“How about you cook for them? Bonding with your teammates is helpful, and these Bandit won will definitely be more amiable once you’ve made sothing.” Calypso had encouraged . “Tomorrow morning, you will join them on the descent to the bottom floor. Once you reach my boss room, we will et again. Help defeat them, and I will officially take you on as my disciple.”
Bond with the girls? That really wasn’t a problem. However, I was sweating as I cooked. All five girls were around as I made food over a fire. Nothing about this was abnormal, except that Calypso was watching over us, and Salicia was nearby as a guard dog. It left the entire campsite sowhat silent. Of course, that was only to Salicia and Calypso. As for , it was extrely noisy as I tried to juggle conversations with all five won. Of course, while I could open up connections between them and , the girls couldn’t talk to each other.
“I don’t understand why I’m not allowed to say a word.” Celeste responded pouty.
“Did you make sure to order Celeste to be quiet. She’ll definitely speak and ruin everything!” Terra’s voice ca in shortly after.
I didn’t just have to juggle five conversations in my head, but I had to also pass ssages between the girls that they wanted to say which would tip Calypso off if spoken out loud. While doing that, I had to cook a good al and let none of it show on my face. Calypso seed almost oblivious to the strange expressions and glances that the girls shared. Even so, this was really difficult for , and I had to admit that without the Mimic job smoothing out my features and refining my acting, I would probably have already collapsed from the pressure. I was extrely thankful to whatever deity decided to randomly hand that skill already partially leveled.
Slowly, I sorted everyone out, explaining everything, including the state of Salicia. Naturally, there was much to say about what happened, and where we would be going. As for Calypso’s plan to ultimately kill all of them, I naturally explained what we can do instead.
“Master, we need to be able to discuss a plan openly.” Terra spoke up.
“I would love to, but she is the Dungeon Master of this place. She can potentially see and hear anything. Any secret etings we have could be easily exposed. Right now, it’s odd, but she seems to trust . I think it might be because of my blessings. I have an affinity for miasma, which I believe is causing her to put her guard down around .”
“There is one place where we can et.” She explained.
“Hmm? Where?” I asked a bit surprised.
“Ah? I thought Master knew? The safe room.”
Admittedly the room was safe, but Calypso could still find us there.
“About that…”
“Dungeon Master’s can’t sense in the room. Unless she’s in there with us, she won’t know what is said or done. She also won’t know if we teleport to other safe rooms until we leave.”
“In other words, once we get to level 5, we can finally make a plan!”
