Party Of Two

After training for a few hours ,Holo noticed another person entering the church basement.

Turning to see who the intruder was ,he saw Lady Hestia jump onto the intruder and hug him?

He must be the first child that Lady Hestia was talking about. He had snow white hair that was slightly messy and dirty from dungeon exploration. His blood red eyes shone as he spoke.

"Goddess-Sama ,I'm back from the dungeon."

He spoke gently as he embraced the Lady Hestia.

"Welcome back Bell~!"

She welcomed him back joyfully.

"Oh ,Bell! Today you meet the second member of our familia!"

She hopped off of him and turned to me ,holding Bell's hand ,she dragged him over to me.

He looked shocked and somewhat excited. I didn't understand him. He walked closer with a wide smile on his face.

"Hey there! My name's Bell Cranel ,what's yours?"

He introduced himself with a friendly tone.

"Holo. My name is Holo."

I stated my name ,then I continued training with my nail. After a while ,I felt a little exausted. So I stopped training and went to sleep.

.....

In my dreams ,I saw some sort of bug with a nail. He was practicing three different nail arts. One I was familiar with ,Dash Slash. Two unfamiliar nail arts as well.

I started to practice all three of the nail arts ,although not as fluidly as the small bug. I was engrossed with perfecting my arts.

After an hour ,I felt like I had ingrained the three nail arts into my body. I could use the power of nail arts with just half a second of charge time.

I also learned the name of the other two nail arts as well as the bug who taught me them. The nail arts were cyclone slash and great slash.

The bug who showed me these arts was called the great nailsage. Apparently ,he invented these nail arts.

After learning all my nail arts thoroughly ,I woke up from the dream with my nail in hand. Getting up ,I saw Lady Hestia and Bell in the bed asleep still.

After tidying myself a little ,I went outside to find that the sun hadn't even risen yet. Practicing with my nail some more ,I continued to absorb the nail arts into my regular combat style.

After an hour of training ,the sun had risen and Bell exited the church fully geared up.

"Bell. Dungeon?"

I asked him if he was heading to the dungeon. He replied with a friendly smile.

"Yeah ,did you wanna come along with me Holo?"

"Sure. Together it is."

Responding to his question ,I followed him into the dungeon. We went through the first floor after slaying a few goblins.

I was able to test my combat abilities ,and it seems that my blade never misses as long as my target is within a certain range.

That 'range' extends a few feet in front of whichever direction I'm facing. Although not much ,I believe my range will increase at some point.
