"I'll sign up now, so I'll be at the very bottom. Anyway, I'm a beginner. ” (Hikaru)
“So you're just kroco! What, are you Rifreya's younger brother or something?”
“Yeah, something like that.” (Mari)
" It's not to be rude here brat, but you must first learn to dance with the Skeleton on the 1st Floor. In the dungeon, the people who did not know their limits were the ones who died first.”
I thought he was a troubled bastard, but he was actually a normal old man who gave good advice.
I've seen some bodies of explorers on the 2nd Floor who don't 'understand their own limits'.
People who did not yet have the combat ability to go to the 2nd Floor.
So this senior must be aware of the newbie so as not to end like that.
Polishing your skills on the 1st Floor, gather party members, make related preparations, and then go to the 2nd Floor. At first, just explore around the stairs, and after exploring moderately, go back…
If you can't do that, you're not fit to be an explorer.
"Thank you very much. I plan to try against the Skeleton. Brother here is just guiding me here. After all, he was a worried man. ” (Hikaru)
“Hooh, good if you obey. Well, do your best not to trouble your sister. Rifreya too, if you change your mind, party with us.”
The man left with a warm laugh.
If he really was a troubled bastard, I would be fine with playing boxing, but he is just a good guy.
Well, thinking about it logically, not many people would cause problems at the facility itself.
“Hikaru... what was that?” (Rifreya)
But it seemed like Rifreya was not too happy about this.
Well, it's not manly.
“Hm? I'm a beginner, right? I usually have to start by trying to fight the Skeleton. If it wasn't for you, Rifreya, I did plan on doing that.” (Mari)
"You're my little brother ..." (Rifreya)
“Lies are instruments. Such people just wanted to get involved, so there was no point taking them seriously. Also, it looks like he's not a bad guy or anything.” (Mari)
“I understand that, but ...” (Rifreya)
Rifreya locked hands with me conspicuously and led me to the counter.
Well, brother and sister can join hands…
The explanation at the guild counter was really like business.
I ignored Rifreya who was clinging to me the entire time with his hands locked, and listened well.
I won't be inferior to the questioning gazes of the guild staff members either!
Explorers starting from Spiritus Rank. In numbers, it will be the 6th.
Bronze ID.
I've taken bronze IDs many times on the 2nd Floor from the dead explorers. To think I'd have it myself.
Stage 1, Salamander Rating. Burning Steel, Salamandor, ID.
Rank 2, Undine Rating. Magic metal, Mithril, ID.
Rank 3, Gnome Rating. gold ID.
Rank 4, Sylvestre Ranking. silver ID.
Rank 5, Dryad Rating. black ID.
Stage 6, Spiritus Rank. bronze ID.
Real cool.
By the way, the highest ranked explorer in the city was the Undine Rank.
I'm not very interested in the guild, but it gives me the desire to work a little hard, so I can't help but say this is a good job of management.
I can feel the ruse of making explorers risk their lives here.
It was something that taught the attitude of an explorer on the 1st Floor to those with free time, but Rifreya said 'we'll do it ourselves, so it's fine' and refused.
Well, it is true that there is no need to waste time on it if Rifreya will teach me.
Also, at the end of the explanation, they told me very emphatically 'don't touch the gems that others have found no matter what happens'. It seemed like the talk of a Divine Beast appearing while stealing treasures was quite a serious affair. Let's be careful.
After that, I proposed to dive into the dungeon, and buy the necessary items in the guild.
Torch, food, beverage, herb, clean cloth, gauze, etc.
To be honest it wasn't necessary for me, but since there was a chance, I bought it as well. The potion turned out to only be able to heal small wounds. Are they the same as the 1 Crystal potion?
“Ah, it's okay for a battle member to be you and me, but what do we do with the Scouts?” (Rifreya)
"Surveyor, yes." (Mari)
Asked like that by Rifreya, I would like to answer 'we don't need', but now come to think of it, if we are going to form a party, I can't be complacent.
I don't know how the pro scouts work.
“Can you hire them? Over Here?" (Mari)
"No. It's in a neighboring facility. ” (Rifreya)
I entered the old building right beside the guild with Rifreya's guidance.
The entrance reads 'Lynx Mutual Aid Association'.
Everything inside is catfolk.
the beastkin cat seems to be called Lynx. It must be the name of their race.
“There are a number of rules when hiring a Lynx scout. First, deposit. It has to be paid in advance. Scouts, because of the nature of their work, uhm.they tend to be killed by monsters.so, the deposit to employ them is the price of their lives.” (Rifreya)
In the case when the scouts die in the dungeon, the payment will of course not return.
It really should be considered as a price for their lives in that sense as well.
"I understand. No one knows what happened in the dungeon.” (Mari)
"Yes. There are even parties that use Scouts as bait to escape.” (Rifreya)
“But I feel a lynx would be better at escaping.” (Mari)
“There are many of them whose legs are injured.” (Rifreya)
The injury really is a problem.
I don't think their legs will be injured that much on the 2nd Floor at the moment. There are shameless people like the one who left Grapefull.
By the way, the deposit is very low. Only 5 silver coins.
"Can you ask for a certain lynx scout?" (Mari)
“Eh? I should have, but...I can't tell them apart. You can, Hikaru?” (Rifreya)
"of course. Their faces and fur are completely different.” (Mari)
I spoke to the person who was rolling around on the sofa filled with holes.
"Grapefull, I want to hire you." (Mari)
“ Him his?! Who are you, brother?! Regardless of my appearance, I can dive all the way to Level 3, so I'm a bit expensive, huh?” (Grapefull)
“Then, how about the free one? For previous potion.” (Mari)
When I said this with a smile, the Grapefull tail stood up and he jumped.
“kakak that time!! To think you'd show up! I'm really very grateful that you helped me back then!” (Grapefull)
“I didn't actually plan to show up, but the situation has changed. Will you be our scout?” (Mari)
“If you're okay with someone like me, with pleasure! I'll be getting ready soon!” (Grapefull)
Grapefull ran up the stairs as if bouncing.
If I'm going to hire someone, it's better someone I know.
