When Wayne reached church from his dungeon raid on the seventh floor, he returned to see a pleasant surprise.

It was just like any other normal day, and he was returning from the dungeon raid.

Normally, Hestia wouldn't be at church at this hour of the day; however, today, she had something else on her mind.

/CRACK/ /HUG/

"Huh?"

The moment Wayne opened the door, he suddenly got hugged.

Well, he could dodge that, but he didn't since he knew it was Hestia, but that was for another day.

"Welcome home, Wayne-kun."

"Ah, thank you Kami-sama. But, did something happen?"

Wayne asked, hugging Hestia at the same time.

In this period of a month, their relationship got closer.

You can say they are like a real family right now, and although Wayne was still not accustomed to touching other people and being too close to them, Hestia didn't mind and always behaved clingily.

"Humph, does something need to happen for me to hug you?"

Hestia said while sulking.

"Haha, well, it is not like that. It is just that you are early today, so I thought something might have happened. Last week, you were working hard and came home at late hours. Did you finish your business?"

Wayne asked.

Just like he said, for the past week, Hestia has been coming home quite late, and they didn't have too much time to spend together since both Hestia and Wayne would be tired after their work.

"You can say that. Come inside, and I want to show you something."

She said and started pulling Wayne from his hands with a very excited expression.

"Okay, okay. Kami-sama, please walk slowly."

"Come on, walk fast, Wayne-kun."

With that, they went to the room under the church, and when they reached it, there was a pretty good surprise.

"Huh? Kami-sama don't tell me-"

"Fufu, how is it? Do you like it?"

When they reached there, Wayne saw two blades standing on the bed.

However, know that just seeing two blades wouldn't surprise Wayne.

"Kami-sama, don't tell me you went to work with Hephaestus?"

"Huh? How did you know?"

Those blades there were engravings on each of them.

/SCHLINK/

The two blades had different colors.

The first one had metallic white color with black engravings on it, while the second one had black color with crimson engravings on it.

The blades were curved, but they were not that long to be called a 'katana,' and their width was not thick either.

In a sense, the blades resemble the sword Ais Wallenstein uses, "Desperate", but they have a more curved structure.

"Hey, Wayne-kun. How did you know? Don't tell me you saw me working in the Hephaestus' workshop."

Suddenly Hestia got panicked and started questioning Wayne.

"Wait Kami-sama, calm down. Don't you see the Hephaestus name on the blades? That means you got those blades from Hephaestus-sama; however, we don't have that much money. That means you went to her to ask for a favor, didn't you? Since you always talked about her and how she behaved in heaven."

Wayne said while inspecting the blades.

'Well, I can't say I saw those engravings on the anime, can I? And, it is not like I am lying either. Kami-sama really likes talking about Hephaestus-sama.'

"Sigh, you are right. These blades are made by Hephaestus, the god of the forge itself. So, how is it?"

Hestia asked.

"I don't know. It feels like any other normal blade?"

Wayne said while swinging blades up and down.

"Well, it is pretty normal. She said those swords would grow with the adventurer who binds them, and they will be only effective at the hands of their master. To make them your weapons, you need to put your blood on them, and this will be it."

Hestia started explaining, and the moment Wayne heard that he got very excited.

'Finally, a good weapon. I was looking for a good sword. Previous ones were always breaking in the dungeon, and they were expensive as hell as well.'

He thought, and with a smile, he cut his hand with one of his blades flying and fed his blood to his new swords.

The moment he fed his blood to the swords, the engravings on them suddenly started shining, and Wayne started feeling the connection forming between his swords and his consciousness.

However, it was different from how he formed a connection with his magic.

This time, it feels like these swords are alive and breathing. It feels like they have their own consciousness and are living beings.

And they have desires as well.

The moment connection is formed, Wayne suddenly starts feeling a huge excitement and a huge desire to fight.

To try his swords at the same time, try his own limits.

"Ah, it feels like these swords are alive, Kami-sama. This feeling, it is really surreal."

Wayne said with amazement in his voice.

"Well, that was what Hephaestus said as well. So, how is it? Did you like my present?"

Hestia said while coming closer to Wayne.

"They look really beautiful, as well as sharp. It feels like I can cut everything as long as these swords are with me. Thank you, Kami-sama. I will try harder in the future to pay this debt off."

Wayne said while bowing his head a bit.

"Huh? How did you know about the debt?"

"Kami-sama, I am not dumb. There is no way we could buy those swords with the money we had on ourselves. These swords are made by the god of the forge, Hephaestus herself. Since there is no way the price of the weapons made by Hephaestus would be low, that means you bought them with debt."

Wayne explained his reasoning.

"Sigh, Wayne-kun. Sometimes I think you are a bit smart for your own good. Yes, you are right. Right now, we are in debt since those swords are made by Hephaestus. But you don't need to worry. I will pay it off myself, so you don't need to think about it."

Although Hestia said that with a confident expression, Wayne easily understood she was putting up a front and trying her best to keep her dignity as his goddess.

Seeing this cute attempt, he didn't want to bother her and decided to ignore the debt for now and focus on his goals.

"Then, Kami-sama. Did Hephaestus-sama say the names of these swords?"

Wayne asked since keep calling them as swords started bothering him.

"Ah, sorry, I forgot to say that. She said their name was 'Day and Night'."

"I see. So, she named them like that. Well, I will respect her choice then."

Just like that, Wayne got his partners he would use for the rest of his life…
