Is it wrong to try to meet someone in a dungeon?

Now, allow me to move on to the thank-you remarks.

To editor Kotaki-sama, chief editor Kitamura who joined the manuscript team this time, and Yasuda Suzuhito-sensei who created the beautiful illustrations for this book, I am very grateful for your great help and would like to take this opportunity to express my thanks to all those involved. And to all the readers, I sincerely thank you for taking the time to pick up this book.

Episode 11 is also fortunate to have a limited edition CD Drama (Editor's note: this is a Japanese version only), and we sincerely thank all the staff and voice actors.

The author originally planned to continue the third part after the "Heretical Child" arc, but while writing this volume, I changed my mind and felt it would be better to conclude it here, perhaps for a more elegant ending. Also, because the "Heretical Child" arc exceeded my original plan, taking up three volumes…

Therefore, the next episode will begin a new chapter, and the story is scheduled to return to the dungeon raiding part. We hope readers will find it interesting to continue reading.

Thank you for reading this far, goodbye.

Volume 11 Appendix: Goddess's Intermission

LV.3

"Wow~ Oh..."

Hestia stared in astonishment at the boy's back, which showed a dramatic increase in his ability stats.

On the day of the "Heretics (Zenos)" rescue operation, before everyone was about to head from headquarters to "Daedalus Road," the entire Hestia Familia gathered around the goddess in the evening to update their [Ability Values]. Welf and the others groaned because their ability parameters had increased by only a few points; in contrast, the boy's growth was indeed outstanding.

"Bell, remember that battle you had with those hunters?"

"Ah, yes, yes... I guess so."

Bell mumbled incoherently as he excitedly began to dress; Hestia paid him little attention, her head bowed as she looked at the update sheet transcribed in Koine. The last update was about a week ago—she couldn't bring herself to do it when she was still reprimanded by the city's disappointment—in the meantime, Bell had taken on a mandatory mission to subdue the heretics, then engaged in battle with the Hunters (Dix) and their group, followed by a chase with the out-of-control dragon girl (Winnie); he had been on a relentless spree, experiencing various life-or-death battles. It wasn't hard to understand why his stats, which hadn't been updated in so long, had increased so dramatically.

(But is it not yet at the point where it can be upgraded...?)

LV.3 is more difficult than LV.2, and LV.4 is more difficult than LV.3. The higher the rank, the higher the quality and quantity of high-level [experience points] required. Judging from the upward trend of Bell's ability parameters, Hestia originally held a sliver of hope that she might be able to level up, but it seems that it won't be that easy.

"...Bell, I'm sorry, it seems I'm still going to be a burden to you."

"...I don't know if I can say it's alright, but I'm fine, God, I will do my best."

Hestia would normally be unhappy about such extraordinary growth, but this time it made her feel much more at ease.

However, it is still not reliable enough to deal with the Loki Familia.

Hestia, sitting in a chair, said dejectedly. Bell, who was standing and getting dressed, smiled at her.

Bell accepted the replacement paper and returned to the living room where his companions were waiting; Hestia watched him leave and then stood up as well.

"Whenever that child grows up, I always complain, and when they don't meet my expectations, I feel regretful. I guess I'm too selfish... Fine! I also need to do my best to support those children!"

The goddess was unaware that, in just one night, the boy's [ability value] would break through its limit once again.

Volume 11 includes a bonus radio drama, "Dream Party".

☆☆☆The film opens with Bell's dream, the reason for which will be explained later☆☆☆

Ais: "Bell... Bell..."

<After Ais called out to him, Bell finally woke up.>

Ais: "Wake up... Belle..."

Belle: "Ais...Miss!? Strange, this is...a flower garden?!"

Ais: "Hmm...isn't it beautiful?"

Bell: "While...while it is indeed beautiful, shouldn't we be training in Orario? Why are we here?"

Ais: "We're here... for a picnic..."

Bell: "A picnic?"

Ais: "Hmm...(⋈◍＞◡＜◍). ✧♡/A date just for the two of us♪"

Belle: "∑(/ﾟДﾟ)/ A date?!"

[I don't recall anything like this happening. Come to think of it, Miss Ais's been smiling the whole time, so cute... Wait, something feels off.]

Ais: "∑( ╹ ω ╹ )/ What's wrong with you, Belle?"

Belle: ∑(/ﾟДﾟ)/Ahhhhh! You're too close! Please move a little further away!!

Ais: "＼(>д<)／ No way, I want to stay with Belle."

Bell: '∑(=ﾟωﾟ=;)/Huh?'

Ais: "(ﾉд-｡)/ I've been waiting all this time, but Belle, you never come after me. I'm so lonely."

(Blank: Hey! Hey! Ais, is this some kind of moral compass to entice Bell to push you down?)

[This is too suspicious, absolutely too suspicious! Miss Ais would never say such a thing! So...could it be...?]

Bell: "Seriously... am I... dreaming?"

Ais: "No, I'm not dreaming. ( ･ ω < )/Sparkling♪"

Ah, so this really is a dream. But why is this happening?

[I remember I went to training as Ais had asked, just like before.]

Aisi『(っ･ω･)っ/touch. 』

(Blank: This is definitely another example of the lap pillow's lack of restraint.)

Then, just like before, he got a severe beating, and then it was time for a break.

Aisi『(っ･ω･)っ/touch. 』

It seems... my injuries were too severe, so I drank a healing potion.

Aisi『(っ･ω･)っ/touch. 』

After that, I had absolutely no clue what to do...

Bell: "Hey, Miss Ais, what are you doing?"

Ais is stroking your head.

Belle: "I already know that, I'm just curious why you stroked my head?"

Ais: "(இдஇ; )/ Is it not allowed?"

Bell: "It's not that it's impossible, although I'm also very happy, but it still feels a bit strange."

[But since it's a dream, it's understandable to say or do things to Miss Ais... Ah, no, no, even in a dream, it would be very bad to do something strange to Miss Ais.]

Bell: "Please...please stop touching me, Miss Ais."

Ais: "Call me Sister Ais!"

Bell: ∑( ￣д￣ )/Uh! ? 』

Ais: "If you don't call me 'Ais-neechan' (older sister Ais), I won't stand for it!"

Bell calls...Miss Ais...older sister!? Impossible...absolutely impossible!

Ais: "If you don't call out, I'm going to hug you and never let go!"

Belle: "∑( ﾟДﾟ)/ Ugh! ? Don't come any closer with your arms outstretched, okay... okay, I give up!"

[This is clearly in my dream, so why is Miss Ais being so enthusiastic?]

Ais: "Why did you call so quickly!"

Belle: "A...Ais...Sister...Big sister!" (whispering)

Ais: "I can't hear you! Say it again!"

Belle: "Sister Ais!" (whispering)

Ais: "Say it again!"

Belle: "Sister Ais!"

Ais: "Scream a few more times!"

Belle: "Sister Ais!" (loudly)

Ais: "(＾ω＾)/ Hehehe♪ What's up, Bell-kun?"

[Bell-kun... you're not Miss Eina.]

Ais: "Ugh~ Stop thinking about other women!"

Ah...so cute! Even though it's cute, it's so embarrassing! I'm so pathetic. Wait a minute, so the reason I had this dream was because I wanted to act cute? How could this be?!

Ais: "Bell, don't you like being a younger brother?"

Bell: "No, that's not true."

Ais: "So, Belle, brother♪"

<After being bombarded with such sweet-talking attacks by Ais, Bell couldn't help but fall for Cupid's mischievous arrow.>

Ais: "This time, I'll be the little sister."

Bell: "Miss Ais... wait a minute!"

Ais: "What's wrong, Brother Bell?"

Poor Bale has been hit by an arrow again.

Ais: "I like you the most, Bell-nii-san♪"

<Being repeatedly teased by Ais, Bell almost evolved into a Zombiemon this time.>

Bell: "(π0π)/No...no, that will definitely kill people, please, please let me wake up!!!"

☆☆☆Thus, Belle's dream comes to an end☆☆☆

What was originally a beautiful dream turned into a nightmare for Bell. If his grandfather, the great god Zeus, knew this, he would definitely say: "Bell, you should have pushed her away when you needed to, otherwise you'll never be the king of the harem, and you'll never be a hero!" Well, jokes aside, after experiencing this nightmare, Bell finally woke up.

Ais: "Ah... I'm finally awake."

Bell: "Ais... Miss!? Is this the normal Miss Ais?"

Ais: "Hmm... I think... I guess so."

[This atmosphere...it's definitely Miss Ais as usual. This is wonderful, it's real. The soft touch from the back of my head feels incredibly real too.]

Belle: "∑( ﾟДﾟ)/ Uh!!? A lap pillow!? Here we go again?"

Ais: "Ah, jumping up suddenly is very dangerous."

Bell: "I'm sorry, I'm just a little flattered."

[Being forced to use my lap as a pillow has unknowingly become a routine, I'm almost too embarrassed to show my face in public! Strange, Miss Ais seemed to have secretly hidden her hands behind her back just now, could it be...]

Bell: "By the way, did you just pat my head?"

Ais, whose weakness had been exposed by Bell, appeared somewhat at a loss.

Bell: "Miss Ais?"

Ais: "(*ﾉωﾉ)/ No...nothing like that...it's nothing."

[So there really was touching, huh? Could it be that my dream about that kind of thing is because of it? Although that's what I'm thinking...]

Ais: "What's wrong?"

Belle: "N-nothing, it's nothing, Sister Ais."

Ais: "Sister Ais?"
