CH 276

Man, I gotta say being a provisional lecturer was much more amazing than I thought.

I felt like I had succeeded in my position as lecturer when everyone was taking my classes seriously. Quite a lot of girls had asked me questions after the class was over. Everyone had a serious expression.

Well, I felt like I ended up giving them a lot of advice contrary to what I had decided on though. I really have no excuse. I was over the moon at the sweet talking of girls.

The important part was that students who were taking ‹Training Manual› classes were all low level.

Even the highest level among girls, who were from the same class as mine, was 18 so they still have a long way to go.

I was really glad to teach them the ‹Training Manual› before it was too late.

Everyone was filled with motivation, and fired up in anticipation for their dungeon challenge tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. I'm really looking forward to what kind of growth they will have when we will meet again next week.

I have more or less filled them with the viewpoint behind ‹Training Manual›, and what's left was to solve their queries from the next class I guess. I'm sure they would be loaded with questions to ask.

Man, it took me back to the time I had a heated discussion with the ‹Dungeon Activity› player on capture point.

I'm getting more and more excited for next week!

I called today's job over after discussing with Celestine about the point to be reflected, improved, the schedule for the classes for next week and beyond and the questions that were left behind.

"That's all for today, great work, Celestine. Well, it was about tomorrow..."

"Right, I have them prepared."

"There's nothing you aren't ready for huh, Celestine."

Celestine took out several ‹Flute› from the bag before I could even say anything while smiling.

Indeed, I was the one assigned to take them on for repairs.

Our schedule for this weekend was to advance in ‹Dean Quest› we previously discussed. The material of ‹Electric Bear-cum-Squirrel› especially was the pressing issue on our hands, as its deadline was this Sunday.

I so much had wanted to dive into the dungeon even on weekdays but there was lots of preparation to do and not to say intermediate dungeons were so deep that it would have been too late for us to dive into the dungeon after classes and then return back on time.

It wasn't impossible per se but there wasn't any need to beat ourselves over it.

So far, the two days of dungeon division on weekends would be enough for us to complete the quest according to my speculation.

And that's where these flutes will come into play. Since the quest was to collect materials of a rare boss.

However there was a twist, and that was the huge amount of repair cost since I had used them in large numbers during my battles against ‹Emperor Goblin› and so I couldn't get them repaired.

My plan was to repair them with my personal money since I was the only one who had used them but as things stood, it wasn't possible to sell ‹Emperor Goblin› materials in a short time and it was absolutely impossible to repair them with the money I had available. Just my luck.

The situation led me to consult with Celestine and rely on him to repair them.

He subtracted from the assessed value of ‹Emperor Goblin› materials and got them repaired. He really saved my wool there.

And with our discussion with Dean, I also got him to lend 2 flutes as an advance reward.

I confirmed the condition of all 8 ‹Flute› and got entranced by them.

I marveled at the dreamy spectacle of 8 flutes on my hands, the same flutes used to call for a rare boss!

It should be... I felt like calling this scene ‹2-Beauty-4›.

I looked at them again, and got entranced by them again. Just amazing!

"Zephyr-sama, if you take the remaining please."

"A, Ah. cough thank you."

I quickly put the flutes on my bag, covering the fact that I was completely entranced by them.

It was completely a force majeure that I accidentally caressed the bag.

Speaking of it, the appraised value of ‹Emperor Goblin› materials was 18 million, and after subtracting 6 million Mir for the flute repair, It left me with 12 million Mir in my hand.

"Here's the amount left behind after paying for the flute repair. Your smartphone please."

"Yes, thank you."

I held out my smartphone in front of Celestine's. ‹Ting› the money transfer was complete with the chime.

Even so, only 18 million huh......

I defeated it 20 times, so that mean appraised value of one set was 900,000 Mir. I had expected the price to be double of it when I initially collected ‹Emperor Goblin› material, was it the effect of deflation? I think I may have supplied too much material. Uh-huh, I bet I will have another earful from Marie-senpai.

In this way, my first day as provisional lecturer was completed and we parted our ways as I thought about the situation.

The following day. It was Saturday.

I headed to the guild room brimming with excitement right from the morning.

"Heyo everyone! It's another lovely morning!"

I entered the guild room while cheerfully greeting everyone as I seethed in anticipation and excitement at our soon to intermediate dungeon dive.

"Good morning, Zephyr! Aren't you quite pep up today!"

It seemed Lana also sensed my excitement.

"Morning."

"Good morning, Zephyr."

"A very good morning, Zephyr-dono."

Karua, Rika and Ester waved their hands and gave their greetings in respective order.

I'm as refreshed as riding the wind today.

For now there were only four members in the guild room, rest seemed to have yet to come.

"Pardon me for arriving late. A good morning to you, everyone. 一一Ah, Zephyr-san. Do you have some time to give? I want to talk about something."

Just as I was thinking about the rest of the members, Rina took her entry after me.

She entered the room while greeting everyone and then as soon as she spotted me, a smile blossomed on her face like a flower receiving sunshine as she quickly made her way to me.

Rather than saying elegant, she was courteous in her speech like a well-groomed young lady she was.

Good grief, I told her to take it easy. Well, such was the nature of this young lady.

"Alright."

"Thank you very much. Actually一一"

However I felt a sharp gaze directed at me as soon as Rina got closer to me.

"Hey, Rika, Karua. Don't you think Zephyr looks a bit smitten?"

"We, well. He's not, might be."

"A bit?"

"Is that so? I kind of feel like he's making a face asking to be punched."

"Err, Lana-sama, please calm down... And a Princess shouldn't use such words."

I'm being watched. Why was I feeling everyone's gazes on me? Just why? Even though I should be currently at my “Refreshing-self”.

This situation continued on until everyone had gathered as I shed cold sweat under strange gazes.
