Chapter 2171: A Nostalgic MMO ⑤
When players get married, they receive a wedding ring accessory. However, it has no special effects, it\'s more of a commemorative item, with the names of both characters inscribed in the item description.
[Come to think of it, this is the first time I\'ve actually seen this wedding ring item.]
[Ah, Kaito-san, you usually play solo, right? Have you ever joined a guild?]
[I was in one for a while and even participated in siege battles, but PVP content is just too exhausting. In the end, I settled on playing solo.]
[Ah, yeah~~ siege battle guilds tend to be full of hardcore players.]
Guilds in this game aren\'t like adventurer guilds; they\'re more like player-made teams. I was once part of one as well.
However, the guild I was in was heavily involved in siege battles…… essentially guild-versus-guild warfare. These battles took place once a week, but they lasted a long time, and the preparation was tough. It was incredibly draining.
Of course, the rewards were significant. Some items could only be obtained through siege battles, and the top-tier players were heavily invested in PVP combat.[Anyway, now that the marriage is done, are we heading straight to the limited-time dungeon?]
[……Before that, how about we get Kaito-san’s character to Tier-3 Class first?]
[Ahh, right…… Thanks to selling the item Aoi-chan told me about, I got a decent amount of money. Even if we go dungeon crawling, it might be best to handle the Class Change first…… By the way, what’s the Tier-3 version for my Class?]
Just as Aoi-chan had mentioned, there were buy requests in chat for the rare items I had stored in my warehouse. After selling them, I earned a significant amount of in-game currency.
With this, I could upgrade my equipment, but before that, I needed to decide on my build. My character\'s Class was Knight, a frontline class with high durability and decent attack power.
Since I mostly played solo, I hadn\'t built my stats or skills for tanking, but in party play, tanks were in high demand. In that sense, I was practically a tank.
[Kaito-san is a Knight, right? There are three Tier-3 Class options. There\'s the Royal Knight, which is a reasonable upgrade with enhanced durability; the Dragon Knight, which has a more aggressive skill set; and the Magic Swordsman, which shifts your character towards a mid-range playstyle and gains access to magic.]
[That’s quite the variety. Hmmm, since Aoi-chan is a mage class, if we\'re playing together, it’s better if I stay as a frontline fighter…… In that case, Royal Knight sounds like the best choice.]
[Yeah. The Royal Knight is basically a straight-up upgrade from Knight, so it should be easy for you to adjust, Kaito-san. If you advance to Tier-4, you can become a Royal Guard, which specializes in tanking, or a Holy Knight, which can use Healing Magic. It’s a very stable Class.]
[Alright, then I\'ll go with Royal Knight…… Does the Tier-3 Class Change take a long time?]
Since Class Changes in this game required completing quests, I was a little concerned that it might take too long and make Aoi-chan wait. When I asked, she responded with a gentle smile.
[No, all Tier-3 Class Change quests are simple, you just need to go through some dialogue. Tier-4, on the other hand, can take quite some time and may require specific items.]
[In that case, it sounds good since I won’t have to keep you waiting too long, Aoi-chan.]
[Fufu, well, even if I do have to wait, we can talk like this, so I doubt I\'ll get bored. Playing side by side like this is easier than I expected.]
[Yeah, communication is smoother, and it\'s definitely easier to play together this way.]
Obviously, talking face-to-face like this makes communication much smoother than typing in chat. It also makes it easier to understand each other’s in-game situation.
It must also be more convenient for Aoi-chan when explaining things to me. Well, if I had to point out a downside, it\'s that Aoi-chan is in an unusually high-spirited mood today and staying very close. Sometimes, I suddenly find her face right near mine, catching me off guard.@@novelbin@@
……Well, I guess I\'ll cope with that by just focusing on the game.

Serious-senpai : [By the way, here\'s a little trivia———– the MMO that Kaito and Hina are playing is modeled after Ragnarok Online. Of course, it\'s only used as a reference, so there are plenty of differences, but apparently, that\'s what the author had in mind while writing.] ṙÀ₦ΟᛒÊS̩
