Vol. 3 - Ch. 172 - Let’s Welcome the New Member, beginning with Lulu!

Arc 3 - A Week Long New Member's Training Arc"I'm Lulu and I will be under the care of <Eden> from today onwards. Please give me your blessings, Sachineko-sama."

"Oh, Lulu. Done with your greetings to Sachineko-sama? let's greet the other members of <Eden>"

The day after the E-rank promotion exam, I immediately called out to the tentative member candidates we had decided on earlier.

The first person to come is Lulu, a young girl who carries an amazing type of Symbol called <Loli-ification> and <Race> category <Viscount>.

Though, she looks no older than a 6-7 year old, so I guess calling her a child is more appropriate then young girl.

Lulu first greeted me and Sierra when she entered the room and moved to the house shrine as if she was drawn in by something and was now greeting Sachineko-sama.

As one would expect from a self-proclaimed stuffed animal enthusiast.

Lulu, when I called her, came running towards me with her arms outstretched behind her back falteringly.

What's with that way of running! I didn't expect this way of running in reality outside of anime.

Amazing.

"I'm sorry. I just felt as if I had been called by Sachineko-sama."

"Maybe, it's just your imagination."

Lulu tried to make excuses for heading to greet Sachineko-sama first . But I really didn't mind, as she greeted Sachineko-sama properly.

Hmm? Speaking of this, have I greeted Sachineko-sama today? Crap, now I have this sudden urge to greet Sachineko-sama.

D-does this mean I'm being beckoned by Sachineko-sama?

"Where are you going Zephyr, come back. And Lulu too, you should properly greet everyone."

"Understood!"

Chided by Sierra, my body that was heading towards Sachineko-sama returned. I felt like I could get along with Lulu.

Sierra, to whom I have left the sub guild master position, is looking even more stern than usual. Isn't she kind of looking even more cool?

Under the supervision of Sierra, Lulu once again showed a serious expression and turned to me.

"Once again, I'm really grateful for you to allow me to join the guild <Eden>, Zephyr onii-sama."

"You're welcome. Do your best since I'm going to train you without holding back"

"I will!"

Lulu regained her cheerfulness as she gave a salute pose with her hand on her forehead.

"Uhhh, she's so adorable...... "

It seems like some of the members have been captured by her actions. I can't see since they are behind me but I'm sure they must be having hearts marks in their eyes.

"Nevertheless, I can't believe I'm joining the famous <Eden> guild. I almost thought Sierra is playing a prank with me when she called out to me"

Lulu looked at all of us with her sparkly eyes. Her gaze has a kind of reverence as if she's looking at her favourite idol. I'm sure even the person with a malicious heart will be purified when looked at by her innocent eyes. But my heart is clean, so there's no problem! (R, really)

However our guild <Eden> is like an ever increasing tide during the tsunami in the public eyes. Sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ N0vᴇlFirᴇ.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.

Rumours have been spreading around that our guild screening for the candidate is absurdly strict if they want to join us and only the finest one chosen after the nightmarish difficulty can belong to our guild.

Though I don't recall ever having strict screening or nightmarish difficulty? Do they really think that interviews are so difficult? But I have never once rejected those who are eager to join us... ? And what the hell is strict screening?

Well it's not like I purposely tried to correct it either. I would most likely refuse if someone tried to hard sell themselves.

Rather, it's because those rumours keep such people in bay that I find the current situation much more pleasing.

Anyway,

"Very well, how about we begin the process to acquire a job right away? You want the <Lolita hero>, right?"

"Yes! But can I even acquire it?"

"Have faith. I guarantee you will have this job before the day end, no, just in two hours."

After all, it's that <Lolita hero>. Let's move as soon as possible, I can't wait to add her strength to our group!

[Lolita hero]

This job mainly revolves around the debuff but it's also an almighty job which can assume the role of tank etc. Not only does this job provide many skills that become the cornerstone of a party, the solo fighting power is also extraordinarily high.

Another feature is it uses a number of skills from <Quick-action> category which makes it possible to cast rapid attacks. <Quick-action> is usually an exceptional skill that allows you to link your combo twice or even thrice with the right timing and together with its relatively short cooldown, it specialises in rapid attacks.

Of course, just that much alone isn't enough for this to shine as Number 4 in top ranking jobs.

Although one of the reasons <Lolita hero> tops as a number 4 in ranking is due to its adorableness and moe appearance, the biggest keypoint is its ability to recover MP from <Unique skill>.

To sum up the core ability of this job, ot can recover MP in evey turns.

A certain amount of MP is recovered when one performs evasion, receives the damage, abnormal status, etc. The recovery amount greatly increases if HP goes down 50% mark and if HP reaches a critical point, you can freely use skills with Cooldown 0 and MP usage 0 only once in the battle. Anyway, it's a job which has a never ending amount of MP.

And then, the aforementioned rapid attacks feature. How should I say, it's just a job for playing all time. All the above features make it unrivalled amidst the group of small fry monsters. Though, the omly thing this job doesn't have is recovery skill so they need to prepare other means.

Hence the reason why it's ranked top 4. However more than anything, it's an extremely fun job.

Even I have used this job multiple times in my replay and never once I got bored by it. That's why I have expectation from Lulu.

In fact, this is undoubtedly the coolest job among all in <Dungeon Activity>. (Open to different opinions)

I'm sure it would be as fun as it was in the game and I want to see it happening personally.

As I have promised, Lulu successfully acquired <Lolita hero> job in 42 minutes, much earlier than what I had expected. But because of this, Lulu seems to be suffering from concussion.

Oops, maybe I went overboard.
