CH 234

"Fuhahahahaha! Behold, this is my, the <Great Sorcerer>, power! You're but a weak ants in front of me, goblin! Take it, <Mega Flare>!"

"Goby!?"

Saturn-kun butchered the goblin in a one-shot while roaring with laughter.

"Go aside, it's my turn now. I don't have any intention to let you hog all the fun to yourself. <Triple Slash>!"

"Gyagyagya!?"

"Hmph! Only those who can take down their enemies in one-shot are worthy of being called the strong! Therefore, an Ax is the strongest! <Great splitting Ax>!"

"Aren't you forgetting 'Us'? It's because 'We' are helping you by attracting the attention of the enemy that you can fight without the need to worry about anything, don't forget that! Come on, you goblin bunch, bow before this Venerable, <Fight>!"

Jilong-kun split apart the goblin with the three consecutive slashes, Tom-kun overpower his opponent goblin with a single wide slash while Helck-kun uses his taunt skill to attract the remaining goblin when the situation didn't even call for it.

"Uwahh. Is Class 1 of the combat department so amazing!?"

"Stop idolizing them. They are just idiots."

None of them have so much as thought of saving their MP.

Why in the world are they using their big moves against small fries like goblins? No matter how you see, it's simply overkill.

Helck doesn't even have any need to attract the aggro but there he is, using them like they don't cost anything.

You see, the game was pretty simple, all he had to do was let Jilong-kun slash again and the battle would have been over. There was simply no need to use <Fight> skill in the end at all.

But, I see. Is this how others usually fought in this world? If it's really that, then it's not difficult to understand why they are having trouble just at Intermediate level dungeons.

No, I believe it shouldn't be so. Something like preserving their stamina is an absolute basic after all.

The crux of this matter should be that the Quartet simply doesn't know how to efficiently use their jobs yet. In the end, they have their jobs for like, only one month.

What should I do... Should I enlighten the lost souls? However they will learn them in the class either way, so I don't need to work myself out.

But. There's this thing called Class vs guild battle. It's none other than us who will have to bear the burden if classmates are weak.

As I was mentally contemplating if I should give them heads up or not, Saturn-kun says while brushing up his hairs as if he has just done something very tiring.

"Hmph, Did you see my power? I hope this may have helped you understand one or two things."

Why is it turning as if I'm the one who needs to learn from him? Kuh, Saturn-kun's face looks like a clown honestly.

Anyway, leaving the jokes aside, this has actually become a good reference for me. I have come to know that there might be more than a few rookies like them in the class.

For now, since he's asking me, let's say my impression.

"Yes, I understand that you're totally an amateur, Saturn-kun."

"Wh-Whaaattt!?"

Saturn-kun's eyes widened as if he hadn't expected I would call him an amateur and let out a hysteric shout.

No self-awareness, huh.

He's really something to not realise after so much, but oh well, this is a trait that often manifests in those who have the high damage dealing jobs. It's like a one-shot move game for them. There are so many people who quite frequently misunderstood their own level of power because of that. And if you ask them, they will say something like ‘I'm the strongest’ without batting their eyelids. Absolutely.

Haa, what needs to be done has to be done. Let's enlighten his soul a bit.

"You're using nothing but the <Mega Flare> only against the goblin, heck, you're squandering your MP as if it's candy you can replenish anytime. You could have easily taken them down with the <Flare> which is two levels lower than <Mega Flare> as I can see your INT is surprisingly high. We're already on the 8th floor but you haven't reflected on this once. If this continues to go on like this, you would be out of your MP even before reaching the deepest floor. All I can say is, that's completely stupid strategy."

"W-W-Whaat did you say!!"

"Besides, What do you even think your job is? Your place is supposed to be at rearguard, not the vanguard. Why in tarnation are you even trying to attack from vanguard position, be more aware that your job is suited to be at rearguard. Also, you're focusing too much only on taking down the enemies that you're not even following the party movements, remember, you're in a party, not solo. And how in the world can you miss your shots when you're attacking from so close? You totally need the shooting practice. That's understandable if you miss your shot from long-distance but from close-up? You simply sucks at aiming, Saturn-kun. And don't think it's over this, there is more mistakes like...一一"

I had only intended to point out a few mistakes only but once I opened my mouth, I simply couldn't stop myself. As far as I can guess, Saturn-kun is drunk in power of his job and has neglected his combat training.

I know all his mind must be filled with the thoughts like "the heck, how can training even be helpful, I will raise my level".

I appreciate that he's devoting himself to the level up but he should do the bare minimum of training at the very least. This is only beneficial to him.

Thus I hardened my heart here and sternly pointed out the part he ought to rectify. I am not doing this so that he doesn't become a burden in the class vs guild battle. Not at all.

"Ff, sniff. Sob一一"

Odd enough, Saturn-kun was silent for the whole time I was lecturing him.

When I finally cooled down and regained my focus, for some reason, Saturn-kun was kneeling and pushing his face on the ground with all his might as if he wanted to become one with it.

What's he doing? I think I just heard his sobbing voice, umm, must be my imagination.

"Fu, fufu. It's funny. It's a wonder why my feets are shivering."

"What are you, a demon? To lecture him to the point of leaving him in such a mental state."

"You're too cruel. He's pressing his face on the ground so much that even a dent is formed. Are you trying to smite his pride to complete oblivion?"

Hey-hey, why am I receiving their slanderous remarks? They hurled their gazes at me as if they were looking at something terrifying.

So strange. It's as if I have made a mistake.

Incidentally, Mona is in the middle of harvesting at the harvest spot we found just a while ago so he didn't hear anything.

"Anyway, that's all I have now for Saturn-kun. Next isー"

" " "Next...... N-Next!?" " "

I turn to face the other three who repeat after me as if they didn't understand what I mean at first but then startles, finally catching up with the meaning.

It's a good chance. We will be in the same class for at least a year, so I also want to become good friends with them.

In return, they can just leave the matter about the dungeon diving to me. I have confidence in my knowledge and I'm sure none is wiser than me when it comes to that.

"You guys also have a lot of parts that need to be amended. Be assured, I will teach you how to so listen carefully."

" " "Eek!?" " "

That day, the boys matured. Of course, the credit goes to yours truly Me.
