Flashback

- No one must know about this. Absolutely no one, not even Riveria -

End of Flashback

- Why does he not want anyone to know about it? - she asks herself as she prepares for today's journey to the dungeon.

Walking down to the dining room, Lefiya observes Bell alone at breakfast. Without further ado, the elf approaches Bell to try to talk to him, but she sees Riveria come over to sit next to the Siberian and eat breakfast as well. The elf notices Lefiya's presence and asks her to approach.

- Good morning, Riveria-sama, Bell-sama -

- Good morning, Lefiya - Riveria replies.

- Good morning, Lefiya-san - the Siberian does the same.

- Why are you having breakfast so early? -

- To pick up bayonets - answers Bell.

- I will accompany you - answers Riveria - After that, you will go to the dungeon -

- I understand... -

Lefiya serves herself her portion and sits down next to Riveria while the rest come during the course of time, the last person being Ais.

Bell and Riveria finish breakfast and are on their way to the northwest tent to pick up the bayonets that Bell had commissioned to replicate. Of the two going to the shop, Bell is equipped with all his weapons.

Once arriving at the tent, Riveria observes Tsubaki carrying the bayonets and notices the presence of the two Loki Family members.

- Oh! You are just in time - speaks the blacksmith upon seeing the white-haired boy.

- Good morning, Tsubaki-san. I see the bayonets are already -

- Of course, at least I got the trick pretty fast -

- Bell - Riveria speaks - How much did she charge you?

- 72 000 valis -

- Right, but... - the blacksmith reaches over and grabs one of Bell's shoulders - For this time I charged you only from one. Next time, the amount will be the normal price. Do you understand? -

- I do not see the problem. I just hope I get a good salary -

Bell thanks Tsubaki and returns with Riveria to Twilight Manor where Finn and a small group of adventurers are.

- Bell, you are just in time - Finn speaks once he sees him.

- Is something wrong, Captain? -

- Nothing. Just that I am assigning you to this group to go to the dungeon.

Bell observes the group that consists of Raul, Aki, Lefiya, Alicia, Narvi, Line and a chienthrope, of which he only had interaction with the two elves and Raul was the referee of the duel against Finn.

- I see... The rest will not go? -

- Yes, just sometimes we go at different times. When we are on expedition, we all go together. For now, go with them -

Bell bows and approaches the group that Finn had assigned to him.

- Bell-sama - Alicia talks to the white-haired boy - Are those the bayonets you ordered? -

- Of course they are -

- Well, guys - Raul pronounces to the group - You know the usual routine. By the way, Bell... -

- Just Bell is fine, Raul-san -

- Okay, Bell. What role are you most used to? -

- To be honest, I have always been a loner, setting up ambushes for Empire groups. Therefore, I cannot say precisely what role I take.
