Chapter 26 – Episode 26. Dungeon Practice (3)

Nam Da-eun stopped at my words.

Daeun Nam, Rumi, and even Byunghun Lee were watching me.

“So, what are you going to do? The wind isn’t blowing here. Considering the monsters we met along the way, there aren’t any of them that could leave traces on the floor.”

Byunghun Lee. He was surprisingly brainy.

He was familiar with the basics of conquering cave-type dungeons.

Air flow and traces of monsters.

Of course, if there are basics, there are advanced and advanced courses.

Cave dungeons are characterized by high mana density.

Since it is a ‘dungeon’ that moves to a portal, it is possible to set up that the wind does not blow because there is no entrance or exit.

However, even if the wind is not blowing, mana is still flowing.

Because it is so dense and so minute, most people just don’t feel it.

In fact, the method of finding an exit with the movement of mana is a method not used by most hunters. Not only is the accuracy low, but the attempt itself is difficult.

“Wait a minute.”

But I’m different.

[Mana Response] And [Opening Eyes]

You can feel the mana and observe her flow, but it doesn’t make sense that you can’t see the movement of the mana.

‘Open eyes’

Jiing-

The pupils dilate as the eyes turn golden.

Mana filling the space. Observe the subtle flow of that mana.

“There it is.”

He raised his index finger and pointed to one of the 10 aisles.

Third aisle from the left.

All the mana is coming through there. That was the passage.

“What are those golden eyes? I’m sorry, but how are you so sure it’s there? I wish I could explain it roughly.”

Lee Byung-hoon expressed his doubts about my words.

“…You wouldn’t believe me even if I explained it, but wouldn’t you go if I just asked you to go here?”

“My grades are at stake. If it were you, would you go over like that?”

I rolled her eyes with a widened view and glanced at her side, and Nam Da-eun was quietly staring at me.

It seems that she is not going to move on unless Nam Da-eun also properly explains the reason.

Rumi put her hands together in front of her chest and blinked her eyes. Seeing that she has no complaints, she thinks Rumi is just fine with whatever I ask her to do.

“I read the flow of mana. All the mana flows through the third channel, so she judged it to be the third channel. Don’t ask how she read the flow.”

“No, does it make sense to read the flow of mana at the cadet level…”

Lee Byung-hun still didn’t seem to believe it.

But it didn’t matter

Because our headmaster seemed to have a different opinion.

Parbabat-

Nam Da-eun first ran towards her third aisle.

“Eh? Eh?”

I also grabbed Rumi’s arm and followed her.

Lee Byeong-hoon said from behind, ‘Oh, fuck. I don’t know,’ he complained and ran.

It took about 15 minutes while Nam Da-eun dealt with the monsters that occasionally jumped out, and I also hit magic between them to accumulate points.

The road split again. This time there were passages divided into eight branches.

“Fourth.”

Tadadak-!

As he ran while pointing his finger at the road, Nam Da-eun headed straight for it without slowing down.

“No, you can really believe it…, Ah, yes. Follow me. Follow me.”

Now I ran through the dungeon to the point where I was getting bored.

Of course, the other groups wouldn’t have time to relax because they were busy preparing for battle with the monsters, but our group had a bus driver dedicated to monsters.

“Rumiya.”

“Yep?”

“Put a shield on Nam Da-eun. You should also get points.”

“Ah, I didn’t think of that because you took care of the monsters so quickly. It’s the basic of the basics…”

No matter how important he becomes later on, he is still only a cadet.

It’s Rumi’s first practice, so he can make mistakes.

Still, since Rumi’s position is an assistant mage, she should be able to collect some points even if she only uses a shield.

I’m also guiding the way, and if I see a gap, I’m collecting points by touching them one by one with magic.

Our group will still take all the points.

…Is not it? It seems I forgot something.

Chow ah-

Nam Da-eun sliced ​​up a lizard by herself.

The snake, not knowing that he is dead, is glaring at his eyes.

Perhaps it was because she kept using [Opening Eyes] While trying to find her path, so Daeun Nam’s movements could be seen more clearly.

The body of the lizard she treated was neatly cut as if looking at a cross section.

Many people know her power as Instantaneous Acceleration. You might think that abnormal cutting power is a skill, but both are wrong.

Her authority is space control.

Her acceleration ability is to speed up the flow of time in the space surrounding her body.

It’s not that Nam Da-eun is speeding up, it’s that the space she exists in itself is speeding up.

Of course, it will be accelerated in the eyes of others.

That abnormal cutting power is also the same, a power that cuts through the space itself where her sword exists.

This is a fact that I knew from the setting up until now.

And no matter how crazy the creator is, the game setting doesn’t describe how to use magical power to accelerate the space surrounding Nam Da-eun’s body.

So I didn’t think that this would be possible.

The possibility of using someone else’s power.

The default setting is that authority is inherent in one person and cannot be used by others.

However, in the end, the power of supernatural powers such as authority and skills are all power derived from magical power.

Nam Da-eun’s ability to dominate space. Among them, mana management that accelerates space.

My [Opened eyes] Was reading her magical operation in real time.

Perhaps, I might be able to imitate her authority.

*

The cadets who finished the dungeon training began to gather one by one.

Our group’s breakthrough time was, of course, the overwhelming first place.

It was regrettable that I couldn’t meet Do Jin-hyeok Takari because he came out so quickly.

The other groups had torn clothes and dust from rolling on the ground, and some cadets could see blood, but our group was all clean.

At least Daeun Nam’s clothes were only slightly stained with the monster’s blood.

“It hurts. It hurts…”

“Don’t bully a boy just because he bleeds.”

The wounded were waiting in line in front of Baek A-young.

Our group was taking a break after the attack anyway, so Baek Ah-young approached Baek Ah-young to see something.

“Hayeot, hayeot, haaaaa.”

Baek Ah-yeong was treating the cadets while making strange sound effects just like the game.

No matter how much I listen to it, it sounds different from the moans I make from exhaustion.

It seems that others don’t feel a sense of incongruity, or whether the title of ‘saint’ doesn’t connect with strange imagination.

“You are suffering.”

I talked to Baek A-young, who had just finished treating one person.

“Ah, Mr. Hoyeon. No. This is my job.”

Even though she is sweating profusely, the smile does not leave her lips.

“Job satisfaction is pretty good? All the healers I’ve seen are dead.”

Her heals cost mana by default, but also her own health.

That’s why all the healers who finished her treatment are exhausted and break you, but Baek A-young wasn’t like that.

“Yes. It is always rewarding to treat and save people.

The last one was finished in a playful way, but it was felt in her words and actions.

Baek A-young is a person who feels joy in ‘the act of helping people’ itself.

After treating all of her injuries, Baek Ah-young looked really exhausted.

Her white A-young’s pink underwear showed through the blouse under her sweaty suit.

Beads of her sweat were running down her deep cleavage.

Gulp. Unknowingly, lust rises.

No, isn’t it weird?

I’m sweating like that and moaning strangely. Is this situation that no one suspects because it’s a treatment, am I the only one who’s weird?

Am I the only one making garbage?

Unconsciously, she glanced at Baek Ah-young’s breasts and raised her gaze, and her eyes met.

I’m sorry. She got caught

“Uh, uh. It’s fortunate. I tried my best not to hurt Ah-yeong because I thought it would be difficult.”

“Thank you. Huhu…”

Somehow she naturally turned around, but luckily she didn’t seem to notice.

… Didn’t you notice?

After the dungeon practice training of all groups, the cadets gathered and waited like the first time.

There are cases in which a group of people who seemed to be on good terms with each other became cold wars, and in other cases, groups that were not in a good relationship became best friends.

Our group was surprisingly the same.

– 1st place, 13 groups. (Nam Da-eun, Lee Ho-yeon, Lee Byung-hun, Rumi)

– 2nd place, 7th group. (Minjoon Seo, Seoyeon Kim, Yejun Jeong, Ellis)

– 3rd place 8 groups. (Do Joo-won, Ha Seo-yoon, Chae Soo-ah, and Lucy)

The top performers were revealed in the hologram where we watched the first infusion group.

“The video of all groups will be uploaded on class A’s social media, so make sure to refer to what you need to refer to. In the next class, I will point out the good parts of the dungeon practice training and the parts that need to be fixed.”

Kim Jin-hyeok, the homeroom professor, said that and left.

The remaining cadets murmured and then scattered.

Our group said Daeun Nam was the first to disappear somewhere, so I caught him.

“Nam Da-eun.”

“…?”

Still, they don’t ignore my words at all, as if they’ve developed a bond while clearing the dungeon together.

“I was lucky this time and got first place, but next time you solo solo, it will be hard to keep first place.”

“… I’ll take care of that.”

Nam Da-eun frowned for a moment and then disappeared by herself while saying that.

“Ugh, even if I give you the right advice, they won’t listen.”

Still, I should be grateful for the less aggressive tone.

Since he is still a freshman, even if his cooperativeness is low, he is moderately considerate, but if this is repeated several times, of course, we have no choice but to judge that there is a big problem in the cooperativeness part and give it a low score.

Nam Da-eun gives away first place sooner or later.

And what you get in return… I hate to imagine.

I regret it only then, but now, no matter how much I try to explain it, you won’t understand.

*

Quaang-! Pan-!

“He’s a freshman? Can I put him in our guild’s 2nd team right away?”

“So you’ve already completed the guild exclusive contract. Rumor has it that even if they offered you three times the down payment, they ignored it.”

“Tsk. When I saw it, I found a weakness. There’s no bastard in the industry that doesn’t know about the bad rumors going around the buyer’s guild, so why did they sign an exclusive contract?”

After all the dungeon practice training was over, the professors were talking in the monitor room where dozens of monitors were broadcasting their screens.

Their eyes are directed to a video in which a girl is leading the way and three people are following behind.

“You don’t give the other kids a chance to fight at all?”

“Certainly, I’m not trying to cooperate with my team at all.”

“Still, one talent is overwhelming.

“It’s still the first evaluation. We have to be generous.”

Among them was Kim Jin-hyeok, the homeroom professor of Class A.

‘Certainly, I’m sorry about the personality part compared to my skills.’

Jinhyuk Kim moved his finger over the hologram.

Next to Nam Da-eun’s name, ’95 points. However, in the next evaluation, I will score more strongly on the personality part.’

– Oh, I don’t know! Just kill them all!

– Hey, hey! Wait a minute!

Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!

Kim Jin-hyeok turned his gaze to the next monitor where the magic exploded loudly.

The image of Lucy subduing dozens of monsters at once was broadcast on the screen.

To sum up her fighting style in one word, [Attack is the best defense].

A fighting style like a boy’s cartoon that minimizes one’s own defense and defeats the enemy before I fall.

If it’s good, it’s a boy’s manga, if it’s bad, it’s a foolish fighting style.

The monsters still can’t withstand Lucy’s magic baptism and fall down before they come near Lucy, but it’s a tactic that won’t work on monsters higher than a certain level later.

I know that if that method is combined with my younger sister, Rumi, it creates a great synergy, but unless you are acting with Rumi 24/7, that assumption is not good.

In the end, Kim Jin-hyeok left a note reading 83 points next to Lucy’s name.

“The freshmen this time have a lot of stuff~ From the cute twins to Alice’s cadets to the rest of the cadets, they are all jewels.”

“That’s right. Other than that, students like Do Jin-hyeok and Lee Ho-yeon were fine.”

‘Lee Ho-yeon.’

Kim Jin-hyeok found Lee Ho-yeon’s videos more interesting than Alice’s or Nam Da-eun’s.

It was good to use magic to insert magic between Nam Da-eun’s battles at high speed, but to find the path perfectly by saying that he could read the flow of magic.

It is safe to assume that reading the flow of magical power at the cadet level has specialized skills for that area.

In fact, the reason cave-type dungeons are difficult is the accumulated fatigue and stress from going in and out of the road, but since they got rid of that, it could be said that it was a pretty big contribution.

Since Nam Da-eun was a member of the team when forming the team in the first place, the other members could see that she was more active than her level, considering her low level.

He didn’t show anything in terms of combat power, but he was a cadet who felt extraordinary.

“Um…”

After thinking about it, Kim Jin-hyeok wrote down a score of 86 points, 3 points higher than Lucy.

Kim Jin-hyeok tended to like his brainy cadet.

“Everything is good, but the amount of mana is a little disappointing. The amount of mana is too small. Since you said you have a skill, is it a skill specialized for that area? After all, you have to call it next time… But if you want to do research, do something like that… Yes, this is all for the sake of mankind…”

Mumble mumble…

“?”

Kim Jin-hyeok turned his head to the side at the strange sound he heard next to him.

There, Professor Im Sol was scribbling something while looking at Lee Ho-yeon’s monitor.

“Professor? What are you doing here?”

Im Sol, who did not normally attend such a meeting, was evaluating the cadets so passionately that Kim Jin-hyeok was also curious.

I was also curious about the authenticity of the rumor that was slowly spreading throughout the academy that there was a cadet that Professor Im Sol was interested in.

“Ah, ah… Nothing!”

However, as soon as our eyes met, Professor Im Sol grabbed her papers and ran away.

“… What the hell.”

In an instant, Imsol’s face reflected in his eyes was flushed red.
