-Swoof.
A sword dug into the scorching dry ground and became buried in it. There was blood smeared all over it, and even some blood could be seen hardening.
Henry dropped down for a breather, his hands on his sword pressed to the ground. But before he could even gather his breath, a shadow dashed towards him from behind.
"Shit."
-Thrust -Thrust.
He immediately rose up, ready to deflect the attack, but he was halted when he noticed two white lines across the monster's torso before its heads slid off perfectly.
"Don't take a break now," Moritz advised.
Even he was exhausted. His knees and join
Within the dungeon, in a certain part of the dungeon.Four persons sat on the dry ground, facing each other. One of them was sketching on the ground as the others stared intently."So we encircle the creature and use the hit-and-run tactic you mentioned?" Henry examined the scribbled figures on the ground, which were difficult to identify."We've only just entered the dungeon, so encountering a boss monster is out of the question. At most, it would be a somewhat more powerful monster that stays alone." I mentioned this based on my dungeon experience.From my experience, the boss of a Mystic rank dungeon should be at Unique rank, however, given the unique nature of this dungeon, the boss being at a higher rank such as disaster is also a possibility.
Gate ALuke's squad had encountered a high-rank monster that was both dangerous and unexpected, at least in light of their current position.Eliza huddled behind a large enough boulder to cover her entire body, taking deep breaths. She had overestimated the dungeon's power. Even when they chose the easiest entrance in the dungeon, they were experiencing difficulties.After they dispatched the initial wave of goblins, a swarm of them appeared out of nowhere. And they had to keep fighting them without getting a chance to breathe.They were just fortunate because goblins were extremely weak.The arrow she took from the goblin archer had left a dent in her chest armour. Fortunately, the arro
Why hadn't I considered this before?There was no one checking on the students inside the dungeon, nor was there anything to keep an eye on them.What the instructors said when they told everyone that anything could happen was true.This implied that groups had possibly already formed.The nobles who follow the Fourth Prince may have already banded together with his crew, making the dungeon a lot simpler for them.Furthermore, the nobles might give their kills to Luke's squad in order for his team to win first place. It was all worth it if Luke guaranteed them something for their noble families.What about the common people? They might be in luck because the nobles have formed a g
"The temperature is turning cold."The arid night was just as unpleasant as the day. The suns have vanished, and the moon has taken their place.The gorgeous moonlight betrayed the night's severity. It was brutally freezing as if the night were the polar opposite of the day."Set up three additional fires around us because the night is going to be cold. Monsters aren't the only things capable of killing us." I stated as I piled up the final scale from the Sandcrawler to make a cover to keep the freezing desert breeze at bay.We had already burned the bodies of the students, and to be honest, none of us felt so guilty about it. It just left a foul taste; there was nothing to be concerned about.And I've already gotten the memo
I swerved to the side as hastily as I could. "Zing!" That high-speed arrow flew past like a bolt of lightning, penetrating the startled Gerard's neck. It punctured his neck, leaving a gaping wound behind as it sailed for a few dozens of meters before landing.Gerard's eyes widened as he clutched his throat. As fresh blood poured from his mouth, he gargled some incomprehensible words."Urgh...urg…" Gerard's eyes glowed with a yearning for life. They were filled with regret and confused thoughts, but as the blood began to gush out of Gerard's gaping wound, all life left his eyes, and he collapsed.As we ducked under the sand, the others ignored Gerard's frigid corpse."Fuck!" Moritz yelled aggressively enough for the enemy to hear him.
"1, 2, 3... 12... 18." "They gathered together, huh?" I observed, noticing the group of students rushing towards us, their expressions solemn. But it wasn't that that drew my attention. [Status] Name: Rosemarie Kaiser Race: Half-Human, Half-Spirit Class: Oracle Element: Light Level 75 (Weaken) Age: 18 [Associated Skills - Prophecy Artwork - Divine Blessing, Words of Wisdom, Ruler's Authority.] That woman has changed a lot. Her long white hair cascaded down to her hips, and she emanated a commanding presence with a stern and unwavering expression. She didn't resemble the previous seductress. I narrowed my eyes as I stared at her intently. I remember her being so frail that even the most feeble creatures would have been capable of killing her. Her oracle powers were the only thing she had going for her, yet she had quickly risen to become one of the academy's most formidable students. "Be cautious," I urged Henry. "Haha... haha. Our queen has finally arrived! "I'm going t
"We don't have a lot of time."Eliza peered out from behind the boulder she was hiding behind, looking at the monster creeping towards them."I'll buy as much time as I possibly can." She said this with an uneasy look on her face.Luke sighed as he looked between Eliza and the others. He did, in fact, have a plan to get them out of this alive.Another truth he had kept hidden even from his own family.A secret he'd like to keep for as long as he can, but now isn't the time."Eliza! Don't flee, I'll be there to support you. Instead, fight!"Luke yelled, drawing the monster's attention.Eliza
The Recon Room of the Academy.It was bustling with people from numerous noble houses vying for the leadership of the empire. There were also distinguished families present, such as the Ironwing Ducal family and the Whitepalace Ducal family."The Second Exam will be a month-long.According to the instructor in command of the recon team.The academy stated that the dungeon would not be watched, but this was really an act to allow the pupils to be free and reveal their actual selves. Many representatives were sweating profusely since they had no idea the second exam had begun.The academy was so well-kept that only a few people knew about it.E
