After Ais came back to her seat next to him, Aidan sent her a smile as she also showed a happy expression of signing the contract. Seeing her like this, Aidan understood that the shock she had received a few days prior was already pretty gone.

With this, Aidan saw a few more recruits requesting to be a porter to either Finn or Gareth. Some were confident in themselves, which accounted for most of them also asked the same salary method Ais had received. Unfortunately for them, they were all directly rejected by Finn since they had a difference in potential. ​​

Finally, it was Aidan's turn. He was the one before last. "Aidan." Said Finn as the young silver-haired boy with tanned skin got up and walked towards the front of the room.

"So, what is your request?" The pallum asked as Loki also looked straight at him.

"Just like Ais, I'd like to be your porter until I level up to three. I can also take a ten-year contract, and similarly, I do not want to have tasks to complete each month." He said as he looked Finn straight in the eyes.

With a slight nod, he answered back. "I have no problem having you as my porter when I enter the dungeon." He said, fully aware of his storage card while turning towards Gareth.

"Aidan, a new adventurer, is seven years old and partnered up with Ais Wallenstein. Just like her, he entered the dungeon four times and trained on the fourth floor. He possesses the strength to enter the fifth floor and possesses even more potential than his partner." He said before turning towards Riviera.

"There is no problem with the ten years contract. However, the same problem as Ais is present. As such, I propose to offer double what we offered to Ais." She said as the tomboy goddess nodded at the astonishment of the crowd.

"Alright, here is your contract." Said the captain of the familia before offering the contract to Aidan, who read everything carefully before signing his name.

With a nod to the captain and the goddess, he turned back and walked to the back of the room and sat back next to Ais.

At the same time, the other members looked at the two of them like monsters as they became the new porters of the executives of the familia. Moreover, they would receive a minimum of ten million Valis thanks to their contract. They weren't even ten years old and already made so much money. It showed that their future would indeed be fantastic.

At the end of the ceremony, which ended soon after Aidan's turn, Loki got up as everyone became silent. "I'm glad that you all agreed to sign a contract with this familia. There will be a party for you all at the Hostess of Fertility at seven this evening. See you all later." She said as she nodded to the executives who escorted her out of the room under the watch of the others.

"Let's go." Said Aidan as he immediately left the room with Ais under the fiery eyes of some members who would no doubt try to cheat them out of their money at some point in time. Aidan was even more surprised none wanted to do it right at that moment.

However, he understood right afterwards as each member was somewhat restraining each other, giving the two of them the chance to leave the room immediately. Moreover, with the status of Finn and Riviera's porter, there wouldn't be many people who would dare to do anything to them.

"Ais, we should go and update our status from last time in the dungeon. If I'm right, our stats should enter the 'G' which would allow us to go lower in the dungeon once again." He said as he was walking alongside the girl.

"Yes, it's better to become stronger faster." She said as her small hand tightened into a fist as she remembered the last event in the dungeon.

Nodding, they rapidly made their way to the goddess room, where they knew she would be.

Seeing the two children arriving in front of the door, the guard went and knocked on the door before letting the two youngsters enter the room of the goddess.

As they entered, they saw that the three executives were present in the room as they talked about the recruits. However, they all stopped when they saw them enter the room after the notification of the guards.

"What are you two doing here?" Asked Loki as she adds an amused smile to her face.

"We wanted to update our status." Said Ais expressionlessly.

"I see. Come sit here for a while, we'll soon be done with the meeting, and we had something to tell you as well." Said the goddess as she patted the seat next to her on the sofa.

The goddess then turned back her attention to the three executives as both Aidan and Ais didn't understand what they were talking about but didn't care since it didn't concern them.

A few minutes later, as Aid and Aidan were waiting at the side, their conversation finished as the captain of the familia turned towards both of the younger children. "We investigated the man who attacked the two of you, and the guild arrested him. You also got 300 thousand Valis each for arresting him." He said as he took out a pouch full of money and handed it to each of them.

Aidan immediately took out his storage card and put the money inside, and did the same for Ais's after giving it to him for transportation.

"As for me, I got the name of his familia. Let's say that they won't have a good day for a while." Added the goddess as she had a playful smile while looking through the window of the room.

"Right, the two of you came to get your status updated." Said Riviera as she remembered their reason for stopping by. "Do the two of you think of getting down to the fifth to seventh floor?" She asked.

"Yes. The fourth floor is way too easy." Said Aidan along with a nod granted from Ais next to him.

"I see. Well, tomorrow I have some business down to Rivira. Do the two of you want to accompany me? We'll stay there for the night and climb back up the next day." She said as she offered to bring them both to visit the eighteenth floor.

Giving a glance at Ais, Aidan didn't hesitate and immediately nodded. "At what time do we leave?"

"We will be leaving tomorrow morning at six. Be sure to be ready by the gate at that time. Also, don't forget to bring food, water and a tent for sleeping." She concluded as she got up along with the other two.

—-

"Alright, who wants to start?" Asked Loki as she moved from the couch and looked at both children.

"I'll start." Answered Aidan as he stripped off his top and lay down on the table prepared precisely for this.

Not a moment later, he felt a prickling sensation on his back before the goddess tapped his back and allowed him to get up while wearing his top.

Seeing the new stats, which had grown quite a lot and the new skill, Aidan looked up at the goddess, who looked at him with a sly smile. "It seems I did right to contract you both at such a high price." She said, proud of herself.

After looking at his status, he gave it to Ais, who also looked before turning towards Loki and lifting the back of her shirt without stripping as Aidan did. Her meaning was pretty straightforward, and the goddess immediately went and updated her status as well before transcribing it on a sheet of paper.

"Here." Said Loki with a hint of a teasing smile as she had seen the updated status and saw a resemblance with Aidan's.

After giving it a quick look, she gave the paper to Aidan, who immediately looked at it.

(**I don't know when the Avenger ability appeared, but since it's related to her parents to avenge them, I figured it was there from the beginning. So here it is.**)

Seeing the same skill as himself on her status sheet, Aidan asked the question Ais also had on her mind. "So, what's with this Twin star skill we both have?"

"This skill allows the both of you to have a better gain of excelia when you kill monsters while being partnered up together. In other words, as long as you stick together, you will grow faster than you would have alone." She replied with a smirk before commenting.

"It seems the two of you are stuck together."
