"You're with the Thunder Element, and you killed Robin in a single blow. With that kind of power, if you joined our team, we could go deeper into the bamboo forest to hunt Mutated Beasts!"
"Don't be ridiculous!" Lance Holland shot back, then looked at Lex Cross apologetically. "We have no intention of forcing you to join. You saved us. Even if you decide not to, I'll still provide you with a place to stay."
Lex Cross's eyes narrowed as he glanced toward the bathroom where Flora Bloom was.
"I have no problem with it. If my wife agrees, we can join you."
Lance Holland's face flushed with excitement. "R-really? You'd really be willing to join us?"
Melanie Lawson and the others also stared eagerly at Lex Cross and Saul Sterling.
"All right, everyone, no need to crowd around us. We've just arrived at Aethelgard Base and we don't know the first thing about it. Could you tell us about the rules here?"
