After a bit of effort, I recovered enough to move my body.
"Thanks for helping me."
"Are you feeling better now?"
"Better than I was a moment ago."
After drinking some potion, I felt fine again in no time.
"Still, you should rest a little more..."
"I'm fine. This happened because I used magic and all that."
"Hmm..."
Bell wore a somewhat uneasy expression.
"I may look like this, but I'm still LV.5. I'm a blacksmith, sure, but I'm pretty sturdy, so I'll be fine."
"Hmm... Yes. Then please be careful on your way back!"
"Yeah. Come find me later and I'll help you out a bit."
"Yes!"
I staggered out of the Dungeon.
Several hours later, Bell Cranel emerged from the Dungeon carrying a bag full of magic stones.
"Good grief... Bell! Did you go down more than ten floors again?!"
"Ahaha... I'm heading out now!!!"
"Beeell!!!"
After quickly exchanging his magic stones for valis, Bell headed to the shabby old church that felt full of the goddess's affection.
"Bell-kun~~~!!!"
As expected, when he returned to the church, the goddess Hestia, with her black twin tails, welcomed Bell warmly.
"I'm home, Lady Hestia."
"Will you update your Status right away today too?"
"Yes!"
And, as always, she updated the [Falna] engraved on his back.

"Ahaha..."
After leaving the Dungeon, I arrived home.
As I flopped down on the sofa, my eyes started to close almost immediately.
"Bellf."
"...When did you get here?"
I tried to close my eyes and fall asleep right there, but then Aiz's voice reached me.
When I forced my eyes open, I could see Aiz coming out of the room.
"About an hour ago."
"...You've been waiting a while. So why did you come looking for me?"
"Finn says the expedition leaves in three weeks."
"...Tell him I'll participate."
I was curious how far Caladbolg would go anyway, so I might as well join this time.
"Then... I'm going to sleep a bit..."
After saying I'd take part, I couldn't resist the wave of sleep crashing over me, and I fell asleep right there.
"..."
And the next day,
"..."
I found Aiz asleep beside me.
"Why didn't she go back?"
