[Pt. 2.5 - Guild Announcement]
It's been a few days—actually, just two days—since I landed in this guild, which I now know as "Dawn of Hope."
I never imagined that becoming a part of this guild would feel like a gentle breeze on a summer day, but hey, I'm not one to shy away from pleasant surprises. Now, I find myself surrounded by a lively group of companions, offering endless conversations and moments of pure enjoyment.
I get out of bed and head downstairs, drawn by the warmth of the morning sun. To my surprise, I find Elysia waiting for me in the dining room.
"Good morning, sleepyhead."
Elysia's eyes light up with a warm smile, radiating a sense of comfort as I settle into the chair opposite her.
"What are you doing here?"
"I just wanted to see you..."
"Really? Are you sure you don't have any ulterior motives?" I ask, raising an eyebrow sceptically."
I say, eliciting a playful eye roll from Elysia.
"Okay, maybe I do... I came here to share some exciting news with you. I'm planning on taking you to a dungeon that I aim to conquer."
"I'm sorry, what?"
Elysia's laughter fills the room as she jumps to her feet, gesturing for me to follow her.
"You seem like you've never been in a dungeon or even know what one is, so this'll be a great chance for you to comprehend what it's like to be in one."
Am I really that see-through?
"A-ah, right..."
"Don't be nervous... we'll take care of you..."
Elysia's eyes fell as she spoke those words, her golden hair wrapping around her shoulders like a protective shield.
"S-so, whose coming with? And what should I bring?"
My eyes pivot towards hers as she focuses her gaze on me. She stares at me for a whole half-minute, her fingers hovering as if she's typing on an imperceptible keypad, before the same translucent screen appears before me. A guild announcement.
« GUILD ANNOUNCEMENT »
« FROM ELYSIA STARLIGHT »
"As your leader, I have decided to guide Sora Mugenshi, our newest member, into a dungeon for conquest. Your participation in this endeavour is welcome; more attendees will strengthen our team, after all, so feel free to join. Furthermore, this will be a great time to witness and assess his strengths and weaknesses, as well as showcase our guild's unity and teamwork.
Sincerely, Elysia Starlight"
Well, this is interesting, to say the least. I no longer have a choice but to participate in this dungeon conquest with the guild.
"Whoever shows up is who's coming, and as for what you should bring... It doesn't matter."
"Should've expected that..."
I say as I rise from my seat and step closer to Elysia, who smiles at me before stepping out of the room.
A dungeon, huh...? I wonder how hard it'll be; it's honestly pretty nerve-wracking to think about. When I imagine a dungeon, I think of cellars, prisons, and overall dark places, which makes me question how one can even defeat a place like that. But I guess I'll find out soon enough due to a certain someone.
