In Irish Mythology Miach was a son of Diancecht. Miach replaced the silver arm his father made for with an arm of flesh and blood; Dian Cecht killed him out of jealousy for being able to do so when he himself could not. Dian Cecht killed him by chopping Miach's head four times with his sword. The first strike only cut Miach's skin and Miach healed it. The second blow broke Miach's skull but Miach also healed that. The third cut grazed Miach's brain yet Miach could even heal this. Dian Cecht's fourth attack cut his son's brain in half and finally killed Miach. This resulted in 365 herbs growing from his grave, which his sister Airmid/Amid arranged, but which their father scattered. In any case, however, Miach is later seen in the story continuing to heal the Tuatha Dé by his father's and sister's side, so apparently there were no hard feelings.

In Irish Mythology the goddess Airmed (also given as Airmid AKA Amid) was one of the Tuatha Dé Danann. With her father Dian Cecht and brother Miach, she healed those injured in the Second Battle of Magh Tuiredh. After her jealous father slew her brother, Miach, Airmed wept over her brother's grave. Watered by her tears, all the healing herbs of the world (365 in number - according to the number of Miach's joints and veins) sprung from the earth over Miach's body, and Airmed collected and organized them all, spreading them on her cloak. Once again, their father lashed out, and scattered the herbs. For this reason, no living human knows all the secrets of herbalism. Only Airmed remembers.

Naaza' magic, Darbh Daol, is named after the Irish name for the , an insect that gnawed on the flesh of the deity Nuada Airgetlam. Naaza is based on the Irish deity .

I also rewritten chapters 6-7 and some other chapter as well, All I did was change the names of Daphne and Cassandra to the proper reactions with Bell. Daphne is the one who doesn't like bell while Cassandra is the shy timid oracle.


Read the Authors note at the end. IMPORTANT Information.

And here is chapter 8. The longest chapter as well.

thank you

Bell and Ais were currently forty minutes into their training and Ais' outfit had three tears, while Bell sported two. Ais was truly impressed, it was shock at first, she was a higher level Adventurer then he was, but he was standing on par with her, and as of the moment besting her. Ais called forth one of her Wind attacks, mentally chanting her attack into the sword, which was beginning to glow but was interpreted when Bell charged at her canceling it as she leaped back.

"Your opponent will not stand like a stupid statue waiting for you to finish a chant, that is when your the most exposed, you must learn to call on your attacks quicker, or when there is an opening and ample space between you and the enemy." Bell said as Ais just nodded. For the next twenty minutes Bell showed her a few things about his fighting styles and shared a few thing as well.

"Now this next stance is called the winds of Sheeva. This attack fits your weapon best. It realize on fast and pinpoint accuracy but also a sharp concentration and a..cold attitude towards your opponent/s. Now, stand in this position and hold Your Rapier like so." Bell instructed her on the new style, Bell learned one thing about the sword princess during their training fairly quickly. 'She's defiantly an airhead' Bell thought earlier as he had to resist the urge to smack his face when she went into stupid positions when he first arrived and she wondered what the stances were. But he saw that she was determined and that just might make the cut. And for the next Three hours they trained.

"Where did Ais go?" Lefiya asked as she was walking just under the wall that they were training on. She heard the faint sound of fighting and went to investigate.

Flashback

Lefiya was out and about trying to find Ais/z. When she saw that Ais was leaving right after supper.

"Ais where are you going?"

"I'm off to train." Was her simple reply.

"Do you mind if I join you?" Lefiya asked as her mind went to one of her fantasies. *Sure Lefiya maybe you could show me some of your amazing magic spells.*

Oh Ais of course I can!* Then the fantasy moves to Ais resting her head on Lefiya' lap.

Lefiya was so engrossed in her fantasy but thankfully the next words that came from Ais brought her back to reality

"Sorry Lefiya, But this is something I want to do alone." She simply said as she just walked out. If she just gave a simple glance she would have seen the elf' ears drooping down And a sad look to her face. However that did not sway the young girl. 'Ais maybe wanting to train alone but I can at least watch over her, her training is a bit more on the harsh side so it's my duty to watch out for my Familia members and friends.' Lefiya told herself as she waited a moment before following her idol, delusions of sweet nothings in her mind most of the way.

Present

Lefiya lost Ais when she made a right turn when she should have taken a left (at Albuquerque) the reason she lost Ais was she assumed that she would head to her usual training ground but when Lefiya got there well... so she's been looking all these hours.

"Where could Ais be?" She asked herself a bit tiered, and by pure chance she glanced up and saw Ais.

"T-That's!" She said shocked as she saw the condition of Ais, her cloths had a handful of various cuts and tears being an elf she had slightly better hearing then humans, that being said it did little for the Elf girl as hers was more of a. Selective hearing.

"I'm impressed, your training went well, your a natural in the many forms I showed you." Bell said as both he and Ais were walking slowly, a slight limp on Ais' part. "Thank you for teaching me them.. can we do this again soon?" She asked to which of Bell simply nodded.

Lefiya was down on her knees arms completely limb, she had heard them word for word. 'T-t-t-training? P-p-positions!?' She thought as her face was the poster of defeat and a loss of will to fight and live. She stayed there lost in her thoughts that when she came back to reality only the stars knew how long she stayed like that. Not moving like a statue her mind racing trying to come up with any kind of excuse she could give Ais but in reality give herself.

'I-I-I was supposed to be Ais' first! Not that-that-that blasted human!' She though in rage 'That dammed Human I'll never forgive him for that!' She screamed in her mind before she tried to get up to go, realizing she couldn't move her legs at all due to them being asleep.


As Bell entered his home of the Blue Pharmacy he was greeted by Naza who appeared to be waiting for him.

"Ah Caelum, back from your thing?" She asked him.

"Naza? I'm sorry were you wanting for me?" He asked.

"only for thrifty minutes, but potion making helps pass the time, unless it's out of necessity. However what I wanted to talk about was would you go to the market with me in the morning?" She asked Bell a bit surprised by that.

"I don't mind at all, but what is it we will be looking for?"

"A few simple things.. but I wanted to get to know you better." She bluntly said.. after a momentary pause.

"W-What?" Bell asked surprised, a cute little blush adorned his face at the notion of a girl asking him out on a date.

"Don't think of it as a date, I have eyes for Miach." Naza Swiftly killed any thoughts Bell was thinking, and to be honest Bell was a bit taken back by the swiftness of her response to his reaction but he supposed it was part of her personality.

"However, I've realized something, the time you've been in our Familia we've barely had any personal interactions, you've saved my life twice Bell, and Miach' which I am forever grateful, but I've come to feel like if I am to call you a member of our Familia and more importantly a friend I should get to know you better and let you get to know me just as well." She finished her explanation.

"Naza you should know I already consider you a friend, but I agree, we barely know each other.. aside from what I've told you.. alright then, how about tomorrow after breakfast?." He asked too which Naza nodded to.


As Bell drifted off too sleep he found himself in the astral plains, shocked since the last time he spoke to the Astral gods was when he was sent to Orario. Relief flooded through him, knowing the astral could still talk to him, but worry and dread at the news of what they could provide in regards to Lucis.

"Do not be troubled, oh Prince. For I come to you with news and a gift." The Glacian told Bell as she appears before him in her Gintiana appearance.

"Glacian!" Bell said as he gave a bow.

"Raise your head oh young Royal, I bare you good news. Your home of Lucis prospers, your Mother survived and led your people to prosperity, your Family still lives strong." She told Bell as tears and joy filled his body and soul. And for the first time in a while he laughed, he never thought he could feel so much relief in his life.

"However the accursed still walks the world, the time of the true king is not yet upon us, but the time will come. Live O Prince of Lucis, live, and enjoy what you've made here in this world." She said as she opened her arms out and before her appeared a giant shuriken.

"Behold the Star of the Rouge. This is your mothers weapon, use it well young Prince." Once Bell grabbed hold it instantly disappeared in a flash of light, the other royal arms and weapons Bell had collected reacted to it.

"I have so many questions." Bell could only say, still shocked.

"Ask only one, for our time is short."

"Why are you giving this to me if this is my mothers?"

"Your mother has passed on into the ring of the Lucii. The ring you carry is but a copy Lord beaumont created to Aid you in this world. The ring you carry is not the original, that stayed back in Lucis. The ring you carry is still the ring of the Lucii but it does not house your ancestors souls, the ring can do everything the original ring does however this will not take your life force away." She told him to his shock.

'At least I won't have to go easy on the magic anymore.'

"What do you mean my mother has passed?! It's only been a handful of weeks since I arrived here?"

"True, But time is different between our worlds. Time in lucis goes by faster then it does in this world. However do not be alarmed. Our time is over." She began to fade away. Bell calling out wanting to ask so many more questions that plagues his heart and mind. But before she faded she told him one last bit of info.

"There is another person here who hails from Lucis, the time for you to meet is not yet young Prince, do not worry, I will send her to you when you need her help the most."


And with that Bell awoke to the world, the rays of light barely noticeable signifying that dawn was near. Bell for a moment thought that his meeting with the Astral Of winter, death and compassion was but a dream, then he remembered that he was gifted his mothers royal Arm, knowing that the only way to be sure, he reached out and called for the weapon and there before him it appeared, proving that what had transpired did in fact happen. Despite the news that everyone he loves had passed but had managed to live a full life, Bell couldn't help but smile, a huge weight off his soul in knowing that his home was still strong, and that his family still survived.

The morning had quickly come for the Miach Familia, Bell as per the usual norm got up before dawn and did his usual exercises, he knew Daphne Cassandra and Lilly would be sleeping later then usual due to the Minotaur incident, of course they reported to the guild about it and were thanked after a series of questions.

As Bell walked down the stairs to find something to eat he saw that Naza was already busy at her work station brewing positions of all kinds. Seeing this it reminded Bell that he needed to make more Elixirs for himself and his Familia in dire emergencies. The Elixirs would be worth a fortune and would be the thing they needed, however the Elixirs needed a certain amount of Royal magic to properly work, for without the Royal magic infused into it, it would just be a regular drink, tasting like a Soda. ( A legendary energy drink that takes on superior restorative properties by way of Noctis' powers. Fully restores HP and MP, regenerates half of maximum HP. FFXV Elixirs WIKI)

Bell didn't mind making them, but the demand and supply would make him be seen as nothing more then a magic cow, but as long as they made the Valis and it was kept as a Familia secret and it was limited, Bell felt that it would be alright in the end if he ever had to make them, 'besides if my Elixirs were ever go to commercial it's not that hard to have limited supply and sale.' Bell thought as he walked up to Naza.

"Good morning Caelum." Naza said as she was at the stove making breakfast for the Familia.

"Good morning Naza, what can I do to help?"

"Could you make breakfast? There's some milk and eggs in the pantry. I'll help as soon as I'm done here, I'm going to make pancakes and some biscuits to go with our eggs but you can do what you see fit for the eggs." She simply said as Bell didn't need to hear more. Thanks to that dropped item that Minotaur dropped and the cash it brought in, the Familia was able to by some milk and a few cartons of eggs as well as FRESH vegetables and three bags of flower. This was going to be a special treat for the Familia. Bell admittedly, never got over his surprise by how big something so simple like milk and eggs are to some people, The whole Familia found that a simple thing as eggs milk, and flower which could be combined to make many things were such a treasure to them.

Bell knew that it was no thanks to his royal upbringing that he thought this way, even with just ten simple years couldn't change his thoughts. He knew he lived just like them for most of his years and he lived off things worse then what he got from the pantry, half the time. But Bell to his shame admitted, 'Some things just can't be drilled out of your head.' He thought as the luxuries of his childhood would forever leave some form of impact, but he knew what he chose when he joined, but he'd be dammed if he said he'd never miss refrigeration.

"Bell got started on laying everything out, he decided to make some omelettes with the fresh vegetables they had. As Bell was in the middle of cutting the vegetables Naza walked in to begin helping. As the two began to prep breakfast Naza decided to start a conversation.

"So Bell, aside from what you've told us at that.. Familia meeting the other day what other things do I not know about you?"

"Well I like to cook, it's kind of a hobby of mine, though my family had a more of a fishing hobby then they ever did with cooking. I'm told I'm the first Caelum in our fifteen hundred year family line to have a cooking hobby." He said with a smile. Though the face Naza had was shock and surprise.

"Bell, who are you exactly? You said your Family Dynasty, that word mostly pertains to Royalty but even if that's not the case, it means your family is important or very near to being royalty, the oldest nation in the world is the Empire and it's only seven hundred years old. I've actually been wondering about a few things. I'm quite knowledgeable in history, so don't talk to me like I'm ignorant." She said with a stern expression on her face, starring directly at Bell as both stopped.

'Sigh' "Alright Naza. What caused you to think that?"

"I've wondered ever since you gave us some information about your home. First the name of your home, Insomnia, you said it was the Capitol of your Kingdom, but there is no Insomnia in this world Bell, and second, that sacred crystal" of your home, then there is the chant less magic, even IF your Kingdom is a small nation, those two things alone would place your home in eternal history. I want the truth Bell.. please, don't hid the truth.. at least from me." That last bit naza said with a soft tone, a minor look of disappointment on her face and her ears dropping down.

Seeing her expression Bell relented. He also still wanted to touch her ears as the Ears of the beast people was a weakness of his but he'd die with that bit of personal information. However just before he was going to continue the others including Lillie appeared at the kitchen entrance, Miach voicing for all three of the others thoughts.

"Please bell, tell us, we hold no secrets in this familia, we will accept you no matter what."

"Sometimes the truth is far to crazy to believe." He simply said looking at the counter.

"I am a god Bell, I know when someone is lying, just tell us the truth, I'll know if it is true or not."

"Very well, I warn you that it will make me seem like I'm crazy, but what I tell you is the truth, I do however ask that you all try and refrain from asking questions until I finish, or I ask one myself." Too which they all nodded.

"Lillie do you remember what this is?" He asked as he held his right hand up showing the Ring of the Lucii on his middle finger.

"You said that is the ring of the Lucii, it is your family heirloom, passed down from family member to family member." she said, to which Bell nodded.

"You're right, it is, but this is so much more then a simple ring."

Bell said as he began to summon his weapons, they all saw the ring light up the dimly lit room in a bright almost blinding light. There, in front of them was the prince of Lucis, surrounded by weapons, floating in mid-air, the sound of glass shattering and crystalline fragments, reflected in the light almost like crystals, the room now bright as if it was fully basked in the glow of the sun.

The Royal arms dancing around him in tandem with the many weapons. Naza and Miach stared back in utter shock and disbelief even Daphne, Cassandra and Lillie were stunned by the sight of it's pure beauty completely unreal to them. They had never heard of nor truly seen such a power even though they did see a fraction of it in the Dungeon. However, the sight was still breathtaking to see. From here, they felt it. Power and authority rolled off of this Boy in waves, and though his body was small, he stood tall and proud like a dauntless giant, ready to face any coming storm before him.

"The Ring of the Lucii is a magical ring.. Naza?"

"W-w-WHAT!?" Naza in a rare show of emotion couldn't contain her shock, the site of the weapons still floating around Bell, the Shards and it's sounds were surprisingly like music to her ears, it was truly the most beautiful image she has ever seen. The others faring no better, though Lilli and Cassandra' face was one of pure wonder. Daphne was to shocked to even speak, though Miach was showing.. on the outside any way calm.

"The Ring of the Lucii "Helps" he said the word with quoting his fingers channel our Magic that we are born with, however and more importantly the Ring is how we channel the magic of the Sacred crystal." He said only Daphne finally regained some composer and couldn't help but speak her mind out.

"Hold on! You told us that only the Royal family could fully use the magic of the crystal." Upon realizing this the others also agreed with her.

"You are right Daphne, as we've said earlier the Ring of the Lucii is something that is passed down from on from one heir of the family to the next heir... and the Ring of the Lucii is the official Crown and symbol of the Lucian royal family." Hell followed after that sentence as the whole Familia Miach included all began asking and demanding questions at the same time, half of them screaming them out of shock.

"Enough!" Bell ordered, his voice commanding and demanding obedience, they all felt it, a command and voice full of power and authority, a voice full of wisdom and yet.. clear weariness, as if he'd seen to many hardships and tragedy in his life. this wasn't the same Bell they knew, no they knew in their souls that this was a boy.. no a MAN completely different, they saw how quickly his demeanor had changed, his posture tall and proud, they knew by his simple utterance of his words and command that he was of royal blood.

"Cassandra?" He allowed her to be the one to ask the question as he dropped his Royal attitude.

"H-How can you say that? I-I mean how can you expect us to believe this Bell? That you are Royalty?" She asked

LHe's telling the truth." Miach simply said his tone firm but Naza noted that slight falter in his voice, one that showed even he was hard to believe.

"Iunderstand your hesitation, as I said, it's hard to believe but it is the truth. I suppose a beginning would help though?" Bell said but it was more of a statement then a question too his Familia.

"sixteen hundred years ago the gods of my world of Eos approached a woman, they warned and told her that there was a parasitic scourge known as the star scourge that that would devour all light within the world, but it also literally turned people into monsters; the gods which we call the Astrals made a pact with the woman, her descendants would be the chosen ones by the gods to protect the world from the star scourge, it would be from her blood that the world would be saved. The pact was formed however it wouldn't be until one hundred years later that the pact would appear. The first True lucian was born, Somnus Lucis Caelum was his name, born with the innate ability that would be one of the primary abilities of the Lucian Dynasty. He could summon weapon just as I have. He was the one who fought back the star scourge but not without great loss of life due to the scourge. He would later be known as the Founder King and formed the City of Insomnia.. well formed isn't the right word as Insomnia was there since before the founding of Lucis, it was renamed Insomnia."

Bell spent the next two hours explaining his family history, answering what ever questions the others had. When all was said and done. Bell was open to a few more questions.

"T-this is a lot to take in." Daphne could only say.

"I don't think I could live a happy life with what is asked and destined of your Family Master Bell." Lillie said, as she had a clear look of sadness at hearning the sacrifice that all Lucians must face.

"So let me see if we understand this so far." Miach began.

"Ardyn is the oldest brother of the founding King, he was originally to be the chosen ruler but because the astrals and crystal betrayed him and the star scourge that inhabits his body he is now the sworn enemy of your world and the asterals?"

"That is true Lord Miach, even I won't ever forget this betrayal, It's understandable why the asterals and the crystal rejected him, but at the same time it is a betrayal none the less; he was destined to fail. He willingly gave his humanity for his people and the world, only to be betrayed. By the same gods who gave him the gift that made him what he was."

"Why did you choose us Bell? With your magic and skill any Familia would fight to have you, Hell, if they knew fully your power they could very well start a civil war just to get their hands on you. With the Freya Familia and the Loki Familia the only ones strong enough to keep others at bay. You could live a luxurious lifestyle, why choose us?" Cassandra asked the others finally realizing what kind of person is in their Familia. However at the mention of the Freya Familia, Miach remembered his talk with Freya, once this was over he would have to tell Bell about Freya.

"I'm a humble person, I may have "lived" in luxury for a decade but I love this Familia, I love what it represents and stands for. And I care for the people in this Familia, even you Lillie." Bell said getting a blush from the Pallam.

"There is a check in place that keeps my Family in check from going mad with power. First is the Astrals, the second is the Ring and Crystal itself, only those of Lucian Royal blood may wear the ring, anyone who dawns the ring and is deemed unworthy is engulfed in flames that can not be snuffed out, the original Ring houses the souls of the former Kings and Queens of Lucis, known as the rulers of yore, if they do not give their blessing to wield the Lucian magic then they are not worthy of ruling. Now there are cases in which those loyal to my family have donned the ring to protect us, if the Rulers of Yore find the person worthy of wielding our power then they can choose to lend the power. But at a great cost, the cost of a non Royal to wield the power of the crystal is death."

Bell said getting surprised and scared looks. "But there are a rare few who have avoided death, but at a great cost, the last person who wielded the ring didn't die, but he was forever paralyzed from the waist down, the one before him also avoided death but suffered permanent blindness." This ring must never fall into the wrong hands, not that anyone could wield or wear it but still, this is the most important thing I carry." Bell said as he looked at the Royal ring.

"You know something else, that black suit I wear sometimes, the nickname "rich boy outfit" as it's given me. That is the official dress of the Lucian Royal Family. It is known as the Royal regiment." Bell finished.

The girls all looked to Miach to see if everything Bell had told them was true, to which the Irish god of herbs and Medicine simply nodded.

"Well I know it's a lot too take in, a different world, different gods, all of this, but I sensed no lies what so ever, what Bell told us is the absolute truth. ALL of it." Miach finished confirming Bell' tale they didn't want to believe it, they wanted to and yet they also didn't, it was so far fetched that only a loon could make this up.

"I know what your thinking hard to believe huh? Hello my name is Bell Lucis Caelum and I'm a prince from a different world. I'd be locked up in the in insane asylum." Bell said, they had to agree it was such a crazy story, and even though Miach said Bell told the truth even they're having a hard time believing Miach

"Of course I know I don't have to tell you that I would like for this to be between us, aside from no one would believe me I don't want to just flaunt my abilities."

"Of course Bell." Miach said with a nod of his head. The others also agreeing to this.

"Well Alright!" Bell said with excitement in his voice. "I believe me and Naza were going to make breakfast."

The whole Familia and Lillie were enjoying their simple but special breakfast. All making small talk, but most were Still questions about Bell and his life. Though they quite enjoyed the food both Bell and Naza made together.

"Well this was nice, and I admit, I'm surprised that it's a relief to tell people about me, but as I said, I don't want people finding out, not that they'd believe me. But still." Bell said

"But anyway come on Naza." Bell said getting up and walking over twords her.

"Where are you two going?" Miach asked.

Bell with a smile on his face simply glanced down at Naza and simply said to the others.

"Naza asked me out on a date last night, and being a prince I'm honor bound to fulfill this amazingly beautiful woman's request." He said in a bit to cheeky tone. The smile he had was of smugness and teasing.

But everyone was too shocked by what Bell said to pay attention to the details. Naza just sat there shocked with a huge blush still on her face at being called beautiful, Cassandra was looking away Blushing with no shame, Miach and Daphne were just starring in Shock. And Lillie looked like she was about to explode from jealousy.

"See yeah later!" Bell said as he grabbed Naza' none prosthetic arm leaving the Pharmacy ignoring the protests of Naza. Leaving the others still in their chairs like statues.


"Come on Naza I said I was sorry! ..some" Bell said and whispered as Naza was walking in front of him, completely ignoring everything Bell was saying.

"I couldn't help it."

"I told you I love Miach! Now he's going to think I'm interested in you! Aghh I can't believe this!" She said in a huff.

"Don't worry Naza I'll tell everyone I was just having some fun, I'll be sure to tell Miach especially." Bell said only to have Naza stop and STOMP her way right up to his face.

"Listen here Caelum, if you dare tell Miach about my feelings it will be the last thing you do." She threatens the exiled prince. Only to have him put his hands up in defeat.

"What's the point of having feelings for him if you won't even act on them Naza?" Bell asked genuinely confused.

"Bell.. have you ever loved someone err had a crush on someone?" She asked.

"The only company I've really had were the Astral's, and they aren't really what can be considered the best help in.. developing a social life. Sure I've been told about sex and all that but.. while I have the knowledge and understanding of the social structures of Royalty and nobility my social sense isn't the most experienced with others; err well with romance."

"I see." She simply said.

"What's the story with you and Miach? What caused you to love him?" Bell asked as they began to walk side by side, the sky was a bit cloudy but it provided a nice atmosphere.

"Well I used to be an Adventurer, I'm a level 2 right now."

"Wow I didn't know that!" Bell said amazed though he supposed he shouldn't be surprised.

"That's right however there was an incident in the dungeon..." She stopped talking and walking, look at her prosthetic arm.

"I see." Bell simply said, knowing what that meant, it would also explain why she was always talking so low, and her eyes always so tired looking

'Due to the loss of blood, it must have left her somewhat anemic.' Bell thought with some realization.

"after that experience I've never set one foot into the Dungeon ever since, except the time when you saved me. The experience has left me forever scared to set foot in the Dungeon."

"What happened to cause you to go back despite your fears?" Bell asked.

Daphne and Cassandra were still in the Dungeon so I had no way of asking them to retrieve it. What I needed was a rare item needed for a rare potion. I believed that if I cold make that rare potion then that would help us with the next months rent, however as I said, Daphne nor Cassandra were not available, and we didn't have the funds to hire someone, so I tried to tell myself that it was time to overcome my fear, that I was strong enough to face the Dungeon, so I went out to find a party to the Dungeon, and for the most part I was doing alright, setting foot back into the Dungeon, but then that Minotaur happened and the trauma and memories of the day I lost my arm came back with vengeance and I was paralyzed. Then you came and the rest you know."

"May I ask how you got the prosthetic after that happened?"

"It's the reason why I love Miach. We used to be a larger Familia Bell, however when I lost my arm, Miach pretty much moved mountains to get me this. You See Bell, this arm was made by the Diancecht Familia, Lord Diancecht himself to be more precise." She told Bell as he made a face of surprise at the information.

"However, this cost the Familia every Valis we had to our name, when the other Familia members found out that Miach gave our entire fortune up for me they left, they left saying they didn't want to be in a Familia in debt. All of them left Bell, all of them!" She said, anger seeping into her voice.

"Bell knew it was at the Familia members that left, but Bell also knew she still held herself responsible and that she never fully got over it.

"I was the only one who stayed, I asked Miach why he did that, why did he sacrifice our Familia for me, he said, because he believed in me Caelum, he believed in me, and he's never given up his faith and trust in me. That's why I love him Bell."

"Miach truly is an amazing and caring god." Bell said as he looked up at the sky and smiled.

"Hey Naza, since I've been here in Orario, all I've ever done is go to the dungeon, the pub Hostess of Fertility, Babel tower and the guild. Do you mind showing me around the city, all its sites and hidden gems?" Bell asked with a smile on his face.

"Of course." She responded, a smile also on her face. The two friends went and explored the city, Bell was actually surprised, he didn't think Orario was as big as it was, but you learn something every day.

Naza showed him the sites, such as the heroic landmarks of the founding Adventurers and the gods of Orario, she showed him that there was actually a mid size lake in the city that was a favorite area for fishing on the banks as well as a swimming area. She also showed him the various community gardens, however, needless to say she didn't take him to a few places like the red light district, as well as Daedalus street as it was easy to get lost there, however she did give Bell a decent explanation of both areas.

It was around one when they made it back to the center of the city, Naza had showed Bell around just a portion of the city before her stomach growled with hunger, a small blush as this happened, Bell couldn't help but give a gentle chuckle as he saw Naza give him an irritated look on her face.

"Come on, I know a place we can eat at." He said as he grabbed her left hand with our thinking.

Naza simply followed not having much choice, but as she was being "dragged" along her mind started too wander.

'I still have a hard time believing that Caelum is of Royal Blood, you'd actually call Bull shit if you were told, he doesn't act like one of Royal blood, though I won't complain, I hate stuck up people, he always seems to have a smile on his face. Even this morning he seemed more.. happy then he ever has been since I've met him. I'm glad he joined our Familia, Me and Miach would be dead if it's not for Caelum.' As Naza thought those last words she couldn't help but feel a cold chill flow through her, it was enough to bring her out of her thoughts as she saw that Bell was walking right up to a huge building.

"Here we are!" He said letting go of her hand, Naza was surprised that when Bell let her hand go she for a moment missed that warmth.

"The Hostess of Fertility." He said as he ushered her to go first.

"Hey Rich boy back again! Ryuu! Sit anywhere you like." Mia called out.

"I see you're known here." Naza said as she walked over to a table at the corner.

"Yea, this was the first place I visited when I first arrived here in Orario. And I think I've become their favorite customer and then some." Bell said as Naza just quirked an Eyebrow at that last part.

"Hello Caelum, Naza. What can I get you today?" Ryuu asked.

"I'll just have some water while I browse the menu for the moment please." Bell said to his waitress and fellow "employee" Naza also saying the same thing.

"So, it seems you're quite popular here Caelum." Naza said as she grabbed her water.

"In more ways then one." Bell responded as he found something on the menu.

"That means?"

"Well... I work here.. sort of.. once." Bell responded trying to find the proper words. But see his friends questionable expression he responded.

"Well it was back when I stopped the Soma Familia, As you may remember I ran out on the check here, then I got pickpocketed the day after, so I came here asking if I could work my tab off to which they agreed." He responded.

"And he's the best cook we have, you should have seen the explosion of customers and money we made when Bell here was cooking, he's a five star cook through and through. In fact some of the menu items under new are all his recipes from home." Came the reply of a new voice.

"Syr!" Bell said surprised.

"Ah, Well Bell helped me make breakfast today and it was definitely good, I can imagine him being a cook." Naza said with humor in her voice, the thought of a prince reduced to a life of a cook. She couldn't help but make a quip about it, to which Bell just grumbled though then joke went over Syr' head.

"So, what do you recommend I should try from Bells home?" Naza asked Syr.

"I'm partial to the spaghetti myself, but the Fish is the favorite of some of our employees, the steak is great as well."

"I see. Thank you." Naza said as Syr left. Once Ryuu came back they ordered.

"I'll take the steak please, Caelum here is paying for me after all." She said to her amusement of Bell' surprised look, Ryuu then asked for Bell' order.

"The spaghetti please." Ryuu. Once Ryuu left Bell decided to ask something to the Woman.

"Hey Naza, do you mind if you'd start calling me Bell?"

"Why?"

"Well I'm not against being called Caelum but I'd like my friends to call me by my first name please," He asked.

"Alright then.. Bell." To which Bell smiled at this, the two friends continued to talk about various things about them or about orario, until their food came out. Naza was greatly surprised by the food, and seeing her expression Bell couldn't help but give a smile of pride for his home.

"Bell this is amazing!" Naza said as she could only savoir the Lucian Meal, the meal itself a rare thing for the woman due to Familia Finances.

"I'm glad Lucian Cuisine is to your liking." Bell simply said as he to began to eat his meal. The two enjoying each others company of friendship as well as enjoying their meals. It was only when they were nearly finished did Bell break that silence.

"Hey Naza, you remember when I gave you one of my healing potions?" Bell ask and he knew she did when her attention was focused solely on him. "Well I am in need of some ingredients to make some more, and was wondering if you'd like to learn the secret to make them?" Bell knew that answer right away when she jumped up from her seat her ears perking and her tail wagging quite swiftly and her saying.

"YES!" of course this was so loud and caused such a scene that the other people, including the staff all stopped what they were doing to stare, Naza was to excited by the prospect of what bell had offered that she didn't even notice, but Bell sure did as he looked around the place, the silence deafening except for the brief rustles of naza' cloths making sounds as her tail was still wagging.

Slowly one Woman began to clap her hands, her compatriots soon fallowing suite soon all the customers sans the staff were clapping, this clapping brought Naza out of her excitement as she looked around then at Bell who made a face that told her "I don't know". Then the Woman who started the whole thing said.

"Congratulations on the new engaged couple!" She yelled out and the whole place came alive with not just clapping but whistles and cheers.


Neither Bell nor naza said anything as they walked out of the hostess of Fertility, Naza with a stone cold expression while Bell had the blush of embarrassment. Neither said a word for ten minutes as they both walked silently towards the market area, It wasn't until Bell saw the Market that he finally broke the silence.

So As I was saying I'll need help in getting the ingredients for my Elixirs, that's what I call them instead of Potions." he said as naza just nodded

"So what is the first thing we need?" Naza asked.

"Well, we need a few herbs and spices, some fruits as well, but the biggest thing we need is soda."

"What's soda?" Naza asked.

'Shit'

"I'll explain when we get home but right now let's go get what we need, fruits the most important." Bell said as Naza nodded.


Bell and Naza has returned home with their arms full of bags of the needed ingredients. Naza' face full of eagerness like a kid on his birthday.

"Ahh Bell, Naza, back from your date, I hope Bell treated you like a gentleman?" Miach asked as he walked to the entrance from the back of the shop.

Hearing his words Naza have Bell quite the firm kick to get him to straighten things out.

"Listen Lord Miach about what I said about Naza asking me out on a date." Bell began to speak But was interrupted by Miach.

"It's alright you two, you don't have to say anything, I'm happy for you Naza, Bell is truly a fine man for you to love, and I'm not saying this because he's Royal, a man like Bell is something so rare, Loyal, determined, putting others before himself, willing to put himself I. Harms way for his friends. Bell!" Miach said as he put his hands on his shoulders.

"I give you my blessing to date Naza, she deserves so much happiness in her life, and in you Bell I put my trust and hope that you can give her a happiness that only a lover can provide." Miach told him, that last bit with a fatherly smile. Bell to surprised and humbled to actually say that he was wrong in what he thought.

As Naza looked equally surprised at Miach' words, a small blush adorned her cheeks, not because of the thought of her and Bell, no. It was because of how much she meant to Miach. She was so engrossed in this thought she didn't notice until Miach came to her and did the same thing with Bell. His hands on her shoulder he told her his mind.

"Naza, You've lost so much and suffered so much, you've stayed with me through all of our Familia' blessings and hardships. I know the years have been hard on you the most, and for that I can never make that up to you, but you've found someone Naza! Someone who sees you for the amazing woman you are, I know you don't see him as some Royal, and I know he'll cherish you Naza."

"Naza. The day you lost your arm and the others brought you home, I was never more terrified then I was seeing you there almost dead, the image still haunts me, you were dead for three minutes Naza, for those three minutes it felt like an eternity. And for that eternity I stood there and all that I could think about were the things you wouldn't get to experience. The things you lost out on, but the the thing I kept on thinking as you laid there dead was that you would never experience love. Never getting to experience what it means to fall in love, the embrace of someone who loves you, the touch of a lover, marrying and starting a family." Miach said, sorrow now in his voice as Naza began to cry, but rooted to the ground. Bell would still tell Miach, but he knew this was something that needed to be said, and he just sat at the table, looking on.

"When the other members of our Familia left it hurt me to see them go, but it hurt me even worse to see you here, choosing to stay, I wanted you to go with them, you needed their friendship and companionship more then the company of a poor and destitute god. And ever since the day you chose to stay with me, I would sometimes look out the window here when you came back from your trips to the guild and market, and I'd have this fantasy that there beside you was a boyfriend or a husband, with maybe a couple of kids swinging off his arms, and as you saw me out the window, you'd just have this smile on your face and life back into your eyes, the expression that I would give anything for you to have, the smile of happiness, true happiness. I never wanted you to stay with me Naza, I always wanted something more for you then this run down moldy Pharmacy that can never be paid off. I wanted you to have someone to love, to have a family of your own." Miach confessed to Naza who was now freely crying her hand over her mouth, Bell long since standing behind her, his hand on her shoulder.

"Naza, Bell can give you that, Promise me you'll embrace that, don't run from that, let him into your heart, open your heart and give him the chance to bring you the happiness I could never give you. Make a life of your own, and share it with Bell, share in each other's lives. Live happy Naza." Miach said as he just embraced Naza.

"M-M-Mich!" Naza cried into his shoulder.

"Shu, It's alright Naza." Miach told her

"M-Miach you stupid god!" She screamed into his chest as she left it and simply drove her lips right into Miach' the look of sheer and total surprise hit his face as the Woman just ravaged his lips with hers. Bell was surprised by this and had a blush on his face as he simply look away, never seeing a thing.

"How can you say all those things!? Our Familia abandoned you! They left at the first sign of trouble! You want to know why I stayed with you! Because of what you did for me! You never gave up on me, you always believed in me! You gave everything for me and I love you for that Miach! DO YOU HEAR ME I LOVE YOU MIACH!" Naza all but yelled her confession to him, tears no longer flowing but still the trailes still fresh,

"N-Naza!" Miach said shocked looking at Bell, he simply nodded to the god confirming her words.

"I've loved you the moment you saved my life Miach, All that you've said, the amount you care for me makes me love you even more, you're the one I want to spend my life with! You're the one who makes me happy, and you're the one whom I'll always love!" Naza screamed at him her whole heart out there for Mich.

"Say you love me back Miach, say the words I've always longed for, dreamed of, make me the happiest woman in all of Orario no! The world! Let me love you Miach the way I've always loved you, let me share my life with you." She said, starring right into Miach' soul pleading for his response and return of her affection.

"I-I thought you and Bell."

"No Lord Miach, we are not." Bell simply said.

"Naza, you know how I felt about you, I want you to live a life with someone, I want you to have a family, to share in life's hardships and blessings, and most of all I want you to grow old with the people you love, the life of mortals are mere half blinks to us gods, you deserve better then what I could ever offer you.

"No Miach! You're the one I choose! To hell with you being a god, I don't care about that!"

"I know Naza, but I can't give you what you ask for, what life is that, where a mortal loves a god, the mortal never able to share in love, of fear, of mortality. Of sharing death together. Naza I can't give you happiness, I can't give you children, I can't give you what you should have in life."

"Miach please! Naza wept, I don't care! As long as I'm with you and love you I don't care about any of those things! Just as long as I'm with you." She said.

"Naza." Miach said sorrowfully looking at the woman before him.

"Please Miach, accept my feelings."


And here is the next chapter. I played with Bell and Naza a little bit since they were the original parring. Anyway will Miach accept Naza' feelings? Leave your thoughts in the review section

This is the longest Chapter yet! A grand total of 9'025 words Anyway I'm planning to work on The Legend Of Bell Cranel some, But I'm going to work on a two shot Halloween special for Danmachi. I've done a Vampire one shot for Danmachi, so I've got an idea for something else entirely. I've already thought up the ending. Hopefully laziness and College won't get in the way because I plan to post the special before Halloween.

I think your all going to enjoy it a lot! No spoilers but it is going to be a mystery.
