****************************************************************
After a few seconds shrouded in the pale light that blocked my view, the glow faded, and I arrived at a place I'd never been before but quite nostalgic for me.
I was in the centre of Orario, or the city that was supposed to be Orario.
There was an all-white medieval-looking structure where the tower should have been. Four pillars held a ceiling with a painting similar to the tower. It was the sky.
And just below that roof was the portal, where I and the others were.
I looked ahead and saw an extensive line of people waiting to use the portal. Ais and the others started walking, so I followed. I looked towards the portal and saw people disappearing as I walked away. Visit no(v)eLb(i)n.com for the best novel reading experience
A few seconds passed after the people disappeared, and some people appeared.
"They control the portal, so people don't use it simultaneously," I said aloud. Tiona then smiled and approached me.
"You're kind of weird." She pulled away and ran to her sister's side. I then stopped walking and watched them walk away. However, I decided to run after them again because I could get lost.
But after I went after them again, Bete got in my way.
"What you want? We've already helped you, haven't we?" He huffed and then turned to walk away. But without feeling afraid, I approached him again and put my hand on his shoulder.
"!" Then I felt a need to activate my ability. It was like a warning flashing in my mind.
So, I activated it.
"Who do you think you are?" Bete then grabbed my arm and tried to throw me forward. However, I didn't move.
After releasing me, he jumped away and got into a battle stance.
"Okay, here it is. Bye Bye." Tiona then waved and walked away. I wanted to stay with her longer, but she quickly disappeared around a nearby corner.
I looked at the building for a while and went inside.
There were several counters for adventurers to talk to their advisors, but I didn't have one yet. There was also an exchange area. I approached the exchange area and placed the stones I had taken there.
On the other side, a beautiful woman with long red hair looked at me with her golden eyes. She wore a set of black pants and a black vest, a white long-sleeved shirt underneath the vest, and a grey tie - the guild's uniform.
But what caught my attention the most was her fluffy ears with red fur on her head. If I'm not mistaken, her name is Rose Fannett?
"Have I seen you here before?" she asked me calmly.
"It's my first time here."
"I see... Are you part of any familia?"
"No."
"I understand. You should look for a familia before going back to this place." Wait, what? Had the author of Danmachi wrote something like that? I do not remember this.
"Are you sure?" It's probably my brain playing tricks on me.
"Yea. Here." Rose put my crystals in a cloth bag before handing them back to me. She continued with her usual expression, and I continued to stand there for a few before turning and walking away.
After leaving, I sighed, a little disappointed.
But just when I thought it was all over, I found something interesting walking in front of the guild.
Short stature, revealing clothing, large breasts, blue eyes, and hair tied on both sides. It was Hestia. She held a piece of paper that said, "I am looking for members for my familia."
How depressing... But if Bell entered the tower at that moment, he's already part of her familia. If I remember correctly, she is always looking for new members.
She then walked toward me. Her breasts bounced up and down, catching my attention. Her cleavage was so revealing that I had to control myself so my dick wouldn't get hard in the middle of the street.
"Excuse me, are you looking for a familia?" She smiled broadly. My heart almost stopped in that instant.
She is much prettier in person.
