Unfortunately, the entire spectacle was completely ignored by the Loki Familia since their eyes had been trained on only him ever since they returned. From overhearing conversations, Godou knew a few of the members. He'd met Loki and Aiz before already of course, but he recognized the short blond Pallum as Finn, their captain, and the green-haired Elf as Riveria, the vice-captain. There was a Dwarf by the name of Gareth as well, but Godou didn't see him around.
Finn's gaze lingered on Bete's form for a moment. "He's not dead...is he?"
To be honest, Godou hadn't checked, but he hadn't hit Bete that hard. Still, he shrugged, prompting Riveria to kneel down and perform some healing magic.
"So," Loki began, sounding rather annoyed. "What happened? Why is one of my top adventurers in such a sorry state after chasing a cook from a bar?"
"He tripped," Godou replied blandly.
"He has three fractured ribs," interjected Riveria.
Loki raised an eyebrow at him.
The entire table, about a dozen members present, turned back to face him. By now, the entire tavern was looking at him, including the staff and a very irritated-looking Mama Mia, and Godou felt very put off by the attention.
"Fine," Godou said. He lifted a hand and pointed a finger at Bell's exhausted form. "He did it."
It was going to take more than stares to drag a confession out of him.
The sheer incredulity of being accused seemed to fill Bell with life, and he bounced back upright, vehemently shaking his head and waving his arms in denial. "Me? That's not true at all! Bete wanted Godou to follow him, but Godou didn't want to. Then Bete drew out his knives and Godou kicked him and then Bete fainted!"
The outburst had expended what little energy he had left, and Bell sunk into a chair, breathing deeply.
Godou was unimpressed. What a little snitch.
"Self-defence," Godou said sagely. It was true. Bete had taken out his weapons after all.
Loki squinted at him. The rest seemed skeptical as well.
"One kick?" Aiz tilted her head and asked.
Godou nodded. "One kick."
"Bete's a Level Five," Finn said, his entire body exuding doubt.
"Well, you can ask him. He's going to wake up right about...now," Godou said. He'd seen Bete's fingers twitch slightly.
True to his word, the werewolf suddenly sat up straight, gasping for air and clutching his stomach. The bruise there had faded significantly, and Godou had to admit he was slightly impressed by the healing technique Riveria had used.
"YOU!" The Werewolf yelled, pointing a sharp-nailed finger at him. He tried to lunge up, but suddenly stopped with a wince and clutched his side.
"You're ribs are still healing," Riveria informed him. "Try to be a good boy and sit still."
Godou found Bete's subsequent glare to be as intimidating as a puppy's.
"What was that thing you did?" Bete demanded. "I've never seen any magic that lets people travel that fast! I could barely track your movements and Werewolves' have the best senses!"
"Oh? So let's add super speed to your list of mysterious abilities," Loki said slyly, causing Godou's lips to sink into a frown. Campiones liked keeping their Authorities a secret, and even though he had plenty of other skills to rely on, he didn't like it when people knew what he was capable of.
It only made them want to challenge him more.
A gold flash suddenly interrupted the conversation, and Aiz Wallenstein was now squatting dangerously close in front of Bete. The Werewolf turned as red as a tomato, scooting backwards from the sudden proximity. "Aiz?" the Werewolf asked uncertainly.
The Sword Princess cocked her head slightly to the side, and in her demure and soft voice, she said, "one kick?"
Godou almost spat out in laughter, but it would've ruined the moment, and according to Erica and Ena, he'd done that more than enough already.
Bete blinked rapidly, clearly confused. Then realization hit him and he turned away and huffed. "Yeah, so? I heard you got your sword stolen too, so that makes us equal."
Aiz flinched. She stared down at Bete hard, before standing up and extending an arm to help him up. When he accepted it, she nodded. "Equal."
"Great!" Godou clapped. "So everybody's made up. Let's adjourn this meeting and-"
"Nuh uh uh," Loki stood up and put a finger to his lips. "We've only started the party. Well done Bete! Even if you got your ass kicked, you still brought Kusanagi Godou to me. Ten points!"
"Points? I thought I'd get a Grimoire-"
"Now Kusanagi Godou." Loki put her arms at her side and puf
fed up her chest. She extended an arm out to him. "Join my Familia."
