"Alrighty, you kiddos have been working hard so you all deserve a break, drink to yer hearts content!" the red haired goddess known as Loki, yelled to her children as they entered the Hostess of Fertility.
"Is this just an excuse to get drunk again?" was the question of the prum captain, Finn Deimme.
"Well, the hag did cut her off from booze for a month, so yes" the dwarf beside him answered.
"Her pranks were getting out of hand, so I think it was deserved and long overdue" the high elf said as she sat down with the rest of them.
"Hey hey Ais! You fought Argonaut-Kun right? How was it? Did he hit you? Did you beat him senseless again? Did he beat you?!" Tiona, the flat chested sister, excitedly asked the blond swordswoman.
"What are you saying Tiona-san?! Of course she beat that human, I bet he wasn't even able to touch her" the orange haired elf known as Lefiya looked towards her idol, waiting for the confirmation of her statement.
"He... got stronger" Ais didn't know what else to say, he was able to slice her chestplate, and he definitely got faster, and a bit stronger.
"Forget about the rabbit for tonight Aizu-Tan! Relax!" Loki told her, but it was obvious to anyone that she was drunk.
She nodded and did what she was told, but she also answered some of Tiona's question regarding the fight a few nights ago.
Seeing Tiona's bright mood, the others also started chatting with each other.
Gareth got bored and started having a drinking competition with Bete and Loki, Tione was swooning over Finn again, Riveria gave Lefiya advice on how to use her magic more efficiently, and Ais was telling Tiona how her fight with Bell went.
She looked down and saw that mini Ais was painting a portrait of her and Bell while holding a little bunny plushy and her thoughts drifted towards the albino boy.
'I wonder what Bell is doing right now' her thoughts were interrupted by the scream of her goddess.
"hotties!" Loki pointed at the door and the members of the Loki Familia curiously looked over to the entrance of the pub and saw 5 figures walk in.
A female Renard, a female Elf, a female Human, a male Renard and a big dude in armor.
They proceeded to the bar, ordered their food and chatted with each other.
"Hey Hey mama, can I? Can I?!" Loki tugged on Riveria's sleeve and kept on discreetly pointing on the newcomers.
"Who's a mama?!" said elf smacked their goddess "Besides, we don't even know if they're a part of a Familia or not" she explained to and forced her to sit down.
A few minutes pass and Loki is still bugging Riveria about the 5, but that stops when they overhear the conversation their having.
"That dungeon was kinda boring" the male Renard complained as he ate his spaghetti.
"Yeah, I wasn't even using my hands and those floor 30 thingies still died fast" the Elf grumbled and started eating the salad in front of her.
"That Udaeus is an insult to the true skeleton king" the Human said while slurping her soba.
"While the monsters were a bit disappointing, we did get what we needed, which should be-" the female Renard was cut of when a random adventurer slammed a drink on his table and walked over to them.
"Hey, should we interrupt them?" Tiona whispered to their table.
"Nah, this seems entertaining" the drunk goddess said while waving her mug of beer around.
"Aren't you new around here? Ya ain't foolin anyone dumbass!" it was clear that he was drunk. and angry at their statement and the female Renard tried to resolve things peacefully.
"Please calm down sir, we didn't mean any offence to what we-".
"Zip it bimbo!" the adventurer got angrier when his insult didn't seem to phase her.
"Oi, no fighting in my bar!" Mia mama yelled out but the female Renard said that it was fine.
"Hey, since you made it to the 30th floor, why don't you prove it, unless you're too much of a pussy!"
"Sorry, but we don't really want to waste our time with a retard" the Elf said nonchalantly as she sipped on her drink.
"You lot really are just all talk" said retard chuckled "Then I guess your deity is just as cowardly as you if you have to lie like that" he laughed, but failed to notice the impending doom in front of him.
'What's going on?' Were the words in Finn's head, as his thumb wouldn't stop throbbing.
"What should we do captain?" Tione whispered to the small man beside her.
"My thumb is aching like crazy, but let's watch for now".
'Insulting one's deity can never go right, is this why my thumb won't calm down?' his thoughts were interrupted when the human spoke.
"Huh?" Was the cold response of the female human after she finished her soba.
"He's done for" the male Renard whispered to the Elf and the Armored man, both of which agreed with his statement, albeit the latter did it silently.
"What? Are ya really dumb that you can't understand what I'm sayin?" the retard was intimidated by her, not only by the tone of the way she spoke, but because her eyes looked empty, and seemed to be piercing his soul.
"Then let me point it out, your no name deity, is a pussy-hrk!".
An overwhelming pressure filled the pub as the woman raised the man by his neck.
'What's going on!? What's up with this pressure?!' Finn and the rest of the Loki Familia tried moving to prepare for a fight, but found it hard to even breath, and only the executives managed to stay up due to their level as the other low level adventurers passed out.
"It seems to be..." the monotone voice started.
"... That you do not value your petty existence" the man tried to apologize, but couldn't due to her grip on his tightening.
"Fuck 'im up Stella!" the Elf cheered for her friend.
"Do you have... any last words?" She asked him, not that it would matter, he would die no matter what for insulting their Goddess.
"He... Hel-p, P-Ple-".
They all heard the sickening crunch as the mans throat was crushed, and saw his lifeless body fall to the ground.
No one could move or say anything, except for the group at the bar.
"Can I have some more ale please?" The Elf innocently asked the stunned cat waitress in front of her.
Tiona couldn't take it anymore and slammed her hands on their table and pointed towards the uncaring human.
"Oi! You just killed someone you know!" She was angry, not only at the fact that she killed someone so easily, but also because of how uncaring she was about it, the scene in front of all them reminded her of her time back in Telskyura.
"He insulted our Goddess" her calm tone only pissed of the Amazon even more.
"That doesn't mean you had to kill him!".
They both heard the female Renard sigh.
"Stella" she called out to her friend "Bring him back".
Those words confused the everyone, and the woman, now known as Stella, was reluctant.
"But-".
"You don't want captain to be mad at you, right?" She cut her off with a tone similar to a mother scolding her child.
"That's not fair" she said as she kneeled down and touched the dead mans forehead.
"Return to this life where your mortal body is bound, αναστήστε" she chanted and stood up before walking out of the pub.
A few moments later, the man woke up, desperately gasping for air.
Everyone, especially the Loki Familia, that the same woman that killed the man had resurrected him with relative ease.
The female Renard sighed before placing a 3 bags of valis on the table.
"These are the payments for the food and for the trouble we have caused this fine establishment" she bowed before exiting the pub
The giant armored guy was the first to follow, then the male Renard, who mumbled something about arrogant dumbasses, and then the Elf, who mumbled a complaint about not getting her ale.
"Finn" Loki called out to the captain of her Familia with a surprisingly serious tone.
"I think I know what you're about to say" Finn was holding his thumb, which was still in pain, telling him that this might not be their last encounter with those strange people.
The night continued on, but every adventurer there was still taking in the fact that someone had died, but was resurrected in front of them.
Riveria noticed one thing though.
Throughout that whole ordeal, the Elf and Armored man kept glancing at them every now and then, but decided to hold on to that information for now to not ruin the little happy mood that Tiona managed to dig out
~5 days later~
"Are you sure you'll be fine on your own, Bell-Kun?" Hestia asked her bedridden child "It's been a week since you got this fever, I can always just skip this Denatus you know".
"I'll be fine Goddess, the invite said that every deity was required to attend right? Beside, it's only for a few hours so it's not like I'll die" he joked before snuggling into his pillow.
"Fine, I'll make sure to bring you something from the banquet" she told him as she pat his head.
"M'kay" was the short reply of the obviously asleep albino.
After the short goddess went down to the entrance of their home, the smith of their Familia couldn't help but ask.
"Is Bell gonna be alright?" this was expected, considering their time together, Welf had become something of an older brother to Bell.
"Yes, he took his medication and is asleep, with any luck, Bell-Kun should be up and about in a few days" the others were somewhat satisfied with that and they started to travel to where the venue was being held, The Ganesha Familia home.
As they left, a soft wind came through Bells room, the chill making him open his eyes.
When he did, he saw something beside his window, and weakly stood up to see what it was, and saw a small vial with purple liquid in it, a suit, and a note.
After reading it's contents, he just chuckled.
"Well, I definitely need to apologize to Lady Hestia after this" he drank the liquid in the vial, and felt his strength return to him and smiled towards the stars.
~Few Hours later~
"I AM... GANESHA!" the loud god introduced himself in the only way he could... loud, which forced some of the other gods and children to cover their ears.
Looking around, Hestia found her friends and went up to them.
Takemikazuchi was with Ouka and Chigusa, Miach was with Naaza, and Hephaestus was with Tsubaki and a dwarf.
"Yo, Hestia, Is Bell still not well?" Miach worriedly asked his friend.
"No, but the medicine Naaza-san made for him is working wonders".
"Yahoo!" the troublesome god, Hermes joined them alongside Asfi and an elf from his Familia.
"Tsk, go away Hermes!" Hestia shoo'd him away.
"We're still angry about 'that' incident you know" Lily huffed.
"Relax, it was all to help Bell" before Hestia could say any more, the other gods gasped, curious as to what was going on, Hestia and the others looked over to the entrance of the venue to see a beautiful dark haired Goddess, with 7 of her children, 5 of which, were recognized by a certain Familia.
Loki, alongside her executives and Lefiya, were among the crowd and saw the newcomers.
"What the Hel?!" she said and Finn couldn't help but notice her panic.
"What's up Loki?" Finn asked, though his thumb was aching again, but he concluded that it was because of the presence of the strange but powerful individuals from a few days ago.
"Because that Goddess over there, is Nyx".
Her children were slightly confused but Tiona pointed something out.
"Hey, those 2 weren't there that day right?".
Of course, the 2 she was speaking of, was the red haired girl, and the weird hooded guy.
Hermes, being the dumbest in the room, approached.
"Hey hey, Nyx!" his captain beside him just facepalmed.
"It's been a while, Hermes" her arms went to his cheeks and she pulled him down to kiss his forehead.
"I hope you've been a good boy" he noticed that she emphasized the words 'good boy' and couldn't help but feel like he was about to get punished.
Loki was the second to walk forward, along with her children.
"Yo, Nyx" Loki waved at her.
"Hello, Loki" Nyx took a second to look at what Loki was wearing.
"You're a woman aren't you? You should wear dresses more often" she meant well but Loki couldn't help but feel like that was a jab at her non-existent chest.
"That's impossible, Lady Nyx" the Elf said beside her.
"If she were a woman, she would have a bigger chest" the male Renard said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world.
A tick mark grew on Loki's forehead, and while Riveria and the rest of the executives would have normally taken amusement at that jab, they were still wary of the danger in front of them, but their thoughts came to a halt when they heard a familiar voice.
"Sorry I'm late".
Hestia was surprised, seeing as her supposedly bedridden child was wearing a white suit that matched his hair with black gloves and white shoes, but was more shocked at what happened next.
"CAPTAIN!" the blue haired Elf excitedly hugged him, as if she hadn't seen him in years.
"Hey, Yuuki" he gave her a loving smile before her lips invaded his.
Nyx walked over and smiled.
Bell noticed her and smiles back.
"Hello, Lady Nyx" he pulled away from Yuuki and gave a small bow to the Goddess.
"Welcome back, my Child".
Finally getting out of the shock at not only seeing her child, her lovely innocent child, getting tackled and kissed, and then the not so little reveal Nyx gave, along side the Prum next to her, they couldn't help but yell out.
"BELL-KUN/SAMA?!".
Published: March 13, 2022
Hey, here's the update, It was a little rushed at the end but I think I did well
And for those wondering, the children of Nyx are wearing the same outfit from the Oc introduction chapters. Why? Cuz I don't know names of clothes and would most likely give them the same outfits but different colors
The next chapter might take a while, but it will be the unexpected (or expected) reveal
Anyway, hope you enjoyed it, feel free to tell me about any mistakes I made and Bye
Edit: Almost forgot but 'αναστήστε' means 'Resurrect' in Greek
