Arcana Mob

" Excuse me, do you have something to say to me?"

Facing the continuous glaring of Elicia, Cade eventually gave up and decided to open his mouth first.

It was clear that the other party wanted to talk with him. But maybe because she wasn't used to making a conversation with another guy, Elicia was a bit awkward at this.

Heck, she even was startled when Cade started talking with her, with eyes that were as if she had just seen a miracle.

" You? Are you talking to me?"

" Hmm? Who else? But if you think I am taking the wrong people, then let me excuse myself."

Cade was just about to leave when he said those words. To him, getting too acquainted with the protagonist group would not be good, and now the villain was about to ask him something. It would be good if he could pretend that nothing had ever happened between them.

Yet, before Cade could even move one step.

Elicia's hand was faster, and she caught Cade when he was off-guard.

" Wait! I don't say that I don't want to talk with you!"

"....."

Certainly, Cade was not pleased with this. But when he saw Elicia's glimmering look, he eventually did not have the heart to reject her.

" *Sigh* I'm all ears now. Can you make it fast?"

Cade was pretty rude with his words. But for some reason, he couldn't see Elicia was getting offended by his words. Rather, she seemed to be pretty much pleased by it.

" *Murmur* Hmm.. to think there would be someone who wouldn't care about social standings when talking to me.. Waku-waku.."

" ???? "

" Ah, sorry! I was getting too full of myself!"

Then, after a cough. Elicia tried to get back her composure.

" Well excuse me, my name is Elicia Holzberg, and can I have the chance to be your partner in this Dungeon Exploration?"

Nani!????

Cade looked left and right, trying to find if he had just heard things wrong.

But after some time, he realized that it wasn't a dream.

" Umm.. it is a bit troubling to me. You know that I have my own group waiting for me. Therefore, I don't think that I could.."

" Hmm.. but from what I've heard, you seemed to be a loner and don't seem to be in a group yet? Unless that my information was wrong.."

Elicia's gesture was so cute. She pointed at her cheek as if thinking, but her words had directly jabbed at Cade's words.

After all, it was true that he was a loner with no friends. It's just all this time he had convinced himself that friends were not necessary.

Cade was still trying to think of a reason so that he could escape this monstrosity, but in the end, it was all too late.

Elicia had already made up her mind, and Cade could only blame himself for not having any other friends to make a group with.

" Hehe, nice to meet you. Hope we could get along Cade!"

" *Sigh* Me too. I'm in your care Eli-"

Cade was just about to finish his words. But soon, he realized something was wrong. If he didn't remember wrong, he hasn't introduced himself yet, so how?

" Wait, I haven't told you my name yet.. So how could you?"

" Ah, it was Isabel-Sensei."

" ….. "

' Hyahahahaha, you are really under the palm of that woman! It was so funny to see you like this, Cade!'

At the end, only Grigory's voice could be heard in Cade's mind as he lept, mocking Cade for being under the thumb of Isabel.

. . . . . .

. . . . . .

It was Cade's first time exploring a Dungeon in real life, and if he was, to be honest. It felt a lot like an abandoned mine.

Wooden pillars and beams were placed at equal distances apart within the wide passage.

Occasionally, there were ores that seemed to protrude from the walls, but those were the dungeon's treasures. There also seems to be a treasure chest left somewhere unnoticed, but its source hasn't been investigated.

Of course, all of those were also available in the games, but because it was just a game, Cade had never put that much thought into it.

Only when he was transported to this world that he began to realize that the treasure chest coming out from empty air seemed to be a bit wrong.

As of now, the Dungeon exploration had begun for almost twenty minutes, and Cade's team was only consisting of him and Elicia.

There might be lots of questions about why Elicia was stuck with Cade and only Cade, but the reason was none other than because as the next heir, she must not rely on her family connection in her first dungeon exploration.

A bit weird for Cade, or maybe it was just the author's laziness to make a reason.

Cade was taking the ores that were buried in the wall.

To Elicia, this might be something that was not worthed any money. But for Cade, they would be the money that helped him survive through the month.

"Fiuh, that's another one."

Cade looked pretty delighted. After all, the money he currently has is limited. And if he wanted to enhance his strength or continue his life, this would be one of his main sources.

"Congrats. That's about $1000."

Elicia was also delighted for Cade. And even though Elicia was the heir of a big family, she was pretty knowledgeable about dungeon ores.

Maybe because her family also managed the dungeon ores business, Cade felt like with Elicia here, his harvest today would not be small.

" Then, let's continue our dungeon exploration!"

" Sure!"

Elicia nodded and followed Cade from behind. Even though Elicia was stronger, she after all has never been in a real dungeon exploration before. Compared to Cade, who had the guide of Grigory, it was pretty obvious for Cade to lead the exploration.

Led by Cade, the two continued to hunt and collect Dungeon Ores.

Grigory's help made them almost impossible to be ambushed, and they could always take the best route, making Cade sure they should be able to score not badly in this first Dungeon Exploration.

But just when the two had some thought about delving deeper in their first Dungeon exploration, the ground suddenly shooked hard, followed by Elicia trembling from behind.

" Cade… that.. that should be a monster parade!"
