Today is the day I've become an errand boy of Hephaestus-sama for real.
One could say that I'm a member of their familia as almost everyday until dusk, I am
either in one place to another. In either their familia or above the Babel where their smithworks are located.
From time to time, I took a glimpse of every adventurer that come and go from the dungeon, hoping to find 'it' but it seems like its not fruitful than I thought.
As for why am I doing such restless work? Well, next week is the said joint-expedition between Hephaestus and Loki familia, telling everybody that they're an ally. . .And because the former are mostly composed of blacksmith, their remaining adventurers-type members are very busy during that period, so here I am, coincidentally knocking in front of their door for work, and yes I was hired on the spot after that.
"Phew, your weapons are all here!"
This time, I am the delivery boy. I swiped my sweating forehead after that long walk while pulling this many equipment in different carts.
And because Loki Familia is also busy preparing, the equipment of their finest expedition member was stocked piled inside of Tsubaki-san's workspace whose also the captain of Hephaestus Familia. She told me to deliver it instead as her hand is full of works. So here I am.
On my back, gathers the shield, two-handed axe, a greave, and 2 others which is made of mithril, the said strongest and toughest minerals up to date.
On the second and third cart are all normal gears compared to those made of mithril But I reckon they're all expensive. In a sense, I am here to deliver these to Loki Familia's fella.
Entering inside their [Twilight Manor], or so what their mansion was called. I was in awe and shock and realized that our [Stardust Garden] is like a backyard to compare if we talk about design and space alone. But I ain't envy their Wealth. A mansion-like base like this is only because Loki Familia members counts hundreds whereas ours is only less than fifteen. So I ain't jealous. Not a little bit.
After liquidating the gears I delivered with the papers I am holding and checked everything, the receiver pallum nodded and form a faint smile:
"Thank you, child of Astraea" I can't help but blinked twice. If my memory serves me right, I never told anyone my name nor my affiliation. Even Hephaestus familia, other than herself and Tsubaki and few more, no one knows my affiliation and only knows I'm a contractor. Even to guards of Loki familia, I never stated my name. So how? I know I'm quite popular but even to this captain of Loki Familia? Finn Deimne.
"Don't be surprised. After all, if I am Hephaestus, I won't let some unknown person deliver my precious goods. Forget mithril weapons, the rest are costly. I'm surprised you are safe to arrive here" He explained and take a look at the separate cart.
Hell yeah? Why I didn't think of that? Good thing I'm lucky enough? heheh.
One after another, members of Loki Familia arrived and pick the weapon they suits best other than the said mithril weapons who have their respective owner.
"How is it?" Before departing, I heard the voice of Finn as he talked to one of his member. He is Laventienn, a human, he look at my direction but also nodded at Finn's question.
Other than Finn Deimne, there's Gareth Landrock the Elgram, Riveria Alf Ljos the Nine Hell whose three strongest member of Loki Familia, the small Ais Wallenstein whose popular for her fast level up with an alias of [Sword Princess]. There's also two tanned small girls and that tall werewolf, albeut still a child, he's amzingly tall.
All of which is the core member of Loki Familia.
Anyway, its not my business anymore. Just that, I was happy to see the lively Loki Familia. Ow I forgot, there's that flat chested-always closed eyed woman with crimson short hair. Their goddess Loki herself.
With that thought, I exited out of their manor.

". . ."
"I am here!"
In an alleyway, I found a man whose Idling and is obvious waiting for my arrival. Noticing he did not said any word after my emergence, I first to speak up:
"We're going to an expedition the day after tomorrow, what do you want me to do?" I questioned.
After all, I don't have any rights to obey him. Rather, I lived to serve him.
"I didn't know you've been part of Loki familia, by the way, did you level up? what can you give? Did you enjoy your life there?"
"Yes I enjoy it very well!, I've become the member of Loki Familia since that time, become level 2 and break the record of the sword princess. I now have an alias called [Black Lavender], maybe Kami-sama decided to name me after obtaining the skill [Flower Dance] after leveling up" I explained when only my upper body is visible while the rest is hidden inside the shadow.
He ain't trying to dwell on my personal life but I am happy to tell him mine if he ask to.
"Oho, amazing so not only you leveled up but you also obtained skill? Hmmm, but I'm not here to talk about that. You have 'that' right?"
"Of course!"
"Good! After all, I don't want to 'take' you just to get the information I wanted to obtain. I think its the same as killing you, so no"
"Thank you very much, master!" Saying so, I pulled out the book filled with the experience and information I gathered so far. from individual adventurer to familia, to monsters, to resources. I put all my thoughts into creating that. After all, I'm afraid to die!
"Master? don't joke on me, we're the same standings even though I have the full authority, so don't ever call me that again, anyway, goodluck! and don't die during that expedition!"
"Yes!" After that word, I dived deep into the shadow. I tried to listen to him for a time being and my spine shivered after hearing him.
"Ahhh, he's a level 2 and here I am idling, ahh! I'm envy! then, how about I 'create' another one to guard Kami-sama? give it my [Perfect Negation] and dive into the dungeon? ahhh, no! I should be the one besides Kami-sama all the time. . .memory is just a memory, it is better if I was the one beside her, instead" So he said with fingers on his chin.
Whew, good lord. I don't know what would happen if he tried to dive inside the dungeon.
Even with Zeus familia, No, maybe he can conquer the dungeon alone. Who knows, its just me talking to myself.
