CH 74

The three head for the transition gate at the city's edge, which is used to teleport between different city levels.

"What is the plan for today? Chigo."

On the way there, Fuyuki slowly asked Chigo.

Chigo naturally put her hand to her chin and began to groan. Apparently, she had fallen asleep a second time after that and hadn't thought much about today's plan.

Tenji couldn't help but chuckle inwardly, as he had noticed over the past week that Chigo was weak in the mornings.

"Hmmm...levels 8 and 9 are going to be crowded, so why don't we go to the 10th or above? That way we can both fight and train more comfortably, right?"

"I think I would appreciate that. I don't have good control over my abilities yet." Tenji replied.

"I'm fine with that too! I prefer to stay out of sight."

"Well, that's the way it is. Oh, You guys are already used to fighting the monsters in the 8th and 9th levels, right? Tenji-kun has already fought a lot in the past week. Fuyuki, you don't have any problems either, do you?" Chigo asked.

"I have no problem with that."

"Me too. I guess I'm tired of both the Shadow Monkey and the Tree Lizard, they're so weak." Tenji replied.

"Yes, yes, you guys are the only students in Japan who can say that."

Chigo chuckles and looks at the two promising students.

Tenji had fought a series of monsters up to the 15th level during the past week. None of them were monsters that would give Tenji a hard time, and Tenji himself did not even have to fight them in the first place.

The Goblins of the hell beasts were enough.

[TLN: So it's finally revealed, Chigo knows about hell beasts summoning too]

Fuyuki had already reached the 55th level, so he could stroll through the upper dungeons just for fun.

So they continued walking and arrived at a small fountain square at the edge of town.

There, stores were spread along a circular street, with a large sculpted fountain and gate in the center.

The gate was built into a fountain; by going to the fountain and thinking of the place you wanted to go to, you could move between levels. This dungeon has no stairs or loopholes to move up or down the levels.

If the person has already arrived at a certain level, it is possible to skip a level and move to a new one at once, but if the person has not yet arrived at a certain level, it is only possible to move one level at a time. It was like leveling up in a game.

Research has often been done on this, but the mechanism of transition has yet to be unraveled. Incidentally, anyone can make the transition up to the fifth level without doing anything.

The other groups gathered at the fountain plaza one after another, and after a final meeting and preparatory exercises, they went under the transition gate one after another.

To use the transition gate, simply move to a nearby location, join hands with those who will be transferring together, and utter the number of the level you wish to go to.

As you do so, your body naturally emits light, and your vision shifts to the desired place when you open it.

The fact that this means of teleporting from one place to another becomes an integral part of daily life is one of the reasons why this place is often referred to as a different world.

It's probably because it's a natural world that uses an unfamiliar means of transportation called teleportation for any movement.

From the perspective of the average person who does not dive through dungeon gates as an explorer daily, many people still consider transition and monsters to be out of the ordinary.

They had already finished their preparatory exercises, so Tenji did a light final stretching routine.

Meanwhile, Chigo wandered into a nearby food stall and general store to pass the time by buying things. Fuyuki, to gain some muscle tone, began plank muscle training for his torso next to Tenji.

Fuyuki then slowly began to speak to Tenji.

He is a kind older brother who cares about He was a great acquaintance to Tenji.

"How are you doing so far?.....Are you getting used to Mallorca yet?"

"I haven't been able to talk to everyone in the class yet, but I'm getting used to the natural environment."

"Well, Tenji, I don't blame you. In your calling, you don't even talk to us as far as I'm concerned. For better or worse, foreigners tend to be more reasonable than Japanese people."

"Well, that's true. But I don't feel lonely because Fuyuki, Pyne and Chigo-chan are by my side. I feel a little better just knowing that there are people who know me."

Fuyuki is one of the few who knows about Tenji's secret.

Now, only seven people know more about Tenji's special ability. Chigo, Leon, and three members of the guild. And only three students, Fuyuki, Rui, and Aika. Besides, Chariot's Kujo knew about it too.

Tenji has already told them some things about his calling, and they treat it as a secret.

But only two people, Chigo and Fuyuki, knew most of the things about Tenji's actual life.

The other five only knew some of the truth.

The reason he told Fuyuki was partly that he had initially known him since they were small and had little resistance, but the most crucial reason was also that they dive together in the dungeon almost every day.

Since they are always there, there is no need to hide them. He told Fuyuki everything because it would be difficult to move around if his calling was a secret.

This is just a matter of patience until Tenji becomes more than a first-grade explorer.

Yes, he made a promise to Leon.

It is too early to judge when he will achieve that.

"I was wondering if it was a good idea for you to be with me and Chigo. Didn't you used to take practical exercises with another teacher?"

"Your former teacher? Of course I did, but I still want to learn from Chigo. When I first met her, I had the impression that she was just a young woman, but after the mock battle, I realized I wanted to learn everything from her."

When Chigo first became a teacher here, she was not very popular with the students because she was unknown.

Even with the lectures she had at first, only a few students volunteered to take them.

One day, however, that all changed.

"The mock battle that day was awesome, wasn't it? Fuyuki, you were fighting normally with the benefit of status, weren't you?"

"Yes, we were at full throttle. But Chigo didn't invoke any status benefits, even though she used her skills. It was tough...... and I couldn't even touch her with my fingertips, you know? I was jealous because we were only two years apart in age, but what a difference in strength!" Fuyuki said.

"......Surely, Chigo is crazy. She's on the level of a genius or anything. She has monstrous strength."

"That's an odd thing to say."

It was Tenji's third day in Mallorca.

Fuyuki and Chigo had a mock battle in the lecture.

Chigo's talented fighting style and her ability to overpower the famous Fuyuki without the benefit of her calling made her explosively popular among the students.

The boys were immediately drawn to her cute appearance and eye-catching pure white hair color.

From then on, no one treated Chigo as a mediocre teacher, and she became known as a monster with a talent of another dimension.

However, she is usually a regular, pretty 19-year-old girl.

"Well, Tenji is a monster too."

"No, no, no, it's you, Fuyuki. You're Japan's greatest treasure, you know? It's a little strange to have a celebrity who's on the Internet news almost every day right next to you."

"I was so surprised to hear that it is really reported in Japan. I don't really understand it because we don't hear about it here." Fuyuki replied.

"On that note, I'm still unknown ...... ..I enrolled in Mallorca Escuela and I'm not even in the news?"

"That's because you're a "swordsman" on the outside. The press must have thought there was not much profit in it or perhaps Mr. Leon and his team are controlling the information in the first place."

"Is Mr. Kaido such a great guy?"

"What? You don't know? He has great connections. When I first met him, he said, 'I'm going to make a phone call,' and he was on the phone with the president of the United States. I still remember how surprised I was."

Tenji again learns about Kaido's greatness from the shocking facts he hears.

Tenji had tried several times before today to search for his name to see if he was in the news, but not once did his name come up.

[They really are in control of my information, aren't they? A little sad and thankful ......]

As Tenji was thinking this, Chigo approached him with a look of delight on her face, having bought a paper bag full of muffins.

In another hand, she also held a delicious-looking drink, which turned out to be a drink made with milk - her favorite drink.

'Perhaps all the nutrition from the milk is going to those boobs.'

Two adolescent boys could not help but think so.
