5 Adam, Mission, Hestia means Bestia.

Narrator POV:

(He's--!) Mikhael thought with slight astonishment as he looked closely at the man in his field of vision. Clearly recognizing him.

"So, since you arrived, without further ado, I will introduce myself. My name is Adam. After my physical death I was dragged into this space."

"And a certain existence called "system" offered me to make a certain human, chosen by the system, to inherit everything I currently have."

The man known as Adam said. With a calm expression as he walked away from the tree he was standing on and sat down on a cut log.

"In exchange, the system will give a special mission to its host, to you. In which when you are strong enough, you will go to my home world to help the humanity of that world to win one fight"

Adam said as he looked at the sky with his blue eyes. Apparently remembering those he sadly left behind after his death.

"Now having said all this, it is time to begin the "test" of inheritance"

Adam said while cracking his knuckles, in turn, Mikhael had a drop of non-existent sweat fall on his face as he began to understand the situation he was in.

"Don't worry, although I lost my physical strength with the death of my physical body, I still maintain all my skills and experience."

"Since we are both in spirit form, we can interact with each other. By the way, time in this space flows much slower than outside, 1 day outside is a year here"

Adam said with a beautiful calm smile that Mikhael found particularly sinister.

***

In the space of inheritance, inside the forest, 5 years later.

"Kurma? Can you hear me?."

Mikhael said, who was sitting on the wet forest floor.

He was in the middle of a break, when it occurred to him to call Kurma to get something from her that would surely help him in his plans.

"I can hear You, what do you need?. I don't think you'll call me after only 5 days because you missed me after not seeing me for a long time, right?."

Kurma's playful voice sounded through the identification badge that she had given to Mikhael a few days ago.

"I need you to give me a few gift cards like the ones you gave me with your knowledge when we met but I need they empty. It's for some plans I have in mind."

Mikhael said lazily while resting a hand on his cheek. Explaining the reason for his call to her.

(A gift Card, is a high-value card that can store the manifestation of a Gift and other things. The card itself is a gift that also identifies the soul-intertwined gift of the owner.)

"gift cards?, I have 10 units of those things. I will send them to you right now, treat it as a gift from me, kahaha."

Kurma said, while Mikhael watched as 10 gift cards stacked one below the other appeared in front of the amulet.

"then I guess I will have to give my sincere thanks to my kind boss for this gift hahaha."

Mikhael said as he kept the 10 gift cards in his inventory. Ready to be used in the future, where they would undoubtedly be useful.

"If that's all then I'll hang up, just when you called I was busy arriving at Little Garden. So I'll continue with my flight, see you later, little one."

Kurma's voice said from the amulet before the communication was cut off with the final sound of high-speed air. Without giving Mikhael time to say goodbye to Kurma.

"Now that you're done with that, it's time to continue with the training. We're already halfway there, my foolish disciple."

Adam said, who was at some point already there.

Waiting to continue with what was originally a test. But becamed just Adam teaching Mikhael everything he knew through an almost Spartan training.

"yes, yes I'm going, I'm going."

Mikhael said as they resumed the training.

Narrator POV:

5 years later according to the time of the inheritance space and 5 days according to the time that flowed normally.

Danmachi world, in a small forest a few kilometers from Orario.

You could see how space was torn as a vortex appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the now-silent forest.

While a man was expelled by that same vortex, falling perfectly on his feet with ease.

"oh, so that's the world travel of the system, although it's now in a 1-month cooldown before it can be used again. It's worth it to be able to come to a world where making a historical transition is a piece of cake and..."

He said that, while he landed perfectly. Covered in a black hooded tunic. Revealing only red pants followed by some fairly normal brown shoes.

The only special thing about this set of clothes being the fact that they seemed to have a medieval style.

"Oh, is this a welcome to me?

The man said after seeing the clear night sky, and observing how an absolutely beautiful shower of stars began to streak across the sky.

"Teacher, when my training began, you asked me what I would like to obtain once I obtained the inheritance. At that time I could not tell you, because I did not know it myself, but i do now...

The man said, speaking to himself. As he extended his white and flawless but slightly muscular hands towards the shower of stars in the sky.

"I want everything in the world"

The man said, his tone of voice full of greed and emotions. While the hands extended towards the sky closed little by little as if within them he wanted to hold the firmament itself.

"And the whole world wants me too"

The figure said while laughing, full of excitement and expectations at the beginning of his long-awaited journey after 10 years of arduous preparation.

"I want all that this world has to offer, bonds, women, strength, fame, honor, money, and even..."

The man said while looking out of the corner of his eye at a certain special mission of the system that was assigned moments ago by the will of the world itself after the system communicates with the world's will.

[World's Will Mission:

Name: The hero of the End

Objective: kill the One-Eyed Black Dragon

Reward:Dragon Slayer Essence spirit,Hero essence spirit, 1/3 of the World's savior Essence spirit

Special rewards:the opportunity to revive and transport two people from the user's original world ]

"and even what I lost in the past"

The figure said as he clenched his fists towards the sky. His eyes full of determination to regain what he lost and never lose anything he cared about again.

"Hahahahaha."

The man was laughing happily out loud with happiness while with his eyes. Which were a little red but full of nostalgia and happiness, he saw that beautiful scene of the star shower until its end.

Hestia POV:

Orario, the day after the meteor shower, shortly after noon.

In one of the dozens of secondary streets that made up the second district. Away from the hustle and bustle of the city center.

That's where I was, Hestia, a goddess. While trying to invite an adventurer to join my family for the 46th time in these five and a half months since I came down from heaven.

"I'm sorry I'm sorry. I left the magic stone in the kitchen on and I have to come back quickly before it runs out, excuse me, and goodbyeeee"

A young but quite average adventurer said. Same who fled from me ashamed with a terrible excuse after the moment he learned that my family did not have any members until that very moment.

As I expected, I was rejected for the 46th time, I was almost beginning to wonder if I should give up on starting a family.

At least for now, and instead dedicate myself to reading books in the library I frequented.

"Oh, are you looking for members for your familia?, Because it turns out to be a coincidence that I was looking for a familia to join..."

A voice said from about 4-5 meters behind me, as I turned around in a hurry due to the shock of suddenly hearing a voice behind me.

Then, I saw him for the first time. He was a man with a tunic that covered the upper part of his body.

Revealing only pants and shoes with a slightly backward sense of fashion that I would later find adorable.

"Shouldn't you at least show your face when making a request as important as joining a Familia?"

I said at that moment with obvious caution to the suspiciously dressed guy.

Seeming prepared to hide his identity while committing a crime, not that I had money with me at the time either, hahaha.

"Oh, right, I was rude. Please don't take it seriously, I just used this to avoid attracting so much attention while walking through the streets"

The man said, no, young man. Because of his voice, which although with an evident degree of masculinity in it, could still be classified as beautiful.

As he removed the hood of his robe and revealed his face.

"See?, now that this matter is clear, would you allow me to join your Familia?"

The young man said, but I barely heard him while I was rather surprised by how he looked.

He had the form of a young and muscular man with supreme beauty that could arouse even gods.

With his platinum-blond short hair and impressive blue eyes that looked like the sky.

He looked good and handsome enough to make people think that he was a god.

To the point where I subconsciously at that moment briefly lamented that such a god-like appearance could be ruined by the passage of time after a mere few decades.

With a beautiful gentle smile on his face that contrasted greatly with the mischief clearly shown in his eyes as he was aware of my reaction.

All this while I felt my heart rate increase considerably and my face blush slightly.

"Are you okay, my lady?, Your face seems a little red."

He asked me mockingly with mischief. Like a child who made a successful joke but with the attractiveness of a grown man.

What I didn't know at the time was that that encounter would later be engraved in my heart as a fond memory of the first time that I met my beloved hero.
