As everyone was in high excitement, save Meteria, for the next episode, Bell and his friends were a little anxious for it. Mostly because of what Bell's family would do when they saw what happened. To be truthful, even Haruhime was excited to see because she had only heard about from the other's. Still, that didn't mean she wasn't worried about what happened to them. The only comfort she had was that they were perfectly fine now.
Zeus: Onward! Let's see their next adventure!
Bell was only a little embarrassed to have everyone witness what happened here. He would be more if it wasn't for Meteria clinging to him out of worry.
Bell: Mom, please!
Meteria: No! I'm making sure nothing else hurts my baby boy!
Rolan: (She should be more concerned with the girls instead of this movie screen.) Right, well you have fun with that Bell.
He got the show started once more and everyone saw the floor on screen darken once more.
Asfi: What's going on?
Hermes: The Dungeon is expressing its revulsion. It's trapped up inside with no way out. I'm wondering how his prayers are doing because I didn't agree to this.
Just as he said that, a giant black version of what many knew as Goliath had sprouted and fell through the crystal ceiling before crashing to the ground. It rose with its long white hair before roaring loudly for everyone to hear.
Hermes: It looks official. That's the Floor Boss.
In the audience...
Finn: What is that?
Gareth: That don't look like Goliath.
Rolan: That would be the calamity.
Meteria: It is?
Rolan: Yes and a powerful one. It's strength measures close to a Level 5.
Lefiya: But they don't have any First Classes down there! How are they going to fight it?!
Alfia: The most likely solution is to overwhelm it with numbers. There are plenty of people in Rivira to make a big enough army to face it.
Meteria: *Coping* So that means Bell didn't have to fight, right?
Those present didn't look at her and found other things to put their attention on.
Lili: Guys, look at this! *Pointing to the ground*
Welf: Isn't that the floor?
Lili: Yeah! Cool, right?!
Meteria: *Scared* Guys?
Hera: Meteria, I don't think we'll be that lucky...
The worried mother trembled in her seat as the scene played out.
On screen...
The monster roared out as other monsters swarmed the former safe zone. Bell and Ryuu watched from the cliff in the distance.
Bell: We have to go help them!
Ryuu: No. Think about this. What good would your help do?
His friends simply smiled at him when he looked at each of them.
Bell: We're going.
Ryuu: I can't say anything about your leading skills, but you aren't wrong here. *Smiling*
Bell: Chigusa, protect the goddess. Everyone else, let's go!
They all ran off as Hestia gave them a blessing.
Hestia: (Be safe, everyone.)
In the audience...
Zeus: Good. You made the right choice, Bell.
Bell: I wasn't about to sit around and do nothing.
Zald: It's an adventurers job to slay monsters anyway.
Bell: Right!
Meteria grumbled angrily at that. Off to the side, Ais and her Familia were in shock at what they were seeing.
Loki: How the hell could this have happened?
Ouranos: Because of us gods. The Dungeon despises our powers. Hestia releasing hers caused this to happen.
Bete: How'd we never hear of this?
Fels: The Guild placed a gag order on everyone present on that day. No one apart from them would know about it.
Ais: *Heartbroken* (I wasn't here for this either. I'm so sorry, Bell.)
Aria: Sweetie, don't be so upset. How could you have known this would happen?
Ais: I-I...
Albert: Ais, we can't do anything about it now.
Ais: But Dad...
Albert: The past is the past. The boy is fine now, so you may as well just enjoy the show and watch him.
Tiona: He's right, Ais. Let's just enjoy Argonaut become a hero.
As sad as she was for not being there for him again, she would try to enjoy seeing Bell's growth firsthand. On screen, the other adventurers were caught off guard by the boss and other monsters. Mord's group was being thrown around.
Mord: Agh! What the hell?!
A group of minotaurs was about to strike him down, but an arm was sliced off of it. Mord saw Bell was the one to save him before Lili dragged him to a safer distance.
Lili: Lili has to make sure you don't get in his way!
*Thud*
Lili: You should be grateful. You deserve a lot worse. *Sticks her tongue at him
Meteria: You should've shot him with an arrow before leaving!
Lili: What?
Bell: Mom!
Alfia and Hera: (Now you know why she's scary.) *Trembling*
She ran to help support the others while the screen shifted to Bors and Asfi.
Bors: What's going on out there?!
Asfi: Bors! Gather everyone in the city! We're stopping that thing!
Bors: Are you nuts?! Just look at it!
Asfi: There's no choice. All the other escape paths are cut off.
Bors: *Grunts* Hehe... damn. Listen up, everyone! Looks like we're fighting afterall! Round up all the adventurers in town. If you run off on us, don't bother coming back here! Now, let's show that thing what adventurers can do!
The adventurers gathered their gear and grouped up with the two at the entrance.
In the audience...
Argo: At last, the final battle!
Feena: Brother, they already said those people were outmatched.
Yuri: How much exactly? Someone already said everyone would've have died in a different world.
Rolan: There were only 2 Level 4s there. It had some long ranged attacks along with other abilities I'll leave for everyone to see for themselves. This would become a battle of attrition they likely would not have won.
Riveria: It would have been a great loss.
Zeus: Good thing my boy was there. With all the support he has, that monster wouldn't stand a chance.
Meteria: At least Bell wins. So, nothing bad happens to him. *Confident*
Ouka and Bell sweated when she said that. Her confidence faltered again, but she couldn't ask before her attention went back to the screen.
On screen...
Ryuu and the others could be seen fighting the boss. She was able to bring it to its knees before the others could go in and attack as well.
Alise: Yes! An opening!
Ryuu: It's not going to be that easy.
Lyra: I figured that'd be the case.
They saw Mikoto and Ouka try to attack, but found that their weapons were caught in the monster's hide.
Ryuu: Back off, quickly.
The two heeded her warning and let go of their weapons before something worse happened. That being the monster preparing a breath attack.
Ouka: Watch out! *Getting in front of her*
Welf: Will O' Wisp!
Welf jumped in and used gis magic to disrupt the monster and protect the two.
Zald: Quick thinking, young man. Well done.
Welf grinned at him before turning back to the screen. He knew very well that the fight was far from over. On screen, the Monster groaned before preparing another blast attack. Ryuu noticed this and threw a blow to its face to disrupt it again.
Anya: Nya! Ryuu is cooking!
Lunoire: I guess this is what everyone meant when they came back.
Mia: To be honest, it definitely would've been interesting if I could have a crack at that thing. Oh well, the elf and the bunny boy have it taken care of.
On screen...
Welf: Thanks!
He left to regroup with the others as Ryuu thought about the situation everyone was in.
Ryuu: (This isn't an ordinary Floor Boss. It could be even Level 5.)
She dodged another attack before she met with Asfi who had an update for her.
Asfi: We have reinforcements. The mages in Rivira are chanting as we speak. You just have to stall for time.
Ryuu: I understand. Let's work together and divide its attention.
Asfi: Okay, but what do you have in mind?
Her answer from the elf was Ryuu continuing to run away leaving the blue haired princess to contend with the Goliath. In the audience, many couldn't help but laugh at that.
Hera: Oh, poor girl, hahaha!
Zeus: You gotta treat your girl better than that, Hermes!
Hermes: Of course I do. She gets free lunch.
Asfi herself was blushing at the attention she got on screen.
Bors: All right! We have Andromeda buying us some time, so let's put it to use! Get those spells ready!
The mages got to work while Asfi ran for dear life.
Asfi: I'll remember this! *Evasive maneuvers*
As she did this, the other adventurers used other long ranged methods to deal some damage. Some where in the trees firing arrows while other siege machines were thrown in. There were even some getting close and personal.
Argo: They're going all out here.
Feena: Yeah, but they aren't making much progress.
Ryulu: Better hope those spells work.
Bell noticed his mother praying for that to be the case. He felt slightly guilty about the truth but decided to keep it to himself for now.
Bors: Keep going! The mages still need time to- hm?!
He noticed the boss firing a blast to him which he used a shield to block. The was some damage to it, but he was more concerned with the mages.
Artemis: He could get up after that?
Rolan: That man has certain perks. I could even say that a god has blessed him with certain gifts.
Bell: Gifts?
Rolan: Divine luck, but it's just my speculation. Don't worry about it.
On screen, Bors looked to the mages and saw the dwarves were able to protect them.
Bors: *Grinning* Perfect. We scrapped this army together at the last minute, so there's no time to strategize. If you break your weapon, just grab another. Stay out of each other's way and fight like hell!
The adventurers on screen roared and fought on while the people in the audience admired their courage. Though, some people had different thoughts about how they saw their elf in the previous panel.
Alise: Alright, you liked a little scary there, Lion.
Ryuu: H-Hey! I'm not that bad!
Kaguya: Tell that to your kids.
She pointed to her two half-elf daughters who were clinging together and trembling in fear. They had their eyes shut tight and mumbled to themselves quietly.
Alise(Emb): *Scared* I'll be a good girl... I'll be a good girl...
Ardi(Emb): *Trembling*
On screen...
Welf had cut down another monster before noticing an adventurer trip and be vulnerable near the boss. He would have been dead had it now been for Bell grabbing him and bringing him to safety.
In the audience...
Hestia: *Sigh* Why am I not surprised?
Lili: It's just like Master Bell to do that.
Bell: *Embarrased* Come on, guys.
On screen...
Welf: Bell!
The boy jumped and threw the adventurer to Welf before be slashed around the boss' leg. It roared in pain before Bors gave the others the signal.
Bors: Incoming! Everyone, take cover!
He held his shield before the barrier behind him went down and the mages launched their spells. Meteria was practically praying on her knees for this to end it.
Bors: Go!
Spell after spell hit the Floor Boss as it roared louder. Its body was smoking and most of its face had been birned off showing bone. It fell to its knees as Bors signaled everyone to finish it.
Meteria: Yes!
Bors: Alright, now let's finish this!
The others ran to end this before Ryuu and them stopped short.
Ryuu: Oh no!
The monster quickly began to rise back to its feet. A red glow surrounded it as its face suddenly regret and uts previous wounds disappeared.
Meteria: NOOOOO!!!
Asfi: Regeneration?
With the Xenos...
Lyd: It healed itself so fast! Even I can't do that!
Wiene: I'm worried about them.
Ray: We all are, but we should believe in Mr. Bell and the others.
Asterius: Could I have those abilities too?
Rolan: Who knows?
The now healed monster slammed the ground and scattered much of the people there. Bell got back to his feet first and stared at the monster before the fighting resumed. Meteria clung back to Bell as everyone kept watching. On screen, Bell cut down another monster before Ryuu and Asfi backed him up and gave him an update on the situation.
Ryuu: Mr. Cranel.
Bell: Miss Ryuu.
Ryuu: You help the others deal with the other monsters. We will deal with Goliath.
Bell: What?
Ryuu: Things will get worse if we give up any ground here. The mages will be able to cast their spells again if we can stall for more time. If that doesn't work, then we'll just have to keep trying.
Bell: Miss Ryuu-
Ryuu: Good luck.
She and Asfi ran off and Bell was left to follow through with the plan. He looked around and saw everyone fighting their hardest. He gripped his knife and his skill unconsciously activated.
In the audience...
Lyd: Bellchi has a tough road ahead of him.
Gros: Hmph! It makes no difference here. The boy is more than capable of handling himself.
Ray: That's... rather nice of you to say.
Gros: We've all seen him go through worse. We can see how he came to be the person we know today.
Marie: He'll kick that thing's butt for sure!
On screen...
Lili came back to the camp with Hestia to give the next command.
Lili: Lady Hestia!
Hestia: Lili!
Lili: We have to go back to town and get the rest of our supplies!
The goddess nodded and asked some of the adventurers there for their assistance. Lili wondered where Chigusa went but Hestia informed her that she was likely with Ouka. The prum looked around and saw something wrapped in a cloth with the Loki Familia emblem on it.
In the audience...
Riveria: Ais, isn't that?
Ais: I think so. They used it?
Loki: What?
Riveria: That's the Sword drop she got after killing Udaeus.
Bell: (It was?!)
The others were wondering why it was so important, but Rolan smiled to himself as the show went on.
On screen...
Ryuu and Asfi were doing what they could to stall the boss. The elf had narrowly dodged another blow from the monster.
Asfi: Careful! One wrong move and you'll die!
Ryuu jumped into the air and drove her sword down across the monster's chest, leaving an open gash that quickly began healing as soon as it was opened.
Ryuu: (This is going to take everything we have.)
Asfi: Don't bother with the magic stone! We won't make it at this rate!
Ryuu: (As well as the full extent of our desires.)
The Goliath then fired a barrage of blasts that disorganized the adventurers there once more. They screamed as they tried to avoid getting hit. Ouka dodged a blast but a mage near him wasn't so lucky. He grunted before Chigusa found him.
Chigusa: Ouka!
Ouka: Chigusa! My shield!
Chigusa: No! You'll die!
She grabbed his sleeve.
Chigusa: I can't let that happen.
Ouka: Listen, I refuse to be a man who's all talk. If they are out there risking their lives, then I will as well. Got it?!
He kept his gaze on her firm but managed a soft smile to reassure her. In the audience, the two blushed and looked away from each other in embarrassment.
Hestia: Aw, you two are just adorable!
Chigusa: Goddess Hestia!
Take: I'm sure these two would make a fine couple in the future.
Masako: I can vouche for that.
Take and Mikoto laughed while Chigusa did her best go try and disappear. As cuddly as this got, things got serious again when Bell was seen charging another Argonaut.
Zald: Looks like he's taking his turn.
Meteria: *Praying* Please!
Everyone watched to see how this attack would change things.
On screen...
Ryuu heard the bells ringing and turned to him.
Ryuu: Mr. Cranel!
Asfi: Miss Lion, we have to pull back!
The two jumped out of the way as Bell fired back against the monster.
Goliath: RROOOOOAAAAAA!!!
Bell: Firebolt!
His spell clashed against the monster's attack that blew off the top of its head.
In the audience...
Meteria: *Tears of joy* YES!!!
Haruhime: It's over?
Bell and the others sweatdropped from their reactions since they knew how the rest played out.
Artemis: Orion? What's wrong?
Bell: Ah- um... *nervous* you see...
Elpis: Do we have to tell them?
Rolan: You all have the right to remain silent.
They took that gladly while the worried mother and goddess bit their nails and watched.
Alfia: I highly doubt this it over.
Meteria: But it doesn't have a head!
On screen...
The monster stood in place before the Lower half of its face smiled and fired another blast towards Bell.
Ryuu: Bell! Get out of there!
*BOOOM*
Bell: AAAHH!!
It's head regret and it swung its hand at Bell which caused many to gasp in shock at what they saw. On screen, they also saw Ouka jump in front of Bell at the last second and take the brunt of the attack with his shield. The boss was not hindered at all and sent them both flying.
Ryuu: *Gasps*
Hestia: What?!
Welf: Dear gods... no... DAAAAMN IIITT!!!
In the audience...
Thud*
Hera: Meteria!
The poor mother fainted after seeing her boy get sent flying. Bell felt guilty for worrying everyone like that. Although, he soon felt different when Eina walked to him and grabbed his collar.
Eina: WHY?! WHY DID YOU HAVE TO FIGHT THAT THING?! THIS IS WHY I SAY TI NEVER GO ON ADVENTURES!!!
Bell: B-But I'm here now and we won...
Eina: That doesn't change how I feel from what I saw!
She weakly tapped her forehead on his chest before sobbing.
Eina: *sob* idiot...
The half-elf wasn't his only problem as he turned to his side and saw Artemis pouting at him with tears in her eyes.
Artemis: Why do you always have to worry me like that?
Bell: Sorry...
On screen...
The screen cut to show the others tending to Bell and Ouka. Both of them were bandaged and badly hurt.
Mikoto: Sir Ouka! Sir Ouka!
Ryuu: Say something, Mr. Cranel.
She grimaced at the unresponsive rabbit. She and Asfi turned away when they heard the sound of metal hitting the ground. There, they saw Hestia and Lili.
Lili: Master Bell!
Hestia: He'll be ok, right?
Ryuu: He's hurt bad, but still breathing.
Asfi: Leave everything to us!
Mikoto: Please take care of things here, Chigusa.
Hestia walked to Bell and placed her hand on his cheek.
Loki: Seriously?! Even now, you're trying to force yourself on him?! You're as bad as Freya!
Hestia: Hey, it isn't like that! At least I'm not singing in my head for something I lost!
Loki turned to Freya who had her eyes closed and her hands together, praying.
Freya: *Singing about her horny* (This bedroom's not the saaaame without youuuu~)
With Ais...
The blonde was currently being lectured by her tiny half.
Mini Ais: This is why we shouldn't leave Mr. Rabbit anymore!
Ais: What if I join Bell's Familia?
Riveria: Hm?
Lefiya: Huh?
Loki: YOU WHAT?!
Tiona: Ais...
Ais: Oh, I'm sorry. It just hurts seeing I wasn't able to help him there.
Tiona: I get it, but there are other ways you helped. I mean, you did train him.
Finn: She's right. Besides my thumb is still throbbing, so we can't count him out just yet.
On screen...
Hestia: You need to go back. Buy as much time as you can. When Bell wakes up, he's going to beat that monster and save everyone.
Ryuu: Goddess Hestia...
The tiny goddess pulled her face up and looked at Ryuu with positivity.
Hestia: You've seen him fight before. I know you know that he has what it takes. He can win.
Ryuu: Understood. *Smiles*
Hestia: Please, Bell, wake up. Everyone is out there putting their lives on the line to fight that thing. You need to get up and join them. I know you can save us. Wake up! We're counting on you!
She kept holding his hand while Bell was going through something else in his mind.
Bell: (Goddess, I know! I can hear you and see, but I can't! My body won't listen to me! Come on, Bell! You have to keep fighting!)
Everyone watching was amazed by his strength.
Zeus: Hah! Even unconscious, Bell is ready to keep fighting!
Meteria: *Waking up* Huh? Wha-
Hera: Thank goodness you're awake!
Meteria: What happened to my baby?
Alfia: He's still unconscious, but he's fighting to wake up.
The mother saw her hurt son and she flew into a rage before Alfia had to restrain her.
Alfia: Sister!
Meteria: *Blind rage* I WILL CUT THAT MONSTER INTO TINY PIECES AND BURN IT FOR HURTING MY BABY!!!
The others flinched in terror at seeing the scary mother. Bell himself wondered if he would survive his childhood with her like that. He mentally gave his prayers to other Bells who got to live with her. They would need every blessing to be safe from her anger.
With the Xenos...
Asterius: His fire is burning as bright as ever. Just what I should expect from him. *Grinning*
Ray: But how will he wake up?
Alulu: Kyuu!
Lyd: I feel like we'll find out soon.
Ilia: Come on, Bell. Hm?
She turned to her side and saw Epimetheus watching intently.
Ilia: Well, someone's eager.
Epimetheus: Since this is his first heroic act to be witnessed by a mass crowd, I wish to see it with full clarity.
On screen...
Hermes: Not just anyone can be a hero. It doesn't come from wielding some legendary sword or shield. Nor does it have anything to do with power or magic.
Zeus: Bell, a hero is one who chooses self sacrifice. He is the one to lose his life for his loved ones. You may get beaten, but don't lose heart. The tru victor will always rise up from the ashes.
Those in the audience were slightly shocked by this difference in their characters. Gone were the pervy men and here were prophets foretelling the rise of the next great hero.
Hera: Dear...
Zald: This isn't like them.
Zeus: We have our moments, right?
Hermes: Haha. Guilty.
Asfi: I want to trade for the serious, Lord Hermes.
On screen...
Hermes: Hold your wish tight.
Zeus: Cry out your desire.
Bell: If you do-
Zeus: Then you'll see-
Hermes: that's-
All three: What makes a hero shine the brightest!
After that, Bell's hand gripped back as her slowly regained consciousness.
In the audience...
Tiona: *Giddy* Ohhhh! Here it comes! I can feel it!
Finn: The true fight begins here. *Smirking*
Argo: Let's see what else he's got.
Bell could be seen wielding a strange looking sword that looked far too long to be wielded by a normal human. Though, Ais and Riveria knew very clearly what he was holding.
Riveria: So it is. He's using the sword you brought there, Ais.
Ais: That means!
Mini Ais: Yeah! We did help him!
The tiny girl jumped for joy at being able to provide some kind of assistance for her bunny.
On screen...
Bell: (I want to be strong in her eyes.)
An image of Ais flashed in his mind. The other girls had to put their jealousy away for a moment as this was a very important event.
Bell: (I want to protect all the people who've become important to me.)
And then all his friends appeared on screen before it showed Lili giving him the sword.
Lili: You're awake!
Hestia: (You can do it.)
He dragged the weapon with him as he kept walking toward the boss.
Zeus: [Let your feelings burn like fire! Cry out with all your desire!]
He remembered Zeus' words as he activated his skill once more. All around, the sound of a grand bell tolled. Everyone stopped when they heard it and saw the bright light in the distance.
Hestia: Limit off!
Alfia: He could do that too?
Zeus: *Pride* That's my boy!
Loki: *Crying tears of blood* Why couldn't he be with me!?
Meteria: Is it that powerful?
Rolan: Quite. He could turn fights around in an instant with it.
Meteria: Woah...
On screen...
Goliath: ROOAAAAARR!!!
The other monsters began to retreat from the area when they heard the bells. This made the other adventurers chase after them.
Mord: After them!
With Goliath, Ryuu began concurrent chanting as she fought.
Ryuu: In the sky of a now distant forest. Infinite stars scattered in the endless night sky. Respond to my foolish voice, give me the divine protection of starfire.
Asfi: She's trying to cast a spell now?
Those in the audience had to commend her for her skills in concurrent chanting.
Lefiya: She's amazing!
Riveria: You're lucky to have her, Goddess Astraea.
Astraea: *Giggle* I know.
On screen, Mikoto saw this and prepared her own spell.
Mikoto: I beseech you, god of war. Grant my feeble body your divine power.
As she chanted, Welf jumped through trees, looking for something.
Welf: This may be selfish, but I need to save someone! Please give me the strength to do it!
He spotted what he needed before the screen cut back to Ryuu and Asfi.
Ryuu: Come, vagabond winds...
Asfi: *Tapping the wings on her shoes* I better give it my all too.
The wings expanded in size as she took to the air. She flew in front of the boss' face and threw explosives in its eyes, blinding it temporarily. This let Ryuu get close and finish her spell.
Ryuu: Fill me with the light of stardust and strike. Luminous Wind!
A green glow enveloped her before green orbs of magic materialized and hammered down on the monster. It roared in pain and flailed its arms before grabbing Ryuu from the air.
Alise: Lion!
Before the monster could do more, Mikoto finished her spell as well.
Mikoto: Descend from heaven and rule the earth. Shinbu Tousei. Fustunomitama!
A bright purple sword descended on the boss as its body was being crushed by intensified gravity. This made it let go of Ryuu and allow for Asfi to grab her. Meanwhile, Mikoto's fingers started bleeding as the monster fought against her magic.
Ryuu: It's a sealing magic!
Mikoto: Gh!! Agh! I can't hold it!
*Shatter*
She was forced back before Welf jumped in with his refound weapon.
Welf: Out of the way! *Jumps* KAZUKI!!!
AN: I'm at least 50% convinced this could be a mistranslation or something close. I remember seeing it translate to Burning/Fire Moon, or Kastuki, but this may just be a different spelling. Someone can fact check that for me.
Welf swung the Sword as a blast of fire was shot out and proceeded to burn the Floor Boss with intense power. Those in the audience were amazed by the weapon, though, Alicia was still feeling quite upset at it. She felt some pleasure knowing it was used to fight a monster.
Ryuu: A Crozzo Magic Sword.
Asfi: Kazuki. It's even stronger than the originals.
Hephaestus: [Please, don't let your stubbornness put your friends at risk.]
Welf: (She's right. I was being stubborn. I'm... sorry.)
He began falling to the ground before Asfi caught him as well. Everyone was a bit worried seeing it getting up after all that. However, those were put to rest once the grand bells were heard once more. Bell could be seen glowing a bright white before the same light covered the weapon he was holding. He then charged forward as Hestia's voice echoed in his mind.
Hestia: [Whenever you find the odd all stacked against you, you can still win with all the power you have left. I call it a Hero Shot.]
The boy stopped in front of the monster and held the sword behind him. Everyone watched as he readied himself to deal the final blow.
Bell: HYAAAAAAA!!!
A bright light flashed and blinded everyone there as Bell swung. The boss roared in pain once more before the light died down. The sword crumbled away and they all watched in awe as they saw only the bottom half of the monster was left.
In the audience...
Alise: Holy crap!
Astraea: He's remarkable!
Finn: *Smiling sheepishly* So, he could do that to Level 5 monster at Level 2? I wonder what will be next?
Meteria: YES! HE DID IT!
Zeus: A wonderful shot, my boy!
Bell: *Blushing* T-Thanks.
Elpis: *Scoffs in Argo Vesta* I could do better.
Zald: Not to spoil the mood, but *Points to the screen.
They all saw the monster's body begin to try and regrow itself.
Tiona: Oh, come on!
Artemis: Even that wasn't enough?
She turned to Bell when she felt his hand on her.
Bell: Don't worry about that. *Smiling*
On screen...
Ryuu: It's happening again.
Welf: Damn it! No!
Hestia: (Bell is different now.)
The boy grabbed his knife once more and rushed down the crater the monster was now in.
Hestia: (He's faster and stronger. He can leap even higher!)
Bell: AAAAAAAAAAHHH!!!
He stabbed the crystal with his knife before twisting it. This split it and finally ended the fight as the monster exploded into dust.
In the audience...
Meteria: *Tears of joy* It's over! It's finally over! My precious boy is safe at last!
Bell: M-Mom!
She clung to her son and cried while the others congratulated the rabbit.
Alfia: Well done, Bell.
Zald: She's right! You did a fine job!
Elpis: What about me?!
Hera: Yes yes, he couldn't have done it without you too, Elpis.
Elpis: *Smirking* Hmph! Of course not. He needed my supreme power to beat that monster. It was obvious the sword that silly princess left behind wasn't going to be enough.
Snap*
They felt the angry aura from Ais and Mini Ais as they pouted at the Artemis copy and glared at her in anger.
Alise: All's well that ends well, right?
Ryuu: Certainly.
Lyra: You did great too, Lion.
Neze: Yeah, you put in a lot of work!
Ryuu: Thank you, girls.
Kaguya: That should be expected since you did do it to help your boyfriend. *Smirking*
Poof*
Ryuu: *Blushing* KAGUYA!!!
The other girls laughed at her embarrassment. The boy made fine teasing material for their little sister, for now.
With Argo...
Argo: Yes! A marvelous end to this chapter! I must write this down in Mr journal!
Feena: You didn't get that back when we came here, brother!
Argo: Curses!
Orna: It was still a good show. *Smiles* Reminds me of the past when we had our own adventures together.
Crozzo: Those were the days.
Argo: Who says we can't do that here? We should do our best to make more memories here while we can!
Ryulu: *Laughs* Typical, but not wrong.
With the kids...
Celdia: You got that, right?
Karmi: Yup! It's all recorded! I can't wait to show the others!
Wendi: If they don't freak out and break it before they get to the end.
Wallace: I'm sure it'll be fine.
Eileen: Did you forget about my Mom?
Alise(Emb) and Ardi(Emb): And ours?
Karmi: Hm, that could be a problem.
With the Xenos...
Wiene: *Jumping around* He won! He won!
Lyd: Hahaha! That was great!
Ray: He was amazing.
Laura: Almost makes you fall in love with him again, right? *Smirking*
Ray: *Blushing* Yeah- I mean, NO! Laura!
Laura: Hahaha! You're blushing, Ray!
Ray: Mmmmmm...
On screen...
*Poof*
The red glow on the floor finally turned blue again as everyone cheered in victory. Bell just rested on the crystal before looking to Hestia and Lili.
Lili: You did it, Master Bell! You beat Goliath!
As Bell got up, the screen changed to Chigusa and Ouka, the former turning to the latter as she felt his hand grip hers. She looked at him in relief as he smirk at her before she jumped into his chest.
Mord: *Smirking* For a little rookie, he's not bad at all.
Meteria: Hmph! He has to do better than that!
Bell: Please give it time, Mom.
On screen...
The other adventurers surrounded the boy and congratulated him as Hermes monologed.
Hermes: Yes! I did it! I saw it! You were wrong about him, Zeus. You said he had no potential, but your grandson truly carries your blessing!
Bell: *Sad* You thought I had no potential, Grandpa?
Zeus: *Touching the ground* The texture on this carpet is remarkable!
Hermes: He's the last member of your Familia! Time is finally moving forward! I've always dreamed of being able to witness this! Today, in Orario, a new chapter in history begins! The future of these heroes in their lives and beyond their deaths. It is an epic about family made by our children! The Familia Myth!
The screen cut once more to show the tower of Babel before cutting to Bell's friends being relieved to see everyone return to the surface safe. Eina in particular couldn't contain herself and embraced the boy, to the other girls' jealousy. Next was Welf holding a shard of his broken sword to Hephaestus who gave him a smile. Then Freya could be seen watching everything from her tower before it showed everyone celebrating in the Hostess. The screen faded out as the final shots of everyone smiles were seen by everyone present.
Zeus: Well, that was quite the show!
Rolan: Who said it was over?
Hera: Huh?
The screen shifted once more to show Hestia giving a lap pillow to Bell before it blacked out a final time.
Rolan: *Smirking* Now it's over.
The other girls, blinded by a jealous rage, ran after Hestia who ran for her life.
Mini Ais: *Covered in war paint* ATTACK!!!
Hestia: AAAAAHH!!! *running*
One massive cat fight later...
Rolan: Now then, this concludes the first part of Bell's journey. However, we still have bit more to go.
Meteria: We do?
Rolan: Yes, but we should take a small break before we continue.
Meteria: At least I know my son won't be in any danger anymore.
The room was silent as she then started shuffling nervously.
Meteria: What?
Rolan: Seriously?
AN: And cut. (You can all skip to the next part as it's just me boasting and ranting.) I've done it. Today, I make history. I won't be counting the OA or the movie for the moment since they more or less lay a bit outside this range. Anyway, all of you may now bow before me, not really, but I now stand as the first person to write a full reaction of a complete piece of the Danmachi anime. I didn't stray from the path. I didn't just jump from major event to major event. I didn't have them react to only memes, raps or ships. (Raps are cringe, story is based.) I had them all react to a full season of the show. A FULL SEASON! 12 episodes plus some scenes from the manga! I won't say this is now the best Danmachi reaction story, but it is most definitely up there. I'm sorry about bragging like this, but I've earned these rights. I can't think of a single person who has gone this far for this series alone, so I'm enjoying myself for the moment.
Alright, with that out of the way, this concludes Season 1 of the anime. Holy crap, it's been a long time! I started this bit January and I'm only just finishing this in mid-December! I still have the OVA and Artemis Movie to go, but this is a big milestone for me.
As always, thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed. Feel free to tell me what you thought about it(The story, not my writing format. Yes, I'm putting this bit here because clowns who want to cry about me not writing in a traditional writing format can go fuck off with the other Tale of Genji fans. I know what my freedoms are and they let me write how I want.) and I'll see you in the next one!
