[Part 15]
(The last update is long since gone, it's archived here. I was struggling with ideas, but some finally came to mind.)

What choice did she have? Go alone? It was better than that... anything was better than that. "F-...fine. I'll go with you, but-... I don't think I'll be much help..."
"It'll be fine, we'll get some gear at the town or... something." The knight shrugged. "Dancers don't need gear anyway."
"Yes they do!" The two girls replied in unison, then gave each other a look. Lily reddened and looked away. "Well... you should be fine until you get to town, just... keep a low profile, okay?"
"F-fine, I'll... um... try..." For the time being, Naru stayed behind the two, trying to maintain some semblance of modesty with poor results.
Then a prompt appeared before her eyes, floating in a colorful box.
*Class Change Detected, Updating*
"Huh?" Naru stared blankly at the system prompt that had flickered into sight, seemingly visible to her alone. There was a glow of light that briefly engulfed her, and then the floating text continued. *Dancer Class Get!*
"...'get'?" Stupid Engrish translations. Of course, beyond the 'class' change', there had been no other perceivable difference. She was still very naked.
And the other two were leaving her behind.
"W-.wait!" Naru hurried to keep up with the two, and soon enough, the village was in sight. Not only would she hopefully acquire some gear here, but maybe even a way to get herself out of the stupid game completely.
It seemed a small village with a likely tiny market, but it surely had at least a few dozen residents.
And was she really going to enter like that? Naru looked down, gulped, and decided to...
[A] Ask one of the others for clothing.
Try to sneak in alone.
[C] Go in with the group.
