Vol. 4 - Ch. 233 - A boy's only party. The passion of youth!

"Excuse me, Thank you. Thank you very much for inviting me today!""Gotcha. Let's do our best, Mona."

After all the classes were over for today and it was time to go back. The location was somewhere between the <Combat Department> and <Collection Department> where we met Mona.

I had contacted him earlier via chat to ask if he wanted to come with us to the dungeon and received his okay.

By the way, today's classes operate as scheduled. Two hours each for language, mathematics and history.

To be frank, they were hella amazing. Especially the language and history, they greatly satisfied my appetite for the setting of the <Dungeon Activity> that was not in the game. In fact, I have even already finished reading the textbooks.

History, in particular, struck the spot most. I have planned to borrow a lot of books of this category from the <Grand library>.I mean, it was a fact as default. As someone who took pride in his database, it's impossible for me to overlook the chance of filling the blind spot of my knowledge that was not available before.

Only mathematics was not that great compared to history. It was like... Elementary school level? Well this might be a hard nut to crack for the students who were ordinary villagers until now but for me who has recieved education in modern japan, it wasn't even a challenge. I wonder if Hannah is all right... I am quite worried about her.

Certainly, there wasn't any school etc in the village but I think there was a facility for basic education and Hannah should have studied there too but... Oh well, if she comes to me crying, I will just have to give her supplementary lessons. We're childhood friends after all.

Haa, it was really a blissful time which really pumped me with motivation. Ah, but I gotta hold my horses here, for the fun time isn't over yet.

For we're going to the dungeon today!

"Is he the one from the <Collection Department> you were talking about?"

So asked Saturn-kun as he arrived behind me.

"Yeah. He's Mona and although he's quite a shy type, he's a nice guy. 一Mona, he's Saturn. He's a bit of an odd guy but you don't need to mind that part."

"O-Okay!"

"Oi! Who are you calling an odd guy!"

Saturn-kun yelled something but I smoothly ignored him and introduced the remaining three members.

By the way, my words mean exactly what they mean.

"Anyway, I think we should move to the Beginner gate now."

"Hey! Why are you going ahead when I still am not over with talking about what you meant earlier. Or rather, it's my job to lead!"

"Fufu, please wait. It's obviously my job to lead no matter from how you see."

"Oi-Oi, stop daydreaming. I'm the Leader"

"It's unpardonable to forget ‘We’. 'We' are the true leader!"

Apparently... My classmates have begun to quarrel over the leadership out of the blue. What in the world are they doing?

"Woah. They surely are good on term terms."

And such an argument looks fun in Mona's eyes. It makes me feel like they're playing when thinking from this perspective.

Well, let's put them aside until they calm down. We moved our legs and began to walk towards the beginner gate.

"Ah, I forgot to tell, I have finally leveled up Farmer to Lv2!"

"Oh! Congratulations!"

My help was limited but it seems he's also working hard on his training too. Unfortunately, Mona isn't one of the guild members so I can't teach him about the Slipo Marathon.

As such, there's no other way but training to raise your level and even so, it's not easy to achieve this.

I have experienced it so I can tell. Mona had truly worked hard to raise his level in such a short time.

I have already thought of giving him an exclusive contract in future as long as he continues to work hard just like now. Everything is dependent on his own hard work.

He still lacks behind currently, being in the lower position as <Collection department Class-9>, but I hope he can become a fine master of harvest. I am also ready to give him a bit of a helping hand, so I think he will not lose much however......

As I was talking with Mona, Saturn-kun suddenly interrupted who apparently heard our conversation.

"Hold on. Do you forget we're going to the beginner-mid grade dungeon? Level 2 can't enter there! What's more, he shouldn't have even cleared away the beginner-lower grade dungeon!?"

"Hmm? Ah, don't worry about this. He can join us without any problem with the <Guest Bracelet>."

The level restriction doesn't apply to the wearer of <Guest Bracelet> as they are treated the same as average of party level.

In brief, Mona would be recognised as level 26, the average of the current party, despite being level 2 which will not hinder him from joining us. Else, It would be impossible for non-combatant jobs like those that belong to the production or collection department to traverse through the dungeon. Of course, you don't need the conqueror's mark either.

There's, however, one need to be careful about one point and that's the wearer who hasn't fulfilled the prerequisite to enter can't remove <Guest Bracelet> unless they exit the dungeon.

There's also the option to deliberately attack the monster to destroy the bracelet but I wouldn't recommend this option. Because it's dangerous. Monsters will be out for their blood.

Or so I explained this to not only Saturn-kun, but also to other two members who are unaware of this point.

"Heh. It's quite a convenient item."

Saturn-kun, as he looked at the bracelet equipped on Mona's hand with an impressed gaze, says.

"It is. It's worth even more than the drop of an average <Gold Chest>. 一and of course, you would be fined by academy if it were to be destroyed. You will be charged around 1 million Mir, so you absolutely must refrain from any unnecessary action."

"O-Of course I will."

Mona nodded like a broken toy as his face twitched.

"That's why, we will be in charge of kicking around the monsters. I'm leaving the harvesting job to you, Mona."

"P-Please leave it to me! So, which dungeon are we going to today?"

"A dungeon that's suitable for harvesting materials too. I am thinking of <Grassland Dungeon>."

And thus, we decided on Goblin as our target for today! Sᴇaʀch* Thᴇ ɴ0velFɪre.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
