Bell pov
"Ah wait didn't i say i was giving you combat training later" Rimuru remembered that I wasn't even supposed to be here.
"Ah nevermind. Making it here means your good enough to start adventuring on your own. I'll still spar and improve your fighting though" Captain said this and at left dragging me out
When we arrived to the surface he went to the counter and Gave a large sack of magic crystals totaling 500,000 vallis
"That's a lot for a single person to gather on there first trip to the dungeon". The clerk from before was exchanging the crystals I got from the dungeon
"Of course it's always surprising to see you do these things. After all you still look like a child. And you look to big to be a pallum but to small to be a human adult".
"Oh well then. Nothing i could do about it"
Leaving the guild hall we head back to the old church where Hestia was waiting. "Bell, Rimuru good to see you two again." Calling out to us we head inside
"Time to update your statuses." Hestia said this and made bell lay flat and expose his back

Rimuru pov
"So bell. What do you desire" with that question. Bell looks at me straight in the eye
"To become as strong as you captain" Bell didn't even flinch when asked.
Gotta give the kid credit. He's got guts.
"Alright bell. I'll start teaching you combat right now lets go" with that I drag him off to the basement where we cleared it out for a sparring ring
Bell pov
Finally captain is going to teach me combat.
"Begin" Rimuru says this words and I started to charge him with my dagger
As soon as I get close I try and stab him but he easily sidestepped it forcing me to roll forward and turn or expose my back
"Nice reflexes. But to basic." Rimuru has been assessing my movements
Hearing this I rush him but this time instead of stabbing at him I take a dive to his side and kick out trying to get her off balance.
As soon as I kick Rimuru jumped avoiding me entirely
That my chance
As soon as I kick out i twist and jump to land in a crouch and stab at Rimuru
The knife hit empty air as Rimuru sidestepped and jumped back.
"Good job bell. At the very least you know the basics of fighting but you left yourself open to many times". Rimuru declared this and proceeded to teach me basic stances with a knife and how to take advantage of my speed
The next morning Freya pov
I was meeting with Loki in secret to discuss an expedition to the deeper floors when I saw them. A boy with a transparent soul. Weak but will grow unimaginably stronger in the future. And a child next to him with nothing. I quite literally saw nothing not even a speck of the soul.
That shouldn't even be possible. I can't even feel the souls energy at all
"I'm sorry Loki I must go" I apologize to Loki quickly and left
"Hmm some other poor adventurer caught your interest this time" Loki was rather amused by this.
When I left I headed to my room in Babel and asked Ottar to look into them.
A few minutes later Ottar returned with the information I asked for.
Rimuru tempest and bell cranel. Those two are both Hestia's children and one of them is level 6 and the other is a starter. Once bell grows stronger I'll take them both into my familia.
But just who is Rimuru tempest. It's strange that I can't see his soul and even stranger that I haven't heard of her before.
"Good work Ottar. I feel bell will grow extremely powerful in the future. But for now I'm interested in just how strong this Rimuru is" with that Freya trellis Ottar of a scheme to test how strong Rimuru is and see how fast bell can grow in strength.
