chapter 16
The pace is too fast!
I approached Park Ha-yeon, who had fallen.
serious wounds.
His stomach was torn so much that his internal organs could be seen.
It’s a big deal.
If something happens to Park Ha-yeon, who will stop the Demon King?
He quickly took out a potion and sprinkled it on her.
New flesh sprouted and the torn skin was sutured.
“Wake. Park Ha-yeon!”
Park Ha-yeon kept shaking so as not to lose her mind.
‘Why did this happen?’
The attack event of the C-class monster ‘Luna Bear’.
It was an easy rescue mission, even for first-time users of ‘Hero Name: ZEUS’.
Having said that, there is one thing to point out.
Originally, the main character at this point had the skill ‘No Spiritual Dance’.
But since I ate it, the only skills I had were ‘Guardian of the Species’ and ‘Electrokinesis’ that manipulates electricity.
‘Is it because of me?’
I could catch ‘Luna Bear’ as a control even without a silent dance, but I thought that it might be difficult for general users.
At this point, I was convinced.
‘It’s because of me.’
I was suddenly very sorry.
I’ll have to ask Ha-yeon Park for a good performance soon.
As a deceased person in ‘Hero Name: ZEUS’, I know the location of the hidden skills hidden throughout the academy.
Park Ha-yeon opened her eyes gently.
She looked at me and smiled a little.
“You came to the rescue… … .”
“Don’t jump into places that are too dangerous. I’m worried if you get hurt.”
The teachers also showed up later.
Teachers who came fully armed.
They shook their heads when they saw this horrendous sight.
“Is everyone okay?”
I shrugged.
“Our team and Park Ha-yeon are fine, but the first group we attacked… .”
A student whose spine is bent in a direction it shouldn’t have been due to being hit hard by a tree.
A student whose face was torn off.
A student who was mutilated with claws and became bloody.
All but one were annihilated.
I knew they were going to die in the story.
Still, seeing this horrific scene, something hot came up in my heart.
I couldn’t pass without questioning the teacher.
“Why is ‘Luna Bear’ coming out? Didn’t I say that only horned rabbits and slimes would come out?!”
The teachers all turned their heads as if they had squeezed each other.
evasion of responsibility.
Only the class A class head bowed and said.
He was a young handsome man with horn-rimmed glasses.
“I’m sorry. This is not the original habitat of ‘Luna Bear’, but there must have been something strange.”
“then… … .”
‘There are degrees of insecurity!’
I was indignant, but there was nothing I could do about it.
The teacher who was apologizing looked at Yang Min-seo standing next to me and pretended to know.
“ah. Minseo Yang. Did your team kill Luna Bear?”
Min-seo Yang was also a famous person, even knowing the class A class teacher.
Yang Min-seo looked at me to see if my conscience was pricked to affirm it as it is.
I nodded my head slightly.
she said proudly.
“yes. I heard a scream, so I rushed to help. Student Shinnoda did a great job here.”
“Aha. this student? thank you.”
We retrieved the body and returned to base camp.
The atmosphere was gloomy.
There were casualties from the first day of admission, so it was worth it.
From the perspective of the teachers, the burden seemed to be high due to the issue of responsibility.
The teachers gathered us in the vacant lot and spread the word.
Me, Ha-yeon Park, and Min-seo Yang were standing in the front with the teachers.
An older teacher came forward and spoke up.
It was a stern look.
“Unfortunately, there were casualties while hunting, so we had to end all schedules early today. A powerful monster that did not appear in this area originally appeared. The cause is unknown, and an investigation team will be dispatched to find out the truth soon.”
murmur murmur.
Everyone looked serious when they heard that there had been casualties.
“The Academy has decided to close the Gigantic Great Forest Dungeon until the fact-finding is complete. Students who want to train should use the temporary training ground to be built on the second basement floor of the main building.”
The teacher pointed at us and added.
“Oh, and the students here noticed the dangers of the other group and went to help. If you are a hero, this attitude is important. let everyone imitate Min-seo Yang. And Park Ha-yeon… Which George are you?”
“Ah, I’m Kim Shin-hoo, Jo.”
“But where are the other crew members?”
“That is… .”
Park Ha-yeon mumbled and couldn’t answer straight.
The teacher questioned her.
“The rest of the crew did not agree. You acted alone. Am I right? Shin-hoo Kim, Cho, raise your hand.”
Three people raised their hands among the students who were listening.
The teacher looked at the nameplate of a male student and asked.
“Are you the captain?”
“Yes. I am Shin-hoo Kim.”
“Did Ha-yeon Park act alone?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
Park Ha-yeon’s expression darkened.
On the other hand, Kim Shin-hoo was confident.
“Why didn’t you go to the rescue?”
Kim Shin-hoo’s face turned blue.
He answered in a lower voice than before.
“Because I thought it was dangerous. I guess it’s because it’s in a dungeon… .”
“If you become a hero later and a villain stronger than you appears, won’t you pretend you didn’t see it like today? Are you going to let the citizens die?”
“uh… that… .”
He shook his head and did not answer properly.
The teacher tickled and gave him a pint glass.
“Well, your answer is not wrong. Just think of the case of being criticized in this way. Because if you go to practice, you will find such an absurd situation. It was a lesson for that.”
“Yes, I understand.”
It ended on a warm note, but the teacher added a word.
“ah. That’s it. Your group is deducted points for teamwork.”
“Yes… .”
The male student kept his mouth shut and looked at Park Ha-yeon.
So we got out of the dungeon.
Field-type dungeons were able to go in and out without clearing them.
Yang Min-seo, who passed the gate late, rushed to her with something in her hands.
She looked up at me and spread her hands.
Sparkling beads appeared.
“what?”
“It is an orb of growth. The teacher said it came from Luna Bear. The head coach told me to distribute it myself, but I think Shinnoda-san’s contribution is the highest, so I’ll give it all.”
Orb of Growth.
Read at n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲
Just like there is a ‘level up’ in a normal game, there was a ‘growth orb’ in this game.
I pondered for a while about how many I should concede.
‘No. No.’
It wasn’t either.
Yang Min-seo, Ji So-yeon, Oh Ha-na.
I’m sorry, but these guys have low growth potential.
What I eat is good for the world.
“thank you. I will write well.”
I took the marbles and ate them on the spot.

Also, compared to ‘Succession’, it’s ridiculously tight.
If I had used succession to ‘Luna Bear’, I would have gotten a lot more stats.
‘Shall we secretly visit the Gigantic Great Forest?’
The Gigantic Great Forest also had a hidden gimmick.
In the original story, the main character discovers the gimmick when he is in third grade, clears the dungeon and closes the gate.
‘I’ll think about it later.’
I had a lot of work to do right now.
First, you need to feed Ha-yeon Park with her hidden skills.
“Status window.”

Thanks to the Orb of Growth you just ate, your strength has risen from Class B to Class A.
I finally got an A grade with pure ability.
‘great.’
My growth has been very smooth.
Now, we only need to focus on Park Ha-yeon’s growth.
I waited in front of Class A to go home with Ha-yeon Park.
Class A was still in full swing.
Unlike Class B, which ended early because a patient with cynicism was the homeroom teacher, in Class A, the homeroom teacher seemed to have a lot to say.
“It’s more than that. Then see you all tomorrow.”
When the class teacher finished speaking, the students rushed out.
I caught Ha-yeon Park, who was rushing to somewhere.
“Where? Come with me.”
“Uh, huh? Something to say to the captain for a moment… .”
“Well… Is it important?”
“Oh, no, it’s not like that.”
“Then let’s go.”
Park Ha-yeon nodded and followed me.
After walking for a while, as I was about to leave the school gate, I said the purpose.
“Do you have anything to do tonight?”
“yes? Yes, but… why?”
“I have a place to go with you.”
She stutters in embarrassment.
“Uh, huh? Anyway, I think this is too fast… . Is the city like this?”
‘Why is he here?’
I couldn’t understand her blushing and panicking.
“Let’s talk while we eat.”
“Yes!”
We went to a restaurant we knew beforehand.
A restaurant specializing in Korean beef.
It was a restaurant that only served the highest quality Korean beef.
I turned the meat over and spoke.
“At night. Let’s sneak into school.”
“Hey, you do it at school?! Even so… … .”
“What, have you ever done this? Try it at least once with your friends.”
“Do you do it once with your friends?! W, Seoul people are different.”
Park Ha-yeon… He’s also the main character, so he’s quick-witted.
I haven’t even talked about the courage test yet, but you’re aware of it.
Of course, the test of courage is camouflage.
Actually, I was planning to find and clear the dungeon ‘by accident’.
All to give her good skills.
The gate of the hidden dungeon I will go to appears only when special conditions are met.
There are other things, but first, you have to go to the women’s restroom on the second floor of the school annex late at night.
“Let’s go eat at 10 o’clock. By then there will be no one there. Would you like to pass the time by 10 o’clock in Kono?”
“okay!”
Then there’s something I forgot.
“Oh right. Leave a message to the teacher saying that you may not be able to go to school tomorrow just in case. Let’s just pretend it’s sick.”
Clearing the hidden dungeon takes longer than expected.
From the user’s point of view, it was about an hour, but it turned out to be quite a while in-game.
I’m not sure, but when I clear the dungeon, the main character becomes monologue like this.
<When I came out of the dungeon, it was already morning. What happened last night is like a dream.>
That means at least until the next morning.
Park Ha-yeon was in tears.
“My wife, this is my first time, how much are you trying to do this!”
“It depends on what you do, but at least you can do it until tomorrow morning.”
“Hib.”
