Looking where the voice was coming from. It was a woman with bright green hair, green eyes, and a plant on her head.
"I'm looking for something to eat. But the food here is different from where I'm from."
Not only was there a swampy red soup-looking food. But there was also a frozen dish that was frozen.
"Do you need anything from me? I doubt you would come up to me with no motive."
"Isn't your trust in anyone a bit too low? You won't find someone you will love from being that wary."
"You don't have to worry about that."
Nene and Reina were already enough, and those two could cause me a headache when they fought. I don't want a third girl coming in for more headaches.
"Oh? Do you have someone already? Please share."
"You seem a bit too comfortable with someone you just met."
"Is there something wrong with that? I believe that everyone here should be friends."
"On a side note, I haven't introduced myself. I'm Claire Violet."
Claire, who had better manners than Blaine, told me her name. She looked a bit too prim for someone who was a bit flirty earlier.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom "I'm Charles Anderson."
"So Charles, could I call you that? Or do you want me to call you Mr. Anderson?"
"Charles is fine."
I hated that name. Whenever I hear my last name, I connect myself with that failure. I need to get rid of my last name.
"Then Charles. What do you think of the other competitors? Anyone here caught your interest?"
"Don't have much to go on. All I need to do is beat the other competitors."
"Oh! So much confidence."
Her hands covered half of her face. She was shocked by how much confidence I had.
"If you don't have confidence, you have already lost."
Claire was silent, thinking deeply about my words.
"Master~! Are you going for another woman~!"
Nene appeared in the nick of time. This habit of her of talking out loud needs to stop.
"Oh my! Another woman? Charles, I didn't take you for a womanizer."
My eyes twitched in annoyance. Bitch you're the one who talked to me first. Nene, who was beside me, couldn't help but chuckle. I pulled her cheeks for her being cheeky with me.
"Ow! Maasta! Twat hwrts!"
"It's supposed to hurt. A bad cat deserves punishment."
"If you want to punish me, you could do it in bed~!"
Claire blushed hearing what Nene had said. She is a lot more innocent than I thought she would be. Nene couldn't help but grin seeing Claire's face.
"I'm Nene~? You're~?"
"I'm... Claire"
"Claire~! Do you want to join Master and me in bed~?"
"Wawawhaat??? You aren't serious, are you...?"
Claire freaked out a bit when Nene tried to tease her. Nene was having too much fun playing with the flower girl.
"Who knows~!"
"Sorry about her. Sometimes she can take her jokes too far."
"I wasn't flustered or anything. But for you to joke about being in bed together."
"That part wasn't a joke~!"
"..."
Before Claire could be any more embarrassed, the lights around the party had been turned off. The room was now dark, and the stage was lit up.
"Has everyone been enjoying the party so far!"
A man with a blue wing on his back shaped like a dragon stood in front of the stage. Everyone could tell by looking at him that he was someone important.
"Yeah!!!"
The crowd went along and raised their voice. The party must start about now since the main event is about to happen.
"Well then! It would only get better! The main event you'll have been waiting for is now about to begin!"
"Woooh!!!"
Not only cheering but whistling could be heard. Everyone must be excited seeing how happy the main event is to start.
"Thirty new talents will be competing in today's event! We'll be doing three games, and each game will give a prize!"
"Without any more waiting, let's begin the first event. May I have all the competitors come up for the first event!"
Nene, Claire, and I went up to the stage together. We separated from Claire and met up with Jasmine.
"Now, please stand in a circle with your team! The first game is simple! You'll be teleported together with your team, and you'll be doing a scavenger hunt!"
This game requires luck, right? A grin leaked on my face, and I immediately cursed all the competitors with 15% power.
Nene and Jasmine knew what was up. Even Linsey, who was spectating, couldn't help but laugh at the event. Some people were looking at Linsey but didn't know what was up. With me cursing them, my chances of winning were now much higher.
"Is everyone ready!"
The dragon guy didn't let us speak and teleported us right away. We were teleported into a winter field and were separated from everyone else.
"Everyone, before you start the game! We have forgotten to mention the rules!"
"The presents around the map would be wrapped in gifts! The person who opens the best gift after the event wins!
So it wasn't about quantity but the quality of the gift. Should I have cursed the competitors even more? Using my skill, I could see everything—even the other competitors.
"In this place, monsters will appear! Some of them will drop gifts once you defeat them. You can die in this place, so be careful!!!"
"Now that the rules are explained, you may begin!"
"Follow me. I know where most of the presents are hiding."
My skill allows me to observe the whole map. Even the gifts nearby. While we were spawned in the middle of nowhere, a hill near us had multiple gifts. There's bound to be a good gift in one of them.
"Do you have a skill relating to vision?"
"I just know."
"That's not an answer..."
"Let's follow Master~! He can't be in the wrong~!"
"Stupid couples..."
"Hehe~! And that's why you're always single~!"
