Obtaining the 'free attribute potions' as a reward only required Emilia and her team to submit a hundred [Earthen Demonic Cores] to the 'Traders Guild', which still left them with almost eighty to spare.

Unfortunately, being a team task, just as they didn't have to fulfill the requirements individually, the rewards were also only issued once, but Emilia didn't really mind.

As good as they might sound, the 'free attributes' added by these potions weren't really permanent, and only lasted until the day's end. And aside from offering a slight boost to one's abilities in the early game, they really didn't serve much of a purpose.

Naturally, Danielle and the others also discovered this fact after they finally got their hands on their precious prize, leaving them completely stunned.

After a while, Nico and Robin couldn't help but cry. "The effect only lasts twenty-four hours?"

"Is that in-game hours? That's not what it said in the quest!"

Sylvia frowned. "Now that I think about it… aside from the item name, there really wasn't much of a description, right?"

Danielle sighed. "So we were scammed… as expected of the 'Traders Guild', I suppose, how cunning."

Looking at the embarrassed and awkward 'receptionist' of the guild, Crystal coughed. "I'm sure this was just a misunderstanding, right?"

The receptionist nodded, then turned her gaze to Emilia. "If you're unhappy with the rewards, I can talk to the guild master about it and what we can do?"

Emilia grinned and shook her head in denial. "No no, how can we be dissatisfied? What we got was exactly what was promised, and good traders always keep their word, do they not?"

In fact, in addition to the free attribute potions, they'd also received ten gold coins. Compared to the market price of the cores they'd traded in, it was far too high, though it may not be obvious yet to the rest of her teammates.

The receptionist heaved a sigh of relief, and patted her chest with a smile. "Great, then, I hope you will continue our cooperation in the future."

Emilia smiled. "Of course."

The only reason her team was given even this much 'courtesy' was because of her 'high' reputation thanks to the 'Warrior's Challenge', so how could Emilia dare to push her luck?

Obviously, it was impossible for the guild to go out of its way to scam 'little' people like them, and it was even more impossible for them to receive any further compensation just because they felt deceived.

So Emilia understood that there was no point in ruining their relationship with the guild pointlessly, and it was best to just smooth things over and move on.

Of course, knowing that the wealthy players would be throwing ridiculous amounts of money at these things once the first dungeon came out, the greatest value of these potions could only be extracted at that 'right' moment.

Although Emilia couldn't explain these things to the rest of her team, she was happy to see Danielle and the others arrive at a rather favorable conclusion after just a little guidance from both herself and Crystal.

"I guess we should keep these potions for now, then." The drill-haired girl nodded to herself. "You wanna keep them, Emilia?"

The crimson-haired elf hummed. "You keep 'em. I have too much stuff in my inventory, anyway."

Although it was her way of showing some trust and dependence on her teammates, it only caused Danielle to roll her eyes in exasperation. "Don't you have like, ten extra slots?"

Emilia huffed. "But I pick up all the trash, don't I?"

Obviously, it was mostly because she was always the closest to the 'loot' when it dropped, being the team's primary frontliner.

Watching their argument, Sylvia couldn't help but chuckle. 'Had this been before, I would definitely have thought that Danielle was being overly petty and controlling, not even treating her best player right, but now… all I can think is that she's an idiot.'

In fact, she felt it was a bit silly of herself to take the drill-haired girl so seriously. After all, being rude and confrontational came naturally to someone like Danielle, and it made no sense to butt heads with her without reason.

'Now that I think about it again… wasn't it because of Dolly that I started paying attention to her?' Sylvia frowned. 'I might have to talk to her about this later…'

It wasn't just that she didn't want her 'friend' to hate someone without reason, but Sylvia also felt a little uncomfortable when she imagined how Dolly would feel if she ever saw her 'getting along' with the likes of Danielle, given how much she hated the girl before.

Being detested by one of the few friends she'd ever made was definitely not a feeling Sylvia wanted to go through.historical

Sylvia sighed. 'It's a pity that I can't seem to get through her phone these days, though… wait…'

Unfortunately, just as she was about to have a 'realization', Crystal interrupted her thoughts with a cough. "Don't Robin and Sylvia also have that inventory boosting belt? Let's keep the team's 'shared' items with them until they each have used half their available space?"

Looking at the fresh new notifications flooding her vision, Sylvia could only stand there dumbfounded, completely forgetting her previous thoughts.

The notifications just kept going, and as if to add insult to injury, Emilia wasn't the only one doing it, either.

—You have received [Beginner's Boots] x 2 from Crystal (Human Ranger, Level 13)

"Y-You—!" Sylvia had just wanted to curse, but looking at Crystal's face, she couldn't help but recall that she still owed the girl for the bow she was using, making her completely unable to scold the blonde because of the favor. 'S-She's s-so… so… so annoying…!'
