The Dungeon Seeker promotion had been running for several days.

December 24th, 3 a.m.

Hanabane Rui, who had been busy with the Dungeon Seeker collaboration throughout the day and evening, was hard at work.

“…It’s Christmas Eve.”

Realizing this fact, Rui let out a small sigh of irritation.

This was the time of year when couples nationwide were at their peak of excitement. Rui thought if they were going to be so hot and bothered, they might as well boil over to 100 degrees Celsius and die. All of them.

Not that Rui particularly wanted a partner.

Rui had never thought about wanting to experience love. No more than Aurora had.

It was just that Rui didn’t particularly like seeing people happier than her.@@novelbin@@

“Maybe I should take a break…”

Rui leaned back in her chair.

She was working on preparing materials, mostly PowerPoint slides, for an upcoming planned broadcast.

‘Everything’s going smoothly.’

That’s what Rui thought.

There were a few preliminary steps to handle before broadcasting the Aurora Showdown.

First, she needed to strengthen the camaraderie among the Leviathan team members. Lately, they had been frequently doing Dungeon Seeker collaboration streams together, and by now, the viewers probably assumed they were close.

Still, Rui wanted to solidify this perception further. She had an idea for a simple project to build that bond, but since she didn’t have the energy to handle it herself, she planned to leave it to someone else. She had already tossed the idea to Inui Kirin, trusting that it would be taken care of.

Meanwhile, Rui was preparing for "Anna’s Punishment."

“...You’ve gotten pretty good at ordering your seniors around.”

Rui chuckled despite herself, finding the situation amusing.

It was Laura’s request. She wanted to execute a specific project as Anna’s punishment, and Rui’s involvement was deemed essential. Thus, Rui was left to handle the preparations for the broadcast.

Not that it was necessarily a bad thing.

“Anna’s Punishment” would take place on Rui’s channel, and it provided an excellent opportunity to further strengthen her connection to superstar Laura.

“…Just a little more work after a short break,” Rui murmured.

* Scout/Explorer: For map navigation.

* Survivor/Protector: For combating monsters.

* Collector/Healer: For earning money.

* Records of dungeon ecosystems.

* Mapping information.

* Rare ores or items unique to dungeons.

* Even parts of monsters’ bodies.
