The one that ca forward to et us was Kaito and his group.
These were the ones that had surrounded us yesterday when we ca out of the elevator.
When they appeared, Blaze and the others all revealed frowns as they looked at them.
But Kaito didn't care as his eyes were on the entire ti.
The way that he was looking at seed very strange…
He ca forward and pointed his finger in my face before saying, "We et again my rival! It seed that we really were destined to face each other!"
He kept saying all kinds of different cliche things and with each thing that he said, I was hit with secondhand cringe.
After all, these were all things that I had said in the past…
When he was done, I just calmly said, "Un, it seems that we'll be working together today. I hope that we will work well together."
When he was hit with these calm and logical words, he really didn't know what to do.
After scrambling with his hands for a bit, he finally lowered his head and said in a soft voice, "I'm looking forward to working with you."
The others in his group also said in the sa soft voice, "We look forward to working with you."
After interacting with these kids twice, I finally had a read on them.
They acted this way because…they were simply embarrassed.
They acted this way because they wanted to seem tough, but in truth, they just wanted to introduce themselves and get to know us. They just didn't know how to say this which was why they had acted this way.
For an adult like , it was easy to see this.
But for kids that were only a bit older than Kaito's group, Blaze and the others weren't.
They still thought that they were here to pick a fight, so they looked like they were ready to fight at any mont.
I just raised my hands and cald them down before turning to Kaito to say, "Shall we head to the orientation together?"
Once again he said in a soft voice with his lowered head, "Alright."
I just revealed a faint smile before heading towards the tent that had been prepared for a eting place with everyone following .
When we arrived, I was surprised by how many people were already gathered here.
This amount of people…definitely was much more than the amount of people that were in the raid dungeon group.
But when I looked carefully, I saw that many of the people here were supporters.
They were the ones that were in charge of the things that most people didn't want to be in charge of. They were the ones that took care of the things that Awakeners didn't do so that they could go into the dungeon without a care.
I was surprised to see just how many supporters had been brought along.
Normally, I would never see this many supporters in one place.
But it seed that a raid dungeon really was different.
After coming in, we just quickly found so seats and sat down.
It seed that the eting hadn't started yet, but there were many people that were talking about what to do in the raid dungeon.
For our group that had no experience with raid dungeons, there wasn't much for us to do.
Kaito's group was in the sa situation.
Even if they had joined Elentia before us, it wasn't that long ago before us.
We could be considered in the sa generation, so naturally they hadn't gone into raid dungeons yet either.
This was all a first for us, so we just sat there on the side so we didn't get in the way.
While we were sitting there, the ice slowly broke between our group and Kaito's group.
At first, Blaze and the others didn't seem like they liked Kaito's group very much. But after they started talking, they found that they had more in common than they thought.
It didn't take long for the ice to break between the two groups and they started talking to each other.
The only two that were silent were and Long Shui Ling.
Long Shui Ling was silent because she really didn't have much in common with Kaito's group. Even if she did, it would feel awkward to talk to new people like this since that was the personality that she had.
While they were chatting, I was listening to what the others were saying.
Since this was our first ti in the raid dungeon, it was a good idea to learn as much as possible from everyone else while we still had ti.
There were terms that I didn't understand being thrown around, but it sounded like it was quite important, so I tried to morize everything that I could.
But there were a few things that I did understand.
It seed that the enemies that we would be facing would be mummies and giant scarabs.
That really seed to fit the the of a pyramid based dungeon.
Another half hour passed before the room finally fell silent.
That was because soone had arrived.
This soone was the leader of this raid dungeon group.
It was the A Ranker Tie Gang.
When he ca in, the first thing he did was wave at everyone with a wide smile on his face and say, "Thanks for coming everyone!"
It seed that his personality was still the sa as ever.
There were people that stood up and walked over to greet him. When they did, he talked to each and every one of them as if they were his friends.
So in the end, it took another while before he was able to reach the podium at the front of the tent.
I just stayed on the side since I didn't think that he would rember soone like .
After he reached the podium, that smile disappeared from his face and a serious expression replaced it.
In an instant, it was as if he had beco a completely different person.
