For the past days I've been training myself to the bone and sparing with Ais.
Going to the dungeon in the morning letting bell get beaten up by Ais, get the sword from Hestia, kill some monsters and then go to train with Ais.
For 3 days until is told me that she had to an expedition to the 59th! Floor! These guys must be crazy why go deeper? it's like they just want to die.
I truly hope that monsters there just get stronger and not weirdly disgusting that can create time paradoxes, like in the between.
I guess they want to get stronger and all that, but shy get stronger if the gods are right beside you.
'They wouldn't just let humans die... right?' though they might not even care about humans in the first place.
I've been trying to search what are 'gods' looking around in the library section of the guild.
And they seem to just be 'all doing' gods that came here some time really far back and gave their blessing to mortals saying that if they go to the dungeon and kill monsters, they can become stronger.
And those gods descend from 'heaven' itself, where the gods reside, coming from the sky with a ray of light.
Also, that they kind of seal their power? For some reason, and that gods can't enter the dungeon or the dungeon starts throwing extremely strong creatures at them.
'Almost as if trying to kill them...' but I read that various gods HAVE indeed died before, outside the dungeon.
'But they don't die when they are killed?' while their body is still within mortal realm, their 'souls' are still godly so they just return to heaven for a thousand years or something.
There are various instances where high leveled mortals kill gods, even some of the writers put theories that past level 10 is the realm of gods.
But not a single human was able to reach that level, but there is a story that the single human to reach level 9 was the 'hero' that could take on the dragon that supposedly is at the bottom of the dungeon.
I think that hero guy could fight 'serious' Karen in her glory days.

Any ways
On the first day I just trained [swordsmanship] and [Beli ma] with Ais, trying to deflect and counter more, making excessive use of [eye of the tigger], [sword circulation] and [with interest], It should hurt your brain multiplying learning speed, deflecting consciously and circulating bent through my sword at the same time, but with how high my mind is I didn't have any problems.
[+1 Str, +1End, +1Knt, +1Bdy]
[Swordsmanship has reached level 8! +1Str]
[Beli ma has reached level 7,8! +2Sta]
the second day I managed to level up [dupdomancy] to level 10 by pulling the same move I did to the first minotaur I killed over and over on some monster parties, and I did a little experiment by having Ais throw the sword (as she is physically stronger), which she didn't know and threw it like throwing a stick, so the sword started spinning in the air basically making it a disk of death, I used [mass-splitting] on it and it was just a slaughter. I named the move [destruction disk] and [sword rain] (help)
[+1End, +1Knt, +1Bdy]
[Dupdomancy has reached level 9,10!
60pounds,60 minutes...
Please chose an ability:
Shaping: 1 Bent.
Allow the user to add mass to an object thus changing its size and shape.
Multi-split: 1 Bent
Copy multiple different objects simultaneously. Useful for creating thing that require multiple moving parts.
Temperature control: 1 Bent.
Copied matter can be raised or lowered in temperature equal to the skill duration. (60minutes=60 degrees; 60 minutes =-60 degrees)
Speed control: 1Bent.
Can control the speed exerted to a copied object. Can be multiplied by duration/10. (60/10=6 times the speed)
^From 'Magic'
Gradual split: 1Bent.
Split mass is created at a rate determined by the user.
Mutations:
Pump you up: 1Bent.
Muscle mass is subtly duplicated, increasing it by End% for the duration of the skill. Will increase user's weight.
Shiva:
Create semi-permanent extra body parts/limbs at will, decreasing maximum stability by 3 for each one. The limbs are dismissible and lost stability will recover after 24 hours.
Big brain Time: 1 Bent.
Multiplies bio electricity in the body by Mnd% for skill duration/10, sending more waves to the brain receivers thus increasing thinking speed and reflexes
^From 'Magic'.]
After literal hours of debating what should I chose I ended up with [speed control] though not as useful as [shifting] it can be used without mass and I can use it with my new move.
The third day I focused on [swordsmanship] but could only level it up once.
[+1 Str, +1 End]
[swordsmanship has reached level 9! +Str]

And now we are in front of the entrance of the dungeon.
They were going to a dangerous expedition, I asked Ais if I could join until the 18th floor and she said that technically I can't join but I can 'follow'
"...we will group up in the 18th floor and from there to the floor no one's ever seen on. The 59th floor!" and with that Finn finally ends his speech.
'Finally, we can go, I am very interested to see this "Rivira" town' for what ais told me it's like a safe floor that is very pretty and things like that.
And obviously since it's a dangerous travel I filled my bent last night in the red-light district and even some housewives that heard that I can give pleasure with just a touch.
They only gave me 1 or 2 bent but it's appreciated another thing is that my warp levels are at tipping point, which means that some more kills and I'll be at break 2 or level 2.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>[10 minutes later] <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
We were in the 9th floor just passing by, nothing to do 'cause the guys at the front take care of everything.
'This got boring after 5 minutes, just walking slowly until we reach the destination' as I was thinking that some people stop a the side, including ais.
"There was a minotaur in this floor, and not your normal minotaur it was crazy, like the definition of berserker" the guy in the floor says, seems like he injured his foot.
"There was this kid that was fighting it, he... had ehh.. white hair! And there was a pallum by his side" the other guy says, he had a nasty gash on his midsection, I can't but feel this guy 'remembers me of that time where I had to hold my stomach in place while duping my own blood in order to not die' pretty funny situation.
As soon as the guy said with hair ais ran off to find him I suppose.
The others ran after her leaving me with Finn.
"You are not going to go help him?" he says
"We might be on the same Familia but its none of my business, will you go help him?" I say looking at him.
"We might not know each other but seems like Ais cares for him, and as her friend I can't let him die right? I bet that even you have someone you care for" he says while walking to where everyone went.
"Why would I care for-" suddenly I think of Baroke , Learner, Nadia for some reason?, and Jinnei.
I suddenly realize what he is talking about, it was that tingling feeling in the back of my mind that I always felt every time they felt sad or kinda depressed.
Like seeing that sadomasochistic bitch feel down was really strange, like her! the princess that turned into a whore genuinely feeling bad for something and not acting all crazy.
I look at his receding back and think 'this guy is too good to be this strong'
I follow along to where Bell is, I guess that he is important to Hestia as well, if he suddenly dies shell probably cry her eyes out and bothering me to not leave her or something related to not dying as I'm her only 'son' now.
Besides I don't really hate the kid reminds me of me way back in my village until some dudes came and destroyed it.
Yeah, not pretty memories but memories none the less.

This chapter was Epic.
And sorry guys but my naming sense is terrible and I didn't want to disrespect DBZ fans by naming it [destructo disk] or something along those lines so [disk of destruction] it is until I get a revelation and come up with a better name.
OH, and very important things to know is that body stats compared to the danmachi world are
15=normal human or lvl1
20-29=lvl2
30-39=lvl3
40-49=lvl4
And so on...
which means that Ais it's at least 3 times stronger than Calvin.
Which in turns means that focken ottar is stronger (physically) than Calvin before the stat wipe he got at the 4th dimension. 0_o
Anyways that's my rant today I hope you liked the chapter and see you in the next one bye :D
