When we arrived, I noticed that Monica looked quite gloomy. Despite all the training, she seemed to be rather worried. I couldn't blame her; this was a rather harsh test for those that have not experienced too many challenges like me and my group. Even in the lowest difficult dungeon within the C Rank Range, it will be quite the trial to accomplish, even with all the training they have undergone.
But when she saw us arrive to meet her before going into the dungeon, she instantly changed her gloomy self and became much happier. I guess her party alone can't really cheer her up as much, which is quite pitiful to an extent…
"We've come to see you off." I said with a smile. "Are you ready?"
"I-I… well, we are ready, yeah." Monica nodded, still slightly nervously. "I have to grow stronger for my brother… And my father, so we can turn around what's happening in our territory."
"Well said." I nodded. "We'll be counting on you and getting this done. Here, a small souvenir."
