Vol. 6 - Chapter 320 - A premonition of turmoil before the reopening of the Academy!

“Starting today, Classes will resume as usual, huh. I feel both happy, and sad.”

“Fufu, well you were so active for the whole dungeon week, Zephyr-kun.”

Monday. Dungeon week had come to an end.Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)

Hannah came to my room like usual with her handmade cooking. We had breakfast together and left my room for our classes.

Honestly, I was worried that it might be consuming too much of her time, but—

“Don’t sweat it. I am with Zephyr-kun because I want to.”

So she said, I bowed my head in gratitude.

She has already perfected her way to my stomach. The breakfast she makes is always so delicious that I can eat it anytime.

As we walked along the route for our classes, I felt many gazes directing at us once again.

However, being stared upon has been turning into a part of my everyday’s life that I am no longer bothered by them now. Human’s ability to adapt can be scary.

However, while it was always the girl's stares that were overwhelming, I have been lately feeling boy’s gazes too staring at me which made me a bit curious. Though, it’s just as bit, so not like I mind it.

“I’m thinking of putting a hold on the intermediate dungeon for a while from today. It’s a bit of a pity. Ah, though I do find classes at the academy interesting.”

“I know how much you love the dungeons, Zephyr-kun. I can understand why you feel a bit disappointed. I also feel slightly reluctant. They’re really great.”

“Well, that’s how intense dungeon week was, no? Do you also have fun, Hannah?”

“Of course. Especially Extra-Dungeon, that was marvelous~. I was so startled when I checked the value of high-grade ingredients we collected after returning back. I need to practice cooking more. Besides—”

Eh, She is going to improve her already impressive cooking skills? I am already a slave to her cooking, anymore and I probably will not be able to escape later too... Though, It’s not like I have any intention to escape as of now.

However, I’m glad that she also enjoyed this dungeon week. Hannah, as she spoke how much she enjoyed the dungeon, looked so bright. I can feel, indeed, she enjoyed them really very much.

Looking back, I also had a blast in this dungeon week.

It’s really sad that it came to an end. Next one is one month later—, no, three weeks later. I don't know if I should say if it’s too long, or too short.

For freshmen too, it was a valuable week. Setting up ‘Skill-Tactics-Dungeon’, It was a great opportunity for the freshman to pull a gap between their rivals, so dungeons were quite lively last week.

After all, if they procrastinate at this time, they should be ready to become the low man on the totem pole. Students who understand the importance of this valuable time must have made efforts in their endeavor in the dungeon.

I also encountered my classmates, all of them were doing their best. ......Hmm? I think I am forgetting something...... err, what was it?

Well, whatever.

Our guild had equally worked hard to level up everyone during this dungeon week. Though, along with that, quite a lot of issues and points that need to be addressed have emerged. Particularly, the Equipment-related matter.

Princess job members are still faring better with their beginner’s equipment, but there really isn't enough equipment for Karua, Pamela, Shizu, Hannah etc.

He was a familiar face. Saturn.

“Err? What are you doing?”

I shifted my gaze to look at 20 around boys while questioning Saturn.

How should I say, they looked to be a pointlessly powerful group.

All of them are sporting bloodshot eyes. And, somehow, their muscles are......

Just as I was thinking that, Saturn suddenly snapped wide his eyes and hollered.

“Don’t play dumb, Zephyr! How dare you push us to those contamined-with-muscles-till-their-mind gang, and I bet you must have forgotten about all this! Look what has become of other three!”

Saturn-kun stepped aside to give space to the three familiar looking faces standing behind him.

“Fufu, Hi, Zephyr. Which muscle are you going to torment this time?”

“I would like to suggest bicep brachii muscles. I can feel my muscles expanding and growing. Oops, I should have said Today ‘too’ huh.”

“I will be troubled if you forget this venerable’s muscles too. My abs are taking more and more beautiful shapes lately. Wanna have a look?”

“No thanks, but......”

They were Jilong, Tom, and Helck — who for some reason invited me to see his abs — in order.

I obviously turned down his offer.

I looked at Saturn without hiding my perplexment. Saturn spoke as his body shuddered involuntarily.

“These guys have completely changed! They were all upright till last week.”

“Upright......”

It was then I remembered. I asked Machos to take care of them last week since I hadn’t wanted my beautiful dungeon week to be interrupted.

It has been bugging me for quite some time that I’m forgetting something, and it turns out that’s what I forgot, huh.

Wait, is that me the cause of their transformation? Should be not, it’s probably my imagination I guess. I don't know the full story yet.

As my mind was contemplating this, Saturn showed a shuddering look once again.

“it’s not just that! I, I heard about that, Zephyr, You bastard! Y, You even poached M-Misato from our guild ‹Best of the Best, the Great Star›! Misato left our guild three days ago!”

Ah, She did say that she will leave their guild at the end of the month. So she withdrew safely huh.

Though, I don’t see where it’s my problem. I have indeed invited her out to our guild ‹Eden›, but I didn’t poach her from their guild. That said, I must scout Misato later!

“I, I will not forget you! But even you couldn’t have imagined your cowardly move will become a springboard for us and drive us to forge an even stronger bond! Look, To overthrow Brave! Everyone gathered here are the people who have sworn to overthrow the Brave for their respective I-don’t-know-what-it-is goal! Right here and now, I challenge Eden for the guild battle, mode ‹Duel Battle›! The battlefield is ‹Hexagram Field›, and it will be ‹15 Members› battle!”

Saturn, who seemed to have slightly grown in the last few days, loudly announced an ‹All-Out› guild battle challenge against ‹Eden›.
