Celebration

Within a few minutes Akira,Miko and lady Luna all arrived at the front of the gate of the mansion.

"It looks...amazing" Akira said in amazement.

"No kidding, this place is bigger then any other Crestania's home I've seen" Miko explained.

"Indeed, this took me a year to plan out for the god of Architecture to complete this creation."

"Let's go, everyone is waiting for you guys." Luna said and Akira opened the gate and everyone started to walk the front door.

As they made It to the front door Akira hesitated to open the door.

"Don't be worried child, I promise nothing will jump out at you." Luna said.

Akira had a worried expression on his face, but he opened the door within seconds and soon after a bunch of people out of nowhere yelled out "SURPRISE!" as they all popped out a party popper with confetti inside.

As tons of confetti rained down on Akira and Miko, they were in shock to see the surprise.

"Whoa, w-who are these guys? And miss Nisha?! What are you doing here?" Akira said shouting.

"Well, miss Nisha, the dwarf adventurer you saved and the people from the tavern decided to come celebrate your rank up and lord Hermes and Mako are here! Lady Freya as well." Luna explained.

"W-wait Lord Hermes,Mako and lady Freya are here??" Akira said.

"My my, what a beautiful young boy" Freya teased.

Akira's face turned red a little.

"Freya, please don't charm my child." Luna asked Freya.

"Please, I'd never charm another child from another Crestania. Al though...I would love to take him If you'd decide to leave him" Freya said.

"Tch, not in a million years lady Freya. Anyways let us begin the feast! Everyone please help yourself with anything you want!" Luna shouted as everyone else shouted in excitement to get the party started.

"This...was not what I was expecting" Akira said to Miko.

"Yea....me too." Miko added.

"W-who are these people lady Luna?!" Akira yelled "A-and miss Nisha?!".

Nisha waved with a smile at Akira.

"Well miss Nisha, the dwarf that you saved and the people at the tavern wanted to come celebrate your rank up today alongside the heroic actions you done, I even invited lord Hermes, Mako and lady Freya." Luna explained.

"Ahh, Akira! Long time no see old pal" Hermes said wrapping his left arm around Akira's neck.

Akira was frightened a little from his presence.

Luna had a expression of already regretting her godly friends over.

"Please don't be frightened of lord Hermes Akira, He's just very...playful? I guess." Luna said.

Seconds later Mako walked up to Akira and held out his right hand.

"Hey there Akira, I've heard a lot from lady Luna, It's nice to meet you" Mako said with a smile.

Akira put out his left hand and shook Mako's hand for a former greeting.

"Yea, indeed It Is." Akira said.

Within seconds everyone was split apart, either talking or eating together and laughing with each other.

Mean while Akira was sitting atop the stairs of the 2nd floor alone.

All of a sudden someone sat right next to him.

He looked over and noticed It was Neon, the girl who had saved him in the dungeons.

Akira started to get nervous with her presence around.

"N-Neon?! W-w-when di-did you get here?" Akira said stuttering every word he said.

"Relax, I got here a minute ago." Neon said.

Akira didn't know what to say to Neon as she is one of the people Akira likes.

"U-um, so what brings you here?" Akira asked.

"I just came here after hearing you ranked up, I just wanted to congratulate you. That's all." Neon explained.

"Also, I wanted to give this to you. It's a special dagger I made for you especially. After I saw you fought the monster with all your strength I notice your dagger starting to break. So I enhanced It making It very hard to break with a mystic stone called Obsidian." Neon explained as she showed him the deep black dagger.

"W-whoa..." Akira admired as he took the blade from Neon and examined It closely.

Neon looked up on the roof before looking back towards Akira.

"Be safe alright. I'm not always there to rescue you." Neon said as she started to stand up and walk off.

Before she could Akira grabbed her hand.

"Thank you Neon" Akira said with a bright smile "I'll become even stronger then you! Just you wait!".

Neon smiled "I look forward to It...Lightning Novice" she said.

After 5 hours later, the party had come to a stop and everyone said their good byes and left the Arcania mansion....
