Monica, a level 20 warrior, has a 99% or higher chance of failing to change her class.
But she was lucky enough to succeed and became a mage; it seemed that heaven felt she was not destined to die.
Then, Monica met Lulu, who helped her buy the house in Red Peach City.
"Smash my bedroom...and divide up the team's assets?"
"Isn't anyone grieving over the captain's disappearance?"
Linda was stunned.
No matter what I say, I will lead them to the higher levels of the World Tree.
He could understand why the four-star characters she kicked out of the team resented him.
But why are all the key players who stayed behind ungrateful?
“Yes, there is.” Monica thought for a moment, then held up a snow-white index finger and said, “Sister Tina took all the cucumbers from the captain’s room and cried very loudly last night.”
Cucumber? The cucumber that's on the blue 'robust vegetable cabinet' that you can only look at but not touch?
What does Tina need those things for?
Before Linda appeared a nun with pink hair and a sickly smile, a five-star SSR 'Hell's Judgment' Tina, a melee mage. The character's third act event was "[Wish is to turn the captain into a beautiful specimen]".
"Besides Tina, is there no one else who is saddened by the captain's disappearance?"
Linda felt a chill run down her spine.
His intuition told him that he had to conceal his identity as the former captain of the original adventure team.
In the game, Tina can only threaten players through the screen, but in reality, Linda would probably be drained dry and end up hanging on the wall of Tina's bedroom!
"Maybe so, but Monica doesn't know."
Monica puffed out her proud chest, punched her little fist, and jiggled it like jelly: "Monica has been waiting for the captain to come back!"
"Monica is such a wonderful child." Linda sighed and patted Monica's head. Five-star cards are all ungrateful wretches; to clear the World Tree Secret Realm, you still have to rely on loyal four-star characters.
The girl squinted her eyes like a cat, a look of pure enjoyment on her face.
Linda thought to herself that even a four-star Monica wasn't that bad. Now that she had switched to a mage and become a back-row class, the side effects of her passive skill, [Glass Cannon], had been minimized.
Staying with him, this hero who restores health, will protect Monica from being pounced on by the ugly monsters.
...
Half an hour later, the two, having finished packing their belongings, walked out of the house.
Monica put on the bright yellow short skirt that Linda had asked Kaphni to buy, her long legs wrapped in white stockings, and her feet in round-toed leather shoes. She was no longer a poor girl with no clothes to wear.
But the moment she stepped outside, Monica still nervously put on her cardboard box and carried a bundle that was as big as a dung beetle compared to a dung ball.
The wrapping cloth has an extremely old-fashioned, colorful pattern, and is generally only used by older adventurers.
“These ordinary patterns won’t attract attention!” Monica explained to Linda’s puzzled question while carrying a huge bundle.
"No... what I meant was, isn't it actually more noticeable this way?"
Linda said awkwardly.
Looking down the road, all the pedestrians were staring at Monica, who was wearing a cardboard box on her head, white stockings, and carrying a large, old-fashioned bundle.
It's like a southern adventurer awkwardly entering a northern public bathhouse. If you openly go without underwear, no one will look at you, even if it's a small size that's embarrassing. But if you wear underwear to cover up, no matter how big it is, it will attract everyone's attention.
Monica's current approach falls into the latter category.
The cardboard headgear alone was eye-catching enough, and the old-fashioned bundle, which resembled a large water vat, made her look like a beautiful dung beetle pushing a dung ball.
Everyone on the street stopped and stared at her in astonishment!
"Captain, Monica is so scared." Monica, like a timid mouse, hid behind Linda, her little hands trembling slightly as she gripped the hem of his clothes.
For someone who has been a recluse in their house for three years, stepping out of the front door and into the sunlight is undoubtedly a very courageous thing to do.
"Let's take the cardboard box down. Monica is so pretty, everyone will be happy to see her," Linda advised.
But Monica shook her little head vigorously, her big eyes behind the holes in the cardboard box revealing a determined look, and she stubbornly said, "Without the cardboard box, Monica can't survive!"
It seems there's still a long way to go before I overcome social anxiety.
Linda sighed deeply.
I glanced at Monica's huge bundle and wondered where this little girl got so much luggage.
Inside were mostly figurines of magical puppets, various comic books, and storybooks; they must have been quite heavy.
He offered to help Monica, but she solemnly refused – “I can’t trouble you, Captain. Monica would never cause you any trouble!”
Was it because he locked her in the warehouse and didn't visit her? Linda sensed that Monica seemed uneasy, afraid that he would abandon her again.
This time, I will take both Monica and Lulu to the top of the World Tree to see the breathtaking scenery.
Linda thought to herself.
The three of them came to the main road and stopped a horse-drawn carriage.
Linda planned to take Monica to complete the joining procedures first, just in case this big loli changed her mind halfway and didn't want to be an adventurer anymore, which would be troublesome.
First, get her into the team and sign a 100-year contract...
Let's set the penalty for breach of contract at one million gold coins, so that Monica won't back down.
It's not that Linda is heartless; in Monica's personal storyline, there was a time when she was afraid of adventure and dared not enter the secret realm.
In the fairly spacious carriage, the back seats were covered with cool bamboo cushions. Monica huddled in the far left corner, her little hands gripping Linda's clothes tightly, determined not to let the stranger, Kaphni, sit next to her.
Kaphni glanced at Monica out of the corner of her eye and asked, "Has the child washed...?"
Linda immediately understood. Not long ago, Monica heard the whipping and was so frightened that she wet herself, but as far as Linda knew, she seemed to have just wiped herself with a piece of paper. Monica's water bill hadn't been paid for two months.
Despite Monica's extremely slovenly lifestyle, Linda noticed that the girl's exposed arms and legs were quite clean.
"Captain, Monica, it's not dirty."
A faint voice came from the cardboard box, then suddenly the hem of her clothes was lifted, revealing a flat, smooth stomach without any excess fat. Monica said somewhat shyly:
"Captain, may I examine Monica?"
A question mark appeared above Linda's head.
Could it be that three years of seclusion have made Monica stupid, leaving her completely unprepared for the 'old magician'?
Even so, Linda's eyes involuntarily moved upwards. On Monica's stomach was a cute, round belly button. Beyond her lower abdomen, and further upwards, she could only see a slight bulge.
