On the day of the 10th floor exploration .
The six of us leave the Arriver’s house after we finish executing our equipment preparation . Right now we are heading to the dungeon which is located just outside the Purith town .
Perhaps, due to the changed attitude toward the dungeon exploration, the members’ facial expressions seem to look different than usual . The one with the most obvious expression is Erin who is walking behind the other 5 members . She is walking while hanging her head down and sweating all around her forehead . Her face is also extremely pale .
Since I am worried about her, I reduce my pace to walk by her side .
Note: “Are you okay, Erin?”
Erin: “I’m okay…Don’t worry…”
Her reply was awkward and her voice was listless . If you look at her, she does not look fine . Therefore, I become more worried .

Note: “Are you not feeling well? If you tell Jin-san and the others, then today’s exploration………”
Erin: “I’m not sick……Speaking of which, why do you seem to be calm, Note?”
Note: “Calm?”
Erin: “Why are you so compose when you are going to a scary place like the dungeon and getting closer to death?”
Aa, this is what she means . When she said it like that, I certainly agree with her means .
Even though I had been through the same predicament as her, our reactions are different towards the dungeon exploration, I completely do not feel daunted at all . If it’s a normal person, and he was tossed into a situation where he was constantly on the verge of death for 2 months, then he wouldn’t want to face the same situation for the second time .
However, such a thing does not appear on my mind .

I can understand Erin’ s sentiment of losing her nerves, and I can also sympathize with her . But whether I feel the same way, is another story .
Well, in my case, it’s not that because I really do not think that far or something like that . In fact, it simply does not come to my mind at all . And it’s not because I’m not being thoughtless neither . While I am analyzing my own mental state, the shaken red eyes are peeking at me .
Erin: “Rather than feeling compose, you are probably looking forward to diving into the dungeon, I suppose . ”
Note: “Is that so?”
I put my hand on my chest and seriously ponder about it . Erin’s argument does not seem to be wrong . I do feel excited about the dungeon exploration .
Note: “After all, this is the first time in a while that we are diving into the dungeon with all the members of the Arrivers . It’s natural to look forward to it, isn’t it . ”
Erin: “ Hahh…………You are really a dungeon fool . ”

Note: “It’s been a while that you speak harshly to me like that . ”
After the 20th Floor incident, Erin never speak harshly to me . It’s rare for her to give me a scathing remark . However, the girl in question becomes flustered at my words and shakes her hands .
Erin: “No, I don’t mean like that! It’s not an insult! I don’t have any evil intention neither! I’m honestly said what I really thought!”
A………She really thinks that I’m a dungeon fool………
She tried to patch up, but she failed . On the contrary, I’m hurt by her words . At the moment, she keeps trying to patch things up .
Erin: “Yeah! Actually, I was praising your mental strength! I’m just saying that even though you went through that incident previously; you are still looking forward to it! You are not perturbed by anything, and you have a ghost level mental state of mind . “
Up to the middle of the conversation I was starting to feel better, but then she followed up with the word ‘ghost level mental state of mind’ .
That was her honest feeling, right? I can feel it from the way she chose her words…………
It seems that Erin cannot control her mouth . She is the type that says anything that comes into her mind . Although she does not have any evil intentions, a pure heart can hurt people too . For the time being, I have to resolve her misunderstanding .
Note: “It’s not like I’m not being perturbed by anything . Instead, I’m actually a weak mental person, am I not? I’m easy to get depressed………Personally, I think that I have a heart that made out of glass…………”
Half a year ago, I lived a debauchery life style after being abandoned by my childhood friend . I was also quite depressed when Erin scolded me in the past . Moreover, when I feel that I have no progress at all, I start to get impatient . I absolutely do not have a ghost level mental strength .
Note: “I’m not joking…………”
However, Erin casts a distrustful gaze at me .
