"He was so pathetic!" he chortled out.
The other tables laughed, and Godou found himself holding his knife tighter than usual.
"Trash should just stay trash!"
Another round of laughter.
"Don't worry," May said gently next to him. "Mama Mia always stops people from going too far. Plus, she's on good terms with the goddess Loki herself, so there shouldn't be any trouble."
Her words consoled him slightly, but Godou found himself peering through the window that showed the main area when he heard the sound of a chair crashing.
"Oh? Aren't you that Tomato Loser? Trying to run away again?"
There was a white-haired boy lying on the ground before the Loki table. He looked skinny and weak, and Godou recognized him as Bell Cranel, a new adventurer that Syr loved to talk about.
The werewolf was walking up to him, and Bell was struggling to get to his feet. Even from afar, Godou could see the tears streaming down his cheek.
"Are you crying? Get a load of this, Aiz! He's just a big baby!"
Godou felt conflicted. He didn't want to get involved. He'd made a pledge, hadn't he? To not get into any trouble in this world. To stay away from Gods and adventurers and all that nonsense and to live a life as a ordinary human.
With a single hand, the werewolf lifted Bell by his collar. "You didn't thank Aiz just now, brat."
"Bete," Aiz stood up, her voice holding as much steel as her blade. "Stop this at once."
"Tch." Bete let Bell go, and the boy crumpled to the floor. Godou felt relieved, glad that nobody else had to interfere. Aiz walked up to Bell, but suddenly stopped.
Fascinating, Godou never realized that Aiz's eyes were just as gold as her hair.
Uh oh.
"Kusanagi Godou," she said softly, ignoring Bell even as he got up and ran out the door.
This was bad.
"Eh?" Sitting at the bar, Loki turned around to face him. Her eyes widened briefly and she jabbed a finger at him. "You!"
This was very bad.
Untying his apron and throwing it to the side, Godou quickly leaped over the counter and bashed through the window.
"Who ever catches him gets a Grimoire from me!" he heard Loki declare on his way out.
Grimoires were precious in his old world, and Godou suspected that it was the same here when excited roars followed Loki's words.
He considered activating one of his many Authorities to escape, but the last thing he wanted to do was get any more attention. He trusted that his normal Campione speed and endurance would be more than enough, and he sprinted down the street, dodging the traffic of adventurers returning from the Dungeon with skilled ease.
Somehow or the other, he found himself running next to Bell Cranel.
"Yo, Bell."
The white-haired boy jerked in surprise that someone was suddenly running alongside him. "Who are you? Why are you running with me?"
"I'm Godou, the chef from the Hostess. Let's just say we've both got beef with the Loki Familia for now."
"Um..." Bell clearly didn't know how to respond to what he said. "So you saw everything?" He seemed quite embarrassed. The tear stains on his cheek were still in the process of drying.
"Yeah. That Bete guy reminds me of a few people I didn't like very much." Like Count Voban. Like the many Heretic Gods who looked down on humans and saw them only as collateral damage. "I really wanted to punch him in the face."
Bell's eyes widened in alarm. "You can't do that! He's a Level Six!"
"Five, Six, Seven, what's the difference?" Godou said lazily. "It's just a number."
"You're clearly not an adventure, are you." The boy sounded quite defeated.
He shook his head. "I can't really call myse
lf one, so no, I'm not. By the way, where exactly are we running?"
