Chapter 59 – Anomaly

Maybe it’s because I’ve already groaned once.

Since repositioning, our party has been going smoothly.

“Lord! Send down your light! Let me punish these disgusting servants!”

Helena was still berserker, and went on a rampage.

Tear and kill

It looks like a scene from a slasher movie.

Her ferocious spirit, with her hatred and anger towards monsters, and her divine power, warm like sunlight that shines on everyone equally, are unbalanced.

However, if you focus only on killing monsters like that, you will inevitably reveal gaps.

Although there was actually one Evil Rabbit that was about to fall from a tree, targeting Helena whose eyes were halfway upside down.

“Haaaaagh!”

Squeak.

The sword swung along with the sound of angry spirits easily cut the guy in two, so there’s no need to worry anymore.

Is it still burdensome to look at the Evil Rabbit? Vincent narrows his eyes and shakes his hands….

Still, he swung his sword properly without running away.

He still seemed far from his actual skills, but where did he come to be able to fight?

Lastly I

“Vincent! There’s one more guy behind Helena!”

“I will go now!”

I made simple orders using the wide view from the rear.

“Fire, explode, devour. Fireball!”

He also used magic to destroy the places where the monsters were gathered.

“I didn’t go berserk anywhere!”

“Keeeee!!”

I also stabbed a dagger into the belly of some monsters that were trying to target me directly while avoiding Helena and Vincent.

… Strangely, isn’t there a lot for me to do?

Anyway, as each of us focused on what we could do in that way, surprisingly, the party went on and on.

Thanks, is this correct in the first place? A smile appeared on Vincent and Helena’s lips as they fought.

Haha! At first, I was very worried about what would happen… Isn’t it a better party than you think!”

“Isn’t it all thanks to Brother Yandel who turned our weaknesses into strengths?”

“… It was something anyone could think of. Please don’t paint too much, Priest Helena.”

“Yes. Anyone can think of it. However, it is purely the brother’s ability to make this work somehow, so I hope you will accept our praise.”

Haha! Priest Helena is right! You deserve it!”

No… Is this only the lowest level dungeon?

If you have time, a class A student alone can grind everything except the boss?

Except, of course, for Vincent, who groaned in real life.

This guy is a real stumbling block until he goes through the awakening event.

Instead, it’s a really good character if you just awaken… To be honest, since I’m a male character, I didn’t raise him very often.

There are a lot of pretty and good girls out there, but I don’t dare choose a male one… ?

Anyway, since the two of them are so excited, I feel sorry for myself as I was wondering how to secretly get the hidden piece.

For that reason, he smiled awkwardly and changed the subject.

“It’s done. Now I’ll pluck the horns.”

“You are ashamed.”

“You are ashamed.”

Vincent and Helena giggled and began collecting the horns, a by-product of the Evil Rabbit.

Because there were quite a lot of Evil Rabbits I faced this time, I was immersed in the capture work for a while.

Suddenly, Helena tilted her head and said,

“Isn’t that a bit strange? Even though Evil Rabbits are monsters that live in packs, it seems like there are too many of them all of a sudden… This is almost the same as stepping on a manned trap.”

“What? Maybe you’re near the rabbit hole. Scores are rolling in for us, so shouldn’t we be happyhaha!”

Vincent laughs heartily at the subject of working with his eyes wide open because he hasn’t adjusted to the monster corpse yet.

Well, it’s not that I don’t understand.

Even after becoming Class A… No, because it’s Class A, the score is even more important.

The academy divides classes according to grades, and the treatment varies greatly depending on the class.

It can also be said to be a kind of bait to stimulate students’ desire for improvement.

There is no penalty for being in the lower class, but isn’t it human psychology that is disgusting when you see that the upper class is receiving preferential treatment?

The harder you train, the stronger you become.

But what should the upper class A class use as bait?

Simple. Generally, you can raise a treasure that cannot be obtained.

In class A, grades are calculated once a semester to calculate points.

And with these points, you can buy magic tools, elixirs, or secret items made by the professors at the academy.

Oh, of course you can just exchange it for money.

This is a pretty good exchange rate, so students with the poverty attribute preferentially purchase a certain amount of money as points.

Anyway, Vincent must be aiming for the system called the achievement shop among users.

However, Helena, who had a light desire for material things like a priestly class, was still anxious.

Having said that, he decided to ease Helena’s worries a little.

“As Priest Helena said, it is true that the number of evil rabbits suddenly increased. There’s a large rock nearby, so let’s look around from there. If something goes wrong, I pull myself out right away.”

“Ah! It’s good! Then let’s do it!”

Helena smiled shyly as if she was a little relieved. It’s an implausible gap that until only five minutes ago, she was the one dismantling monsters with her bare hands.

In fact, there is a reason why there are so many monsters in this area.

Hidden peace on the rock I pointed to just a moment ago… It was because he was attracted to the aura of the whitened magic herb.

The magical herb, which is already rich in magical power, is exposed to excessive magical power and mutates to become the bleached magical herb.

It’s not comparable to a well-made elixir, but Yeongcho High School can achieve great growth in the beginning.

If there is magic, isn’t it a necessary stat for me as a wizard?

If there’s one thing that’s unfortunate, it’s that, unlike monsters and ordinary resources in regenerative dungeons, obviously special items like bleached magical plants don’t reappear.

It is natural to prevent infinite farming of valuable items only in games, but this is the reality.

Maybe there’s a reason it’s not regenerating. I don’t know what it is.

With that thought in mind, I put the last horn in my inventory before I started walking again.

Fortunately, there was no encounter with a monster in the meantime.

***

“Her… That’s why I can’t find it.”

On top of the rock he climbed alone, arguing about why he was trying to detect something.

There was a small crack in the corner, the size of a hand, and the pure white grass that grew from the inside was the bleached magic plant.

Someone quickly ripped it apart and put it in the inventory.

At the same time, a clear notification sound rings.

Tring!

【I found the hidden treasure in the dungeon!】

【Achievements achieved! Acquire the new title ‘Clumsy Treasure Hunter’!]

======================

【Title: Clumsy Treasure Hunter】

You have discovered the existence of hidden treasure in the dungeon.

These range from naturally occurring to powerful relics that were sealed away with monsters over 300 years ago.

If you can get one, it will definitely help you on your journey.

But be careful.

You are not the only one who knows this secret.

– Added 1% positive effect to all actions in the dungeon.

– Increases the chance of being attacked by adventurers in a dungeon by 3%.

======================

It is a title that you naturally get when you get a hidden piece. If you keep collecting hidden pieces, the effect will be strengthened.

That adventurer’s raid is an event that only occurs when you go around open external dungeons.

At least it’s not something to worry about right now, it’s virtually no risk.

Just over a month later, the title of Talented Freshman has run out, so I’ll have to change it.

Anyway, what should I do with this bleached magic plant?

Eating it right away will have a good effect, but… It takes time to make the mana of the whitened magic herb mine, so I can’t eat it right now anyway.

Above all, I have a pay.

If you ask me to make this into an elixir, will you make it?

Even if it is not a miracle drug, it is beneficial even if it can be refined to be easily absorbed.

I came down from the rock after knocking on my stomach a couple of times.

Ah, I haven’t forgotten about the detection I used as an excuse.

“Are you here? What was wrong?”

“Okay. Nothing particularly stood out. It’s not accurate because I haven’t used the proper detection magic yet… I guess it’s simply because this is a good environment for evil rabbits to live in?”

“Ugh. I guess I was worrying for nothing. Shall we go hunting a little more here?”

“That’s not too bad….”

The hidden piece was also retrieved, so the moment I was about to nod my head in moderation.

Kwaaaaang-!!

A roar from far away.

Surely the practice isn’t already over?

When we all turned our heads to the direction where the sound came from, there was a large explosion that engulfed the air.

Magic, as if someone was urgently trying to announce their location.

Even this didn’t end with one.

Perong! Pew! Pop!

As long as this is a training dungeon, I was dazed by the feast of rescue signals that I thought I would never see.

What? What’s going on?

I… I am unaware of the existence of such an event.
