Another World Mall
Chapter 61 Cloviss Choice
"Here you go." Clovis brought a huge plate with the cockatrice nuggets. Early in the morning, he went to the convenience stores to buy all kinds of things to accompany the nuggets and ice cream.
Since he had seven item limits, he bought four cockatrice nuggets and three minotaur ice creams. He wanted to test whether they would notice it or not, since he had prepared several excuses to fool them for the time being.
While waiting, Kanaria was compiling their files and missions. Before they started eating, she showed the recommendations to Clovis.
"By the way, what do you think about this person? I asked my mother yesterday, but she said that while her character was questionable, her skill was pretty high." Kanaria asked, showing the information.@@@@
"Hmm?" Just like Kanaria, when he saw the recommendations of the other two people, it was quite impressive. But when he reached the third one, he couldn''t help but furrow his eyebrows.
"Well, you''re going to choose our operator. So, you can take your time. At least, we have to give an answer before twelve."
Clovis thought for a moment. "Can you ask her this question? If she is lazy, doesn''t that mean she is useless? If she answers with ''No,'' accept her. If her reply comes in the form of an explanation, I''m going to pick the other two. Anyway, you can talk to her for now.
I''m going to the convenience store to buy some stuff."
Kanaria tilted her head in confusion. She didn''t expect that Clovis had another opinion about this person.
Then again, Clovis had made a decision, so it would be better to test it.
This was the first time he ate something that needed to be cooked. Before, all the canned food from Another World Mall tasted quite the same. But considering this was Tier 1, he expected that it would be either better or worse.
That was why he was the first one to grab the nugget to taste it. But the moment he bit it, Clovis couldn''t help but widen his eyes.
"Still, I can''t understand why you want to hire her if that''s her answer. Is there a catch here?"
"If she is truly lazy, then she won''t bother to explain it. In other words, her ability should be like what your mother vouched for. If she is going to explain her laziness, it''s fake laziness.
"That''s why I asked whether she was useless or not. If she is not useless, she must have done the bare minimum of the jobs. So, the rest of the consideration is about her tier. Tier 2 humans should be able to protect themselves."
"Oh!" Kanaria nodded in understanding. "But the bare minimum, huh... Shouldn''t we take the proactive one?"
"Not really. More often than not, the proactive ones are bound to mess up in one way or another. After all, they might do something they are not confident in." Clovis shook his head.
"Oh!" Kanaria thought for a moment. "Meanwhile, the lazy one doesn''t do anything they are not confident in. And when needed, they might do things one step further since it''s still within their capability. In the end, they only complete the bare minimums."
"Yup. That''s the reason why I want to get her."
Kanaria nodded in understanding. "I have sent the request to her. We should be able to get a response soon. I''ll also ask her about the devices that we need for the next exploration."
"In that case, I''m going back now. I have to undergo numerous scoldings after this." Jay sighed.
"Hahaha." Clovis chuckled. "Sure. If you need anything, you can call me. I will do my best to help you."
Kanaria also stood up while saying, "I''m going to send all the mission''s details later. Since this is the first time we''re fighting on the surface, I hope that everyone can go through the details."
"Got it." Clovis nodded and walked with them outside. It was only for a day, but the loneliness he had suffered in the last year had been erased. There would be more opportunities like this anyway. "Good luck."
"See you tomorrow, Clovis."
