37 – 037 – Flower in Both Hands Dual Swords # 3
037 – Two-Handed Flower Dual Blade #3
full spring.
A languid classroom where sunlight permeates after lunch.
The perfect situation to doze off with the sound of the crunchy pen drawing paper.
However, the students in Class A-1 were very enthusiastic, and no one fell asleep or stayed silent.
“Neva, don’t sleep. You are a penalty.”
“Sorry, sorry… !”
“Are you nervous because it’s Saturday? You guys have to make up for it even on the weekends because class progress is late because you’re a kid or something.”
With the exception of Neva, the ‘inferior student’ in class A, the class attitude of the rest of the students was quite enthusiastic.
In many ways, it’s different from when I was in school.
In the first place, the class itself was completely different from back then.
Teacher Bergerac said.
“There are dungeons called labyrinths or dungeons everywhere in Ludens. There are a total of four dungeons revealed by your seniors. Among them, “The Black Dragon’s Lair”… .”
Is it the nest of the black dragon?
This is the place where the black dragon Fafnir crouched.
It’s a place I frequented often because the rewards were generous.
It’s a pretty difficult place to attack, but once you get there anyway, the specs of the party members are so high that it’s just a place to hit with a deal.
Studying about such a dungeon?
Is there a world where if you play a lot of games, your grades go up?
i love it!
However, the faces of the other guys were very serious and sometimes looked painful.
“Ah, I don’t understand a thing.”
“Alecto, can you show me some of your notes during the break? I didn’t hear it halfway through… .”
“… Yes, no.”
It’s a game story to me, but it’s a real study for these guys.
What students don’t like to study is the same as Ludens and reality.
In reality, there were some kids who said things like ‘studying is fun’. Most of the guys who went to Seoul National University were like that.
They were very strange people who said studying was fun.
… But is that me now?
Should I make handwritten notes during the exam and sell them for money?
“Of course, this dungeon must be a place that kids like you now can’t even begin to explore. In that sense, this evaluation will be decided by exploring the dungeon. Go to a place that suits your level. Instead, there is no make-up class tomorrow Sunday. good?”
At the story of the teacher, Bergerac, the students here and there expressed their disapproval, saying, “Ugh.” It was noisy.
“That teacher. Number 23 Daily Rumor. I have a question.”
“Tell me.”
“Is there a way to replace it with something else without going to the dungeon? I used to teach like that until 1st grade. Dungeons are dangerous!”
“no. Defeat the cores or powerful elite monsters located inside the dungeon and bring the ‘Aura of Play’ as evidence. All the guys who can’t bring it are F’s.”
Even thinking about it, it was a really crappy class.
If I had a class like this in real life, everyone would have stood up right away.
“I, that… .”
Then one student raised his hand.
He is an ordinary-looking male student with plain brown hair.
Are you trying to get into this weird class?
“Are you number 40 Neva? Any questions?”
“What is the ‘energy of play’ you mentioned?”
“I am These things come in as if they were in class A. Big disappointment. Does any of you have experience entering a dungeon? Raise your hand.”
why do you ask me to raise my hand
Raise your hand because you can’t lose a day’s allotment lie figure in a place like this.
Apart from me, Melvin, Dearmid, Megaira, Luke, and Enlil all raised their hands.
“Only seven? Those who aim to become heroes will live or die—don’t come to this Ludens with half-hearted resolutions without such resolutions.”
Saying so, Bergerac’s gaze met me sitting in the back seat.
What I see in those eyes cast in the thick darkness is a feeling of anticipation.
why look at me
The teacher, Bergerac, who opened his mouth as if to say something, said, “Then, this is the end of today’s class,” and then left without hesitation.
A classroom where the teacher has left.
At the same time as a little awkward silence flowed——a noise that seemed to come crashing in.
“Melvin! party with me! I heard you guys go into dungeons every day these days?”
“That, what does that mean?”
“There are rumors! Deermid is with me too! please! I’ll buy you dinner instead!”
It is clamoring to organize a party here and there.
Because dungeons usually have a party of 4 people.
Even if you divide it by only the number of people in Class A-1, which is 40 people, there will be 10 parties.
Why are all evaluations group assignments?
Only then can introverts and introverts study because they are sad?
Fortunately, this assignment fits perfectly with my future plans.
Getting a party is easy.
“Victor-kun, did you really know that Mr. Bergerac would give you an assignment like this? We were supposed to go to the dungeon today.”
Enio wondered if the dungeon “Tropical Jungle” we were heading to today was related to the assignment of the eccentric teacher Bergerac.
“no.”
I didn’t know either.
It was pure luck.

Just in time, I wanted to find new materials and experiment with the newly acquired sword.
Are you given a task that is just right for you?
The feeling that someone is blowing luck on me.
Yes, there is a term called mean reversion.
If you have the misfortune of owing 200 million won in your life history, shouldn’t you also have that much luck?
* * *
Each dungeon is different.
Most of the dungeons in D&A are standard for 4 players.
In other words, including me, Victorica, and Enio, the three of us have already been saved.
One spot left.
It’s hard to decide who to put here.
Adding three sisters like Megaira and Alecto doesn’t work well with Victorica.
However, when we add Victoria’s friend Shadi, Shady is not on good terms with Enio.
“Should I ask Nike?”
If it’s Nike, who’s moderately cool with Enio and moderately cool with Victory Car, there should be enough synergy at the party.
Above all, the three main heroines.
I was curious about what combination name would be given when entering a dungeon with three main heroines in a party.
In D&A, there is a specific name attached to each character combination when forming a party.
In the case of Melvin and Dearmid, it is simply ‘duo’.
When the three sisters Tisiphone, Alecto, and Megara are appointed as a party, they are given names like ‘Erinies’.
Form a combination with three main heroines?
There must be a dedicated combination name.
To find out the name of a new combination as a deceased person.
I can’t stand this again.
If you put up with this, it’s a fake deceased person.
“Mokey Mokey sheep? I know Miss Mokey Mokey has a strange talent. It’s class C. Will it really help in the dungeon? This is a place where lives come and go, so Miss Mokey Mokey could be in danger.”
“I don’t really like agreeing with Miss Victoria. I think so. Did you say Miss Nike is that black magician? You’re a black magician… .”
However, the attitude of Enio and Victoria was very lukewarm.
He seemed very unreliable when he said that he was taking a class C student to a dungeon that even class A students were afraid to enter.
I remembered Nike’s “Toge Root” technique.
The roots that sprouted in an instant caught up with the opponent and subdued them.
That was enough for him to be able to compete with the class A students.
Since the [Tropical Jungle] we’re going to go ahead is going to be a forest field, it might work well with Nike’s Earth Magic.
But did Nike ask me to keep the fact that he uses earth magic a secret?
Still, it would be better to ask the person in question first.
“Moke~Moke~.”
“So, Nike. What are you doing here?”
“Ugh, rain, Viktor! Didn’t you say you had a make-up class today!?”
I was able to spot Nike wearing a strange mask in the shopping district.
“Victor, what are you doing here… .”
“Nike, you were working part-time at a place like this.”
“This, this… .”
Nike seems to have been secretly working part-time from me.
It was like a part-time job wearing a doll mask and distributing flyers.
The mask was a radish-like beast with leaves growing on its head.
Is this the vegetable shop mascot?
Then a call is heard from inside.
“Nike! what are you doing there! If you goof around, you get an hourly wage cut!”
“Yes Yes! president! Moke~ Moke~. Fresh fruits and vegetables, moke~moke~.”
What is it?
As I wondered, Enio, who was watching this from the side, smiled.
“That’s Mokey Mokey. A beast that can be found in the forests west of the mainland. Miss Mokey Mokey wore a Mokey Mokey doll mask. fun.”
“… … .”
… Is there really a beast called Moke-Moke?
Is this a setting added as DLC?
That’s why other people reacted more sensitively than me when they heard the name Mokey Mokey.
If my name were, for example, Victor Malamute or Victor Rhino, everyone would think it was strange.
No, is rhino cool?
anyway.
Nike took off the doll mask only after lunchtime at 1:00 in the afternoon.
“Huh, it was hot!”
“Nike, didn’t you tell me you had a part-time job?”
“… It’s only on weekdays and weekends. I also promised to earn money and pay off the debt.”
Thinking about it, I remembered the fact that Nike had said that he would work hard too, that was his self-definition.
Is that why you were working part-time without a break until the weekend?
“It’s good to work, but take good care of your condition.”
If you overwork your body for no reason, you will pay more for hospital bills.
“Yes. So Viktor, what have you been up to here? I don’t think I came here to buy turnips at the store. Miss Enio and Miss Victoria are together… .”
Nike’s emerald eyes swayed wildly from side to side as she looked at Enio and Victorica. He seemed a bit nervous.
After all, there are two celebrities in the academy at once, so is that burdensome? No, he looks anxious like a guilty person.
To reassure Nike and to save my precious time, I got to the point.
“Nike, I’m thinking of going to the dungeon this weekend. One spot left for the party. won’t you go with me? If you accept, we can just make rough preparations and go right away.”
“… Dungeon?”
Nike, who glances at us.
Then he gestures at me.
Do you mean put your ear to it?
When I put my ear close to Nike, he made a trumpet with his palms around his lips and whispered something.
“I, as a druid, have to keep it a secret, so I might not be of much help in the dungeon. Are you okay? It might just be a burden… .”
I also answered in a small whisper.
“That’s fine. After all, just Victorica and Enio would be enough.”
In the first place, I was going to test the power of my swordsmanship, so I might not need Nike’s help.
What I need Nike’s help for is life content, not combat content.
“Tropical Jungle”.
what if it’s tropical
It’s a tropical fruit.
Something like fruit picking, Nike with the «Pharmacy» skill would do amazingly well again.
At that time, Victoria said in a slightly displeased tone for some reason.
“What are you whispering about? Anyway, Miss Mokey Mokey seems to be in trouble. Dungeon is a dangerous place for class C students. It was an embarrassing request for no reason.”
Enio also nodded.
“Certainly, it might have been a bit early for Miss Nike.”
When talking about Nike, Enio and Victorica’s breathing seems strangely well matched.
Isn’t it only in the 10th act of the episode that is close to the ending that these guys’ opinions are unified?
With that feeling, Enio and Victoria started another discussion.
“Shady shoots a bow well. They also have search skills, so they will definitely come in handy in dungeons. I also have recording skills, so I will be good at mapping.”
“No, Megara or Alecto. Or would it be better to take Tisiphone? They don’t have dungeon experience, but they’re full of practical experience. Practice is different from theory.”
Everyone seems to want to put their friends in the dungeon, putting Nike on the back burner.
Isn’t that what it means to bend your arms inward?
the world is like that
There’s a reason why people with ties and ties go out better.
If the goal this time was to ‘clear’ the dungeon, I might have done as Enio or Victorica said.
However, it was the time when I was about to open my mouth saying “No—.”
“… I-I want to go too.”
Even though Nike stuttered, he spoke confidently.
