Bab 4: Chapter 4: first night-shift
| Some alleyway - Orario |
"AAAAHHH!!"
*Clank*
"We got a problem? This mongrel a friend of your?" The adventurer with the mean eyes asked while sheathing his sword.
"EH? No, I've never met her before." Said the white haired boy while waving his hands to deny the man's claim with his black dagger still in his hand.
"Then why are you trying to help her?" Said the man in spite, glaring at the boy.
"Well, because she's a girl." answered the boy innocently.
"Well, that's a stupid reason to die" He said unsheathing his sword again. And leaped at the boy attempting to slash him, while the boy took a defensive stance trying to block the man's attack.
But a golden disc of light flew thru the air hitting the man's sword with such great force that the man had to jump back from the impact. And then a cold voice echoed in the alleyway.
"That's enough." And both of them turned to the source. And then they saw 2 people that were standing atop some stairs. Staring down at the duo.
One was a beautiful elf with green hair, donning a maid outfit. While the other seemed to be a human girl(?) with wavy golden hair running down to her(?) knees, the hair was braided on both sides. She(?) Had contrasting eyes of red and golden but was wearing a waiter outfit.
The elf continued "please, crossing swords in the city limits. You two ought to be ashamed."
'Okay so how did we end up in this situation, you might ask. Well it all started when-'
.
| Flashback - Hostess of fertility |
"Alright girls lets close up!! We need to prepare for the adventurers!! Ryuu!! Go to the market and fetch some ingredients. Here's the list." Mama Mia ordered everyone to prepare and asked Ryuu to do some shopping
"Alright, can Miq come with me? Then he can acquaint and familiarise with the shopkeepers" Mama Mia nodded to Ryuu's request but picked up a tiny detail.
"Miq?? Already using nicknames I see. You two are getting quite close already aren't you." Mama Mia teased but Ryuu kept her pokerface up.
"Yes, Miq is easier to pronounce than Miquella. Now if you'll excuse us." She said before leaving with Miquella by her side.
.
"So where are we going Ryuu?" Miquella asked curiously.
"We are going to the market area." She answered. Before taking a look at the list Mama Mia gave her.
"We need to get some vegetables for tonight's dishes, but that's all."
And like that we went to the market area while Miquella asked some questions here and there. And when they arrived, Miquella was amazed how huge it was.
There were all kinds of shops left and right. Fish, meat, snacks, fruit, vegetables. Everything was there.
They went to a few shops. Got the things Mama Mia asked for and made some small talk with the shopkeepers. They were really friendly. but what Miquella didn't like was was the continually stare that was directed at me.
'I know they are just curious gazes but they're making me feel uncomfortable.'
But just as a stare was directed at Miquella, Ryuu glared back at the person responsible which made them stop.
'Hehehe. At moments like these she really looks like Melania.'
After they were done they went back to the bar until they heard something unexpected. That should not be allowed in the city premise.
| Flashback ends |
"AAAAHHH!!"
*clanck*
Yes they heard a sword hitting something. And with a quick look at each other, they went to the source of the noise. While they were running they heard two people who were talking about something but Miquella couldn't hear them. And then when the duo arrived the man with the sword was charging at a boy with White hair and ruby red eyes. His appearance reminded the child of a white rabbit. But that was besides the point at the moment.
To quickly diffuse the situation, Miquella fired a disc of light at the sword. When the disc and the sword connected, the disc disappeared but the adventurer had to take a step back.
Ryuu was quite surprised when she saw that Miquella had fired some type of magic but quickly recovered herself form her shock. She could ask him later. Then she said in a cold voice.
"That's enough" And both man turned to us. Ryuu continued.
"please, crossing swords in the city limits. You two ought to be ashamed." But the man wasn't having it, it seemed.
"And you ought to keep your fat mouth shut, Now beat it before-" But he couldn't finish his question before another disc of light was thrown at him. But this time with a tint of red in it.
"Be quiet" Miquella said coldly, glaring at the man. His eyes glowing menacingly in a golden-red colour. Ryuu continued.
"We shouldn't be resorting to violence, i tend to get carried away sometimes." All three of us shivered when she finished her sentence. The man looked away and seemed to be pondering before leaving.
"Skank" And then he left
...
"haa" The white haired boy sighed to relief his tension before turning his gaze back at us. Ryuu was heading towards him and i followed.
When we were by his side the boy thanked us.
"Now that was pretty awesome, thank you for saving me."
"We probably shouldn't have interfered." Ryuu said with little emotion
"Oh, that girl. Where did she...go." The boy said confused.
"Which girl?" Miquella asked curiously.
"Well, a girl bumped into me while running away from that man. But she tripped because of me and he wanted to hurt her so I blocked him... But now I don't know where she went. Must've gotten scared and ran off" We looked around a little but couldn't find anyone.
"Well, thanks anyway. But who might you be?" The boy asked me, but Ryuu answered in my stead.
"Bell this is Miquella. A new employee for the Hostess of fertility. And I was showing him around the market area. And Miquella this is Bell Cranell. A level one adventurer belonging to the Hestia familia." Ryuu introduced us to each other.
"Hello, Mister cranell. Pleased to make you acquaintance." Miquella said excitedly.
"Ah, likewise Miss Miquella" Bell replied, but short after silence ensued.
Ryuu was trying her hardest not to laugh, and this was evident by her shaking shoulders and that she put her hand on her mouth. Miquella glared at her but she looked away. While this was happening, bell had an expression that showed he didn't understand what was going on.
"WELL!! Listen up Bell!!" Miquella didn't even bother using honourifics this time.
"I. AM. A. BOY." And silence ensued once more.
This time bell was dumbfounded.
"EH?? With that kind of face? No way." He denied it.
"But i am." Miquella said in a serious tone. Seeing that Miquella was serious, Bell paled at the revelation.
"Wow... Life is so unfair." He said.
"Anyway bell, Syr would be extremely upset if you got hurt. Be careful." She warned him.
"Ah, right" Bell replied hastily.
"Well goodbye then, Mister Cranell." She said before walking away.
"Stay safe, Mister Bell." Miquella said, following Ryuu
"Thank you so much Miss Ryuu, Mister Miquella"
.
After the little incident the duo returned to the pub and filled in the others of what happened.
"Ohh, bell. Always getting in trouble. He worries me so much sometimes." Syr pouted.
"Hmm? You guys know him well?" Miquella asked curiously.
"Well, he comes by every morning to get his lunch that Syr gives to him personally." Ryuu answered.
"Hoo, so Syr has a thing for him huh?"
"Well, what if i do. You jealous?" Syr smiled teasingly and Ryuu glared lightly at her.
"Nope, not in the slightest." I answered truthfully.
"hmpf, you're no fun. At least i get some reaction from Ryuu."
"WHA-" But Ryuu was interrupted...again
"ALRIGHT EVERYONE!! WE'RE ABOUT TO OPEN UP!! SO GET READY!!" Mama Mia ordered them to get ready. The night shift was about to begin.
"Well, good luck Miq." Syr encouraged Miquella which was followed by Ryuu's
"Yes, don't get yourself into trouble."
"hehehe, thanks you guys." Miquella laughed before heading to the front.
He opened the door and saw a line of adventurers waiting to go inside.
"Please come in!! For how many people?" Miquella asked the first costumer with a smile.
He was in a daze for a little bit before recovering. and ordered "Can you give us a table for 5 please"
"Of course, follow me" And so his first night began.
And he has to say, the adventures were a fun bunch to be with. They're fun. They laugh a lot. But there are some mishaps, but nothing to note worthy. And what surprised Miquella the most was that everyone already knew him. But he didn't mind.
After everyone left and the employees cleaned the mess in the bar, Miquella went to his room and lay down on his bed after changing into a nightwear, which was his previously dirty robe that was now cleaned. Removed from the bloodstains.
And before he fell asleep he thought
'Today was fun.'

So I feel like shit and there might be some typos or something but i'm too lazy to proofread. So if you found some leave a comment and i'll correct it tomorrow, thanks.
Also Miq will be joining a familia after the war game between Hestia and Apollo which he will participate in. He can show off a little in the games. AND he will use his weapon there but the rest are spoilers. Also right now the Loki familia is winning and Hestia is in second.
Also question: Do i release his status already in the auxiliary volume or do i wait till then? AND
do i give the skills a description of what they do or not?
That's it
Anyway thx for reading, hope you enjoyed, Leave a comment, Leave a review. An some stones if you have to spare.

Bab 5: Chapter 5: Bell and the Chienthrope
'Fourth day of my transmigration to Orario. And my second day on the job. And gotta say, I got a lot of information last night. All tho the adventurers are dangerous, they provide great information. And Ryuu and Syr helped a little too. And right now I'm taking someone's order. Coincidentally, it was the same man as yesterday.'
"Nice day sir, what do I get you?" I said while looking at him.
"Hmm? It's still early so get me a coffee please. Black." He told me his order to which i noted on my pad.
"Coming right up." I said while walking back to the kitchen. It's still morning and not a lot of people are up yet. Only the adventurers who are going to the dungeon in droves and the shopkeepers, who are setting up their shops.
'And even some adventurers came here to get their lunch for today. Like that Bell I met yesterday. And Syr seems to interact with him a lot too. Maybe that's why Ryuu said that yesterday about Syr worrying about Bell. Oh well, The coffee is ready now so i should give it the the old man.' I thought before taking the little plate with the cup on it, and bringing it to the man.
"Thank you, son" He thanked me.
"Not a problem." I said with a smile. Which seemed to radiate light for the ones around us who saw my smile, while some straight up blushed. But Ryuu came the next moment, the moment she understood the situation. Which was immediately, she glared at all the people who stared at me.
'Wow, Ryuu is a great defence system.' I thought while smiling at her. And when she saw me, she blushed for but a second before returning to her usual face.
"You can take a break Meq. I'll take over. She said to me and then proceeding to walk towards the duo adventurers. They were probably here for their bento box.
'Anyway now that I got a little break, I should organise the information I got yesterday. So first off, I am in a city called Orario, which is also called the centre of the world. This is because of the dungeon, which is also the only dungeon in the world. And the dungeon is right under the cylinder-shaped tower that is called Babel. The city counts 8 districts with the tower right in the middle.
Now the more important and pressing one, familia's. Familia as it says is a sort of family that is under the leadership of a god. The members receive a falna from the god they serve and will then get a status. In the beginning they will be level but thru training and struggle in the dungeon they get excelia. which the falna will absorb or something and you get stronger. And your falna will update too it seems but I don't know how. And if you have enough excelia it then seems you can level up to the next level. But it seems to take a while to level up. Also i found out that there are a lot of familia's and gods but there are 2 who are at the top. Them being the Freya familia with the only level 7 adventurer ottar the king. And then there is the Loki familia who have a multitude of high ranking adventurers like Finn the braver and the up-and coming Ais the sword princess.
hmmm? If i want to become stronger I need a falna and to do that I need to join a familia. How bothersome. I don't know who would want a 12 year old kid. They will shut their door before I even have the chance to speak. But even if join the familia, what will happen with this job? Well I guess I can only take the nightshift and go to the dungeon in the morning. That way I can still work here and go adventuring. Anyway next topic. Gods.
Well I know Marika was a god and I a demi-god. But they don't seem to feel that. Probably because i'm not one anymore. But I can feel them tho. They release divinity. Probably to differentiate them from the mortals.I should ask Ryuu later on how to join a familia. I hope she can help.'
With my thoughts ending i went back to work, before Mama Mia begins to yell again.
Now that some time passed there were more people coming in. I went to the people who just came. I smiled at them.
And like the others, they were dazed.
...
It took a minute before i talked to them. "Uhm, table for two I presume"
And then the man snapped out of it and nodded. "Uh, yes."
I just nodded and said. "Then follow me."
Then i showed them their table and gave them their order.
"Thank you, Miquella."
"Yes, thank you."
"Hahaha, you're welcome." I said before walking to the next costumer.
.
After the cafe was closed, we were all cleaning up. I helped of course.
I put more space between the tables, so that if the adventurers were drunk they wouldn't run into each other, and it wouldn't turn physical.
While Ryuu was moving the table and I the chairs, Syr came to us.
"Hey, you guys. Do you want to accompany me to the market area? Mama Mia gave me a list of the things we will need but it's too much for me alone." Syr asked us.
"Sure." Ryuu answered before putting the table in place.
"Yeah sure, we're already done anyway." I said, shuffling the chairs under the table
"Allright!! lets go"
And like that we went to the market area. We bought the things on the list and went back. But as we were walking we walked past someone which i didn't even pay attention to, but then Ryuu spoke up.
"Wait a second, you, little Pallum. Let me see that knife you're hiding in your cloak." She said while looking at me. Giving me a signal with her eyes. [a/n I don't remember how to spell this race and on the wiki it was spelled like this so pls comment if i'm wrong.]
then looked at the knife in her hand and recognised the knife.
'Uh? Isn't that bell's knife?' And I then understood why Ryuu stopped her. Then I gave her a nod, readying my right hand.
"Ryuu?" Syr looked at Ryuu weirdly.
"I want to find out if it belongs to someone I know, who lost theirs" That clearly agitated the stranger as she started to shake a little.
"Y-you must be mistaken. This is mine. I'm sorry, but I can't help you." She said with a quieter voice at the end.
"Alright miss, give it to me. I know of only one guy with a knife of that design. And those markings are special too so I bet no other adventurer will want to invest such resources on a knife. And I'm very certain it's not yours." I said as i fired a disc of light at the knife.
It connected and the knife flew out of the girls hand. "AAHH!!" The knife landed on the ground while the girl ran away.
"Go after the girl, I'll get the knife." I said to Ryuu to which she nodded and went after her. Syr followed after Ryuu.
I just sighed and picked up the knife. 'Hmm, special markings indeed. What a masterpiece. I don't know what it does but it sure is a pretty good ability. Anyway I have to catch up.' I ended my inner dialogue as I went after the others.
After a while I saw them, and I spotted a new figure too. It was of course bell, helping what seemed to be a girl with animal ears.
After helping the girl bell immediately began to panick.
"HEY, have either of you found a knife around here!! It's jet black from top to bottom and it's really really really important to me!!" He exclaimed in one breath.
"Looks like this?" I came out of the alley, approaching the group.
"Huh? Miquella? That's it, my knife." *sniff* *sniff*
'Ah, shit' He began to tear up.
The next moment he rushed at me while crying.
"AAAAAHAHAHAA!! You found it!! Thank you so much Mister Miquella!! You're the best!!" He said while holding my hand.
And i just hit his head.
"No touching too much Bell. And here you go. Now you can go and hold Syr's hand." I said giving Syr a wink. To which she blushed. Amusing Ryuu.
"Please forgive me goddess. I swear I will never drop it again." Bell prayed for some reason but I just ignored it.
"So, where did the Pallum go?" I asked Ryuu.
"I don't know. When I came out of the alley i saw Mister Bell with this Cienthrope." She answered.
'A chienthrope huh?' I thought suspiciously.
"a Pallum? Were you chasing one?" Bell asked.
"Yes, She had your knife" I answered, But I saw the Chienthrope droop. And Syr saw it too.
"Anyway, we should really be going." Ryuu said
"uh? Okay, thanks again." He thanked us
And Syr walked up to the girl, while I went to give bell some advice.
"Bell, seems like you know her. Let me give you a piece of advice. Beware of the girl. Keep an eye on her." I said before walking over to Ryuu and Syr as she also was done talking to the girl. But before I joined them I gave my goodbye's to Bell.
"Stay safe, Bell!!" And he snapped out of his thinking
"Huh? Oh yeah, until next time Miquella" He said before also leaving.
And i joined with the others and asked.
"She was the one who had Bell's knife right? Why didn't you tell him Ryuu." I asked. to which she replied.
"He's too naive. He needs to learn to doubt."
"Yeah, Ryuu is right. Bell is way too innocent" Syr added
"Well, I can't argue with that." With out conversation ending we went back to the pub. And there goes another day
.

1700 words BABY. WHOO.
I kinda had fun making this one but i want him to join a familia as soon as possible. Right now Loki is first, then Hestia and then Freya. But i think all those famalia's are kinda overused. But I got a comment from 'Cris_Vilas' yesterday and he proposed to make a new god/goddess never seen in the anime or light novel. So as Miq his theme has everything to do with light I searched some gods of light and found the following: Baldur - Norse mythology, Amaterasu - Japanese mythology. Apollo for the greek mythology but he was already in the anime so that's a no no.
So i think I will lean in more to the new god thing. But alas your choice.
AND I SWEAR TO GOD, THE AMOUNT OF TIMES I HAD TO GO BACK AND CORRECT AN i AND TURN IT INTO I IS ASTRONOMICAL!!!! Like how can people write like this!!! We don't have such a stupid rule in my language. BUT I FUCKING BET I SKIPPED SOME!! So if you're someone who is annoyed by this mistake, I'm so sorry about this. But English isn't my main language. But pls leave a comment at the paragraph where I fucked up.
Anyway, thx for reading, hope you enjoyed. Leave a comment, Leave a review. Maybe some stones.
