Ereshkigal
As I always think, our Familia is really unusual.
The Ereshkigal Familia I joined is a minor Familia that uses an ordinary house built near Daedalus Street as its Familia home.
Up to this point, everything is fine.
Daedalus Street may have poor public safety, but thanks to the Astraea Familia, it's gradually getting better.
One reason I think the Ereshkigal Familia is unusual is that I'm the only member, and...
"B-Bellf! Get this cat off me!"
"Yes~"
...because of Ereshkigal, the Familia's goddess.
Ereshkigal is a strange goddess I happened to meet after entering Orario, and she's my goddess.
A clumsy goddess who calls herself the god of the underworld, yet can't even get rid of a tiny kitten.
That was Ereshkigal.
And maybe because she's shy, she never goes outside the Familia home, spending her time growing flowers in the corner of her room.
"Why can't you even handle one cat?"
"Ugh... but if I grab it and the cat gets hurt, or if it dies..."
"Right now, Ereshkigal is about as strong as a passing Lv. 1 adventurer, so it's fine to hold a cat."
"Ugh..."
I placed the cat on Ereshkigal's lap as she sat there politely.
"Eek! B-Bellf!?"
"Try petting it once."
"W-Won't it get hurt!? Won't it be scared!?"
"..."
"Paw-paw!"
"This thing is scared?"
Far from being scared, it looked like it might be the one mocking her.
"Anyway, I'm off to work now."
"Ah, have a good day!"
Oddly enough, the Ereshkigal Familia is an adventurer Familia.
But since I was the only member and the captain, and I was a blacksmith,
"You're coming on the expedition... right?"
"..."
"You're coming, right!? You are, aren't you!?"
I sometimes joined the Loki Familia's expeditions while working as a blacksmith.
"I'm not. I've got too much work piled up."
My current level is 4.
I make all sorts of things.
Weapons, armor, arrows, whatever I make, my epithet ended up becoming [All-Rounder].
"Ah, please!"
"Ereshkigal is waiting! So let go!!!"
I raised my hammer for the goddess waiting at the Familia home.

Kama
"Hehe..."
A woman's voice drifted into my ear.
At the same time, something heavy began pressing down on my body.
"...What are you doing?"
Slowly opening my eyes, I found a very beautiful goddess with white hair and red eyes sitting squarely on my stomach and looking down at me.
"Let's see~? This is your punishment for flirting with another woman, I suppose?"
Another woman?
...
Ah.
"You mean because I talked to a Guild employee?"
"You understand very well."
I didn't think I was flirting, though...
"...Yup."
"Kyah!?"
I used my arms to pull Kama into a hug.
"L-Let go!"
"Okay."
"...Huh?"
Kama looked flustered when I let go so obediently.
With a face bright red, Kama shouted, "W-What is this!? If you're going to do it, then do it properly!"
"Didn't you tell me to let go first, Goddess?"
"Ugh!"
"Should I do it again?"
"...Yes."
Kama answered in a tiny voice.
I hugged Kama again.
"Here, this is a lunchbox made by the goddess of love. You can love it as much as you want, okay?"
"Thank you."
My main job is blacksmithing.
I do go into the Dungeon sometimes, but I'm still a blacksmith.
And even though it's the Kama Familia, I'm the only member.
Thanks to that, we ended up living like a newlywed couple.
"...Can you say that again today?"
"I like you."
"Ngh..."
Oddly enough, the goddess of love blushes when told she's loved.
"Isn't the goddess of love a little too clumsy?"
"A god who gives love doesn't receive love, so I'm not used to it!"
"Then what I'm giving you isn't love?"
"T-That's not it, but..."
As I always think, this goddess... is way too clumsy.
