"Wayne-kun, just what is this? Just what is wrong with your status?"

Hestia said to me with a worried tone.

It seems like something is wrong with my status.

"Can I see it? I can't understand anything if you don't show that to me."

I said while trying to make myself comfortable by squirming a bit.

"Ah, my bad. Let me print it on paper."

With that, she brought the paper and printed my status on it.

After that, she gave it to me, and I leaned on the bed, getting a more comfortable position.

I looked at my status sheet.

I don't think there is anything wrong here aside from the fact that I already have a skill and magic.

For Hestia, that must be something rare, and it is rare, but not that much. However, Bell, too, got a skill on his first level, which is probably one of the most broken skills out there.

So, Hestia, be sure to be ready for the surprises you will get when you see Bell.

"Hestia, what is wrong with my status sheet? I think it is normal, so I don't understand."

I asked since I really don't think it is that weird.

"What do you mean it is normal? There is just no way that this status sheet is normal. Heck, who does even start with skill?"

She said while looking at me with a deadpan expression. It seems like I am the weird one here.

(( You can't blame him here since he only watched the anime. And anime doesn't mention the skills of other adventurers too much, at least in the first three seasons. So, he thinks having magic and skill is normal.))

"Well, is it really that abnormal to have a skill? I don't know much about adventurers, so I am a bit clueless around that point."

I asked Hestia since it looked like she had something to say.

"Yes, it is really that abnormal. So, you must never mention anybody about your skill and magic. Do you understand me?"

She asked me with a worried tone.

"Okay, okay. Even though I might not have much common sense, I am not stupid to tell anyone about my trump cards, so don't worry."

I reassured her.

"Well, enough with that. Let me tell you what your skill and magic are about.

Firstly, your magic. From what I understand here, Blade Dancer is a skill that allows you to control a number of blades without touching them.

However, it doesn't say anything about how to control it, so you need to figure it out yourself.

It looks like the number of blades you can control and how long you can control them is related to your magic power.

And there is nothing here aside from that.

On the other hand, your skill Narcissus Thyme is a passive skill.

This skill, well, basically, you get more excelia while fighting by yourself and for yourself while putting yourself in the thin thread of life.

Yes, it is really written here like that.

Let me read you what is written here.

'One needs to be alone while dancing on the thread of life.'

It looks like this skill will be inactive if you are teaming up with someone else.

Well, that is basically what I can understand from the things written here."

She said while looking at me with a questioning gaze.

Well, did I do something to bother her?

"Hello, Kami-sama. What happened? Why are you looking at me like that?"

I decided to ask since she was looking at me like she would scold me.

"I think you need to put yourself in a very dangerous situation for your skill to work, and from the looks of it, you are not even bothered about that. Are you hiding something from me? Or do you just not care about your life? If it is the latter, now that I am here as your goddess, I won't let you throw your life away that easily. If you somehow overdo it, I will haunt you even after you leave this world, so don't even think about risking your life, got it?"

Wow, things got escalated quite fast.

I thought she was naïve, but it looks like she can be quite witty sometimes.

She even analyzed my response and made some right assumptions from it.

Yes, it is not weird for me to put my life on the line.

Do you think being an orphan from Daedalus Street is easy?

If you think so, then you need to wake up to reality.

In this world, nothing goes as ever planned, especially in a place like Daedalus Street, where everyone is trying to fill their stomachs.

There are so many people, who would kill you just for eating, so I always needed to be vigilant and watch out for other people.

One time I almost got killed while stealing food from other gangs, you know, so it is normal for me to put my life on the line.

But Hestia doesn't need to know that, and I am also uncomfortable with talking about my past.

But seeing her worried face, I couldn't help but smile a bit.

"No, no. It is not like that. You don't need to worry about that for the time being; I am just a newbie adventurer. Do you think I got my life on the streets? Of course, I won't throw it just like that. It was just a bit much for me, so I wasn't able to respond. You won't need to haunt anyone, don't worry. I won't ever leave you alone, okay?"

I said, looking at her worried face with a faint smile.

And seeing my expression, she got a bit embarrassed. It looks like she finally understood the cringe lines she said.

Well, this is okay. It looks like we are really a family right now.

Knowing someone is worrying about you is a very new feeling to me.

But, I must say, it feels good to know that.

"Ahh, I am a bit embarrassed. But you must promise me that you won't risk your life, okay?"

"Well, I would like to, but risking your life is what adventuring is about, no? So, I can't promise you that I won't risk my life. However, I can promise you that I will try my best to be careful and prepared. Is that okay for you?"

I answered her since it looked like she won't let me go without giving a promise.

"Okay, okay. You gave me your promise, so don't ever forget it."

She said while looking a bit relaxed.

After that, I got up, put on my shirt, and started walking upstairs.

"Where are you going?"

"I will go and clean this place up. Since from now on we will live here, we need to make this place clean and organized. You know, not everyone can live in a place that looks like a garbage dump like you."

I said while walking upstairs.

Hearing my remarks, she looked like she got hit with an arrow in her heart with a -uu sound.

"Hey! I am not lazy."

She shouted at me while running to catch me, and seeing her running. I started to run as well.

This is good. It feels like I got a family for the first time in my life.

With that playing tag game, I got my falna, and my life in Hestia Familia officially began.
