Yes... I'm in Danmachi...

Change of scenery, streets of Orario
Pov nobody
In the middle of the bustling streets of Orario could be seen a boy with short black hair as black as night (his hair returned to normal shortly after regaining control) , with blood red eyes staring at the incredibly long tower that seemed to break the heavens.

Only to turn around and move forward with unfocused eyes walking aimlessly, just trying not to stand still and get lost in the sea of feelings he felt....
Pov Alex
I didn't know what to feel, happiness..., sadness..., anger..., frustration..., fear....
I don't know how I got here, I don't know why I'm here, I don't know what I should do now, should I look for a way to go back or should I accept my fate and live here?
The more I thought, the more confused I felt, so I just stopped thinking, I looked around contemplating and seeing things I never thought I would see, people with long pointed ears, nature lovers, elves, small but sturdy people, drink lovers, dwarves, people with ears and tails of various kinds of animals, semi-humans, and .... Gods, I understand what they meant in the anime about her presence, as I can apparently see her, yes, her presence stands out like a sore thumb in the crowd, though I can see that each presence has a different kind of color.
Alex:'...I wonder what color the gods that appear in the series will be...'
Alex thought absentmindedly, then felt a cold sweat on his back and looked up, as if searching for someone's gaze, only to find nothing....
Alex:' what do I think, right now the one inhabiting the 50th floor must be Hera'.
although he didn't hate Freya, he still didn't want to get on her radar, because if in the series he was *patient* with Bell because he thought she could take him at any moment, imagine right now when she wasn't the most powerful family.
Alex knew he must have been 16 or 17 before canon, since the Hera and Zeus families were still in town, and Alfia didn't look any older than 15 or 16.
Alex: "What should I do?"
Alex, who was thinking about which way to go, inadvertently came to a dark alley, although the people in the alley found it strange that a 12-13 year old boy was walking in as if it was his house, they decided to ignore him since he didn't seem to have anything of value, and some member of the Astrea family might be nearby, Alex who was still walking looking at the ground suddenly stopped and his eyes seemed to glow for a second before he said something unconsciously....
Alex:"...I'm hungry..."
Alex tried to think of some way to get *food* quickly, for although he didn't feel he had little time left, he didn't have much left either, and not wanting to lose control again, he went with the goal of getting *food* and then he would figure out what to do.....

Change of scene, in some alley of Orario
1 hour later
Pov nobody
Inside an alley that had only one inhabitant, that would be Alex, who was currently having a *little* trouble....
Alex:'AHHHHH'
screamed an Alex in his mind, at the same time he was punching a sack of who knows what, with his one arm out of frustration, he hadn't managed to get a single drop of blood out, something that in itself was difficult, add to it that apparently the pair of adventurers he had fought earlier, had given a clear description of his appearance, which they drew and posted on the guild poster (all this he heard with his incredible sense of hearing), so he could no longer walk the streets freely as any adventurer could notice him if he looked hard enough.
There were also several rumors, which he honestly didn't care about, he only cared about one in particular that when he heard it he felt sweat all over his body....
????: "Did you hear? supposedly the monster that sucked all the blood out of the monsters on floor 4, was able to escape from Silent (Alfia's alias)."
Yes, the most heard rumor was this, "escaped from Silent", Alfia, one of the few level 7 adventurers , had escaped from a monster, which according to public the guild, had a power level barely comparable to a level 4 adventurer.
Something that surprised and deeply interested all the important families of Orario when they heard the rumor, which would be mainly the families Loki, Freya, Hephaestus (not as much as the others, but it never ceased to surprise him), Zeus, and even Alphia's own goddess, Hera, who could not help but ask Alphia directly, only to be even more surprised to find that just turning her head for a second and turning it back again a second later, to find not a single sign of the *boy*, nor how he had managed to escape, as the *boy* was missing one of his arms up to his shoulder and was wounded all over his body, as well as not feeling any magic either.
Zeus, who was also listening, since he couldn't stand the curiosity and came almost instantly after hearing the rumor, muttered in a low voice....
Zeuz:"...interesting..."
Hera, hearing her husband's murmur, thought of something in her mind, and without wasting time proposed it.
Hera: "why don't we have them scan floors 1 through 18, see if they can find him and bring him to see that *boy* who escaped Alfia's senses."
Alfia wrinkled one of her eyebrows at hearing her *beloved* goddess' comment, but said nothing as she was right, and left the room in silence.
Zeus, as if pleased with his wife's idea, laughed at the top of his lungs, causing a walking away Alphia to sigh in relief that he had decided to leave, as she hated loud noises and Zeus was practically a noise machine.
Back to the room where the pair of gods were standing.
Zeus: "AHAHAHAHAHAHAH, my dear Hera you are brilliant, although I was going to propose something similar too, you read my mind, I'll tell maxim to take care of it."
Hera didn't mind her husband's obvious arrogant comment, and ignored it as if she was used to it, after that they both went their separate ways to inform their captains of this change of plans.
Unbeknownst to them, Alex was being sought after by almost every major family in Orario, as Freya and Loki also didn't want to lose the interesting *monster* who could escape from a level 7 adventurer like Alfia.
