As we sat there in the church discussing how we were going to stick to the seventeenth floor as we had before I stomped my foot to get the occupants of the Churches attention. "Bell Lili we are leveling up today." I said simply and Ryuu glared at me with laser focus.
"You are going to fight the Goliath that just spawned right..." She murmured making Hestia shake her head in denial to what I was planning.
"Look." I gestured at my fully armored form, and after Loki left with the stuff, she wanted I spent a number of materials on my boots giving me my own flight capability by making them rocket boots. "We can't level up unless we go deeper into the dungeon and past Rivira but none of us have the stats to keep up with the waves of monsters that start coming past Rivira.
"Me and Bell have the weapons and pure strength to hurt the Goliath. But yeah, it's going to be a slug fest," I admitted "But Lili could blind it and maybe even kill it by shooting it in the neck enough times."
Lili weakly raised up her hands. "I don't think this is a good idea..."
Yeah, well people don't count midgets as a minority for a reason during elections for a reason....
Bell also looked slightly pensive, but he had a whole different reason for his fear. "Jake wouldn't this be exactly what Eina means when she says Adventurer's shouldn't go on an adventure."
I sighed theatrically making the girls give a dirty look as I played Bell like a fiddle. "Man, I was hoping we could level up together and set a new record for the fastest level up in history but if you are too scared to fight beside me to make history." I shook my head and said the lines that no matter what would break someone's heart. "Bell its cool I'm not mad or anything. Just disappointed you know?"
"No! Jake, we can do it!" He shouted jumping to his feet. "Actually, let's go now!"
Hestia face vaulted as she was about to reach me and probably shake some sense into me but now with the other person, I need to fight the Goliath agreeing and being so pumped up, she knew it was basically already set in stone and she couldn't go get Freya for back up as she was sleeping in.
Helplessly she turned to Ryuu in hopes of her firmly telling me no or even putting me in time out or something, but the elf mistook her plea full look as she solemnly spoke. "Don't worry Goddess Hestia I will make sure they at least survive."
Hestia just slumped in defeat.
I wasn't just doing this strictly for the level up as I knew we were missing a crucial ingredient to the Hearth Fire project. A Monster Rex quality monster stone, as they are in a whole new level in comparison to even thousands of other monster stones in terms of pure energy it would provide the push, I needed for the most crucial part of said project.
Soon enough we managed to cajole Lili into my not-so-great plan, but she was going to be playing support and sniping at the vitals and trying to debilitate the Goliath as we tried to put it down, so she wasn't going to be in as much danger.
It took us a couple hours to pack up our preparations and make our way to the at the Big Wall of Grief at the end of the seventeenth floor but all too soon we were staring at the big crystal wall with a large shadow within seemingly sleeping

"Ok gentlemen there's the Goliath" Ryuu pointed at the shadow within the crystal wall just waiting for us to enter the big room that acted as its arena. "The Goliath's biggest issues is it's long reach but with both of you being able to fly for a short amount of time that shouldn't be as much an issue." She then raised her finger. "The biggest problem for you guys will be his roar which is capable of hurting level twos with the pure sound waves shaking their organs to pieces."
I understood she was basically telling me to hope to the gods that my armor could block the sound waves, or I could be taken out remotely and I doubt any potions I was carrying would survive whatever could gravely wound me within my armor.
"Thank you for the info, Ryuu." I nodded in thanks to her warnings and as me and Bell walked into the room, the crystal wall started cracking loudly as the monster rex broke its way out to deal with the latest intruders.
It welcomed our challenge with a mighty roar and even with it being basically at the furthest possible distance I still felt slightly sick as my whole body vibrated and my ears popping but thankfully it was just them adjusting not actually my ear drums bursting.
Bell launched himself around the monster with his insect glaive keeping him in the air as he swung around to, I believe attack the Goliath's neck on its backside.
But I couldn't be sure as I wasn't able to see as I flew around while being propelled by my boots as the Goliath seemed to find me the most attractive foe even with Lili missing its eye and lodging an explosive bolt within the poor Goliath's nose.
I was just franticly dodging the endless swipes from the Goliath as it tried to impersonate a fly swatter but finally it seemed Bell made some head way in whatever he was doing behind it as one of the Goliaths arms just stopped working and it tried using the other one to smack the back of its neck.
For a moment I was scared Bell was going to be crushed but I saw a flash of fire and him be blasted away from the monster rex and even though the landing looked rough as he smashed into the ground, I knew he was alright as he soon staggered back to his feet.
As the Monster Rex sent a wide slap at me as I flew around, I brought my axe down and combined with the speed of my flight and the momentum of the monster's arm. made my axe cut straight through its arm.
Now the monster was much less dangerous as me and Bell took our time dismantling it until finally as I managed to almost chop off one of its feet Lili managed to finally shoot it directly in the ear making it poof into smoke as its brain was destroyed.
For a moment I was disappointed as me and Bell weren't the ones to get the kill but my exhaustion overwhelmed my disappointment as I gladly faceplanted in the thankfully cool ground as I was pretty close to Mind Down from all the flying.
"Ryuu get the crystal and drops pls." I asked trying to fight off the calling of sleep as I staggered over to Bell and seeing him actually cradling his arm and blood leaking out of his ears I knew he must have gotten caught a bit of a roar and one of its swipes, so I force fed him one of the Elixer's I was able to salvage from Loki's shipment as he was too groggy to reach his own if they even survived to begin with.
We spent the next hour just recovering before Ryuu reminded us, to get moving before another Familia came to claim our loot making me groan as I stiffly got to my feet and put the monster stone inside a padded rucksack, I was going to carry back along with the Goliath's skin and tooth drops.
