Shit people. Looking back on the chapters I messed up with the Money system. I'll fix it later but now money is more "realistic" in what people make. Sorry.

It was only after ten minutes of hugging Bell for dear life did Eina finally let him go.

"B-Bell!" Eina said as if he was dead and had come to life again. "Don't worry Eina we're both ok." He said smiling at her while helping her up. The two just stood still for a moment before Bell decided to lead the way. Eina was off in never never land with her thoughts.

'How did the silverback get out? Who let it out? Why did it chase after me alone?! How did Bell defeat it? HOW DID BELL DO THAT!??? Where did Bell get that sword???' Was the thoughts that Eina had. Before she knew it Bell had lead her to a restaurant.

"I hope I'm not doing this the wrong way but, I think we should sit down and have a drink of some kind to help ease us off all the adrenaline of the last hour." Bell said getting a automatic nod from Eina who was still shocked by the events.

They had sat down and Eina noticed that her hands were shacking, she just placed them under the table. She had so many things to ask Bell but had no idea where to start but Bell knew what she was thinking.

"You're thinking about all that has happened and how I defeated that monster." He simply said as Eina looked up from her hands and just simply nodded.

"What you saw me do is an Ability only we Lucian' can do, it's part of our.. "Bloodline." Bell said trying to be as honest and yet not crazy.

"I thought your last name is Caelum?" Eina simply said a bit confused.

"It is, but Lucis is the most widely used name for my family, we can "gift" the ability to summon weapons to others but they can not receive the same abilities as a person of Lucian blood." Bell said.

"So what was that weapon you used." She asked.

"That is one of the special weapons only we Lucii can wield. Though others can wield it but only if a Lucian gifts it to them." He simply said. And it was at that that Eina finally asked the important question of them all.

"What is so special about your family Bell? I see The wonderment of being able to do what you do but I'd imagine it'd fade rather quickly. If your so well known."

Bell for his part did his best to come up with the right answer to give.

"The role of the Lucii, well the Lucians is actually a small family, we date back centuries but our family was always small. To be honest I'm amazed that we lasted this long without dying out. We were one of the prominent guardians of our Kingdom, some say it was the Lucii who were picked by the gods to defend our island kingdom. but that's just legend, but the Lucian line has always been dedicated to protecting our home." Bell said with as much honesty he could give without revealing the whole truth.

"But It doesn't matter anymore; as far as I know, I'm the last of my family." Bell said looking down at his water as Eina had an uncomfortable look.

"Sorry for prying so much." She said as her elf ears had dropped down to the side a bit.

"Don't be Eina, nothing could have been done anyway." Bell said looking up at the sky, thinking about what will happen to his home and his people.

"Why are you hiding your true potential and power? Why hide your rank?" Eina asked. It was a fair question, if he didn't hide his progress and his reputation he could have joined any Familia he wanted, they'd welcome him with open arms. Yet here he was hiding in the suns shadow, keeping his power to himself joining a Familia That is absolutely poor.

"I've had a taste of notoriety, I've seen and felt what being well known and famous looks like first hand. It feels good, and it's a poison, I was thought that it's alright to have those feelings of pride and accomplishment, but it must also be balanced with humbleness, meekness, never look down on the weak, but always protect. What's the point of having notoriety, fame is only temporary."

Bell finished his explanation to Eina.

"Still, it would help make you life easier as an adventure, the more well known you are the stronger people will approach to ask to join their expeditions or form parties to dungeon hunt, it's to increase your survival."

"I know Eina, but a lot of Adventures... they seem to full of themselves." He simply said taking a drink.

Eina just didn't know what to say, she was exhausted.

After they finished their drinks they got up and Bell decided it was enough excitement for one day.

"Eina, why don't I escort you home, I know you must be exhausted from all this." Bell said to which Eina just agreed.

On their way Eina decided to ask just a few more questions.

"What was your life like Bell, before you had to leave Insomnia?"

"Before I was taken to train, My life was actually pretty well off. These "rich boy cloths" Well, my family was quite wealthy. Key word was. Father was always busy with work and mother was just as busy, I spent my days rather lonely, the maids would sometimes play with me but they knew there was a limit to friendliness and closeness. But it is some of the best memories I have." Bell said

"Then Why are you Here Bell? Shouldn't you be back home?" Eina asked puzzled.

"My guardians.. they were the ones responsible for bringing me here. Last I heard our Kingdom was on the verge of collapse. They sent me away so that I could live." Bell said with a heavy voice.

Eina was lost with what to say next but felt she had to say something.

"Why did you become an Adventurer?" She asked next.

"Honestly It was the best option for me, I was trained to fight, being an Adventurer was the best option I saw.

"Do you think you'll ever return home?" She asked as he stoped to think on those words. He remembered the words of the Astrals, his instructions to wait until the time was right, but when was that time? Would it even be by his life time?

"I-I Don't know." Was his simple reply.

They had arrived at her home, the day beyond what they had expected, but it solidified their friendship with an breakable bond.

"Bell could you wait here a moment?" Eina asked.

"Of course.

It was five minutes until she returned. "You May have had a huge responsibility and more Bell." She said looking at him. "But I'm glad you're here and that I met you. You're a hero through and through Bell and I know Orario is lucky to have you. So please, take this. She said as she handed Bell a emerald arm guard pice.

Bell was surprised by her words and this gift she was giving him.

"T-thank you." Bell said touched by what she was doing and he looked away shyly.

"B-but are you sure?" He asked only to receive a nod.

"Please take it, not for my sake but for yours. You never know when an Adventurer will die. I've met a lot of Adventurers who never came back. I don't want you to go away; so maybe it is for my sake." She said getting embarrassed and trying to laugh it off slightly.

"When I saw how determined you were when you first became an adventure I wanted to help you, so.. please take it." She said as she looked at him with a gentle smile.

Bell just looked at her for a moment, moved by her words a single tear rolled done his eye as he smiled back.

"Thank you Eina, for everything." He said as his smile was ever strong.

Suddenly Eina bent down just a bit and kissed him on his cheek turning him into a red mess spouting gibberish as he couldn't process what had happened. Eina just giggled as she too sported a blush. Though she recovered quickly she simply said "see you at the guild.. my hero." As she entered her home Bell just stood there like a rock. But he soon came back to reality, realizing he was looking like an idiot he finally took his leave. Thinking back to what she had said, he couldn't help but smile at the days events and the precious gift he would always cherish.

Bell was on his way back as the sun was setting, he was taking an allway route thinking back on his day. That's when someone bumped stright into him and fell down.

"Are you Alright?" Bell asked in concern only to be interrupted by another voice.

"Your not getting away this time!" Another person came running twords them his sword drawn readying to strike. Seeing this Bell pulled out his knife and blocked the strike. Seeing this surprised the girl and shocked the man trying to harm her.

"You know this girl?" The man asked backing down.

"No I just met her." Bell said still ready.

"Then why are you protecting this trash?" He asked.

"Honestly, you call yourself a man, you attack a defenseless young girl? Your no man." Bell said not happy with with what this person was trying to do.

"You think you know me?! Or her! You're pissing me off!" The man Yelled readying to attack him.

"Enough." A new voice said stopping the two from continuing their fight. Looking to the left Bell saw that it was Ryu.

"You shouldn't be sword fighting in the middle of the city." She simply said.

"And who are you?" The man asked not getting a response so he was about to attack her only for her to stop him simply by intimidation and authority.

"I don't want to get violent but I will, and I tend to go overboard" She said which was enough to intimidate the man to walk away.

"Thanks Ryu." Bell simply said returning his own weapon,

"Are you-" Bell was going to ask only to find that the girl had disappeared.

"Strange." Bell simply said.

"I wouldn't worry about it too much Mister Caelum, a simple disagreement that's all. But please be careful in meddling in affairs, if anything were to happen to you Syr would be very upset." Ryu said as she began to take her leave.

"I supose I should, it's gotten me into a few pinches." Bell said, that last in a whisper but the elf heard him regardless. Wondering what he meant for a moment

As Bell was done saying that his stomach growled, as he looked embarrassed he noted the bag of food she had in her arms. "Those yours or the Pub?" Bell asked. "For the pub."

"Do you mind if I go there with you?" Bell asked politely.

"I do not mind, I believe our "best cook" is always welcome." Ryu answered him notting the mild look of embarrassment at his skill for the pub' kitchen.

The walk there was filled with silence, Bell felt uncomfortable by it but noted that Ryu seemed content on the silence so he just kept quite as well. Only ten minutes of walking and they arrived at the pub. Bell noted that it was busy as usual but the Loki Familia was absent tonight, or they already left before.

"Ahh Ryu glad your back and hey! Brought our best money maker as well. Oh dressed for a special occasion too." Mia said happy to see Bell, the others greeting him as well. As he took a seat.

"Hello Bell, what would you like?" Syr asked.

"I'll have the Pasta and some water please." As he got settled in he began to drift in thought about the events of the day ignoring the gossip for today.

"I'm telling you man, Tina saw it with her own eyes the kid just summoned a sword out of thin air!" One patron said to his group.

"And I'm calling Bullshit! No one can summon swords out of thin air!" The other said gulping down his drink.

"I heard the same from Wallace, he was there as well and he saw the same thing as Tina, so it has to be true." The other said.

"Great, first there's this Nulla Domus person now there's this Sword summoner.. what if thier he same person?!"

"Now THAT is BS." The whole group said. And they weren't the only group to be talking about it, others around the city were all abuzz about the new legend. Most just chocked it as just gossip and legend, few actually believed it.

"Here you go Bell." Syr said placing his food down. "Thank you."

"Neh Mister Caelum, we were wondering if you could teach us how to make some of the dishes you served the other day, we'd really appreciate it, and we'd give you a discount on all meals from now on as well." Mia asked when she approached his table.

"Sure I don't mind." Bell simply said as it was going to be busy night.

Later that Night Bell headed home to the Blue Pharmacy with a couple of bags in hand Bell still had a hard time believing that he was in a Familia, but he was happy that he was in one like Miach'. The sun was just setting when he arrived, Naza as usual was at the front; just now closing.

"Hello Caelum." Naza greeted him.

"Hey Naza, where's everyone?"

"Lord Miach is in the back making some Potions, Daphne and Cassandra are upstairs."

"Any luck with sells today?"

"We made only seven thousand Valis today. What about you?"

"Well I had to spend some today so that leaves me with fifteen thousand left. I plan on going to look for some extra armor tomorrow, or at least scout out some for later, then It's another day at the dungeon. Here I brought some food for everyone." He said as he too decided to head upstairs after setting supper down. The building itself in which the Miach Familia resided actually was a three story building minus the basement. The second floor which consisted of five rooms was where the ladies stayed, while the top floor which consisted of six rooms were where Bell and Miach stayed.

Bell knocked on the door in which Daphne and Cassandra stayed, he waited a moment until the door opened. Seeing Cassandra and Daphne behind on her bed Bell simply told them that supper was downstairs for them, to which they both thanked him. Bell was a new member sure, but those two seemed distant. He was hoping that he could get to know them and be friends, but.. the only time he really spent with them was when they were burying bodies, which Bell admittedly acknowledged that isn't the best way to make first impressions. Where they scared of him? He wouldn't blame them. But he just hoped he could get to know them soon.
