Wearing clothes that consisted of black pants with a black belt that had a large silver buckle, a black V-necked shirt that was worn underneath a black trench-coat with gray lining going down the sleeves, and black boots with silver plates to protect his shins. He has a silver plate worn on the left side of his coat, and a pair of black fingerless gloves.
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
He is running because behind him is a giant creature like 6 to 10 meters tall chasing him with the head of a bull and the legs of a bull and the body of a human… this creature is known a Minotaur
"Why does crazy things happen to me "
He ask himself as he tries to run far away from him but the beast did not stood behind he follow him at full force.
"If only I can use my magic "
He curse as he kept on run and move to his right only to find a dead and.
"Crap "he looks behind him and see the Minotaur getting close to him "maybe my magic is seal but this is not the first time I fought one of this "he made a fist and move to attack the beast when suddenly (stab) a sword pierce to the beast chest and kept on moving toward his head "What the "
He stop in the right time since his face is few centimeters form getting hit in the head.
"That was close "but it did not stop the sword move back only to stab the beast again but this time it was going to hit him but his reflex kick in and he move back but he crash with that wall and fell on the floor with the minotaur fall on top of him.
"What is going on "he ask and once again the sword appear once again near his face.
Then the Minotaur got split on two and all the blood got send to his face.
"Are you ok "then from a shining lite he sees a very beautiful woman with long blonde hair, golden eyes, and a slender body With knight-like outfit consisting of a metal headband while wearing a blue backless outfit and metal leg plate.
He only stood there for a moment until he "AAAAAAAHHH" he run away from her leaving her stunned.

"Hi Eina "
Time skip
"You head straight to the 5th floor alone…(sight) listen Kasai-kun go take a shower and we'll talk " after he took a shower and got clean he and Eina sat in a nearby sofa and talk "Look to come here looking like that is weird and wrong"
"I know "he replay as he just let his head fall back and rest in the sofa.
"How you ended up like that "she ask as a little shadow covers her eyes.
"Well "he explain what happen.
"You climbed down to the fifth floor….and you were chase by a Minotaur…and you were rescue by the [sword princes] Aiz Wallenstein "she repeat each part she got the most with a little twitching her eyebrow. "Look a single player always avoids to go alone in the lowers floors remember I tool you over and over but I don't know why won't you listens. "She said it to him
"Sorry is just I tough it wouldn't hurt to gain more money form high creatures although I never expected to be that dangerous "
"Well minotaur's are on the 17th floor so I don't know why one was there "
"Like I say expect the unexpected "he said it with a smile "anyway what's up with this sword princes name "he ask
"Oh yeah you been here only two weeks "he goes to a desk and bring a piece of paper with the image of the girl who safe him "Aiz Wallenstein… a sword woman who carries the central burden of the [Loki] familiar, her skill with the sword-fighting are undoubtedly top class among the adventure. She beat a whole army of level 5 monster by herself and earn the name of [war princes] which was the original name before the [sword princes] and anyone who approaches her with indecent desires is ether honorably perished or crushed in disgrace, she recently broke a record of failed courtship "
"She's sure is pure for someone who almost killed me "that surprise Eina.
"What you mean " Eina made a "what" face as she listen to the story. "Well that is something"
"Anyway I'll be going "he got up and change the rocks he gain in the dungeon but he heard Eina calling him
"Woman are attracted to strong and reliable men, no less so as long as you don't give up and work hard you may have a chance with her. "She said it with a wink. Making him sweat a little. "Oh yeah I forget to tell you I would also like you to tell me with country are you form since I need it to add to your information.
"Thanks I guess and Ishgar is the country I'm from" as he mention that country out loud every one became shock and whisper began to spread "good bye Eina love you "
He left leaving the girl in blush but soon stop when she hear the whisper.
"Hey isn't that the place where that war just ended "
"Yeah I heard pretty nasty things about that "
"Yeah some people say it became a blood shell "
Eina walk to her desk and print the name of the country.
"Kasai-kun "
Kasai wall through the streets and found a part of the city where all the building are all broken then he walk to an old church and open a secret door and walk down the stair.
"I'm home hestia "
As he call that name he was tackle by a beautiful petite woman whose appearance can be considered to between a little girl and a female teen. She has roundish blue eyes and black hair going down to her hips in a twin tail fashion with a single ribbon in each tail. Her Attire is a white one-piece dress with blue ribbons on her collar and one just below the chest that goes around her arms, and a pair of white gloves.
"Hey kasai-kun how was your day "
"Well I almost got killed by a minotaur "
Suddenly the girl began to check every part of his body.
"You're not hurt "
"No remember that I promise I would not let you alone "
Then she ask him to sit and eat with him." How did you buy them "he ask as he points at a plate full of croquette.
"In the part time job I just enter many costumers recently are coming all the time so they give me at as reward "they sit and began to eat and he began to explain what happen today.
"So any luck "he ask something that made her look down sadly
"No I haven't found any one willing to join my [Familia] because my name isn't well known "
"Don't worry every god give the same power so you don't need to be sad"
"I hate to put all the burden to you "
"Don't worry about it
"I'm sorry you have to be stuck with such a rookie… (Sob)... (So-.
"(Clap) a loud sound stop her from almost crying and see kasai with both hand showing like he was praying. "Hestia let me tell you this… I'm happy that we are together and to be honest I like a little this way of life since I'm not the type who like to be in the spot light all the time so please cheer up "with those word she smile with a flush in her face.
"OK! NOW let's upgrade your status and show me how far you grown "
"Ok "
As he lay down the bed with his back facing up and hestia on top of him then a flash of blue light then letters and number began to appear and after a minute the letters disappear a and she put a piece of paper on his back and began to read.

"Nothing really my finger slip "she said it as she makes her cheek bigger which made him sweat drop.

He left leaving the tiny girl with the paper at hands she rush her finger in the skill part and two words appear {{strong will}} 'an skill that make's the adventure stronger as long his will stays strong ' "congratulations kasai-kun you have an skill "
Then she see the clothes he was wearing and notice something "umm kasai-kun where is your sword "
He looks at his equipment and sees his sword is not there "(sigh) maybe I drop it in the fifth floor so don't worry about it. Tomorrow early I'll go back and try to find it "
"Are you sure you say it's really Important "
"Don't worry about it after all I'm the only one who can wield it "
Next morning
Kasai woke up and feel some weight in his chest he look and see Hestia under the blanket.
"she really needs to sleep on the bed " he said it as she move a little forward making her chest shake a little " and for such a small girl she sure is develop " he move and let her rest in the sofa " I'm off Hestia " and he left.
On the streets
I head directly to the dungeon as I recall what happen yesterday "I'm really lucky to be ali-"then suddenly I felt someone is watching me.
"um" then I hear voice and turn around and see a human girl with black hair has lost its luster leaving it bluish-grey in color that she keeps tied with a small knot in a ponytail style. Her eyes are the same color as her hair and she has a milky white and smooth skin. She wears a white blouse and a leaf-colored knee-length long skirt. She also wears a slightly long half-apron around her waist. She wears a pair of brown boots over black stockings.
"Hello is what I can help you "I ask and the girl move her hand forward and she give me a stone.
"You drop this sir "
I narrow my eyes when I see the stone but I decided to leave for later "thanks ". I put the rock in my pocket and ready to leave.
"Are you going to the dungeon? "She ask.
"Yeah "
"But are you going to be in trouble if you don't bring a weapon "she said it as she points at my empty sword case.
"don't worry about it I have a secondary weapon " he tales out a knife " well I have to g-(growl) there was a silence between them.
"You must be hungry "
"Yeah" I only replay with a depress tone
"Wait here "she went inside and brought a lunch box "please take it "
"Are you sure isn't this your lunch
Don't worry about I'll have plenty when the restaurant is open "
"But "
"In return why not come here and eat tonight ...Please won't you "she say it in a cute way that make me remember of someone.
"Sure "
"Syr flover "
"kasai flame "
"Flame? That is weird last me but it also it's a cool one.
In the dungeon
Kasai is walking inside the dungeon trying to find his sword and then he sees marking in the floor and wall "this is where the Minotaur began to chase so he looks at his right and began to wall,
Few minutes has pass and he finds the last alley "oh there it is " he notified a black sword on the floor "sorry for leaving you like this " he pick up the sword and put it in the case " now let's got some money "
He walk to the dark of the dungeon and began to kill.
Time skip
At night of the same day kasai is walking wearing black boot and pants and a black shirt under a black jacket with silver outlining and a scaly looking scarf.
"It sure it lively "
He sees inside the pub where there is many man celebrating.
"The Benevolent Mistress "he says the name of the pub then seal appear in his point of view.
"Oh you're the adventure! You came "
"Yeah "
"And you with the looks… where you really that excited to see me you wanted to impress me " she said it her cute way but this time it made him sweat drop and made a wry smile.
He got inside and sat at the corner of the bar and take a look the room for a second and his view of the room got interrupted as big bowl of spaghetti appear in front of him.
" you must be syr's Friend, the adventurer " he looks a woman with brown hair tie in a ponytail with blue clothes and white apron " I have to say your more handsome than what she says "
"umm thanks " and she returns to the kitchen.
"300 for the food+200 and for the drinks…. Well that is not much "but soon another plate appear in his side.
"Here it is... The special of the house. "
"But I didn't order this "
"Come on you need it if you want to put more muscle "then she walks back to the kitchen.
"That woman better not bring me another plate "
"Are you having fun "he hears syr voice behind him.
"Hey by any reason you invited me just so you can earn some money "he ask with a deadpan expression.
She only giggle and say "I got discover"
"Great for you "and soon he began to eat.
"You know I like it here since I can see many kind of people how they look so I can discovers many secrets and it fills my heart, you could say it a weird hobby of mine"
He only listen as he sees an waitress announcing the entrance of customers with reservations "huh" ne sees a woman dress in a tomboy outfit follow by a group of people and "gwua" the food got stuck in his trough from the surprise of the girl who safe him is within the group.
"That's the sword princess "
"That emblem "
"They're the Loki familia!"
After they all sat on a table the red head woman can for cheers and began to party.
"The Loki familia are regular customers.. It seems their goddess Loki likes this place "she explains why they like to come her as kasai sees the red woman try touch Aiz but stop when she got hit in the head by her.
'And just when I thought Hestia was the only one who is too much attach to her familia 'he thought when suddenly a slam was hear and he sees a werewolf began to scream' and the first one to get down is him'
"BY THE WAY AIZ... TELL US WHAT HAPPEN TO YOU THE OTHER DAY "the silver were wolf call aiz.
"What do you mean "she ask?
"REMENBER? THE FEW MINOTAURS WE LOST ON OUR RETURN? "Kasai began to recall what happen and "YOU KILLED THE LAST ONE ON THE FIFTH FLOOR DIDN'T YOU? REMENBER I'M TALKIN ABOUT THAT TOMATO GUY"
Kasia only face palm as he heard the name he was given "If the others ever heard of that it be hell "he said it as he kept on listen.
"Are you talking about the Minotaur who escape after we defeated them?" aiz ask as
"Yeah exactly they miraculously escaped to upper floors so we had to chase them up "he yell
"so it was them uh?... for a famous family they sure make a big mistake " kasai only shake his head in disappointed.
"And guess who they ran into...SOME WEAK LITTLE ROOKIE!"
"That guy sure has some guts?... speaking of the misfortune of others as everyone is listening " he said it but "well is not like I ca-wuah "he soon felt pain in his left eye. 'Shit don't tell me the seal "
"I almost laughed my ass off! He was cornered like a little dog… trembling pitifully and stoned face "
"Correction what I was afraid is been stab in the face "he said it holding his head down and left hand in his left eye.
"Hm? So what happen to the adventurer? Did he survived "the one who ask was a tall elven beauty with sparkling emerald-colored hair reaching to the waist and tied in a bundle, She has a pair of sharp pointy ears, and a pair of clear jade-color eye."aiz slashed the minotaur at the last second right?"
The werewolf began to shake as he try to hold his laught" then the guy got covered in blood and turn in to a tomato and as a thanks the boy ran screaming like a little girl…OUR ROYAL PRINCESS GOT DUMPED BY THE GUY SHE JUST SAVE"
"HAHAHAHAHAA" everyone laugh as the red head woman told how Moe aiz became as she is now fear by adventure.
"But it was so pathetic. He shouldn't become an adventure is he is going to run away…that really piss me off."
"It was careless of us of us to let those Minotaur's escape. We do not have any right to mock him over drinks when he deserves an apology.
'At least someone of them is mature enough 'he thought as he holds his left eye. syr began to get really worry since his been holding his eye for a long time.
"Yeah, yeah as expected elf-sama is as proud as ever. But what's wrong in calling trash "trash" uh? "
"Stop it you're ruining the celebration" the red head try to stop them.
'About time you try to control something "kasai thought.
"What do you think aiz? That pathetic jerk who was shaking in front of you "
"I think he couldn't help it under those circumstances"
"What are you paying a good girl, then let me ask you? Who would you rather mate with? Me or that guy" the werewolf ask
'That guy lost it 'he thought
"So Aiz which will you chose "
"I wouldn't pick you if you were the last man in the mortal world bate "
'That harsh' kasai thought.
"Then what would you accept the guy if he told you "I love you in your face ""
She did not answer that made the werewolf laugh again " you can answer yes to a wimp who is weaker that you beyond any hope of salvation doesn't deserved to stand by your side, you of all people can accepted,…A small fry like him is not suitable for you Aiz Wallenstein " kasai did not care what he say but the next thing he say got him " I bet he couldn't protect a girl " then imagines appear in his mind of him and a beautiful girl having a good time but then his mind got dark as an image of the girl in armor is been stab by a huge shadow.
(Slam) he slam his both arm in the bar and left leaving a huge stain of blood on the wood and trail of blood coming from his left eye.
"KASAI-SAN" syr chase him but when she got at the door he was already gone. She turn around and see Aiz was behind her.
"The boy was the one from the incident "she stood there for a moment but "kasai" she said the name of the guy as she hear a struggling voice from inside and sees the silver hair boy is tie and hanging from the roof.
Inside the dungeon
Kasai with a bloody eye is fighting with a single knife.
'I bet he couldn't protect a girl 'those word and the same imagen of the girl been pirce by the shadow still in his mind.
"I will protect hestia and those who I care "then a second the a few words came to his mind "protect the people you care about "
"I will "and with full force he slash the monster in half.

"I was in the dungeon "he respond.
"Why would you do that "she ask with anger in her voice "going without equipment this is not like you "
