A Mistaken Encounter: The Hero of the World

"OK, all right!"

"It's settled then." Serven waved to Aina and left the guild.

The adventurers of the entire Adventurer's Guild were immediately excited.

"Has little sister Aegina also fallen?"

"Wow, my half-elf sister!"

"My goddess! I feel like I will never love again... I wonder if Aegina will need lipstick by then. This way, when I kiss Odyssey, I can feel like a participant..."

"You are truly the king of dog lickers!"

"As long as I can see her happy smile, I will be relieved. As long as she can be happy, let alone kissing, it doesn't matter if they check in and I pay for the room!!"

"..."

"Se-wen!"

Tiona's vibrant and unique accent.

"What's the matter, Diona?"

"Someone from Hephaestus's family is looking for you outside." Tiona followed Serven with a smile, "Do you have a new weapon?"

“…Yes, it’s a short sword.”

Serven's heartbeat slowed down for a beat, and he almost blurted out the words he was about to give to Ais.

Diona and Serven walked side by side, intertwining their fingers behind their backs. "Congratulations! I want to forge a new weapon, too..."

"Well...if you're willing to wait, I'll ask the lonely king of the labyrinth, Udaios, to lend me his great sword as material next time."

"No need." Diona walked in front of Serven and faced Serven, with her hands behind her back, showing a childlike innocent smile. "I'm so happy now."

"... As long as Serven is willing to say so, that's enough."

So well behaved.

Serven's heart was touched by Diona's considerate look.

The girl's love is like an unpredictable cloud. One moment it is full of joy and happiness, and the next second it is covered with dark clouds and she is worried and anxious.

Diona turned around and lowered her head, looking at me nervously, "Serven, it's not that I don't like you, I just don't want to cause you any trouble..."

"sure."

Serven opened his arms towards Diona, and after Diona understood his meaning and threw herself into his arms like a bird returning to the forest, he gently hugged the girl.

"Sure. It's not a big deal. Don't feel any pressure."

Serven truly felt the weight of this girl's feelings in his heart. It weighed heavily on him, causing him to speak much more softly.

"You can rely on me as much as you want..." Serven said this immature sentence while suppressing his shame.

Fortunately, the girl enjoyed it very much.

The gentle whispers were like the humid warm breeze of summer, making the tips of Diona's ears red. The residual heat swept all the way up from her neck, making even the tips of her hair slightly numb.

Tiona's entire face and neck turned red, and the Amazon's unique light bronze skin could not hide the girl's shyness. She said "I'm leaving first" and left Serven's sight in a panic.

Serven blinked, unable to keep up with the rapidly changing girl's love, and watched Diona flee quickly.

"Girls are really too complicated." He couldn't help but sigh.

He arrived at the gate of the Familia, thanked the blacksmith who came to inform him, and then walked to the Hephaestus Familia.

“Is it finished so quickly?”

Seeing Hephaestus and Tsubaki standing at the door of the studio with smiles on their faces, Serven also asked with a smile.

"Take a look for yourself." Hephaestus led Serven into the studio and handed him a dagger.

(ceda) It feels a bit heavy in the hand, the density of the sword should be relatively high.

A simple number "7" is engraved on the hilt of the sword. The overall color is jet black with a slight sense of transparency, and is decorated with long crystals. The grip is carefully wrapped with shiny black leather.

The sword guard is very delicate, shaped like a flat shuriken, with the luster of obsidian. There is a dark crystal at the end of the hilt in the middle of the sword guard.

Further down is the scabbard that wraps the blade, also wrapped in black leather.

choke--!

A heavy voice sounded. Serven drew his sword.

That was the sound produced by an extremely hard and tough material.

Serven held his breath and observed the sword in his right hand.

The blade is very thin, but not as slender as the Sword of Despair. In comparison, this sword is thicker. The blade is also a deep black, but it still presents a slightly transparent feeling, and it feels like you can vaguely see through it.

The sunlight coming in from the window shines into the interior of the sword, and when viewed from different angles, it can be seen that it has a faint golden color.

The sword spine has distinct ridges, and a long raised decoration hangs down from the center of the sword guard along the sword spine.

The sword's edge was even sharper, and no light could be reflected from any angle, as if even the light was cut by it.

This is a somewhat luxurious and very beautiful sword.

Serven carefully put the dagger back into its sheath.

"Don't be so careful, this sword is not that fragile." Hephaestus said.

"Well, it feels a bit like a work of art. It's not bad, right..."

"Yes, it is a sword with the "indestructible attribute"."

"Grateful."

"Have you decided on a name?" Hephaestus asked Serven, folding her arms in front of her.

"I have an idea for now. Do you have any suggestions?"

"This is the tenth dagger I made. Why not call it Dagger No. 10, or Kenjuro!" Chun interrupted excitedly.

Serven raised an eyebrow and looked at the goddess with flaming red hair.

Hephaestus smiled and was about to speak when the eye mask strap suddenly broke and the eye mask covering her right eye fell off.

She was horrified and hurriedly covered her right face, her expression changed drastically.

"Did you see it?" She had a blank expression on her face, and looked over coldly with her left eye, as if she had instantly switched from a human to the identity of a god, looking down at the world indifferently.

The might of the God of Fire created waves, locking onto Serven as if he could capture him at any time.

Serven nodded.

Hephaestus's expression became even colder, but when she saw Serven's indifferent reaction, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. She asked tentatively, her voice trembling, "...Aren't you afraid?"

"...? What's there to be afraid of?"

"Don't you find it scary and disgusting?"

“It’s a little weird, but it’s OK.”

Hephaestus walked in front of Serven with her long legs and slowly lowered her hands that were covering her face. "How about... you... take another look?"

Serven looked at the goddess' face and smiled at her red lips so close to him.

"It's the first time I've seen it, too... I still find it a little strange, but it's also pretty nice."

Hephaestus took two steps back, "Well... it looks good..."

"Yeah." Serven looked at her again without any hesitation. The goddess' right eye was different from that of ordinary people. The fiery red eye was in the shape of "∞", split into two pupils.

"This is the first time I've seen double pupils." Severn was very interested and moved closer to observe carefully, but the goddess put on her blindfold again.

She tossed her red hair left and right, "You are... really weird."

"In Eastern legends, double pupils have always been a sign of saints."

Seeing Hephaestus's suspicious look, Serven nodded seriously.

"Forget it. I'll trust you for once." Hephaestus smiled brightly. "By the way, your weapon cost 2.5 million faris to forge."

"I'll write you an IOU."

"I heard you made a lot of money."

"After all, the time is too short, and there is still a long way to go." Serven shook his head, "Will you collect the magic stones from the floor master?"

"You do have this thing." Hephaestus smiled, "But it has no special value to us, strictly speaking."

"Then I'll have to go into debt." Serven sighed, "I never thought I'd have to live in debt at such a young age."

Hephaestus smiled when she heard this, glanced at this adventurer whom she didn't know well, and was stunned again.

Although I am always impressed by Serven's looks, I really can never get tired of watching him.

Really handsome——

The heart of the God of Forging began to beat faster and faster for a man for the first time in billions of years.

"Hephaestus, I heard that you have been staying here for the past few days... Hmm? Serven-kun is here too!" A petite figure pushed open the door of the studio.

She rushed in quickly and stopped in front of Serven, and the sudden braking caused a rough ride, "Serven-kun, what are you doing here?"

"I asked the goddess Hephaestus to help me forge a weapon."

Hestia blinked and glanced casually at the weapon in Serven's hand, "Are you going to use dual blades?"

She made a starburst air stream slash gesture and looked over at me with stars in her eyes.

"Of course you can, but this is a short sword."

"A sword and a knife are also very handsome." Hestia was still interested and was about to continue speaking -

"My Lord God, I'm back!" Bell said loudly. Hearing the noise in the studio, he slowly poked his head in.

"Welcome back, Bell-kun." Hestia smiled and waved to Bell.

"Welcome back." Chun also said.

“…Brother Serven is here too.”

"Well, please ask Goddess Hephaestus to forge a weapon."

Bell looked at the dagger in Serven's hand, his eyes had turned into stars, and he couldn't move his gaze away with envy.

Hestia sighed.

"Thank you." Serven nodded to Hephaestus and Tsubaki, "Then I'll take my leave now."

"Huh? Are you leaving so soon?" Hestia said in surprise.

"This weapon hasn't been named yet?!" Tsubaki said.

“Let’s call it Night Sky.”

Hephaestus nodded. "【Sword of the Night Sky】, it's not bad."

"Then I'll take my leave."

Until Serven left, Bell's eyes stayed on Serven's new weapon. Although he didn't speak, everyone could see his desire for the new weapon.

"Hephaestus, I want to ask you a favor." Hestia looked at her friend.

"I've found your new place to live. Don't even think about continuing to live here. Besides, you have to pay for the place you live in."

"That's not it." Hestia clasped her hands together, bowed slightly and looked down at Hephaestus, "Can you also help my child make a weapon?"

"Eh? Lord God?!" Bell asked in surprise, but he did not reject it immediately. Instead, he looked at Hephaestus with some expectation.

He really wanted a weapon of his own, and had been longing for it for a long time.

The Goddess of Forge sighed, "You still have to pay. No matter how many decades or hundreds of years it takes, you must pay off this debt."

"Well, I will definitely pay it back." Hestia patted her strong chest.

"Let's take a break today and do it tomorrow. Bell uses a dagger, right?"
