The Greek gods had given up there divine powers to live like their followers. They came down to start familias. when they came down they made a dungeon to give their familias something to strive for. Depending on how big a god you where depended on the strength of your followers and how well they did in the dungeons. The top 3 familias were the house of Zeus, hades, and Poseidon. This story follows a young boy with no familia and his road to becoming B the strongest of the strong.

        Hi my name is Adrain. I have no familia and life's kind of hard. I go to the dungeon to defeat monsters and get pick up items. Pick up items are our currency, well not really but the easiest way to get money. You go to the bank and trade them in. Since I don't have a god to level up my stats I'm not really that strong. I've been going around town trying to see if anyone wil let me join but no one did. One day when I'm walking down the street I hear a loud roar and I saw a kid with white hair carrying a girl and then a huge ape thing running after them. I decided since I'm an adventurer(that's what they called us people who went into the dungeon) to go and help. Probably to the worst mistake id ever done. The two ran behind a little stone wall and was just crouching there. I had no idea what they where doing so in a huge rush of adrenaline I ran over there win the speed of sound( adventures get these things called skills and mine is mega speed) and attempted to slash the apes arm off. My sword broke. In despair because I knew I was about to die I gave up. The ape grabbed my by the body and next thing I know it's screaming in pain the white haired boy was attacking it. He was moving so fast not as fast as me but he was moving like he was air he was soooo agile. With in 2 min he had defeated the ape. And while I was passed out on the ground the boy and girl took me to some old church. I soon came to know the boy as bell cranel and the girl was a god named Hestia. She had said because of your bravery I will rank up your stats it will make you a lot better. I wanted to say no because that was something you needed a familia for but I took it. It would make things a lot easier to make money in the dungeon. When she had ranked my stats up I heard a gasp from her and bell I thought something was wrong. They said all my abilities where rank S. I said what?!?!?!?(our stats are ranked by stuff like that and S is one of the higher ones). They said having something that strong in the familia would help things out but I had to say no I didn't want to join a familia no one knew about. They said I could stay at the church as long as I paid a little bit of rent. I took that offer though that would help me because I wouldn't have to live in the streets. The next day me and bell went to the dungeon together but went on different floors I decided To go the the 11th floor and he went to the 5th I wanted to test my new abilities. It was really foggy there. I could barely see a thing. When I here this loud roar. And the next thing I know I'm surrounded by all of these huge dragons and trolls. I thought to myself with my speed getting out of this would be easy but then I had a flash back to when someone said the best way to level up was to take on any adventures you get. I forgot to tell you something about ranking up to a new level and how hard that was. Even though my abilities are S ranked I'm still only a rank 1 to rank up you need to do something really big like take on a really strong monster in the dungeon or beat a really strong opponent in practice. I decided to take the monsters on. It was sooooo easy with my speed and new abilities I was able to beat them in like 5 min. I was disappointed. I really thought that would be the day I ranked up. One thing I was happy about was that those drops where huge when I took them back I got almost a million gold pieces. I decided to give half to Hestia so that would pay my rent for a long while and I went to by some equipment to make things a lot more easy for me. I was always fasniated with ninjas so I bought this stuff that made me look like a bad ass ninja. I had a long katana which was forged by one of the best gods and my equipment was made by her too. I decided to keep going to that floor and getting a lot of money. One day I was there and I heard that a rogue minotaur going around on floor 10 and I thought to myself that that's the same floor bell and his new supporter is on. I use my super speed to try and get outta the floor I'm on and then I felt the urge to jump back and a blast hits the spot I was about to go in. I look around and I see a shadowy figure in the distance. I tell it to come and I see it split in 2. I hear a chant from one of the sides so I know it's a person and then the other side gets huge it just keeps growing it's a Typhon. I was in fear.  I couldn't even move when I went to stomp on me I just thought of bell and how I needed to save him and that gave me the courage to move. I used my super speed to try and kill the caster of the magic creature and the typhoon smacked me back like 600 feet. Over half of my equipment was damaged . My mask had fallen off and one of my pant legs where completely ripped off. I was bloody like I had been beat to a pulp. For a big huge thing like that it was able to keep up with my speed. I didn't know how to fight that thing because I knew I couldn't out power it. I used my super speed and really pushed in to the limits. If I push it to far I could kill myself. When I'm in this state steam comes my body and my skin turns into a bright red. I move faster then the Speed of light. When a strike it's like when you see lighting the hear the sound. You see me strike then feel the after effects a few seconds later. In 5 seconds I took off 3 of its legs. It let out a huge screech and then I hear a chant going and it get regenerated and gets a lot bigger. I feel like my time In this state is running out. I have time for one more attack. I lunge with all my full speed threw its heart. I feel huge boost of power go out and my regular speed is back. I thought I had one then I heard the dude chanting again I had completely forgotten about him. The typhoon was starting to heal and if did I would die I start running but by the time I was like halfway there he finished the chant. I lost all hope for winning I just dropped to the ground in total despair. When the Typhon came to stomp on me I don't even know what happened I just snapped. My speed was faster then the speed of light. I was fast enough to escape a black hole if I needed to. With in .2 seconds I had completely destroyed the whole Typhon. Then I turned my attention to the caster I see him step back and I catch up to him in the blink of an I then the next thing I  know he vanished. I power down from my form. I head to where the Typhon was at and I see this huge item drop. I get that and use my new powers to get to bell as fast as I can. When I find bell he's passed out on his feet from using to much magic and I see aiz the strongest person in all of this town. She a level 6. Knowing that bell was okay I passed out. I wake up next to bell in a hospital and with Hestia by both of us. Some adventures had seen what I did and had spread the words around. I was so hype that everyone would know who I was and that I had defeated a Typhon. Hestia leveled me and bell up and we had both reached level 2 even tho most of our bones where broken we didn't care we hopped up and Hestia got massed at us. She told us now that where level 2 adventures that she had to go to this place where all the gods  gather and chose nicknames for all the new level 2 adventures. Me and bell had a fast heal rate. Within 12 hours we where perfectly fine. We waited in the church and when Hestia came back she told us the names that she had chosen for us. Bell got the little rookie LOL. You should've seen the disappointment in his face. I can't lie I thought I was gonna get a dumb name to but she had gotten me the name PHANTOM  NINJA. Me and bell put on our new equipment and went to the dungeon gave each other our good byes and good lucks and headed on our way. Being a level 2 I felt unstoppable I walked on to the floor with the Typhon and look around and thought to myself something Is off about this floor and I'm gonna find out........
