Doomsday Life Simulator System In A Zombie Apocalypse World Update Era-Chapter 93: Limits Of The Train Crew Summoning Scroll
[Hearing your question, Jade contemplated for a while before replying, "I don’t mind a fourth train crew as long as he or she would be able to contribute to Zenith."]
[Scarlet nodded and agreed with Jade. After all, the three of you were already prepared to have more train crewmates.]
[The only difference was that it would be now rather than later. Moreover, since it was recruited via the Train Crew Summoning Scroll, the three of you wouldn’t be able to choose which one to recruit.]
[It would be akin to playing a gacha. However, when you looked at the Train Crew Summoning Scroll, you realized it wasn’t as simple as that.]
{Hint Prompt: If you aren’t satisfied with the Train Crewmate summoned via the scroll, you can choose to return them back to their world. However, that would go both ways. A train crewmate could also choose to return back to their world if they weren’t satisfied with the Train Crew.
But unlike the Train Conductors, a Train Crewmate could only terminate the contract after applying to report the actions and mistreatment received from the Train Crew to the World Will. Only when that report is deemed valid by the World Will would it be passed and allow the Train Crewmate to return to their world.}
{Hint Prompt: If you use the summoning scroll within this minute, you’ll be able to summon an Initial Gold rank train crewmate. He’s a Goblin Champion who had rebelled from his tribe and chose to kill goblins after realizing just how much evil the goblin race had committed.}
[After reading those hint prompts, you retold them to Jade and Scarlet. Afterwards, you commented, "I didn’t expect we’d be able to choose our Train Crewmate by using my Hint Prompt this way."]
["I had assumed all of them were fixed and not random, considering that the treasure chests we encountered already had a designated loot stored inside and what came out of it was already allocated by the World Will beforehand."]
["However, unlike the treasure chest, these summoning scrolls are completely random and will change every minute. In other words, we can just use my Hint Prompt to check what Train Crewmate we could summon and then decide whether he or she would be the one we’d summon."]
[Hearing your comment, Jade chuckled, "If you think about it, isn’t this similar to a job application? Your hint prompt will display their information, which would be similar to a job application form."]
["If we choose not to accept them, then we’d wait another minute for the summoning scroll to refresh the train crewmate summoned."]
[Scarlet nodded, "Aside from that, I also know about the right to report the Train Conductors and leave the Train Crew. However, my report application will be met with stricter standards compared to these train crewmates summoned by the summoning scroll."]
["Unless you and Jade did something that greatly violated my autonomy, such as being mind controlled, or forcing me to do something I didn’t want, like letting me seduce an enemy and sleep with them in order to obtain intel, most reports I’d make will be rejected by the World Will."]
["After all, unlike these train crewmates summoned via a summoning scroll, I had great freedom in choosing whether to join Jade and your Train Crew or not."]
["I had forgotten about this feature and no longer cared about it since you and Jade treated me well and greatly trusted me. Moreover, even if I did successfully manage to report you both, it’s not like I can return to my home world."]
["The only other option given to me by the World Will is to work for it and become a part of their official train staff. Those official train staff are those staff appointed to manage the safe zone stations, such as those that would appear after an Extreme Event."]
[You and Jade didn’t mind Scarlet not informing you two about that. After all, you and Jade treated Scarlet as a comrade and living person, and everyone would have a secret of their own.]
[Scarlet was your comrade and ally, not like Jade, who’s your girlfriend. Even lovers would have a secret they wouldn’t choose to tell the other, let alone Scarlet, who was only your comrade.]
[The only thing you needed to know was that you couldn’t perceive any malice from Scarlet. Not only that, the Hint Prompt had verified that she didn’t have any plans of leaving the Zenith Train Crew unless you and Jade wronged her greatly.]
[Scarlet added jokingly, "In other words, I can’t choose to report and leave with just a simple reason. So, even if I don’t agree with Jade liking pineapple on pizza as it’s a crime against humanity, I can’t use that as a reason to apply for a contract termination from the World Will."]
[Scarlet’s joke ruffled Jade’s feathers, causing her to retort, "What do you mean pineapple on pizza is a crime against humanity? It’s the greatest blessing brought upon the pizza world!"]
["Especially when a pizza is overly meaty and greasy, having a juicy, sweet taste to contrast yet pair with it is so heavenly!"]
[You nodded and agreed with Jade. While you weren’t as extreme as her in liking it, you didn’t care much about the toppings as long as it would result in the pizza tasting absolutely great.]
[In other words, more than the toppings, you just loved how great pizza tasted. Even something as simple as just pizza with lots of cheese was something you greatly loved.]
[Realizing that you, Jade, and Scarlet were getting sidetracked, you coughed and asked, "Ehem! Anyway, do any of you accept this Goblin Champion as our fourth train crewmate?"]
[In response to your question, Jade was the first to disagree, "A big fat no! Putting aside how weak the Initial Gold rank is, a Goblin Champion has no redeeming qualities or unique skills that he can offer to the Zenith Train Crew."]
["Inviting him to Zenith will only waste our summoning scroll."]
