Transcription: "Bōkensha (Beru·Kuraneru)" (Japanese: 冒険者ベル・クラネル)
April 4, 2015 (2015-04-04)
Gods who created the Universe descended from Heaven to live among humans on the condition they swore to never again use their godly powers. The Gods only remaining power is the Blessing, which they grant to humans to level up their powers (Similar to how characters level up in video games). These humans, known as Familia, become that God's family. Bell Cranel, the only member of the Goddess Hestia's Familia, is almost killed by a Minotaur. He is saved by Aiz Wallenstein, a high-level adventurer and member of the Familia of the Goddess Loki, and falls in love with her. Hestia realises he has gained the magical skill Realis Phrase, which will raise his level rapidly based on the strength of his feelings as he fights, but decides to keep it secret as it makes him very valuable and other Gods may try to acquire him. The next day, after more adventuring, Bell's stats rise dramatically. Bell plans on talking to Aiz but he overhears another Familia talking about how he embarrassed himself fighting the Minotaur. Realising how pathetic he must seem compared to Aiz, he runs off and absentmindedly enters the dungeon. To let off some steam, he desperately slays as many monsters as he can and returns to Hestia in the morning, beaten and bleeding, but victorious and inspired nonetheless.

Hestia continues to keep Realis Phrase secret from Bell, passing off his improvement as the result of hard work, and announces she will be gone for several days.

After hours of grovelling in the Dogeza position Hestia convinces Hephaistos to forge a weapon, on condition Hestia pays for it no matter how many centuries it takes. Hephaistos forge an enchanted Tantō for Bell. Bell is asked by the maids of the Hostess of Fertility Pub to return a purse to Syr, a waitress with a crush on Bell, who got so excited about the festival she forgot it. An unnamed Goddess contacts Loki trying to locate a Familia she intends on acquiring, the description of whom matches Bell perfectly. Hestia locates Bell and insists they go on a romantic date. The unnamed Goddess releases a captured albino gorilla monster, ordering it to capture Bell. It corners Hestia and Bell, who attacks it with his original knife only for it to shatter. Desperate to protect Hestia he locks her on the other side of a metal gate and prepares to fight the gorilla unarmed.

His deed is witnessed by dozens of people, including Ais, who smiles before walking away. Hestia suddenly faints with the unknown Goddess who released the Gorilla watching, implying it was her doing. As Hestia recovers Bell realises the Hestia Knife was forged by Hephaistos, meaning it was incredibly expensive and he swears to keep having faith in Hestia.
