Scene 14

Welcome back! How'd it go?

You can consider that dungeon raided!

Really?!

We got everything we wanted - map info, items, enemy names - everything!

And here I was, just hoping you'd be able to rustle up some scraps of information...

Can't say I expected the three of you to actually clear the dungeon.

Cal here's the one who did most of the heavy lifting.

You wouldn't believe just how good this guy is with a sword, Argo.

He very casually made mince meat out of two huge bears back there.

Oh?... Can I ask you to tell us what you did to get this strong?

Yeah, of course. I've always been obsesed with games, so I played them whenever I could.

Huh...!

I was so stupid. I thought I was strong... What a joke!

Cut it out, don't be like that! I did think you were a beginner at first... But you proved me wrong.

It's easy to let fear take over in this place. But no matter how real it feels, ignore the fear and enjoy the ride.

I've seen you in action, Iori...and you're every bit as strong as you look.

Nah, if I saw a monster in real life...I'd run screaming! Haha!

Hey, guys... If you don't mind...would all of you add me to your friends list?

Honestly... I hope this doesn't make me sound like a total weirdo... But you're really the first friends I've made in here.

And well...I'd really like it if we could play together again.

You know, I was about to say the same thing so count me in. I think we'd all be up for it.

Thanks a lot!

Call me whenever!

Announcement

The beta test has now ended. We would like to thank everyone involved for their participation. An announcement about the official launch will be made shortly.

Ah... Guess that's it...

For now. Launch day is just around the corner.

You're right! That's a good point!

Do you think they're going to make the game even harder?

There's sure to be a lot more players. That alone should make it better...!

Oh man! Just thinking about it gets me so stoked!

Yeah... It's bound to exceed expectations.

Ha! Seems like I'll need to gather lots of new information...

When the game officially launches...let's team up again, alright?

You bet I'm going to hold you to that offer!

I'll bring my brother with me, too.

Hell, yeah! The full release will be awesome!

You better believe we're coming back for you, Aincrad!
