The blond elf who observed the Loki Familia returns to his Familia's headquarters. As he arrives, he encounters a dark elf who was standing by.

- How did your expedition go? - asks the dark elf.

- Do not exaggerate, I only went to investigate the situation by order of Freya-sama -

The two elves went to the tower of Babel, where a goddess of beauty resides, but this goddess leads the most powerful family of Orario.

Arriving at the tower, they meet Ottar, who accompanies them to give the report.

- We have arrived, Freya-sama - speaks the blond elf.

- What news, my dear Hedin and Hogni? -

Hedin Selland

Hogni Ragnar

- It is something... beyond imagination - replies Hedin.

- Explain -

- It turns out that this boy is a Siberian, he is engaged to <Nine Hell> and possesses elven customs -

- Elven customs? Siberian? -

The goddess thinks about everything she has heard and then remembers about the fact that, during one of her adventures, she learned about the event that marked the end of the kingdom of Siberia ending in its near extinction.

- Do you know something? The Siberians had been wiped out 14 years ago. I heard about a conversation somewhere else -

- So how come he is alive? - asks Ottar.

- On closer inspection, it turns out that he is a child. He must have been left in an elven forest... when he was a baby... -

- What are you planning, Freya-sama? -

- There is an event coming up, I can take advantage of what he might be capable of. I am getting interested, but I better make sure before I take action -

- Would that not involve trouble with the Loki Familia? - Hedin asks.

- Who knows... Well, you are dismissed -

The three members of the Freya Family head towards the Family headquarters while Freya lays her head on one of her hands thinking about meeting the Siberian.

At Twilight Manor

Everyone is on their way back and then they are resting up for the next day.

In the room shared by Bell and Riveria, both are ready to sleep on their own.

Bell always sleeps in one position every night. Tonight is the same, he has not moved for a second, but he hears his partner move at the sound coming from the bed.

The Siberian decides to ignore it, thinking that she just wants to get comfortable for her energy restoration.

What happens next is that Riveria, unconscious from her sleep, slowly moves to Bell's side until a couple of centimetres mark the distance between the two.

Bell is already feeling her warmth much closer, but he decides neither to speak nor to turn around, a mistake for him, as a few seconds later Riveria hugged him like a pillow in a soft way.

It was a surprise to the Siberian that the hug is very soft compared to when he slept with Eira who would squeeze him tightly until she realised minutes later and then let go and stay a little away.

Bell hears some giggles from his fiancée who, he thinks, is enjoying a good night's sleep. For tonight she will be that way. Despite feeling a little uncomfortable about the space, he finds the embrace very pleasant and ends up simulating his own sleep as well.

The next morning, Riveria opens her eyes to see the Siberian's head, but what surprises her most is that the distance is almost zero and that she had him hugging her.

Very embarrassed, she decides to withdraw her arms quickly without waking Bell, but she felt a hand on one of her arms turning out to be Eira, who told her not to do it so she will not wake him up and also told her to enjoy it and then transform into a sword.

Riveria could not contradict anything because of the transformation. Now, unable to move, she pretends to fall asleep to avoid her embarrassment.

A few minutes later, Bell awoke to still feel Riveria's arms from the night before, so she saw him coming. First, he removed her left arm from his chest to get out of bed. After that, he proceeds to pull his fiancée's arms together and then walk out of the room with his sword.

- Not yet. I must first have her consent if I would perform such an act.

With that said, the Siberian disappears from the room and Riveria wakes up completely to cover her face in shame.

The day was an ordinary one, so he was busy killing monsters with the group he was assigned to. This time she decides to use only her sword to kill the creatures in the dungeon.

The day was a success for the group who, after going to a specific floor, return to the surface to report the events.

When it is time to rest, Bell takes to playing his instrument in the room as a method of relaxing with or without Riveria.

- Are you going to make any progress with her? - Eira asks her companion.

- Not at the moment. I require funds to have a date -

- But are there no places where that is not required? -

Bell starts to think a bit about possible places where you can have a date without having to buy or pay, but then realises that he has only explored a few spots thanks to Alicia's guidance.

- How about tomorrow we check out some places? -

- Sounds good, Bell. Anything to go on a date with your fiancée -

Eira's last words caused Bell to blush and then he regained his consciousness to continue playing.

As he continues to play his instrument, Riveria arrives, notifying that Loki will go to a banquet exclusively for gods, and then continue listening to the melody that Bell is playing and after a few hours, go to sleep.

××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××

At the Gods' Banquet

The Banquet is held by the god Ganesha, considered to be the god of the masses.

Loki arrives at the site to make his way to a specific spot. It turns out to be the spot where a silver-haired goddess and a black-haired goddess are having a conversation.

- Well, well. Who do we have here? - Loki says once he is close to the other two goddesses.

- Grrr... What do you want, Loki? - demands the black-haired goddess.

- Oh? I had not seen you, shorty - replies Loki in a mocking tone.

As the black-haired girl grumbles, the silver-haired girl waves at Loki.

- Wow, Loki. I have not seen you in a dress very often -

- I heard that some poor thing decided to come to the party, so I decided to come in my best dress -

- Hmp! According to you everyone will make fun of me for being poor, but in reality they will make fun of you because, even though you look rich, you lack of breasts -

The black-haired goddess' declaration turned Loki's joy into depression, but the redhead would not give up and lashed out at the redhead, squeezing her cheeks.

At this scene, the gods became excited and began to bet on the winner of the supposed fight.

In the end, Loki let go of his opponent because she was short in stature. At that moment, another goddess appears and approaches the group, this goddess turns out to be Hephaestus.

- Hephaestus! - reacts the black-haired goddess with joy and goes straight to hug her.

- Do not even think about it, Hestia - Hephaestus denies the hug.

Hestia
(As it is at the banquet, she is wearing a dress)

At her friend's words, Hestia is saddened by her refusal. Meanwhile, Hephaestus approaches Loki who is similarly upset about the recent quarrel.

- Hey, Loki, is it true that you recruited one more? -

- Did you hear? - his sadness was cast into oblivion.

- Yes. Rather, that boy came looking for Tsubaki because of his bayonets -

- Grrr... Another member? Why didn't he go with me? - Hestia claims to Loki.

- Obviously for two reasons. One because no one would go to join a poor goddess and two because it was at the request of a couple of kings.

- A couple of kings? - asks Freya.

- Of course they were. In order to make themselves strong, they decided to send him to me.

The three had no word because he was recommended and not because she herself recruited him or the new one went to ask for him.

- And where did they come from? - Hephaestus asks.

- They are the same kings of Alf -

All three were more than surprised by the answer, but Hephaestus keeps asking.

- But if that boy is a Siberian, how is it possible that he is a warrior of Alf's Forest? -

- To be honest, I had no idea either, but it was the queen herself who explained absolutely everything to me.

Life itself is full of surprises, and for the three goddesses who listened to Loki, even though their life cycle has no end, it was a very big surprise.

But, because of this, Hephaestus understands about the nation in which Bell was raised. However, Freya, in her mind, is starting to feel like possessing him even though she has not yet confirmed her decision.

- Well, I have to go. I have something to do -

- What's your hurry, Freya? - Hephaestus asks with slight suspicion.

- It's nothing, I just remembered something I have to do with my family.

After the response, Freya leaves the place leaving the other three goddesses.

- I do not know what she is up to, but it may be about the Siberian - says the red-haired goddess characteristically wearing an eyepatch.

- I am afraid it looks that way... -

- I do not understand... -

- Look, Hestia - Hephaestus begins to explain - Freya is very selective when it comes to recruiting people. If there is someone who captures her interest, she will do anything to get him or her. This can even lead to war... -

Although a concern takes its first steps, the feast is still on for the amusement of the gods.

The following day

In the streets of Orario

Bell is walking through the streets of Orario, after finishing his day in the dungeon, looking for a suitable place for a date.

- [What kind of place are you planning to go on a date?] -

- Suddenly it may be a restaurant or a place of entertainment -

- [Mmm... I doubt that you will get the second one] -

- Well, I have faith that I can get it, at least that it is suitable for all audiences -

Every restaurant that showed elegance was pointed out by the Siberian, and he even pointed out some squares and parks. However, the one thing he did not find was places of entertainment such as theatres and the like.

After hours of searching, Bell decides to sit down on a bench to rest.

- For now, what's your recommended place?

- Looking at it now... -

Suddenly, Bell felt a piercing gaze that alarmed him and he immediately stood up clutching the hilt of his sword and looking around. Eira is very surprised by her companion's action. She was about to speak, but a female voice is heard whose sound is directed towards the Siberian.

- Hey! Mister adventurer! -

Bell looks in the direction where the voice came from and it belongs to a girl with silver eyes and hair, to his surprise, she is dressed as a waitress. However, the girl's attire reminded him of the waitresses who served the restaurant the members went to celebrate.

- You work at the Hostess, do you not? -

- Of course, but you were served by one of my colleagues -

- I see. My name is Bell Cranel; what name is yours? -

- Syr Flover. How do you do, Mr. Cranel -

Syr Flover

- Likewise, Flover. Although I ask you not to tell me sir if I am younger than you - Bell replies calmly, but a little uncomfortably as he finishes.

- Wait... How old are you? -

- Fourteen. I suppose you are about two or three years older than me -

It was a surprise for the girl to learn that she is older than the Siberian, but she immediately changes the subject.

- Well. You look a little worried, what is the matter? -

- Well... The thing is that I am looking for a good place to go on a date -

- And you cannot make up your mind, am I wrong? -

- No. Not at all -

- I heard that the Monsterphilia event is about to start in a few days -

- Monsterphilia? -

- Yeah. It is like a fair. It will be fun -

- Monsterphilia... I'll write it down. Thanks for the tip -

- But tell me, with whom are you going on a date? -

- With my fiancée. I want to surprise her -

At this, Syr is surprised that Bell has a fiancée and suspects that she belongs to the Loki Family.

- Finally I find you, Syr. Mama Mia sent me to find you -

- Oh? Sorry, Ryuu. I was just talking to the gentleman -

- Gentleman? - Syr's companion looks at Bell who is calmly looking at her notes.

- He did nothing to you? - the girl asks.

- No, nothing. Young Bell, allow me to introduce you to my companion, Ryuu Lion -

Bell looks at Syr's companion who turns out to be an elf with blonde hair with a greenish hue and her eyes characterized as that of an aquamarine.

Ryuu Lion

Having finished introducing Ryuu, Bell stands up and bows.

- I hope it is a pleasure to meet you. My name is Bell Cranel -

- For now, I am pleased to meet you, sir... pardon me, young Cranel - the elf replies, bowing as well.

- I think it is time for me to go. See you later and thank you for your help, Miss Syr -

Bell is on his way back to Twilight Manor leaving the two waitresses alone.

- What help are you talking about? - Ryuu asks.

- About a date with his fiancée. He was worried about the place -

The elf gave a sigh and took Syr back to work only for the silver-haired girl to be scolded by her boss for her tardiness. In Ryuu's case, she just gives a sigh and continues to work.

××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××××

Twilight Manor

Having finished his notes, Bell stands in the room analysing his notes and observing the places he has written down; however, he pays more attention to the place that the waitress had recommended.

- You are thinking of that fair, are you not? - asks Eira who is still in sword form.

- Yes... -

- [I feel that you have the desire to go to that event like any other kid...] - Eira returns to her anthropomorphic form - I expected that from you... -

A chuckle from the spirit caused the Siberian to lower his head in embarrassment and become discouraged, to which Eira tries to cheer him up and a few minutes later Bell continues to check.

While Bell continues with his notes, someone approaches the Siberian, but before that, Eira transformed into a sword so that she will not be discovered in her previous form for now.

- I would like to know what are you doing, Bell -

- Oh? - Bell turns his head to the right - Captain! -

- How is it going? -

- So-so, to be honest -

- Do not worry, what are you doing? -

Bell looks around to see if anyone else is there. Thankfully that is not the case, Bell starts telling about a place to go on a date with his fiancée, which the hobbit is happy to hear. The problem is the location of the date. He has pointed out restaurants, squares, parks, among others, and the last thing he has heard is about the Monsterphilia that will be held in a few days.

- And that is all I have written down -

Finn thought for a moment and then continued asking.

- Do you know where you plan to take her? -

- I was planning to take her to one of those restaurants, but it would just be a case of order, wait and eat. I do not think squares or parks are for her, and I doubt she would accept Monsterphilia and I am curious about those kind of events -

- Hmm... It is fine that you want her to have the most comfort, but it should also be a place you like. The point is for both of you to have fun and not just one of you -

- Are you really saying that, Captain? -

- I do -

A big smile forms on the Siberian's face at the thought that he might agree to go to the event he is interested in.

- Thank you very much, Captain! I am sure you know these things from your experience. Wish me luck -

Bell grabs his sword and heads for his room leaving Finn alone with a thought.

- (Good luck, champion) -

Bell arrives in the room he shares with Riveria and sees his fiancée reading a book.

- Riveria -

- Bell. So how have you been out there? I hear you went exploring the city, though I would like you to ask me to guide you -

- No worries, I just wanted to do it on my own -

- In this case I do not mind, but I want to ask you something. Have you set foot in the Entertainment District? -

- Entertainment District? Will there be various theatres or places for entertainment? -

At her fiancé's question, Riveria looks at him in surprise and then shakes her head.

- There is not exactly that -

- Then, what are they doing there? -

- What they are doing there is not illegal, but it is totally impure, so I strongly request that you do not go there for any reason.

Bell sees how serious Riveria is about the last thing she said, so Bell nods without a problem.

- Riveria, I want to ask you something, I do not know if you would accept me... -

- Hmm? What is it you want to ask me? - Riveria asks a little curious.

- I ask you to take me on a date to the Monsterphilia event -
