In the streets of Orario, a certain chariot of sorts was still making their way towards the Hathor familia home. A difficult task due to the sheer scale of the city wide festivities, yet still they continued pushing closer, when…
"Hmm? That's odd? What's Artemis doing?" The goddess inside the chariot wondered aloud. She stuck her head out of the window, and noticed it… she, along with the city, started going quiet.
It was a few seconds later when someone outside the carriage asked: "What is that?"
"That? It's probably just Origin Wolf trying out a new thing, you remember his moon over a year ago, right? Oh wow, it's been almost two years!"
"That is not made with mana." Aphrodite stated clearly, nearly causing the drunken mortals nearby to fall over from the sudden enticing voice. "That's… What is she thinking? That'll des…" Aphrodite was pulled back into the carriage quickly.
"Lady Aphrodite, don't go saying anything like that!"
"That's right, you'll cause a panic!"
"What, why not? That's the strongest Arrow in heaven, if it fires, there won't be a Gekai anymore."
…
Around the same time as Aphrodite noticed the arrow in the sky, a newly promoted level 2 and his party came running out of the dungeon. They were shouting, screaming, and fighting… a horde of monsters.
"HELP! MONSTER STAMPEDE!!!!!" They all shouted repeatedly, each asking for assistance.
Some of the adventurer party managed to get on the stair case, but not all of them, resulting in several being trapped in the bottom well area, fighting for their lives against monsters they hardly ever heard about, let alone fought against.
Ganesha familia's guards at the dungeon entrance blew their whistles, snapping many of the nearby adventurers out of their trance towards the sky. Far away in the Ganesha familia home, the whistle was heard by the familia, and the on duty emergency response teams mobilized immediately.
Three teams, each headed up by newly promoted level 7s, with 2 level 6s, and 2 level 5s. Their plan of attack was a half diamond formation. Where in with the smallest of adjustments the level 7 could move into the right position whenever needed, and from anywhere, while the 6s would prevent any issues, and 5s would work on crowd control.
Needless to say, but once the three teams arrived, there was nothing the three teams couldn't handle from floors 58 and above. If anything, this was a welcome moment for them.
"This is weird, do you think it has anything to do with that half moon in the sky?" One asked, tearing through monsters with ease.
"I dunno, probably? I do know there's no way that it's Origin Wolf's magic in the sky right now." Another mentioned, this time it had been a level 7.
"How can you tell? Maybe he's trying something new out?" one of the petrified level 2s who'd reported the initial hell, screeched out their question.
"Because if he really wanted to use his moon to do something, the monsters wouldn't have been buffed here, they would have disintegrated under his power." A level 6 spoke in between slicing monsters into dice.
"That, and, well… The crescent moon up there, it would be full." Another level 6 giggled as her volley of magic helplessly obliterated monsters.
"EHH?"
"Huh?"
"Such power…"
"Oh that? That's nothing, watch this." A level 7 smirked, and took a step forward. It was over, there wasn't a single threatening monster left alive, while the ones who were, became docile like pets. "See, that's how it's done."
"Uh… Right…"
"Oh, that's right, I forgot to mention something else. That moon in the sky is made of Arcanum. Not mana. Not even Origin Wolf can create his own arcanum, thus it isn't his doing. Though, I suspect he's going to do something about this very soon."
…
"Fels, tell the people's hero his assistance is required for this matter. Make sure he's careful about how to do it… I get the feeling he knows what I mean."
"As you wish lord Ouranos."
…
Hathor familia, still continued their party, with relative peace of mind. Though Shurry was now standing outside looking up at the arcanum arrow. Looking at it, he knew precisely what it was, and could even feel the source of it, he could get there at any time.
"I can prevent that from firing at any time, the only problem is if I can manage killing the monster at the same time, while saving Artemis?"
"If you used that Arcanum at any point during the fight, the dungeon would spawn something as nasty as that black dragon." Zeus said with a drunken chuckle, and a pat on the back. "Tell ya what, take Zald with ya, he can handle it, can't you?"
"I'm sure I can handle it now. I could use a good warm up after leveling up." Zald nodded.
"Then get your gear on. We're leaving-"
Fels appeared, interrupting Shurry. "Sir Origin Wolf, I have a request for you, from lord Ouranos."
"Oh? Ouranos still wants to order me around? He really has a huge ego if he can deal with the constant hits he's taking now. What does he want?"
"He wants you to solve the situation, carefully… he also mentioned that you would know what that means." Fels answered in a rather confused tone… indicating that he really had no idea.
Shurry sighed, and looked back up into the sky, narrowed his gaze, and then sighed again.
"Fine, it's not nearly as much as the first time, and it seems like it'll stay in sync with me far easier than Erebus' Arcanum did… I'll revive Artemis, and give the wastes who caused this situation a good slap." He said, then smiled feeling Zald appear again. "Ready Uncle Zald?"
"Yeah, let's go."
Zeus backed up, and Shurry transformed into a wolf the size of a small house, Zald jumped up landing on Shurry's back. And then… they leapt through the air, stepping on the moon light. They moved so fast, it wasn't but a single bound before they were out of sight.
"Damn he's fast. Now all there is to wait for, is enough people being strong enough to deal with the dragon's thunder. Once that happens, the third quest will finally be finished." Zeus spoke, lifting his voice to also speak through Hades' mouth in Tenkai.
