Reward: +50 Affection Points.”

The building was almost empty by the time I had arrived, the occasional traffic of Challengers who are off to their last stretch for the day and jolting of the elevator are the only ones who are now disturbing the growing silence. I entered the building and with a smile I talked to the receptionist, "Hi, is there any available quest… that is about D or C rank?"

Maybe we could wait for the quest board to be updated tomorrow?” “Hmm, maybe? Wait, what’s that one?” Matthew pointed at a certain quest sheet. “A quest to clear undeads in the forest?” Rose read aloud the quest’s demand. “Yeah, should be doable right?”

The available quests would keep on moving around on the screen until they become claimed by someone. There were a total of ten screens in the hall, each displayed different quests with their level of difficulties. The deeper one walks inside, the more difficult the quest will be, while similarly the more points one will get from it.

Ping! On the way back, Zen received a notification from the game. Oritha received one at the same moment, and they exchanged questioning looks. “Oh? It appears as if I can claim the smokescreen grenades too,” Damian announced through the group call. “I can also see the new main quest. That’s very convenient!” Jaw falling open, Zen quickly checked his notification. Sure enough, the updated party quest-sharing system marked the chain quest as completed for everyone in Godly Food.
