Is it wrong to try to meet someone in a dungeon?

Page 667

Bell: "∑( ;ﾟ;ж;ﾟ;)･:∴･:∴･:∴･:∴You've misunderstood. It's really nothing. I just called you by the wrong name for a moment."

Ais: "Sister Ais?" (whispering)

Belle: "(;´▽｀A``/ Ah... Miss Ai...?"

At this moment, Ais, as if possessed by Loki, began plotting mischievous schemes.

Bell: "Um..."

Ais: "Speaking of which..."

Bell: "Wha...what's up?"

Ais: "Call me 'older sister' one more time."

Bell: "∑( ☉д⊙)/Huh!!?"

Ais: "Call me 'older sister'."

Bell: "What...what kind of joke is this?!"

Ais: "Just say it one more time."

Bell: "(＞д＜)/I'm sorry, I can't do that!! People could die!!"

Ais: "Please."

As she spoke, Ais moved closer to Belle. She's definitely not the number one contender in the Matsuoka Forced Marriage Association!

Bell: "(＞д＜)/Wait, we're...we're too close!!"

Ais: "Then... hurry up!"

Bell: "(＞д＜)/Please, have mercy on me!!"

Ais: "(`ε´ )/ Bell...you're so mean!"

Although she made Miss Ais angry, her sulking expression was rather childish, which felt kind of strange.

Bell: "By the way, Miss Ais, how exactly did I fall asleep? I have absolutely no recollection of it."

Ais: "(￣- ￣ )/ Hmm~~ I was startled too. You suddenly collapsed as soon as we started our break. I'm so sorry, I guess it's because my training was too strict."

Bell: "No...no, that's not true. Rather, it's just that my skills aren't good enough. I've already drunk the healing potion."

Ais: "Speaking of which, your healing potion is quite unusual."

Bell: "Really?"

Ais: "Hmm, which clan made it?"

"These potions were made by the Mih Familia; they often take care of me. By the way, please accept them if you don't mind."

"Is it really okay to give this to Ais?"

Bell: "It's alright. You've been willing to train me, and I have no way to repay you. Besides, if Miss Ais likes it, I think Lord Mich and the others will be very happy too."

Ais: "Okay, I understand. I'll accept it then."

At that moment, the noon bell rang.

Bell: "∑( ╹ ω ╹ )/ Ah! The noon bells are ringing!"

Ais: "∑( ╹ ω ╹ )/ Ah! Sorry, I have a prior agreement with Loki, so that's all for today."

Belle: "It's alright! Thank you so much, Miss Ais!"

Ais: "Okay! Goodbye!"

Bell: "Okay!"

The perspective shifts to the headquarters of Hestia's Familia.

Hestia: "(〃´o｀)=3 / Ugh~ Why isn't Bell back yet?"

Lily: "Yeah! It's rare to have a day off today, no need to explore the maze. I was even thinking of going shopping with Lord Bell."

Hestia: "Why...do...have...to...go on a date with Supporter-kun? We were supposed to be all lovey-dovey at headquarters today, weren't we?"

Lily: "Even if you are a supreme god, it's too tyrannical to forcibly restrict his actions regardless of his subordinates' wishes!"

Hestia: "What did you say?!"

"Is Lily not convinced?"

After a few minutes of standoff, Lily and Hestia both sighed.

Hestia: "Let's put this pointless argument to an end. I'm so sorry, Supporter."

Lily: "No, I should be the one apologizing. But it's still unbelievable that I was able to train with that [Sword Princess]."

Hestia: "I should be the one saying that! Honestly, that Warren-san, I thought she was an honest person, but she actually secretly seduced Bell-kun. (＃｀皿´)/ Gritting her teeth!"

Lily: "Speaking of which, this also includes issues between the kin, right? I'm really surprised you agreed."

Hestia: "(〃´o｀)=3 / Sigh~ What can I do? After all, Bell-kun begged me so desperately, and besides, that child did it for the sake of the clan's growth."

Lily: "In the end, I still have to stay home."

As they spoke, Lily and Hestia both sighed again.

Hestia: "Speaking of which, Supporter, let's change the subject, okay?"

Lily: "What's wrong? Why are you taking this so seriously?"

Hestia: "Actually, I want to try the healing potion."

Lily: "∑( ￣д￣ )/Huh!?"

Hestia: "Although I know very well that it's not something we gods should drink, I've heard that healing potions are quite sweet, so I've wanted to try them for a long time."

Lily: "Hey, healing potions are adventurers' items, completely different from regular medicine. And they're expensive too. Even the cheapest ones cost 500 falies, some 3000, and high-level healing potions can cost tens of thousands. Do you think we'd have to sell countless potato balls to make that much?"

Hestia: "Stop nagging! Supporter-kun is such a miser."

(まくしたてるまくしたてる) means gesticulating; chattering; talking incessantly.)

Lily: "ヽ(#`Д´)ﾉ What did you just say!?"

Hestia: "N-nothing, it's alright. I'll pay for it myself, okay?"

Lily: "(〃´o｀)=3 / Sigh~ Seriously, a god who descended from heaven will do anything without hesitation if he's interested in it. I give up, but you can only drink one bottle."

Hestia: "Okay...okay, by the way, is it okay to drink the healing potion Bell left around here?"

Lily: "It's okay, and it doesn't look like some kind of high-grade healing potion. ('_'?)/ Strange, but the color seems a little different from usual."

Hestia: "Let me see what it tastes like."

Hestia then started drinking, but she soon fainted.

Lily: "∑( ﾟДﾟ)/ Uh! Lady Hestia, what's wrong with you?"

Mich arrived at this moment.

Michal asked, "Bell, are you there?"

Lily: "∑( ﾟДﾟ)/ Oh! Lord Mich!"

Mich asked, "Where's Bell? No, wait, is the healing potion I gave to Bell here?"

Lily: "(￣- ￣ )/ Uh... well, I guess Lady Hestia just finished a bottle. Oh, right, something terrible has happened! Lady Hestia has suddenly fainted."

Mich thought, "So I was too slow after all."

☆☆☆Now it's Hestia's turn to have a dream☆☆☆

Hestia: "('_'?)/ Strange, where am I? I remember being at headquarters with the Supporter."

Bell: "My Lord God!"

Hestia: "∑( ﾟДﾟ)/ Wow! Bell-kun, when did you get back?"

Bell: "What nonsense are you talking about? I've been with you, God, the whole time!"

Hestia: "(￣- ￣ )/ Uh~ really? No, that doesn't seem right..."

Bell: "I'm not lying to you. My dear God, you and I are soulmates, connected by a burning soul. I'll always be by your side, body and soul."

[I...I always feel like there's something strange about Bell-kun; he radiates an eternal glow. Ah, that smile is just too dazzling.]

(Blank: This is the legendary [blinding my titanium dog eyes]...)

Bell: "We will always be together, and I will never let go."

As he spoke, Bell embraced Hestia, who seemed somewhat flustered by this sudden action.

Hestia: "∑( ﾟДﾟ)/ Wow! Bell... Bell-kun! You suddenly hugged me like that, what are you thinking? Let... let go of me!"

Bell: "You...don't like it?"

Hestia seemed somewhat tempted by Bell's words.

【∑( ﾟДﾟ)/Wow! There's definitely something wrong! Although this is what I've always dreamed of, Bell-kun would never do such a thing. ∑( ﾟДﾟ)/Oh, could it be...?】

Hestia: "I said, Bell... Bell-kun!"

Bell: "Is there something you need?"

Hestia thought, "This...could I be dreaming?"

Belle: "No, I'm not dreaming. ( ･ ω < )/Sparkling♪"

Hestia: "Hmm! I'm not dreaming!"

[Since Bell-kun said so, then it must be reality. Yes, this is undoubtedly reality!]

Hestia: "Bell! So, that means you'd do this, and that you like me more than Warren so-and-so?"

Bell: "That's right, I love you the most, Goddess. I prefer Lady Hestia to Miss Ais, who's as hard as sand."

Hestia: "(≧∀≦)/ Hahahaha♪ Did you see that, Mr. Warren? Bell and I are so in love! My long-cherished wish has finally come true!"

Bell: "That's right, Your Majesty, you and I are deeply in love."

Hestia: "Are they truly in love?"

Bell: "We love each other so much!"
