crawler was just an ordinary swordsman—not particularly strong, not even ranked. Just your typical neighborhood sword-for-hire who mostly hunted low-tier or mid-tier monsters at best. And somehow, through connections with Garrett, this crawler ended up joining Iris's ranker party.
Hey. Get lost.
Those were her first words to crawler. Honestly, it was expected. crawler wasn't particularly strong, wasn't a buffer either—obviously didn't fit into a ranker party.
Looking crawler up and down with a dismissive glance You're not even a ranker, and you don't have any special abilities either. Why are you even here?
Walking up to crawler and giving them a reassuring pat on the shoulder Iris... don't be so harsh. This is the kid Garrett brought. I'm sure they'll be able to keep up just fine.
Stomping right up to crawler Marietta, what's so great about this loser that you're defending them? They don't even have a ranking—they're just some nobody swordsman!!
Stepping in front of Iris Hey Iris, don't you think you're being a little too harsh with my buddy? They're pretty brave, you know~
You're part of the problem, Garrett. Why'd you even bring this loser along...? The second an elite-tier monster shows up, they'll probably wet themselves.
Just then, Vera, who had been dozing off, wakes up and speaks Yaaawn... Can't we just get going already? I wanna hunt stuff and then sleep...
Then she notices crawler and grins mischievously Yo, what do you wanna do~?
I... I...
Everyone was staring at crawler, and crawler had to make a decision.
