[Chapter Size: 2300 Words.]Third Person POVSomewhere outside Orario.

  ...

  ...

  Lucius and Riveria tio watch the group led by the goddess Artemis as they explored the forest.

  "It's been years since I've seen her... I remember she left Orario some time ago for a mission for the hunting guild... I never expected to find her here..." Riveria ented in Lucius's p.

  "Riveria, there's somethihat makes me uneasy," Lucius began, knowing what was going to happen with this goddess and her family, but he framed it as a bad feeling to avoid making Riveria think he was crazy. "I feel that something bad is going to happen to your family."

  Listening attentively, Riveria looked at Lucius somewhat surprised and asked, "What makes you think that, Lucius? Do you have any specififormation?"

  Lucius sighed, weighing his words. "It's not crete information, it's more of a... premonition. Since I started to enhance my magical abilities and explore the nuanana more deeply, I've begun to notice certain patterns and fluctuations. And now, seeing Artemis here, I sense her dark path."

  Riveria pondered his words. "Artemis has always been known for her leadership skills and being a skilled huntress. If she's here and has been out of Orario for a long time, it might be an important mission given by the guild."

  Lucius nodded. "Exactly. And that leads me to believe we might be on the brink of ahat could affeot just the Artemis Familia, but possibly all of Orario and the world. I feel I must find out what's happening."

  Riveria, looking ily at Lucius and not knowing what to say, but notig his focus, asked, "What do you pn to do now, Lucius?"

  He turo her, "I'm going to iigate this. I o uand what's happening and if there's anything threatening Orario or any of its families."

  "Are you really sure about this? But I... I o go back to Orario, Loki must be worried about my disappearance since yesterday."

  Lucius nodded, respeg her responsibility. "I uand. Your obligations to your family are important. I will hahis."

  "It's not that, if it's something so important and you're sure, I'll trust you. Take me with you, I'll help you." She said with some determination and affe in her gaze.

  "If you really want to e, the most beautiful mage I know is always wele," Lucius smiled at an embarrassed Riveria, but also smiled with Lucius.

  Lucius held Riveria firmly, preparing to return to Orario. With a brief nod to her, using his teleportation power. In an instant, they began to rise, floatily into the sky. The ndscape below them quickly turned into a blur as Lucius activated his teleportation magic.

  Artemis walking through the forest and killing any mohat appeared, suddenly looked up at the sky.

  "Any problem, Artemis-Sama?" One of her daughters also looked at the sky seeing her goddess act strangely.

  "Strange... I had a feeling of being watched... Anyway, let's move on!" She announced, and all her daughters followed her.

  With a series of teleports, they quickly moved through the sky, approag Orario which eventually appeared on the horizon, and they soon reached the city.

  Lucius and Riveria approached the Twilight Mansion

  discreetly. He chose a secluded spot for nding, where they wouldn't be seen by prying eyes. The city of Orario was a whirlwind of rumors and specution, and they knew any carelessness could fuel the gossip even more, especially given their retionships, as many people had seen them dand eveer the dungeon alone. Lucius gently released Riveria, ensuring she was safe and stable after the flight.

  "Thank you, Lucius," she said, a faint smile on her lips and her face quite red. "For everything. It was... unfettable."

  Lucius just nodded, a faint smile on his lips. "Anything for you, Riveria. Now, you should go to your family. And I have some things to iigate before we leave Orario again, I will get authorization from the guild for this, do you think your family will allow you to join this mission?" He asked.

  There was a brief moment of hesitation before Riveria leaned in, pnting a quick but emotionally charged kiss on Lucius's lips. She stepped back slightly, her eyes shining with a mix of happiness and a touch of sadness for the farewell.

  "I... o go now, I'll sort things out with my family and you get that guild authorization," she murmured, clearly relut to leave the moment behind, but she quickly hurried to her mansion's house.

  Lucius smiled watg the elf leave, seeing her disappear while she gnced back at him now and then, Lucius began to levitate and teleport towards the sky to the old mansion of Heimdall.

  Riveria approached the Loki Mansion, her heart heavy with the emotions of the previous day and the night when she lost her virginity, giving her heart to a human for the first time in her life. Upon arrival, she found Loki waiting for her at the gate with some guards and two other executives of the family like her, Finn and Gareth, the goddess's expression a mix of and relief as she ran to her outside the gate.

  "Riveria!" Loki excimed, her tone den with emotion. "Where have you been? You disappeared for aire day! Everyone in the family was incredibly worried!" Loki ran towards Riveria who stopped her before she could jump on the elf.

  Loki's words made Riveria feel a bit guilty. "Sorry about that, I should have informed, I had a personal matter," she said apologetically.

  "Personal matter? I knew you were fine, but we were a bit worried, you disappeared." Finn appeared with a sly look at Riveria, who had to avert despite always appearing in trol, this type of situation was o her.

  "BUUAAAA! MOMMY DISAPPEARED FOR A DAY AND SHE DOESN'T EVEN WANT MY HUG!?" Loki began to cry while Riveria tried to avoid the approach of the goddess of lies.

  "Personal affairs? I see that this has to do with love!" Gareth approached, looking closely at Riveria. The elf had to lower her head a bit embarrassed.

  "There's nothing wrong in falling for someone Riveria, just don't vanish like that in your love escapades. Hahahahaha!" Gareth excimed again.

  "I..." Riveria didn't know what to do.

  "It's okay, Riveria, you don't o expin, what matters is that you are safe," Finn spoke, Riveria's i in Lucius of the Hestia Familia was to many in the family.

  "Riveria, wait! You... you were corrupted by that mage from the Hestia Familia!" Loki excimed dramatically, with a face of horror. "My poor 'Mommy'!" She put her hands on her cheeks, feigning ic despair.

  Riveria, caught off guard by Loki's etricity, couldn't help but smile, despite her emotional state. "Loki, I wasn't 'corrupted' by anyone," she replied, trying to maintain her posure.

  Loki, tinuing her drama to a dramatic faint. "Oh, my Mommy Riveria, what did that mage do to you?!" she excimed, before looking at Riveria with a lifeless gaze.

  Meanwhile, oher side of the city, back at Heimdall Mansion, Lucius fouia in an evident state of impatience. "Lucius, where have you been?!" she excimed as soon as she saw him. "Loki was here yesterday, she spent all night waiting for you and Riveria to show up! Do you know what I had to eh that ft-chested goddess threatening me as you and Riveria didn't show up?"

  Lucius, a bit surprised by Loki's prese his house, raised an eyebrow. "Loki slept here? Waiting for us?"

  Hestia nodded, clearly frustrated. "Yes, she was worried about Riveria, said you might have corrupted her or something. But she also wao know what was going oween you two. She made a fuss and didn't let anyone sleep properly!"

  Lucius let out a light sigh, uanding the situation. "I see... Loki has always been... peculiar," Lucius murmured.

  Hestia crossed her arms, looking at Lucius with a mixed expression of irritation and . "You o be careful, Lucius. You finally got your hands on that goddess's elf? You are very shameless, Lucius!" Hestia pined.

  "Let's set that aside, where are the others?" Lucius asked.

  "They went to the duo introduce Cassandra and Dapho the team," she spoke.

  "I see, anyway, I'm leaving for a few days, maybe weeks," Lucius announced.

  "What?! What do you mean? What are you pnning?" She asked with suspicious eyes at Lucius, w what kind of trouble he was going to get into this time.

  Lucius sighed and expined, "I have something important to do, and it's reted to your friend Artemis. It's very likely that she will die or worse in the ing days." Lucius spoke, leaviia stunned.

  "WHAT?! Artemis?! What's going to happen to her?" Hestia shouted armed.

  "Don't worry, I'll ha," Lucius said fidently ao speak with Riekling.

  "Riekling, I need you to steal all the books from the guild's library reted to a certai..." Lucius called Riekling, and he listeo his master.

  "But Master Lucius, you wao steal from the library? Isn't that a crime?" He asked cautiously.

  "It is, Riekling. But only if you get caught. I know you have the skill to do this without being caught. you do it?" Lucius smiled at his elf.

  "Yes, Riekling will do it!" He excimed.

  Sometime ter, Riekling appears with several books by his side.

  "Riekling got all from the year of this event since I didn't know which books the master might need for information," Riekling said.

  "That's great," Lucius thanked him and began to read all the books about the year Antares emerged from the dungeon and was sealed by a people over a thousand years before even the creation of Orario.

  [Author here: I'll put the story of Antares like this, if I'm wrong because I'm basically iing his backstory, put it in the ents.]

  Lucius used his magic to start reading the books for aire night, as he could have a greater tration than before. It was only after 14 hours of reading 20 books that he finally finished everything.

  "I think I have enough evidence for this now," Lucius stood up with his notes and spoke to Riekling.

  "You return all the other books, I didn't read them all, but I already have enough to prove my hypotheses to the guild."

  "Yes, Master Lucius," he said and disappeared with the rest of the books.

  Lucius left the Twilight Mansion and headed to the guild. He quickly traveled to the tower and nded in the guild leader's room, where his old elf friend worked.

  Upon arrival, he entered directly into the guild leader's room, without any formalities. The guild leader looked at him in surprise, but before he could say anything, Lucius spoke firmly: "I o speak with Fels. Call him, please."

  "..." Royman Mardeel was a bit nervous but did what Lucius said.

  Pressing a button in the room, Fels appeared 30 seds ter.

  "Lucius... I was looking into a ret theft in the guild's library," he spoke in his always distorted voice.

  "Don't worry, the theft was me, I've already returned all the books, I have something important to discuss with you and Ouranos, we see him?" Lucius said to their surprise, but Fels asked.

  "What's so important?" He said curiously.

  "It's better to speak in front of him, but it's about freeing a mohat absorb a god to bee stronger, and there's a certain goddess heading to this monster's

  ir," Lucius spoke seriously, and after a moment, Fels nodded and led Lucius out.

  "Lucius, I didn't expect to see you so soon..." Ouranos looked at Lucius and spoke.

  "Hello, God Ouranos. I have something that might i you," Lucius said, handing over a book with some sketches.

  "This..." Ouranos looked at Lucius's notebook with i.

  "Do you see these runes?"

  "Yes, they were used in aimes, before the gods came to Genkai... This monster has a lot of them, but I don't know what they mean, as it's a very a and lost nguage of this world," Ouranos spoke.

  "Actually, I know a bit about them after reading; it's basic, but it seems they are an imitation of divine glyphs. The duried to replicate something powerful and succeeded..." Lucius murmured.

  "What do you mean..." Ouranos asked curiously.

  "Look at the e, and you will uand," Lucius said, and Ouranos turhe page.

  "..." He fell silent and looked at Lucius seriously.

  "This is serious, the one who took the mission in this region was Artemis more than 2 years ago. She never succeeded, do you think she might be in danger?" Ouranos asked seriously.

  "She's already in dahat's why I ermission to leave Orario with Riveria from the Loki Familia. I'm leaving as soon as I leave here."

  "... Alright, you have permission for that. Fels, make an official note for Lucius, he has permission to leave."

  "Thank you, God Ouranos," Lucius said and headed towards the exit.
