I like them big, do you? Chapter 61: Either three of you or no one

Reylin saw his party on the horizon.

Reylin could only ask Lioness and Steel Melody for some gaming time out of all the connections he made.

The former was obliged to come through the contract she had signed.

Steel Melody knew that Reylin and Lioness would draw many opponents with their natural presence. The Hero was also the same when drawing opponents, but Maya seemed rather like a normal player!

Regardless of their presence, all three had so much strength that no one would be satisfied with opponents on their level.

Thus, Steel Melody couldn’t contain her excitement as she trembled with starry eyes.

Even Reylin saw her expectations from afar, and he chuckled.

Steel Melody was the simplest woman out of the party, and Reylin probably would stick closer to her than anyone.

Lioness was Lioness, and Maya had her current problems.

Knowing the hero’s plight, Reylin would be very careful with his words.

For now, just as he had said to his male friends, Reylin took out Layla’s notes, and he read them while fanning his face with warm air, “Hello there.”

Reylin also wore his flame robes, so many players and monsters would think twice before making any move on him.

Steel Melody didn’t belong to that category, “Hi! You are quite late!” She slapped her steel glove on Reylin’s back.

He gave her a side-glance, “I was so stressed coming here. It feels like a challenge dealing with all three of you at once.”

“Huh? Why?” Steel Melody asked.

At that time, Lioness sneered, “He’s a sole male member of our party. And we all three are pretty different, I would say. You’ve got a difficult choice to pursue, Reylin.”

“It’s either all of you or no one,” Reylin retorted with wise words as Lioness scoffed.

Steel Melody gave him a weird side-glance, “You are too deep into a role-play! We, players, follow our tradition!”

At last, Ferocious Bear waved her hands, her face beet red, “Let’s begin our adventure, okay?!”

For some reason, her heart sped up too fast, and her face became too hot to endure. Should Reylin throw some warm air her way, Ferocious Bear would fall onto her back!

Reylin chuckled, “Our objective is to go to The Hero’s new territory. Whose idea was to meet outside the city?”

Lioness flicked her fingers, “Mine. We will spend some time together, and I dare to say such a time is rarer than a full family Christmas.”

“I understand that you want to poach Steel Melody and make a good connection with the hero, but our contract has a limited span. I am fine with this adventure and party being a long one if you accept my condition.

After this adventure, you will share some knowledge with one of my people.”

“Hah. You won’t let me leverage you, even if I smile as sweetly as I can?” Lioness crossed her arms and made a dazzling smile.

Faced with Reylin’s poker face, Lioness gave up and raised her hands, “Yes, yes. I agree with this condition. Well then, girls. Let’s leave this boring guy behind and have some excellent talk!

He can only get hotter in a battle. How disappointing, right?”

“That’s not true…” Ferocious Bear tried to appease the mood, but Lioness wrapped her arm around her and pushed them forward.

Steel Melody was also pulled by Lioness, and three of them engaged in a conversation.

“Well, you all can treat me as a big sister,” Lioness took a great approach, “Or, one of you wants to be a big sister instead? In my high school’s trips, the big sister was decided by the chest size, you know?”

Steel Melody and Ferocious Bear looked below, their eyes squinting. Neither believed that they would be able to win in that area.

The tank said, “What about the age? I am twenty years old.”

“Oh, I am three years older than you,” Lioness chuckled.

With this, she became the big sister and naturally made these two call her as such. That affectionate nickname brought them three closer, and Lioness naturally led the conversation to learn more of the tank and the hero.

Following them, Reylin didn’t listen to them.

He sometimes heard one thing or two, but he mostly peeked at Ferocious Bear to see how she was doing.

For now, the hero seemed to be genuinely interested in Lioness.

That white-haired woman had left enough of an impression on Maya, and she wanted to become stronger through learning her character!

Reylin saw that, and he didn’t dare to butt in.

However, the pyromaniac’s plight happened roughly after an hour of walking.

His stamina fell short behind these three, “We have to rest.” He said, but his party members just turned around and looked at him weirdly.

Steel Melody bluntly asked, “Can’t you use your stamina items? We just walked for an hour, and we are in a low-level area!”

Reylin clicked his tongue, “I have been using those items without breaks. I must keep an eye on the purification; otherwise, they will all shatter without me knowing about it. If you don’t like it, then leave.”

“Hmpf! No need to be so harsh! I like this party!” Steel Melody pouted and turned her eyes away from Reylin.

He sighed, “Let me try something.”

His black staff came out of the inventory. Since Reylin was a great mage with excellent mana control, his staff naturally floated next to him. This time, however, Reylin made it float horizontally so that he could sit on it.

He felt like it would be uncomfortable, but he would keep up with his teammates.

Alas, when Reylin sat down on it, he dropped onto the ground!

“Hahaha!” Steel Melody burst into laughter.

Lioness and Maya were the same, but the hero covered her face and tried to be lower than the other two.

Both Lioness and Steel Melody laughed no end!

Reylin stood up, not paying attention to them, then patted his clothes, “I didn’t know that a tank could taunt with their mouth nowadays. Is that another upgrade to your weapon tree, Steel Melody?

It looks like Lioness also began treading on the tank path. Disappointed in your guild members?”

“How salty! Haha!” These two burst out laughing for the second time.

Knowing that nothing would work on them, Reylin fanned his face and feigned ignorance. He no longer tried his idea with the black staff and returned to his notes.

Steel Melody said, “Even if we don’t face any serious threats, this adventure should be fun! You rarely see this guy losing his composure! I think I know what you meant, big sister!”

“He’s still young. We will see more of his awkward moments,” Lioness replied with a broad smile, then she headed toward a tree.

With one slash, Lioness took out a few branches and gathered them in one spot.

“Light them up, Reylin.” She beckoned Reylin to come closer, but he sent a fireball first before coming.

That was yet another but small reaction due to his younger age.

Lioness smiled and squatted, “Sit close to the bonfire. In the meantime, we girls should try some hunting to hone up our teamwork.”

“Sure! I wonder if there’s a mini-boss somewhere around,” Steel Melody chirped to Lioness’ words that were like honey.

The hero also clenched her hands and said, “There’s a mini-boss around! I have it marked on my minimap!”

“Nice! Let’s deal with it!” Steel Melody also liked the hero’s words.

The three of them left Reylin alone.

[The Adventurer’s Bonfire.]

[+50% HP and MP regeneration.]

[Your stamina regenerates three times faster.]

[Eating by bonfire will satiate you more.]

[The hunger decreases slower after eating here.]

“She’s ready for long adventures… That also should help in wars, shouldn’t it?” Reylin read the system messages, then returned to his notes.

He estimated that it would take them a few days to go to the hero’s territory, so Reylin was ready to comprehend the notes and become closer to his flames.

In the meantime, he would deal with the ladies’ remarks.
