End of Legend and Beginnings of a Hero
Sounds of steel clashing with steel where heard as two warriors clash, Desolate wasteland surrounds them, red blood sky endlessly stretches' beyond the horizons yet these two warriors continued to fight, blade clash against blade the ground beneath them littered with slashes and cracks evident by the intensity of the battle.
A man with white hair nor dirtied clashes against another man with same hair, clothes tattered, wrinkles visible on both of their faces, How long since they began? How much longer? It didn't matter both men were born to fight, sword against sword clashed once more until both swords locked against each other.
"How long have we been fighting", says a warrior with red tattered coat, starring into the other warrior a smirk etched on his face
"I don't know... I've lost count" replied the other warrior with blackened coat his face void of emotion but deep down he was enjoying this. How long have its been? Days? Years? He lost count they have been down in hell for too long
Finally both swordsmen lowered their weapons and sat down contemplating what would they do next.
"This place get dull real quick after we killed all of the demons", laying back down starring at the never-ending red sky of hell.
The other one didn't reply only nodded, they have been down here for so many years, they have hunted everything that moves in this place, what's left in Hell is the two of them and nothing but battles can elevate their boredom.
"think Nero have grandkids already?", ask the red coated swordsman
"maybe", responded the other
"Since we can't go back How about it Vergil? One last fight" The red one standing up stretching the stiffness away and drawing his broadsword out
"hm, We never did broke our tie, even after all this years, come Dante let's end this... One last time", Vergil spoke back to his adversary drawing a Katana and throwing away the sheath. Getting into a stance once more
smiling Dante and Vergil would clash once more, flashes of their lives that led up to this point from that faithful night, their first battle in Temen' ni-gru, to Dante's meeting with Nero and their reunion to Vergil's redemption up to getting trapped in hell after severing the Qliphoth tree entrusting Nero to carry on the Legacy of Sparda, to hunting down every demon in hell have finally come to a close, drawing their last breath together swords plunged in each other's heart, and thus ended the legend of the sons of Sparda.
Warmth this was the feeling Vergil currently felt, simple warmth 'its nice', even if all he sees is darkness yet he felt warmth, then suddenly he saw light.
Opening his Eyes he saw a woman, pale hair with the bluest of eyes looking at him from above in what can only be described as pure joy,
'wha-, this is... peculiar' Vergil instantly figuring out his current status as he sees his pudgy baby arms
'and she must be my new mother, but... something strange she's getting weaker..' Noticed Vergil as he see's the woman whos holding him getting weaker weaker by the the second.
"Bell... I'm sorry.. I could feel my time is this world is waning.. I wish I could see you Grow up with my own eyes... I'm sorry I'm leaving you so soon, please forgive me.. and remember Bell I'll always love you... Zeus-sama please take care of him... Please raise him... It's my last... wish...", the woman gave put her last breath as she continued embracing her child to her chest.
"Meteria... I-... Alright... I promise to raise Him with all I know... I promise to make sure he grows up to be the person you want him be", Zeus solemnly spoke as he closed Meteria's eyes and took Bell from her arms.
"your very quiet little guy... umm.. how to do this..", Zeus not once any experience in taking care of kids let alone a newborn "I'll definitely keep my promise, Don't you worry Bell, I'll teach you all the secrets in picking up girls!" Zeus grinning before steeling his resolve as he put Bell down the crib
"But first I need to burry her body", Zeus picked up Meteria's Body and took her outside leaving Bell in the crib...Alone...
'...' Bell (Vergil) just twitched an eye before sighing 'I just got reincarnated and both parents are already dead must be a new record... what would Dante think' he mused Imagining his brother's reaction if he wake up like this, 'Wonder if Dante got Reincarnated as well...',
'this time I will live my life the way I want to', Bell (Vergil) resolving himself to not repeat the mistakes in his previous life.
'Hey there V Interesting place we found our selves in', a sudden annoying voice entered Bell's mind, his face instantly frowning.
10 years later
A boy was seen swinging a wooden sword over and over again in an open fields, having just finished his daily task in the farm, he choose to use his free time to train, swinging his wooden sword in a downward slash, left to right before repeating the action over and over again.
'this is so boring lil' V can't we do at least something interesting like practicing magic?', spoke a bird in Bell's mind as he trained, he didn't stop swinging his sword before responding.
'Hmph, one must master the foundations before standing at the pinnacle of technique', as he continued the same action not pausing for a moment.
'Hah!?, since when did you start getting philosophical!?, come on practice magic more I want to fly around more', insisted Griffon continuing to annoy Bell as much as possible.
Interesting things have happened since getting reincarnated, the first thing he noticed is the lack of any of his Demonic energy and yet his three nightmares exist within him, what Bell now have is magic power and his Familiars can manifest through it, no longer being nightmare Phantoms but as pseudo-magical spirits? Even Bell was not sure what have they become but ultimately they can manifest and actively kill so long as Vergil have enough Magic power to keep them manifested and fuel their attacks.
'Don't give me that, I trained my magic all day yesterday my body is still weak and I need to remedy that, I'm Human now I'm not as durable as before', spoke Bell without even stopping his training session.
'Yeeesh your still this stiff and edgy, that Zeus guy is right you need more pussy in your life', Griffon teased still trying to coax Vergil into switching his sword training into magic training.
This made Bell pause for the briefest of moments before sternly replying, 'Shut it', getting a better Idea and smirking.
"fine! if your this eager to come out then come!, Griffon!", Bell Extending his hand, black strands like wires came out and formed Griffon in all its birdly form
"nyahahahaha, fucking finally!", Griffon laughed as he flies around excitedly then looked back at Bell with a smirk etched on his face... a pretty deadly looking smirk
"h-h-hey V what's with that l-l-look?", Griffon Hesitantly ask.
"I still need to complete my training Griffon, and I will accomplish this one way or another", Bell says releasing the most intense killing Intent Griffon ever felt, without waiting any moment longer he disappeared from his position and faded in in front of griffon before delivering a downward slash wounding the bird,
"OWUUU, That Hurt you shitty brat, if that's how you like it, then come at me lil'V! HIYAA!", Griffon already regenerating from the wound let out a flurry lightning bolts towards Bell, seeing the attack Bell coated his woodden sword with a layer of magic and defended against the onslaught of lightning bolts, blocking each bolt with ease before flickering in front of the bird but Griffon has anticipated this move.
"nhahahaha, not this time!" Griffon blinked out of his original position in a swirl of distortion and flare of feathers before reappearing way above Bell's reach, "eat this! Nhahahaha" Griffon rained down 5 balls of lightning before shooting out two streams of lightning each, forming a pentagram that is swiftly converging to Bell's position
"how predictable", commented Bell as he simply jumped straight up avoiding the lightning streams and forming a thin layer of magical platform under his feet using is as a stepping stone before shooting up to Griffon with great speeds.
"w-w-w-wait lil' V, We can talk this out!", Griffon now panicking at the fast approaching Bell before dodging the last second and charging another attack, "nyahahah your wide open- Huh!?", only then he saw Bell's smirk never faded and a more glowy wooden sword than usual
"Down you go!", spinning his body along with the sword releasing a slash of magic energy directly cleaving Griffon in two while sending both halves crashing down, just in time for Bell to Gracefully land right after using his free hand to fix the collar of his shirt
"OW OW OW, IT FUCKING HURTS! What the hell V! Auuu!", screamed the halves of a bird slowly moving towards together,
"hnn, So long as I have enough Magic power your essentially Immortal, Now finish up healing I'm feeling a bit... M O T I V A T E D", Bell spoke in a monotonous voice before stepping away from the thunder bird awaiting for him to fully recover until a voice called out to them.
"why do you have to be so harsh on him Bell-kun", turning his head to side he sees Zeus approaching him,
"I think i was lenient enough", cooly replied sheathing his training sword bluish glow fading out,
"At this rate you'll won't get any girls if you keep up that attitude of yours", Zeus commented towards his grandson sighing in dissapointment as he might remain a virgin,
"yah! Tell him old man", Giffon finally reataching himself and perching behind Zeus,
"HAHaHA, at least your familar can understand me!", Zeus laugh, after a while Zeus turned to Bell
"Bell follow me I have something for you", Zeus directed Bell to follow him, Bell and Griffon looked at each other brifely before following after Zeus, Griffon flying into Bell's shoulder.
"come Bell, sit", Zeus directing Bell to a chair as he sited himself, "sigh... you've Grown up... faster than I can imagine... you didn't came out as I have hoped but oh well, Here take this", he then handed out a pouch
"This is?", taking a peek inside the pouch revealed to be a few thousands of Valis,
"I have have always knew I can't keep you here forever, since you where younger you always have this air of maturity and... Anticipation", pausing for a moment. "your talent can only be described as extraordinary even learning to use magic as such a young age, I knew then your meant for greater things and staying here will only hinder your growth", smiling at Bell.
"now go, pack what you need oh and... If you want a quick tryst visit Mertha, that girl have a huge crush on you ever since she saw you train", grinning like a perverted sage crossing his arms.
"Good Idea Old man, Lil'V here could use a little fun to fix that edgy look of his", Griffon Chimed in before Bell's clamped his beak silencing him flailing his wings.
Annoyed, Bell just ignored them and proceeded to pack his clothes and necessities. After about a few hours of readying bell stood at the door before giving Zeus a proper farewell
"Thank you Grandpa... and about that Harem... I'll consider it", then setting out in journey to reach the City of Adventurers.
"Hahahaha, thats my Boy!, Birdy make sure Bell keeps that promise!", zeus said suddenly revitalising and grinning like a true pervert.
"Sure thing Old man!", said Griffon as they turn around and walk away from the cabin they have been staying for the past 10 years oh their new lives, ready embark a new chapter of their journey.
Bell despite having the mentality of basically an old emo man, couldn't help but feel anticipation. Smiling to himself awaiting to experience a life he never had, a new beginning, a new purpose.
"so... we'll still Visiting Mertha right?", ask the bird which genuinely gave Bell a quick pause.
"...no", hesitantly said Bell pressing forward not wanting to think any more of it... his body might be more developed than what a 10 year old child maybe but there's no rush, time is by his side and his always been patient.
"what's that? Hesitation in your voice? I didn't know you had in you lil'V! Don't Be shy I know you want to". The Bird teasing Bell encouraging him to have fun for a change. With Bell's cheeks flushing at the jab.
"We will not speak any more of this, let's go!", Bell annoyed and impatient, he wanted to leave Imidiately before he could embarress himself any further 'foolish Hormones', grumbled Bell gathering half of his magic energy and injecting all of it into Griffon growing in the size until it macthes the size of a car, before mounting Griffon and settling in a comfortable spot.
"tsk, your no fun Lil'V", Griffon spreading his wings wide and taking off with his rider flying to the direction of Orario. This little trick made Griffon stronger physically but not much use as it doesn't affect his ability to cast lighting magic, blame Griffon's lack of creativity on that department, for Shadow and Nightmare however is but another tool at his disposal.
Days have gone by since Bell left his Grandfather's cabin, Bell on a journey contiuned walking along the road reaching the City of Orario. Having used up most of his magical power he couldn't maintain Griffon's upkeep to stay Manifested but even so they have cut down the travel time by a couple of months saving Bell a lot of money.
"name?" ask the guard by the gate as Bell walks up to him.
"Bell Cranel", Bell replied smoothly and swiftly cold eyes just starring at the guard,
"P-Purpose of visit?", slightly put-off by the cold unlfinching glare, unmoving, only... bliking, as Bell stared the guard observing him like prey.
"Permanent Residence... I intend to challenge the dungeon", again with the cool voice and the cold unflinching stare, that would almost see through your soul.
"I-I see, *cough* I suggest following this road until you reach the entrance to the market district, head north from there up to the Northwest main road you'll see the Guild headquarters, they can help you find a Familia to join"
"alright kid, that will be 3,000 Valis", the other guard finished registering his name to be recorded by the guild. The guards readying the documents for permanent residency.
"much.. appriaciated",Bell handed the payment to the guard while receiving his papers which he skimmed through it and put them away in his waist bag, without delay he walk passed the gate finally releasing his stare to the guard.
The guard let go of a breath his been holding unknowingly, what a strange kid.
'so what now lil'V? Going to the guild?', a familiar familar voice was heared in Bell's mind, Bell continued walking heading straight in the road.
'I wish to... test this Dungeon first... I'll head to the guild when I'm done', Bell responded to Griffon Inquiry not stopping already walked passed the market district His path never diverged.
'Didn't the Old man warned you about the dangers of the Dungeon? You said it yourself your a human now, and last I check Human bodies are fragile', Griffon advice Bell to rethink his decision.
'I know... I'll just have to retreat when need be', acknowledged Bell as he reached the entrance of the dungeon, feeling his own magical power have mostly recovered, he pressed on descending the stairs other people not minding him
"so this is the dungeon...",'According to... Grandp- Zeus the Dungeon constantly spawn monsters and stronger and stronger monsters spawn the deeper you descend, Gra- Zeus also said that specific floors spawn unique powerful monster labeled as 'boss' or monster Rex, either way will prove to be an interesting challenge', stepping the bottom of the stairs entering the first floor,
Nonchalantly walking throu the corridoors of the first floor a pack of 5 goblins spots him and charges, Bell meanwhile just summoned an simple looking etheral double edge blade and with one single swing evisirated the pack of goblins, leaving only tiny stones
Picking one up and examining the stone, feeling its very weak magic energy stored inside it before attempting to absorb the magic,
'hmm... the magic stone's magic energy is too... volatile for personal use but I wonder...', Extending his hand black sands that flows like the wind came out and formed a black panther with pulsing red veins,
"here" tossing the small stone into Shadow's mouth crunching it, then the red lines pulsated for a moment halting the upkeep requirement for a measly second,
'ho ho~, seems like a useful way to keep us longer in battle', mused Griffon seeing the potential in them eating the stones to absorb energy from aside form Bell's Magic power.
"the monsters here are weak, and feeble, lets move deeper maybe consuming larger stones from more powerful monsters would have a better effect". Having sated his curiosity he pressed on,
Bell made sure to use his Magic spareringly not wanting to exhaust himself, releasing Griffon or Shadow when too many monsters appear eating thier Magic stones to minimize using his own magic power to maintain them,
Bell dogged an incoming fist from a minatour after having arrived at the first floor of the middle floors, side stepping another attack before leaping up and slicing through its head with a mirage sword, then flickering behind a second minatour delivering a lethal stab to the heart before sending out shadow that charged at the last minatour turning into a spinning three pointed blade Bisecting the last minatour in half.
Shadow slowly walk back to his master before dissolving into his shadow, Bell assed the new monsters compared to the others he encountered so far they're more durable and stronger but still within the scope of Bell's... power...
'Think we should head back? You've been fighting for roughly 3 hours now, how much juice you have left in you?', Griffon ask worried about Bell running out of magic leaving him defenseless
"Hnn, this is enough for now, come back shadow", Bell feeling a bit drained followed Griffon's warning, shadow now returning inside Bell's body, before returning back to the surface.
The trip back was rather uneventful aside from a few adventures he passed by
"hey that kid's not wearing any armour or a weapon", generic extra Adventurer 1
"Huh? no weapon? Think his a mage? How else can he reach this deep without a weapon", generic extra Adventurer 2
"he doesn't have a staff either, you sure?", generic extra Adventurer 3
"what a strange kid, lets go... lets not concern ourselves with him", generic extra Adventurer 4
Ignoring all of them Bell made it back up the surface having learned much about the dungeon, his next visit he will attempt to go even deeper. Ariving outside he noticd the sky has already started to darken night time rapidly approaching, he'd have to find a place to stay for the night, his thaugts interupted by Griffon
'So lil'V, think of a Familia to join yet?, a God's falna would prove usefull, and you could gain more power'
'That would be... preferable I don't have any particular preferences, although I would like to work alone', replied Bell, after walking more for a bit his stomach growled.
'heh~, lil V's starving~, ever regret becoming human?', Spoke Griffon on Bell's hunger
'No, I do not... It's one of the... pleasures' of a human... able to enjoy eating food', Bell looking around the street for a place to eat.
Walking around some more he came across a empressive looking pub. Pack with people getting drunk and eating inside the tavern looking pub, he went inside.
"welcome nyaa~", A cat person with light brown hair greeted Bell, simply nodding to the energenic waitress, took a while to find a sit near the bar area. A few eyes looked at Bell not used to seeing a lone kid enter but somthing like this happen, and Bell looks around 13 for someone whos age just entered double digits. In Orario there is a thin line of what can be considered an adult and a child but in the end no one really cared.
"welcome to the Hostess of fertility kid, like seeing a new face once in a while, the name's Mia grande but my girls call me mama Mia", spoke a confident voice coming from a large woman behind the bar, "oi chloe take the kid's order", then a dark haired Cat person came over and grabbed a menu from the counter and made her way to Bell
"fufufu~, what a cute boy~, here see anything nyaa like?", leaning a bit too forward while handing him the menu. Bell took the menu and skimmed through it. Ignoring the teasing gaze the waitress pressing onto him by the side He could feel Griffon smirking inside but ignored it.
"some clam fritters to start, then a Beef roast, and... some wine of you please", smiling a little at the bold choice of drink making Mia laugh not expecting a child to order alcohol
"are you sure nyaa? Would you prefer some juice instead?" ask a pretty concerned Anya as she put down an order from another table
"you have guts kid!, Sure you can handle alcohol?", Smirked mama Mia pouring him a tankard of wine before handing the it to Chloe and serving the cup to Bell
Bell took the sweet aroma, swirled the wine a bit and took a sip. Taking in the sweet taste of berries and the melodelic alchohol.
"not bad for someone so young to not spit out ye' wine, but that shows nothing, ya' have to down the whole drink to convince me, tell you what if you can drink a whole bottle of this stuff I'll discount ye' drink", smiled Mama Mia chalenging Bell and to testing him to defend his claim all the while pulling out a different bottle of slightly more alchoholic wine and bringing out a 'slightly' bigger cup
"Is that a challenge?", Bell smirk while snacking on the clam fritters, expertly extracting the clam meat with nothing more than a pair of chopsticks,
"Ha ha ha!, I like that spunk you have kid' see if you can back it up", personally placing the huge tankard full of a more alcoholic wine in front of him, looking at him with challenging eyes,
Bell just shrugged and took the whole thing like a champ chugging all the wine without stopping, the crowd gathered to see a brat chugging a huge tankard of alcohol
"that kid is Insane! You think his a Pallum instead?", genetic tavern Patron 1
"nah I know a Pallum when I see one this kid is Human", exclaimed a random god patron
"woah, he really did finish the whole thing what is this kid", genetic tavern Patron 2
"will that be all?, I remember correctly I'd have a discount on my drink", Bell smug faced as he put down the 'cup' looking like nothing has changed, he remained cool, But internally was struggling to hold it in together being young in a new body that's not used to alcohol and without his old half-demon body to accelerate Metabolism, everything is being held by pure mental fortitude.
'Nyahahahaha, You and your senseless pride haven't you learned anything as V?", mocked griffon feeling Bell's inner struggle,
'Not now Griffon', Bell while eating his beef like a well mannered Noble. Ignoring the collective stares aimed at him as he ate,
"that was amazing, mind knowing your name?", ask a pretty young silver haired lady, as she Handed him a glass of water, accepting the gesture Bell stared for a moment before nodding
"Bell Cranel", He replied coolly continuing to eat in peace
"what a cute name, I'm Syr by the way and if I may ask, what Familia are you from?", ask Syr taking a sit in front of Bell a palm on her chin.
Bell paused for a second before finishing up the Beef dish
"I'm in no familia, I have just Arrived this day", Bell spoke to them truthfully he was planning to search a suitable God or Goddess tommorow
"I-I see", Sry suprised by the asnwer and not just her the other waittresses as well, as Bell gave out an air of a veteran warrior
Standing up from his table and leaving the exact amount of valis owed of which Mia Counted and happy to received the payment, as he started walking to the exit Mia called out to him.
"if, your looking for a Familia to join I suggest asking the guild for more information and make sure to come back to spend more ye' hear me!", Mia grand directing him to the Guild.
"sure, I'll consider it", Bell replied in a nonchalant manner barely looking back at the matrion of the pub,
Walking down the street Bell's footing is a bit wobly and vision somewhat blurry, Bell strolled aimlessly not much paying to his location or where his going.
'nyahahaha, told you you where over doing it, nhahaha', laughed Griffon can't over Bell's current predicament,
'Not now', Bell growled as he tried to keep awake, after walking aimlessly he found himself in an abandoned church, He would have just rent a room back in the pub, but he was not thinking clearly, looking around and spotting one the pews in good condition he laid down on it, and slept the night entrusting his familiars to keep watch over him just in case.
Bell woke up as the sun rays hit his face, sitting himself up, he was attacked by what you could describe as a killer headache, grimacing at the pain he stretched his arms and shoulders to remove the stiffness,
'Finally awake sleepyhead?, I'd expect you'd sleep longer after drinking that much, I also took the liberty to explore the area and we found ourselves in an abandoned Church, how'd you even find this place in the middle these ruins is miracle, also there's a unused room in the basement with an empty bedframe and an intact kitchen, if you don't mind the cobwebs', Informed griffon,
"how did yo-, Oh right", remembering his Familiars can get out in their own if his not conscious nor preventing them so, after a while he went ahead and explored the basement underneath, removing some cobwebs in the way, he then decided to make this place his home base until he can join a Familia
'this place will do for now', setting his bag by the bed frame he set out to find a Patron God to receive a falna if not he would just buy a decent mattress and look for one the next day
'what kind of god you want join in on lil'V?, hoping you join a Goddess with smoking hot body?'. Griffon wanting to get a reaction out of Bell but Bell just ignored the last bit earning a disappointed grunt from the thunder bird,
'No one in particular, I would prefer a new Familia rather than the more establish ones, I'd rather work alone and not be worried about anything else', Bell answering the Bird's question,
'what bout' finding an all female familia? Just show em' your magic and that spardan smile, and viola any girl will fall for you in an instant', Griffon suggested
His left eye twitching, 'I did not come here to form a harem Griffon, as I said to gran- Zeus, I'd consider it, end of discussion', Bell immediately shuts down Griffon for any more side comments about his Harem prospects
'tch, your a mood killer you know that poor poor granpa won't get his last wish', Griffon not relenting one bit and keep on bothering Bell about getting laid, Bell getting irritated by the second.
'I Do not need to follow the words of a single minded pervert, Granp- Zeus' words are irrelevant', bell now very annoyed he barely got out of the ruins,
'if you keep this up you'll die a virgin, How'd you even get lucky to have Nero is a miracle buts that's no excuse to deny the pleasures of the flesh!', Griffon is now really getting on Bells nerves somehow bringing his past life's son in the conversation, now Bell is about to snap and griffon pushing just the right button
'you-! alright how about a wager?, If a Goddess fell on my arms by the rest of the day I'd make her my woman', dared Bell just wanting to silence this horny Bird making up an ridiculous bet on the spot
'Hoho~, make it your FIRST woman, and honor your grandpa's wish then we have a deal, If this doesn't happen by the rest of the day I'll shup-up and only talk when spoken to deal?' Griffon accepting the wager with an extra condition, to which Bell accepted
'fine! we have a deal! I swear on Sparda's name to uphold this wager no matter what!, you have my word both as a warrior and my pride as a swordsman', Bell Intoned with conviction anything to shut this bird up, knowing that the bet is impossible to achieve, no goddess would be sane enough to throw themselves at him, and if they did, he'd just have to make sure he doesn't let that happen not a moment too soon one of them will be blessed with a Divine miracle.
High above the heavens a streak of light is seen rapidly descending the world of Genkai, if a pillar of light returning to the heavens signifies a God's return to Tenkai then a streak of light reminiscent to a shooting star falling to the world means a God is descending to the world, all Gods knew this and felt it, those who are related or acquainted the descending god would also recognize who is it, all around the world all of the gods and goddesses who have known Hestia would feel her arrival
Hestia planned to descend to Genkai a few more years but as if fate directly intervened urging her to descend earlier than planned, she originally intended to land near Orario but again this strange urge got the better of her and intended to land near Hephaestus instead knowing she's the only Goddess she can rely on at moments notice,
Hephaestus reading and signing some documents in her office raised her eyebrow and smiled feeling the descent of the only Goddess that sheltered her in Tenkai already willing help her get used being in the lower world and help her get started in starting her Familia, she owed her that much at the very least
Takemikazuchi looked up from his shrine as he also felt his' friend decent to the lower world, he wanted to travel to Orario and meet up with Hestia but he still needed to train his Familia members so they can survive the the brutal reality of the Dungeon
Loki sitting down in her office looking at Astraea Familia's report about the investigation of Rudera Familia's involvement with Evilus, twitched her eye feeling the Goddess that mocked her for her lack of upper mass back in tenkai is descending before laughing menacingly thinking all the ways to get back at her in the lower world.
Astraea smiled at the sensation of Hestia's descent one of her favorite Goddess for her nature in Accepting anyone into her home without an ounce of discrimination something Astraea respected, however she remained focused on the guild's last seen report about the latest exploit the mysterious "little-Devil" an alias mostly given by the Criminals arrested because of him is an alleged pallum wearing a devilish mask with horns and a red robe that covers most of his body wreaking havok to the underground world, beating up crooks and bandits and sometimes stopping a few murders from ocuring, the "little-Devil" always leave them with multiple injuries whenever the Ganesha Familia or her girls found the aftermath of a fight, even capable of fighting against multiple level 3s, it was also noted that the "little-Devil" have a disdain for child traffickers brutally torturing them and leaving them barely alive and broken when found, She had the girls have a lookout for the "little-Devil" Concerned about the child from staining his hands
The first time she saw the "little-devil" she instantly knew it was young child and not some pallum most people assumed, when she first saw him, he was beating a pedophile in pure anger intending to kill the human trash, but she managed to stop the child from killing the human fearing what would happen to the child's mental state if he did, letting kaguya deal with the trash personally, but even with the speed of her level 4 girls they couldn't catch the slippery little devil able to match the pace of her fastest children and effortlessly dodging any attempt to capture the child, only to disappear after briefly losing sight of the small child.
As if the very will of the fates have Blessed (Cursed in Bell's perspective) the young Cranel, a light similar to a shooting start was rapidly descending upon Orario, towards and certain emo child, normally this child can sense anything heading towards him but even if he can sense the approaching shooting star it was too fast to react, Bell instinctively held out his hands before the shooting star struck him at pinpoint accuracy.
A flash of light briefly squander the Area around Bell and what comes after made Bell shut off his mind and heart for any further activity
In Bells arms is a Goddess with long black hair that drapes to her back, pale skin with blue eyes, cute petite figure with a healthy amount of 'assets', wearing a white one-piece dress that further emphasized her figure and curves showing a healthy amount of her thighs with her back exposed and a blue ribbon that envelopes her body that further emphasized her healthy 'assets'.
Hestia, opening her eyes for the first time in Genkai she did not expect to see a dashing young 'man' starring at her blue orbs so intensely, before noticing she was being princesses carried by the handsome young 'man' and instantly blushing profusely and squirming in his arms letting out cute sounds
"awawawawawa", is the only sound produced by the virgin Goddess, the young 'man' still haven't reacted and just continued to motionlessly stare at her in his arms,
Suddenly a black bird came out of nowhere and started Hysterically laughing this startled Hestia and made her grab onto Bell and causing the black bird to laugh even harder
"MHUAAHAHAHAHA, THIS IS- HAHAHA, I-I- HAHAHAHA Can't HAHAHA", the Bird falling on its back and one wing on his stomach not relenting for a single moment
Bell remained frozen all cognitive functions seems to have stopped still staring at the heavily blushing Goddess currently holding on to him and starring back at him.
Let's just say it took hours before Bell let the Goddess down and an awkward silence remained between the two that can't seem to look at each other eyes, the Goddess still a blushing mess after how long he held her and the black bird having ran out of breath only lets croaking noises.
For the first time the Former son of Sparda, the legendary dark slayer, the Eternal Edgelord, the Alpha and Omega have his mind broken and empty of all and any thoughts ceasing all kinds of functions nor purpose and he stayed at that broken mind that lasted for hours struggling to piece his mind together.
