Vol. 5 - Chapter 257 - The name of their guild is, ‹Best of the Best, The Great Star›!

"I don't think I have ever made you guys go through torturous training? Aren't you guys overthinking?"

"D-Damn you...! Are you saying you forget how hard you went on me in training or Dungeon exploration!?"

"Are you trying to play dumb after saying that punishment would await us if we didn't go through the training or follow your orders!?"

I had zero inkling of what they were even talking about, so I tried to ask back just in case, but instead, it made Tom-kun and Helck-kun, who were standing behind Saturn-kun, furious.

However, they didn't raise their voice more than necessary. Just what would you expect from Class 1 students. They are all role models.

After all, it would only cause other nuisances if they yelled here.

But I see. I sure did say that, but that was just to raise their spirits, because they completely lacked coordination despite being in a combat party. What's more, when the number of prey was less than the number of party members, they would instead scramble to snatch the kill.

The sole member who was conscious of his role was Helck-kun, the tank; however, the rest of the three attackers were completely hopeless. Their minds were completely filled with the crap of taking down the opponent by only using powerful skills.

However, I have rectified it properly. (Isn't that the cause?)

Of course, the skills and magic of mighty classes like ‘Great Sorcerer’, ‘Sword Saint’ and ‘Barbarian’ were exceedingly strong because they were high-ranking jobs.

Unlocking powerful spells like <Mega Flare> in the second order tree was a sight reserved for high-ranking jobs. As a result, they became overly reliant on their jobs.

What I want to say is that they would be like the paper tigers of the future if they continue like this.I could easily imagine the scenario of them being forced to repatriate after being completely overwhelmed by their opponent.

I, who had read and learned this while training my guild members, couldn't let it happen in my wake, so I also taught them. You know, the correct role.

On this note, the punishment I was speaking was to just make them work harder.even worth. At most, it would have been 20 squats or 30 push-ups. However, if they're claiming that this punishment was torture, I'm not sure what to call Eden, who frequently went through a lot of battle while following the boss farming manual.

Jilong-kun, whose face twitched when I cocked my head in puzzlement, says this.

"Fufu, you're no doubt a strong adversary. I accept that you have................ exceptional abilities among all students in the class.”

"You sure look like you don't want to accept this."

"But however strong you may be, don't think you can lord over us! We will protect our class peace! And this guild battle challenge would bear witness to our resolve! No matter how high your level is, it won't matter in the guild battle. We will show you our brilliance in this guild battle!"

Umm, I trained you guys precisely because you were dumb-dumb and not excellent...

Rather, can you please stop saying it as if I have the whole class under my thumb, for god's sake? I absolutely don't remember being a dictator.

I'm not, right? I was so dumbfounded by their claims that I was at a loss for words, but the other three behind Jilong-kun continued as if it had ignited their passion.

It seems that is the name of their guild.

"Fufu, best of the best. It sure has a nice ring to it."

"We all have exceptional high-ranking jobs with the ‘great’1 attached to them. There's no way we could leave it out of the guild name."

"We're the glorious upcoming new star of this Labyrinth Academy, and there's no doubt our name will rumble in the world."

I didn't ask, but they suddenly began to give an explanation about their guild name.

I was surprised to see they had actually created a guild without my knowledge. This is the new page of my classmate's life! I passed on my heartfelt words to them.

"Amazing! Congratulations on forming your own guild! What the, man, you should have told me this good news first; I would have congratulated you more formally."

"Fufu, thank you very much... I mean I don't mean that, we can now apply for guild battles without any worry."

"We can only choose the mock guild battle in the category since the guild is still F-ranked, but that's enough to decide on the victor. We can finally free ourselves."

"Now is the time you can take it easy, but when we get serious, no one can stand before us 一一even if the opponent is ‹Brave›. Our freedom is just around the corner."

For some reason, my classmates have already decided they will be the victor. I was intrigued by their source of confidence, so I tried to probe them a bit.

"Speaking of, where's your fifth member?"

"Fufu, they're raising their level in the dungeon at present."

Diligent! They should have also gone to the dungeon, though.

"So Zephyr, I believe this explains everything! The time is on the weekend, after classes一一"

"Ah, it would be impossible for me on Friday with my duty as a provisional lecturer. Can you shift it to Thursday?"

"............. The time is Thursday, after classes are over... Wait, I think I just heard something strange now. Did you just say ‘provisional lecturer’?”

Leaving that aside, our timing clashed a bit.

In the end, we applied for a mock guild battle between ‹Eden› and Saturn-kun's guild, ‹Best of the Best, the Great Star›, on this Thursday.

Crap, it's hard to control my excitement. Even if it's a mock battle, it's a guild battle!

Ah, my heart is bouncing up and down.
