There Are Too Many Bugs in the Academy

Episode 24

9. Hisperiif Introductory Dungeon (3)

“Those who take a break, let’s reorganize while resting. There’s no time limit.”

Captain Beltane looked around the group and said.

It was a reasonable decision.

Once you enter the boss room, you can exit freely, but you cannot take a break.

It’s just that the boss and the expedition have to fight endlessly until either one goes out.

“Whew.”

“I’m going to live now.”

At Beltane’s words, the crew put down their weapons one by one and rested.

As much as they consumed considerable stamina to reach this point, they all ate potions prepared in advance or shared food.

I also brought some potions I got from a herbalist, but… … .

‘It’s a little hard to open potions already.’

It wasn’t an urgent and dangerous situation that sucked a potion in a hurry and boosted his stats.

If you don’t really need to use it, there’s no reason to waste a potion.

By the way, is Camilla doing well?

At first glance, just looking at the composition of the team, it was enough to clear it.

“Come on, take this!”

“…?”

As I was about to sit in the corner and rest comfortably, Elka, who suddenly approached me, offered me a loaf of bread.

“The body is a little disappointing, but the fearless ambition is comparable to mine!”

“Thank you for seeing me like that…”

“Wahaha! So, this is the mark of a comrade! Let’s eat and replenish our stamina!”

Elka bursts into a smirk and pats me on the back.

It was a really tiring style than I expected.

Since they are quite good companions in the work, I thought about using them as a companion, but it was rejected.

And no matter how strong you are, you cannot be compared to that ‘Byron’.

Well, it still feels like an ardent idiot and is basically harmless unless it’s a monster, so I accepted Elka’s bread.

crumble.

Bread made from finely ground wheat.

With one bite, the soft texture spreads throughout the mouth. It’s not chewy and goes well without water.

If it had been prepared from scratch, it would have been a while since it was made, but it’s pretty tasty, right?

“How are you?”

“Delicious. Thanks, I didn’t bring any food.”

Unless it was another dungeon, Hesperipra didn’t bring any food.

I did a quick yogi before I went in just in case.

However, the body was moving and everyone was eating something, so it was a little bit hungry.

“The White Mountain Urage of the Eastern Federation.”

“how did you know?”

“I heard rumors about you in the advanced class. You didn’t stop fighting with the famous magic swordsman Bernax.”

“okay……?”

Camila did mention that my name was mentioned a few times in her senior class, but I didn’t expect it to be this widespread.

“How was it? Was it as strong as the rumored one?”

“It’s strong. In the upper 3rd grade class, you are proudly called the magic swordsman.”

Although the melee attack was steadily receiving, it was only matched by Bernax.

If he had actively used magic rather than just putting fire on his sword, it would have been more than enough.

“You’re even modest. I liked it.”

Elka smiled, showing her white teeth.

“You, come into our snowfield brothers.”

“Brothers in the snow? Are you talking about a club?”

“Yes!”

As mentioned before, there is a system called ‘club’ in the work.

It can be seen as a kind of party system, and because it is useful in many ways, it is possible to join an existing club or establish it by the player himself.

Buffs can also be easily received, and as it is mainly composed of colleagues who maintain friendly relationships, it is almost essential unless you take the concept of a solitary solo.

“It’s not yet the application period, and first-year students aren’t even allowed to participate in club activities, so how did you already join the club?”

“Yeah! So it’s still planned! But I’m confident that it will be a stronger club than any other club in the Arthur Faculty.”

Heh heh, this child.

One ambition is great.

To be sure, when selecting a club at the beginning of the game, there was a club with Elka as the main character.

Even so, I’ve never signed up for it because it’s less efficient than making it myself.

“Ummm… the members?”

“You’re the first. There hasn’t been a warrior that suits my eyes yet!”

“Are you planning on making only Arthur faculty members?”

“Of course! You don’t need an archer or a wizard!”

Now I understand why it wasn’t introduced as a good club to join on the forum.

“Thanks for the offer, but it worked.”

When she politely refused, Elka’s expression, which had been inflated with great anticipation, wrinkled.

“Why!!!”

“Unfortunately, I’m thinking of starting a club.”

ONLY warriors?

Why am I entering a party that is almost treated as a laughter bell?

What I want is a ‘balanced’ club that includes students from Arin and Ortana.

“That’s right! It’s really unfortunate…”

“There are a lot of guys who are much bigger than me, so please give it a try. If it’s Elka from the north, other kids will be anxious to come in too, right?”

He felt sorry for his dazed appearance, which was not appropriate for his large size, so he offered some comforting words.

“You really think so?”

“Of course.

“After all, you are a wonderful man!!”

Elka quickly released her expression and returned to her original form.

Then he took a few more loaves of bread from the bag and placed them on my hand.

“Eat more! It’s not a waste for true comrades!”

“Hey, how can I eat all of this… Oooh!!”

Then, it’s not like I’m throwing bread in my mouth.

“You can eat! People have to eat to fight! To fight together in the boss room, replenishment of stamina is essential!”

Was this more crazy than I thought?

* * *

wiggle wiggle.

“Puha! You bastard! You almost ran out of breath!”

“Sorry! I didn’t know there was no water.”

The guy who forcibly stuffed the bread didn’t realize the seriousness until I was about to suffocate.

It would have been a real game over if Robin hadn’t watered this brainless bastard while rummaging through his bag looking for water.

“Thank you, you saved me.”

“What are you doing with this… Thank you so much for helping me earlier.”

Robin said with a soft smile. Aidan next to him is also chuckling and smiling.

When did you two become so close?

“Come on, here.”

I return the dagger she gave me a while ago.

There was no reason to use the dagger after that, so I put it in my pocket without checking the condition.

“As expected, the skills you showed at the pier didn’t go anywhere.”

“Haha…don’t let it float too much. I’m not immune to this kind of thing.”

Manly, why are they like this today?

Still, he couldn’t control the rising corners of his lips.

“Everyone is recognizing your true worth! Stretch out your chest like a man- Whoops!”

“Hey Hmm. Stop, stop. They’re miscellaneous mobs, so let’s talk about the boss as well.”

Elka was about to join, so I shut his mouth. It’s Aidan, not me, who should get the spotlight in this episode.

As Tristone’s successor, he is the one who follows the path of a hero.

“By the way, Sanwoo-san, can’t you hear what? As if someone is calling…”

Aidan spoke with a slightly worried look. I know what he’s talking about, but I’m shivering.

“Huh? I didn’t hear anything.”

“Is that right, umm… is it an auditory hallucination?”

It’s probably Triston’s calling.

It’s faint now, but now that the boss is defeated, it will be more clearly heard.

As I know the future clearly, I could give you a lot of advice, but… … . There is no need to advertise that I am hiding something.

Besides, it’s not that difficult to get to the haven of a forgotten hero.

There is a watchman golem along the way, but it is set to be very weakened because it could not withstand the winds and waves of time.

If it was shown in the battle before, it would be enough to clear the current Aidan.

‘After all, the boss must be awake.’

Fearful of thinking like that, Beltane got up from his seat, brushing off the dirt on his robe.

“Now that we have replenished our stamina, let’s enter slowly.”

Looking around, the other members seem to have recovered a lot of their energy.

“I’m sick of dungeons. I want to get rid of them quickly and leave.”

“The boss is most likely a ‘robo of wolf wolf’. Seniors say that the more Cavewolf comes out, the more the boss in that area is wolf wolf.”

As Beltane explained, this area had almost nothing but Cave Wolf. So, it is self-evident that the boss is a robo king.

“Arthur and Arin shouldn’t make him approach us as much as possible. Come here Robo is weak against magic.”

It was a temporary position, but the way he fulfills his duties as a leader is unique. He also has charisma.

“Well then, let’s go.”

It was at that time when Beltane opened the door of the boss room with the personnel who had finished preparing.

“Wait a minute!!!”

Along with a sudden shout, a number of people from the other side shook twenty-two.

Some thought it was a monster, so they picked up their weapons, but it was none other than George Madeleine who came out of the darkness.

“Wait!! Wait! Don’t attack!”

“What are you doing here?”

“Baeksanwoo!!! Wow! I really lived!!”

As soon as he sees me, George jumps with joy. Beltane, who was watching it, asked me.

“Do you know each other?”

“We’re in the same class.”

Soon after, other students appeared one after another from George’s back. Since there were about eight people, it was almost a group.

“Why are you here. You guys are different groups.”

“That’s… there’s a bit of a problem.”

And the words that came out of George’s mouth were completely unexpected.

“Camilla is missing.”

what?

My mind went blank at the shocking news.

“Who is Camilla?”

“This is our member, the upper class of Arthur School.”

“Is the student missing? Not a dropout?”

“I must have made you fall behind! I was definitely next to you, but suddenly something dragged me and disappeared.”

A woman appeared from the space where there was obviously nothing at George’s words. It was the leader of our group who opened the entrance to the dungeon a while ago.

“What?! The student is missing??”

“It’s a surprise!”

“What, where are you from?”

Screams erupted from here and there, but she began to shove George with a serious expression, without any use of her superiors.

“The student has gone missing, where is your leader going? You’ve got to get him under control!”

“who are you!?”

“I’m the leader of the 10th group. Didn’t I tell you guys about the leader’s existence? Originally, I had to follow the group assigned to invisible for safety!”

At the appearance of unilateral scolding, George replied as if it were unfair.

“I don’t know! He’s gone too!”

“Where are you, Joe?”

“Twenty-three!”

“Groups 23, 23… You’re a student leader, not a teaching assistant? Nordin Narkis, a 3rd year Arthur Faculty…”

Nordin Narkis.

The moment I heard the name, it felt like I had been hit hard in the back of the head with a hammer.

In other words, Nordin of Iron Flower.

A collateral for the firefighting style and one of the most talented people in the world, this guy is a villain who keeps interfering with Camila’s epic quest to prevent her from succeeding the head of the family, and even kidnaps her.

‘Maybe, please… … .’

This world is the world of Paradise Academia, but it did not proceed according to the flow of the normal game.

Because I also had the tears of a hero that Aidan should have acquired.

In other words, it was a story that, without my knowledge, Camilla’s epic quest may have been progressing in a completely different direction.

“Hey, where did Camilla disappear?”

“I can’t remember exactly…”

“It’s urgent, so tell me quickly! At least a little bit!!!”

“Gee, I think it’s been a while since I came down to the second basement floor!”

“Are you sure you were drawn to something?”

“Because I even screamed. I chased after it late, but it was an empty space!”

Article 23 Leader Nordin Narkis.

Apparently, Camilla Lilly was assigned to Group 23.

And the Hisperiif introductory dungeon.

The knowledge in the game and a series of events that remain in the mind are put together like a puzzle.

If he decides to kill Camilla early for some reason.

There would be no better place to get her into crisis in Hisperiif.

Magi prison.

“Shit!!”

I started running in the opposite direction, spitting out swear words boiling from inside.
