3rd person pov (makes it easier to do the reactions)
The Astraea familia looked over at their goddess in shock. Bell was a Leywin. How could she keep something like that from them?
"Lady Astraea how could you keep a secret this big from us," Alise asked.
"I mean. A Leywin. Hiding here in Orario when the last one was thought to have died against the dragon" Lyra muttered.
"It sure explains a lot. The talent in magic. The talent for fighting. It was all there" Ryu said.
"Was Bell pretending the whole time lord Miach? Was he just pretending to be our friend? Or acting like how he thinks a boy his age should" Alise asked.
"And this is why we didn't tell you," Astraea said. Her familia looked over at her. "Look at how you're reacting. Bell has been nothing if not genuine with you this whole time. Why doubt him now that you know his last name"
"Because he lied to our faces for months how did you expect us to react," Ryu said.
"Ahhh!" They heard Bell yell. They quickly turned their heads towards the divine mirror just in time to hear the stranger talk.
"Ah, the screams are always the best part. But I'm here to have a chat. We have so much to talk about. Grandson of Zeus"
"Shit" Miach muttered.
The Astraea familia didn't react this time as their eyes were glued to the divine mirror. Watching as a purple spike went deeper and deeper into Bell's shoulder. They all felt a modicum of regret at that moment. It wouldn't last for long however as the next bit of information came out.

"Allen dear your mouth is open" Freya teased. Allen closed his mouth and shook his head.
"It all makes sense. He was able to save us because he was a Leywin. Had he been any other kid he would've been killed. Fuck" Allen muttered. His hands held his head as he shook it.
"Allen dear are you ok," Freya asked a hint of worry in her voice. "I-I don't know lady Freya. It's a lot to take in. I'm just now realizing if it was any other kid. I never would've made it out of that cage"
Freya could see Allen trembling slightly so she called him over and wrapped him in a hug. "There there my child. You're safe. You are no longer in that cage and you will never be put in one again" Freya cooed. Allen calmed down a little. Until they heard a yell come from the divine mirror.
"Ah, the screams are always the best part. But I'm here to have a chat. We have so much to talk about. Grandson of Zeus"
"Hmm, it seems I have made a miscalculation. I was so enamored that I simply forgot that his father was a part of the Zeus familia. Never mind that though. I'll get him eventually" Freya thought.

"Oh now I know why he didn't want to train with Ais," Loki said her voice serious yet devoid of any emotion.
"It certainly does explain everything we've seen so far" Finn added.
"Hey what's going on? What's with all the gloominess? So what if he's a Leywin it's not like he's different. Still, a cocky brat is what he is" Bete said.
"The last Leywin was a part of the Zeus familia," Gareth said.
"And we banished them along with Hera once they lost to the dragon" Riveria added.
The other executives turned to face Loki to see if it was true. "Yeah, it's true. Ais he declined your training because you're a part of my familia"
"And I guess he's holding a grudge" Bete tsked.
"Well after this is over let's talk with him. No reason we can't be civilized about this" Finn said.
Before anyone could respond they heard a yell and turned their attention back to the mirror. They saw a spike through Bell's shoulder and a figure standing over top of him.
"Ah, the screams are always the best part. But I'm here to have a chat. We have so much to talk about. Grandson of Zeus"
"Things just got more complicated" Loki muttered.

"H-how do you know that" Bell stuttered out through the pain.
"I know everything about you boy wonder. Hmm, should I call you that? It was Arthur's name. But you are his great-grandson. Hmm, what to do? What to do" the man muttered. He then snapped his fingers.
"Oh I know let me introduce myself. You may have read about me but not know what I look like. Names Uto. Ring a Bell? Ha see what I did there" Uto joked.
"You killed Alea Triscan"
"Oh her. Yeah, I remember her. Both her legs gone as well as her eyes and one of her arms. Yeah I had fun with her"
"You're an evil bastard" Bell growled.
"Oh look at that puppy gots some bite. But you're right I am an evil bastard" Uto then flicked his finger up and another spike shot through Bell's leg causing him to yell again.
"But my lord forbid me from hurting you. Too much" he added. Bell tried to call Regis through their mental link but couldn't reach him.
"Oh don't bother trying to call your dog. He's a little busy with someone right now" Uto mocked.
"But enough about him let's talk about you. I did say I know everything about you but let me fact-check my information" Uto then sat down in front of Bell.
"Father died fighting the one-eyed black dragon. Mother died in childbirth. The first and only time you were ever held by her was in her dead arms. Grandfather is Zeus who used his Arcanum to save your life after your mana core suddenly started poisoning you. Oh, wait you don't even know how you were poisoned do you" Uto laughed.
Bell glared at him. "Oh if looks could kill I'd be dead. But get this I know how you were poisoned" he said in a sing-song voice. Bell's eyes widened.
"Remember when you were out hunting one time? You had just taken down this beautiful deer and as you were going home a spider bit you right on the neck"
Bell's eyes widened in shock. "Oh, you seem to know what I'm talking about. Well since you already figured it out. That spider was the one that poisoned you. And it was all planted by my lord who is rewarding me with years of long service by letting me have this talk with you" His face had a twisted smile as he spoke.
Bell started to struggle against the spikes. He wanted to break free. He wanted to fight. He wanted to kill. But then another one shot forth and impaled his other shoulder.
"Ah ah ah no moving we're having a chat. Now where was I" he snapped his fingers "Oh yes your grandpa. Or as he was more commonly referred to as Zeus. Now, boy Zeus used his arcanum today to save you but that's not the only thing he did. He also erased Regis from everyone's memories before you came to Orario"
Bell looked at him shocked and with wide eyes. "What you didn't figure that out. Regis was here during the height of the Zeus familia and you didn't ask why no one recognized him. Silly boy"
"SHUT UP!" Bell yelled yanking himself forward. But Uto just pushed him back with another spike.
"Wow for the nephew of the silence you sure are loud" Uto taunted. The people of Orario felt a chill run down their spine.
"Ah yes, the sickly aunt. Trained you and then left you like everyone else in your life has and will. Face it boy the path you're on. You'll end up alone" Uto taunted.
Bell was quiet for a moment looking at the ground his hair covering his eyes. "I don't care" Bell growled. This surprised Uto.
"Oh, you don't care. Yet isn't your biggest fear ending up alone? You're lying about one of them" Uto taunted.
"I don't care. As long as my family is safe. I don't care" Bell's eyes then shot up and glared at Uto.
"Oh, but you will. Just think everyone in Orario knows your secrets now and I mean everyone. How do you think they'll treat you after the fact that your aunt murdered dozens all for the sake of making new heroes"
"Yeah, I know. For all her intelligence she wasn't that smart. I mean that's just a stupid idea. Would've been easier for her to train them instead of becoming a terrorist"
"Oh? You're not defending your aunt's actions. But I thought she was family"
"Oh please. Alfia was my aunt sure. But she rarely showed affection. Hell, she was more of a babysitter than anything. Always training this or training that. Always talking about how she wants to gouge my eyes out cause they're my fathers. Or if we were too loud she'd threaten to blow up the house. Of course, she never would not with Regis around. But even after all that in the end she was still my aunt. Still my family and the closest thing I will ever have to a mother"
"Oh how touching. Makes me wanna puke"
Before Uto could say more a man appears behind him. He was handsome, with smooth skin and a sharp jaw. He has vibrantly scarlet eyes and massive horns sprouting from the sides of his black hair like an elk's antlers, except shiny and black, each coming to a spear-sharp point. His horns have several gold and silver rings wrapped around the many prongs, and bejeweled chains also trace the lines of the horns.
"Hmm seems you beat my monster hoard. However, I do ask that you not hurt my servant. He has been quite good as of late" the man softly said.
Uto stepped out of the way so Bell could see him better. He saw the man blocking a sword strike that was aimed at Uto's neck with just his pinky. The blue-haired woman holding it looked shocked and afraid. He had come out of nowhere. Bell recognized the woman as Shakti Varma captain of the Ganesha familia.
"Come Uto the lessers will be arriving soon and I do not wish to fight them" He then turned to look at Bell. Bell stared back but he could feel the power rolling off him in waves. This man-made Bell feel like an ant.
"Hmm. For a descendant, I have to say you're not too disappointing. However, remember this day as the day I deemed you too inconsequential to my plans to kill. Now come along Uto we have work to do" he said.
He then flicked Shakti back and opened a teleportation gate. When he started walking through that's when Bell realized who he was.
"Agrona" Bell said. He saw the man turn around and smile. "Correct" The gate then closed and the two disappeared.
"Bell! Bell!" Regis yelled. Bell turned his head to face him.
"Guessing you got held up," Bell asked.
"I'm so sorry Bell. Agrona was next to me I couldn't do anything" Regis said his voice full of regret.
"It's fine Regis. I'm ok. Just cats out of the bag now" Bell weakly chuckled.
"You don't mean-
"Yup whole city knows who raised me now" Bell grunted.
"Fuck. What do you want to do now"
"Face it head-on. With my family"
Oh my god, what a chapter. Uto revealed all of Bell's secrets and revealed that it was Agrona that caused Zeus to be sent back to heaven. Regis was erased from everyone's memories including gods and goddesses. Man Zeus was really looking out for Bell. Zeus also did a few other things when he used his arcanum but those are a secret for now. Anyway, I wonder how the Astraea familia will react to Bell being Alfia's nephew.
Anyway later.
