A God Killed Me By Accident, But I Reincarnated As The 4th Son Of The Marquis

Volume 13 Chapter 13: Preparation Part 2 

Once Keith finished cheering them on, he headed to the adventurers guild. He walked over to Madison, “Madison-what’s with the expression?” There was something wrong with her. He would ask her for something when he noticed her weird expression. 

It was full of bliss and happiness. But this was even more so compared to the other moments.

"Nothing!" Madison waved her hand. But that only made the man lean closer,

“...He let you touch the teddy bear, huh?” That look was quite familiar...the look of pure bliss. A joy of contentment and happiness from fluff. She was not the only one with this expression; the other receptionist was the same. They stared at the ceiling with a goofy grin; the adventurers were slightly freaked out. Madison sighed, “It’s so unfair. Vice Guildmaster let us touch it once and then took it away.”

"Indeed!” 

"How could something be so soft and plush?"

“We demand justice!” 

"The vice guildmaster is so mean!"  

The other receptionists wanted to cry. One more touch would be enough. 

"...” I think it's because of what's going on. Kaiser, the vice guildmaster, had won a giant teddy bear made from the wool of a sheep variant he had taken out. The wool from a variant was...sinful. The moment one touched it, you could never unfeel it again. It was so soft and comfy that it sent anyone to a dimension of fluffiness. As one of the people who felt it, he and the other people kept fainting and reviving as they made it. 

It was quite a hassle.

“So why did you come here today?” Madison coughed, calming herself. Keith grinned, “Oh. I want to go on another dungeon exploration again.”

“Really?”

“Mmhmm, are there any aquatic dungeons?” There was a need for fish, and it was difficult to find them since the city was nowhere near the sea.

“I see.” Madison nodded, “Then how about something like this? It has quite a lineup of aquatic monsters. I can assure you their meat is amazing.”

“I see.” Keith nodded as he stared at the information. After getting all of this, he returned home to see that Herrick was swinging his blade. But the moment he spotted him, he dashed over, “So Keith, are we going to the dungeon?” 

“Yes, we’re going to one.” Keith didn’t really need to go to the dungeon. But hearing how Herrick wanted to go, he decided to go with it just this once. Hearing this, the lion couldn’t help but grin, “Woohoo! We’re going to be going out again!”  It was time for them to head out again. 

“Yeah, I’m going to tell the others about this.” That was when they had the discussion. Ayaka and Long Lihua were on his island as well. 

“...What happened to you?” Long Lihua looked like she had gone through an explosion. She was not the only one; Carolyn and Scarlet were also covered in smoke. There was also some charred end on their hair. 

“Ugh-you got some embers on your hair, you two.”

“...” Alfia lightly snuffed the flames with her hands. 

“So guys, we’re going to be going to an aquatic dungeon. So get some things packed up and ready to go.” Keith grinned. But when he said that, 

“It’s been some time since we’ve gone out!”

“Yeah!”

“Keith, can we come too?” Long Lihua and Ayaka asked. Hearing how he was going to go out to a dungeon was intriguing.

Keith nodded, "Of course you can come as well." Having extra muscle was perfect. Then he thought, “Should I ask Lucy and Muriel to come too?” The more the merrier in this situation.

“Alright!” The others cheered when they heard this. It was time for them to go out and get some new things today. 

…

"You want us to join you on your dungeon exploration?" The two ladies blinked. Keith had asked them to go to the library. Keith explained, "Mmhmm. You don't have to worry about anything; they're all competent!"

The last time they entered the dungeon, Muriel got injured.  

"I'm not worried. But are you sure you want me to be there as well?" That was something the princess had doubts about. Muriel’s combat abilities were pretty low. Actually, she was probably on the bottom barrel of A-class. She got lucky and got bumped up to S-class.

“No, there’s no need to worry about it so much.” Keith shook his head, “I’m not choosing you guys because of your combat abilities. I’m asking you two because you guys are technical geniuses. That was the reason why Keith wanted to ask these two. Muriel was a good rear guard who could use water magic, while Lucy was also a powerful healer. With a team going like this, they would need a sturdy lineup boasting of healers and supporters. 

"Don't worry." Keith chuckled, "I'm not asking you two for your combat abilities. I'm asking you two because you're technical geniuses." Muriel was a good rear guard who could use water magic, while Lucy was also a powerful healer.

“We got too many fire-power people, and it’s going to get a little too spicy.” What this party lacked wasn't damage; it was utility. These two were perfect.

“Sure!” “I would love to do so!” 

“That’s great!” Keith laughed, but then he turned serious, “And we need to fix up the formation as well.” He sighed. 

“Eh?” 

“What do you mean, Keith?”  

"I'm going to alter the formations to fit everyone as much as possible." Plus size. Their party had an enormous number of people; formation was key to keeping everything organized.

“Thank goodness I had some experience with larger groups.” The memories of heading into the S-rank dungeon came to mind. It was a template for him to work with.

“Oh yeah, Keith, you headed into an S-rank dungeon.”

“Indeed.”

“Can you tell us about it? I’m quite interested in the monsters that you found there.” Keith smiled as he explained what had happened during their journey there. And just hearing what had happened was enough to cause the two women to gasp.
