Chapter 95 – 095 Amusement Park (1)
*
“Still, I’m glad I caught it in the morning.”
“What is this… Annoying.”
“But you can go right away when it’s over. It’s Minji~”
“Haa.. I’m really annoyed.. Let’s go get ready Daeun-ah..”
“Ah Okay! Aren’t Siwoo and Joowon ready?”
“Huh? I have to do it now.”
“I’ll do it with us.”
Minji, who had worked hard to come out to the amusement park, got annoyed and went to wear equipment with Da-eun.
Maybe it was because she was dressed up more than usual, but she still couldn’t take her eyes off of Minji and Daeun. Not to mention Kang Joo-won.
“What are you doing, let’s go.”
“Ah, I’ve lost my mind for a while. Sorry.”
Maybe it was because it was an activity instead of class, so I didn’t let them rest.
The artificial dungeon exploration was included in the group of 4 that was decided last time. It was not inside the academy, but it seemed to have borrowed facilities managed by other guilds on a large scale.
There was an amusement park next to it, so I could play right away after training. Although the scale of the training ground was large, it was not large enough to handle all first graders.
So it was a situation where the morning and afternoon teams were divided. The afternoon team plays at the amusement park in the morning and enters the artificial dungeon in the afternoon, and we are the morning team, so we have to enter the artificial dungeon now.
At least, it seemed like I could enjoy the amusement park properly because my turn was ahead. Seo-ah looked very dissatisfied because she was on a different team than us.
He looked sorry for something, but he couldn’t help the team being different.
Wearing appropriate gear, Kang Joo-won and the two of them stood and waited for Min-ji and Da-eun. Since both of them are female, it seems like they took longer to prepare than we did.
Kang Joo-won spoke to me as if the waiting time was boring.
“I came without thinking, I didn’t know it would be like this.”
“I know.”
Everyone came here thinking they were coming to play, but it was a situation where they were suddenly informed that they were training, so everyone looked bad, but no one complained.
“It’s an important training, though.”
The next evaluation is a group of 4 Dungeon Time Attack. It’s annoying because it’s an opportunity to match or practice in advance, but no one said they couldn’t do it.
Artificial dungeons were not easily obtainable, and there were few opportunities to experience them without an opportunity like this. Everyone entered the academy to become a hunter, so no one would turn down the opportunity to practice in advance.
Looking out of the waiting room, there were girls gathered to see the two of us. As I awakened my incubus characteristics, I felt more girls flocking to me.
“Aren’t they ready for training?”
“Haha.. I can’t help it.”
Kang Joo-won muttered with a friendly smile as if he was familiar with this situation. Well, I got used to it too. While holding her sword properly and swinging it, she saw a person cutting through the crowd and approaching her.
“Sorry~ Were we a little late? Lol..”
Da-eun smiled warmly and scratched her head. She appeared wearing a suit in earnest this time, probably because she had experience wearing a battle suit with Minji before.
Due to the nature of her battle suit that clings to her partner, her chest area shrunk a little, but it wasn’t bad because her body was exposed.
“… “
Kang Joo-won was staring at Da-eun in silence. After that, Minji also appeared wearing a suit and combat gloves. Da-eun definitely has bigger breasts, but in other parts, Min-ji looked better.
“Why are they gathered here like this?”
Minji muttered with an angry expression, so I approached her and looked her in the eyes and talked to her. Her single distance thrust her face into her expression.
“Minji, are you in a bad mood today?”
“It’s not like that…”
It feels like Minji can’t make eye contact with her since he developed the incubus trait. Da-eun is like that, too, and it seems she has a unique atmosphere.
“Huh?”
“Poem..Noisy..”
When she turned her head, Kang Joo-won was clenching her fists. Minji is already my girl, but I don’t know what you’re trying to do when you see it.
“Are you ready for the next 14th team?”
“Yes!!”
*
As she entered the gate, she felt slightly dizzy. After she stumbled for a moment, Min-ji came running straight to her.
“As expected, I can’t get used to this feeling.”
“Isn’t it because you were hurt then?”
Da-eun came behind Min-ji, who looked at my condition with a worried expression.
“By the way, Siwoo… Aren’t you overdoing it?”
The stats are still reduced due to the side effects of overclocking. It’s just that my body is a bit heavy, not so much that I can’t move. Aren’t the two of them overreaching?
‘It’s not bad though.’
“I’m fine, you know I’m strong.”
“What’s strong is what’s strong, fool, on the subject of getting hurt all the time.”
“I’m sorry, let’s clear the dungeon first.”
“You’re behind me, don’t get hurt in front of me, idiot..”
“Yeah, Siwoo is behind us, we’ll take care of everything!”
“… “
Looking at Kang Joo-won’s expression, I naturally smiled. I wonder if a person the size of Kang Ju-won has ever been treated like this since she was born. She seemed to get angry somehow, but she didn’t say anything special.
If Hong Ryu-seok were here, he would have shouted and ran at it, but I don’t know if he’s doing well.
‘The taste was really the best.’
“It’s Minji, Daeun. Since we can’t stay here forever, shall we move inside?”
“Ah, yes! Hehe, let’s go, Joo Won.”
“Okay, let’s get out of here quickly.”
It was blocked off on all sides by walls of stone, and on one side there was a door that seemed to lead to another room.
In the humid, dark atmosphere of the huge room, it seemed that we would have to rely on the softly burning torches to move forward.
“Has anyone brought a light?”
“I didn’t bring…”
“Neither do I..”
No one seemed to be properly prepared, perhaps because it was a dungeon that had been delivered to them unexpectedly.
Since how to prepare in a situation where there is no information is also included in the evaluation, it seems that it was planned with the intention of informing the importance of preparation.
‘But I’m different.’
[ Creation ]
Upon activating the creation skill, a lamp appeared in the inventory to illuminate the dark interior. I pretended to take it out of my bag and took out a light bulb.
“I brought it.”
“Wow~ Siwoo is thoroughly prepared~”
“Well, because Siwoo Kim is good at preparing..”
So our party started walking towards the inside of the dungeon. When I turned on the lights, I could see clearly, so I felt like the level of difficulty had gone down.
“I’ll take the lead.”
Kang Joo-won voluntarily stood at the forefront, perhaps feeling a sense of crisis because of me. It seems like he wants to show off his cool side.
In a party, the avant-garde was as important as the leader. Because he is at the forefront, he is the first to face all dangers.
It could be said that it was a very important position because the risk level varied depending on whether or not a hidden trap or ambush monster was found first.
“Then I’ll go back.”
“Minji, I’m okay with the rear by myself.”
“You’re not feeling well, but be quiet, you idiot.”
Da-eun, who has poor close-range combat ability, should be protected, but on the contrary, I was in a position to be protected. I stood in a position where I could adequately protect Da-eun and started moving forward.
“Be careful because there’s a trap ahead of you. I think it’s the way it works when you step on it.”
“Thank you, Joo Won~”
“I checked.”
The lights were bright, so there was no great difficulty in spotting the trap.
There was no space for an ambush inside the room, so I couldn’t see a place where the monster could be ambushing.
There are no monsters and it is easy to find traps, so Kang Ju-won seems to have gained confidence. I started to run through the room at a faster pace.
It’s not a bad thing to go fast because it’s time-attacked even during the evaluation, but it was a bit difficult for Da-eun to follow.
It is also the role of the leader to point out these areas.
“Joo Won-ah. Da-eun seems to be having a hard time. I think it would be better to slow down a bit.”
“Ah.. No~ I’m really fine!”
“..Sorry, I’ll be careful from now on, Daeun-ah, was it difficult?”
“No… I’m really fine…”
Except for Daeun, all of them are melee combatants, so they have good stamina. He bowed his head with an apologetic expression, perhaps thinking he had become a burden.
I tapped the sullen Dae-eun on the shoulder.
“Dae-eun, it’s only natural that the party is tailored to each other.”
“Yes..”
“If we were alone, we would struggle against flying monsters, wouldn’t we?”
When I told Dae-eun that it was okay with appropriate words, his face slightly blushed.
[Lee Da-eun’s favorability has increased. ]
The back of the head hurts a little, but this is a very important part when moving as a party unit.
If Da-eun uses up all her stamina just because she is forced to fit us, it’s hard to play her role when she really needs her.
Perhaps because of such a happening, Kang Joo-won moved while adjusting the speed on his own. In the room that continued in a straight line, there was finally a fork in the road.
A dungeon seems to be a dungeon. There’s no point in practicing honestly if you keep going in a straight line.
“Which way shall we go?”
Kang Joo-won, who was in the front, asked a question behind him.
“Kim Si-woo, you are the leader, so you decide.”
“Yeah.. I think it’s right for Siwoo to decide this.”
When the two answered, Kang Joo-won looked at my face without saying a word.
“When the fork in the road comes, let’s start from the left, or you can go back.”
“Okay.”
I was moving while roughly remembering the inside of the dungeon in my head. The size of the dungeon was larger than expected.
I wanted to finish it quickly and play at the amusement park, but it seems that the training was properly prepared.
“Uh..”
The right foot of Da-eun, who was following her, sank to the floor.
“Kyaaaaagh!”
An arrow flew towards Da-eun, and I immediately raised my sword and struck it.
“Aren’t you hurt?”
“Uh.. Yes Siwoo, thank you..”
“Hey Kang Joo-won! Aren’t you checking it straight?”
When Da-eun almost got hurt, Min-ji shouted at Kang Joo-won, probably getting angry.
“Mi..Sorry..”
“Minji, you might miss it, so don’t be too angry.”
“Yeah.. I’m not hurt and I’m fine~ So don’t be like that.”
“Haa.. I’m sorry I got angry too..”
“No, I’ll focus.”
Kang Joo-won, you bastard, only lost his face. Looking at his crumpled expression, he almost smiled naturally, but he held it in as best he could. As they continued to advance, a flying monster appeared on the ceiling.
“I’ll take care of it!”
Da-eun took the lead with a confident expression.
