Your POV

Y/n: hey, Luna?

Luna: yes? What can I do for you?

Y/n: can you te-

Cleo: we need a quest

Luna: oh I see, please go to the quest board and take a quest

Cleo: thank you Luna

Y/n: thanks

Mark: many thanks

Yuriko: thank you...

We all go to the said quest boards to see what quest we should get to earn us some Eris

Y/n: so which one should we take?

Cleo: let's take the oak druid kill quest! I'll cut it down to shreds easily

Yuriko: but we won't be able to help due to its immunity to magic and non-bladed physical attacks

Cleo: ugh fine let's choose another

Mark: how about this!

Mark shows us a rock guard kill quest

Cleo: my sword will shatter against that

Y/n: nope nope nope nope, hell no, I never wanna see rock monsters ever again!?

Cleo: hmmmmm

Y/n: w-what's with that look Cleo?

Cleo: oh nothing~

Cleo says with a cheeky grin

Y/n: o-ok?

Yuriko: I-I agree with them, a-and it looks really strong

Mark: ok then, next

Yuriko: oh h-how about this slime fetch quest

Y/n and Mark: NO!

Yuriko: o-ok then

Cleo: what the hell is wrong with you two, well anyways, it seems this giant toad kill quest is the only one we can do

Mark: well then let's go! If it's ok with you two?

Y/n: it's fine by me

Yuriko: a-agreed

Cleo: well then, let's go kill some toads!

We all go to the fields where the toads were but to our surprise, there's someone already there. A guy with a green tracksuit and a girl with blue hair and H2O hair tie.

Cleo: it seems someone also took the same quest

Y/n: yep

Suddenly we hear a guy shouting for dear life

Green suit: Save me, Aqua!

The guy with the green suit is currently being chased down by a giant toad while asking for help to the blue haired girl named aqua

Cleo: didn't think the toads were that big

Mark: same, I think my punches would just be absorbed by all those, uhhh meat? Muscle?

Green suit: Save me- Whoa!

"Aqua": Oh, man, this is hysterical! Kazuma, your face is red and you have tears in your eyes! You look super desperate!

Yuriko: hmmm

Y/n: hey Yuriko, you've been quiet since we arrived, is something up?

Yuriko: no i-it's just that, Giant Toads. These guys can't be dismissed as simple frogs. When mating season comes, they show up in settlements with lots of prey, and swallow the farmers' goats whole to build up strength in preparation to lay their eggs. In fact, farmers and children from the settlement tend to go missing during these frogs' mating season every year. By the way, their meat is somewhat tough, but it's so light and refreshing that it's a highly coveted ingredient.
