Chapter 11: Arc 1, - 11: Early Birds~
That night was the first night the other adventurers actually noticed them. They actively went out to search for a velatos despite being an under-levelled party and came back with its corpse.
The others didn't grovel at their feet or question them over the next couple of days, but at least they no longer stared at them with a lowered gaze.
With their new found mini-fortune, they decided not to tackle on a velatos till they were recovered from the last one.
Over the two days, Hotaru filed in her paperwork to resign from being a lawyer, becoming a full-time adventurer.
Jotou, with not much else to do other than contemplate reasons she's here, realized she should at least work on herself before continuing. Those squishy arms could barely beat a gust of wind.
She surveyed the equipment in the guild's training facilities filled with weights to lift, bows to fire and swords to swing. The smell of sweat burned the air.
Upon closer inspection, it was obvious that mostly, if not only, male members were in the area.
A quick look at the registered guild members would show that a lot of women used simple magics and were mages. There were many outliers, but they clearly weren't here... Wonder what the reason was...?
'I think the last time I went to the gym was to impress a girl who didn't even know I existed... Maybe I should've tried talking to her before buying that membership I never used.' She walked in.
Her eyes darted between all the heavy lifters and archers as she beelined to the dumbbells. She lifted one off the rack, showing how easily she could curl... the smallest one there.
'How long have I not worked out? Wait a minute, I'm in the body of a woman who was dead and kind of a noble.' Her thoughts contrasted her confident smile. Sweat already began to drip after six mere seconds.
