36. Arcana Online
36. Arcana Online
I turned off the loudly ringing alarm and stayed in bed for a while, feeling dazed.
It's a problem not having energy in the morning.
I wasn't like this before, but since my body changed, I've been like this. Could it be low blood pressure?
I struggled to get up and had breakfast with the leftover lunchbox from yesterday in the kitchen.
After visiting the bathroom, I went to my room, put on the gear, and logged into Arcana Online, where Yong-yong welcod .
"Kyuung!"
"Did you sleep well?"
"Kyuuung!"
I took out a magic stone for him, stretched, and got up from the bed to pack my things.
It's ti to leave now.
I need to stop by the guild headquarters to report, and I have to do the task I was asked to do.
Last night, Grandpa Kraken asked for a favor.
He was worried about his youngest daughter who left ho without any news and asked to look into it.
[A quest has arrived.]
Investigate the whereabouts of the runaway youngest daughter.
Reward: Experience, Affinity.
After finishing preparations and going outside, nurous Sirens were waiting.
The Siren Queen bowed her head to , which surprised , and all the other Sirens bowed their heads too.
"Savior, we thank you once again for saving our clan. The Siren clan will accompany you on your journey."
[You have acquired a title.]
Companion of the Sirens.
After the greeting, she handed a bead.
«Comrcial City of Thalassa Map»
It looks like a bead, but it's a map.
When I used the bead, a familiar voice flowed out.
[Route guidance will begin.]

When I first set foot on land, I was moved.
How long has it been since I've been on land?
The emotional mont was brief. I took out a teleport scroll from my inventory and tore it, and with a bright light, I arrived in the comrcial city of Thalassa.
Teleport scrolls can't be used for places you haven't been to before, and they're expensive, but definitely convenient.
"I'm back!"
I opened the headquarters door and entered, but no one was there?
Only my voice echoed, and there was no one inside.
Did everyone go out on quests?
I threw myself onto the sofa in the living room and felt its softness.
While playing and joking around with Yong-yong, the door opened and Sasha unni ca in.
Her beast-kin ears twitched, and I wanted to touch them just once.
"Our youngest! When did you arrive!?"
"I just got here."
"Did you co early because you're looking forward to the party tonight!?"
"Huh? Party?"
We looked at each other with surprised eyes, and Sasha unni asked if I didn't know.
What party is she talking about?
"Didn't you hear from the leader? She said she sent a ssage."
"A ssage? I didn't receive anything."
After pondering for a while, Sasha unni took out a ssenger bird from her inventory and used it.
After waiting a bit, a reply arrived from Rea unni.
"She says she sent it, so there must have been a mix-up. But it's fine since you ca back in ti!"
Sasha unni smiled brightly and stroked my head.
Our first eting was as a stalker, but she's a good unni.
"By the way, youngest."
At that mont, Sasha unni looked at with a serious expression.
"Why don't you call unni?"
"Uh, unni?"
"Why do you call 'nuna'!? Say 'unni'! Unni!"
She forced to say "unni," but I exercised my right to remain silent.
Looking at , she started out forceful but eventually began to plead.
Just call her Sasha unni once, she said.
"Sasha nuna is Sasha nuna!"
"What does that even an!?"
"Explaining that itself isn't like you, nuna!"
"So what is it!?"
The conversation that continued for a while only stopped when Rea unni returned.
"Rea unni! Sasha nuna is bullying !"
"When did I!?"
Rea unni smiled brightly and drew her twin dragon swords.
Seeing that, Sasha nuna ran away in fright.
"If she bullies you again, just tell anyti."
"Okay!"
Is this what having a guardian is like?
It feels reassuring.
More importantly, didn't you say there's a party tonight?
"What's the party tonight about?"
"It's a regular social party."
Although it's a guild that focuses on individual activities, they gather periodically for parties to prepare for tis when they need to work as a group.
As we set up food bought from the market area and prepared for the party, guild mbers started coming in one by one.
Among them, two guild mbers I was eting for the first ti entered the headquarters.
A sister with black hair and alluring ruby-like eyes, wearing assassin's clothing and a mask.
Following her, an elderly grandfather wearing knight's formal attire.
It's my first ti seeing their faces.
The masked sister who was looking at intently suddenly picked up.
"Hello? My na is Luna. Nice to et you."
"Hello. My na is Yuna."
Luna unni stared intently at as I dangled.
As I was feeling awkward, the grandfather helped .
"Isn't the new mber uncomfortable?"
"Shut up, old man."
"Who are you calling old man!? Is this how you treat your elders!?"
"False teeth."
As the two of them fought back and forth, I just wanted to be put down.
The grandfather, whose face had turned red, introduced himself as Richard.
"You can call uncle comfortably."
"Do you want to be called that by soone who could be your granddaughter?"
"Then what should I be called!"
"Clack clack dentures."
Just as they were about to co to blows, Rea unni intervened and stopped the fight.
"Those two are always like that, so don't worry about it."
Rea unni took from Luna unni and put down on the floor.
"Leader, that's an."
"Who do you think is enjoying this!? I've been saying this for a long ti..."
"Really. Are you going to keep doing this in front of the new mber?"
Now the three of them were fighting, and it was a ss.
Still, thanks to Rea unni saving , I was able to escape.
As I entered the party room to finish the party preparations, soone was eating the food.
The pervert with his upper body exposed. No, Balak oppa.
"How can you eat when we're preparing for the party!?"
He glanced at , then approached holding a donut.
What's this?
"Mmph!"
"Now the youngest is an accomplice too."
After forcibly putting the donut in my mouth, he whispered that I was an accomplice.
A pervert, an exhibitionist, and shaless.
"Mmph mmph mmph!!"
"That's right, eat a lot."
I waved my arms in rebellion, saying to stop putting more in, but he kept putting more in while laughing, until he saw Rea unni's twin dragon swords behind and ran away.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm so full..."
As I was rubbing my stomach, which had beco bloated from the donuts, Rea unni told to rest.
As I was resting on the sofa, it seed like it was ti, and guild mbers started gathering one by one, starting with Sasha unni who had gone out.
Guild Master Catlleya.
Fighter Sasha.
Mage Hecate.
Berserker Balak.
Nun Aria.
Assassin Luna.
Knight Richard.
Summoner Yuna.
All 8 mbers of the Frey Guild, consisting of a total of 8 people, gathered in one place.
Starting with Rea unni's toast, we chatted about various things.
"By the way, is it forbidden to talk about unique characteristics in this ga?"
"That's right! That's why I got kicked out when I entered the youngest's broadcast."
The ga company, which doesn't interfere no matter what you do, only forbade talking about unique characteristics.
They say that even if you post it on the community, it gets deleted within 1 second, so you can't know unless you actually et and talk.
"Unique characteristics are ant to show that every human is noble and special."
"That's why there's only one rank."
"What? There's only one rank?"
Even equipnt items have various ranks, but unique characteristics only have one rank?
"I can say this. The rank of unique characteristics is the sa for all players. EX rank."
This is the first ti I've learned about this.
Listening to Rea unni's explanation, there are many people in existence, but while there may be similar people, there are no identical people.
The ga company also wrote in the notice that all players, that is, travelers, are all special, noble, and have infinite potential, but why didn't I see it?
I must not have looked.
"How to utilize your unique characteristic is entirely up to the player."
After listening to Rea unni's explanation, I thought about it carefully, and it makes sense.
I used my unique characteristic to gain favor and used magic stones to strengthen it.
Even low-rank magic stones start from 100,000 won in cash, and top-rank magic stones are priceless.
If I had converted all of that to cash, it would be enough to build several buildings.
But I used it all on monsters.
Saving monsters living in suffering, and further creating a world where they can live peacefully.
For that, a revolution is needed.
Sasha unni, smiling, asked what my future plans were.
"I'm going to wave the flag of revolution!"
Hearing my words, everyone was surprised but laughed it off, thinking it was a joke.
It's not a joke though.
