Dear Diary,

Well, the Admin wrote back. He says he watched the videos (which, there are videos?), and it was the hobgoblins from Floor 92.

…The hobgoblins. From the floor above us.

The one Staab came from.

As far as any of us know, they’ve never left their floor before. Meaning the first time they leave their floor, it’s to destroy stuff.

I don’t even know how they got a key! But still! Rude!!!

So yeah!

Mika, Kimi and the Sams are ready to walk up there and just destroy them. We aren’t normal players. We know they have houses. And with Staab, we know where those houses are.

Aya, Lily, Staab and I are ready to murder, but don’t want to completely destroy everything they own. Samantha is a little bit in this group, but wouldn’t say no to putting a hole in a wall.

Avi wants to talk it over first, and then if they’re unreasonable do a murder. No one was surprised by him not wanting to fight.

This leaves Y. Y… thinks we should leave it up to the Admin. Absolutely everyone was surprised by this. I mean, he’s blown up enough stuff that asking him to blow up a jerk’s house should get an instant yes, right? But he said it’s not worth it, that we can wreck them so why bother trying, and if we attack it’ll just make them retaliate. We don’t want a war, so just let the Admin do whatever.

Ensure your favorite authors get the support they deserve. Read this novel on Royal Road.

I… can appreciate that that’s a very mature and adult view of the matter.

But I still want to punch one of them in their stupid face for dumping ketchup in my soda machine.

I mean, cleaning magic did not clean it. The Admin had to just get rid of the whole machine and give me a new one! Someone needs to learn that putting ketchup where it does not belong is very rude.

Anyways, we argued about it for a little bit, and mostly we decided we’ll have to decide by tomorrow morning.

Thing is, we’re stronger than them. As goliaths, with buffs to strength, we’re stronger than them by a lot. One punch from any of us and they’re dead.

But, as Y pointed out, next cycle we’ll spend a week or so off this floor. If we make them too mad, they might get mad enough to ignore the “don’t go there” feeling and get into our apartments. That would seriously be bad.

Mika thinks we should figure something out to scare them more than hurt them, like with the lotus trap we made. The rest of us don’t want to take the time to build something, but the idea is good.

I don’t know. As much as I wish milkshakes and cookies could solve everyone’s problems, I know they wouldn’t. And I want to defend what’s mine.

Avi and Y are just… very against fighting back. And they have a point.

But it wasn’t their soda machine that got filled with ketchup.

We might ask the Admin to do something to forbid the hobgoblins from coming back and then attack. As a compromise, for Y. But I’m pretty sure we’ll be attacking tomorrow.

Goodnight, Dungeon.
