Chapter 131 - Roles
After playing for a bit, Ellen then continued, "Anyway, I think that's Theo's plan. What do you think?"
Surprisingly, Sihan was the first to support Theo's decision. "I agree with the arrangement. In that one month off, we can use it to get more information from our influence or something. And if needed, we can change our skills to further enhance our overall performance. One month will be enough to master the D Rank Skill Radvils gave us too…"
Phyrill nodded in agreement, saying, "I will ask my Hilbert Family for the information, including the nest. Maybe we can set out an expedition to hunt Hero Rank monsters while destroying a few nests to increase our levels. We will also need to rank up once in the wild anyway, so I don't see any problem with this plan."
Alea looked at Laust and Ellen, who seemed to have no problem with this arrangement, so she said, "Then, we need to prepare everything today. Let's assign everyone's job, shall we?"
Since the topic had changed, Theo began to explain their role. "For now, Sihan will be getting our tents. Ellen will accompany you since you will also ask for permission to leave the school. Phyrill and Laust will get more information about the map, terrain, and other information. Alea and I will be in charge of the supply."
Ellen agreed. "Alright. Leave it to us. We will probably have three tents and pair each other. I will be with Alea. Theo will sleep together with Phyrill. Sihan doesn't mind sharing a tent with Laust, right?"
Sihan and Laust exchanged looks. Seeing there was no complaint, both nodded to Ellen.
"And a pair should be watching outside during the night. We need to split it into three as well and I don't think we should have the same pair as the tents. The reason is if there are two people in the tent and wake up together, they will clash when there is an emergency, rushing to the outside. That's why I will be changing the pair. At least two tents or two people can come out immediately.
"How about this? Alea and Theo have been working together, so you two can pair up. Sihan will be with me while Phyrill will take care of Laust."
Alea and Theo obviously didn't have any problem since they had been doing it for so long. Sihan and Ellen were also a pair previously, leaving only Phyrill and Laust together. However, the two seemed to have some sort of mysterious bond after knowing their role could easily be replaced.
Hearing no complaint, so Ellen nodded, ending the conversation. "Alright. That's all."
"Then, Laust and I will prepare for information, including the water supply like rivers, fountains, and any other water sources. We can handle the food without a problem anyway since we can find herbs and meats on the field. I will also provide nests, monsters, and other information to make our journey go as smoothly as possible."
"Thanks." Ellen gave a thumbs up before looking at Theo. "I think everything has been set. What do you think, Theo?"
"I am just wondering, does anyone have an allergy or something they can't eat? And can any of you cook?"
Their eyes intertwined before Ellen raised her hand. "I'm not that good, but if I bring a cooking glass which gives me the simulation on how to cook, I think it will be good. I have experience in cooking as well."
"Same." Sihan pointed his finger at Ellen.
"I can't cook." Phyrill raised his hand without hesitation. A smile was planted on his face as if he wasn't ashamed to admit it.
Laust contemplated for a moment before swallowing his pride instead of making everyone suffer from food poisoning. "I never cook."
"Then, it means only I, Theo, Ellen, and Sihan. Well, Theo and I have been preparing our food together, so I will cook together with him for lunch while Ellen and Sihan cook for dinner. Breakfast will be the leftover food from the previous night, okay?" Alea concluded their role.
"By the way, don't forget your night vision glasses," added Theo, remembering the first time he used them. These glasses would be extremely useful in the fight, especially during the night.
The group nodded without hesitation since glasses like these were not that expensive for them. Only Theo needed to think about it before spending so much money, especially since he needed to take care of the rent.
Seeing his expression, a small smile appeared on Alea's face. She knew his money problem and planned to do something about it. She raised another problem in the group expedition. "How about the kills and items?"
"I think we should allocate the EXP Points to Laust and Theo first. Well, it's not that much of a problem to be honest, since we can simply help if someone is too far behind from the progress. As for items… The one who kills it will get it.
"Only the special skills or items dropped from the Rare Hero Rank Monsters will be shared. We can sell them first and split the money or decide to give it to someone. This is our group, so it's easy to decide, especially since almost all of us come from a big family. Items of this rank are worth a lot but by no means that important to us." Phyrill shrugged after explaining the allocations.
"That's good enough." Alea nodded.
Since this was the first time he went out with six people, he turned to Ellen and asked, "Is this how usually a group decides things before an expedition?"
"Yes. The most influential person, the oldest, or their employers are usually the ones deciding things."
Theo felt it was troublesome and thought, 'I don't think I want to be in the group again. I will only stay with this group for the Grand Gaia. I think my clone will be enough to be my teammate since I can get everything while not having to worry about someone backstabbing me.'
Nevertheless, they had agreed to almost everything. And even if there were more, they could decide on the spot, so Alea decided to end the meeting.
"Then, let's meet again tomorrow… Where and when?" Alea furrowed her eyebrows and asked Theo.
"Tomorrow at 5 AM. The place will be in front of the Teleportation Circle."
"That's it." She pointed at Theo before waving her hand. "Alright. Let's end this meeting and do our things."
They nodded and left the room together.
