"Of course we'll be doing that soon. I planned to go to the dungeon tomorrow if we can work well enough as a party today. The recommended level is 24 to 26, and we're already above that. So it should be fine." Alakai replied. "With that said, how about we go level as a party in half an hour or so?" The three that he wanted with them were sitting with them at the moment so he figured he might as well ask. "Tomorrow huh? That's pretty fast. But we're pretty much prepared for it already anyway, so we could be ready." Josie answered. "As for today, we've been wondering about how to go about this since we woke up. But it seems we can count on on you for the planning part." Alakai nodded with a slight smile. "Sure, leave the planning up to me." He would feel more at easy when they followed his plans anyway. As that meant there would only be slight alterations to his overall plans rather than large ones. 

"With everything in mind, I'll be going for a bit then. I need to buy some ingredients to make food that gives stat buffs. Kali, if you want you can stay here and talk with everyone a little more. Or do you need anything before we go as well?" Whether she went with him or stayed, Alakai headed out after that. He was gone for about 20 minutes before returning. After that it took another 8 minutes to make the 10 shaved pork meat sandwiches. The guild had a great kitchen with even a working stove so it was easy to make for him. And after that it was pretty much already time to go.

Once everyone was ready to go Alakai had another question. Something he hadn't thought of until he wanted to go get Khronos from the guid's stables. "Oh, I almost forgot...do you guys have mounts yet?" In the game he had calculated that the earliest mount could be bought at level 23 to level 30, depending on how much one saved and got lucky with item drops to sell. But now things might be different. "Luckily, we do. The guild put some money together so we have four mounts in total that we share." Josie answered. "Share? You mean you can share mounts?" Alakai replied in surprise. "Yea, it surprised us too. Since mounts are physical beings in this world anyone the mount is familiar with can ride it. You two ride your leopard together as well don't you?" Alakai nodded, feeling a bit dumb for not realising it sooner. "I guess you're right...Kali even steered once before. Well, all the better. Otherwise it would take a good 4 hours to get to where I want to level. There's a goblin cave to the west past the farming village. Decent respawn rate, and the monsters are level 28 to 31. A bit higher than the ones in the dungeon. But dungeon monsters are always harder. So it should be a good spot for some exp, and to get used to working as a full party." With just him and Kali it would be a bit risky to go there, but still worth it. But with a party it should be just the right amount of challenge. "Well then, let's go get our mounts. The more time we have now, the better the dungeon will go."

In the stables Joan came to see Alakai's leopard before they went. It was only natural, as in the real world no one had an opportunity to get this close to what was normally a dangerous predator. Khronos growled a little as he approached. Though Alakai, of course noticing that, quickly patted the beast's head. "It's okay Khronos, he's a friend." Because of the growling Joan was a bit nervous as he came closer, though he still looked delighted when he carefully petted it's soft fur. "Incredible...you can't do this kind of thing in the other world..." He mused softly. Though he quickly focused on the task at hand and went to one of the horses. He had his own while the two girls shared one. Since June was a bit too short to get her feet in the stirrups. And with that they set out to their destination.
