trust

Time passed while I was on the second floor and in a few minutes the guild started to fill with players.

And in a few seconds a small pair of players climbed the stairs of the second floor, one of them wielding a spear as if he were a spearman, the other a sword as if he were a paladin.

"Hey, we got here early"

"Almost that, there's that guy over there"

The spearman pointed at Katsuo who had his head down on the table.

"He is sleeping?"

"Probably not"

"If so, I'll talk to him"

And then the paladin started heading towards Katsuo

"Hey, do you want to join us-"

But before he could finish speaking, the spearman grabbed the paladin's shoulder and pulled him back.

"Wait a minute, do you really want to do this?"

when the paladin looked at the spearman, he noticed that he had a serious look on his face.

"Eh? Why is this all of a sudden? You told me earlier that we needed people for our team."

"Yes I said that but, we need people we can trust"

"But he seems trustworthy-"

"Take a good look at him, he looks like he's positioned in attack mode"

The paladin looked strangely at the spearman as he crossed his arms.

"Are you an idiot? Why do you think that?"

"We're stuck in a game and we don't know a lot about a lot of things, we don't even know if we have infinite lives"

"You've died several times, it's going to be okay"

"That was before the event. Now we should be careful what we do from now on, after what that guy we saw earlier said, survival is important to us.

The paladin showed a surprised face at what the spearman said

"Ooh, I hadn't thought of it that way"

"Now he over there seems to have adapted to this game world and will kill you at the first opportunity he gets, it's not worth putting our lives at risk for that, let's put him aside and look for other people"

Leaving everything the spearman said, the paladin showed a totally carefree face.

"Alright then, let's go back"

"Hey did you hear me?"

The spearman was the only serious one in that situation regardless of what was going on.

"Yes I heard you, I just got hungry"

The paladin started down the stairs to the first floor.

"Eh?"

The spearman stood back confused by the paladin's reaction

"Hey wait for me!"

The spearman quickly descended the stairs, leaving katsuo alone again on the second floor.

"Hmm?" (Katsuo)

Katsuo lifted his head from the table looking a little tired and confused.

Looking around, Katsuo realized what he had done

Quickly getting up from his chair Katsuo yelled to himself

"I fell asleep!?!?!?" (Katsuo)
