygerfang and Minobow, the Minotaur prepared its crossbow and pulled the trigger, I let the arrow struck me and it tickles, I grabbed a stone from the road and charged mana into my hand, I throw the stone and released the mana and like a bullet; it pierced the Mino's body and faded… the last monster left is the Lygerfang. This guy is only a Weretiger but, the Lygerfang dashed towards me in all fours. I draw one of my longswords and pointed it at the Lygerfang, the monster lunged at me with its jaws open and I pushed the longsword to its mouth going towards its heart

[Track Stop]

The monster disintegrate and I can see civilians giving me a round of applause, I waved at them and disappeared

Ω

I killed almost all the monsters before the Sword Princess' arrival; I banished again and followed where I saw a gorilla. After I knew where the gorilla is, I saw Cranel fighting the huge albino monkey. Hey, is that a new knife he is wielding? Black with weird engravings on the blade… Did he stole that blade? It looks expensive and pretty strong too. I only watched at the roofs as Cranel run and strike the albino gori, he jumped high and grab the wire and pull it and made himself as an Angry bird. He sliced the gorilla with that blade? The gorilla's restraint was destroyed and Cranel use the blade to stab the white monster and slid to the left; the monster stops functioning and fell to the ground. The crystal fell to the ground and what is wrong with that blade? It's so sharp

I turn around and noticed a person cladded in a cloak not far away from me… hmmm, I gave a nod and he/she return it also with a nod. What is that person doing there?

Ω

I went home and carried the foam to the only bed; I prepared all of the garments of the bed and tada! All okay, I think I have Archer's liking to household chores. I laid my body to the bed and dozed off to Dream land

Ω

A teenage boy was in a corner, smoking a cigarette. His black hair covering his eyes, this boy is named Tony Marrero, he is 19 years old. His parents died last month and he locked himself in his house. Many bottles of liquor was rolling on the ground, others still have content and others are already emptied. His parents promised him that they will wait for him to finished college and marry and wonderful woman but, that promised has been broken when his parents died. He felt regret building in his chest and the feel of betrayal

"I don't want to live anymore…" he muttered, sadness in his tone. He put his cigar in a plate; he put his legs in his chin and looked at the clock. 12:00 in the afternoon "Now, what to do…" he was about to drink his last bottle of liquor for the day when the doorbell of the house rang. He stood up and went to the door

He looked at the door's lens, he was shocked at what he had saw; a lady in a school uniform. He opened the door and looked at the girl, the girl has an auburn hair that reaches her shoulders, her pale skin shining in the sunlight and her bright smile not leaving her face

"What can I do for you, miss?" Tony said in an erratic voice. The girl smiled at him

"I'm here to take you to school!" beamed the lady, Tony only blinked once, twice. He opened the door

"Come in"

The woman entered the house without hesitation or nervousness; Tony closed the door and went to his usual spot

"What did you said again?" asked Tony, he sipped at his cigar and blow

"I'm here to take you to school" said the lady, smiling still at Tony

"What if I didn't want to?"

"Then I'll force you…" the girl's smile never leave her face as she spoke to Tony. Tony only sighed and went to his room, he knew that if he didn't went to the school; he will be disturbed or annoyed by this girl

Ω

The scene changed. Now, it is a classroom. Tony's body is still thin, but he is now smiling. He is feeling joy and happiness again; he was talking to the girl, Marianne, the girl who visited him when he was still locked in his house and now she's the one who motivate Tony to go to school. The smile never leave her face, when she's around Tony or not, she's friendly to everybody.

"So, did you already watch the latest episode of Fate/Unlimited Blade Works?" Yes, Marianne is the reason why Tony learned the word Anime. She's the one who taught him that if he got bored, he can just watch some Anime and there and she was also the one who taught Tony on trusting God in all the problems he is experiencing. Watching Anime is now one of Tony's hobbies and praying to God is one of his daily duty "Did you stop drinking and smoking, already?" Tony nodded at this

He stopped his hobby of drinking liquor and smoking cigars and converted it into watching anime. He loved the story of the fantasy and science-fiction. After that, he also learned about Video games, when he had free time; he would play some games in his PC even if he already finished the other games; he will still play it because he's bored

Ω

The scene changed again. Many months had passed and the admiration of Tony for Marianne became love, he was browsing the net, searching for good advices in love. He excitedly left his house, and went to school. He was waiting for Marianne to arrive; a flower was in his bag. And there she found Marianne, coming out from an expensive car. The window of the car slides down and revealed a handsome looking man. Tony watched what was about to happen and he froze in his feet, Marianne kissed the guy, lips to lips

[Cue: Rhythm of rain –Cascades]

He didn't know what he's doing but he knew that he was running towards the gate of the school, leaving school. He knew that the girl he loved was watching him as he run. He run, and run, and run, he never knew if he was tired or not. The only feeling he could feel was the feeling of betrayal and regret. After thirty minutes of running, he saw his house. He hurriedly enters the house, locks the door and closes all of the windows. He went to his room and locked it; he went to a corner of his room and sat there. His body is trembling, in the verge of crying. He suddenly heard a thunder echoed outside his house. He can heard the rainwater hitting the roof of his house

"W-why?" he is crying now, he wiped the tears with his sleeves and sob "Why?" How naïve was he? Thinking that because she is smiling at him and laughing with him doesn't mean she likes him! She was also smiling at his other classmates, that's the kind of person she is; a kind and cheerful one. He pulled a pillow and dug his head to it, he had made a mistake and now he is regretting that decision. If he didn't went to school then, then, he isn't experiencing this right now. This feeling of emptiness, loneliness and sadness he can also feel anger because of his immaturity

He hated himself, he hated on how acted. The smell of petrichor permeates in the air, Tony cannot stop crying. His pride, mind and feelings had been damaged. He cannot accept the reality that he will be alone again

"Remember, God is always with you. Even if you said that he didn't help you in your problems, he's looking for a way for you to solve it in your own. He's your own supporter" the words of Marianne echoed in his ears

"L-Lord God, h-h-help m-me…" he was sobbing, even if many hours passed. He cannot alter his feelings immediately "Forgive m-me for my c-childish p-personality…" His chest only tightened as he prays "Guide me, L-Lord, i-in becoming mature, and B-bless Marianne and her L-lover" the word made his chest ache even more "This I pray. Amen"

He raised his head from the pillow and saw his PC, he stand up and wiped the tears he had reproduced, he sits at the seat of his Computer. He turned on the Computer and put his headphones onto his ears, he played an anime show and started to focus at the show

[Track faded down]

Several hours later, sound of laughter can be heard in the room of Tony as he watch anime and skipped classes. He ignored the doorbells that ring when someone pressed it, even if it's his classmates or neighbors; he never opened the door except if it's his orders or money that he earn through the internet. And here starts the life of Tony Marrero, the NEET

Ω

What the fuck? Why did I dreamed about that timeline of my life? I felt something warm and heavy in my chest, I opened my eyes and look at my chest and… Fuck it! I saw my goddess, naked, and she's on top of me and what!? I'm topless and I'm on my boxers, I froze in my spot. What happened? Did we do it? No, don't think about those fantasies… But, how did my clothes got off of my body… what happened!? I stared at my goddess' beautiful body and a boner raged on my crotch. Argh! I turn to my right, where one of the windows is placed; I cannot see light so it's evening now. Hayz! It's nighttime now and I don't want to disturb this beautiful creature, think!

I wrapped my hands to my goddess' body and put her to my left side carefully. I pulled the blanket from my right and covered us with it, I still wrapped my arms into my goddess' body… Shit! Just sleep! Sleep! I unconsciously pulled her closer and the body heat emitting from the both of us made me drowsy and once again, I slept
