Breakfast is the most important meal of a day.
Bell certainly agreed, as he gulped our food by the spoonful. He scowled at the fruits, but I knew better. Vitamins were also important.
Lisa examined her prey with an unsettling smile, likely reading his mind and memories for extra fun. I mean, why not?
Bell was exactly the toy of the Gods, and his dreams of picking up girls in the Dungeon were quite amazing.
"Hestia will take you to Babel and ask her special friend to make you a weapon. Two weapons in fact. A metal glove for your left hand and a dagger for your right. Also a potion belt, but that can be bought outright if they already have some in store. A few cantrips as well, Ember and Clean at least." I demanded while sipping my coffee.
Lisa just nodded and Hestia sighed. "Still no Falna?"
I shrugged. "Maybe tomorrow. He needs to run and find his limits as a human. Then we can compare his progress. And boost his Magic as well." I said in a milder voice.
"If you behave, I'll ask a few girls to play with you." Lisa offered to the new member.
"Really? Are they pretty?" Bell asked in a naive voice.
Lisa smiled mysteriously. "Keep Hestia safe while we dive into the Dungeon. She gets lost easily."
Bell glanced at the Goddess and blushed for some strange reason.
I was so glad I wasn't the Captain of this train-wreck of a Familia.
About 10 hours later, after fighting plenty of Bugbears, Battle Boars and Lizardmen, we were returning to the surface when the wall opened up and giant walked out, 7 meters tall and emanating the pressure of a Level 4. Lisa read my mind and began chanting before I equipped my adamantite shield and club.
Then I sent my Spirit Weapon flying for an easy kill, and the Chi blade bounced off the Monster Rex's neck. Damn it!
I had 38 Chi now, and was still not enough.
*Chi +3
I mentally added 3 free points to my game status while rushing forward to block the Monster with my shield. The shield shattered, my arm broke and my body flew a dozen meters in the air. And then the Goliath's head fell down just as Lisa calmly stabbed me in the head.
This story has been taken without authorization. Report any sightings.
It seems 41 Chi was just enough to pierce through a Level 4's defenses. Sure, it cost me a life to learn this, but I had more.
Lisa collected the Goliath Tooth and its crystal as I rose and shook my head. Getting stabbed in the head was new, but Lisa made my death fast at least.
"I get the next one in two weeks. Just need to figure out how to reach his head. It was too high." Lisa said in a casual voice, as we continued our run towards the exit.
"I need a new shield" I answered with a sad voice.
Damn stupid monsters. And they'll only get stronger.
"We'll stop on First Floor for 3 eggs." Lisa offered in a softer tone.
Before we reached the first floor though, we stopped on Floor 5 to pick up a lost child with bloody white hair.
Then as I was healing him, a Minotaur arrived, howling with his own paralyzing scream.
I could see Bell struggle to push through, and then attack with a clumsy dagger strike. His weapon bounced off, and then I caught the Minotaur by the neck. Moving while chanting was amazingly difficult, but I wasn't going to let a Familia member die under my eyes.
And then a flash of light and wind decapitated the bovine monster, and Aiz arrived at Level 5 speeds to clear up her mess. "Sorry, this one ran away from our group!"
Bell froze at her sight, likely mesmerized and in love at her awesome swords skills. Or her tiny boobs. Maybe both.
"It's fine, since I was here. But you will buy Bell a dinner and apologize. Frogs can't really compare with Minotaurs." I demanded from the Sword Princess.
"You are Bell? It was brave of you attacking a Minotaur. Wait for me at the exit, and I'll buy you dinner in...5 hours." Aiz promised with a halting voice, then vanished in ultraspeed.
"What the flying fuck?" Lisa reacted a bit too late.
"Boy likes girl. Girl likes boy. They go out to dinner. Simple?" I explained in short words.
"...She likes me?" Bell asked in bewilderment.
"Not yet. But she admired your bravery, standing up to a Minotaur. And since she is single and never dated someone, you get the best chance. I would ask her to train me if I were you, but I am not." I continued while walking slowly towards the exit.
Lisa frowned as she glanced between me and Bell. "Are you both idiots?" she asked to make sure.
"Probably." Bell and I answered in the same voice.
A bit later we reached the First Floor and Lisa killed 4 Jack Birds for us. 3 for my new shield, and another for Bell, since he was poor. I am not sure how Lisa managed to get the bird to drop at Bell's feet, but he was fast enough to kill it himself.
"That bird egg can make a great gift for a girl you like. They're quite rare, but as a Level 1 you won't ever find something nicer." I advised the new member.
Bell nodded seriously and stored the egg in his pouch.
Lisa glared at me for no reason, but I knew better. We left Bell at the exit to wait for his girl, while we ran home to punish Hestia for her foolish behavior.
I mean, I got a divine blowjob out of it, since Hestia was mortified to hear we found Bell on the fifth floor. Shouldn't have given Bell the Falna so soon, and especially not allow him in the Dungeon alone.
"I'll do anything" can mean pretty much anything I wanted, right?
Then I turned on my belly and Hestia updated my Falna.
"You killed the Goliath? In under 10 seconds?" she muttered in a surprised voice.
"Yeah, my first strike failed so I had to try again. Level 4 mobs are still a bit hard. Plus my shield broke." I admitted with a sad voice.
Hestia drew my head to her chest, and Lisa continued to ride me for her own pleasure.
"What a strange Familia I have." the Goddess mused in a low voice.
I agreed completely.
