Chapter 15: Ch. 14 – Rain on Dungeon Parade

Come morning I make my way again to the training room. Two of the others are already present and practicing on the training dummies.

I’m actually not sure if disabling the navigator feature would also remove the 100% discount so I’d rather not risk 30% of my MP just to [appraise] them. As buggy as the system is the if-condition it triggers might not just be around the Elly feature but around the whole presence of the title...

I try to greet the two but they pay me no attention, so I start my own training. A few minutes later two more come in, bickering about something. Not my business.

Then Chloe arrives. She looks around and shakes her head. Seems like our seventh person being late is a normal occurrence. No one else stops doing their thing so I also continue running laps.

Right before the first hour of practice is over our missing one graces us with his presence, yawning. Chloe wastes no time to chew him out.

After the fifth hour is up and my SP is again insufficient to continue I head over to Chloe who has been doing her own practices.

"I'm done with my training. Can I blow up some monsters now or do you need to accompany me?"
"I think you can go on your own. Just be back here within two hours."
"Alright."

I make my way over to the gate and climb the tower again. At the top I see three soldiers throwing garbage at the monsters. Seems like my suggestion didn't go to... waste. Well, technically it did.

One of them notices me, "ah, there's the guilty party. Here to show us some more underhanded tricks?"
"What? You'd rather be down there and get your face clawed in?"

"Maybe. At least it sounds better than digging through smelly trash."
"I can see your point. I actually expected they'd just recruit some of the slum dwellers, give them something productive to do", not completely false but...
"Hmph, who wants those around..."

And yet another thing that needs investigating. This is a life or death scenario and people are picky about who they want around, great.

I look down at the monster flood, seems like there are still the same types as yesterday. At least I don't see anything new.

I wanted to try the big 'rain' aoe spell variant with status effect today. I feel 'ice' today, maybe it gets an HP draining cold effect? But I don't really know how big the affected area will be. So I aim as far away as I can see.
