I felt like I was stuck in the dungeon right after diving into the dungeon.

Always I was protected by him. Being with him made me feel like I could do anything, and I could actually do anything.

My annoying friend told me that I didn't like it properly, that I could be the guild adventurer, that I could dive into a dungeon, shoot magic and even defeat a monster.

I don't believe it.
