The villainous magical girl's daily mission is to find fault.

Chapter 436 The Hyacinth's Great Adventure

This is the first time Hyacinth has ever heard of a fantasy-style dungeon adventure.

The surrounding environment was completely different from the mental world I had imagined before. The mountains and rivers were beautiful and the scenery was so realistic that it felt like I was really in a fantasy world.

Thinking of this, Hyacinth looked around at her companions, whose formal attire had been replaced with more otherworldly clothing:

She was wearing a sky-blue suit of armor, but it seemed to have been carefully designed, with ribbons adorning the gaps along the edges, retaining many girlish elements and designs.

Or perhaps it's because her formal attire is naturally a light armor style, so it doesn't look too unusual.

On the contrary, the situations of Iris and Araceae are more complicated:

Iris, who was originally wearing a pure white gown, had her gown replaced with a pure white draped robe. Underneath the robe was a fitted dress covered with various scrolls and books, making her look very well-behaved and cute.

Especially the pointed hat on her head, and the extended staff that reached her eyebrows in her hand...

"It seems my profession is [Mage]."

"Iris said thoughtfully."

"Then my profession must be a bard!"

Nightingale was overjoyed and showed the rather exquisite harp-like instrument in her hand to Hyacinth and the other girl. She was wearing a gorgeous light yellow short dress and looked like a fairy girl frolicking happily in the forest.

Tian Nanxing's attire surprised everyone:

The white background with black patterns remains unchanged, but the formal attire has been changed to a fitted style, with a half-shoulder cape draped over one shoulder and a hooded coat on the head and back.

"It's an assassin." "Oh, it's an assassin." "I see, it's an assassin."

"Why am I an assassin dog?!"

The dog barked in confusion, its tail wagging vigorously.

……

It must be said that Xin Yuehu has a very thorough understanding of everyone's situation.

Hyacinth is a sword and shield warrior, iris is a mage, nightingale is a bard who provides support, and arum is an assassin who fits her opportunistic fighting style.

As for that noisy little guy perched on top of the hyacinth...

"Why am I a priest! Why! What's so important about being a priest! Xin Yuehu is just lying to me!"

The white ferret, perched on the hyacinth's shoulder and wearing a priest's robe that fit her surprisingly well, said sullenly.

"The priest is important in the team too, Bai Ling, don't be discouraged." Iris smiled and comforted Bai Ling. The group looked around, not knowing what to do.

"But what should we do next? Xin Yuehu only told us to defeat her, the Demon Queen, but what should we do next...?"

"Miss Iris has very keenly sensed that something is amiss!"

A familiar voice suddenly came from not far away.

Everyone turned to look and met the gazes of several familiars floating in the air.

The familiars looked like chibi versions of Kokoro and her friends, and they were quite cute flying in the air, making Nightingale's eyes light up.

"Wow! Are these familiars? They're so cute!~"

"Yes, thank you for the compliment~ Since this is an adventure we're all on together, I'll be leading everyone through the fun until we actually face the boss~"

"We won't hold back then either," the hellcat-like familiar replied with a smile.

In short, with the introduction and guidance of Heart Moon Fox and the two Alices, everyone was able to understand the background story of this adventure in the world of mind images:

"In this world, there once came an evil lich king."

"This lich created a terrifying undead army, which attacked the peaceful inhabitants of the nearby kingdom, bringing devastating disaster to the people."

"But! A group of valiant adventurers slew this lich a thousand years ago, sealing its phylactery in the Underdark and ensuring peace for a millennium!"

"I see, it's a very interesting fantasy adventure story," Iris said thoughtfully.

"Yes, that's right~"

The fox girl said with a smile, her fox tail swaying back and forth.

"And today, a thousand years later, the kingdom's powerful mages and priests foresaw the loosening of the Lich King's seal, urgently requiring a team of warriors to eliminate the resurrected undead army and re-strengthen the seal."

"You are all playing the role of an adventurer party commissioned by the kingdom, and the story begins here—"

……

"As a fledgling adventurer party, you gathered in front of the recruitment board in a nearby village and decided to go to the nearest town's tavern to gather some information."

"A tavern, indeed, is a place where you can gather a lot of information," said the bard Nightingale, unable to resist strumming the strings of her lyre a few times.

Perhaps it was the world of her mind that endowed her with the musical instrument abilities corresponding to the files; a few casually strummed notes formed a melodious tune.

The group entered the tavern and found an empty table to sit down.

"This really is a fantasy-themed tavern, how interesting." The mage Iris looked around at the lively scene with great interest.

Although they knew in their hearts that these were NPCs played by familiars, the way they were chatting with each other made it hard to believe that they were just familiars.

"First, we need to gather intelligence about this area. Perhaps we can sift through the messy information to find out about the undead legion."

"That's right. But everyone must remember that this is a role-playing game, so you must act according to the role you are playing~" the fox girl explained as always.

"For example... once we enter the tavern, what should we do to avoid being looked at suspiciously by those around us?"

"Of course, I'll order a drink! What would you all like to drink? I'll order!"

Instead of rum and spirits on the menu, fruit juice was used. The adventurers gathered around the table and chatted about their information with the familiars who were playing the role of drinkers at the next table.

As they chatted, the assassin Tian Nanxing, who had been flipping through the character files in his hand, suddenly said:

"Speaking of which, everyone's been so busy ordering drinks, did anyone bring any money with them?"

"..."

Suddenly everyone fell silent, and each of them took out their money pouches. The four of them and the mink had managed to scrape together a total of five coins.

"It's only five yuan in total."

"Five cups of wine... that would cost at least 10 coins."

"If you buy on credit, you'll end up in jail, and the adventure will be over from the start."

"—No problem! I have a way, woof!"

The assassin, Tian Nanxing, suddenly had a brilliant idea. He shook his dog tail violently and spoke to the crowd.

"I just checked my skill bar, and my [Steal] and [Skillful Hands] skill levels are very high!"

As an assassin, having these two skills is quite normal. No one objected.

"I see. So Miss Tiannanxing can use this method to alleviate the temporary economic crisis," the fox girl said with a smile.

"It's okay, it's just a game after all. It's understandable that some people might go too far occasionally."

"But please don't imitate this behavior after you leave the world of mental images~ I'll be angry!"

After making a rational declaration, everyone watched as Tian Nanxing walked to the edge of the bar and set her sights on a familiar customer who was engrossed in drinking.

Time seemed to stand still in the world at that moment, and the fox girl said with a smile:

"Next are the core rules of this adventure—"

"Roll the dice!"
