Denatus Day
Hello everyone it's time for a new chapter. Last chapter you fought a minotaur and things happened.
~~~~~
POV: You
It's the next day, I opened my eyes and I had a slight headache. I sat up to see that I was on Hestia's bed. I had no shirt on and only sleep pants. I hear someone walking down the steps before I see Hestia with a bag in her one of her hands.
"Hestia?"
Hestia turns to me and a smile forms on her face "(Y/n) your awake!" She shouts before dropping her bag and hopping into the bed and hugging me tightly "You make me so happy!!!"
"What did I do?" I question.
"You didn't just hit level 2, but you also did some something heroic in my name!!" She shouts then kisses me on the lips "I love you so much!!"
"Me doing something in your name makes you this happy?"
"You don't understand (Y/n). It's every gods dream to have someone in their familia do something heroic while doing it in there name. It's something the entirety of Oraroio can feel" Hestia says with joy.
"Then I'm glad I did it" I say and hugged Hestia back.
"Ohh, I almost forgot" Heston says before picking up the bag "I got us breakfest"
Hestia brings the bag to the bed and sits next to me. She opens up the bag and takes out 2 breakfest sandwiches. Me and Hestia ate the sandwiches which were delicious. After finishing it a wondered who made them.
"Hestia, where did you get those sandwiches?" I asked.
She got off the bed before replying "Your girlfriend from that tavern" she then sighs "At first I thought I was going to have you all to myself. But this is a harem story"
"Don't be so down Hestia. My love is spread out equally"
"I know you do" She says with a smile.
Heston then starts to take her clothes off. I cover my eyes as she does "What are you doing Hestia?" I question.
"I'm changing, today happens to be Denatus day" She tells me as I continued to cover my eyes.
"So what's that like?" I ask.
"It's a very important gathering of the gods. Today is the day we pick second names for those who leveled up, Including you" She tells me
I then fell Hestia's soft skin against my right arm as I had my hands over my eyes.
"You know (Y/n), you should indulge on the sight of a my naked body, almost no man gets to see a goddess' naked body" She tells me. I look between my fingers and I see Hestia in her formal dress "Tricked you... for now" She teases. She then takes out a price of paper and hands it to me "While you were sleeping I did a status update and you activated your sec- I mean first skill. It's called Argonaut, or heroic aspersions~"
"Why did you have to say it like that?" I asked.
"Because of you manifest this particular kind of skill, it means you still have yet to grow out of your big dream to become a fairy tale hero" She says then boops me on the nose.
"I'd rather think of myself as a hero already" I say.
"Well anyway, the important thing is that you now have a skill, so all you need to figure out is how it supposed to work and practice with it" Hestia tells me.
"Alright then, I'll see you later" I said.
"Later" Hestia says then leaves.
I get out of Hestia's bed before stretching. I walk over to my dresser and started to get changed some clothes to go out in. I put on a black shirt and a black pair of pants along with my boots. I put on my belt pouch just in case and put Hestia knife inside. As I was about to leave I see a crate next to Rai's box. I pet Rai a few times before turning my focus to the mysterious crate. I open the crate and I see my broken armor. On top of the armor was 2 glowing horns with a letter next to the horns. I open up the letter before reading it.
"Here's your armor, most of it is broken though. When you defeated that minotaur it dropped a horn, there's also the one you broke off as well. You did great doing the fight, I'm happy that you reached level 2. I'll see you when I get back"
Love Aiz
P.S: Also, Tiona says Hi
I smile to myself before setting the letter down. I pet Rai a bit more.
"I'll be back in a bit Rai" I say and he squeaks back.
I leave home and started heading into town. I was going to the pantheon so that I could talk to Eina. After about a bit of walking I arrived at the pantheon. I walk inside and there was only one adventurer inside. I see Eina at the counter with her hand holding her head up, she starred off into space while her cheeks were red.
"Eina?" I said while waving my hand in front of her face.
She freaks out a bit and jumps a bit "(Y-Y/n)!, why are you here!?" She questions as he cheeks grew even more red.
"I came here to talk to you" I replied while seeing how she was acting "Are you okay Eina?"
"Y-Yeah, your really fine. I-I mean I'm fine really" She stutters our.
"Okay then...I wanted to thank you" I say.
"For what?" She asks as she starts to go back to her usual self.
"For saving my arm"
"How did I do that?" She questions.
"Because you gave me green supporter. I got in a fight with minotaur that was carrying a sword. It blocked the sword before breaking" I tell Eina.
"You ran into another minotaur!" She says with worry.
"Yeah, the thing was like beefed up on steroids or something. But don't worry Eina, I killed it, And I also reached level 2 after beating the minotaur" I add.
"What!!, You reached level 2 in just a month and a half!!!" Eina shouts.
"No need to shout" I tell her.
"S-sorry, it's just that you beat the record for the fastest person to reach level 2" She states.
"So who held the record before me?" I ask her.
"The Sword Princess did, it took her a year to reach level 2"
"Aiz took a year to get to level 2, she really is something" I say.
"Aiz?, why do you say her name so casually?" She asks while looking my eyes.
"It's just that we became good friends after she helped me out when that minotaur attacked me a while ago" I tell Eina.
"I see, I thought there was something more happening between the both of you" She replies.
"I wish"
"That was a close one, the least amount of people who know about me and Aiz being together the better"
"(Y/n), since your level 2 now, I think you should start looking for a party" Eina tells me.
"I was think about that while on my way here, I think I'm going to wait a day or two. I need to get some new armor before going back into the dungeon"
"Okay then, be careful in there okay" She tells me.
"I will, see you later Eina"
I walk out of the pantheon and started to head home. After a short walk I reached home, I got inside and decided to do some cleaning.
{Time Skip}
It's been a few hours since I saw Eina at the pantheon, I'm still cleaning as I wait for Hestia to come back from her meeting. I was talking to Rai as I sweeper the floor. Yes I'm talking to a needle rabbit, but he's family too.
"What do you think the gods are going to give me as a nickname?" I ask him. Rai squeaks before nibbling on some lettuce I gave him "I don't think they're going to give a op sounding name right out of the gate. I'm only level 2" Rai squeaks a few times "That kind name is for a level 4 or level 5 adventurer"
My crate with the armor in it caught my eye and looked at it again "maybe I should get my next set of armor from Welf Crozo, the armor was light yet strong and durable. Exactly what I need"
I hear someone rushing down the stairs to the room and I see Hestia panting "(Y/n)!, Your going to be so happy!" She tells me
"So, what is it?" I ask.
"Your nickname is Rook, it suits you perfectly!" She tells me then grabs me before hugging me.
"Rook? Like the chess piece?" I question.
"Yup!" She says then let go of me "I'm going to go celebrate with some of the other gods and brag about you. I'll see you later (Y/n)!" Hestia then leaves the room.
"I can't tell whether she was more excited about celebrating with the other gods that I hit level 2 or to brag to the other gods that I hit level 2" I say to myself then Rai squeaks a few times "Yeah, I think its to brag as well"
Part 2.
It's night time and I was at the Hostess of Fertility with Lili. She sat across the table from me and we talked as we waited for our drinks.
"Rook? That's what they call you?" Lili questions.
"Yup, Hestia says it suits me perfectly" I replied as I leaned back in my chair "So what do you think of it?"
"I think it's pretty cool to be honest" Lili says.
"I like your nickname" I hear Syr say. I turn my head to the left and I see Syr and Ryuu holding drinks and a appetizer.
"Congratulations on ranking up. Great work" Ryuu says.
"So go right ahead and drink to your hearts content. Tonight's your night!" Syr says "Whoo"
"Whoo" Ryuu says without almost no emotion behind it.
I then see people looking at me and talking, didn't know what they were talking about though "Are those people talking about me?" I question.
"Yeah, That sorta stuff happens when adventurers get famous" Lili says as Syr and Ryuu put the drinks and food down.
Syr and Ryuu then sit down at our table before both of them grab a drink "You should just take it as a compliment okay, now bottoms up you guys" Syr says.
"I hope you didn't spike it" I say before taking a drink.
"Wait, aren't you two supposed to be working?@ Lili asks.
"Mama Mia said that you can feel free to order as much as you like, and she told us to sit with you. I think she wants you to spend more money" Ryuu says.
I look at Mama Mia and she gave me a wink, it was a 'go get'em' kind of wink.
"I don't think it's for the money" I say.
"I have a question, did I hear that you and Ms. Arde are going down to the middle floors of the dungeon sometime soon?" Ryuu says.
"Yeah, we will be playing it by ear for the most part" I state.
"Is that so, I just want to say that anything abelow 13 is too much" Ryuu says.
"Why is that Ryuu?" I ask.
"I'm saying that they are nothing like the upper floors. You will see more monsters there, and they will be stronger as well. I'm not saying that your not strong enough, I'm saying that you won't be able to do it alone. You must join a party first" Ryuu tells me.
"That was kinda my plan to do so, it's just hard to find people you can rely on to have your back" I say.
We hear some laughing before a big guy walks up to our table "having trouble making some friends? Are ya little fella?" The guy says "if you wanna join up with our party we got plenty of space for you on the team. We're a bunch of level 2s. We like to hit the middle floors" he pauses for a moment before continuing "On one condition, your going to have to bring these hot little bar-"
Before the guy could finishI reached over the table from where I was and grabbed the collar of his shirt before slamming his head against the table. He lifts his head of the table holding his nose before cracking it back into place.
"You better listen to me, and listen to me good buddy. These girls are not for personal entertainment, and I won't let you lay even a finger on them" I tell the guy as he held his nose.
His friends stood up and went by his side "You sure aren't someone to mess with, that was one hell of a slam" The guy says as if he was giving me a compliment. He then puts a coffer of valis on the table he was sitting at before walking out of the building with his friends.
I look around and almost everyone in the tavern was looking at me "Sorry for the ruckus everyone" I say before sitting down.
"See, your nickname fits you perfectly" Syr says.
"And what do you mean by that?" I question.
"She's saying that your an unstoppable and a force to be reckoned with. Nothing can stop you from your goal" Ryuu states.
"That makes sense, I guess" I say.
"Unstoppable, A force to be reckoned with, can't be stopped from reaching their goal. That's what it takes to be a hero......that's a absolute badass"
