"Though, after hearing that legend. It's pretty sad isn't it? The sea dragon was protecting the lake from all the monsters. However, it was killed nonetheless… Why are people so idiotic due to greed?" Maria rubbed her eyes as she sobbed.

"Ugh… It's whatever now. The past is the past. We need to get over it." Sylvie muttered as she looked at the other adventurers who agreed with Maria.

​​

"I wonder if I can find any of the sea dragon's bones or scales still… It should be fairly strong if it was able to withstand the attacks of the sea creatures and also the humans for a very long time…" Lance muttered to himself as he pondered.

"Oi! How can you think of using its bones after such a sad story! Don't you know it protected mankind! We should give it a burial instead!" Maria said as she hit him on the back of his head.

"Ouch! It was just a thought!" Lance said as he held his head in pain.

"Your bad thoughts need to go away! You don't even feel sorry for the poor thing! Do you even have a conscience!?" Maria cried out as she wanted to hit him again.

'What kind of blunder did I do this time? Why is she hitting me? Elise doesn't show any signs of protecting me either…' Lance thought internally as he started to run away from Maria.

"Say, how come I am not the one being hit by Maria this time? Isn't that kind of odd? Usually I would be the one to say something dumb and have her chase after me…" Chad said as he pondered.

"That's because you're an idiot. And she would probably throw you into the Lurking Waters of Death if she just heard what you said." Sylvie said as she looked at him.

"No way! I was just stating the truth! Why would she throw me in there for no reason? I didn't make fun of her. Or insult her in any way…" Chad cried out as he couldn't think of a reason as to why she would do that.

"Were you dropped as a child or something? Can you really not think of a reason why you would be thrown for saying something like that?" Sylvie muttered as she glanced at him before looking away.

"Is your group always like that?" A female adventurer asked Sylvie. She was in her teens and wore a white robe while holding a staff. She had the typical healer get-up.

"Well… More or less I suppose? There isn't really anyone normal in this group. We are missing one though. We kind of forgot about her back at home so… We don't really want to go back right now, unless we want to incur her wrath." Sylvie replied while turning around to see who was talking to her.

"What an interesting batch you are… How do you even forget one of your own members…" The female adventurer muttered as she decided to reevaluate everyone again.
