On the other side, a lot of people were gathered, looking at a large interface next to the portal. There was a long list of names of people.

"Who do you think will make it this time?" asked a girl.

" William's group always has the fastest time." replied a boy.

“W-who is LickMe?” asked a man suddenly.

" What the heck " exclaimed another man.

The girl looked at the screen and suddenly saw a strange name like rank 17.

"Who is it?" she asked.

"Is that even a name?" asked a woman.

" Ha, ha, ha." I want to meet that person. He or she has a sense of humor.” laughed a man loudly.

When Lily came outside, she saw people gathered in front of a large screen that was to the left of the portal. She went to it and when she saw her name on the list as number 17, she was surprised.

She was surprised that it said LickMe and not that her name was on the list.

" Damn," she cursed softly and put a hooded cloak on and the Santa Claus mask because it was easy to check who belonged to which party because people weren't stupid.

“Wow. Look I'm rank 898.” Eline said excitedly.

"We are happy for you because the rest of us didn't make the top 1000." Carl said.

Lily was confused why she was ranked 17 because she thought it was team based.

She wondered why Eline made it on the list for fooling around and only hitting Lord Diablo a few times because she was afraid of attracting its attention.

Carl had definitely dealt the most damage so he should be on the list and wondered how the system counted their positions.

Could it be that Eline had buffed Carl with something like leech skills because then it meant that her damage would also be counted if Carl did damage.

Was it not cheating and did such a thing even exist?

" LickMe you're rank 17. Well done." praised Eskil and looked at Lily who was standing next to him.

Fuck me, why did he look at me when he said my name, she cursed.

"That's LickMe?" said a man.

Support creative writers by reading their stories on Royal Road, not stolen versions.

“Where is the person. I would like to meet him or her.” said another man.

"If you are a woman, I would like to invite you on a date." shouted a man suddenly.

Not wanting to hang out here anymore, Lily looked at Eskil and said, "Have a nice day." and quickly walked away but when she got away from all the people it dawned on her that she didn't know the area and they had flown quickly on those eagles to get here.

Damn, she cursed.

Suddenly she saw Stalker- san who was with 2 men and 2 women.

Did she really have to ask him for help, but he didn't know it was her because she was wearing a mask. He was the only one she 'knew' and he tried to get her into his guild earlier.

She walked up to him and said, "Excuse me but do you have time to talk in private?"

When the man heard her, he recognized the voice and looked at her and saw she was wearing a Santa Claus mask. She was smart and he knew well why she had done it.

"Who is that, William?" The red-haired woman asked looking at Lily.

She was wearing a Santa Claus mask and two long daggers on her back. She checked her out:

Name: LickMe

Title: Fish Slayer, Dungeon Master

Class: Assassin

Lvl: 220

It was hard to see her gender because her hooded cloak covered everything around her.

"Okay." replied the man, smiling.

When the woman saw him smile, she could suddenly taste something sour in her mouth and it looked like someone had pissed in her morning cup.

Lily and the man walked away from the others and looked at each other.

"I'm assuming you don't want to join my guild anyway." said the man, chuckling.

” Why was he so persistent with that guild, Lily thought annoyed.

"This is embarrassing to say, but the party I was with before I said goodbye to, and they were randoms who were missing a member. I don't know the way here or back when I flew with them.” she said awkwardly.

The man was surprised when he heard that and studied her closely. She probably wasn't a beginner if she could get to rank 17 out of the blue, but it really seemed like she had no idea where she was. Unless it was for something else.

"Are you interested in me. Is that why?" he asked hopefully.

Lily wanted to slap him for being an idiot.

Who the hell would be interested in a Stalker-san besides his godly handsome face.

“I spoke the truth. I was blessed by Goddess Hestia recently and have seen nothing but my room.” she said.

The man was disappointed when he heard her because he had hoped to hear something else, but it meant he could spend some time with her if they flew together back to the city.

"Okay, we can leave now, but I have to say goodbye to the others." He said walking over to his group and talking to them briefly.

Lily saw that they were all glancing at her and pretended not to notice.

When the man came back, he said, "Come let's go."

He took out a silver flute and blew it and a white magic circle appeared next to him and to Lily's surprise a huge white griffin appeared. It had big wings and its and its beak was yellow, and its feathers looked soft.

"M-may I touch it?" she asked awkwardly.

"Yes of course." replied the man, smiling.

Lily walked over to the griffin and touched its body and felt silky smooth between her fingers.

"It is nice. Now I'm jealous.” she said honestly.

"You get on first." said the man.

Lily was fine with sitting in the back and said, "No I'll just sit in the back."

"No, you have to sit in the front because it can fly so fast that you lose your balance and can fall off." said the man.

Lily sat in front and the man sat behind her and the griffin flapped its big wings, and they flew away.

"Who was that?" the woman with the red hair asked angrily.

“That person was LickMe No. 17.” replied the other woman.

“Is it a man or a woman?” asked the woman with the red hair.

"Who knows but the person's name came out of the blue and William is definitely interested." replied the other woman.
