DanmachiMC - Chapter 26: Collaboration with the Hephaestus Familia

"Bell, how many Valis did you sell those daggers for?"

Suppressing her worries about Eina, Hestia shifted her focus to the final sale price. She also wanted to ask about how the transaction was handled. Though she didn’t fully understand the inner workings of the Guild, she still had more experience than Bell, enough to form a rough judgment on the process.

"Each dagger was bought for 100,000 Valis. I kept 20 for myself, and sold the remaining 264. That came out to a total of 26...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 25: The Guild Is a Big Sieve

"But those were just Goblin daggers... you didn’t take them to the Guild, did you?"

Hestia spoke with a lighthearted smile. From her perspective, there was no way Bell would have sold something like that to the Guild. Once anything ended up in their hands, it wouldn’t be long before the gods caught wind of it. But Bell was careful and cautious—he’d never do something so reckless.

And under normal circumstances, she would’ve been right. Anyone with even a bit of experienc...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 24: Astonishing Number of Drop Items

"Goddess-sama, there's no need to worry about that right now. I don’t think we’re at that point yet. Leveling up is important, sure—but I don’t want to take the path where everyone notices. I’d rather level up quietly, out of sight. Even if I do level up, I think it’s best to rely on my own strength."

Bell had made that decision from the start. If he ever needed to hide his level, it wouldn’t be to exaggerate it—he would underreport it.

There was also the matter of...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 23: Rapid Growth

"Well, let's not talk about anything else for now, Bell. Let's update your stats."

Having a God update your status is a crucial step. Updating a Familia member's status provides a clearer picture of their growth in strength. Naturally, it's also a necessary means of getting stronger. The most important part is the update that comes with leveling up.

If an Adventurer has gained enough experience to level up but doesn't have their status updated by their Familia God, their level wil...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 22: Bell-kun Really Is a Good Kid

With the day’s haul in hand, Bell returned to the ruined church. The moment he saw someone standing outside, he picked up his pace and ran over.

"Bell!"

Waiting for him, of course, was Hestia, who had been worrying nonstop. Ever since Bell left that morning, she had been fretting at home—this was her child’s first time entering the Dungeon, and she’d been terrified something might happen. Seeing him return safe and sound, her anxiety finally eased.

Relieved, she ran ...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 21: The Overtime Appraiser

Orario’s currency typically comes in denominations of 100, 1,000, and 10,000 Valis, each corresponding to different sizes of gold coins.

Bell sold all his Goblin daggers for a total of 26.4 million Valis. Even so, the Guild still made a considerable profit. A single Goblin dagger only ranks slightly below low-tier weapons, so 100,000 Valis per piece was already a bargain. Once recycled, they could easily sell for 150,000 Valis apiece.

Eina had explained this to Bell as well, and...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 20: Eina's Warning

‘It seems this anomaly is tied solely to Bell-kun. If anyone else were to find out, it would definitely attract the attention of the gods. There’s a secret hidden within Bell—something that sets him apart. But the boy doesn’t seem to realize it himself. From now on, I’ll need to be even more careful. I can’t let anyone discover his secret.’

Eina had no intention of revealing this to any god. Being entrusted with a secret meant that she had earned Bell’s trust, and she wa...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 19: Strange Phenomenon

‘Spatial magic—and not just that, but storage magic too. Spatial magic alone is practically unheard of, and storage-type spatial magic is even rarer than rare. If Loki-sama found out about this, she’d probably go absolutely insane with excitement.’

Eina could practically picture it—Loki losing her mind. Everyone in Orario knew that every time the Loki Familia went on an expedition, they’d end up giving up simply because they couldn’t carry everything back. In other words, ...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 18: Eina's Shock

Bell arrived at the Guild just before sunset.

At this time of day, with the sun dipping below the horizon, the adventurers still toiling in the Dungeon hadn’t returned yet, while those working on the upper floors had already come back long ago. Because of this timing, the Guild was currently quiet, having just passed its busiest period.

The moment he stepped inside, Bell spotted Miss Eina sitting at the reception desk. His luck was pretty good—he didn’t have to deal with an ...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 17: First Floor Accumulation

‘As expected.’

A faint smile tugged at Bell's lips. This time, instead of shifting his weight to the left, he’d shifted it diagonally back and left. The goblin’s short sword missed him entirely, not even brushing his clothes.

Before the goblin could recover its stance, Bell’s prepared blade swept across its throat. It wasn’t a clean decapitation, but the wound was fatal nonetheless.

All five goblins had been eliminated.

Bell now had five goblin daggers and ...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 16: First Battle

'First, I need to cut off the extra targets completely.'

Since this was his first time fighting multiple goblins alone, Bell knew it was important to understand their behavior in one-on-one combat. He didn’t consider slashing a goblin’s throat in a single strike to be a sign of his own strength. If the weapon was sharp enough, any monster would fall to a hit on a vital point. That wasn’t his power—it was the weapon’s.

He immediately charged at the scattered goblins.

DanmachiMC - Chapter 15: Rapid Adaptation

Breaking past the Lv. 1 stage was Bell’s current goal. Achieving it would take time—not just to build experience and technique, but to raise his basic stats across the board.

He wasn’t worried about his growth rate. Even before receiving a Falna, his physical abilities had been improving at a remarkable pace. His stamina and agility had grown far faster than average. Otherwise, there’s no way he could have made it to Orario on foot in under a month.

Now that he had a Falna...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 14: Entering the Dungeon

After more than ten days of nonstop travel, this was the first time Bell didn’t have to wake up early—he could just keep sleeping.

Morning sunlight poured into the room, the bright rays hitting his face directly. The orange-yellow glow made it hard to keep his eyes shut, and he instinctively raised his hand to block it. But instead of open air, he felt something soft restraining him.

That made Bell’s mind instantly flash with a giant question mark.

DanmachiMC - Chapter 13: Good Night on the First Day

‘So the Dungeon really is a womb that spawns monsters. That explains why they can emerge straight from the walls. But the fact that this womb is under the control of the Black Dragon... that part is unexpected.’

‘No wonder Orario was built atop the Dungeon. Besides suppressing the birth of monsters, the city was probably also meant to seize the Dungeon’s core once the Black Dragon is defeated. As long as the core is secured, taking down the Black Dragon wouldn’t mean the Dunge...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 12: The Man-Eating Dungeon

In the forgotten ruins, they quickly found shelter—a crumbling church that still had a roof to keep out the wind and rain. Inside, the pews used for worship were still mostly intact. Though dusty and worn, they could pick through and salvage a fair number of usable items.

There was also a confessional inside the church. Aside from being thick with dust, it surprisingly housed a decently preserved sofa and a bed. The presence of a bed in a confessional was puzzling—no matter how they...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 11: Temporary Foothold

After becoming the god of a Familia, Hestia was immediately kicked out by Hephaestus—who, to be fair, had a solid reason.

“You've already established your own Familia, so you can't keep living here with me. As the head of a Familia, you should at least act the part of a god.”

Even with tears brimming in her eyes, Hestia had no choice but to leave. She couldn’t drag her child along and keep freeloading. The first thing any Familia needed was a proper place to settle. If eve...

'Falna'—the blessing granted by the gods to the mortals of the lower world. It turns one’s abilities into quantifiable data, allowing them to grow stronger through accumulated experience. As they continue to evolve, unique skills may emerge, unlocking new and unforeseen possibilities.

For any new Adventurer, this ceremony is vital. It essentially transforms one’s innate talent into data—potentially giving rise to extraordinary abilities. Those born with such gifts are often give...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 9: Hestia’s First Familia Member

'This is my future Familia member!'

Eyes sparkling, Hestia was practically about to hijack the conversation and make it all about herself. But since this was Hephaestus’s shop, and the child had come specifically to see Hephaestus, it wouldn’t be right for her to jump in. She held herself back, watching carefully from the side.

'The hood’s unnecessary. I can’t even see the child’s face.'

At just 140 centimeters tall, Hestia couldn’t see the face hidden beneath th...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 8: Facing Hephaestus’s Questions

After leaving the Guild, Bell cautiously asked nearby shopkeepers for directions to Lady Hephaestus’s store. He was fairly certain that Lady Hestia, who was still slacking off at this hour, had holed up there—so this time, he planned to strike directly.

While asking around, he got more than a few strange looks. Bell could practically hear what most of those eyes were saying: "What’s a broke kid like you thinking?"

After all, Hephaestus was the Goddess of the Forge, famed for...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 7: Hestia’s Bold Move

After leaving the Guild, Bell felt a little conflicted.

He had thought that entering Orario and joining the Guild would come with a difficult choice between two paths—but now it turned out the dilemma had only existed in his imagination.

"The Hestia Familia I wanted to join… even the goddess herself is slacking off. This is a problem. I thought I’d be early, but it turns out I was too early."

Since he wasn’t sure when things would officially start, Bell had simply ai...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 6: Hestia Is Still Slacking Off

The Guild was the largest organization in Orario, overseeing the entire city's operations. It managed both the adventurers and the Dungeon, and also handled the trade of magic stones and drop items. Because of this, everyone in Orario had to deal with the Guild at some point, and for new adventurers, the first step upon arriving in the city was to register with them.

For newcomers, registering at the Guild as early as possible was essential—followed by finding a Familia to join.

DanmachiMC - Chapter 5: Orario's Rules of Survival

Bell followed the transport convoy into Orario.

The team entered without issue, but Bell was suddenly stopped.

“Hold it.”

Just as he was about to step through the gate, a soldier standing guard leveled his long spear at him. Clad in heavy armor and gripping a spear that gleamed with silver light, the guard radiated an overwhelming presence that made Bell’s hair stand on end.

Even with all the experience he’d gained on the road, Bell could instinctively tell tha...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 4: The Only Destination

Choosing a Familia was a real headache. If he joined the “Loki Familia,” his early growth would be rapid, and he’d gain access to a wealth of resources. The downside? It would immediately expose his unique skill—Four-Dimensional Space.

On the other hand, if he chose the “Hestia Familia,” getting help in the early stages was out of the question. Everything would have to be built from scratch. The upside? He’d have an adorable, affectionate goddess by his side and could keep...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 3: The Center of the World, "Orario"

Bell didn’t slow down for even a moment, heading straight in the direction of Orario.

One thing struck him as odd: he’d been prepared to encounter monsters along the way, but hadn’t seen even a single one—not even a monster’s leg.

Still, that wasn’t a bad thing. If anything, it let him travel much faster.

After crossing the plains and hills, he reached a main road.

Bell noticed faint wheel tracks on the ground. They weren’t fresh, suggesting that a carria...

DanmachiMC - Chapter 2: Caution and Prudence

Bell had set out at dawn, and by the time the sun was nearly down, he finally left the forest and stepped into the open plains and rolling hills.

“Phew… I really thought I’d end up spending the night in that forest.”

To be honest, if he had been any later, Bell wouldn’t have risked staying in the forest overnight.

Back in the civilized world he used to know, camping might have been normal—but only because those campsites were relatively safe. That kind of camping...

“Don’t be so nervous, you idiot disciple.” Scáthach’s usual calm tone carried a trace of indulgence. “There’s nothing wrong with this garden. It’s just that when you created these things, you unconsciously gave them qualities they originally didn’t possess.”

Moria's pupils shrank into tiny pinpoints, and the smile on his face froze.

It was a scene of overwhelming visual impact for him.

As the user of the ability, he knew better than anyone just how sturdy and defensive the Black Box was.

But that hand... had actually pierced right through it, as easily as tearing apart a cardboard box.

There wasn’t even any Armament Haki wrapped around it.

It was pure brute strength!

Moria could hardly believe his eyes.
