After that, Xin spent more time with Marie, even giving her some powerful monster crystals from the 27th and 26th floors that he had saved for her to eat, perhaps making her stronger.
Then Xin returned to the floors above the Water Capital, stopping at Rivira to buy some basic supplies that were missing, and headed towards the surface. It took him two days to return from the thirty-sixth floor to the surface.
As soon as he took in Orario's sunlight that afternoon, he sighed with relief at being back and headed towards the Hostess of Fertility. Upon entering, the familiar aromas of delicious food mixed with the lively atmosphere of the place, but Xin noticed Hestia nervously pacing in a corner.
"Xin!!" She shouted immediately upon seeing him, with a hopeful glint in her eyes.
"What's with this nervous face... Did something happen?" Xin noticed the disturbance in Hestia and immediately asked.
"Come with me, right away!" She said, and they went to the floors above the bar.
As they entered the room, Bell was lying on a bed, injured, with Syr taking care of him. Xin could even see a flash of anger in the disguised goddess.
"What happened to him?!" Xin said immediately, a little surprised to see Asia in that state and no sign of other around.
"She was brought like this to the guild. They found him at the beginning of the intermediate floors and alone, with no sign of Irina and other..." Hestia spoke with concern.
"So, it was lucky she didn't end up dead... Who would do this? I can understand an attack, but killing? I don't think Apollo or Heimdall would do that... He doesn't have such vindictive motives," Xin murmured and looked at Hestia.
"Asia wouldn't..." Xin supposed with a bit of concern.
"No, only Asia was found lying on the ground. There was a fight, but no one seemed to have died..." Hestia spoke with a somber tone.
"Anyway, we can find out what happened with other. This is strange. I would know if they had died, but that's not the case..." Xin said and pointed his hand to one side of the room. He immediately summoned the ball of light.
"HEEE!" The ball of light made a strange sound at him as soon as he saw him.
"You were attacked; that I know. Tell me the rest!" Xin spoke.
"HEE!"
"Is this serious?" Xin asked with a stunned expression.
"What happened?" It was Freya/Syr who spoke before Hestia.
"What happened, Xin-Kun?" Hestia also asked.
"It seems they were Ikelos family, from what I understood from ball of light. They captured Asia while ball of light left behind. I can even understand, because they dont know the use of ball of light." Xin spoke calmly, surprising the two goddesses in the room.
"What, how do you know that?" Hestia asked.
"Well, I know about some dark things happening in the city, but anyway, ball of lightg, tell me what happened to Asia?" Xin turned his attention to his strange pet.
"HEEEEEE!"
"What, you bastards. Anyway, I know where she is."
"Is Asia okay?"
"I don't know if she's okay, but she's alive. The ones who captured her, according to ball of light's description, were from your Soma family."
"How did they get through the dungeon gate without anyone knowing?" Hestia questioned again.
