“System prompt: Countdown for accessing the instance dungeon has ended. Merging in progress. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6…”
The instant the countdown ended, Roddy found this prompt in his personal system. When he saw it, he had a strangest hunch.
Nagase Komi who was standing not too far away from him turned to look at him. The bald girl had a complicated expression on her face and she said in a hushed tone, “Did you receive it as well?”
Roddy nodded with a serious expression.
A new prompt instantly appeared in the system!
“System prompt: Accessing Player mode. Players will be entering the instance dungeon area!”
“System prompt: Issuing new quest… calibration in progress…”
To Roddy and the bald girl’s surprise, the ‘calibration in progress’ prompt remained there for quite some time. Even after a full five minutes, the new quest had yet to be issued forward.
The two of them exchanged glances as they became faintly aware that something unusual was happening.
Finally!
