"Hahaha! You're interesting girl. It's been a while since I've seen a person who is able to maintain a good command in different types of weapons"

"I don't think it's that big of a deal"

Searching for and creating a weapon that suits me was a time-consuming task, as I was trying out all the weapons Tsubaki presented to me.

In all honesty I felt like a kid on a playground, although I was a little girl anyway.

Every weapon I tried I used the way I remember. Watching series of different platforms gave me a great imagination that gave me ideas about the weapons.

The sword was the one I liked the most, the dagger I used very well because I adapted to it these days, also the spear was a bit difficult because of my height and not finding good movements with these.

I tried a battle axe and couldn't use it the right way so it was discarded until I grew up properly and developed my strength.

I loved the big swords, but unfortunately they don't suit my style so Tsubaki told me not to create a weapon of that style until I am strong enough to use it properly.

In the end it was decided that they would create a sword that would fit my size and be useful to me.

I will use this one for the upper floors which are from the second floor to the twelfth floor, 1-12, and it will also serve me until it increases in level or is destroyed and becomes useless for future use.

I wanted an amazing sword, however Tsubaki explained to me why they couldn't do that.

I cannot use a high-level weapon in the second floors because it would eliminate the effort I make when eliminating the monsters causing that when I upgrade my stage the points I get will be very few compared to other times.

If I am given a high-level weapon then all the effort I make in the dungeon would disappear and that would not give me many status points.

I'm going to tell Loki about her lack of notice of having to update the status.

"Here we are, girl"

Gareth's voice caused me to look up and toward the building we had stopped at.

It was the Hostess of Fertility and now it was our time to enjoy after a hard work, Tsubaki was the one who worked because Gareth stood aside and explained some things.

I met Tsubaki's gaze and squinted at her looking for something.

Tsubaki was smiling at my mischievousness and Gareth was stroking his beard for some reason. He does that when he's thinking about something.

"Welcome nya! Oh! Riku nya!"

"Hello Anya. As you can see I'm here to enjoy my free time with some acquaintances"

"Acquaintance, brat?" "Hey!" "We're already friends so enough of your formalities"

Tsubaki interrupted me and grabbed me under her arm, sticking me to her bust and giving me a few blows on the head as a game. This woman is very strange, but I like her.

As I stood in my place with Tsubaki Gareth asked for a place and Anya led the way. Tsubaki let go of me and now I found myself looking around the place this time as a customer and not a worker.

We took a seat and I felt a little out of place. I used to work or work here from time to time so watching my companions serve me was strange. I was also coming with Gareth and Tsubaki who were acquaintances and good friends and I was here kind of feeling like an extra.

"What do you wish nya?"

"Two specials" Tsubaki replied "Also bring us your best drink, today we are going to enjoy the evening"

"Ohhh! I understand nya. What do you want Riku?"

"I want a... risotto and grape juice"

"Don't be a spoilsport brat, you'll drink with us!" Tsubaki reprimanded me causing me to startle in my place.

"Nyahaha! Got it nya! Change the juice to drink. Please wait for your order to arrive nya" Anya nodded and left the site.

I watched Anya walk away from our table and she sensed my stare because she turned and smiled goofily at me while sticking her tongue out. I laughed of course.

Remembering something I looked around and managed to see Ryuu with some trays in her hand. After walking for a while, it seems she made the mistake of looking too much at the trays and not the road so she ended up dropping the food by bumping into a customer.

I heard the screams, or rather everyone heard it, and Ryuu looked on in mortified admiration as she was harshly scolded.

When it was my turn I already had a little experience in my old life, but I had to practice with this body so I wouldn't make a mistake or fall down when it came time to deliver. The good thing was that Mama Mia was considerate of me and I didn't get too many things to turn in.

Sensing something I look at certain places and squint my eyes as I realize that there are two hooded people watching Ryuu at work. They are two women, one of them is a cat woman and the other a human.

If my data does not fail me or I am paranoid then the two of them are here for Ryuu and are getting information before they perform their actions.

Mama Mia taught us to always be attentive in the pub so we all always keep an eye on the customers and their actions. Unfortunately, for me I don't seem to know how to use those teachings in the dungeon and I always get caught by surprise.

"Tsubaki, Loki will kill me if she finds out that Riku got drunk on a drink"

"Hey!"

They ignored me.

"Pfff, what's the worst that could happen?" Tsubaki said.

Hearing Gareth and Tsubaki's voices about me I couldn't avoid a proud smile on my face.

Before I came here my resistance to alcohol was good. Occasionally I would have a glass of Tequila or Mezcal to kill time and getting drunk was abnormal for me.

It doesn't hurt to try another world's drink.

xxxxx

"What the hell are you looking at me?!"

"You've got guts brat. With only one glass you're drunk while I'm still enjoying the booze"

"Who's- *hic* drunk?!"

"Come on, back off now girl. You better stop d- Hey, that's my drink!"

"It was your drink. *hic* It belongs to me now"

The situation got out of control for Riku.

"What had you said Tsubaki?"

"... She only takes one jar"

"That jar was too much for a girl like her"

"Since when is she very outgoing?"

"Since she regained consciousness after being dizzy for a while" Gareth sighed "We'd better calm her down"

"You're rit- What are you doing brat?!"

"They're too big"

Fearlessly Riku squeezed Tsubaki's breasts while in a drunken state.

For her to get to that state she first had to have drunk enough to get drunk, but all of Riku's plans failed.

She smelled the drink and carefully took a sip. In her previous life alcohol was a normal thing, however, she did not drink to excess, it hurt more than one could enjoy.

So Riku forgot that her body was not very resistant to alcohol and one thing led to another with one drink.

By the time Gareth noticed Riku had left the table and when he found her she was making friends with many other people and was even chatting openly about life's problems.

Apparently a drunk girl could become your best company on a night like this while other people were also drinking.

"Why do you have them so big?"

"I what would know brat!" Tsubaki moved Riku's hands that were gripping her bust "If I could get rid of them I would! They're a pain in the head when I have to forge a weapon!"

"Hm"

Riku contemplated the breasts of Tsubaki who was laughing internally as she watched the girl who now let out all her behavior that had been mitigated.

Some time ago Tsubaki met a blonde girl who was desperately looking for a sword and Tsubaki refused to give it to her because she knew she would send the girl to die in the dungeon.

When Tsubaki saw Riku behind Gareth she thought she would be like the blonde, but all that disappeared when Tsubaki saw the girl's resolve.

Riku was willing to face the dangers and she would also make sure she knew everything necessary even if it took her a while to do it. It was as if the girl knew that the future was dangerous or uncertain and took every possible precaution.

For that reason, Tsubaki set out to show her and test if the girl was different from the others. She also wanted to prove who the girl was that Gareth was supporting.

If Tsubaki didn't know Riku for a while then she would be disappointed by her attitude in this bar.

"They are unnatural!"

"Tch. If you want them so badly I could give them to you!"

"Well" *Boing* "This is heaven"

"Gareth, this girl is bolder in that state"

"I wouldn't know, but it's better for Riku to act that way than to be aggressive to anyone around her"

"... You're right"

Tsubaki contemplated Riku lying on her chest with a smirk as she murmured how soft the bust was.

The girl was definitely a sight to behold when she was drunk and Gareth was not about to let this moment pass him by. To Riku's bad luck she would have to return to her headquarters where she and Gareth would be discovered.

The first thing Gareth would say would be that they only invited her for a drink, but she drank a whole pot at once and it was too late.

"Hey, Tsubaki"

"What's wrong girl?"

"When I grow up will I be like you?"

"...What are you saying?" Tsubaki was confused and with her one eye she looked at the girl who had stopped and now had a distant look.

"I am afraid... the dungeon is very dark and from time to time I have memories of a person with purple hair *hic* he was very beautiful..."

Tsubaki looked at Gareth questioningly, however, he looked serious and signaled her to continue to indulge her and listen to Riku without stopping her.

Carefully Tsubaki placed her hand on Riku's head and gently patted it causing the girl to let out an affable giggle.

"However, you know one thing *hic* I'm more afraid of the future. That I will be weak and remember my past and the- *hic* and these will hurt me"

Tsubaki blinked. She looked at Gareth and he whispered that the girl had a very bad case of amnesia and remembered almost nothing of her past and the people she lived with.

"That's why... I want to be strong. Very str- *hic* strong" Riku looked up at Tsubaki "You are strong"

"Of course, I am. The path of blacksmithing is not an easy one and my strength must show when I strike metal with my hammer" Tsubaki replied.

"Then I will become stronger than you. *hic* When you see me again my name will resound in Orario and eliminate- *hic* I will eliminate everyone who comes to destroy me"

Tsubaki hummed as she continued to pat Riku who now looked happier and a little more sober.

"Okay" Riku got up from Tsubaki's bust and looked at Gareth who raised an eyebrow "I want another drink"

"Brat, Loki is going to kill me. That you drank a jar took me by surprise and now you want more, of course not and don't look to Tsubaki to invite you of her"

"Umumumu" Riku grumbled instead and turned around looking for something to do.

They had been late at Tsubaki's workshop so the hour was already late at night and at the Hostess of Fertility at this hour only those who want to hang out with a drink or get drunk and forget about everything come.

When Riku drank she made friends with others because they found the scene funny and no one wants to fight in a quiet moment, of course there are exceptions, but fortunately there is no one like that around here.

"Ok- *hic* Okay, I'll go order one from Mama Mia"

"I'm rooting for you girl!" Tsubaki raised her jar receiving an almost pleading look from Gareth. The dwarf knew that nothing would happen to Riku, however, when he returned to Twilight Manor he doesn't want to hear a lecture from Riveria and Loki.

"Mama Mia!" Riku ran to the bar attracting the attention of the people who watched the girl with amusement.

"What do you want brat? Can't you see I'm working" Mia spoke harshly, almost as she always did every day.

"I want a jar" Riku placed an amount of valis on the bar "The dwarf won't let me drink because according to my God- *hic* Goddess is going to be upset"

"And you think I'm going to do it?" Mia raised an eyebrow "Your Goddess is probably going to come bother me about getting her little brat drunk"

"Bah, that woman is drunker than anyone in this place" laughter from the customers was heard "Besides it's be- *hic* better to learn from a very young age and avoid trouble in the future"

"Come on Mia, that girl has some nerve talking to you like that!"

"Yes, yes" another voice rang out "Look at her. She's ready to face you"

"Would you break that brat's heart?"

Mia looked around squinting using her presence as a former adventurer causing some people to lower their heads or turn away, but some still kept their amusement.

"So..." Mia placed both her hands on the bar and emitted a slight pressure that would intimidate people "You want me to give you a jar?"

"Yes"

"You work here and to allow my employees to drink is to ruin their time and that would result in losses"

"My job was temporarily suspended and now I just want to try drinking"

"You already drank one" Mia remarked making Riku shrug "Don't you remember my words?"

"Your word is the la- *hic* law, yes, I do" Riku raised her hand and pointed to Mia "I'll prove it because I can and I want to"

"Can you?" Mia spoke harshly and narrowed her eyes.

"Look over there" Riku pointed to the table of some customers who raised their drink with amusement "That proves I can drink now"

"Like I'm going to lea-"

Mia opened her eyes.

Her hand was empty and she couldn't find what she left on the bar.

Anger grew in her and she slowly turned her head and watched Riku take the jar she was preparing.

The girl oblivious to Mia's death stare continued to drink and the cheers of the crowd could be heard. Tsubaki laughed out loud and Gareth mumbled words about a sermon, however, inside his head he was proud for the girl.

"Brat"

*THUD*

The jar was left on the bar.

*Burp*

Riku patted her chest after burping and looked at Mia fearlessly.

"It was delicious"

The bar was silent.

Tsubaki was now not laughing and a shaky smile adorned her face and Gareth was now sweating a little as he looked at Riku.

The people around watching the girl fool Mia in a silly way and take something from her under her nose was a sign of respect.

It is said that in the Hostess of Fertility there are no problems because the owner stops all of them with or without violence. She is also very possessive of her things and does not allow anyone to cheat her or steal anything of her property, her daughters come into it.

"Do you know what you've done?"

"Take a jar that I pay for with my money and enjoy it" Riku replied fearlessly.

Mia looked emotionlessly at the girl and the surrounding people shuddered, but Riku didn't even flinch.

The seconds passed and the unimaginable happened.

"FUHAHAHAHAHAHA!"

Mama Mia began to laugh as she put her hand to her forehead.

People blinked in confusion and looked at each other because they expected Mia to scold the girl harshly or throw her out of the place.

"You know brat, sometimes I forget that you learn from others" Mia smiled and Riku blinked "That assertiveness you learned from me, but you didn't know how to use it and alcohol allowed you to confront me"

"Alcohol doesn't hi- *hic* It's okay, I can thanks to that"

"Okay. You listen up!" the people straightened up in their place "Everything you saw here stays here! I picked this girl up and she learned from me! No one give her anything to drink without my permission! Some will remember her for delivering their food to them so treat her right!"

"Yes!"

""WHOOOOOOOO!""

When Riku raised her hand in victory mode the people cheered and went about their business with now amusement among themselves.

"Oi, Elgarm" Mia called to Gareth and the dwarf looked at her "It's time to take the girl"

"I know Mia" the dwarf got up and Tsubaki followed him "By the way, where is she? She was here a moment ago"

"Over there" Mia pointed to a table and Tsubaki laughed again while Gareth patted his face.

Riku was playing a game of strength with an adventurer and it can only be said that she was red from the force she was exerting while the opponent was grinning loosely from his drunken state.

"Come on brat" Gareth lifted Riku by the collar of her shirt ignoring the girl who was screaming about child abuse and to let her go so she could finish beating that adventurer.

Tsubaki left a bag of money on the bar and said goodbye to Mia who only nodded and replied to keep the girl away from alcohol so she wouldn't go crazy.

Gareth said goodbye to Tsubaki and Riku waved her hand saying that her bust was the best she had felt so far causing the blacksmith to start laughing as she walked away.

Now Gareth had on his back a little girl who was humming songs unknown to the dwarf. Gareth sighed and hoped that things would go smoothly.

Riveria was not taking things easy.

She as a Familia executive takes her work with all members seriously. Now one of her top priorities was to guide the little girl that Loki recently brought into the Familia.

Riku was very sensible to the point that she surprised Riveria, but from one moment to the next the girl could become reckless.

In the dungeon Riku was another story, it was as if her personality changed to focus on the adventure and she put aside her problems to concentrate on her enemy.

Riveria and Loki talked to Bete about Riku and how the werewolf watched her in the dungeon. Most of the words were insulting, however, Bete stated that the girl was a quick learner and looked for ways to kill monsters by abandoning anything that got in her way.

The classes that Riveria was giving Riku were going on wonderfully and the little girl was gradually understanding more about magic and its dangers, so she would soon be able to use her magic in the dungeon.

Walking through the corridors Riveria met Loki who excitedly approached her trying to do her usual thing, but a blow to the head is enough to calm the Goddess down.

During the walk they talked a little and then the subject of Riku and why they had not arrived. The Deity explained that Gareth took Riku to create a new weapon, however, Riveria remarked that it was not possible to take more than midnight.

Before they could continue arguing they heard a singing voice approaching their place.

When they looked around the corner of the hallway they saw Gareth with someone on his back and their faces went blank.

"¡Y los muertos aquí la pasamos muy bien!"

"¡Entre floreeeees de coloreeees!"

"¡Y los viernes y tal, si en la fosa no hay plan!"

"¡Nos vestimoooos y salimoooos!"

"Nanananana"

The noble elf and the trickster Goddess witnessed Riku singing while Gareth stood with an impassive face at the girl's attitude.

Loki covered her mouth to keep from laughing out loud and Riveria placed her hand on her forehead trying to soothe the headache she was starting to get.

"Hey shorty, *hic* sing with me"

" I don't know about what you're singing about so I'd better keep quiet"

"Don't be a spoilsport! Have you ever heard of improvising?"

"Yes, however, can you do that?"

"... No"

"Hm, then don't ask me about it. It's time for you to rest"

"Umumumu, it's still ear- Look at that!"

Riku exclaimed with elation looking in a specific direction and Gareth did the same causing him to tense up a bit instead.

Riveria looked at Riku who was watching her carefully while nodding several times. The girl jumped off Gareth's back and ran to Riveria.

"Look at nothing else we have here" Riku appreciated Riveria "You don't see this figure every day"

"Right?" Loki joined Riku "She doesn't accept my compliments and always walks around serious. She doesn't know the word rest either"

"Hm" Riku turned and looked at Loki "A man?"

"Ugh! What the hell are those words?!" Loki spat in annoyance.

"You!" Riku pointed at her "Your chest is flatter than the plains and your clothes are very strange!"

"Haaa?! This is the cloth of the Gods! And what about my chest?! I'm a beautiful woman!"

"Until you prove to me otherwise you are a man" Riku shuddered "You don't know what a man can do with makeup and women's clothes"

"What?"

Riveria had enough.

"What's wrong with you Riku?" the elf looked at the girl for a few moments and opened her eyes as she looked at Riku's red cheeks "Are you... drunk?"

"What truck? *hic* I didn't get hit by any truck"

"I don't know what a truck is and answer me truthfully" Riveria spoke to Riku sternly "Did you drink alcohol?"

"Sheisss, calm down woman. First of all, leave Gareth out of this" Riku pointed at the dwarf "I asked for juice, but... *hic* the beer was whispering for me to drink it" she touched her chest painfully "Unfortunately ca- *hic* I gave in to temptation"

"I understand you child, I understand you" Loki patted Riku's back in understanding.

"You..." Riveria growled causing Loki to hide behind Gareth, but Riku stayed in place "You will tell me everything that happened"

"Nothing happened" Riku looked at Riveria with a smile "You know something, if I were a man and also ol- *hic* older I would try to go for you. Conquering you would be a difficult but not impossible goal"

"Pfff!" Loki snorted with amusement and Gareth grinned.

Riveria just looked at Riku who was still acting silly and decided to play along.

"Even if you were male and somewhat older still our age would be too different for that to happen"

"The more wrinkled the raisin is, the sweeter the fruit is"

"Hahahahahahaha!" Loki couldn't take it anymore and fell to the ground laughing while Riveria went blank not knowing what to answer.

" The girl's got you there" Gareth pointed and walked over to Riku who was still humming words. The dwarf lightly tapped Riku's neck and knocked her out, carefully Gareth held her and slung her over his shoulder.

"Leave her in her room and you'd better get back to talk Gareth"

"I understand elf" the dwarf nodded "I have some information about Riku"

"...Is it about her past?" Riveria asked and Gareth just nodded.

"Let's get a move on, Mama" Riveria growled at Loki who now was not intimidated by that "Tomorrow Riku has many things to tell us, but first we need to know what it is we need to talk about"

"Hm"

Riveria said nothing and walked behind Loki.

The night was over.

xxxxx

"So, what did Riku say?"

"Hm" Gareth rests in his seat "She apparently has been having dreams, I don't know if they are nightmares or just dreams, but it has triggered a fear in Riku"

"Probably, this will also affect her falna" Riveria looked at Loki "Her magic is already strange and remember that the falna sometimes responds to a mortal's wishes"

"Skills are a sign of these desires or also a necessity for a person to grow in the field they are focused on" Riveria looked at Gareth "Anything else about her?"

"She becomes more open with when she's not in her five senses and I think about the possibility of her telling us about her fears or some event in her life before she came to the Familia in that way"

"I may like to drink and joke about it, however, getting a girl drunk constantly is off limits to me so until she gets older we won't take that option"

Riveria nodded at Loki's words, if the Goddess had said otherwise Riveria would probably scold her to no end for her recklessness.

"How did the girl do with Tsubaki?" Riveria asked.

"Hm" the dwarf reflected "Tsubaki was fascinated by Riku's talent. She learned very quickly the use of some weapons, but others did not fare so well because Riku found it difficult to use them"

"Taking all that into account it's best to wait until tomorrow" after listening for a bit Finn spoke causing the people, and Deity, to fall silent "Loki, has she asked for an update?"

"..."

"I can take your silence the way you forgot to tell the girl she was supposed to, right?"

Loki nodded with embarrassment.

Finn sighed and leaned back in his seat "The course of things have been fine. I guess tomorrow she'll be bothering Loki with her status" Gareth hummed in response "Riveria, when can Riku use her magic?"

"Depending on the status points she gets then will define whether or not she will be able to use her magic potential, as well as her battle experience" Riveria replied.

"The girl will definitely get a big boost in endurance" Gareth spoke "With her demonstration in the dungeon I wouldn't expect a special boost for her"

"What did she do now?" Riveria asked expecting an unexpected event as usual.

"The girl broke her gun and started bare-knuckle fighting with a group of Goblins"

Riveria sighed heavily and shook her head, pushing away thoughts of Riku's behavior.

"Loki I hope you will welcome Riku tomorrow when she wakes up. When she found out about the status update she got a little mad at you"

"Mah, I guess I will" Loki muttered sheepishly.

Riveria smiled, at least things were good.

xxxxx

Every time the next day starts I always wonder if it's okay to keep on sleeping without giving importance to the things I have to do during the day.

My head hurts a little, but it's a mild ache that I can overlook and go about my business.

However...

Memories of the softness of Tsubaki's breasts, challenging Mama Mia, trying to flirt with Riveria, telling Loki she's a man, singing all the way and saying that alcohol spoke to me to keep me drinking is something.

"..."

I sat on my bed thinking about what had happened and could only do the only thing I could do at that moment.

" DAMN IT!"

"What the fuck was I thinking with drinking a jar didn't do anything to me! It's another world of course alcohol would be different!"

I thought I would resist, however, I completely forgot that this is another body and I am still very young so my resistance would be lousy and I would give in to the drink.

I drank from time to time in my life, however, I never drank to the point of blacking out from drinking too much alcohol, I was responsible, but now I was long gone.

"Well, though touching Tsubaki's chest was something worth being embarrassed about" I muttered.

I will keep that feeling in my memory for the future. Honestly, a woman's body is different and I still reflect on how I will satisfy that need that some people have from time to time.

Touching myself would be an experience that I could go crazy with the sensation, yet I think I have to grow up a little more if I want to do that.

I still feel very young.

Shaking my head, I get up from my bed and check that I am still wearing the same clothes so I undress and go to enjoy a bath.

In all honesty taking a bath had never been so pleasurable for me until I enjoyed one with this body, I can say that likes and dislikes could change so I wasn't worried.

Dressed in my adventurer's clothes, I resolutely leave my room on my way to Loki's room. That woman owes me some explanations.

Along the way I took care to avoid the Familia members because I didn't know if they saw or heard me when I was not in my five senses I didn't want to be embarrassed before my time.

I came in and took a deep breath to calm down.

*Toc*

*Toc*

*Toc*

"Go ahead"

With the go-ahead I opened the door and looked at Loki who was sitting on her bed with a status sheet in her hand.

It was my status sheet.

"I guess you're coming to ask why I didn't tell you about updating your status?"

"Yes"

"I thought I told you about it before"

"I don't know if you already told me or I may have already forgotten that information"

"Good" Loki nodded and thought for a few seconds "Then take a seat and show me your back"

Things are about to change.
