At morning

Sonya wakes up yawning, but she noticed that Siegfried is gone. She got off the bed, put on boots, and go outside. She spotted him hanging around at the light post, then he saw her come closer to him. He was sipping a cup of warm tea, since the temperature on the Blue moon remains at 58 degrees cold.

"Morning" Said Siegfried.

"I was wondering where you're at" said Sonya curiously.

"I woke up before you and left to get a warm cup of tea to keep myself warm, then I then hang around here waiting for you and Laura to wake up" he explained.

"So, how was the Scrubber job doing for you?" She asked.

"I find it very useful, besides having to wear only a towel out on the cold moon while facing embarrassment" he answered while blushing.

She placed her hand on his shoulder, in which his skin felt cool. It took at least two hours of waiting for Laura to wake up, in which she left the housing unit. Then the team went on to the medical ward to pick up Eric, since he is due to leave. At the medical ward, they found him standing at the entrance wearing his white armored suit (think of it like a space suit but without the helmet).

"Oh, Siegfried? What happened to your armor?" Asked Eric.

"It's a long story, I did change my job class involuntarily into a Scrubber" answered Siegfried.

"Are you sure you want to walk around wearing only a towel?" Eric asked curiously.

"Shut up! After a class change, I'm stuck wearing only a towel!" Snarled Siegfried while blushing.

"He's been through enough embarrassment yesterday" said Sonya.

Laura hugged Eric, knowing that he's alright. After this, the team exit the Moon Base to the south in order to explore the Blue moon. No matter where they're at, all they can see is craters and crystals that dotted the Moon. Suddenly, few goblins appeared from the crater to attack the team. Eric first saw them and told the team about the goblins, then he gets ready by pulling out his saber while the rest of the team gets ready for battle.

Siegfried is armed with a brush (in which its not really a weapon), he chose to use his fists and kicks like a monk to fight. When one goblin rushes at him to attack, he responds by punching it in the face before kicking it on its stomach with his bare foot (it hurts his toes when he does it since he's not a monk).

Sonya casts cure to heal him, and he thanks her for that.

Laura casts fira on two goblins, thus reducing them to ashes.

Eric sliced one goblin in half with his saber, then he used goblin punch on the other goblin to defeat it.

Siegfried killed the last remaining goblin with a punch and a neck snap, thus causing it's corpse to disappear into mist.

The entire team was victorious, thus earning five exp. Siegfried leveled up to level fifteen while the Scrubber job leveled up to level two, thus unlocking the two skills of "hot water" and "cold water". Eric's Scanner job leveled up to level five, thus unlocking the genome ability (allows him to use the monster abilities from monsters he already scanned). While Sonya and Laura leveled up to level fifteen, but their job classes didn't level up (they were almost there).

"Is anyone alright?" Asked Siegfried.

"Not a scratch!" Eric replied.

"None of us got hurt, thank goodness. Although, I had to heal you Siegfried when you kicked the goblin" said Sonya.

"I know, I don't think this Scrubber job is good at physical attacks. I checked it's description and it told me that it can only equip brushes and rods, but I saw that fists are ranked C" explained Siegfried.

"You should be careful in kicking and punching, because you're not a monk and monks excel at physical attacks by punching and kicking" said Laura.

"Anyways, let's go to the Lunar tunnel because I read about it leading to the Crystal Palace" said Eric.

The team took a right turn, and traveled through the road leading to the mountain range. When they get there, they saw the entrance to the tunnel with a sign that reads:

"Threat level 02. Explorers exercise caution since the Lunar tunnel is filled with monsters, bring antidotes and echo herbs before entering".

The team wondered if the imperials planted that sign to warn any low level explorers about monsters, nevertheless, they entered the tunnel. In there, there's crystals on the walls and floor that glowed in the darkness, thus providing them light. Siegfried broke off one crystal to use it like a glow stick to light the darkness, and then he showed it to Sonya (she thinks it's beautiful).

Authors note: How is the chapter so far? The team will travel to the crystal palace to investigate, but what will they find?
