~~next morning~~
after Just waking UP, Ren found that It was quite hard to breathe.
after looking down he saw Hestia laying in his chest with her deadly weapons.
'calm down Ren, though she is cute you Just got to know her, now you need to calm down' though Ren while using every bit of his Will Power to not do something.
Ren slowly put the goddess to the side while slipping to the ground to get out of that couch.
after seeing that his goddess didn't wake UP he though.
'thank god now i Just need to Go to the guild and try my best to forget the feeling'
Ren took a Quick bath with a water bucket he found at the back of the church, put one of the set of clothes in his inventory and left for the guild.
~~guild~~
after arriving Ren looked around, the guild was quite empty he could see three people who looked like adventurers but the rest where the guild employers.
at one of the counters he saw someone he knew, the elf who helped him at the start, Eina Tulle and Walked to the counter.
"you are the kid from that time, what do you need today?" Said Eina
"Hello miss Eina, today i came to register as a adventurer, and to ask If there's anywhere i can get information about the dungeon floors"
"good to know that everything went well for you, Just fill this paper with your information, and for the information on the First few floors How about you get an advisor? of course you can also Just Go to the library." Said Eina while looking at Ren with expectant eyes.
"do i need to pay anything for the advisor?"Said Ren
"yes, the advisor get's 5% of your income, of course It's only while you get help from your advisor, you can cancel this thing at any time."
"hmm, can you be my advisor? though for today i would want only some information on the First floor since i need to get used to some things."
"of course, give me a minute i'll call someone to take my place here, wait for me in one of the Boxes" Said Eina who was quite happy.
Ren gave her the paper filled with his information and Walked to one of the Boxes where he waited for a few minutes until Eina entered the box as well.
"let's start, what do you want to know about the dungeon? ah, and here is the proof that you are a registered adventurer" Said Eina
"for now simple things, things to be wary of in the First floor, information on Monsters in the First floor, etc"
after hearing this Eina started giving a explanation, about How the First floor Works, the Monsters, Basic attack patterns of those Monsters, ambushes, How to know the way out since the floors change from time to time, though the First floor rarely changes.
after the explanation Ren thanked her and left for the Tower of Babel he stopped in one of the alleys and took his sword out of his inventory and hanged It in his hips and continued on his way.
after arriving, there Ren saw a queue with a few guards looking at who goes in and out of the dungeon.
after giving the proof that he got at the guild the guards let him pass, It was a dark tunnel, though he could still see everything, and at the end of the tunnel he had a feeling like It was another world, the walls where light blue, and you could see that the floor was quite wide.
After looking around Ren heard a Voice in his mind.
[It's detected that you are in the First floor of the dungeon, do you want to sign-in?] Said the mechanical Voice
'yes, sign-in' Said Ren.
[ding... congratulations you won, a watch with infinite battery, a Compass that points to the place you want to Go, and a book that describes How to fight with a sword, the itens where sent to your inventory]
'a Lot of useful things, i'll try to kill a few goblins First and see How much i'll grow and when i Go back i'll start training'
'system, do i have any Quest available?'

'good quests, i'll probably leave the third Quest for tomorrow, today objective is to get used to kill.
after thinking that Ren took his sword out of the scabbard and the Compass out of his inventory.
after seeing the Compass point to Northwest he walked in that direction until he saw a small creature his skin was Green and It had pointed ears and was with his back to him, for someone who watched anime that thing was quite obvious that It was a goblin.
he walked quietly and without the goblin noticing his existence he stabbed It in his back.
the goblin started screaming and falled with his face on the ground.
Ren removed the sword from his back and kept stabbing It until It Burst in a cloud of Black smoke leaving behind a Magic Stone.
Ren felt a warm feeling in his body but paid no mind for now.
seeing that he had no problem killing for the First time Ren though of changing his approach to see If He could kill a goblin head-on
he took his Compass again and It was still pointing to Northwest so he kept walking.
this time the goblin saw him arriving, and started running in his direction.
Ren slashed his sword from above, which the goblin was quite slow to Dodge and barelly blocked with his dagger.
the goblin screamed but kept trying to attack from another side, which since he was quite slow Ren reacted by piercing his heart with a sword and then the goblin Burst in a cloud of smoke leaving a Magic Stone.
like last time Ren also felt a warm feeling in his body, though this time It was less.
'system what is this warm feeling that i get every time i kill a Monster?'
[since your status is updated in real time instead of only when the god do It personally, It's a sign of your strength increasing, for more details open your status]
'show me my status'
after thinking that a BLUE screen appeared.

'rob gave me a good cheat, yesterday exercise plus two Monsters pushed my status to H, the only one who didn't change was magic since i don't have a way to use It yet'
after saying his status Ren started walking again, and kept killing goblins for 4 hours, he had completed his Quest long ago, he used the last of the Lower stamina recovery potion bought yesterday, and as he was getting tired and started to notice that the hot feeling he had when he killed a Monster was decreasing to the point he could barelly notice he choose to Go back to the guild and in the way he choose to see the changes in his status and receive his Quest reward.
'system give me the rewards of the Second Quest'

after seeing his status he kept walking to the guild.
~~guild~~
after arriving at the guild, he saw a Lot more adventurers than at morning, considering he had a Lot of Magic Stones, and he didn't know what was normal for a adventurer in their First time, and thanks to the Compass he probably surpassed them by a Lot, he choose to search for his advisor.
after looking around he saw the beautiful half elf helping to organize the adventurers and then he walked in her direction.
"hi Eina, can we talk a bit?"
"of course, did you have a problem in today exploration?"
"no, It's Just that i may have hunted a bit too much, so there's a way to Exchange Magic Stones without anyone seeing or should i leave It for tomorrow morning?" Said Ren.
"by too much, you mean?"
"cou...hundred" Said Ren faking a low cough.
come to one of the Boxes with me, i'll help you with that. Said Eina with quite a scary smile.
after Being gently escorted to the box for the few seconds that he can say he was the most scared in his whole life, she closed the door of the box after the both of them entered.
"did you Go for any other floor aside from the First?" Said Eina with a scary smile
"no, i didn't, i only stayed in the First floor since It was my First time" Said Ren as fast as he could
"then explain to me How you have a hundred Magic Stones from killing Monsters in the First floor" Said Eina as her smile was getting even scarier
"i was Just walking normally, finding a Monster here and there, killing It easily, taking the Magic Stone, you know, like a normal adventurer"
"show me the Stones"
after she Said that Ren remembered that he left the Stones in his inventory but well, he couldnt say he Lost them, with the smile she is making right now If she sees anything that Is not from a goblin among them she Will probably slaughter me.
so to live he choose to open his inventory directly and that shocked the elf who saw the Stones falling in the floor.
"do you have storage Magic?"
"Yes, please don't Tell anyone, otherwise my goddess might scold me after breaking the promise i made her yesterday."
"of course, Trust is important in this profession you know."
"let's see, there's really only goblin Magic Stones here, How did you kill so many in the First floor?"
"let's say that i was camping in their respawn"
seeing that he told something without much details she choose to not ask more considering that everyone has their privacy.
"123 Magic Stones, every Magic Stone is 100 valis so, 12300 valis, the 5% from the advisor, 11.685 valis is that okay with you?"
"yes, in case something like this happens again, can i find you?"
"yes, considering you are part of a New familia it's for the best that you don't attract that much attention, especially from other gods"
"thank you miss, i'm going back cause i'm tired, have a Nice day"
after saying that he left the guild, It was 16pm.
on the way back home he found a few barracks who sell Jagamarukun, he bought 10 for the price of 30 valis each=300 valis
(total money: 15.185 valis)
~~church~~
after arriving Ren walked to the back of the church to eat, and complete his First Quest.
after completing the exercise Ren felt much more relaxed than last time, but well, who would say bad things about free points.
[The Quest Weak chicken was completed, do you wish to receive your rewards now?]
'yes'
[congratulations, you won 20 system points]
It took him 4 hours to end the Quest, and he heard a Voice inside the church and Walked inside.
"goddess, are you home?"
then a loli came running.
"hi Ren, How was your First day in the dungeon?"
"quite easy, i found a good advisor who explained things nicely to me so It wasn't that hard"
want to update your falna?
"yes please, maybe i can Go to a lower floor next time."
"you know, these things should be done slowly, First that your falna shouldn't increase so fast even with the boost from your Race, and remember safety is always First, you won't leave me alone right?" Said Hestia with a face like she was about to cry as they Walked to her Room.
"take off your shirt and lay on the bed."
Ren took his shirt and layed on the bed.
after that hestia Sat on his back and pierced her finger to let a drop of blood fall on his back.
a bright light appeared from Ren back and Hestia had a dumbfounded face.
"did you fight a a Monster horde? How did your status increase so much?"
"did It increase too much? Tell me the changes".
"everything aside from Magic reached G?" Said Ren while acting surprised
"wasn't It you know, supposed to Go slower?"
"How many Monsters did you kill?" asked hestia
"123, in the First floor, why?"
"123... i'm not even surprised anymore, well, Just promise me this, come back alive okay, my only family is you, you idiot"
"okay i promise, even If everyone else die in the dungeon i Will come back alive" Said Ren with a serious expression.
"let's Go eat something, though it's not much but well, tomorrow we have to work, and you should be tired from the dungeon, so rest early" Said Hestia with a complicated expression
and that's How one more fullfiling dinner was made, they talked mainly about How their day was, things about the fight in the dungeon, Hestia talking about How well her business was going until they ate everything and gone to the Room to sleep.
"hestia, why are you comming to the couch? your bed is over there"
"but i wan't to sleep with Ren."
"goddess, you are forgetting something important, i'm a Men so Go sleep in the bed" Said Ren
"but Ren is so cute that there won't be any problem even If we sleep together"
"no there is a problem, Go to bed"
after saying that Ren took his sheet and covered himself as If to say i won't hear you anymore, Go to sleep.
--------------------------------------------------------------
Hope you guys enjoy the chapter, i did my best with interactions in this one, Tell me If you liked it, there's a vote for his status in the First author note so don't forget to leave a vote there, i Will make small changes to the 3 chapters that i published based on the result, the fights where Just goblins so i didn't explain much, i also didn't talk much about sword skills considering he is a complete novice with a weapon so Being able to slash and pierce is good enough.
for those who thinks the main character are doing things too slow, from the next chapter i Will increase the rate a bit, but not by much, the First few chapters are more of him getting used to the world, the system, getting knowledge of the dungeon, so that he won't Go head-on and die early after ALL he has ALL the potential he Just needs time to grow, after All even though he knows what happens that doesn't mean that he's absolutely right as well, though i didn't talk about It, i Will edit the other chapters later, he watched the anime until haruhime part only, so that It won't become something like i always know everything, i think the story loses the romance at that time even though i like the ways they use so that the main character counters ALL the enemies
