Volume 1: Chapter 20 - Invitation from the Clan
When I opened the door, I found myself in a place that looked like a cafeteria crowded with people.
The image was similar to that of a food court in a shopping mall.
When I turned around, I saw a row of doors along the wall.
These doors all lead to the Beginning Room, and no matter where you enter, you can get to your room.
The reason there are so many doors is probably to avoid congestion.
「Let's see, the reception desk is ...... over there.」
I followed the signs that were kindly posted.
Many people were dressed in suits of armor, but I also saw a few people wearing jerseys like me.
I guess that means they are all beginners.
「You there, can I have a word?」
I was approached by a macho man in leather armor.
I couldn't see any weapons around his waist, and he was not equipped with a shield.
「Judging from your outfit, you must be a newcomer, right?」
「Yes, well.」
「Have you registered with the guild yet?」
「No, I'm just about to now.」
「I see. If you have any fighting skills, can we talk to you after you register? I'd like to invite you to join our clan, Iron Fist.」
「A clan?」
「Right. You know the clan system?」
「Yes. I've been briefed on it.」
A clan is a group of explorers consisting of several dozen members.
Each clan has its own characteristics, and the "Iron Fist" to which he belongs, as the name suggests, emphasizes fighting skills.
But I don't have any fighting skills yet.
Well, let's just say I didn't have a chance this time.
「I'm sorry, but――」
「You'd better stop recruiting that one, leader.」
Just as I was about to refuse, another man interrupted.
The guy who came after me was as big as he was, but I recognized him from somewhere.
「He came here the same day as me.」
Oh, he was here on the first day.
Now that he mentions it, I remember him.
He had his arms crossed and was silent the whole time, so I heard his voice for the first time now, but it was as thick as I imagined from his appearance.
「Mmm, the same day as you mean......」
「Today is the 10th day since I came here. That means he hasn't even registered with the guild, let alone dive into a dungeon after 10 days」
「I see, so that's how it is ...... Have you been in the beginning room all this time?」
「Yes, I have.」
「Why?」
「Well, I'm just trying to prepare for a lot of things.」
「Preparations, man. ......」
They gave me a mocking smile at my words.
What's with these guys?
I feel a little sick.
「What kind of preparations were you doing without registering as explorers and without any preparation money?」
「What, you ask, well, various things ......」
I don't know why, but I think it's best not to talk about <Angel Summon>.
「Did you need mental preparation to leave the room? Sometimes there are people like you who can't accept reality and stay in until the last minute.」
「Haah」
「That kind of feeble-mindedness is not befitting of an "Iron Fist". I'm sorry, but let's pretend we never had this conversation.」
With that, the man called the leader turned on his heel, and left.
The man I met on the first day also snickered, and then followed the leader.
「What the heck was that?」
What is this feeling of being rejected even though I didn't confess .......
I'm a little angry, but I'd better not get involved with those guys.
Let's get the registration done quickly.
「Levels are everything in dungeon exploration! If you join "Overkill", I will raise your level up to level 5 with 【Exp Crystal】 before your first dive!」
「Now you can get R or higher equipment as a gift!! "Armor of Light" is recruiting clan members!!」
「If you have magic skills, please join "Thunder Steel"!! You can upgrade any attribute to NP now!!」
「Come here! Hero with initial skills above SR!! "Ace of Spades" is waiting for the chosen one!!」
Various clans seem to be recruiting members.
There was a crowd of newcomers in jerseys, but I went through and headed for the reception desk.
