Chapter 23 – From F Grade to E Grade Student. (4)
Class D dungeon.
From D-class monsters, due to the mana barrier emitted from the magic stone, humans’ chemical weapons are impervious to it, and unless it is an attack containing magic power, the mana barrier cannot be penetrated.
That’s why all students had to polish the stat called mana.
Dungeon practice is conducted over Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays from the 7th class to the 1st class, the last half.
The place we challenge is the dungeon-type glass world. The dungeon-type glass world differs from the field-type glass world in which monsters are hunted by wandering around a wide area. The number of monsters is small, the rewards are salty, and traps and labyrinths are installed everywhere, so the clearing time is fast due to the mental stress, but it is an unpopular glass it was the world
“Even if you die in a dungeon, it’s okay. The elixir is prepared, so feel free to take on the challenge with confidence!”
The homeroom teacher, who had about 30 students lined up, shouted at us with a loud voice.
Elixir.
In terms of games, it is an item with the same concept as a resurrection stone, and it is an item that restores status abnormalities such as boredom and lethargy felt when returning to the real world after dying in the glass world.
I think it was about 500 GP each.
“First of all, let’s start with group 1! Group 1, Laysha and 4 others come forward!”
When the homeroom teacher called his name, a total of five students came forward.
Laysha, a British student with blond hair and blue eyes like the sea, took the lead.
‘He was number 1 on the popularity ranking, maybe…’
Every time I write a post, I remembered the commenters who shouted that it was Laysha rather than Ayoung.
They don’t know What a great girl our Ayoung is.
By the way, Laysha’s appearance was also formidable.
‘Ike… Did I stare at you too much.’
After thinking about the original world for a while, I must have looked at it for too long. Maybe she felt her gaze, and her eyes met with Laysha, who turned her head. She made eye contact with me for a second, then looked away, perhaps losing interest.
“A teacher will be waiting for you on each floor, so if you want to give up, tell the teacher at any time and follow the teacher’s lead to get out of the dungeon!”
“Yes.”
As expected, Laysha answered as if she were the party leader.
Laysha’s party slowly crossed the entrance to the glass world and entered.
Soon, a large hologram appeared next to the entrance, and began mediating the appearance of Laysha’s party’s dungeon raid.
It seems that they trained pretty hard in preparation for practice, and after entering the world of glass, they immediately started looking at the surrounding geography without much conversation.
A male student with plain black hair and black eyes. He seems to be the Pathfinder of this party.
He said something and pointed in the direction with his finger, and Laysha’s party started moving through the dungeon following his words.
As if they had found the right path, they were moving forward without any blockage, and the Pathfinder stopped the party as if they had sensed a trap.
Their party looked around the area for a while before discovering that one of the stones making up the stone floor had been pushed under.
“As expected, Gunwoo’s search skills are pretty good.”
“Yes, rather, in the dungeon-type world of glass, the ability of the student Geon-wu might be better than that of the Laysha student.”
Behind the students who were sitting and watching the hologram video, a deep silence fell between the students as they heard the voices of teachers exchanging stories while holding up paper and writing something down.
Most of them seemed nervous or uncomfortable because they knew that they would be evaluated soon, but a few students felt confident.
She is me. While she was just thinking of doing well and coming, Ah-yeong’s eyes looked as if she was expecting her turn to come back soon.
Anticipation.
She felt like she was rediscovering what a wonderful woman she was.
‘Hmm… First of all, I’ll have to acquire the ability to search like that guy named Geon-woo…’
My search ability did not tell me the geography and traps like Laysha’s party’s Pathfinder, but only the enemy’s location.
[Do you want to acquire Search (Lv1)? Search abilities merge and disappear. Cost: regular 700]
As expected, it was a skill that could be used in a wide range, such as enemy locations, mazes, and traps, so it required a fairly high level of regularity.
I learned the skill by using all the energy I got from having sex with Ayoung last night.
It was the first time since I came to this world that I saw a single digit regularity, so my heart was a little prickly, but if I missed this opportunity, I don’t know when the opportunity will come again.
On the screen, the first battle finally began.
Probably the boss on the first floor, behind the monster I could see the stairs leading to the lower floor.
“Gureuttong!”
Bent waist. Blue skin and disgusting buck teeth protruding here and there.
Except for its high regenerative power, it was an F-class monster called a troll, worse than a goblin.
The battle was over in an instant.
Laysha, who pulled out a thin rapier in an instant, cut his torso in two and they headed for the second floor.
“As expected, he is agile and moves well, befitting a student who achieved B grade in 3 months.”
“No, it’s too early to make a hasty decision. Even a D-class student can barely cut a troll in two with one sword.”
From behind came a solemn voice denying the words of the other teacher.
I wish I could say it a little less audibly.
∴
In the video, the appearance of Laysha’s party, which finally encountered the boss of the fourth floor, the last floor, caught my eye.
The boss of the 4th floor was a stone golem with a solid body and an enormous mass.
The first to attack was the Stone Golem.
He quickly swung her arm at Laysha, who was standing in front of her, wondering how he could move that filthy heavy arm made of stone.
As expected, it seemed that he instinctively recognized the most dangerous person, probably because he was a monster with developed instincts.
However, the golem’s first and best attack was easily blocked by the solid shield.
Chloe, the silver-haired knight of Laysha, calmly held up her shield to block the Golem’s attack and then spoke to Laysha.
He probably asked if I was okay.
Laysha, not blinking her eyes, replied with a nod of her head.
I felt the trust in Chloe.
Leysha took out her rapier, which she had tucked in her waistband, and swung her sword.
But she was different from when she cut the troll.
As she swung her sword while stepping on soft but strong and graceful steps, as if watching a beautiful dance, a small beautiful red rose bloomed from the trail of her sword.
And the leaves of the rose flower seemed to flutter in the wind, and then they came together in one place and cut the golem once more along the trail of the sword.
A single swing and a nearby sword strike.
As if that was enough, Ley Sha put her rapier into the scabbard, and sigh…! With a noise, the golem split in half began to crush.
“Oh oh…”
I unknowingly spit out admiration, and exclamation flowed out from the other students who were silent as if everyone felt the same thing.
‘I’m so fucking hot.’
It was like watching a scene from a really well-made fantasy movie.
Of course it’s real.
“Hmm. Great.”
“It’s too soon,” She said, nodding her head contentedly at the instructor wearing her sword, who earlier said it was too early to jump to conclusions when she cut her troll in two.
Golem is a D-class monster. She wouldn’t have been a very difficult opponent considering her rank was B, but dealing with it in one blow was another matter. And the swordsmanship she showed was also elegant and neat.
After a while, Laysha’s party members began to come out of the glass world one by one.
“It was a lot of work. Let’s watch the other parties’ strategy.”
“Yes.”
When the homeroom teacher briefly congratulated them, Laysha lowered her head and replied.
“If you wait for a while, the pistil instructor will install the camera and come out. In the meantime, we will proceed with the feedback.”
The pistil instructor, who was standing in silence, entered the world of glass with a camera that uses magic stone energy.
At most, D-class monsters wouldn’t notice the skilled pistil instructor.
And the feedback that followed was virtually non-existent.
It seems that the first team with the best skills was sent first, explaining how to attack Laysha’s party, and adding a little advice.
The other party members, Ayoung and I, waited for our turn while listening to the homeroom teacher.
∴
“Finally, one member of Team 7, Kim Si-woo, should come out.”
After being commanded, Ayoung and I got up from our seats and walked out in front of the entrance to the glass world.
“I’m sure you’ve already heard enough warnings. Please enter right away… And I hope I don’t disappoint you.”
“Do not worry.”
The homeroom teacher spoke to me in a low voice so that the other students could not hear.
Nothing to worry about. I wasn’t full of confidence, so I was overflowing.
I started to hear the students talking behind me.
It seems that the tension has been relieved since their turn is already over.
The sound of ridicule, the look of disregard.
It really didn’t look boring.
‘That’s all there is.’
I was going crazy because I was curious what their reaction would be when they saw Ayoung and I come back after clearing the dungeon. In the distance, Seoin, whom I didn’t know was there because it was so quiet, was looking at me with worried eyes.
Ayoung and I entered the world of glass with a familiar feeling of dizziness.
[Rating: D-class dungeon type]
[1st floor 1/1]
Also, due to the nature of the glass world, which resets the moment a person leaves and enters, a new monster was regenerated, and there was only one monster.
Increase mana by 62
Seek 6 rise.
You cast a 7th level search using 97 mana.
Feeling the angle of the field of vision gradually widening, I saw a green line as if guiding me to this place.
“Let’s go here.”
“Huh.”
She moved forward along the green line, aiming for a quick clear as she and I had previously agreed.
The search ability was surprisingly simple and comfortable.
Laysha’s Joe stopped for a while and the trap he was looking for was marked in red, so I told Ah-young every time I got over it safely, and we went straight without stopping.
Not long after that, we arrived at the boss room on the first floor.
“Keruk…”
The boss on the 1st floor is Hobgoblin, who was the main source of magic stones for Ayoung and I.
“Grune.”
This place was an underground dungeon made of stone, the realm of Grun, the spirit of the earth.
When Ayoung called his name briefly, sharp stone spikes rose from the stone ground where the hobgoblin was standing, and the hobgoblin fell to his death.
And the second floor, the next floor.
The second floor was not much different from the first floor.
There were just more traps, more complicated mazes, and occasional monsters.
Of course, nothing stood in our way.
Big Snake, the boss of the second floor, was hit by my magic missile and disappeared as dust.
And 3rd floor.
The third floor was focused on monsters rather than mazes and traps. E+ to D- grade monsters such as Skeleton Warrior, Mad Hound, and Black Troll appeared, and Grun gave strength every time.
5 black trolls came out as bosses on the 3rd floor.
Since each of them is a D- grade monster, it’s not an easy opponent when you look at our rank, but… Our skills were already unrestricted by rank.
Since it was an enclosed space with no water and no wind, Ayeong could not use other spirits other than Grun, but Grun was enough.
In the end, Ayeong killed 2 black trolls with spiritism, and 3 black trolls got air holes in their heads after being hit by my magic missile.
And the last 4th floor.
The fourth floor was a straight path with no mazes, monsters, or traps.
And at the end of the road, there was a sturdy iron door that exuded a sense of being the last room.
“Siwoo…”
As if Ayeong was nervous, she held my hand and called her name.
For a moment, I was conscious of the camera, but fortunately it wasn’t the angle the camera could see.
“It’s okay, let’s get rid of it quickly and go back. Shouldn’t you show me?”
“Huh…!”
Ayoung nodded at my words and looked at her iron door.
-Kiik.
The iron door, which had been tightly closed, opened unexpectedly easily, and a wide cavity came into view, and then the sound of something fluttering came into the ear.
“Gargoyles…!”
Ahyoung said in surprise.
‘Perhaps the gargoyle was a D+ class monster.’
[Gargoyles have awakened to deter intruders!]
[It took less than 20 minutes to reach the 4th floor.]
[The difficulty of the glass world has been increased from Class D to Class D.]
I felt the movements of the pistil instructor standing right next to the stairs on the 4th floor using my search skill.
I couldn’t feel any sign, probably because I was a pistil instructor, but I think I know that he doesn’t seem to have any intention of coming here.
‘Is it to see his skills?’
“Oh, can you do it?”
“Of course!”
Ah-young, who was momentarily surprised by the appearance of the gargoyle, burned her will as if she had never done it.
In addition to the gargoyles, she had to dissipate power because there was a pool of water that looked like a small pond and a blue golem standing next to it.
“I will take care of the gargoyles. Ahyeong, you take care of the blue golem.”
“Okay…! I’ll finish it soon and help you!”
I don’t know who will finish first, but A-Young seems to want to finish quickly with her sincerity. She uses Mist and Grun at the same time.
The water gushing out of the pool took the form of a whip, ensnared the blue golem, and beat it repeatedly. Not only that, the stone thorns sprouting from the ground, walls, and ceiling were attacking the blue golem.
For reference, she reached level 2 of spiritism within 2 days of signing her spirit contract.
“Then let me begin.”
– Increases mana by 50
-Increase Agility by 20
-Increases physical strength by 12
-Raise Magic Missile Lv4
After setting the buff, she floated in the air and glared at the gargoyle staring at me.
The feeling of her arrogantly looking down at me, as if she was going to give me a chance to attack first, was quite unpleasant.
“OK. I go first.”
Use Magic Missile.
Five times.
Behind me, a white orb of concentrated mana floated.
An attack that uses about 20% of mana.
Seeing my magic missile, the gargoyle seemed a little taken aback and started moving her body to attack.
“It’s already too late. Sick.”
I wasn’t arrogant like a gargoyle.
As soon as it was ready to attack, it fired 5 magic missiles, and the missiles hit the gargoyle and caused a small explosion.
‘Is it still lacking?’
As expected, the D-class, which had a mana barrier, seemed to be different, but unlike the Mad Hound, who died instantly with a single magic missile, it was still floating in the air.
However, as expected, he had suffered quite a lot of damage, and the stone fragments that made up his body fell into his eyes.
“You can’t be careless like that.”
I looked up at the gargoyle and laughed at him.
I don’t know if it’s because he took quite a lot of damage or because he was angry, but seeing the gargoyle shaking his body made me feel like I was going through a hole in my stomach.
As he prepared to fire his magic missile once again, the gargoyle flapped his wings as if it was his turn this time, and began to fling piles of sharp stones.
He quickly dodged it, but got small scratches here and there.
“Tsk… What are you doing to hurt? Heel.”
I used the heel to heal the bleeding wound little by little.
It seems I was a bit careless this time.
Without hesitation, I fired the magic missile at the gargoyle again, and the gargoyle threw a pile of stones at me.
A brief battle.
And in the end, I was the winner.
The gargoyle, whose body and wings were separated by the last magic missile, began to fall.
-Thud…!
The gargoyle crashed to the ground with a fairly loud sound, and the stones that formed the body of the gargoyle spread out along with the dust.
Turning his head, he looked at Ah-young and, almost at the end of the battle, the Blue Golem was kneeling on his ground, missing one of his arms.
[Cleared the glass world of the special D grade!]
[Reward: 50 (+300) points]
∴
“… Good work.”
After the battle, when I was about to go back out of the glass world, the pistil instructor who was waiting by the stairs on the 4th floor said.
“Especially your navigation skills. Even if I didn’t use the stealth skill, the level was high enough to be noticed if I was careless.”
I thought he was a quiet character, but he seemed to be the type to talk quite a bit.
“Oh, thank you.”
I’m not sure if it’s a compliment or a sarcasm, but it’s probably a compliment.
Of course, the feeling of being praised wasn’t bad, so I bowed my head slightly.
“… Then.”
After he turned his back, he returned to the cavity where the gargoyles were located to retrieve the camera.
After looking at his back for a while, Ayeong and I climbed the stairs again and headed out of the glass world.
“Awesome. I also heard compliments from the pistil instructor.”
“Is that so?”
“Yes, pistil instructor, he’s very reticent and doesn’t do well with praise or scolding.”
This feeling of a premium attached to something praised. Not bad.
After talking about this and that for a while, Ayoung and I finally arrived at the exit of the glass world and threw her body into it.
Back to reality
I looked around.
It was as quiet as a dead rat.
The opposite feeling from before we entered the glass world.
The faces of the other students were not contempt and ridicule, but bewilderment, surprise, and a little regret.
‘That’s why I should have lived a good life.’
This is all up
I looked at Ah-young once and then at Seo-in.
Ayoung was looking at me with a happy expression, and Seoin was looking at me with an admiring expression.
