Capítulo 75: Sneaky Handjob

"Why did we even bother with the bundle, right? We could've just said we're adventurers with the magic ability to store objects in another dimension. No need to convince these NPCs that we're just like them."

Not a word came from his friends, and Llyod noticed the distance his own girlfriend had placed between them.

He wasn't oblivious to the tension, understanding exactly why Alice was keeping her distance.

"Look, I'm sorry for what I said to you yesterday. I was... an asshole. That's true. I get that now. I shouldn't have undermined you like that. And it's true—if it wasn't for you guys, I would've died back there. So... uh... can you forgive this fool?"

Lloyd stared down at his feet, too nervous to meet his friends' eyes.

They'd been by his side long before the game even started, like old trees standing firm against the wind for a decade.

And what had he done?

He'd tossed them aside like wilted flowers.
