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

Vol. 9 - Chapter 462 - Depart - Target ‹Sea-Dun›!

"You guys never miss the chance to appear first huh, Zephyr, Hannah."

"Good morning Sierra. Well, I was so excited I just suddenly found myself walking up to her!"

"Good morning, Sierra-san."

It was finally the day for ‹Sea-Dun›. Hannah and I were waiting for the rest of the members, after we arrived first in the guild, when Sierra also showed up.

Fumu, just what I would expect from her. It was still two hours before we departed after all. But as someone with a serious personality and being  the sub-guildmaster, she should have thought it was her duty to come early.

"But being here solves my problem. I need to confirm something with you, Zephyr."

"Oh, what is it?"

"What's with that monster hunt at night thing in schedule? It's so vague I can't understand what it's for."

Whoopsie. I swear my heart skipped a beat here. No, maybe I should have seen that coming, I guess?

It's you know, that. The summer night thing. The courage test Sierra can't handle. I had masked it as a monster hunt to hide the real fact.

I mean, what's the summer tip without , a little bit of courage test is a must! Even if its a day trip only!

I had nicknamed the plan as ‹Monster Hunting at Night› to deceive her eyes but she has a sharp instinct! But not yet! I couldn't give up yet and used whatever excuse I could come up with to delude her suspicion.

"Ohhh. You know how we don't have much experience in fighting monsters at night, right? Since we have such a perfect chance, I just thought we might as well give it a try. After all, our exploration may require camping in the dungeon in near future. So I just thought I should let them get the experience beforehand."

"But haven't we done it on the last trip?"

"B-But Lana and other members weren't here then. Besides, we were almost always in the tent at night. This time, it would be without holding back."

"Hmm..."

Thump-Thump 

Alright, she didn't squint her eyes, so I guess......safe?

Sierra showed an expression of uncertainty still but otherwise nodded for now. Phew.

Soon, other members also started popping up in succession as the sum climbed over.

It's a pity Reglam wasn't here but except him, we had a huge number gathered this time.

A broad smile was continuously plastered over Lana's face. She must have been dying to experience this trip after missing the last one.

"Zephyr, it's finally the day! I have brought in a very good thing from Marie!"

Hmm, so the just-returned-from-home Princess has also safely obtained her swimsuit.

"I am looking forward to it then."

"......Now that you're saying it so directly, It feels a bit embrassing."

Lana's cheeks slightly reddened when I muttered my excitement as well. ---How should I say, or in lack of better words, it's a 10/10 reaction!

After seeing everyone had arrived, Celestine called out.

"Everyone has gathered, and all preparations are done as well."

"Alrighttt! Everyone, it's finally time. Let's depart ‹Sea-Dun›!"

" " " "Let's gooooo!! " " " "

With loud clamour, we of ‹Eden› and ‹Arc-Arcadia› started our march for ‹Sea-Dun›. It didn't take minutes for our group, given its size, to become the centre of other student's attention.

"Hey, isn't that---?"

"It's ‹Eden›! Hey-hey, isn't the whole club!?"

"Where in the world are they intending to go with that much gunpowder? Arena?"

"Look at their direction, it seems like Extra-Dungeon. If I am not wrong, they had also pulled a stayover at ‹Food-Dun› just the other day with all members."

"Are you saying it's the repeat of that!?"

"What a way of life... I wonder If I can tail them?"

"But does your wallet allow it?"

"Damn!"

"You can tail them but you will only get to see the hospitality of ‹Public Morale Committee›."

"Nevertheless, the girls in their guild are really as many as stars. There aren't even more than three boys."

"I don't care about boys. All I care about is girls!"

"Moshi-moshi, someone please pick this untactful guy!"

"Guilty!"

"Woah!? What the hec---stoppp---?"

"And once again, another evil bites the dust."

"Holy, was it the power of Princess stan?! Damn, that happened so fast!?"

I felt like the surrounding was heating with whispers and some kind motion? ...Or maybe not.

Hmm, but we're not less than anyone when it comes to commotion as well. The members excitedly talk between themselves.

"I have never seen the sea~, so I wonder what kind of place it will be."

"Hn, Lana. Sea is salty. Awfully."

"Oh, Rina also said the same, but Her Highness Lana isn't asking about food, Karua. She meant the scenery."

Karua and food always go hand in hand huh? Luckily Rika was there to correct her. Though Karua crossed her arm with an intricate expression at that.

"Hn...Hmm? I guess...it's beautiful?"

"No, why the question mark?"

Right, Karua did say she had the chance to see the sea when the mercenary group was shifting. Though she herself only remembers what food she ate etc. I guess that's what the foodies are for you, huh?  Alright, I should surprise her with a seafood surprise later.

"Rina-san, is there something to be careful about?"

"It's a good question. Actually avoid the deep places since there's the danger of drowning, which is scary. Let's see, It would be everyone's first time wearing a swimsuit right? Then I heed everyone to not go into water more deeper than your thighs since you don't know swimming."

As someone from a land with sea, Rina unhurriedly replied to all the questions she was asked, among which first was from Aegis-senpai.

"Tahaha~. I can't bring myself to swim. I had experience struggling in the lake while bathing before. Fortunately I managed to see the missing foothold in time so I managed to avoid the disaster but I really felt afraid of water after that for a while. After some research, I also conclude that do not go further into water than your legs can support."

"Hmm, I see. Misato's words are also right. Let's be careful, everyone. But what to do about Lulu? At this ate, the beach would be the only safe haven for Lulu to play with her height."

"Y-You don't need to take all that trouble, Celia-chan. I'm sure a swimming ring etc would suffice."

"Yes, Lulu-san is tiny but there shouldn't be a problem with the swimming ring and someone looking after her. However I would still suggest refraining from places where your leg can't reach surface."

"Aye! Lulu understands!"

Everyone had started their discussion over what to do and what to avoid at sea. Still, so it's possible to sink into the water here in reality huh. This phenomenon was absent from ‹Dungeon Activity› along with underwater battle.

I wasn't worried about drowning so I had completely forget about notifying everyone about it. Right, caution is important when at sea, everyone. Rina saved the wool here honestly.

Anyway, we had finally reached at the gate to ‹Sea-Dun›. It's the time! And with that, we took our step.
