Chapter 13: Normal 3rd Tier Dungeon

"Do you think I am five years old that you can lie to and just say "oh! I see. That's unfortunate for you Mr.Barn?

Mr. Barn, I advise you, that if you say another rubbish excuse, I am going to make you pay twice as much as your punishment since it's also on the agreement and I have the privilege to it. 

So now, Mr. Barn, I'll ask you again to make sure that what I listened to earlier was just a mistake on my part. So what is the reason why you can't accomplish your end of the deal again?" Mia inquired professionally, but the concealed anger from her voice was very apparent that Ian on the other side felt his phone becoming cold for a moment that made him speechless and thought that he was imagining it.

Ian didn't know whether to laugh or cry.' Why you didn't believe me when I am just confessing the truth. Do you expect me to say that because the previous possessor died, and I got reincarnated on the body that it takes a week for me, for the new owner to control the body?' Ian thought. 

Of course, he won't say it out loud, and even if he explains it, people will just look at him with a bizarre look. Thinking of him that has damaged his brain and needed to be carried to the mental hospital.

He also didn't want to die by her hand since she seems serious. 

Thinking of a reasonable explanation, he glanced at his window near his bed. After noticing the cloud in the sky he immediately asked.

" That's right, there's still some time before it becomes evening so put me on the Gifters that were going to clear the Portals. Fast fast before the position was seized! " Ian excitedly said.

His idea was good since it's still in the afternoon so making a trip can be done in a few hours for a low-rank dungeon but if it's a Normal or Medium rank then it will take half a day or more, it depends because of the danger they have to face.

"Did you just give me an order?" she asked calmly.

The delighted Ian who was on cloud nine because of his excellent idea froze from his spot. If Lily's voice was just like an Angel then Mia was from the depths of hell that can freeze your soul from words alone.

"O-of course not. I just give my suggestion since you know I don't have enough crystals for the penalty." Ian immediately replied. Although he was not afraid of her, his anus was clenching harder as if there's a memory that he can't remember but his body remembers it.

So he used the pitiful strategy to calm the queen that was about to let it go.

"Oh, ~ is that so. Let me see if there's a vacant place for you to join." Her voice returned to being professional, so for sure her mood receded slightly, I think.

Ian sighs with ease. He didn't think that this body feared Mia that much. There's some blurry memory with Mia but overall he can't remember anything that happened afterward. 

But for sure something transpired to him since his body reacts to Mia's cold voice and it's not a good recollection for sure that his mind automatically blurred for his sake.

After a minute Mia's professional voice was heard again.

"There were 10 parties that were about to raid a Portals but only one team was looking for a porter. The rest was looking for a strong Ability user that ranked C and above but..." 

Hearing that there's a group looking for a porter he was glad and asked what's that makes her hesitant.

"But what? Is something wrong with the party of Gifters ?" 

" There's nothing wrong with them, instead it's the Portal they are going to clear, with your Ability Rank you can join but let me tell you that it's dangerous for a newbie like you. This dungeon was completely different from the lowest dungeon that you raided in the past." She said in response.

Ian became more interested when he heard her. If the former him was just working for money, then himself was different.

He was in another world so he yearns to witness what this world can offer for him.

So instead of being scared, he was rather excited.

"What Rank of Portal do they want to clear anyway? " he asked eagerly.

Mia who listened to his reply that was eager for her reply made her want to freeze him. Here she was advising him about the risk in the dungeon. But he on the other hand was excited for his life to end.

"If you want to perish that badly just declare it to me since I will bestow your intention and it will be painless so just say when you're ready" she countered.

Hearing what Mia responded made him smile wryly and thought 'why do you want to kill me that much? Did I do anything to you that you want you to kill me so much?'

"Hahaha, Ms. Manager knows how to make people laugh. So what is the rank of the portal?" Ian chuckles dryly.

"Hmph! It's a Normal Rank that almost catches up with the Medium rank. It means that it was the First-Tier Normal rank. "

"I see, I see" Ian responded sagely as if he understood what she was talking about, but the facts are, he didn't even know the rankings of the dungeon since he just reincarnated recently. 

Although it's already 3 days since he was reincarnated, it's just today he can move freely while the rest he was unconscious.

Why he sagely responded even though he didn't know it because he just wanted to look cool even though no one was looking.

With his Ultimate Lily, he was going to know the answer without inquiring Mia. Although Lily didn't know all the questions, basic ranking like this one was easy for her, he thinks.

Mia was stunned for a moment but it didn't show on her cold face. Information about the dungeon was not a secret. Since it's also on the Daily Portal News. But the information broadcasted was fixed. Higher rankers knew the information but low rank like Ian shouldn't have known about it since he just cleared a low-level portal in his career as a porter that it didn't have any sense to her. 

But she didn't have to inquire since she understands that it's breaching his privacy, she also recalls that he has a sister that was a high ranked Gifter with her husband so maybe Ian got to know it from them, she thought.
