It's currently 7:30 a.m in the morning. A day after Yuuya joined Hestia and became it's first ever member.
'Hey system' thought Yuuya after neatly folding his bed.
[Sup?]
'I noticed Bell isn't here yet. When will he arrive or rather, when will the story start?' Thought Yuuya while he brushes his teeth.
[After your arrival, around 2 weeks and 5 days. I think it was during this time that Bell got the news that his grandfather or rather, Zeus, has finally kick the bucket or something.]
'Yeah I remember. It was something like being killed by monsters in the forest I guess. Faking his death and all.' thought Yuuya as he gurgles the water and spit it out.
[Yeah cruel bastard, leaving Bell all by himself so that he can finally start in his adventure. But hey, atleast this version of Zeus isn't like the one back on Earth.]
'True'.
Suddenly, Hestia's voice broke through the room.
"Yuuyaaaa!"
"Yes goddess? What you calling me for?"
"I forgot I haven't put my falna on you yet! Let's do it now!"
"Ah that is true. Wait goddess, give me a moment"
Yuuya then proceeded to grab a a chair and place it in front of him so that he have somewhere to sit. After that, he took his shirt off to reveal his back to Hestia as he sat in the chair.
The said action having an effect to the goddess, surprising Hestia. Not because she hasn't seen a naked body before no, it's because of Yuuya's body.
Hestia has seen adventures of various sizes before. Most of the time, they have muscles that are too big, grotesque, or bloated even.
But Yuuya? Yuuya is different. In front of her is Yuuya's back in all of its glory basking in the morning light. Compared to the muscles of the adventurers she has described a moment ago, Yuuya have a very defined muscles of the right size and proportion.
Overall, for Hestia, Yuuya have enough muscle on the right place and symmetry. Making Hestia feel hot in the face.
'ho-holy Tenkai! Such a body! Is that a 6 pack!? And is that the obliques or the serratus anterior?' Thought Hestia, as she stood there, surprised at her very first familia member body.
"Goddess? Is everything alright?" Asked Yuuya sensing the lack of movement.
"Ye-yes! Everything is alright! Wait a moment, let me take a needle!" Said Hestia stuttering, breaking from her train of thoughts.
Yuuya just sweat dropped as he watches his Goddess scurry around trying to find the needle she'll use to prick herself with.
[Nice body bro, you even manage to short circuit a virgin goddess for a moment.]
"Oh just shut it will you." Whisper Yuuya.
A moment later, Hestia finally found the needle she is looking for and at last, started the engraving of the falna.
"Alright Yuuya, we will start now. It might feel odd at first but everything would be fine!" Said Hestia as she pricked her finger.
"Yes goddess, I trust you." replied Yuuya as a small smile crept up his face due to the excitedness of his goddess.
A drop of blood from Hestia's finger made contact with Yuuya's back as the engraving of Falna finally started.
A small light showed was emitted in response as hieroglyphs dances around everywhere at Yuuya's back, while Hestia patiently manages them and when it finally settles, it left her questioning reality.
"Wh-what in the world is this?" Asked Hestia, a mix of awe and a bit of worry in her voice.
"Is everything alright goddess?" Yuuya asked he looked at his back.
Hestia didn't respond. She only took two blank papers to make a physical copy of Yuuya's falna before closing it.
After Yuuya put his shirt back on, he and Hestia sat side by side on the bed to discuss his falna.

ASC: I changed some things as you can see. I also removed some things he isn't supposed to have yet.
Yuuya just stared blanly at his status sheet as he already knows his status from the system.
"Yuuya be honest with me, how are you a level 2?" Asked Hestia with a bit of concern in her face.
"Well I have some experiences beforehand before I came here." lied Yuuya, though technically it isn't a lie. As he literally fought a war just a few days ago. Plus the fact he is a super human in his past life. This half truth half lie bypasses Hestia's lie detecting ability as a god.
Hestia sensing no lie in Yuuya's word accepted it, though with still a bit of suspicion.
"I must admit Yuuya, you have quite the incredible status here. But what concerns me the most is your skill Yuuya. A passive skill of some sort called Monstrous Talent & Potential which causes faster growth. Do you know what this means?"
"Hm?"
"Yuuya this means you'll grow faster than any adventurers there is at the current day. This would make you a target if the word about this gets out."
Hestia grabs Yuuya's hand and looks straight at his abyss like eyes.
"Promise me Yuuya, that you'll never reveal any of this to anyone. Not because I want to keep you all for myself, but for your safety as well."
Yuuya stared at Hestia who's waiting for his answer before giving her albeit small, a reassuring smile.
"I promise Goddess, such decision wouldn't even cross my mind as it may endanger you."
Hestia detected no lie. Yuuya is telling the truth and she trust him. Call it a goddess intuition, but she has a feeling that Yuuya is a good liar. Which reassures her a bit concerning the matter they have at hand.
"Alright, I trust you Yuuya. To avoid complications, we'll give this paper into the guild instead when you registered." Said Hestia as she showed the other paper which has the aforementioned skill removed.
Yuuya nodded in response before getting up and preparing to head to the guild.
"By the way goddess, do you want to come with me to register in the guild?" Offered Yuuya.
"Sure why not! I might as well assist you and show you around Orario on the way to the guild. Since I still have a bit of time before my shift in the jagamarukun stall." Hestia happily replied.
Yuuya just responded with a small smile, amused by his goddess enthusiasm.
"Then, shall we?" Said Yuuya as he opened the door.

Word count: 1,192
AN: Another short chapter. This will probably be the usual length for the chapters meant to fill or advance the plot. Unless it's a important or a chapter that I'm really, really excited to write, then this will be the usual length. Pardon me for my lack of imagination lol.
But once Bell arrives, expect them to be consistently longer than usual since I'll based it on the anime.
Well that is all, until next time.
