"Asuna?" Silica said after looking at the list of members in Zen's group.
"Ah... As you heard from the group we defeated earlier Silica, my group only has two sides. And Asuna is one of the members along with me, as well as my girlfriend" said Zen. Actually Scilica couldn't hear them because they were too far from her.
But hearing this, Silica was a little jealous of what Zen said, but Silica threw that thought away, because she was already happy to be invited on an adventure with Zen.
"I-I see.. So what's the name of your group Zen-san?" asked Silica.
"You can see it in Silica's group menu, our group name is next to the group emblem" said Zen. However, because Scilica thought too much about what Zen said earlier she was nervous and forgot to check their group name.
"S-I'm sorry Zen-san, I was too excited to enter your group" said Silica while hiding her embarrassment and started to check the name of the group.
"Actually we didn't want to form a group, but because many people gave us strange nicknames, we finally decided to un-" Zen's words were cut off after hearing the screams.
"E-E-ELITE?!" Silica shouted, because she knew the name of the Zen group.
"W-Why Silica, don't you like the name of my group?" asked Zen after seeing Silica's reaction.
"Of course not Zen-san. I was very surprised to know the name of your group." Silica said.
"Is that true?" asked Zen to confirm.
"You know Zen-san, the name of your group is very famous, because right now who doesn't know the group called Elite. The group that contains two players and entered the takeover group with the strength of the two members on par with the big groups." explained Silica who was still feeling stunned.
"Really?.. I just found out the name of my group is very famous" said Zen who was also surprised.
"Yes Zen-san, even you two have a nickname, namely Beast for you and Flash Queen for your partner" said Silica.
"Serious?" Zen said because it was the first time he'd heard his nickname.
Several players had given Zen and Asuna nicknames because of their achievements. Asuna is called the Flash Queen due to her fast movement and she is well known for her beauty.
Whereas Zen earned the nickname Beast because, several players on the front line saw him slaughtering all the monsters like a beast slaughtering its prey.
But what Zen doesn't know. most players think that Zen is very strong and looks ugly so his nickname is Beast, because Zen is very rarely seen in public.
On the other hand, Silica who knew the facts about Zen's group again felt unworthy, as it would be very weak compared to the two of them.
"What's the matter with you Silica?" said Zen who saw the change in Silica's expression.
"I-I'm fine Zen-san, I just don't feel like it's appropriate to follow your group" said Silica while lowering her head.
"Really? Then who deserves Silica?" asked Zen.
"What do you mean Zen-san?" said Silica who was confused by Zen's question.
"I asked Silica, who do you think is worthy if you feel unworthy of entering my group?" Zen asked again.
"M-Perhaps some of the players on the front lines are your equal?" Silica said.
"Then why do you think I chose you who you think are unworthy over those you think are worthy Silica?" asked Zen.
"I-I..." said Silica who didn't know what to say.
"I don't choose people because they deserve it or not Scilica, I choose you because I want to go on an adventure with you. Even Asuna was very happy when I told you that you would be joining our group." Zen said while rubbing Silica's head.
"R-Really?" ask Silica
"You can ask him. Instead of us being a group, you can directly message him" Zen replied.
Hearing Zen's words, Silica started to raise her self-confidence. Silica now promised to become strong enough to be worthy to fight alongside them.
"Alright, let's rest and start our adventure tomorrow" said Zen who started to stand up.
"Alright Zen-san, but where are you going to stay?" Silica asked knowing that Zen was no longer staying at this place.
"You don't need to worry Silica. How about this, tomorrow I will be waiting for you where we parted earlier and we will start our adventure from there" said Zen
"Okay," said Silica with a smile on her face.
"Alright, see you tomorrow Silica, Pina" Zen said then started to leave the two of them.
"See you tomorrow Zen-san" said Silica and a tweet from her best friend replied.
.
.
"Switch Silica" said Zen.
"Hyaaaa" Silica shouted while activating her sword skill and slashing a scorpion-shaped monster in front of her, until the sound of sharding came from the monster.The r signifies that he succeeded in defeating him.
Silica had been feeling very excited since morning because she couldn't wait to go on an adventure with Zen. Even at night Silica couldn't sleep because she kept imagining it.
After Zen left her room, Silica didn't sleep well and she started to tell all the experiences she had with Zen before to her best friend Pina. Unable to sleep, Silica continued to chat with Pina until late and caused her to only sleep two hours.
"Again! Switch" said Zen who had confirmed that the monster in front of him had been switched.
And Silica again defeated the monster after hearing Zen's signal.
"Do you want to continue or rest" said Zen after seeing Silica defeat the monster.
"I can still continue Zen-san" said Scilica. Even though he only slept for two hours, he still felt energized and focused himself on being strong.
"Okay," said Zen.
Then the two of them started to continue to carry out massacres around the place.
.
.
A few days later.
Zen currently with Silica managed to slaughter a monster in the form of a dinosaur which is the boss of this dungeon. After confirming clearing the dungeon, the two of them started to leave the place.
After they managed to get out and slay a few monsters around the area, Zen then received a message from Asuna informing him of the results of his meeting with the members of another takeover group.
"Alright Silica, let's rest for a while" said Zen who wanted to read the message from Asuna.
"You can rest first Zen-san, I will fight some more monsters" Silica replied.
"Alright, but be careful and fight the monsters around here, so I can keep an eye on you" Zen said and Silica nodded in return.
After Silica left, Zen started to open Asuna's messages and started replying to them.
Because Zen saw Silica was still fighting monsters. Then he started to open his skill menu while waiting for Silica.
However Zen was very surprised by what he saw. Zen saw a new skill that had just appeared in his skill list and then he muttered.
"Dual Weilding"
