"You seriously don't have the house key?" Victoria asked Zach.
"How am I supposed to have the key? We were in the dungeon expedition during the start of the demon invasion, remember?"
"But why don't you have any spare key or something?"
"That's not how it works in this game." Zach let out a weary sigh and uttered, "The door automatically gets unlocked when the owner is near, or if the owner has permitted access to the house."
"Let me guess…" Victoria squinted her eyes at Zach and said, "Because the capital was destroyed and rebuilt, you lost your access?"
"I don't know." Zach shrugged his shoulders and tried to open the door, but it didn't open.
"It's not opening, so I guess that's the case," he sighed.
"So you brought us all the way here only to go back to the inn?" Victoria asked in disbelief.
"Hey, hey. We were supposed to go to the inn in the first place. It was you who suggested coming here, not me," Zach remarked.
