"Oh, I just wanted to leave the blockade without getting stopped." Josh shrugged.
"You chose to do it in such a flashy way?!"
"Pretty effective, don't you think?" Josh smiled.
"This is so goddamn crazy! Then, you didn't lose any party members in the Tower?"
"Nope, I was soloing. It's easier like that. Plus, it gives better rewards."
"It does?! It's the first time I hear that!" He seemed mind-blown.
"Eh, you gotta be the first one to clear it solo, for that. But since no one really bothers trying…."
"Holy shit, that's insane! Wait, why would you think you'd be stopped in the first place? The people out there are looking for Climbers clearing Hellish difficulty. No way that's Soloable!"
"About that…."
"No…..No!" He slowly realized what Josh implied.
Josh simply shrugged as the man glared at the mass of zombie skin in the corner. Was he trying to develop an X-ray vision from his sheer will?
