There were many college freshmen who were fresh out of high school and entered university.
They wanted to enjoy the cheerful and lively beginner life, but ignorant-looking misters approached them.
“Kyaaaaaah!”
The Orc females showed their broad backs as they fled!
They may be dull, but the SwordNoobs were able to feel it at this level.
“Something’s strange.”
“Seems like Zephyr’s advice isn’t having any effect at all.”
When having a date, grasp the atmosphere and don’t talk too much.
The third advice also only showed negative side effects.
They managed to get a date finally after a hundred attempts, but the SwordNoobs were just staring silently.
An awkward and uncomfortable atmosphere. The female Orcs were forced to stand and down their meals.
“I ate well. Chwik! We’re going now. Chwit chwit.”
The SwordNoobs waited anxiously, but they weren’t able to see those females again.
“Something isn’t right here.”
“That bastard Zephyr tricked us.”
Bitter retribution!
“He tricked bachelors because of lack of people in the world to lie to?”
“We worked so hard to create opportunities… But now the rumors have spread, so the female Orcs just run away at the mere sight of us!”
Zephyr came to the dojo regularly and received training, because SwordNoob2 had dragged him by the hand and he became a new member.
The amount of training increased by 3 times as much.
“We need a dating method that suits us.” The SwordNoobs learned from their failure and reflected on themselves.
It was a good chance to realize one’s shortcomings.
They asked Maylon, Hwaryeong, Romuna, Irene, and Surka about what kind of aspect they lacked compared to other men, or if they weren’t attractive.
The very first one, Romuna spoke as if there was nothing to ponder, “First of all, your body is too thick. It’s a bit burdensome because you have so much muscle.”
“If you’re a man, you gotta have this much muscle!”
SwordNoob3 flexed his forearm.
Forearms 52 cm (~21 inches) thick!
They were much thicker than a woman’s thighs, and sinews wider than worms wriggled.
Their forearms weren’t the only muscular ones. Their legs were thicker than a woman’s waist.
“How’s my manliness?”
“Urgh, muscles like that aren’t manly, just gross.”
Their likeability decreased through muscles.
Maylon pointed out their attire. “You have absolutely no fashion sense. What exactly do you usually go around wearing?”
Fashion was also important in Royal Road.
When wearing a robe, boots in matching color had to be purchased. The fabric was dyed, and even if the special effect dropped a little, matching as a whole was held in high regard. Pretty clothes or well-designed armor sold for especially high prices.
Since Royal Road was like a society in reality, going around well dressed was very important too. People even took care not to let their clothes or armor get dirty while exploring dungeons. It was a basic courtesy of a Knight to clean their armor until it sparkled if they had reason to go to a town or castle.
But the SwordNoobs equipped were not metal, but swords and armor made out of rotten bones.
Bone Breast Armor, Bone Sword. Advanced items made from the bones of the Bone Dragon!
Weed had personally produced and given it to them, but the disgusting, foul odor was no small issue. Chainmail pants, gloves and helmets with holes in them. It was completely wanton equipment.
“I usually only wear Martial Arts uniforms and sportswear.”
The voices of the SwordNoobs became smaller.
“If it’s sportswear, then you mean a tracksuit? There’re lots of pretty tracksuits these days.”
The tracksuits Maylon was talking about were produced by sports companies to match the top trends, or were jumpers released by famous brands.
But the tracksuits the SwordNoobs wore were thick, grey sportswear reeking of sweat! Having worn only uniforms and sportswear for over 10 years, their fashion sense was completely non-existent.
Hwaryeong also said, “Do you have a female friend? Do you have a woman you know and spend time with, but not a girlfriend? If you’ve got lots of friends you can comfortably hang out with, you’ll be able to find a girlfriend quickly too.”
The SwordNoobs could only heaved a sigh.
