Bell after hours of running, reached the dungeon's gates, he was panting like crazy his whole face covered by Minotaur blood, yet Bell didn't seem to be sad nor scared he looked happier he couldn't wait therefore he ran to the guild where drops of Minotaur blood would trail behind him attracting all kinds of civilians, quietly chuckling at the boy.

"MS EINAA!!" Bell yelled with all his might.
"Bell what do yo- Oh my god Bell what happened to you?!" The half-Elf spoke
"Ahh this is nothing, I was chased by a Minotaur in the 5th level, ANYHOW Ms Eina can you tell me about the sword princess, Please!!" The boy begged for an agreement
"Alright Bell, just go clean yourself" the half-elf announced

*Later*

"I-I am back Ms Eina, can you please now tell me about the sword princess?" Bell once more inquired
"Alright, just come and sit down" the guild advisor offered, and Bell accepted
"So the sword princess, Her name is Aiz Wallenstein, I believe she is also in the Loki Familia, she is a level 5 an-" Bell cut-off the advisory
"I know all of those things, I-I want to k-know l-like about..." Bell was beet red trying to cover his face from the embarrassment
"O-oh so you want to know about Ms Aiz's romantic life." The half-elf observed
"Mhmm" the white-haired boy nodded, still covering himself with embarrassment
"Well, I do not think she has a boyfriend or anyone in interest" The advisor's words sparked some kind of hope in Bell's heart, "but to be honest Bell, I think you have zero to no chance with Ms Aiz, your levels are wide apart so I think you should better move on" the rest of words were dropped on Bell with the mightiest force,
"Oh, oh ok," Bell said disappointed, the rabbit looking boy reached went to the door of the guild "bye, Ms Eina." The red-eyed rabbit looking rather sad
"Bell, well if you could get stronger I think you could have a chance, girls want a strong man beside them to protect them, so try doing that!" And thus the half-elf sparked a fire in Bell's heart a sign of new hope
"Oh, thanks, Ms Eina!!! I love you!!" Bell yelled clueless to what he had actually said, quickly leaving the guild
"O-oh, I think I went too easy with him..." Eina was slightly red
"Oh, so that was the cute boy you were talking about. I can see why you took a liking to him." a subordinate of the half-elf smirked.
"Shut up, Misha!" The advisor covered her face.

*path to the twilight manor*

"If I want to get closer to Aiz Wallenstein I need to get much stronger, so I can stand beside her, so she can depend on me, and fulfil Gramps expectations" Bell chuckled at the last part as he thought.
Bell reached the twilight manor excited to get updated by his goddess, the moment he entered, Loki was in front of him.

"Why are ya here so early, aren't ya supposed to be in the dungeon?" The red-haired goddess queried the boy           
"W-well some weird thing happened to me while I was in the dungeon, a minotaur appeared in front of me in the fifth floor and started chasing me, I ran away until I hit a dead, and was about to be attacked but Ms Aiz Wallenstein came and saved me!" Bell shouted without taking in any breath
"A minotaur on the fifth floor? That's pretty weird don't ya think, they should only spawn in the seventeenth floor, good thing ya outran it" Loki seemed grateful in a way
"Alright, u-umm can you check my status lady Loki?" the red-eyed boy asked
"alrighty come to my room" The goddess declared.

They made their way to Loki's spacious room, Bell never took in the designs of the room the first time he had entered it, he was mesmerized about the fact that he was going to become an adventurer, the goddesses room was anything but ordinary, it had colourful paintings held all around it the wall was designed to look more like a royal room, it laminated a white colour with gold lining, her bed was of huge size, and the skeleton of it had carved structures that bell couldn't perceive.

"Alright, c' mere!" Loki patted the bed signalling Bell to lay down on it, he took off his shirt exposing his emblem to his goddess allowing her to pierce her finger and drop a single drop of blood on it. she gently placed the Falana on the emblem, and update his power.
