Chapter 196: [Vol.2] Quest 167- Good Morning, Good Afternoon, and Goodnight

2 weeks later.

Morning.

"Hey!! How's breakfast!" said Cirrus.

"Cirrus!! Ai!! Come in! We’re just having breakfast!" said Circe. "I take it Nox is still asleep?"

"Of course, we tried to wake her, but you know here." said Ai.

"Sadly, I do... Anyway, come sit and eat! "

"Are you going into the dungeon?" asked Lili. "I could be your supporter!"

"Not today. I’m taking a break from it since for the last few days I’ve been going in and out of it ragged."

"Lili, do you ever aspire to be an adventurer?" asked Ai. "I heard Cirrus taught you some stuff."

"Ah well…I’m not sure…My family isn’t the most friendly. "

"I told you if you want me to deal with them, then I’ll-"

"No! no! It’s my responsibility! I will handle it on my own!"

"Hm…you have grown up, Lili. I’m sure you’ll grow up fine," Cirrus said, patting her head. "But don’t be too afraid to ask for help."

"I know, but I can do it!!" she said with confidence.

"…Alright, I believe you."

"So Cirrus." Said Lenoa. "Did you finish all your orders?"

"I did, just today in fact."

"Ah I see, how very good! A good, hardworking nephew!" she said joyously.

‘Odd?’ Thought Lili.

 

After breakfast.

"Yo! Asfi!" said Cirrus.

"Hey Asfi!" said Ai.

"Good morning. What could I do for you?"

"Well, I was hoping if you could deliver some stuff for us?"

"Um…sure? What kind of stuff? "

"Just some commission I got and I need someone to do the delivery. I was hoping if you come by tomorrow?"

"Sure thing! I’ll tell Lord Hermes of the commission!" She said, giving a slight bow.

"Thanks, and here for the job." Cirrus hands her a bag of Valis.

"Oh thank you! But this is a little-"

"See ya tomorrow, Asfi!" said Cirrus, leaving.

"You look really nice today, Asfi!" shouted Ai.

"…Okay?" she said, watching as Cirrus and Ai left. "Hmmm... Oh well."

Walking through the city now at peace, Cirrus felt a bit happy about this achievement.

"Your smile is so cute! It’s nice to see you smile so often now."

"Am I really? Huh? I never notice."

"Fufu it seems I rubbed off on you!" She said, with a smug face.

"I…I think I rubbed off more on you, Ai."

"What!? That’s not fucking true!"

"Uh-huh, well, we should get going to help Eupheme out."

"They said they're going to be at the Entertainment District?"

"Ah…fuck really?"

"Don’t worry! I’ll fend them off!" She said with a smirk.

"I’m sure you will."

Afternoon on one of the buildings in the Entertainment District.

"It’s strange, isn't it, Cirrus?" said Eupheme.

"What is?"

"At this time of day, this part of the city is so dead quiet and tame that one would think it’s full of run-down businesses, but right when the sun goes down over the horizon, this place becomes livelier than the whole of Orario."

"I would hope so. This part of the city basically pays for the infrastructure of the whole city."

"Yeah…and also your own Amazoness parade."

They look over the corner to see several Amazoness.

"Kyaaa!!!! Cirrus!!!"

"I want your babies!!!!"

"You don’t even have to raise them!!"

"I’ll let you have sex with me and my sister!"

They leaned back and got right back to work.

"Yeah, Amazoness genetics are a scary thing."

"Hm, they fall for anyone strong who defeats them."

"If only I was stronger." said one of the craftsmen.

"Same, I’m still a level 1…"

"Plus, we're always so busy!"

"Hm! hm!" They nod their heads in agreement.

"You know, you can just buy one of them to spend the night, right?" said Cirrus.

"We don’t want cheap experiences, Kirin!" said one of them.

"Hm! hm!"

"We want you-"

"Refreshments!" said Ai, coming up.

"Ai-chan!!" they all said, coming to get her drinks.

"Oh? You don’t want my drinks? " said Aisha.

"Aisha!" the craftsman said, flocking to her.

"Fufu sees Ai. I told you to show a bit more skin to really get the men’s attention."

"And I told you I already have Cirrus! Besides, you can’t get me to cheat on him!" She said, giving Cirrus a cool drink.

"I never said anything about that. I simply suggest you share him with me. I’m even fine if you join."

Ai's face blushed slightly.

"N-no! I know you’ll do something funny! I’ve known you for 5 years! "

"And for 5 years I-" Aisha began to move her finger along Ai’s body. Her blush got even redder. "Taught you some of my techniques like-" Aisha then leans into Cirrus’s ears and mutters some stuff.

"Pfffffft!!! You taught her that!! That’s your technique!? Daaaaaam!!!"

"I-it was only instructions okay!! Girl talk!!" Ai said trying to save face. "nothing funny happened!"

"What a prude, I could gave taught you more stuff."

"Still what you did taught her was-you know what just come here!"

Cirrus gave her a good joyous hug.

Aisha then smirked at Ai as she hugged him back a bit tighter.

"Mmmmm enough!!" she said, breaking them up.

"Fufu, well, the offer still stands, but let me tell you a little secret, Ai." She seductively leans into her ear and whispers. "I’ll be fine with you too ♥."

"C-come on! You always do this to me!!" Ai said, blushing.

Aisha takes a step back.

"And I never lie to you! See you later, Cirrus! I have some girls to manage. " She leaves through the rooftop.

In the 5 years since Ai had known her, she was once in another Familia, but during the 4 years of Cirrus’s disappearance, her Familia got absorbed by Ishtar and is currently now the owner of the red-light district. Effectively, Aisha is the true vice-captain of the Familia since the captain doesn’t do anything but explore the dungeon and break men. The current vice-captain is…more of a boy toy for the goddess.

Aisha is widely considered to be by the girls of the red-light districts to be their older sister. She also became a level 3 during the war.

"Let’s hurry up and finish so we can leave Cirrus." Ai said angrily.

"Right! Right!"

Nighttime at Mia’s pub.

"♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪~!!"

Cirrus and Nox were playing up at the pub.

"Ay! Ay! Ay!!"

The crowd was all joining in and drinking with one another.

"Ayy!! A party!!" said Loki, with her Familia joining in.

"Oh! Cirrus is playing!" said Ais.

"Come on! Every one of you now!! ♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪~!!!"

"♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪~!!!!!!"

Everyone who enters the pub gets swept away by the music.

"Ay!! Ay!!" said Alise, joining in.

"Alise!! We can’t! We still have to save up for-"

"Don’t worry about it, Ryuu!!" said Cirrus. "I already paid 8 months in advance!! So enjoy the night!!"

"Come on, join in the fun!!" said Lyra.

"Come, elf!" said Kaguya.

"Mmmm….alright."

"YEAAAAAAAAH!!!!""

♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪♪~!!!!!!

      

Later that night.

"Phew!!! That was so much fun!!" said Nox.

"Did you enjoy your day, Nox?" asked Ai.

"Yeah! I spent some time in the café! He had some great servings of cake and tea!"

"And your stuff?"

"Packed up in my shadow! But Cirrus, wasn’t it kind of cruel to make this night be so fun?"

"…I like to think of it as a going-away party! But without any of them actually knowing it."

"Hmm…well I’m surprised Circe isn’t coming with us."

"She is rather attached to Lenoa," said Ai. "Which is odd because I thought she would stick with you, Cirrus?"

"Well they're both witches, plus I’m sure she knows I want to make sure everything is fine with her; she is getting up in years."

"Hahaha! Don’t let her catch you saying that! She’ll smack your head till you apologize!!" laughed Nox. "That old witch will outlive us all by how stubborn she is."

Arriving back home, they arrived to see Astraea looking around, waiting for them.

"Lady Astraea?" said Ai.

She turns around and gives him a warm smile.

"I came to bid you farewell. Oh, and Artemis is still unaware of your departure! You really do love making her angry. She still hasn’t decided on what your punishment would be."

"Hahaha!! Yeah, remember when she came back! She fired arrows at Cirrus for "Taking" her first time for piercing the moon!!" Nox laughed.

"I remember that!! Hahahaha!!!" laughed Ai. "You were running around all of Orario trying to avoid her shots!"

"And! And she got him like 12 times! Hahaha!! One was even in his ass!" Nox laughed even louder.

"Mmmm…"

"Oh! Oh! And the crowd of male gods all lined up to congratulate him for taking one of heaven’s three virgin goddesses!! Ahaha-hahaahahah! And then Artemis fired at them too!!!"

"Fufufu!! Ah, I remember that! What a fun day!" said Astraea, also laughing.

"Okay! Okay! No more dawdling!!" Cirrus said in an embarrassed tone of voice. "We need to get out of here before the morning. Also, I tried to explain it to her but she wouldn’t-"

"Aww is someone embarrassed," Nox said, poking his cheeks.

"Mmmm….."

"Alright, alright! That’s enough!" Ai said, holding back her laughter. "We really need to get going!"

"Alright, Cirrus, kneel down. One last update before you leave for good luck! And yes, we know you tried to explain it to her, but you have to know you took something that was very precious to her. Something she had kept well-guarded for time immemorial. She just needs some time to really think, okay?"

"I…I understand. But what we are doing will piss her off."

"Fufu do not worry. Nothing gets her to focus and calm down better than a good ol 'hunt! "

"I’ll go check to see if we missed anything!" said Ai.

"I’ll see if everything is turned off." said Nox.

They left the room for Cirrus and Astraea.

Cirrus walks over and kneels. Astraea then pricked her finger and dropped her blood on Cirrus’s bareback, raising his status.

"Tell me Cirrus…did you dislike me when you joined my Familia? We didn't get off on the right foot."

"…Somewhat, after all, I was forced to leave the god I considered like family, going to a goddess I didn’t have a good standing with."

"Mm…."

"But…after time of being around you, I have come to see you as a kind-hearted stepmother. You even tried to close the gap and talk with me more." 

"Fufu, a stepmother huh? That’s fine by me, aaand done!" She slaps a paper on his back and puts the information on it. "Here you go!"

Cirrus gets the paper and smiles.

"Just 1 level shy of reaching that coveted level 9 throne…"

"Well, now... It’s like you’re a normal adventurer, well almost. Your growth is still far faster than normal adventures, but... it is starting to slow now in comparison to your previous updates. I’m sure if you stayed in the city you could easily reach level 9."

"…I know, but there is no need to rush. After all, if I go too fast, I might run out of light for the others to follow."

"Yes…my Little Star." She hugs him one last time. "No longer are you alone in the night sky."
