Two Destined Souls Meet
“Long ago, we, the Gods, descended into the world of our children, the humans, in hopes of finding excitement and inspiration. And so, we decided that we would reside here, the lower world for the rest of etrinity, sealing away our divine powers and live a madoes life. Surrounded by all the discomforts of human’s inconvenience. The only thing we can offer in our earthly state is the Blessing, the power to fight to defeat monsters, the children who receive this gift will become a Familia or a direct relations to the Gods.
“Alright, now the guildhall should in this direction the man and woman said to go, then I go find this Eina hopefully she’s not out today.?” The young woman asked herself worry as she walks through the street of the Orario city.
The woman has long blonde hair and blue eyes. She wears an almost exclusively adorned in armor with a distinct breastplate that gives her protection and immunity to certain demonic attacks. On her right arm and neck is a series of long brown straps wrapped around her that dangle about freely. For added protection, she carries a full-arm, armored gauntlet on her left arm with a buckler mounted on it and a red sash hanging on the front. Breasts sizes: E-cup.
Today is the day she goes to the guildhall hopefully to register herself to becoming an adventurer and making a big name of herself and to prove that she can become a strong warrior to the ones who doubted herself like her own father and big sister. Even her younger sister doesn’t want her to go, and wants to get too close to her more. It’s not that they don’t think she can handle herself, they’re just worried about her that she might die like what happened to her mother years ago when she was a little kid.
“Mother, please give me strength to and watch over me as I take the first step of becoming a warrior.” The girl preyed. She looks up staring at the blue sky wondering how her late mother is doing in Heaven.
Soon, she made her way to the guildhall where Miss. Eina said she’ll be at.
“MISS. EINA?!” A boy shouted, and the shouting sounds like it’s getting closer to her.
“Oh, it seems like an Adventurer is going to see Miss. Eina.” The young woman said, then an idea pop into her head.
“Wait a minute, if he knows Miss. Eina maybe he can help me learn a thing or two about the Dungeon!” The woman said in joy, she also hear running footsteps probably the boy shouting earlier.
“Excuse me, can you-AAAAAGGGGGHHHHHH?!” The young woman was about to ask but suddenly screamed of seeing a boy running through the street, literally covered in blood down to the knees and yet he doesn’t seem to care.
“BLOOD MONSTER?!” The young woman screamed as she brings out her sword and started slashing at the poor boy who barely dodges them.
“AAH?! Wait, stop! Why are you attacking me!” The boy asked freaking out a bit.
“Get back you blood monster!” The young woman said swinging her sword to keep him a bay.
“Huh, Blood Monster?” The boy confused, then look at his hand and body. He turns his head to see his reflection on the window finally realizing what was she screaming about.
“Oh, I guess I got too excited to ask Miss. Eina that I completely forgot about the blood stains on my clothes.” The boy chuckled. Seriously, you got blood on your face and head too!
The young woman soon calms herself down upon realizing that the boy standing before her is not a monster, just a young adventurer cover in blood of probably some monster he fought in the Dungeon.
“(Wow, Adventurers must be pretty tough to not freak out of the sight of blood.)” The young woman thought. Really, this kid doesn’t even look tough.
“Sorry that I scared you, I was just going to see Miss. Eina about something I wanted to ask her.” The boy apologized bowing.
“It’s fine, I the one who should be sorry for mistaking you for a monster. And it’s my first day here in Orario.” The young woman said.
“Oh, you’re new in town?” The boy asked.
“Yep, my name is Leina Vance. I just arrived here early this morning in hopes of becoming a strong warrior and a great Adventurer!” Leina introduced herself and stated her reasoning.
“It’s an honor to meet you, Miss. Leina. I’m Bell Cranel.” Bell introduced himself.
“Please, just call me Leina.” Leina said.
“Bell? That almost sounds like a girl’s name.” Leina pointed out.
“Yeah, I kinda get that sometimes.” Bell chuckled.
“Anyway, you said that you knew Eina Tulle?” Leina asked.
“Yeah, she’s my advisor, why’d you ask?” Bell asked again.
“Well, because I was told that a woman named Eina would help get started as a Adventurer.” Leina explained.
“Wow, that’s really nice of her. Why don’t we go together to see her?” Bell suggested.
“That’s great, I was hoping you could fill me in on a few things like… what’s the Dungeon is like? I heard they have strong and frightening monsters.” Leina asked.
“Actually, I’m a little more of a rookie. I barely started for six months.” Bell revealed chuckling.
“Oh, then I guess we’re both in need of help with tough things.” Leina smiled, it was like a shining light appears behind her giving off a innocent and beautiful aura.
“(Beautiful!)” Bell thought blushing a bit, then quickly shook his head getting back on track.
“A-anyway, we should go see Miss. Eina.” Bell said, Leina noded.
As they make their way towards the guildhall, they see a woman coming out from the front door.
The woman has a slim body, pointy ears, shoulder length brown hair, and emerald colored eyes. She wears the uniform of the Guild that’s consist of a white long sleeved-shirt with a black vest over it and small yellow-gold buttons, black pants, matching gloves and shoes. Breasts sizes: D-cup.
This woman is Eina Tulle, a receptionist of the Guild and Bell’s advisor.
“Hey, Miss. Eina!” Bell called out.
“Oh, it’s Bell.” Eine recognized that voice anywhere, turn her head to see Bell, then scream seeing the boy cover in blood.
(In the Guildhall)
Later, Bell got himself clean from all the blood off and is now sitting with Leina on a couch while Eina sits on another couch across from them.
Leina can now see the full appearance of Bell’s physic, glad there was a shower here because the blood was creeping her out.
Bell has white hair and red eyes, seems to be about 14-years-old. He wears a hip length brown coat with a small black patch on the right side above his chest along with a long sleeved black shirt underneath. He also wears black pants, a beige belt with a silver buckle, and brown shin high boots. The only armor he does wear is a small metal plate on his chest area.
“(Oh my, he’s like a cute little rabbit!)” Leina mentally squealed, but she manage to keep herself under control.
“Well, that was foolish. Going down to the 5th floor by yourself wasn’t smart, just going into the Dungeon with a party at all is riskless enough. I keep telling you Adventurers do not go looking for adventures.” Eina scolded.
“I know, I’m sorry.” Bell sighed.
“I heard that Bell has only been doing this for six months.” Leina said.
“Yes, he should be lucky that survived an encounter with Minotaur.” Eina commented.
“Really, a Minotaur? I heard they’re one of the tough monsters in the less dangerous floors.” Leina said, recalling some stories she heard and Eina nod.
Eina leans closer and finch a finger at Bell’s nose getting his attention.
“Anyway, I’m glad you’re safe, but please be more careful, okay.” Eina said.
“And do us both a favor, don’t run around town covered in blood.” Leina said.
“Right!” Bell promised.
“Though, I am a bit surprise that you ran into Bell like that. I’m sorry for the trouble, Leina.” Eina apologized.
“No, it’s fine, I’m just it wasn’t a blood monster otherwise Bell wouldn’t be standing here today.” Leina chuckled nervously.
“Yeah, you were totally scared.” Bell laughed.
“Hey! It’s not funny!” Leina embarrassed.
“I’m sorry, it just that you looked cute when you scared.” Bell laughed some more.
“(Wait, did I just called her cute?)” Bell thought asked himself, realizing what he just called her.
“Anyway, Leina, I believe you came here to talk about entering you as a Adventurer?” Eina reminded the blonde girl.
“Oh yes, is there something I need to do or any papers to sign?” Leina asked.
“Nothing much, you just need to sign yourself and find a Familia.” Eina explained.
“I don’t think I’ve been inform of what that is.” Leina admitted.
“Well, a Familia is where Adventurers and other warriors are part of a big group lead by Gods and Goddess giving them Blessing, the gift to fight off monsters and grow stronger. It’s also a place where you can everyone is together like a big family.” Eina explained.
“Wow, like a big family.” Leina amazed, wondering if she’ll be able to find a new family probably a little better than her family.
“Anyway, I wouldn’t recommend going out right now, consider you just went through a long journey to get here.” Eina pointed out as Leina just yawned.
“I guess that’s true, I haven’t been able to sleep for two days due to my excitement.” Leina admitted.
“Well, I know a got hotel around that would be a good place to sleep until you find a Familia.” Eina said.
“Hey, maybe you join my Familia!” Bell suggested.
“Oh yeah, you’re the only member of Goddess Hestia’s Familia. I take if no new members showed up?” Eina guessed.
“How come you’re an only member?” Leina asked.
“Well, it just that… no one wanted to join Goddess Hestia probably because they think she’s a weaker God and I guess you could say I’m in the same boat too because no one wanted me in their Familia as they think I’m weak and such.” Bell answered sadly.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to bring up such a touchy subject.” Leina apologized, feeling bad for hurting Bell’s feelings.
“No, it’s alright, you didn’t know.” Bell shrugged off.
“You know, maybe you should at least meet the Goddess herself, that way the two of you can work together when exploring in the Dungeon and won’t have to worry about facing monsters alone!” Eina advised, thinking it’s a good idea.
“Wow, that’s a good idea Miss Eina!” Bell said, on board with it.
“Hmm, I guess it would be good to have someone to knows a little more about the experience of the Dungeon and my mom always says the Adventure is always great when you’re doing it with those you love.” Leina stated, remembering the words her mom told her.
“Alright Bell, I’ve made my decision: I would like to join your Familia!” Leina declared.
“Really?” Bell asked shock.
“Yes, I don’t know why, but I feel like we were destined to meet each other and join as one to become something greater!” Leina said.
Bell couldn’t believe what he was hearing, it felt like a dream but this was all too real to be a dream and even pitched himself making sure that it’s not a dream after all. For the first time in six months since he joined Goddess Hestia as the first member, someone else is willing to join making the family a little bigger which was very good for Bell and know that Goddess Hestia will feel joy of having a new member too.
In blinded excitement Bell jumps at Leina in an embrace forcing her down to the ground on her back as she yelp in surprise.
“Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Goddess Hestia will be so happy, I’m glad that we’re gaining a new family member!” Bell excited happily while rubbing his face back and forth between her cleavage.
“Ah, I’m glad that you’re happy… AAHH!” Leina moaned as her cheeks blushes. Eina was also blushing at the scene, then force cough to get the white-haired boy’s attention.
“Bell, while it is great news for you I believe you should restrain yourself from Leina.” Eina pointed out.
Bell stopped his excitement when he realizes the position the two are in making it look like that people will mistake them as lovers doing “naughty” things out in public, he face turns a bright color shade of red upon the realization of embarrassment.
“I’m so sorry, I got caught in the moment!” Bell apologized, quickly getting off of Leina and bowing his head rapidly.
“No, no, it’s fine, I didn’t mind the… excitement.” Leina hesitated, suddenly feeling her heart beating a bit faster than normal.
“Well, huh, why don’t we get going so you can meet Goddess Hestia.” Bell said offering his hand to the new female warrior.
There Leina felt her heart beating again only a little faster this time and felt like the whole scenario was changing into a beautiful field where everything is peaceful with nothing beyond the horizon and Bell Cranel himself is standing right in front of her. It was just as she said, it was destiny that lead her to Bell and the start of her new life here in Orarino has just started.
“Yeah, let’s go!” Leina smiled of excitement, grabbing hold of Bell’s hand and getting up showing their similarity in height as they stare at each other in the eyes.
“(Finally, a new family member! Goddess Hestia is gonna be so happy!)” Bell mentally excited.
