1058 Words
"Floor 4... The Trench. As expected. After Atlantis. It might be something like this... There's no monster list. Making me freaking excited about it... I wonder if Solo Sea Conqueror is going have effect..."
I mutter. Right now. We're on our way back from the Hot Spring. It takes about 7 hours. And we're already 5 hours in. So we have around 2 hours left on our journey.
Everyone is jamming to music while I was driving. And Michi is actually the one showing me the Forum. Of course, on red light.
Anyway, While we're driving for that long. We often stop to go to the bathroom. And after a while, We need to refill our gas. So in a certain gas station.
"Freaking hell... My butt is hurting from sitting too long..."
I muttered to myself. I look around and the girls are scattering to the bathroom. They said that they're going to go there and then stop by the mini market.
I fill the Gas on the car and then park it on the side of the Gas Station. I go out again and go to the mini market. I met up with everyone but decided to ignore them for the time being due to my stress.
"Shiro~ What are you buying?"
And of course. Michi are the only person I can't ignore. I look at her after grabbing Coffee.
"I... Need sweets..."
I said to her. She nodded. She disappear and then grab something from the other shelf. I grab a lot of drink for myself. I want to enjoy the ride so... I need to drink a lot of sweet for me to enjoy that.
"Here. Let me pay your stuff."
Michi said with a smile. I give it to her and she go to the cashier with the other. And we resume our Journey. Arriving at the house again. I go to my computer. The girls decided to have a sleep over and they crowded my room immediately.
"Geez... Why do you guys have to crowd our room huh?"
I asked. Michi apologize and I just sigh. I chat with Dion for a bit.
"So. What level are you?"
I asked him through the Voice Call.
"Oh actually... We didn't really do too much leveling because... We've been scouting people to join our guild."
"Oh! Nice! You find some people?"
"Yeah. I'm going to send you the screenshot of them. They're just this really brand new player. I think they're a party of 3. All of them are girls. They're 2 Archer and Tank."
I was pretty shocked when hearing that. I immediately type in the chat.
'Yo dude... What have you done? Girls? You're not doing something illegal right?'
'Of course not. Don't worry. It's not like they're underage or something. They're Uni Student as well. So you don't have to worry. Well... All of us are older than you so... You're in no place to talk.'
'I know. But just make sure that both Michi and Sakura is going to be alright with them. I'm afraid that Sakura might kill you.'
'Oh crap. Shiro, If that happen... Can you please delete my browser history?'
'I will brother. Don't you worry. I will delete your entire browser.'
'Wait! I don't want to die either. Don't worry! They're a chill group and we play with them for a bit. They're actually not that bad. I pick them because they're really is something we need.'
But then. It hits me.
"Why do we type again? We can talk Dion."
"Oh right. Sorry. I'm stupid."
He replied. No, we both stupid. And then... The Girls started to go crazy due to horror film. They were screaming.
"Hm? What was that Shiro? Is that Michi?"
"No. Michi would never scream on a horror movie. It just her friends. We just finished filming and just arrived back. And they want to have a sleep over.. In our room."
"Ah I see... Must be tough huh. Anyway. See you tomorrow. Since we don't have Uni. Let's go from 4 AM. Since that's when the Server finished updating."
"You got it. See you."
I end the call and look at the clock. It still 8 PM. If I want to wake up at 4 and not have a massive Sleepiness attacking me. I need to sleep early.
"Hey Girls. I'm going to sleep. If you need something. You can wake me up. You girls can use my room to play or anything. But here's one thing. Do not ever. Check any of my bags. If you check it. Things escalate."
I said seriously. They all nodded in understanding. But deep inside that eyes. Is something.
"Don't think to ever open it. If I caught you... Especially you Michi... I will be sad if you open it."
I said. Michi immediately nodded and I go out to the Living room. I sunk into the sofa with Blindfold on and go to sleep.
Anyway... At 4 AM in the morning. I wake up feels really refreshed. Despite not waking up in my Bed. I go up to my Room and see that the Girls is using my Bed. They're sleeping normally. Not sloppy like in the Hot Spring. I don't think there's any room for me to play in the bed.
So, I grab my Chair. I lower the back to a flat surface and then. Log into the game. The Game just updated. I arrived in the Lounge.
"Well then. Let's go and search for the Gate to Floor 4 since I doubt anyone ever find it... I don't think anyone can even get past through the Hard Zone."
I muttered to myself. I go outside and call my Sea Serpent. And at that same moment. Kaixen log into the game and then chase me down.
"Sorry. I'm a bit late. Have to eat before this."
"Ah That's fine. Let's search it before 7."
"Yeah. Let's go!"
Kaixen and I embark on a journey to find the Gate.
"Hey OneSec. You have any idea where it might be?"
Kaixen asked. And my Answer is...
"Yeah. I know. Let's go."
I said. The Developers is a bunch of trolls. So I know where they're going to put it. Kaixen nodded toward me and he follow me.
Let's go. To the Portal.
