Walking The Wrong Path

Working Hard

"ah these guys and especially Asterius the bull monster, travel deeper into the dungeon since they have access," Bell explained," they kinda sit in the middle so both humans and monsters attack them, but believe me they are harmless. They are all harmless, well unless you attack them," Bell said.

"Well guys, we're gonna have a party tonight, get everything ready," Lyd announced as everyone roared alive.

"Bell we got a lot to catch up on," Lyd said putting his arm around Bell's shoulder.

"ah right, I got a small present for Ray and Wiene," Bell said, he turned to the others, "sorry guys, Fels kind of told me last minute that you guys would be here, so I couldn't bring much, but I did remember how Wiene wanted to try some chocolate, so I brought some for you two."

"Really, thanks Bell," Wiene shouted hugging Bell's leg. Meanwhile, Finn and the other two stood watching, this was too much to process. They were silent until Riveria noticed a person Bell referred.

"WAIT DID YOU SAY FELS? AS IN THE MESSENGER OF OURANOS SAMA," Riveria screamed out.

"shouting is going to make it have more impact Riv," Bell said poking his ears, "anyways guys, I won't tell you to warm up immideatly, but do give them a chance. They really are nice. As for Fels, yes that Fels, do you remember during my trials, I called out one of the favours Ouranos owed me, helping with the Xenos was one of them." Bell paused as he sat down," I helped in a rescue mission, so he kind of had to do that for me," Bell sighed.

The party started to go into full swing. Finn, Riveria and Gareth were surrounded by Xenos, all curious to get to know them. Although, it took a while, Finn and the others finally relaxed near them. Riveria was having fun talking to Ray and Wiene who seemed to be quite important to Bell. Wiene sitting on Bell's lap.

"hey Bell, what do you consider Wiene?" Riveria asked.

"oh my, is our elf chan jealous of a wittle child?" Gareth teased.

"I will end you," Riveria said pointing her staff at Gareth who only backed up a bit.

"Hmm... I know the answer to that, Welf asked me that long time ago, it's quite simple actually, Wiene is more like my daughter," Bell said making Riveria choke on her drink.

"d-daughter?" She stuttered out.

"yep, I found her in the dungeon on the verge of death, thankfully I managed to help her, she's precious," Bell said.

"Fu fu fu, whenever Bell comes to meet us, he always spoils Wiene a lot," Ray giggled out.

"Well unlike normal people, I can't let her see the sunlight yet, so I try my best to play with her whenever I can," Bell smiled gently. Riveria now thoroughly surprised at this gentleness. She watched him pat her head lightly. 'I wish her pat my head like that' She thought before she realised what she was thinking and she shook her head.

"yo Belluchi, come and drink with us," Lyd offered as Bell slowly got up and went up and started drinking with them and danced like idiots. Riveria watched in shock as she never saw Bell truly cut loose with anything. He started getting arm in arms and dumbly started dancing with mugs of alcohol. Riveria smiled with a sigh at how idiotic he was acting. She just stared until someone spoke up to her.

"so... you're his lover huh?" a voice called out. Riveria turned to see the xenos called Ray.

"I'm sorry?" Riveria asked surprised.

"you must be his lover, I mean both of you look at each other so lovingly," Ray reiterated as Riveria started blushing, Ray giggled, "don't worry, I won't tell anyone, although I'm pretty sure most realised... we're happy, after we heard of his family's death, we all felt extremely guilty for not being able to be there for him during his time of need, so it really does make us happy that he found someone like you." Ray finished. Riveria was stunned, she was still very skeptical of the Xenos, but here was someone sounding so genuinely happy for Bell.
