*SEMI EDITED*

The rest of the day was awkward to say the least. After the café incident me and the gang went around checking out a couple of stalls. Buying the occasional snack. Sky had calmed down after awhile but still glared at Hephaestus whenever she had the chance. Hephaestus however seemed unperturbed by Skys antics.

We finally managed to actually get to the coliseum just as it was about to start. Taking our seats I looked over the the audience. I found 2 familia members of mine in the crowd. Respectively being Speedy and Mila from the first tier team sitting next to each other. I waited for what seemed like an eternity when you are sitting between Heph and Sky before it finally started.

"I AM GANESHA!" Ganesh started with. Truly what a suprise.

"I AM HAPPY TO SEE ALL OF YOU HERE TO WATCH THE FIGHTS FOR I AM GANESHA!"

Most people hadn't been with Ganesh for 60 minutes while trying to explain stuff to him therefore they clapped after his 5 minute speech. Now that! That suprised me. 5 minutes Ganesh? It feels like I'm in wonderland if it wasn't for Sky and Heph of course.

"NOW BRING IN THE MONSTERS!"

The fights were boring for me however the common folk cheered for each charge the monster did when trying to hit the monster tamer. Heph seemed slightly interested in the fight while Sky looked wholly unimpressed. Emma was practically bouncing on her seat even when they paused to let the monster tamer take a breather.

------------------------------------------------

After the coliseum we decided we would head home.

Moving in the crowd I finally managed to shake off Heph since she actually needed to help her familia with something. Me Sky and Emma started moving towards our headquarters. Taking a shortcut through the extensive network that was the Orario backstreets. The reason why we knew where we needed to go was because I ordered it mapped from my mid tier team before.

After a bit we came to a square with four entrances. The square looked deserted. I nodded to myself only 3 minutes of walking then we should be back home. Something made me stop however as with my heightened senses I felt people approaching our position. Stopping in my tracks Sky and Emma did so as well. After around 1 to 2 seconds after I did it Sky seemed to notice it too and prepared for a fight.

I sighed at her behavior. Who would be foolish enough to try and kill a god? Nobody that's who. After a couple of seconds 9 armed people and a female entered the square. Looking more closely at the female I remembered her as the crazy girl in the tower.

She smiled ever so sweetly at me making my highly unnerved. I decided to speak up to break the status quo after a couple of seconds of staring.

"So what's going on exactly?"

Her smile became even bigger.

"I know that you are using your arcana." She said in a singsong voice.

Whatever reaction she expected to her words were soon betrayed by my nonchalance

"So what?"

Seemingly confused she answered

"What do you mean so what? If this comes out then you will get sent back to Tenkai!"

"Well yes and no I suppose however I need to know one thing. Are you blackmailing me or just warning me? And for what purpose?"

This time her smile came back if ever so slightly smaller.

"Hmm blackmailing is a bad word. I just want you to follow me and I'll show you what love truly is. As for the purpose well you are to be my thing of course."

After she said that Sky tightened her hands on her bow aiming it straight towards the goddess. I quickly made a sign behind my back telling her to step down.

"While that does sound fun cray cray, there is only a tiny problem here. You see when you make up plans you need more than just the blackmail. Knowledge. Now do you have knowledge about my abilities? Of course not since you decided to do it like this. Now the golden word has always been information. I have been through hundreds of well thought out plans with information and they failed. Now do you really think you can just waltz in here and blackmail me and not suffer repercussion? I said in a dark tone.

The crazy girl seemed incredibly confused on these turn of events.

"Now I ask of you what would happen if I turn off my arcana? You never realised I could just turn it off? Or why I had it on in the first place? Tsk tsk this is why you need to gather information." I reprimanded her while waving one finger infront of her. glancing at her bodyguards they all seemed incredibly agitated. Looking back at her I smiled. While you couldn't see the smile I was pretty sure she could sense it and the ever increasing dread on her face confirmed it. I dispelled all of my divine spells. Her eyes growing wide like saucers and she practically screamed in desperation. Her words being.

"Impossible! I still can't see your soul! How?!"

"Oh, you have some soul thingy spell perhaps? Well if it is a ninth tier spell or below they don't do anything and gets dispelled immediately upon impact or whatever other methods you may have."

Now for the finishing blow.

"So you never had a chance. I only used my arcana in case there were anything strong in this world. But nothing was meaning I actually never needed them. I had them around just in case. So now that you lost your blackmail you got nothing against me anymore. Your plan is in ruins. I am merciful however if you walk away now I wont pursue this transgression. What is your choice?"

A extreme amount of emotions flickered in and out of her eyes making me slightly amazed and disturbed on how many emotions you could really see. Bizzare was the only word that could describe it.

Finally her decision came by jumping at me and grabbing my leg. While muttering "Mine, Only Mine." over and over again. Seemed like she had a mental breakdown in the conversation. When that happend her goons tried to attack however I used a sleep spell and they all fell on the ground unconscious. Deciding that this was not my responsibility I took her to a special god and explained the situation. Of course I didn't tell her anything about the spells. The god I brought her to was Astraea the goddess of justice. She seemed quite angry when she got sight of the crazy gal on my leg. I left her there and left as quickly as I could after I finished explaining since that blind fold made me feel weird for some reason.

After that I went home to spend the rest of my day with my familia.

-------------------------------------------------------

The day after the festival

I looked over the room. The whole day today I had been making sure that things wouldn't fall apart just because of my absence. I was almost ready to embark to the next portal. Sky wanted to join me however I refused. Seeing me so adamant to going alone she eventually gave in.

Also in regards to the crazy chick who I later learned was the goddess Freya from norse mythology. She was literally the goddess of love and had a fetish for souls apparently. She was supposedly not allowed to fall in love with other gods. Her punishment was house arrest in the tower of Babel. A bit lenient if you ask me till they said she was supposed to be up there a few decades. Then I almost felt bad for her. I mean love comes in many forms sometimes bad sometimes good. It was her nature was it not? Well It is not my problem anymore.

It was instead finally time to venture out and see a whole new world. Hoping that perhaps the world is a spa. That would've been nice.

Oh well... To Infinity and Beyond!
