Three years and Seven months later
4 year old Bell looked up at his mother "Mommy can you train me"
Alfia clicked her tongue "Child i told you to call me mother not Mommy and train you"
Bell nods "I want to fight like you and uncle Zald can Grandpa say's you will train me"
Well seem i have to talk to your Grandpa now
Thirty minutes later
Alfia and Zald looked at the beaten up and bruised Zeus "I am sorry but i just wanted him to learn some self defense" he proclaimed
You damm leacher you are planning to make him an adventurer telling him stories and filling his head with delusion
Hey i am just telling him stories like a Good Grandpa and it's not your decision to make. Bell should be the one to make his own life decision plus monster attacks are frequenting and we cannot stay in School district forever he will need Self defense lesson whether against People or Monsters
Alfia held up Zeus by his collar
Zald nods "The Old man has a point Alfia plus i got to leave him some kind of legacy expect stories plus the kid is enamored with Magic after he learned to read books and he could be a Magic researcher like his mother so you could start him on reading basic on magic "
Alfia sighed "Fine"
Zeus smiled
Zald looked at her "Alfia do remember that compared to you no one is talented as he will probably learn in Normal place"
Alfia nods
A Few minutes later
"Really you will start training me" Bell asked as his eyes had stars in them
Zald nods "I'll handle your Physical Conditioning along with Basic Hand to Hand Combat and Basic Swordsmanship while Alfia will handle your Survival training, Mental training and Weapons Training plus once you are advance enough Combat training as well"
Bell nods "Thanks Uncle"
Zald grinned "Oh you wont be thanking us much trust me"
Two weeks later, Alfia sighed "That boy has no Talent at all just like her seem i even stole his talent before he was even convinced"
Zeus shakes his head "Don't say that plus he is learning quickly"
Zald nods "Yeah Bell doesn't have any Talent at all but he has outstanding learning capability i mean he quickly grasp any lesson taught to him and improve his skillsat an astonishing rate i think he may have some of your abilities Alfia he could maybe copy some move after seeing them we can train and build up on that"
POV Orario
A 5 year Old Lilruca Arde looked as she in Guild she wanted to tell on the Soma Familia but was too afraid as she didn't know what to do now
"Can i help you in anything Little girl" A Kind voice spoke
She turned around to see a Teenage Red Haired Wolf girl
I umm Adventurer and you see
Are you an Adventurer
Lili made her decision as she nodded as she wanted to try being an Adventurer "Ues"
I see but aren't you a bit young
No i don't think so and my parent are dead so i need to be an Adventurer now and i am a Prum we always look young
Sorry for you loss i guess you must be a new Familia if they accepted you so young
I am in the Soma Familia and so were my parents
I see then are you getting any training
No not really
Do you want to
I can get training
Yes other Familia offer training for some money while some like Ganesha Familia give them for free so newbie don't die
Oh can i join them
Sure you can join them from tomorrow
Thanks
Well let get you registered them and i can be your advisor
Lili nods
Few Days later
Lili entered the Soma Familia Armory as she wanted some gear for herself
Oe what are you doing here kid
She turned back and saw a dwarf there "Ihit-san"
Uhh yeah so why are you here
I wanted to get a spear and some Armor
Really you want to go in the dungeon
Well i need to make money for myself
Uhh don't tell me if you die hmm he looked around as the dwarf then grabbed a Old looking spear and some small clothes
Here wear these
What happening here
They turn to see their Vice Captain Zanis Lustra
Chandra shrugs "The kid wanted to try and go in the dungeon so gave her some weapon"
As per the rule they extra item should be sold for Familia funds
"Yeah but who the hell is going to buy these crap" as Chandra held a worn out spear and a dirty looking leather armor for pallum
If it's scarp sure she can take him as the man went away
Ihit looked at Lili "Girl take my advice hide everything from that Man and never trust him ok he is dangerous"
Lili nods
Also if you are ever offer Soma's alcohol once you become legal age don't drink it or you will be like the rest of us stuck here
Oh ok
Anyway this leather armor here is not much just wear it under your normal clothes and this spear is a bit special the Tip is made form Adamantite
What that
Don't tell anyone it looks worn out but if a Blacksmith sharpens it then it can become a first class weapon
Lili nods
If you want to remain with you make sure it never looks good or new ok
Ok
Now scram and before you go to dungeon train and read hard also hide your money
One year later
Astraea looked as she was in a Village nearby checking out an Anomaly along with her Familia as originally the Loki Familia were supposed to go but Fels then reported that he had spotted the surviving Zeus and Hera Familia so instead Astraea was sent to avoid any potential fight
Hmm i do fell a Strange power here
She looked as the wind picked up as it formed a cocoon as soon a child fell on the ground
Astraea went up to the kid as the child opened her eye
Hello there young one my name is Astraea are you hurt
Wher is māmā and pāpa?
That very old Kione Ic eom sory, ic ne wāt, hwæt is þīn nama, cniht. [I am sorry, i don't know, what is you name child]
Ais
Þæt is fæger nama; hwæt sind þīn fæder and mōdor nama þonne? [That is a nice name what are your parent named then]
Albert and Aria Waldstein
Astraea blinked "Cūþe þū me secgan hu þū her gecōm swīðe and hwæt hæfde ǣr?"[Could you tell me how you got here exactly and what happened before]
The girl eye then widen like if she got her memory back as her eye teared
Astraea hugged her "Hēy, hēy, hit is ġōd, sċh; gif hit is tō micel, nā ned þæt þū me secge, ġōd?"[Hey hey it ok shh if it hard no need to tell me ok]
At night
POV Bell Location Education district Housing
Bell and Alfia were now laying on the roof of their home watching the stars "Mom why do you look so sad dose it have to do anything with the man you met yesterday"
You saw huh
I watched from the corner he talked with you and Uncle Zald plz tell me mommy just once
Bell it just that the Time is here
What do you mean Mommy
Don't call me that
I don't care mom is mom and you are mommy
I have a choice to make either i chose you or "Evil" if i chose Evil then i will become a being who destroys everything, paints order into chaos and questions Justice while perhaps killing many but becoming the Springboard for the Next generation of heroes by taking away what is precious to many, making them resent us, making them hate us and finally spurring them to transcend themself and in turn entrusting them the future to save the world
Bell looked at her he knew Evil and Good form what he was taught and from grandpa stories but he felt like Evil his mother was talking about was vastly different and as a child he didn't get all of the talk but he understood his mom had a difficult choice to make
However the world may be destroyed because we didn't chose Evil
Why
Because the Last Hero may not ever be born
He looked at her for a while seeing more shame than regret as Infront of him was a conflicted and fragile Alfia
Bell looked as he made up his mind "Then mom i'll become the Last hero mom i'll do for you if you don't have to chose" as unbeknownst to anyone Bell had made a promise of a lifetime more to himself then anyone else
Alfia looked at him a bit taken back at the fierceness of his voice as it did not belong to a Child even if they trained him from Childhood
You Cheeky Child you side you will be a Hero Infront of me you should prepare yourself i wont hold back anymore start form tonight you real training start
From tonight
Yes i wonder what should i do first maybe tie you up in a rock and throw you in the Swimming pool or overboard this ship to make you fell the sensation of death or fight you like a monster would and assault your body
How is that training
Fool. If you don't know the boundaries between life and death then you won't know your limits. In order for you to become a hero you have to Surpass your limits leave them in the dust
But aren't Limits
Nope Limits are nothing but an Obstacle you need to surpass Bell an you will have to do it over and over again never stopping
If it mean you will be safe then i will do it mom
Hmm we will see if you last but for tonight let's stay like this ok
Bell nods
A While later
Zald looked at her "Have you made your decision"
Alfia nods "Tell him we will do it i don't want Bell to ever be apart of that accursed Hunt again"
Are you sure
Yes But we will only leave Bell a few days before the attack he can tell the us plan that accompany this
Alfia stay i will do this alone
You wont be enough
I will i am Level 8 now plus we been training for Six years
Alfia nods it was true as under Zeus suggestion She and Zald had been regularly training with each other just in case for an Ambush by Loki and Freya Familia plus Zeus had got them roots from the Elven tree along with Special herbs grown by Spirit's which easier their condition plus the medicines from the School district, Altena andHermes had made for them also eased their pain and Zald also eat a the OEBD Scale that had some meat on it as it allows them to regain their power as now their statswere already in C rank. And a year ago Leon also joined them in their training to increase his power as well for the future if he ever needed to fight the Dragon
Zald smiled "It time we kick up our training then"
Alfia sighed "We have to out outside for that luckily we are fats enough to get in an out of the ship even if it is moving"
Zald nods "I wanted to request a Grimoire as well i will make sure i do enough damage for both of us"
Alfia smiled "I will beat magic into you Old man"
One year later
Bell smiled happily holding a paper "Look Mama look i made it in the school"
Alfia smiled "You did and all on your own we didn't influence their decision in anything"
This is so great will i get Baldr sensei Falna now
I think you will Bell
Mom just look i will get a super healing magic to cure you
Alfia held a small smiles "I am sure you will Bell"
A While later, Alfia, Zald, Zeus and Baldr were in Baldr's office
Bell looked as Baldr finished engraving his Falna onto Bell's back
Baldr smiled "All done and seem you have one skill" here looked as he led out the paper
Bell looked at his paper and smiled

]
Zald whistled "Basically your skill but better and less taxing on the body"
Alfia nods "Well this will give him the edge"
Bell smiled "Do you have the same skill mommy"
Alfia nods "Yes i do but yours is way better"
POV Lili
Lili looked as she was getting her status updated though she had been having a bad month as she was angry at her treatment at the hand of her Familia as most tried tosteal the Little amount of money she made when she came back from the dungeon though thankfully a good news was that Zanis didn't make her their supporter like planned since she made more money and could pay the man more for her status update if she worked though yesterday in the dungeon she had snapped and beat all the Lower Levelmonster black and blue killing them with her own hands for many hours until she calmed down as currently she was getting her status updated
This is a surprise you got a Skill, Magic and Development ability

Lili smiled "This is great"
Seems you are using you Magic very much
Yes Ardee-san and Shakti-san showed me how powerful my magic is in combat since i can take the form of any species i was to get their benefit's so i been going all out in using my magic
You are a weird one most Pallum focus on Agility and Dexterity but you focus on Strength and Endurance like a dwarf and use magic like an Elf
Agility and dexterity will come Naturally with ym fighting style so i need to focus more on my weakness Afterall i need to survive in this word
You can go now
Lili went out as she took her spear and headed for the dungeon
Three days later
Lili was on level 13 as she felt dungeon shook as she heard a roar from the 12th floor but the dungeon shook again as she waited it settled the floor the cracked as she look to see a from the Walls a Silvered Hard Armored appear from the cleaning as it was a Giant compared to other
"Wraaaaaa" the beast roared as with speed surpassed other it hit Lili smashing her into the wall breaking her chest plate but her S-rank endurance stood
"Fuck" Lili though as she jumped and ran while she readied her spear
A While later
"Haaaaa" shouted Red eyed Lili as she punched her Hard Armored face over and over again until it skull caved in
She breath hard as she was heavily injured as she took her broken spear and put it through the small gaps in it amour and stabbed the manic crystal as the monsterpoffed leaving only a Crystal and it's shell
Just then she felt someone grab her as she looked up to see a Red Haired girl
Three hours later
Lili woke up as she looked around to see she was in Guild as she had someoem on her hand as she loekd to see Rose ther
Ehh Rose-san wakeup
Rose opened her eyes "You are awake" as she hugged her
You scared me
Thank you Rose-san but what happened
A new healer form the Freya Familia found you injured on the 13th floor i heard there were some irregularity in the dungeon
I think so why
Because the new adventurer form the Astraea Familia fought a Black Dragon
Dose anyone know about me
No they think you are a newbie caught up in the attack i know you don't like fame due to your Familia
Thanks
Oh she also brough in your dungeon loot and monster crystal now what the hell were you thinking
I was not it was either stay in the 13 and fight that Hard armor to go in the 12 to fight that dragon or go further into the dungeon i chose the safest bet
Well i can fault you for that anyway you armor is gone now but i have this
As she held the pieces of shell left by the irregular monster
I can use that
You can make a new amour from this and better one
Thanks but who
The Goibnui Familia can do it for cheaper than Hephaestus Familia and with you saving i am sure you can invest in better armor
Ok
At Night in 12 o clock
Lili had finished her patrol around the castle as she sneaked into Soma's room as she found Soma was mixing his new Alcohol so she waited
One hour later

Two days later
Goibnui looked at Lili as she was talking to her for the armor since it was an irregular monster drop item
Well i guess i can make it look a bit old anyway form the Material i can make you a set of Light Armor
Thanks
Come in two weeks
Lili nods
One year later
POV Bell
Mommy when will uncle return
I don't know Bell
Just then the door knock
Zeus opened it to see Zald there
"Uncle" Bell squealed as he hugged him
How are you Bell
Great
Zeus looked at him "Did you not go through"
Zald shook his head "I did now Lets talk later"
At night
So i went through and fought Gareth, Riveria, Astraea Familia and the Captain of the Ganesha Familia named Shakti after fighting with them for hours a Level 7 Ottar joined the fight
That Boar became Level 7
According to Hermes Ottar fought a Monster spawned on the 39th floor by Erebus an Irregular Udeaus and became level 7"
I used up last Mind and heal Potion fighting all of them in a deadly battel near the end almost ran out of mind and some Berserk Prum also joined and i was supposedlydefeated after that Hermes took my body where he healed me and helped me escape"
Alfia nods as she sighed "Just one level 7 but something is better than nothing"
Zeus nods "It not just that Ottar fought me alone for a while and all of the other level up as well Riveria and Gareth became level 6, Astraea Familia all turned 4 but one kid form the Astraea familia named Ais turned level 3 despite being so young i think she was 9 or 10 and Shakti well her god wasn't nearby by"
Well seem we got the best result
Zeus nods "Also i think we need to talk to Ouranos and Baldr if we want Zald to remain here after the news of his deeds spread"
Alfia smiled "Seems the Magic you gained form the Grimoire helped you a lot"
Zald nods remembering the Self Healing Magic he got from the Grimoire as the Magic removed any and all abnormalities form his body and put his body in a constant state of regeneration meaning as long as the magic was on he could fight at his peak at which he was equal to that of a Advance Level 9 maybe juts turned Level 10 though hehad to drink a lot of Mind Elixir to keep fighting and pushing each and every one of them way past their limit
POV Lili
Lili was in her room resting as a few days ago she had fought against the Evilus Grunt's and monster's as she had gotten a lot injured even with her Magiv and Skill in full power which made her Advance level 4 maybe higher as she had gotten a lot injured especially when she saved Ardee form the Child that was about to slit her throatas when Lili hit the child the child along with other exploded as she protected Ardee but got badly hurt which increased her Rage and made her more powerful as in that state she continued fighting as she had more than enough clarity to drink all the Health and Mind potion's she had snatched form the Dain chet Familia Store during thecommotion as she also gave instruction to other Adventurer on the Battlefield something she was used to giving advice to level 1 Soma Familia member and ever since herintelligence was found she had become the newbies and lower level chief strategist and in the end she had fought alongside some other adventurer to fight someone namedZald and lost when she fell down from mind down along with lot of Bruns, stabs, cuts and broken bones as if it weren't for Airmid miraculous Magic and Ardee magic plusskill she would have died
Lili looked at her destroyed Armor that once consisted of a Battel Clothes along with Helmet, armguards, Chest plate, arm guards, hip guards, knee guards, and boots though her Helmet was still in one piece but cracked all over as she was also thankful that she had pushed herself hard in the middle floor mainly since the SomaFamilia were all level 1 who didn't go there so she had always went past the 13th floor and fought monster for hours on end from day till night as she had more freedomthere she practically stayed in the dungeon as most of the time she would only put on a Helmet and take in Health and mind potion as she didn't wear amour much since she wanted to increase her endurance plus a few months ago she also bought Gloves since she started fighting monster Unarmed as well to improve her strength and dexterity much alongside her other status
She went to Zanis and paid the man as she went to soma for her update

Thanks
Do you want to max out your stats again like last time
No i just don't want to attract attention
They why don you always max out your stats so you don't level up fast
Good idea thank you Soma-sama
Lili was grateful for the idea but she knew she was probably going to max out soon since as she planned to avoid her Familia for a while just in case someone found out she was so powerful as while her helmet was still intact but she could not take chances
