Chapter 795 The Strange Solution
Chapter 795 The Strange Solution
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
"Have you figured it out?"
Emilia grinned. 'Mhmm! I did!'
Since the dungeon boss was making trouble for them because he thought they were 'good toys', there was actually a very simple way for them to stop him from 'delaying' them, and even actively work to 'help' them reach the boss room faster.
The trick was to make him long for the 'toys' enough to no longer have any patience to wait, and Emilia knew just the way to do it.
'The thing that attracts him the most is probably our beauty.' Emilia analyzed carefully. 'After all, the amount of gold we have might not be much in the end game, but it's definitely a lot more than any other player… right?'
Cynthia hummed. "It's very likely. Even if some of the 'big players' have started buying out coins from others, the speed at which they can amass funds at this stage of the game can't be that high."
It wasn't that people weren't willing to sell what they had, and the raven-haired girl would never underestimate the greed of mortals, either. The reason she was so certain, however, was simple.
Only a few teams were able to deal with 'high' level monsters like the [Minor Tentacle Plant Demon] and the [Ravenous Rabbit], and most of them wouldn't be shortsighted enough to leave the chance to conquer the dungeon first.
Of course, unless there was some drastic change from the previous timeline, the number of goblins they must have faced at this point couldn't even be close to what Emilia and her team went through, thanks to the 'special care' from the boss.
"It's possible that it might work."

With Cynthia's 'confirmation', Emilia's smile got even brighter.
Now all she had to do was doll herself and her team up so that the dungeon boss couldn't resist his greed.
Although her team couldn't figure out which one of their 'tricks' had worked, they were more than happy to see their precious 'vanguard' finally cheering up.
"That 'Princess Knight' thing really does suit her." Danielle whispered in exasperation. "Sometimes, she's so valiant like a knight, and then she goes acting like a spoiled little princess… so hard to please!"
Of course, she didn't dare say it loud enough for Emilia to hear.
Luckily for her, the crimson-haired girl's hearing ability within the game was the same as everyone else. Otherwise, Danielle would have quickly come to realize that Emilia had never really thrown a 'temper tantrum' at them before, and was at most just being a little more willful than her usual self.
Regardless of the drill-haired girl's 'dissatisfied' words, however, Crystal could tell that the team as a whole was happy to see Emilia in a good mood again.
Maybe they also realized that despite her usually 'carefree' attitude, perhaps Emilia was the one who cared for the 'progress' of their team the most. This included even Danielle, who was the 'owner' of the team, and the one who stood to gain the most if it could 'solidify' its spot as a real top squad in the world of Arcadia.
"Didn't you want to take me shopping? Well, let's go!"
Danielle wanted to scold and correct her words, but after Robin and Nico not-so-subtly signaled her to be more tactful with their unexpectedly painful elbow nudges, she could only give in.
"Fine, fine, let's go… shopping."
In fact, despite her words, none of them thought Emilia would take much interest in looking around for good 'gear'. After all, the last time they'd been in the commercial district for that purpose, the little beauty appeared to have been quite bored.
Even if she was in an unexpectedly good mood and hyping herself up for it, Emilia would probably lose interest in it sooner or later. Or so they thought.
"Does this look good on me?"
"Does this?"
"How about this one?"
Usually, a beauty like Emilia modeling around for them would be a happy event. But when the items she was spending so much money on didn't even come with their own special effects, her poor teammates could only feel their hearts and wallets bleeding without daring to make a sound.
Obviously, she was just picking whatever made her look good. But since the effects were so stunning, none of them could find the will to stop Emilia.
As someone who could make even the boyish Maeve look like a delicate princess, Emilia's ability to 'beautify' herself could only be considered terrifying, and even the 'non-players' seemed to have been affected.
But since they looked so good on her, even Danielle couldn't bring herself to say 'no' when the crimson-haired elf bought them.
The drill-haired girl couldn't help but sigh. "You know, Emilia… that top you purchased to replace your breastplate… it doesn't have any stats or defense abilities, right?"
In fact, the default breastplate wasn't so bad, and most players usually couldn't find a decent replacement for it until they'd hit level thirty or so.
This was because of the fact that random item boxes were only rarely given as quest rewards, and progressing in the main quest also wasn't so easy.
"Yep, I know. But doesn't it make me look good?"
The crimson dress she'd picked wasn't glittering, but Emilia's smile definitely made it look like it was. It didn't seem to expose any of her 'important' parts, and yet, it barely seemed to cover enough.
Going down from the little beauty's neck to the middle of her thighs, whether it was the alluring valley up top or the tantalizing flat belly below, far too much was left for others to feast their eyes on.
Knowing her own advantages the best, Emilia twirled on the spot with a smile, and Danielle only realized she'd nodded in agreement when it was too late.
"I knew you'd agree." The elf girl grinned.
While Danielle was stunned, the rest of the team couldn't help but snicker.
Well, except for Sylvia, that is. She was too busy trying to swallow her own saliva to care. 'That thing… it really looks like she's not wearing anything down below?!'
