Danmachi: Westward Cloud [Complete]

[Vol.3] Quest 256.6- The Last Stars Shine Once More

The day before the raid.

The back of Mia’s pub at night.

“Ryuu, do you still have that orb?” asked Cirrus.

“I do. I kept it safe. Cirrus… is it time?” her tone grew darker.

“It is. We're going to finish the job.”

Cirrus then hands her a box with Astraea’s emblem on it.

“This is…”

“It’s gear, you will go with the vanguard, making your way through it all.”

“And you?” she said, taking the box.

“I’ll be going with you unless you wish to go with Bell’s group?”

“He is coming as well!?”

“He is. He’s helping a certain group with clearing the Knossos and they feel better with him there.”

“Then I shall go with them. I don’t want Syr to be saddened if anything happens to him.”

“Hmm… well maybe you can help her get a date with him for the Goddess Festival in what? A week or so?”

“Hm.” Ryuu nods. “I take it this is a way to repay me?”

“Yup! Besides, she seems to have an interest in him from the times I come by, just so you know if he doesn’t wish to pursue her romantically, you shouldn’t force them. That is the purpose of a date.”

“… I didn’t consider his feelings…” she muttered. “Very well. If he doesn’t wish to purpose to a lovely girl like Syr, then it is his choice.”

“Then I’ll see you tomorrow. Go to Bell’s Familia home early in the morning. Alright. It’s going to be a long day.”

"Hm." Ryuu nods. "Very well. Let us finally get rid of this stain from the city."

Overhearing them, Freya smiles.

“Fufu seems I need to plan a date!”

Syr walked away with a pep to her step and a sway to her hips, grinning.
