Chapter 93: Quest 86- Fox “Hangout”

Waiting at central park for a bit he sees a lot of adventures going into the dungeon and there seems to be a lot more Amazoness around.

‘Seems they must be hoping to meet me…good thing they only know me when I’m wearing my mask.’

As he was waiting he sees a group of Amazoness conversing with one another, they look to be around Ai’s age, but their clothing really were like those of the adults of their race.

Glance

“shit…”

Cirrus noticed that one of the young Amazoness noticed his staring and started to walk towards him.

‘Please for the love of god walk pass me!!!!’

Like all Amazoness her skin was tanned, and her clothing were rather revealing with a purple dancing attire with a gold necklace. She had purple eyes with a bob cut with the right side of her face covered by her hair.

“Oi what are you looking at!?” she said place her barefoot onto the bench where Cirrus was sitting.

“I’m sorry you just caught my attention is all.”

“Heh~” she has a smile he only seen on adult women; Cirrus couldn’t help but find this really, really creepy. “So you find me attractive huh?”

“…I think I find you interesting is all.” He put on a fake smile.

“Well maybe I’ll go out with you if your stronger than me!”

Her other Amazon friends started to gather around them both.

“I rather not, I’m waiting for someone.”

He hoped to Astraea they would leave him alone.

“Hmm well if you don’t fight me then I’ll fight them!”

“Is that so.”

The Amazoness turned to see Ai with a spare katana by her hip. She was wearing a rather ordinary white shirt with shorts on and a straw-hat with her fox ears poking out.

“Hey Ai.” Cirrus said getting up and walking pass them to her. He thanked Susanoo for this escape. “So shall we get going?”

“Hey, don’t ignore me!” she then looked at Ai. “You! Are you his girlfriend!”

“W-what!” Her faced blushed. “N-no I’m just his-“

“Then you don’t mind if I take him do you?” she said wrapping her arms around his.

For an instant Cirrus could feel a sharp killing intent at his head coming from Ai.

‘I feel really uncomfortable. I am to old and to young for this shit.’

“What is your name?” Ai said with a smile that hid her restrained anger.

“My name is Aisha Belka! A level 1 from the Bastet Familia! and you Fox?”

“My name is Shirakusa Ai, I am a level 1 from the Susanoo Familia, so let him go.” Her smile was now more forced on, but Aisha didn’t care.

“Well how about you fight me then? If you win I’ll let you have him but if I win he’s mine!”

The air grew tense as sparks were flying between the two.

Many people started to stop and look.

“How about we take this a little more private hmm?” Cirrus said wanting to escape for the public eye.

“Fine, follow us.” Said Aisha.

Cirrus and Ai followed Aisha and her group to an alley way where they would fight.

“Is this good enough fox?” Aisha said.

“Its fine, Cirrus hold my katana.” She takes it out and hands him her blade and straw hat as she steps up.

“Your sure are confident! Let’s see if you can back those words up!” Aisha charged ahead and jumping into a right punch.

Ai simply stepped forwards, grabbed her right arm, and threw her down like in her judo practice.

“Gah!” Aisha blurted out as her back slammed against the ground.

“If I was using my katana I would have cut you down.” She then walked back to Cirrus before she got back up.

“W-were not done yet!” she said as she came again with her fists curled before.

Thud!

“Sorry but that’s enough.” Cirrus said with his hand blocking her fist.

“!!”

“You lost so how about you try again when you grow stronger?” He said with a slight smile.

Aisha could feel the stark difference in their strength from how strong his grip is when he isn’t even putting in effort.

“…” her face was slightly blushing. “F-fine! you can let go of my hand now!”

Cirrus let go of her fist and she turned around walking.

“I’ll be sure to beat you next time Fox!” she shouted as she was leaving being followed by her friends.

“…So shall we get on with our day?” he said with a smile handing her straw hat, and katana back.

Ai gets the hat and covers her face.

“T-thank you.”

For the whole day Cirrus and Ai spent the day exploring Orario and enjoying themselves or as much as they could from a crime-riddled city. They enjoyed the food of the city and some historical landmarks that still remained from the ancient times. One such place was the Hero’s Bridge, a bridge that held 31 statues of the worlds past hero’s all lined up.

“Wow! Look they even have Argonaut, Giorgio, Albert, Gilgamesh, Fulland, they even have Gintaro and Jimmu!”

“So they even have Eastern heroes huh?”

Some of the names were familiar to Cirrus but their legend's are what differentiate them from his world’s mythological counterparts.

“Say which one is your favorite? Mines is Jimmu!”

“Ah well…” Cirrus looks around to find one statues kept in poor condition. “Lets see if this is the one.” He walked over and cleaned up the plaque a bit. “Ah he is here.”

“Who is it?” she looked over and read the plaque. “Epimetheus, Hero of the 1^st Flame. Who’s that?”

“He was Gekai’s 1^st actual hero before Argonaut over there. He fought off the monsters using the Flame of Heaven.”

“Wow…but why isn’t he famous?”

“Well because his story wasn’t a comedy or uplifting he just sorta fought and then lost against the Black Beasts. Then he just sort of…left his own story.” Cirrus leaves out some parts to the story just to not concern Ai of anything. “That and also his story isn’t very published nowadays.”

“So is he your favorite?”

“He is. After facing…you know that mountain I grew to appreciate what he did on his own. Plus without him the rest of those heroes-“ he looked down the lines to the end where Albert was looking at a empty spot where a new hero could be placed. “Wouldn’t have had the chance to shine.”

Ai looked at him as he was and looked at the empty spot. With what he had accomplish he could very well be the next hero, hell even the city thinks he is the next hero.

“Cirrus did you even dream of being a hero?”

He took a moment to think on it and his disposition slightly changed but not so much as to be concerning.

“Yeah…but now I really I want to.”

“Why is that?”

“…Personal reasons.” He looked at her and smiled a bit. “Let get going I’ll buy you a potato snack.” He then walked on ahead.

“Come on tell me!” she said coming after him.

“If you don’t hurry I won’t pay!”

“Wait for me!”

As Ai caught up to him he slightly glanced back seeing the statues of the heroes of old again. He then looked forward.

Heroes of the classical era from his former world were a different breed from them than those of the modern era he use to live in. They were blood and glory thirsty warriors who slew man and beast like a farmer cutting wheat. Jason, Heracles, Odysseus, Theseus, Bellerophon, Perseus, and Achilles, these were the heroes that suck to his mind. None of them had a happy ending. Cirrus knows he is more of the classical era hero then a modern heroes he remembers hazily.  He is known more for his battle prowess then anything else. Maybe at one point he wished for it but now...he doesn’t what his legacy to only be that of death.

 

At the end of the day he walked her back home and then left back home himself.

           

While walking back home through a dark alley a shadow came out of the darkness.

“Cirrus.” Said Fels.

“Fels. Is something wrong?”

“No, but we have found that we have some reliable information on Telskyura.”

“Really? Did you go to Lord Anansi for the information?”

“Not exactly, this source is far easier on the wallet and is 100% reliable.”

“And the source is?”

“Bara of the Loki Familia, she was once a member of the Kali Familia so she may know information on the country and Familia better than The Library.”

'Well shit.'

 

Back in Telskyura.

“Hm♪ Hm♪ Hm♪ Hm♪” Kali is walking by with a spring in her step as she skips down the hall.

“Lady Kali you’re in a good mood.” Said Bache.

“I am! You see that battle right! Zephyr and that mountain! Aww~ it’s like the child wanted to steal my heart! That raw destructiveness! That power!! It truly brought out the goddess of destruction in me! where is Alecto by the way! Is she making progress?”

“Hmm well some of the Amazoness are helping them, they have taken a liking to their captain.”

“Of course! They are Amazoness they are drawn to strong people! Ah I can’t wait until that White-Clothed Calamity to come here!”

Kali looks out to see some ships in the distance.

Down in the ocean depths.

“It took a while, but we found it Lady Alecto.” Said Turn.

“Months to find this wet drippy place, there’s moss everywhere…”

“Then we should hurry and get this done.” Said Mata. “Lady Alecto do you know how to unseal the monster?”

“Sadly no but from what Loviatar had showed I can forcibly tear it down but…given this monsters nature I need to be careful in how I go about it.”

“And how long will that take?”

“I don’t know but I’m sure I’ll learn as it goes along.” A faint glow of Arcanum emits off of Alecto.
