Shadow King Chronicles: Building a Kingdom From Behind the Scenes
Chapter 43: Tragedy in the Dungeon (part 1)
"Eh, Clifford intended to harm me during the tournament?" that's what I heard from one of the VIESTA agents at the Academy.
This is all the more interesting. doesn't he have a trump card.Maybe it's a pill? or a forbidden magic book? well, most likely the first one. The forbidden magic book was now stored in the basement of the temple of the 12 holy Goddesses.Even a king class would be very difficult to touch it.
hmmm if I can I want to get in the way, but follow the flow of the game also sounds fun.ah just like that! I wonder, what will she wear?
alright, I still have three weeks to prepare for the tournament.I have already registered once the student council has visited our class.
now, I was in class and listening to the discussion about the Dungeon. The teacher of this class was the head of the central guild located from Venz. he used to be an adventurer who had been in the field for over 30 years.
when he retired from his adventurer job, the Guild decided to elevate him to the head of the Central Guild.well, Guilds tended to implement meritocracy in their work systems.
the more you contribute, the more you get. Well, more or less like that. You know the rest right. That's why adventurer Guilds become trustworthy places and associates. it is not without disgrace, but at least, it is one of the best institutions in the kingdom.
"Alright, all my explanations about the Dungeon. Next week, we'll go to the dungeon that is in the underground of the academy."
the whole class cheered. eh, to the Dungeon? isn't it too soon for first year students?
"Ah, Mr. Starfall, you seem to be a bit bothered by that. Do you have any questions?"
ehhh I got caught. Well, no problem. anyway sensei is not a bad person.
"I'm sorry sensei, but isn't it too soon for us to get into the dungeon? ah, it's not that I doubt sensei or accuse sensei of the no-no. but I think the power we have is not enough to enter the dungeon now."
"SAD, IT'S YOU WHO'S A WEAK FOOL!" uh I even got a reply from one of the five best students in class S, Gilbert Storm, the second son of Duke Storm's rightful wife.
well sorry if I was weak, but with your current strength, you would just be a useless carcass inside a dungeon tofu!
Of course I didn't say that. Remember, we can't look for enemies!
"Hahaha. interesting Starfall.why do you think that way?"
I shrugged, "well, during my stay in the Randall territory, I often chatted with adventurers.of course one of them was about Dungeons.
they said that the strong mana concentration within the Dungeon caused the monsters to undergo evolution to survive, so usually their levels were at semi-grade two to grade one. even that could not compare to the monsters outside the Dungeon."
Sensei seemed satisfied with my answer. "well your answer is accurate Starfall. It is true that basically your strength is not enough to enter the dungeon.
but take it easy, the dungeon we entered has been cleaned up periodically by adventurers from the guild.so you don't have to worry."
ohh, it turns out so. naturally, this is an academy.if the dungeon is not routinely cleaned, monsters will definitely come out of there and endanger the students.
"well sensei, I have no complaints." sensei nodded.well, then the class is over!
"Hey Issac, let's go to the cafeteria. I'm hungry!" I don't know why Anna suddenly appeared behind me. Well, this kid.
"right, it's lunchtime. Let's go together. It looks like James and Evelyn have other activities so they can't accompany me."
"Who are they?" oh Anna was curious about them.
"They were my first friends in the academy.they were from the Sera lhoo region."
"Ehhh it was? can you introduce them to me?"
"why not? next time I'll introduce you."
anna's face was bright, "Thank you Issac!" he put his body on my arm! hey, there's something soft in there!
well our friendship is getting closer.especially when I say that I know his grandfather because he is my teacher.he is even more happy.good, so I can enjoy the charm of his beautiful self!
"Nee Issac, I'm curious. It seems that you often hold back when the practice of magic takes place or when in class as usual. is there a problem?"
ohh he knows that I'm holding back? it's just amazing!
"Well, it doesn't matter, does it? it'll be a little problematic if I show off in class."
"Eh really?"
"let's just say I'm hiding one or two secrets that I can't unravel in front of you."
Anna again puffed her cheeks. "hmmmph, Cheek!"
hearing that answer I couldn't help but laugh.Geez this girl.she's so funny! hahh it's nice if life can go on like this.
We continued our lunch until the next lesson came.
****
Meanwhile, at the headquarters of the noble children's association....
"Yohh, next Sunday, I'll go to the dungeon that's underground in the academy.Do you have anything to have fun with?"
the one who spoke was Gilbert Storm.he had a kind of mental disorder where he would only be satisfied if he played with other people's lives.
while being spoken to, of course, Gustave.
"huhhuh of course I have a stupid fool!"
Gustave took out a blackish-red liquid.it was a monster angler.similar to the one used by Robert to harm the princess.
"Ohhh, is this it? that's incredible!!" Gilbert yelled happily, with this he could satisfy his desire continuously.
of course while getting rid of Issac.one oar, two-three islands were surpassed. he laughed out loud in the space. as if his plan would go perfectly.
