yourself.”
Loki was shaken and looked as if she was about to burst out crying before suddenly smiling with Aiz’s dark red handprint still pulsing on her face. She looked to the sky and yelled, “Shy ’n’ cool! Soooo my type!”
Aiz couldn’t look at her. It was too embarrassing.
“Don’ be makin’ that face. If Bete’s gettin’ to ya, I’ll have Mommy Mia to string ’im up outside!”
Loki must have misunderstood why Aiz had left the table in the first place.
Looking back inside, members of their party were holding the young animal man down while the elfess with whom he had argued earlier tied him up.
The elfess smiled as she stood over him, her foot pinning him to the floor.
“Hee-hee, Aizuu. Come on back.”
“……”
Loki wrapped her arm around Aiz’s shoulder and guided her inside. Aiz fought it long enough to look outside one last time.
Even with the magic stone lamps lighting the busy street, the boy was long gone.
Storm clouds hovered in the night sky; it could have rained at any moment.
Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!!!!
Bell was running. Tears flowed from his crooked eyes, falling to the ground behind him.
The events of the last hour were replaying in a loop in his mind.
He was so embarrassed, so humiliated, so ridiculed that he wanted to just disappear for the first time in his life.
Why am I so damn stupid?!?!
Each of that animal man’s words cut deeper every time he heard it.
Weak, feeble, trash, tiny, nauseating, pathetic, disgusting, little bitch…
The question burning in his mind wasn’t “What can I do to get close to her?”
It was “If I don’t do something, I don’t even have the right to stand next to her.”
That animal man’s words, and the laughing faces around him, awakened violent urges within Bell.
But he was angry at himself; his do-nothing-and-expect-the-best self.
This hurts… hurts…! HURTS!!!
It hurt to know that everything that guy said was absolutely true.
It hurt that he couldn’t respond, defend himself.
It hurt that he was nothing more than a funny-looking rock on the roadside to her.
It really hurt that he didn’t even have the right to talk to her.
“……… Eh?”
His ruby-red eyes looked up from the ground to take in the scene before him.
The entrance to the Dungeon was waiting for him beneath the white tower, door open.
He was going in, to prove them all wrong.
Holding back his tears, Bell ran flat out to the base of the tower.

NIGHT BEFORE AWAKENING
Heavy rain pounded the office window.
Eina looked up from her desk to take a look outside.
It’s really coming down…
Not too long ago, a golden moon lit up the sky. But now black storm clouds unleashed a deluge of water onto the city.
People still out on the street were dashing to the protection of eaves and awnings. Main Street emptied in the blink of an eye.
Eina put down the paperwork she had been working on and listened to the rain. Leaning back in her chair, she watched the rain cover the landscape.
“Eeeeh? First we get stuck with overtime, and now it’s raining cats and dogs! No luck at all…”
“… It came on pretty quickly. The rain should let up by the time we’re done here.”
One of Eina’s coworkers moaned about the rain as she stumbled up to her desk carrying a small mountain of files.
It was almost nine o’clock. Guild headquarters’ staff still lined the lobby windows and filled the office nearby, every one of them wrestling with overtime and paperwork. Eina’s human friend and coworker had had enough, despite all the bosses saying, “It’s the final stretch!” and looking all-important as they worked through their data.
“I know it’s almost time for the festival and all, but I wish the bosses would cut us some slack, you know? We aren’t all as productive as you!”
“Misha, don’t lean on me like that. You’re getting in the way!”
“Hee-hee. Wait a sec, Eina. Did you already put away the festival
