Danmachi: Westward Cloud [Complete]

Quest 46- Day of Rest

Four days later, back on the surface.

“You have many Development abilities to choose from Blacksmith, Martial Arts, Crush.” Said Ouranos updating Cirrus’s status.

“What’s Martial Arts? Does it like help with my fighting?”

“It has never come up in any of the Guild’s records, so it must be a rare development ability.” Said Fels.

“Then I can get the other ones at other level-ups?”

“Yes.” Said Ouranos. “Blacksmith and Crush are very common abilities to get again.”

“Then Martial Arts it is.”

“Very well.”

Ouranos finished updating the status and handed Cirrus the paper.

Cirrus Zephyr

Lv. 4

Strength: I0     Endurance: I0

Dexterity: I0    Agility: I0

Magic: I0          Mage: G

“Hmm…. Thank you, Lord Ouranos.”

Cirrus then burns the paper and walks down the throne.

“You have grown well, Cirrus,” Ouranos said upon his solemn throne.

“Well, it has been… a long time… it feels like forever ago.”

“Maybe you should take a break?” Fels said. “For a child to feel like an adult is not healthy.”

“Huh… I'll take you up on that, ill see you later.” Cirrus nods and takes a secret passage before heading home.

“Lord Ouranos, he really has grown far stronger and quicker than even Hera and Zeus’s children… will you still be able to give him your Falna at this rate?”

Ouranos looks at Fels with quiet eyes.

“His stats are all above 4000 in total for each parameter. When he reaches level 5, I can no longer support him.”

“I… I see.”

“Worry not Fels I am sure there are gods who will give him a hand.”

“That is not what I am worried about, Lord Ouranos, it’s his power… his skills.”

“That is something to be considered, but it is Cirrus’s choice for who he will choose.”

Arriving back home, Cirrus drops off a few things. Nox was reading some of Cirrus’s books on his bed.

“Your back Cirrus.” Nox said, glancing at Cirrus from her book. “So, are we gonna go back into the dungeon?”

“No, I’m taking a break today… and maybe a few more.”

“Oh?” she closed her book and looked at Cirrus. “That’s new. For all the time I’ve known you, this is the first time you are taking a break.”

“Yeah… it's been a while for me as well. Since I gained a Falna, I’ve been exploring the dungeon and dealing with Evilus… I kinda just wanna have fun?”

“Hmmm… so what you wanna play with kids your age? Do you even have friends your own age?”

“… Shit I- no wait… I do!”

“Heh~ interesting… have fun, Deer!”

Cirrus stops in his tracks.

“Please don’t call me that, too.”

“Fufu why not! It’s kinda cute, no?”

“… I’m leaving.”

“Boooo! Get over it!”

“Never!”

She then reopened her book and begin to read again. Cirrus gets his sword and places it on his hip and goes downstairs.

“Aunty Len, I’m going to see a friend!”

“Okay,” she said, reading her books on herbs.

Cirrus leaves through the back, and Lenoa stops stirring her cauldron.

“… Friends?”

Walking through the streets of Orario is still rather dangerous but with the appearance of the Astraea Familia and their strict code of justice they have significantly been slowly taming the chaos as well as the Ganesha Familia, young as they might be they still boaster far more than Astraea’s Familia, but their quality is… not up to par.

“Hmm… their home should be around here?”

Cirrus stands before Facilis looking around.

“… Did she go this way?”

Walking around for a bit, Cirrus started to get an understanding of this section of the city but still had a hard time finding their Familia home.

Standing before their Familia home was a rather large Japanese-styled mansion.

“Uhh…”

Knock!

Knoc--!!

Just as Cirrus was about to knock again, the doors slammed open.

“Cirrus!!!”

Ai came out head-butting Cirrus to the ground.

Thud!!!

“Guwah!!”

“Cirrus! Where have you been for the last few months!!” Ai said on top of him.

“Ugh... Uhh, busy?”

“… Why didn’t you send a letter!!” she then started to hit Cirrus with her weak punches.

‘Well, shit.’
