Orario was in uproar about what happened yesterday. A first class was completely trounced by a fresh rookie. Vana Freya had lost to a newbie from the Loki familia. Everyone was at the gates of Twilight Manor to ask about the boy. The guards were having a hard time trying to keep them out. The boy, he was currently inside the library with Riveria. She was teaching the boy about the lower world as there were still some things he didn't quite understand.

Bell: So this "Black Dragon" has been terrorizing mankind for millennia?

Riveria: That's right, the world is still waiting for a hero to defeat it.

Bell: That's what I don't get. Why does it have to be a hero?

Riveria: That's just how it works. Only a hero is strong enough to beat it.

Bell: But if I heard right, that dragon can't be much stronger than High Miasma Crawlers and those things can get strong.

Riveria: Well, Tartarus isn't meant for the living so it's only right that there are stronger creatures there.

Bell: Yeah but compared to others there somewhere below the middle at best.

Riveria remained composed, but her inner self was screaming at how ridiculous this boy was.

Riveria: (Just how strong is he?)

With class done, Bell went out to explore the city. He came to the square near Babel and looked at some of the food stalls. Bell still had plenty of money on him so he went to try them all out. Some winners were meat kabobs and those potato snacks he had earlier. Things were fine until he heard a scream. He went to see what was wrong when he saw a couple. One woman was crying over a man on the ground who had a sword stuck in him. There were Ganesha familia members holding another person down on the ground.

Ganesha Member A: Don't try to fight!

Woman: NOOOO! PLEASE HOLD ON!

She was crying out as her husband bled out. Some went to see but the wound was too severe and there were no healers nearby. The man passed away leaving the poor woman to wail. As this happened, Bell observed the circumstances.

Bell: From what I could see, this was an accident so there should be no problem.

He walked up to the body and looked to it's right where the woman was. Everyone looked at the bou who looked like he was looking at a ghost. What they didn't know was that they were right. Bell was communicating with the man's soul. He told him that he could bring him back to which the man agreed.

Woman: What are you doing?

Bell: Just wait, I promise to be quick.

Bell raised his hand forward as a sparkling orb formed in his hand. He then closed it and absorbed the orb. Bell then pointed his index and middle finger towards the body as a dark beam of energy came out of his hand. Those who saw this tried to stop him but the pressure they felt made them freeze. Bell had trouble covering his pressure when he was working so some of it leaked out causing many to either shake uncontrollably or faint. After 40 seconds, the man's wound closed and his eyes opened.

Man: What the? Am I alive?

Woman: HONEY! YOU'RE ALIVE!

Bell let them have their touching reunion but eventually had to interrupt to give them important information.

Bell: Sir, since I had to resurrect you and repair your body, you will have to take it easy for a few days.

Man: Why? I feel fine.

Bell: Well I had to re anchor your soul to your body. If you do something overly strenuous then the bindings could break and your soul will leak out and leave your body behind.

The two shuddered at the thought but nevertheless thanked the boy.

Woman: How can I repay you for bringing him back to me?

Bell: Just keep living. Everyone else is doing that.

Man: We will, and thank you again.

Bell: It's fine.

Bell left for his home while others couldn't even speak. This random boy had just done the impossible. Not only that, he did it in a manner that made it seem like he's done it thousands of times. Like it's as natural as eating three times a day. And so, news of this also spread throughout the city. Meanwhile, a red haired goddess had to deal with the threat of war as she found out her newest recruit had bullie- beaten a member of Freya's familia and a first class at that.

Bell returned to his room to freshen up before returning to the Hostess for dinner.

Bell: (I hope Miss Ryuu will be there. She seems nice.)

Bell went to tell Loki he was eating out tonight. After that, he made his way to the pub and was greeted by Anya.

Anya: Oh, white hair nya. Just you?

Bell: Yes, just one please.

She led him to a seat near the bar. As she sat him, she went to the kitchen where a certain elf was hiding.

Anya: He's all yours nya.

She smirked at the elf and winked at her before leaving to tend to other tables. Ryuu tried to compose herself but all the teasing from last time was getting to her and her face was slightly flushed.

Ryuu: (Why am I acting like this?)

Ryuu: H-Hello Bell.

Bell: Hi Miss Ryuu. Can I get the same as before?

Ryuu: Right away.

She left for the kitchen and placed the boy's order. Mama Mia knew the girl for a while and she never saw her act all nervous like this. She figured this could be a good thing so she gave her a push.

Mama Mia: Ryuu, you can take your break now.

Ryuu: But Mama, I-

Mama Mia: Can't leave the boy hanging like that.

She smirked at the elf. Ryuu blushed as she realized what her boss was up to.

Ryuu: (This woman...)

She walked to Bell's table and sat next to him. Bell saw her and smiled, he was glad his friend was here.

Bell: Hi, good to see you Miss Ryuu.

Ryuu: H-Hello.

Her cheeks were faintly red but she was able to keep her composure. Bell talked about what happened recently. Ryuu was astonished at the boy.

Ryuu: You resurrected someone? That can't be true.

Bell: It is, I swear. The guy died in an accident so I brought him back.

Ryuu: That isn't something one can day so casually.

Bell wasn't sure what the problem was until he recalled something Lucifer told him years ago.

Bell: (Right, they don't understand how death works.)

Bell: I guess that's true, sorry.

Ryuu: Ah, d-don't worry it's fine. I was just surprised, your magic must be quite powerful.

Bell: Well, I've been training since I was young so I hope that's the case.

Ryuu just laughed slightly as the night continued. Mama Mia watched from the corner of her eye as the cold elf was finally enjoying herself.

Mama Mia: (Guess it was the elf who was seduced and not the other way around.)

Dinner ended and Bell finished his meal. He played Mama Mia and said goodbye.

Bell: I'm gonna be heading down deeper in the dungeon tomorrow so I'll be going to get some rest now. Thank you for the food.

Ryuu: Bye and be safe Bell.

They said their goodbyes and Bell left for Twilight Manor. He would get a good rest in preparation for tomorrow while an elf was dreaming about rabbits.

AN: Sorry this took longer than it should have. I took a break yesterday as when I got back from vacation my whole family was beat. Waking up early along with the 7 hour car drive made me want to hang myself.

Anyway, the special is coming along soon and as for the poll. With over double the views, Reincarnation of Talent will be the next story I work on. I'll stop with the teasers there until I somehow manage to finish one of them. Instead I'll just post a work with all my future ideas in mind. If I had a bot that could read my mind and write some of these down for me life would be amazing.

That's all from me for now, I hope you enjoyed and I'll see you in the next one.
