Chapter 102: The First Dungeon (7)

Jake wasn't antisocial or so intent on playing solo much that he'd suspect Prince's intentions.

He'd not mind spending time with other players and meeting new friends. This man was also a whale, so having this connection would be cool and potentially useful for the future.

With everything laid bare, Jake decided to agree with Prince's offer.

He turned to his sister and asked her, "Are you fine with this?"

The woman nodded, "I'm Paladin. I'll practice my support skills on you two while you work. No time wasted."

That was an excellent quality!

Jake smiled and nodded, "I see. I think we should have a proper introduction. I'm Archer. Nice to meet you."

The Paladin Lady faintly curved her lips and extended her hand for a handshake, "Sin Blackberry."

Jake hand clasped her greetings without any qualms.

Prince's sharp eyes overlooked the interaction. When no harm was done, he grew more fond of his black horse and snatched his attention back.

Once again, Prince spoke about the accessories.

Jake didn't have time to think about them. He wasn't rich, nor did he have a steady influx of income. He'd rather spend most of his money on archery and the resources required to consistently increase his proficiency and skills.

Accessories, therefore, were at the back of his head.

That said, Jake could use a few of them.

Now that he looked at Sin Blackberry from a close distance, he noticed she wore dazzling earrings, rings, bracelets, and even necklaces. She was equipped from head to toe with the real meaning of this phrase.

"I could use anything that helps with mana regeneration," Jake said. It was one of his worries before coming here. During his casual quest with Mary and Robert, Jake was compelled to drink mana potions to keep up with the abundance of monsters.

"From my experience, I'm nearly confident that one percent of this ring's mana is five hundred mana points. You're good to go, my black horse!" Prince exclaimed, patting Jake's back.

Jake, however, was so stunned by this encounter that he gazed only at the ring on his palm. It would help him in so many of his endeavors that he unconsciously smiled from ear to ear.

Prince grasped his helmet with both hands and shook his head, "Ah, this reaction truly triggers my artistic senses! It makes me want to move the plot forward, to sail out on a journey right now! In this unexpected twist of fate, we're no longer a team of two but three! How much can we achieve?! What awaits us? Ah, I can't wait!

Off we go! Follow me in my wake, my dear sister, my black horse! For I am your black knight! Your tank!"

Jake muttered to himself, "He sounds so cringe but it somehow suits him? It must be his voice."

"Yes. His voice has been praised by many," Sin Blackberry added.

These two stood abreast and were like the secondary characters to Prince's grand glamor. Since Jake didn't have any pioneering plans on this journey, he didn't mind this setting.

Sin Blackberry also preferred to stay away from her brother when he was in his artistic zone.

She said, "The Dungeon Of The Warmonger Forest is teemed by players. We usually would fight people before entering the dungeon, but we're now in possession of the accessory with the invisibility skill, which will help us enter inside."

Jake squinted his eyes, "Wouldn't it be better not to wear any of the high-quality equipment, then? At least keep them off until entering the dungeon."

Sin Blackberry asked back, "Isn't that a loser mentality?"

These two looked into each other's eyes.

That was when Jake realized that he was pretty similar to these two. He didn't want to hide his companions because he wanted to show them the world and nurture his bond with them.

If he kept them hidden and waited for the best moment to summon them, he would have avoided his clash with the group of players of a spoiled woman.

Jake smiled, "It is."

He called his companions, surprising the duo.
