The Adventures of Rose Hood

After Erica entered my world illegally, I led her to Selethon’s gate, but we had a little complaining.

“Man, why is there no signal.”

“I don’t know, maybe it’s because WE ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE MULTIVERSE!!!”

“… Jeez, it was only a question.”

“Lady Rose?”

The gate guard saw me.

“Yo, how are you?”

“You found your way back!!! We were all worried… who are they?”

“People like Amy.”

“Oh, I see. Well, welcome back.”

He opened the gate and I saw Dallel getting pelted with orange peels.

“AHH WHAT DID I EVEN DO?!”

“YOU KILLED ROSE!!!”

“WHAT KIND OF NONSENSE IS THAT?!”

Jalad threw a peel.

“WHY ARE YOU THROWING PEELS?!!”

“Because it’s funny.”

“Goodness, I leave for one week and everything devolves into chaos.”

…

“ROSE!!!”

Dallel ran behind me.

“Protect me from the mob.”

“What did you do?”

“They are accusing me of killing you.”

“… That’s stupid.”

“I know.”

Kala walked out.

“Can you people sto-“

She saw Amanda and froze.

“Rose? Mind explaining what this is?”

“I was teleported to Earth and Gabriel helped me get back. She came with me, and so did this idiot after we told her she couldn’t.”

“Hey, I’m not an idiot!”

“You disobeyed the word of an adult, a million-year-old entity, and a literal archangel… that’s the practice of idiots.”

She blushed before muttering.

“I wanted to go, though.”

Kala sighed.

“Alright, Rose, can you understand why I’m kinda in shock here.”

“Yup, but Gabriel okayed it, so what was I supposed to do?”

“No matter, could we please remerge.”

“Of course, knowing you, you probably haven’t even stretched in a while.”

Celios walked up.

“Yes, Kala has had her butt stuck on the couch eating food that she used her creation skill to make. When asked to do something, she threw it at Dallel.”

“Poor Dallel.”

I reached out to my body and my form began to crumble.

“What’s happening to Rose?!”

“She’s reentering her body.”

I got Kala to sleep and sighed.

“She hasn’t worked out my body in the slightest.”

“She has not.”

“Gosh dang it! Anyways, Amanda, Amy should be in the guild hall, and Erica, find some way to be useful please.”

“Okay, I’ll guard Ms. Amanda.”

“You’d die if a common attacked her.”

“Uh…”

Erica moped after Amanda who had gotten directions and already started heading to the hall.

‘Are you good with telling her?’

‘I don’t see why not at this point.’

“By the way Rose, since when did your Purity form have dragon wings.”

“I somehow evolved my soul.”

“That’s possible?”

“Apparently. Gabriel was equally shocked.”

“Wow.”

“Anyways, I’m going to do some exercises, have a good little bit.”

I jogged away and heard Dallel sigh.

“I don’t think she’ll ever change.”

Amy POV

I was talking to Aussie when I heard the guild hall open.

“Excuse me, I’m looking Amy Faust.”

“Ah, what’s your name?”

I recognized the voice, but I couldn't believe it.

“Amanda Connington.”

“Amanda?”

“Amy?”

We ran and hugged.

“How did you get here?”

“I came with someone named Rose Hood.”

“She’s back? Wait, that means she was on Earth!”

“Yeah, she held back a strong person who wanted to kill everyone in New York, and I wanted to help her as payment.”

“You always were like that, but there’s something cooler about her, but I’ll let her decide whether or not to tell you.”

“A strong person fought Rose? Is de poor lad alive?”

Mammon walked over.

“Um, she was actually losing for most of it.”

That surprised all of us, but Mammon didn’t care.

“Goodness, that girl keeps dragon us all down. Hehe.”

He walked away laughing, and we just looked in the direction he went.

“That was potentially the worst joke I’ve ever heard.”

“You should have heard the jokes when he first learnt that she was a dragon.”

I grimaced.

“Please don’t make me imagine that.”

“The annoying part was that we didn’t know she was a dragon at the time, so we knew they were bad jokes and that Rose understood them, but we didn’t realize how bad they were until later.”

“Poor Rose, having to suffer alone.”

“Indeed.”

I then noticed a kid.

“What’s with the kid?”

“Excuse me, I’m 13, thank you very much.”

“She did a dive through a closing portal and nearly got cut in half.”

“Did anyone let her?”

“Nope, she just did it.”

“Great…”

We all looked at the kid.

…

“Not it on training her.”

Aussie walked out before anyone could stop him.

But I could.

I grabbed his wing as he was about to take off.

“You know what? I think that the god of beasts would be perfect to teach these people how to fight.”

“No thank you.”

“Nah, I’ll even help you.”

He looked over and I smiled.

“In more ways than one.”

He flushed and Amanda looked at me in shock.

The kid was just confused.

“So, is he training me or not?”

“I think he is, kiddo.”

“Cool.”

“I could spare some time.”

“Simp.”

“What was that?”

Aussie looked directly at Silas who had a smirk on his face.

Amanda was still looking in shock.

“How d- I- what?”

“What?”

“What happened to the nervous innocent Amy?”

“I got tough.”

“Okay.”

Amanda was still in shock, then Rose jogged in.

“Hey Silas.”

“Hello, Rose, the usual?”

“Yes please.”

“What’s her usual?”

“A meat platter and a bottle of wine.”

“She drinks?”

“In moderation yes, in fact I’ve never seen her drunk.”

Rose who heard us snorted.

“It may not look like it, but my insides are still all dragon sized, and you’ve seen how big I am Amy. I’d need to dry out the whole NYC of alcohol to get tipsy.”

“That would be a lot.”

“Yeah, according to her science class she’s about a 10th of the cities size.”

The girl spoke.

“She’s that big?!”

Amanda looked at the small catkin drinking wine in shock.

Then Rose said something more shocking.

“Actually, since I evolved my very soul, I may be even bigger than that.’

“You evolved your soul?! That’s possible?”

“Apparently, my Purity form now has dragon wings.”

“Woah, so you are so much stronger.”

“Yep.”

“By the way, did you talk to Luma yet?”

“Yep, and I had about 100 unread notifications that she spammed in my ears.”

“Poor Rose.”

“Who’s Luma?”

“The system. Earth is actually independent from it.”

“That’s cool.”

“Welp, I should finish this before it gets cold, then finish exercising off the fat that Kala built up.”

I hadn’t noticed until this point, but Rose’s body had indeed gained a slight bit of pudge.

“Even with a week of laziness that can happen?”

“Yep.”

Then she finished her wine and meat and jogged out.
