Chapter 97: What They Want ToDo

The situation at the border fort was different from what we had seen in the past.

The traffic was once supposed to be quiet, with almost no one passing by.

Now there are a good number of players out there.

"Thousands of visitors! Not quite ......, but you're far more crowded than before! No, thank you!"

"I'm sure you'll be pleased to know that I'm not the only one. So, where are the important licorice girls ......?"

Pulling on the reins of his dismounted horse, he walked around near the entrance to the fort on the Sarra side, looking for the three of them.

It may seem persistent, but Gladturk is very noticeable because of its large size.

There were no players talking to us, but there were a few glimpses of ...... who looked twice at the horse we were riding, then looked at us and walked past as if they were satisfied.

So, if possible, it would be easier if you could find us from there.

After walking around for a while, I couldn't get anywhere, so I tried to open the menu screen to check my location on the map.

"Oh, Miss Yumir! Senior Hind!"

A cheerful voice echoed around me, and Licorice came running up to me, waving her hands and bouncing up and down.

After that, Saineria-chan followed with a beautiful posture and Siesta-chan walked sluggishly with her back rounded.

"Good evening. I hope you have a good time with us today."

"Good evening, seniors. ...... That horse is conspicuous, isn't it? Everyone's looking at you."

Good, we met up smoothly.

Siesta-chan was right, it was conspicuous and got in the way of traffic, so I moved to a less popular place without saying hello.

A little beyond the border fort, at the edge of a safe area where monsters don't appear.

We had only heard that the girls wanted to go to Sala, so Yumir asked about a specific destination first.

"So where do you guys want to go in Sala?"

"Of course, Waja in King's Landing! Rather, we want to set up our home near the guild Migratory Bird!"

"Near our guild?

"I'd be happy to be a parasite on the seniors, or at least teach the three of us a few things."

"You're not hiding your true feelings at all, ....... Um, she's like this, but Rico is not lying, she' s a pure admirer, so! Please do this for me!"

Cinerea-chan concluded.

Licorice, you really like Yumir, don't you?

Yumir, who was on the other side of that longing gaze, said with a thoughtful look.

"Wouldn't it be better if the three of you joined our guild?"

The words made Licorice's eyes shine for a moment, but then she immediately turned into a pouting face.

What's going on? And we're wondering, .......

"I'm very happy to be invited, but I'm not sure what time I'll be available. ......"

"Tonight is the weekend, so we have more time, but our main login time is around 7 p.m. on weekdays. ......"

"If you join, it will be hard for us to contribute to the guild because we can't help you," these two said. I told them that the seniors were open-minded and would be fine."

"Sure, we don't care about your contribution to the guild, but isn't it strange that Siesta-chan would say that?"

If that's the case, there's no need to pressure her.

Yumir and I looked at each other and nodded.

However, I have one suggestion for the girls.

"If that's the case, why don't you guys form a guild and form an alliance with the migratory birds? That way, we only have to interact with each other when we have time."

"Oh, that's good! That's a good suggestion, Hind!"

Guild alliances are, as the name implies, horizontal connections between guilds that cooperate as needed.

There are a variety of uses for ......, such as production guilds and combat guilds sharing roles in the game, or recruiting people from two or more guilds for a large event.

In terms of the game, being in an alliance gives you access to the facilities of both guild homes, as well as bonuses to the guild's experience accumulated through combat and production.

When Licorice and the others heard this, they looked surprised at my sudden suggestion.

Then she asked, "Can the three of us discuss this?" I said I wouldn't mind, and she squatted down in a small circle some distance away from us.

"Sorry, Yumir. It was an overstepping of my authority, wasn't it? Maybe I shouldn't have said that without you, Guild Leader."

"I don't care what you say! Your word is my word!"

"I'm even afraid of over-reliance. ...... Well, if you say it's good, it's good.

These girls had gotten to know Selene through the tournament, and they would have no problem coming and going from the guild as they pleased.

Perhaps the other three shouldn't object ......, but now I'm starting to think I'm getting a little ahead of myself.

It would be too unfair to the other members of the group to make such an important decision with just the two of us, Ymir and I.

So I hurriedly contacted them by e-mail, and all three immediately replied in the affirmative.

The other members didn't like it, so we decided to skip it! I can't say that now, and I'm relieved to hear this.

I'll be very careful next time. ......

Anyway, I've gotten everyone's approval, so now it's up to these kids in front of me.

After a while, the three of them stood up, and Licorice bowed her head and said on behalf of the three.

"I've made my decision! -Please help us! Please form an alliance with the guild we're about to create!"

"Please take care of us!"

"Here we go."

"Yeah, I got it! Nice to meet you too!"

"Nice to meet you, all three of you."

With the promise of an alliance made, it was time to leave for Sala.

The girls had also participated in the PvP tournament qualifiers, so their level was around 40, no problem.

So we decided to split up into a Gradturk to make our way crisply towards King's Landing. ......

"Senpai. Should I say the standard lines like "I'm guessing..."?"

"You don't have to say anything. ......"

I realized that I had naturally decided to ride with this combination without any trouble.

Over there, Yumir, Licorice, and Cinerea are riding together.

And here's Siesta and me, riding together.

As I straddle the Gradturk, Siesta-chan is unnecessarily tight against my back.

Furthermore, the vicious feeling of the second time in the tournament made me stiffen up.

Is it my imagination, or does Yumir seem to be staring at me silently, which is unusual?

My instincts are telling me that ...... this is not going to work.

"I'll hold the reins, but you're not very tall, so I don't think you'll obstruct my view."

"I see. ...... Are you more interested in the buttocks? Or is it the hair ...... or the nape of the neck or the back?"

"What's the big deal? We're speaking the same language now, aren't we? I'm getting less and less confident. ......"

Somehow I managed to convince Siesta-chan to sit in front of me.

Immediately after she started moving, she was scurrying around, admiring the height of the viewpoint on the horse, but eventually she got bored and put her back completely against me and relaxed.

She began to swoon in her sleep, as if to say, "I leave the rest to you."

"You're fast asleep. ......"

Siesta-chan's hair smelled sweet, like candy.
