Danmachi: The Sign In System!

Chapter 106 - Hestia's Hardwork(She's Too Excited)

"Orsted-sama, these are the adventure records of various large Familias."

"With this information, we can avoid many pitfalls in the future," Lili said excitedly, clutching a book in the room temporarily converted into a library.

"Is this really, okay?" Orsted asked, turning to Eina with a hint of concern.

He'd pieced together the situation. 

Eina had resigned from the Guild and was set to join the Hestia Familia. 

Most of these books were copies she'd made at the Guild, detailing dungeon explorations by various Familias, including extensive data on the lower and deep floors.

Normally, accessing information about the lower and deep floors required payment. 

These information, hard-earned by major Familias, weren't free. 

Only other prominent Familias could access them without cost. 

Smaller groups like the Hestia Familia, with no contributions to those floors, had to pay. 

There was no such thing as free information, and the Guild needed funds to operate.

Yet Eina had brought all this intelligence from the Guild.

"No problem," Eina said with a satisfied hum. 

"This is a perk for Guild members. The Guild allows employees who've served to take some necessary information when they become adventurers."

"So, I copied everything and brought it here."

"That generous?" Orsted asked, skeptical.

"Otherwise, why do you think Guild staff are so sought after by major Familias?" Eina replied, chuckling. 

"Every day, adventurers try to poach us. But hardly anyone who joins the Guild wants to become an adventurer, and resignations are rare—none in decades."

Orsted recalled his early days as an adventurer, frequenting the Guild. 

Idle adventurers often flirted with staff, chatting and extending invitations. 

He'd thought they were joking, but now he realized they were after this very benefit.

"The Guild only gives three days to copy, though," Eina continued. 

"How much can you transcribe in that time? To take more, I've been copying non-stop for three days."

"My hands are practically broken. Orsted, you owe me a reward," she added playfully, leaning closer.

"Alright, name your reward," Orsted said with a smile, then raised an eyebrow. 

"But copying this much in three days? That's unreal."

The volume of intelligence Eina brought was staggering. 

Even working tirelessly, she couldn't have copied it all in three days—maybe a fifth at most.

"Oh, that?" Eina grinned. "I read most of it while at the Guild and wrote it down at home." 

"As a rookie adventurer advisor, I had to know a lot, so I studied the Guild's intelligence guides."

"To retain it, I'd jot it down and review it at home. Over the years, it piled up."

"What I copied these past three days was mostly lower and deep-floor data. The upper and middle-floor info is from my notes over the years."

"That's some dedication," Orsted said, genuinely impressed.

"When I became an advisor, I had big dreams," Eina admitted. 

"I wanted to mentor an adventurer who'd rise to first-class status. I worked hard for years, but it was disappointing."

"No standout adventurers emerged, and many died. Still, my efforts weren't wasted—I met you, Orsted."

"But rather than guiding a first-class adventurer, I'd prefer to adventure with you. I look forward to working together."

She brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, her tone warm and sincere.

"Likewise, Eina," Orsted replied. "Oh, I need to find Hestia for my status update."

"Catch you later." With a nod, Eina left the room.

"Is this the surprise?" Orsted murmured, recalling Eina's hint after their date a few days ago. 

He smiled faintly.

It was indeed a major surprise. 

This intelligence would accelerate the Familia's growth and help avoid certain crises—a tremendous boon for an adventuring group.

Shifting his gaze, Orsted saw Lili, eyes gleaming as she pored over a book, and Tifa, quietly flipping through another. 

The corners of his mouth lifted slightly.

He walked over, picked up a book, and began reading.

Meanwhile, in Hestia's room, her hands were nearly sparking from the effort. 

The influx of new members was exciting, but updating their status was exhausting.

"Next!"

"Next!"

"Next!" Hestia's voice rang out every minute.
