The Legends Of Creator Hero
Warmth of a family

Nightfall.

Tonight Priscilla is throwing a party to introduce a new army commander who will form his own army as well as the joining of other troops from the 16th floor.

Everyone had gathered together with a glass of wine in their hands. Everyone's faces turned red because of the Alcohol they drank and warmed their bodies this cold night.

Everyone can blend in quickly even the conquering army that just joined is already familiar with the other forces in just this one night.

Priscilla took the stage and everyone's attention was focused on her. People who initially focused only on their drinks, now pay close attention to Priscilla which proves how important the person who is going to talk is right now.

Everyone fell silent as they waited for what word the head of the Region guild would say.

"All right, thanks for taking a minute. I'm having this party to welcome all of you new Region warriors and welcome the man who just took over as our new commander, Rigel!"

Priscilla.

Everyone's attention was focused on me and they started cheering, even though there used to be a lot of people who seemed to hate me for slaughtering a lot of people downstairs, but now everyone's view changed when I learned the fact that I took down Arch Licht by myself.

Priscilla gave me a sign on stage. I hesitated at first but because everyone's attention was focused back on me, I awkwardly got on stage.

Everyone went back to silence waiting for what I would say next.

Shit, I was nervous about never speaking in front of so many people!

I don't even know what to say to them. However, as I watched them embrace each other without distinguishing their flaws and race, I could feel a certain warmth and subconsciously curled my lips in a smile.

"I'm not very good at stringing words and there's not much I want to say. However, seeing that we can embrace each other thanks to the Region guild. We are all people who have the same goal, no matter if it is human or any other race because what we want to achieve here is to conquer this hellish labyrinth for freedom.

I hope this warmth will go on forever, for the sake of freedom!"

Said Rigel while thrusting his glass toast.

"For freedom!"

Everyone in unison followed Rigel and toasted together. Rigel sipped his glass full of wine in one gulp.

"Bring me all the wine!!!"

Shouting Rigel.

"Oooo!"

Everyone cheered loudly.

Every drop of wine that Rigel downs makes his throat warm because of his alcohol content. This is a wine that has been fermented for a long time so that it contains alcoholic content in it.

I walked away from people and watched them from a distance with a smile. There were some of them started to vomit from drinking too much, I could also see Mirai who was drunk fighting Panco with Braund.

"I have to remember this is good."

Mumbles Rigel.

I almost forgot that this place is a place for souls who cannot enter heaven or hell. Various kinds of people gathered together and laughed together without distinguishing race whether it was for the sake of human, Elf or Dwarf.

"Didn't you want another minun?"

A cute sounding girl's voice came from a distance. I turned to see who it was and there, I found the loli of the Region's guild leader, Priscilla.

He carried a bottle of wine in his right hand and two glasses in his left hand while walking up to me and sitting beside me while pouring wine in both glasses. He handed me one of the glasses and I accepted it.

"Are you too young to drink alcohol?"

Rigel teased Priscilla a little.

"While I'm wearing a child like this, I'm older than you, you know?"

Reply Priscilla while chuckling.

"Wearing? Can I assume that you can change your form at will?"

Ask Rigel.

"Yes, I can change my form as I wish. Do you want to do that if I return to my original existence as a sexy and beautiful oneesan, even Anastasia has no equal."

Priscilla teased with a lewd smile.

"Even though men are lustful creatures, unfortunately I remain steadfast to protect my virginity so I must reject it."

Said Rigel while leaning his body against the tree.

"Then it's too bad. If you want, I'll do it with you. Even with that handsome face of yours, I'm sure every girl you meet will be interested in doing so."

Priscilla said while covering her lewd grin with her small hands.

My face flushed a little because of Priscilla's words.

"What kind of person do you think I am?!"

Snap Rigel.

Priscilla and I looked at each other and laughed after that. There was a brief silence between us as we stared at the drunken crowd.

"A moment I almost forgot that this is a place for the dead who can't go to heaven or hell."

Mumbles Rigel.

"You're right. They laugh together like old relatives don't see."

Reply Priscilla.

"May I ask? What is your goal in forming a Region guild?"

Rigel asked, still staring at the drunk people.

"Of course to get out of this place, because here you won't be able to meet the people you love whether it's heaven or hell."

Because basically, this place is specifically for people who have no place in heaven and hell. So, for a person who could enter one of them, they would never reach this place.

Although here a pretty beautiful place to live, but not a few people who think like that, for example is Dandan. He tried to absorb the soul cores of others to grow stronger as well as gather the soul cores to climb the floor.

There are rumors that if he reaches the 100th floor, he will come back to life and meet the people he loves. However, there are also people who are trying to start a new life in this place.

"While I told you to leave this place, my real desire is to create a place where everyone trapped here can have a place called home. A place where everyone smiled freely without thinking about differences, because that's what Region was created."

Priscilla.

I just quietly listened to the story and started to express my thoughts.

"It looks like your goal has been achieved. Although I didn't have any memories before I came here, but."

Rigel said, put a glass in his hand and touch where his heart is.

"However, on the one hand, my heart feels warm and full of longing for something, something that I seem to have wanted for a long time, like... Warmth of a family."

Said Rigel slowly.

Priscilla looked at me in silence as if surprised at something and her gaze looked a little sad. I didn't know he was sad because of me or because he remembered about his family who might still be alive in the world.

"Well, you can think of the Region guild as a family, I think so."

Priscilla.

"For now it is better to drink as much as possible!"

Further.

I just smiled and picked up the wine that Priscilla poured.

"For the family."

Priscilla, holding out her glass.

"To the family."

Ting!

The sound of a toast.

The cold night passed but was filled with the warmth of alcohol and also the warmth of a family.
