Chapter 360 New Party
Chapter 360 New Party
After finishing their meal, Shiro had Lisandra follow her as the rest of the party went to a dungeon.
"Now then, since it would take a while to go to Japan if we walked, let’s go find a party that can help us teleport there. I would preferably like it if we can get into Tokyo straight away but anywhere close will do as well." Shiro said with a smile.
"Mn. Before that, are you sure it’s ok to give them those items? If other people see the party full of growth type weapons, wouldn’t it get dangerous?" Lisandra asked in concern.
"Nah it’s fine. Plus, I’ve already installed disguise systems into the items so that whenever it ’evolves’ into the next level, the appearance and name would change along with it. That way, it doesn’t look suspicious now does it?" Shiro chuckled.
"I see. Cautious as always mum." Lisandra smiled.
"I wouldn’t say that since I’m still giving people a chance of discovering nanobots." Shiro shook her head.
"Anyways, enough about that. Let’s go try look for a party that can take us to japan. There’s no teleport shrine here so we’ll probably have to travel with them for a while."
Leading Lisandra to the adventurers guild, Shiro made a few disguises for the both of them. It was just a different outfit and a mask so that they won’t get discovered. Plus, Shiro also tied her hair into a ponytail.
Doing the same to Lisandra, they entered the adventurer’s guild.
"Excuse me, are there any parties that can help us to Japan?" Shiro asked the receptionist.
"Hm... I don’t know. You’ll probably need to put up a commission by the mission board and provide them a reward for taking you. It’s either that or you can look for parties at the ’searching for members’ section." The receptionist replied with a smile. While she couldn’t see Shiro nor Lisandra’s faces, it wasn’t an uncommon occurrence for people to be hiding their face so she wasn’t too bothered.
"I see. Thank you." Shiro nodded with a smile and walked over to the terminals that were set up around the hall.
Navigating to the searching for members section, she looked for any requests that involved going to Japan.
Unfortunately, at this moment, there seemed to be none that would take her to japan.
"Hmm... seems like we’ll have to post a request then." Shiro furrowed her brows.
[Searching for someone that can take us to Japan.]
Party Leader: Nytri (Level 100 Element Sage)
Current Party Members: Lisa (Level 100 Sword Sage)
Rewards: 10 Silver Erins + level 100 piece of armour
Posting this quest, Shiro was about to turn around and leave when she received a notification that people have applied to join. Each of the requests were attached with a message that asked her about the legitimacy of the reward.
Sending a message to all of them saying that they should meet her at one of the tables in the guild so that it’s easier to talk, she chose the one near the window and told that to each of them.
Sitting down, it didn’t take too long for people to appear.
"Are you Nytri who posted the quest?" A man asked as Shiro nodded.
[Jonathan LVL 93 – Dragon Fist Warrior]
He had short black hair and a rather muscular body physique.
"Great. One of my party members has a link with a Teleport Shrine in Kyoto japan. While it may not be the closest to Tokyo, you can easily take a bullet train there." The man smiled.
"Hmm... I only really need one person though. That’s why I posted 10 silvers." Shiro replied while looking at the map of Japan from behind her mask. Since it’s something created by her nanobots, she could easily install a map of japan from the internet.
’Kyoto is to the west of Tokyo. The good thing is that in between them is Mount Fuji so I can check that out while I travel to Tokyo.’ Shiro thought to herself.
"That’s fine. Our party consists of three people so you can just split it among us."
"Hold it!" A voice cut in.
Looking over, they saw a group of people approaching.
"First come first serve. I was here first." The man replied with a frown.
"So what, your checkpoint is too far from Tokyo. Miss Nytri, my party can take you directly to Tokyo. How about it? Why not recruit us?"
Looking over at the newcomers, Shiro only raised an eyebrow.
’Hmm... since I got two months to burn, I might as well just go with the first party to Tokyo.’ Shiro mused to herself.
"It’s fine. I’m going with the first party since I can go somewhere I wanted on the way to Tokyo. Thank you for your offer though." She replied and closed the request.
Gesturing for the first man to follow her, both she and Lisandra stood up and left for another table.
"Damn, too late." The second party sighed and decided to look for a different party.
###
"Anyways, why not some introductions?" Shiro gestured while ordering some snacks.
"Right. My name is Jonathan. A level 93 Dragon Fist Warrior. My other party members consist of Ryota, a level 90 Solari Archer and Jasmine, a level 93 Royal Paladin." Jonathan introduced while showing her a picture of his party members.
Ryota had short black hair, a lean physique and wore a sleeveless armoured chest pieces with a waist cloth and some black pants.
As for Jasmine, she had blond hair tied into a braid as she wore a set of heavy plate armour. In her left hand, she carried a shield that was almost as big as her while in her right, she held a sword.
"As for me, my name is Nytri and this is my daughter Lisa. We’re both level 100s with me being a mage type and her being a fighter type." Shiro replied with a smile.
’So young!’ Jonathan widened his eyes since from what he could tell, Shiro seemed quite young with how her voice sounded.
Talking for a little bit longer in terms of how they were going to do things, Shiro then filled out a form and gave it to the receptionist.
"Right then, where do we need to go to find your party members?" She asked with a smile.
"Oh they’re just waiting in our hotel room. I’ll show you the way." Jonathan nodded.
"Mn, so are you part of any faction?" Shiro asked since it may take a while for them to go to the hotel. Might as well ask some questions to break the ice.
"Factions? Yeah we’re all part of Terra’s Might. The branch building is just down the road. What about you?"
"We’re both part of Winter’s Grace."
"I see. Thankfully, our factions are not enemies haha." Jonathan laughed.
It was common for factions to have conflicts in Vericia. For Winter’s Grace, their main enemy was Shattered Dynasty while Terra’s Might was mostly neutral except that they didn’t like Shadow Temple.
"Mn."
Arriving at the hotel, Jonathan signed in and entered one of the elevators.
"Ryota is a little... strange but if you can look past that, it’ll be fine." Jonathan warned as they prepared to enter the room.
"I’m sure I’ll be fine with it." Shiro smiled. Her entire party was weird so this should be nothing to her.
Nodding his head, Jonathan opened the door but the next scene almost caused Shiro to immediately turn her heels and run.
"Hehe~"
"Damn it Ryota! Stop making that disgusting face! I knew it! You wanted to steal my pudding so that I’ll hit you!" Jasmine cried out as she was currently just wearing a shirt and some short pants.
"You know the more you step on me the happier I am." Ryota laughed while holding onto a body pillow that seemed to have an anime girl printed onto the surface.
"F*ck! Ryota we have guest!" Jonathan shouted out while facepalming.
"We do?" Ryota tilted his head and looked over at Shiro and Lisandra.
Seeing the masochist look towards them, Shiro immediately hid behind Lisandra since she really didn’t like dealing with masochists. She couldn’t kill them nor could she hit them. A natural counter to her.
"Ohhhh! That shy disposition, that mysterious mask, a slender body which is hidden by your outfit. Grade A waifu!" Ryota gave her a thumbs up and was about to go over to her when an ice wall was erected between them instantly.
As for Jasmine, she only pouted a little seeing Ryota change his focus so soon.
*Sigh...
’Why does this party work as well as it does.’ Jonathan sighed since Ryota was an M while Jasmine was a tsun/S. Feeling a headache coming along, he felt sorry for Shiro and Lisandra.
