Reincarnated in the game world ~ A gamer's beginning to [Dungeon job hunting recommendation]

Vol. 8 - Chapter 408 - ‘In a good way’ means praise, right?



She was speaking in her usual calm and cool mood, but opposite emotions were swirling inside her it seems. And as if to say Nico alone wasn't the person who was thinking the same thing, Kairi, who had been there, also vehemently nodded in agreement.

“Oh, I know right? I had heard about ‹Eden›, but to think the experience would be so wildly different…you really never know unless you tried them first hand. Of course, I mean it in a good way.”

“The never-ending series of shock has left me tired. ‹Eden› is really as absurd as Marie-senpai said—no, even leagues above it. Of course, I mean it in a good way.”

In a good way? Is adding ‘in a good way’ at the end of sentence a new fad that I have been out of loop with?

Well, I guess it must really be an exceptional experience if they're adding good sense, right? (?)

As I had planned, we continued the speedrun for Beg-low dungeons today as well and cleared the last dungeon in the list, ‹Underground Stillwater Dungeon›. Once the three had three ‘Conqueror’s Proof’, we rushed to the ‹Training Hall› from there, cleared Rank 2 (Lv10~Lv20) and got everyone's level to 20. Subsequently, they unlocked their second order skill tree.

It was quite a jam-packed schedule, but that was everyday’s matter for ‹Eden›. However, for them, it seems it was more than just a tight schedule. Now that I think about it, Saturn and the other three also said what was normal for ‹Eden› was absolutely abnormal for them. I guess they weren't joking, huh?

Anyway, the earlier words of sub-member were in reference to their acceptance of our normal standard. I take it as they found ‹Eden› even more amazing than the rumors they have heard.

A guild that transcends your imagination (in a good way). Woah, that actually sounds cool.

“What’s with that smug look?”

Sierra, seeing the grin on my face after listening to their impression, gave me a side-eyed stare. Thank you very much, Sierra-sama. Today’s really a pleasant day, isn't it?

“I gladly accept your praises.”

“I wonder about it though, I mean praises. I am getting a different meaning.”

Sierra said with a slightly subtle expression.

Ahaha, what else could they mean? They even said “in a good way”, so that ought to be praise of course. As such, our job was to honestly accept them.

We finished our dungeon run for today while having such an exchange. We had attained our goal of unlocking the second order skill tree.

The two members of the support department would still need to dive into the dungeon and upgrade their level, but our productioner Alulu has gained a vital skill. Now, we just need to put up an equipment facility from where she would be able to gain experience to level up without fighting.

We called it the day and left the dungeon to sell the materials. Our destination was, of course, ‹Seal Emblem Sticker› who had been our frequent go-to for such things.

As usual, our pigtailed loli—I mean, Senpai was there. Hmm, that pigtail hairstyle really seemed like something made for her. Marie-senpai was tending to the shop.

“Marie-nee!”

“My, if ain't Alulu. How are ya doing?”

Alulu was taken into a hug by Marie-senpai the instant she entered the shop.

I had heard Alulu looked up to Marie-senpai as a sister figure, and they really seemed to be on good terms. Though more than that, I was more curious about Marie-senpai's height which was no more than Dwarf Alul—cough, cough. Crap, my ‘Intuition’ just buzzed at full volume. No, I wasn't thinking of anything rude!

"How are ya doing in ‹Eden› sub-guild? Ya blending in well?"

"Aye! I'm doing it well, probably...I am really surprised by how they do things. It even goes above 'shockingly absurd' guild as you said!"

"I know right~"

Alulu's words make Marie-senpai burst into laughter.

"Marie-san, we have these materials to see. Can you?"

"Ah, sorry for lapsing here, Sierra. Materials are always welcome! ......Speaking of, what's the volume this time?"

Marie-senpai left Alulu and brought in a huge plate to put on materials. Though, she looked a bit nervous when speaking of the last part. I wonder why? Anyway, I answered.

"It's about materials from three beginner bosses and some from small-fry monsters. Kairi, get them out."

"Roger."

Marie-senapi seemed to have relieved a sigh of relief—should be my imagination, yeah—after I explained.

All the items were stored into the ‹Item Bag (Mid)› that Kairi was holding into. I considered ‹Item Bag› would surely be needed when creating a sub-guild so I brought them with QP at ‹Exchange House›. I purchased three which were now in custody of ‹Arc-Arcadia›. This was absolutely an indispensable item that couldn't be ignored after all, so ‹Eden› handed it with the label of top-priority support.

"Heh~. It's quite an modest amount for ‹Eden›."

"Is that so, Marie-nee? I thought we had gathered quite a huge amount..."

"Yeah. Well, you will understand it one of these days~."

When Marie-senpai said this, her eyes seemed to turn to stare at me. I don't remember doing anything. Maybe she meant something else?. And since we're at it, I also paid for the ‹Dash Boots› that I had requested from her guild awhile ago.

Now that Marie-senpai was done meeting with the ‹Arc-Arcadia› members, and with the payment done, we also finished our business here.

The majority of remuneration from drops and all was taken by ‹Eden›, as we had carried the members of ‹Arc-Arcadia› this time, and following our first priority was clearing dungeons, we hardly collected other items. But, since the amount of drop was slightly increased due to ‹Collector› Nico's ability, a small part of it was transferred to ‹Arc-Arcadia›.

According to the report, pretty much everything went as planned for the rest of the teams as well. With this, our sub-members were more or less able to act on their own, so that was the end of sub-members training for the time being. I had already passed the ‹Strongest Training Manual› to the sub-members, so they would be diving into the dungeon at their own pace from tomorrow onward or training their new ‹Skill› or ‹Magic› at the training ground.

And speaking of tomorrow, it marked the long-awaited event for ‹Eden›—D-rank promotion exam.
