<Three days later>

"Hey, Kazuki, why'd you come to this town?"

"Hm?" I looked at Vel after his question had registered in my brain. "I don't really know. I just happened to pass by here, and I just kinda had to stay for a while."

I couldn't tell them that I was reincarnated from another world and just went to this place to get stronger in order to find someone, and probably protect this world from something I have yet to know. They wouldn't believe that, I'm sure of it.

"Ahh…that's understandable." Vel quieted down and continued to read through the book he was advised to read and understand.

We were in the guild, along with Tia, searching for important information about the dungeon's contents and monsters. It wasn't really what we wanted to do(well, except for me) since we planned on going back into the dungeon to go to floor 2 and find the boss room, the place where I fought that irregular boss. From what I've learned, the bosses and demon beasts in the dungeon reappear at very random intervals that they haven't found an explanation for.

The three of us were in the archive part of the guild near the grounds at the back and we were called here by an adviser chosen for us after we had been given our licences. An adviser is something like a guide, someone that would of course give you advice about either the dungeon or just the outside where demon beasts also appear. And our advisor…

"Hey, you three, are you done yet?" Chloe, our advisor, entered the room.

"I'm pretty much done."

"Nope." Vel and Tia simultaneously spoke.

Ah... they're blushing.

I smirked at the both of them, making sure that they are both saw. They felt more embarrassed than earlier. Teasing them was just so fun that I couldn't resist doing so. They probably already know that their feelings are mutual. I should probably set something up in the future.

I then turned to Chloe and asked. "Can I get another book to read? They might take a little while."

"Well, it's not like you're not permitted to use this place whenever you need to " She replied to me, giving me a shrug before walking up to Vel and Tia to talk about something probably related to the dungeon.

So, I walked around, looking for something something random to check out. And since I had nothing in mind, I went to look for some sort of record about important people. I just randomly thought about it and took the latest record I could find. It was a book of people who've been either recognized or those of the royal families. It contained the names of those known in the years of 4901 up to 4910, which was last year.

I took the book back at the table with Vel and Tia and read through it. I was pretty bored so I just read through the book from the back. I was slightly entertained and just continued reading the book like that. Though, the three around me looked at me with slightly judging eyes, I just shrugged.

There wasn't really much for me to say about it. It was just a record of people. So, just to pass some time with things that actually might help me in the future, I decided to read a book about spells.

It's contents weren't really that of the advanced types but only the basic magic spells since I basically only knew of those back in my world. They might have some different skills that I might be able to learn and cultivate myself

After the other two finished their assignment, we were finally able to go into the dungeon. While they were doing their work, I was able to learn a few skills. But I have yet to test them out and actually acquire the skill. I have the chance to do that in the dungeon.
