Chapter 52: Creating a Map
Elmo got up from where he was sitting. With having taken care of checking his system, he was ready to head out and see what they might learn. After all, they certainly weren't going to be any closer to getting out of this dungeon just by sitting there and talking.
However, he also didn't want to head out if no on e else has looked at their status. After all, allocating their attribute points would help them with any situations like the goblins before. Plus, it was clear that the others on his team had to have gained levels themselves, although, he couldn't help but wonder if they should let the other teams know about that. Especially since he didn't know if they wouldn't try to turn on them later on.
He walked over to Jonas, first, since he seemed to be merely watching everyone else doing their own thing. As he approached Jonas, Jonas smiled at him, which somehow almost made Elmo to trip and fall over nothing.
As he caught himself and made sure he was steady on his feet, he chuckled at it and as he continued walking the rest of the distance to Jonas, "The floor sure can be slippery sometimes."
Jonas chuckled. "I'm sure," he said as Elmo sat next to him.
"What're you up to?" Elmo asked.
"Just watching the others get ready for the day. It's not like we have anything else to do at the moment. Owen told me that we were going to compare notes on where everyone has explored when we're all ready to go," Jonas told Elmo.
"Uh, have you checked your stats recently?" Elmo asked, suddenly unsure if he should be asking this. After all, Jonas was older than him and probably thought of that already.
"Not really," Jonas replied, offhandedly. "Not much has changed, I'm sure."
"Uh, I checked mine and I got a few levels," Elmo whispered, not caring to get more specific in the even someone else could overhear him.
Jonas nodded. "Okay, so what?" Jonas asked. "So you gained a few levels. Why should that make me check my own status?"
