“So your INT must be high, huh? No wonder you refuse to tell us. Is it because of a grinding spot?” Robert started trying to sew discord between Ren and others.

He wanted to redirect the girls’ attention to how Ren could possibly have a very high magic damage this early in the game.

“That’s right. How did you do it? I mean, I couldn’t even land one hundred damage to that thing, and my INT is the highest amongst us,” Lucia said, eyes squinting at Ren. Could it really be a grinding spot? If so, she wanted to know.

Ren looked at Lucia’s face. She had crooked teeth and sharp canines, which added to her cuteness. She was the most willful amongst the women in Silvia’s group.

“You don’t need to concern yourself with my ATP,” Ren said matter of factly at Robert. “Like you who refused to educate everyone even with your experience as a veteran player, as I quote, isn’t part of your job . . . discussing my ATP is also isn’t part of my job.

“I’m here for two things only, the firstblood and my equipment. Nothing else,” said Ren with an unwavering voice.

Lucia stepped back when she realized she couldn’t use her charms against Ren. She pouted and harrumphed to the side. “So stingy.”

The corners of Robert’s lips twitched before he directed his focus on the chest on which Vida and Jack already took part in checking.

“I’ll open it.” Robert immediately went to the chest, which didn’t sit well with the ladies.

Robert and his friends didn’t even participate in the fight, and yet he acted like he was the one who killed the Lava Hound.

How shameless could you be?

The women’s favorable impression of Robert and his companions before was utterly destroyed.

Silvia cursed Sumeri in her head as to why she recommended this kind of person to her.

Was she sabotaging her guild because she couldn’t play the game? Silvia jokingly thought to herself.

After she was done in this dungeon, she and her had to have a heart-to-heart talk.

“Shouldn’t we go there, mister?” Nikolai asked Ren when the latter didn’t join the others in circling the only chest on the altar.

“No. We’ll get a notification of the items even if we’re not there.”

“Is that so?” Nikolai rubbed his hands together. “I wonder what’s in there.”

He then addressed Ruru, who was standing not far from Ren, secretly admiring Pii on Ren’s neck.

“What do you think, Ruru?”

Ruru was still mesmerized by Pii, and she answered in a daze, “A pet would be nice. Even just an egg.”

[ACQUIRED!

? Health Potions x5

? White Staff x1

? Iron Helm x1

? Aqua Douse x5

“Wow, look at this. There’s actually a helmet in the chest and a staff.” Jack’s eyes shone. “We’re so lucky.”

Rosie frowned while Rafaela rolled her eyes.

“And who is it that said that we wouldn’t find anything here?” muttered Alicia.

Everyone was showing their discontent, and it was further fuelled when Robert announced.

“The White Staff will go to Vida, and it goes without saying that the Iron Helmet belongs to me.”

“Huh? What the fuck do you mean, belong to you?! You didn’t even help kill that Lava Hound!” Lucia couldn’t help but burst out.

Rosie stopped her, took a step forward, and said with a calm tone but foreboding pair of seductive red eyes. “Please enlighten us. Why would this treasures belong to you when it was us who did all the work?”

Robert merely smiled. “Oh, have you forgotten our deal already? You guys said that you don’t care about the loot as long as you get firstblood. And that I got to take first pick and fifty percent of the rewards. Or did you suddenly have a change of mind?”

“. . .”

The women were indignant. They wouldn’t have said anything if only Robert and his friends had helped them with the Lava Hound.

Silvia took a step forward. “Robert, we didn’t even get firstblood yet. We should divide the loot after we’re done here.”

Vida shook her head and said with a condescending voice. “We should equip these items now than waste them. It would add to our chance of defeating Vulcan.”

Lucia cut in with a snarling tone showing her canines. “If we’re going to equip it, then that staff should belong to one of us.”

“Easy there, or you might pop a vessel,” joked Jack. “We’re the Main unit remember? It’s only natural that the priority is us.”

“Then at least give that staff to Pamela,” argued Rafaela with her soft tone and angelic face.

The girls nodded while Pamela shrunk at the mention of her name. She hated being in the spotlight, but she was also against Robert claiming the loot for themselves.

Robert sighed and faced Silvia. “If you’re going to be like this, forgetting about our deal, then we might as well part ways here.”

. . .

. . .

Alicia crossed her hands and smirked. “Go ahead. You’ll do us a favor. I don’t even know why we hired you in the first place when you’re not even going to help and had the gal to steal our loot.”

Here we go, Ren thought. All things were good and all, and all promises were made at the beginning, but in the face of a treasure, all of those disappeared.

It was exactly like this in the past, and nothing changed.

It was just a White Staff and Iron Helmet which could be bought in towns later. Nothing to be fussing over.

“Silvia, let’s just kick them out and be done with it,” said Lucia. Rosie and Alicia seconded in agreement.

Silvia had a headache. She took a glance in Ren’s direction and cursed under her breath when the latter didn’t even help her defuse the situation. It was his idea to find a tank in the first place.

Though Robert and his friends weren’t ideally the best companions, they still needed a Tank. Silvia was made aware of it with their current fight with the Lava Hound.

Without a Tank, their mages would be annihilated. Nikolai could only do so much before his [Taunt] ran out. And his DEF and skills weren’t exactly Tank material either. All her crew had weak DEF, and they needed someone to absorb the damage.

As infuriating as it was, they still needed Robert. Without him, they wouldn’t last in this cave. Even if Ren had high magic damage, he depended on his MP, casting time, and cooldown.

Without a Tank, Pamela and the other Mages were at risk of being annihilated even before Ren could cast anything.

This was no time to be thinking about items. She had to think in the long run, and the important thing was to secure firstblood.

They could just re-enter again and get those items and loot.

Silvia raised her hand, and the ladies stopped, closing their mouths shut.

“Excuse us,” Silvia said to Robert before pushing Pamela and her crew to the side.

“We still need him,” Silvia said as soon as they huddled together away from Robert’s prying ears.

“Need him? Those guys are jerks!” Lucia spat.

“Shh . . . manners,” Rafaela reprimanded while Lucia rolled her eyes and stuck out her tongue.

“What do we even need them for?” Rosie asked and batted an eyelid at Robert and his friends. “They didn’t even help us. He claimed to be the leader, but he didn’t do anything but claim our loots. He’s a lich.”

“Didn’t you see our fight a while ago?” Silvia asked.

“Oh yeah. It was a disaster,” Alecia snickered.

Silvia ignored her and explained, “Most of our team are mages. If they pull out now, then all of you will be targeted first.”

“But that guy didn’t even help out. What’s the difference?” Rosie whined.

“The difference is,” Silvia took a deep breath, “We have a Tank when facing against Vulcan. And that at least boosts our chance to get firstblood.”

A/N

Is my English so bad?

I don’t have an editor and not a native speaker.

I think my English is simple and understandable except for a few misspelled words since I sometimes gloss over them when I edit. but I don’t think it’s so bad to the point that it couldn’t be understood anymore.

Or is it just me and I’m speaking alien without even knowing it? ??????
