Chapter 427 The Inn Incident [Pt 3]

"Don't you find it funny that they're complaining about the room?"

As Eric and Adonis made it down the stairs, the boy in glasses brought up the topic while smiling playfully.

"I wonder how they would?react when we finally begin the Conquest and they have to spend a week in the Dungeon." He added, chuckling.

There were no comfy beds or proper furniture in a Dungeon.

No bathrooms either.

"They'll probably have to sleep very close to their Party Members—total strangers. If they're reacting like this to a joint room with people they know... it's hilarious to think about what will happen eventually."

Eric was trying to break the awkward silence between him and Adonis. They had spoken a few times in the past, so he knew Adonis was a cool dude, but something felt off about him this night.

It almost felt like he wasn't really himself.

"You really know your stuff, huh?" Thankfully, Adonis responded back, smiling as warmly as he always did.

Eric laughed a bit nervously as he used his finger to itch a side of his face.

"Yeah. I might have read a few books and played a few games related to fantasy."

"Haha! Is that so? Well... you can't blame our friends for acting this way." Adonis smiled at Eric.

Despite saying that, Adonis' curled-up lips grew broader and he winked at Eric. "Though it will be funny to see their reaction, wouldn't it?"

"Right?"

Both boys laughed as they kept their eyes out for the group of Adventurers that were discussing with one another previously.

"Hello there." Adonis approached them without caution or hesitation, a move that Eric felt a bit nervous about doing.

Despite his curiosity, he wasn't the type to boldly start off conversations with strangers—especially if they were in a group.

He was a tad shy, to be honest.

"Ohh? I haven't seen your face around? New here?"

"Yes. My friends and I just arrived yesterday. We came from the countryside to become Adventurers in search for freedom and fortune."

"Y-yes. Do you know them?" The Adventurers asked with raised brows.

"N-no... not really. Just heard of them a little." Adonis murmured. "Forgive my interruption. Please continue."

The Adventurers nodded their heads and proceeded with their words.

They explained what they heard about concerning what happened the previous day; with Jet and Lux proceeding to the Adventurers Guild upon arriving in the City.

They went on about how they requested to take on the Test of the highest order—that is, the Heroic Rank Test.

Then, how they defeated Sango, one of the strongest Adventurers in the City.

The main gist happened earlier in the current day, though, when the two Adventurers returned with their examiner with a captured A-Tier Monster, as well as sacks filled to the brim with unknown treasures.

It was crazy listening to them speak. Some of their words were vague and confused at best, and a few times they would make mistakes in the narration, only to be corrected by a fellow.

Needless to say, the information they provided was very flowed.

'Trisha was right...' Eric sighed to himself. 'These guys are too low-ranked.'

They probably heard secondhand—perhaps even thirdhand—

accounts of what happened and were passing it off as if they saw everything with their very eyes.

This, of course, was so they could look important and propped-

up in the eyes of a newbie, but Eric personally thought it was pathetic.

'We should have waited to talk to a more reliable person.'

"I see. Thank you." Adonis bowed his head in appreciation as he graced everyone with his brilliant smile.

"I have to be on my way now. See you all later."
