Can someone in MyGo stay in an adventure group forever?

Yao Lena looked at him, blinked in confusion, seemingly not quite understanding why treating someone to a parfait would be associated with her grandmother.

She tilted her head and answered very seriously, "But Grandma is already over 70 years old."

Koshimura Sawa: "???"

Seriously, how did you come up with this thought process?

Wow, there's even a soldier boy!

"Hey, what are you two whispering about? Don't set a bad example for the kids." Shiina Ritsuki saw the two whispering and quickly pulled Koshimura Sawa aside.

“Grandma said before that Ryuna is no longer a child.” Ryuna immediately turned to look at Shiina Tatsuki and said calmly, “So, won’t you play together? Adventure Team.”

Kitty, you don't know this.

Whether you're a child or not is up to her. When she wants you to obey, she says, "You're not a child anymore, you should be more sensible." But when you want to do something that's not something only children can do, she says, "You're still a child."

Double standards are a classic rule in the adult world.

This is real life.

"Um... so what you meant by playing in an adventure group earlier is..." Nagasaki Motoyo couldn't help but ask.

"We need to form an adventure team," Yoro said succinctly.

"Huh? But..." Nagasaki Motoyo glanced at her companion beside her, her meaning quite clear.

There are five of us now.

"Excuse me, would you like to join our adventurer's group?" Takamatsu asked in a low voice.

“Yes, I want to join.” Kaoru nodded without hesitation, “Let’s play Hollow Simulator together.”

"But why choose us?" Nagasaki Motoyo continued, "If you are the granddaughter of [Miracle Crimson], with your talent and strength, shouldn't many other experienced and powerful adventurer groups invite you?"

After thinking for a moment, Yao Lena looked at her and said, "They're all boring women."

"but..."

She turned her head, her heterochromatic eyes focusing once again on Yuecun Ze standing beside her, and her eyes lit up again.

"Interesting man."

"Huh? *2"

Shiina Tatsuki and Chihaya Aion spoke almost simultaneously.

"Wait, wait, wait, this is too sudden!" Chihaya Aine quickly stepped between Kaname and Koshimura, saying, "Besides, we don't even know you, and our adventurer's group of five is already complete. Even if you wanted to join now, there's no one left for you..."

"Um... just so you know, I probably won't be able to do the simulation with you guys this time." Koshimura Sawa raised his hand. "I'll probably just be watching from outside."

"Huh? Why?" Chihaya Aine looked at him in confusion. "I remember Rinrin-senpai said that the bug in the simulated void had been fixed, right?"

"It's fixed, that's true... but the psychological trauma from almost getting roasted pig brains last time is still too much for me." Koshimura Sawa looked shaken. "Besides, can you guarantee there aren't any other undiscovered exploitable vulnerabilities?"

"So this time I'll just be in charge of watching the game. I can help you find fault and identify any problems. As the saying goes, those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly."

“Indeed.” Shiina Tatsuki nodded. “Even if it’s confirmed to be safe, we shouldn’t take such a risk, especially since it’s just a simulation.”

“But we booked a 5-person simulation, and the difficulty of the Hollow is balanced for a 5-person team,” Nagasaki Motoyo pointed out the problem. “Doesn’t that mean we’ll have to challenge a 5-person simulation with only 4 people? Isn’t that a bit too much pressure?”

As soon as she finished speaking, everyone's eyes turned to Kaoruna, who was standing in the center of the room.

Good heavens, was even this part of your plan?

I'm starting to seriously suspect that you ordered someone to roast my brains.

Feeling the gazes of everyone, Yao Le Nai raised her head slightly, a smug smile playing on her lips.

Sigh, they're just used to fill up the numbers for the game, it's ridiculous.

“I know Wildcat’s abilities well. Having her replace Koshimura should be perfectly effective.” Shiina Tatsuki sighed resignedly, acknowledging her temporary addition. “The biggest problem now is…”

As she spoke, she turned her gaze to Chihaya Aine.

"What's wrong?" Chihaya Aine felt a little uncomfortable being stared at and quickly asked.

"Although the [Slime Swamp] is not known for the strength of its monsters, the minimum level requirement is still 3, and the recommended level is at least 4 on average. But I remember you were only level 2 before?" Shiina Tatsuki asked directly.

"Hmph~" Chihaya Aine suddenly laughed, puffing out her chest proudly, "Tachiki's information is really outdated, that was last week."

I understand, but no matter how much you try to hold on, what you don't have won't come to you.

She cleared her throat, put her hands on her hips, and said in a tone as if announcing major news, "I have now successfully broken through to level 3 and become a Dragon Vein Warlock who has mastered 2nd-circle spells!"

　The simulation room fell silent for a moment.

"...Oh." The Echo Knight, who had been training like crazy every day because of someone's provocation and had now advanced to level 4, looked at her expressionlessly and uttered a flat syllable.

"Ah, congratulations, Aine-chan." The Unity Domain Priest, who was just one step away from level 4 and could break through at any moment, read out in a gentle voice.

"tqltql." The newly leveled-up Spellblade sorcerer patted his belly in conviction and clapped his hands.

【What does it mean】

"No, why are you all reacting like this?" Chihaya Aine looked at the others' completely unfazed reactions, her initial smugness instantly replaced by aggrieved feelings. "I finally managed to level up to level 3! It was so hard!"

"Aine-chan, you're amazing..." Takamatsu Akari said sincerely in a low voice.

"Waaah, Xiaodeng is still the best to me."

Chihaya Aine, as if she had found a kindred spirit, rushed over and tried to hug the Spirit Academy bard who was already at the level 3 Great Perfection.

No, that's enough!

"Alright, alright." Shiina Tatsuki quickly stepped in front of Takamatsu Akari. "Since there's no problem with the level, let's not waste any more time and start the simulation. We'll explain the specific ability changes and tactical arrangements in detail once we're inside."

Soon, the group lay down on the mattresses and put on the strangely shaped neural connection glasses.

Koshimura Sawa walked to the observation area, found a seat on a sofa, and looked at the large screen displaying the simulated interior scene.

On the screen, the participants' information began to appear one by one, displayed above their respective profile pictures in the form of their registered names.

[Echo], [Unity], [Star String], [Cat], and... [Invincible Tyrannosaurus Rex God of War]?!

Koshimura Sawa's lips twitched violently as he looked at the pink-haired girl, Chihaya Aine, who had this ID above her head.

So it was you all along?!
