Chapter 20: Things fall into place

Last time:

With the plan set Akio and Aurora left to complete the labyrinth.. again. On a side note Akio has yet to gain the creation magic as he hasn't let his victory over the hydra be known by the labyrinth.

——————————————————————————

Akio decided to just give Aurora the 'Fruits of evolution'. She cringed at the disgusting taste but continued eating until both of them were gone.

"That has to be the most disgusting thing I've ever tasted, why is it that fruits that give power ups always taste disgusting." Aurora sighed while remembering a show about a certain rubber-man with a straw hat.

Akio laughed before taking out a status plate and telling her to drop blood on it and let her soul be read. When she did her current status appeared.

It seemed Aurora had a extremely high aptitude for all types of magic, her talent was even higher than Yue. He decided he would see if Yue's bizarre way of teaching would help her at all.

He then gave Aurora a power boost with his skill. The power boost increased her attack to around 50,000 which would be more than enough to blitz past the first couple of floors in the real dungeon. Surprisingly, Aurora got used to killing monsters fairly fast, and was able to go through the first 10 levels with no assistance from Akio. From there they continued their descent downward.

——————————————————————————

In the Heiligh Kingdom the uproar of the disappearance of Akio and co had become public. Eliheid had issued a gag order out for everyone who knew of the situation but it did nothing to stop the spread.

Pope Ishtar had gone out to the center of the Capital City and spat some bullshit about there being no reason to fear as they still had the hero who undoubtedly would put an end to the demons. The citizens easily believed the words of the pope and soon the news of the disappearance was replaced by people praising the hero and his party.

On the second week they had arrived in Tortus, the hero party had set out for the labyrinth in Horaud. There they had lost one of their 'comrades' Nagumo Hajime after someone misfired and hit him. Thats what they believed anyway and had no intention of prying any further into it. The Holy Church and Kingdom had brushed off the matter as they didn't see Hajime as useful in the first place with his weak transmute.

Even if they brushed off the death of their classmate they were still reminded of the fact that they weren't invincible and could easily die just like their classmate. This left most of them scared of fighting and traumatized. Pope Ishtar tried convincing them but after a strong resistance by their teacher Aiko, in which she threatened to stop her farm work they relented and agreed to only let those who wanted to fight.

In the long hallway of the castle a maid walks. She was dressed in nun habit that hid her hair and shadowed most of her face. The parts of her face that could be seen were shown to have no expression, like a doll. This woman kept walking down the hallway until she stopped in front of a empty room. Making sure no one was approaching she went inside. As soon as the door to the room closed she disappeared, and reappeared in a white empty space. In front of her was a artifact she used to communicate with her lord, thats right this seemingly normal maid is actually the apostle Noint. Noint kneeled in front of the artifact and waited to hear her lord's voice. "Noint what is your report." When she waited for a minute a voice that was indistinguishable from a male or female spoke out to her. "My lord several unknowns have presented themselves."

——————————————————————————

While Noint was giving her report, on another side of the world in the nation of Verbergen deep in the forest a clan of rabbit-man can be seen walking cautiously. These rabbit-man were extremely frail as if they had never lifted more than a flower. Among these rabbits one blue haired girl stood out. She unlike the rest was not extremely frail, she had aura of optimism and her soul seemed vibrant. She suddenly was given a vision and in it appeared an extremely attractive man with white hair and yellow eyes. She could see herself with the man surrounded by a bunch of other woman. When the vision was over a large smile appeared on her face. She couldn't wait to meet the person who would save her.

——————————————————————————

In the hidden village of the dragonmen tribe a young looking girl with black hair and yellow eyes said her final goodbyes. She then turned into a dragon before flapping her wings and taking flight. Her clan had found out about the hero summoning and she had made a decision to investigate and hopefully find an ally to help with their fight against Ehit.

——————————————————————————

A week had passed in the labyrinth with only a couple of hours passing outside. Akio had made a barrier around the labyrinth to slow time. He didn't want to much stuff happening while he was preoccupied.

'Splat'

Aurora used air magic to compress the air around all 6 of the hydras head's. The air was so compressed that it with only a few seconds completely crushed the head's killing the hydra in the process.

Aurora had gotten insanely strong over the course of the capture of the dungeon. As it turns out the blessing she was given by Ava raised her growth rate by 50x instead of 25x like it did for the other girls. This brought her mastery of all elements to master class, and her stats skyrocketed to the point where the power up Akio gave her was insignificant. She also received the effects of the Fruit of Evolutions and had gained a massive amount of strength. (A/N: Im gonna make a power scaling Auxiliary chapter some time soon.)

"Congrats, you've really gotten a hell of a lot stronger."

Aurora soon went through the door that led to Oscars home and the place of the ancient magic. She and Akio had long since felt the presence of another person. When they arrived to the house they were greeted by Hajime who had finally completed the labyrinth and was currently working on a gun. He now had a bionic arm attached to his missing arm. Hajime who yet again felt Akio's presence, learned to not be surprised by his sudden appearances and only have his greeting. "Hey Izumi, are you here to make a order." His voice trailed off at the end after seeing Aurora. He stood in a daze at the appearance of Aurora, how could he not, she was simply to beautiful. Akio being the over protective boyfriend he was, raised a tiny amount his bloodlust and coughed. Hajime seeing the look in his eye turned his head away, cold sweat pouring down his back. Akio sighed before responding "Nah, not yet I'm simply here to help my lover get the ancient magic." He made sure to emphasize the word lover making sure Hajime had absolutely no ideas.

Akio went on to introduce herself, making up a lie that she was saved by Akio when she was attacked by bandits and fell in love yada-yada. She spat cliché lines that came naturally from her countless hours of anime. When they were finished they proceeded to the room with the ancient magic before Aurora went through the process of getting the magic. Akio still wanted to make use of the hydra for getting points so he didn't get the magic and simply chose to wait.

"You know, it's about time for the berserker rabbit to appear." Aurora spoke sitting down in Akio's lap taking a break after the intense headache. Akio of course knew who she was referring to and nodded his head. "You want her, I know you do." Akio sighed at his lover instantly seeing through him. Aurora giggled "I approve, I like her character." Akio smiled warmly at Aurora "Thanks for letting me be selfish." He hugged her tighter and they discussed their future actions before returning back to their home.

Before he left Akio made Hajime a separate dimension, with a workshop and house.

"How the hell can you just pull shit like this out of nowhere" Hajime sighed at the absurdity of his now boss. "Secret" Akio simply replied like that. "Well, is there anything else you need." Akio questioned Hajime knowing there was something on his mind. "Yea actually can you make a portal to the kingdom I want to check on someone." Akio made a knowing smile before he made a portal to the castle and more specifically outside Yuka Sonobe's room.

Things for whatever reason had changed in this multiverse Hajime actually managed to make a friend. Hajime was still a loner who spent all his time on his hobbies and slept in class. Due to this he wasn't close to any of his classmates. This changed however when his family went out to celebrate the success of his father's game by eating at a high reviewed restaurant. This just so happened to be the one Yuka's family owned. It wasn't long before Yuka and Hajime were found out to be classmates and they were forced by their parents to introduce each other to them. Like that both families had become friends and they would often come to the restaurant. Yuka and Hajime became slower and she had taken a spot in his heart, while Yuka started to develop feelings for him.

Before Hajime walked through the portal Akio gave him a controller he bought from the system that would give him access to the dimension. Hajime walked through after Akio wished him luck with a smile.

——————————————————————————

Akio and co spent 2 weeks in the dimension going about their usual schedule of training in magic, then spending time together, eating, having wild sex and then visiting Ava when they slept. The girls had all reached ultimate class in their less used magic and master class for their more used magic. Aurora on the other hand was halfway to grandmaster class in all types of magic, while Yue wasn't far behind.

When they finally left the dimension they used the teleportation circle in Orcus and went to the Raisen grand canyon before making their way to Miledi's labyrinth.

——————————————————————————

(A/N: This chapter was mainly to just wrap up volume 2. Im gonna say this now but I have every intention of adding Miledi to the harem. Ok I might as well give you guys the plan for the harem right now tell me if you don't like something or want someone switched. Harem as of Arifureta world: Yue, Komi, Shizuku, Kaori, Shea, Tio, Remia, and Miledi. Im not exactly sure how many members will be in the harem, it really depends on the world. What I was thinking of doing was going to only 2 more worlds before finishing this fic and then making another where the harem will be more like Pokémon. It's either that or continuing with this fic for a bunch of worlds and adding hella girls. If I did that it would just turn into 20 consecutive chapters of harem shenanigans and character development and not a lot of action, or power growth and plot. Well in the future I will make another vote for now though bye bye
