Chapter 52 – Dungeon Practice (2)
Iona Francesca is a beautiful woman.
Dark red eyes that shimmered just like her softly wavy dark red hair.
The pure white skin, which seems to ooze out when you touch it, contrasts with the bloody color, further doubling its charm.
On top of that, how about a bursting body that can’t be hidden even with plain clothes?
It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a curve that any man can only stare at in a moment of dismay.
If it’s natural, then it’s natural.
The appearance of a vampire was a hunting tool that attracted humans like the light of a lantern.
This may be why, despite being a race that reproduces by blood-sucking, they have a body that maximizes femininity.
But despite this, the reason why the male students at the academy weren’t bewitched by Iona is simple.
It’s because of the puny behavior that offsets the overwhelming beauty.

Rolling and rolling.
Today, as usual, Iona, who entered the classroom with three consecutive forward rolls, jumped up and shouted.
“Iona appears!”
But has she completely gotten used to it in the past month or so? As if this much was nothing, the students calmly greeted Iona.
It looks very friendly.
Do they know She knew that Iona was deliberately acting ridiculous in order to have a normal human relationship like she is now.
What… Everyone will know later, but at least for now, they’ll just think Iona is a great but unusual person.
Iona, who had been chatting with the students around her for a while, banged on her desk.
“Quiet everyone! I have an important story today!”
No matter what happens, the classroom becomes quiet in an instant, befitting students who respect Iona’s authority as a professor.
In the silence mixed with a bit of tension, Iona smiled as usual.
“You know, you know. There may be some people who have heard it elsewhere and guessed it roughly… Our class A has dungeon practice in a week! You can look forward to it because you’re going jointly with class A from another department!”
Finally… !
I was wondering what Iona said about an important story, but it was about her dungeon practice.
Although it has faded a bit now, the goal of the academy was to exterminate cultists and clear all dungeons.
That’s why class A students who think they have enough skills are allowed to experience the dungeon at least once, even if they are only one month old chicks.
Of course, it wasn’t any dungeon, it was a special dungeon thoroughly managed by the academy.
Basically, a dungeon is a trace of a good god’s failure to eat the forces of the evil god.
It was a setting that the monster village and the surrounding area were wrapped in a seal, and the attempt to send it to the other side of the dimension was caught by the evil spirit and failed.
Because of that, the boss monster, or the object called the core, which received the protection of the evil god, albeit belatedly, held the dungeon to this world like a wedge.
However, is it because I was forced to catch it on the way to go to another dimension?
Some dungeons are stable like the field dungeons that Karla and I attacked, but some dungeons have strange phenomena happening inside.
One of them is the Regen Dungeon.
Due to the twisted space-time inside the dungeon, to a place where monsters that died at regular intervals continue to revive.
The only way to clear the dungeon itself is to somehow clear the dungeon itself by destroying the boss or the core before the next cycle begins.
If you make a mistake, you can get stabbed in the back of the head during the boss fight, or you can be forced into an infinite battle of attrition, so it’s a type that belongs to the tricky side among the various dungeons.
But what if there is a regen type dungeon where only sloppy monsters like goblins and kobolds appear?
If you manage the boss properly, can’t you use it for training?
Even though the raid was over with that idea, the dungeon that we will go to practice this time is still maintained.
It’s only from the 2nd year that they go practice in an ordinary dungeon like other adventurers, but even the 1st year, who are still chicks, can’t do that.
Freshmen must go only to this practice dungeon.
Even so, they go in order of grades, so if you’re in C class, you can only go there in the second semester… Not class A.
Being able to practice dungeons first and often from the first year was one of the strengths of Class A.
Rather than training while taking only academy classes, the speed of growth was faster when you experienced combat while catching even weak monsters.
… And you can quickly get the hidden pieces hidden in the practice dungeon.
Isn’t it a national rule to hide something in a dungeon for practice in the beginning?
Of course, since it’s Hidden Peace in the early stages, the performance isn’t that great.
While thinking about how to get the hidden peace naturally.
One of the students raised his hand in case he had any questions.
Upon closer inspection, it was a poor male student who shouted, “Have you done it?” During the previous sparring session, but was pinpointed and dropped out as it was.
Surely his name was McKellen?
“I have a question for you, Professor!”
“Yes? What? Tell me, student McKellen!”
“If you go jointly with other departments, does that mean you are organizing a party? Then….”
“That’s right! That’s right! No one is good at everything alone! That’s why I need allies, and more people enter the dungeon as a party!”
At that, McKellen nodded her head as if he had heard it for granted.
“Yes. I don’t have good stamina like the knights, and I’m not good enough with healing magic to heal right away like the priests when I’m injured.”
“Yes? Yes… ? Why are you forming a party, aren’t you saying that you can wipe out low-level monsters by yourself?”
“Why did I do such a stupid thing… ?”
“There seems to be one stupid kid like that in class A every year… ?”
McKellen and Iona tilt their heads at each other.
What… It is true that the pride of class A students is usually high.
Just like Iona said, one of the party members being smug and then trolling was an event that happened with a low probability in H&A.
And the guy who always jumps out on his own and causes trouble… She was most likely a student at the Faculty of Magic.
Because of the structure of magic, wizards have no choice but to have strong confidence in themselves.
But for some reason, all of the current A class students were puzzled by Iona’s words, just like McKellen.
A wizard with no trolls… ?
The moment when I was about to tilt my head out of incongruity.
“Ah.”
I was aware of the glances around me that glanced at me.
I must have spent too much time in Dalian.
Elisha Ya is a celebrity in the magic world who is famous for her noble lineage and her talent since she was young.
So even if she loses to Elisha, everyone takes it for granted.
But am I different?
A half-mage from (or not) a mercenary who doesn’t know where he came from, who loves him every day?
Even the speed at which my magic skills grow much faster than the speed at which they get used to battle?
Putting aside the inferiority complex or anger, it would be natural for the mindset that at least you can do it all by yourself to disappear.
Should I like this or not? Seeing her with a subtle expression, Iona smiled brightly and changed the subject.
“So then? Why did you ask about organizing a party?”
“Uh… If we team up with class A students from other departments, do we have to find a teammate on our own, or does the academy decide on its own, how many party members… I was going to ask something like that.”
“Aha!”
Match!
Iona, who lightly clapped her hands as if she finally understood, nodded her head.
“If that’s the case, you should let me know! Yes! In fact, I’m doing what I was trying to tell you right now!”
Haha….”
McKellen smiled shyly at those words and lowered his hand.
“First of all, the party was randomly selected by the academy! From the 2nd year, you can formally set up your own party members, but in the 1st year, the party members will change every time so that you can team up with as many people as possible! It’s a secret who to party with! I’ll let you know on the same day!”
Having said that, Io looked around her classroom for a while, and then she looked at me and Elisha, and she smiled meaningfully once.
“Don’t be too sorry! The purpose of this practice is to experience the dungeon to the end! You’re still in the first year, so I don’t want anything too great. You should try as many different experiences as possible! … Yes, even the unfortunate incidents that are common in dungeons.”
“””…….”””
The students were very nervous at Iona’s words, which seemed to have something in common. Even Elisha swallowed her saliva, probably because of the look in her eyes from a while ago.
… But there’s really nothing wrong with that.
It’s because the professors have set appropriate traps in the dungeon, and it’s just matching party members who don’t match in terms of ability or personality.
It’s kind of like a balance patch.
Since the entrance exam is about how much monsters can be beaten, the lowest level dungeon is not that difficult even for a freshman.
That’s why we don’t let each other show our skills.
In fact, infighting in parties is common.
Even if it’s not an impromptu party, fighting in extreme situations is bound to make people sharper.
Would you like to experience something like that?
In my case, I showed quite good grades in the magic combat subject, so among the A classes in other departments, those who had defects in practice would be matched.
I don’t know who.
He nodded inwardly and raised his hand.
Everyone was nervous, but Lee Oh-na’s bloody eyes were wide open as if it was surprising to see me being alone.
“Yes? Uh… Okay! Do Yandel students have any questions? Professor Iona will answer anything!”
“Ah. That’s it.”
After taking a deep breath, he spoke. I’m a little nervous about this.
“Could you bring someone else outside the party? For example… Did you take an attendant and use him as a porter?”
“Yandel students have subspace pockets, so what kind of porters are they? Unfortunately, outsiders are not allowed! Beep!”
Iona draws an X with her arms wide crossed.
Awesome.
Also can’t
Still, you have to ask everything.
“Slaves are not people. Are you still an ‘outside person’?”
It’s a very trashy statement, but it’s acceptable in this day and age. Real slavery is handling things, not people.
Surprisingly, if someone kills another’s slave, it is not murder, but destruction of property.
At those words, Iona tilted her head to the left and right of her as if pondering for a moment, and then, as if she had made up her mind, she crossed her arms again.
“Um… Still can’t! Only then will the meaning of this dungeon practice be blurred! Somehow, I have to throw a party with the new students I met this time! It is forbidden to take even slaves!”
“There’s nothing we can do… All right.”
Cabi.
Karla Bus season 2 is over.
It’s been a while since I tasted my appetite alone and pondered over my regrets.
The people around me sent expressions of surprise and contempt mixed with what they had imagined.
Okay. That’s because arrows will shoot at Elisha anyway.
However.
“…….”
Elisha is looking at this side with suspicion.
This is a bit troublesome. I guess we need to have a conversation.
