Shock. 

A pandemonium has descended upon the second year students group seeing <Eden> appearing in the <Int-low> dungeon.

889. Nameless 2nd year Adventurer

So the time has finally come, huh.

No, maybe I should say the inevitable?

890. Nameless 1st year Angler

Adventure-san sounds kinda melancholic.

Did something happen to you?

891. Nameless 2nd year Axman

It might not have any connection to freshmen but there had been a lot on the plate of sophomores lately.

Especially so for this year, which is kinda special.

I'm not any different either.

892. Nameless 3rd year Doctor

The <Eden> has finally embarked on a ride to conquer the Intermediate dungeons!

I think they just wanted to focus on strengthening the war potential of the guild mostly, and now it seems they have finally made their mind to advance!

893. Nameless 2nd year Adventurer

Ahhh! But it's fine if they chill out and take it more slowly though!

For god's sake, they have just enrolled!? Why are they in so much of a rush!?

894. Nameless 1st year Angler

Woah, the Adventurer-san exploded!

895. Nameless 2nd year Magician

Tis but a familiar sight to us already, so relax, First year.

896. Nameless 2nd year Adventurer

Please! I'm awfully worried!

Atleast give us some time to adjust even if you want to overtake us for heaven's sake!

897. Nameless 2nd year Magician

What naive thinking you have, will not everything be fine with just a bit more hard work?

Besides, relax. <Eden> is an exception among exceptions.

Not to say, what can you do even if they overtake you? You think you might be able to win against <Eden>?

898. Nameless 2nd year Adventurer

...... Thinking back, maybe so.

I for sure thought the same if I were to be overtaken by first years, but strangely enough, I only had the feeling of "It can't be helped" when it comes to Eden who is right now under snowball effect.

899. Nameless 2nd year Producer

I think you will be overtaken by the first year group if you simply raise your hands to surrender like this. My gut feeling is telling me that.

900. Nameless 2nd year Adventurer

Ahhh! I really hate being overtaken!

901. Nameless 2nd year Magician

Producer-chan, don't bully him too much.

902. Nameless 1st year Angler

Oh~, I think I get it more or less.

Adventure-san. Please live well. Let's go fishing someday.

903. Nameless 2nd year Producer

And then you will be overtaken while you're spending time fishing leisurely. Good-Good.

904. Nameless 2nd year Adventurer

Ahh! I think I might quit fishing!

905. Nameless 1st year Angler

Whaa!? You will not do that, right, Adventure-san!? Right!?

906. Nameless 2nd year Axman

The sophomores have no time to play around anymore, don't cha think so?

907. Nameless 2nd year Magician

This is the result of goofing around in your first year.

As the saying goes - You reap what you sow.

908. Nameless 2nd year Adventurer

The world is too tough!! Please be more gentle with me!

909. Nameless 1st year Angler

Please don't overwork yourself, Adventure-san! Let's go fishing to relax your spirit!

910. Nameless 2nd year Adventurer

Stoooop! Stop seducing me!

911. Nameless 1st year Angler

Ehh!? Even when I'm inviting you so gently!?

11. Nameless 2nd year Priest

It seems <Eden> has arrived at <Jurrapa>.

12. Nameless 2nd year Axman

<Jurrapa> you say?

But isn't that dungeon famous for its high status monsters?

I think it's kind of a bad choice to select as your first dungeon to start your journey to the next hierarchy of dungeons.

13. Nameless 3rd year Supporter

Actually, I think this concept might not be valid for them.

14. Nameless 2nd year Priest

Ohh, Supporter-senpai has descended!

15. Nameless 2nd year Fighter

Our Supporter-senpai has appeared!

16. Nameless 2nd year Magician

What might you mean by that, Supporter-senpai?

As far as I know, isn't <Dinosaur's hill> famous for being a dungeon which even third year students refuse to enter?

17. Nameless 3rd year Supporter

You're not wrong.

The monsters there are indeed strong, even if standalone.

The difficulty more so spikes up with the appearance of wandering bosses from the 21st floor and onwards, and there are a lot of cases of party wipeout.

It's the dungeon with the highest rate for party wipeout.

A dungeon that will let you know it's not the trap or anything that dangers them the most, but the monsters.

18. Nameless 2nd year Priest

Newcomers usually choose a different dungeon.

For example <Relics of the Camphor Laurel> dungeon where although traps are more but the risk of wipeout is at least lower.

There are traps everywhere from the ceiling, on the path or wall where you can't afford to be relaxed but equivalently, the monsters there are weak. It's a relatively easy dungeon as long as the challengers take along a Trapper with themselves.

19. Nameless 3rd year Supporter

Certainly, the dungeons relatively easier to conquer are already known to the public. 

For example, there are also <The Three Wooden Bridges> dungeons or <Citadel of the Thieving Rats> dungeons that are famous.

Characteristics wise, the monsters hardly matter there.

20. Nameless 2nd year Axman

And among them, the one that's said to be most difficult to conquer, the one with unusually strong monsters is <Dinosaur's hill> dungeon. 

Especially the rate of wipeout.

It practically doesn't have that many sophomores approaching.

21. Nameless 3rd year Supporter

However, even if one is said to be difficult to conquer for students, it might not be the same for instructors.

22. Nameless 2nd year Axman

Huh, what do you mean?

23. Nameless 2nd year Magician

You mean it's just a matter of different opinion and perspective regarding conquest?

24. Nameless 3rd year Supporter

Bull's eye.

According to the information from a certain muscle-brain, <Dinosaur's hill> is a dungeon most easy to attack among all the ten int-low dungeons.

25. Nameless 2nd year Priest

Huhhh? How come!?

I have challenged said dungeon, had noticed it would be overexerting ourselves to continue after 5th floor and decided to retreat but we still faced the wipeout, you know!?

The monsters there are simply freaks even if they aren't bosses.

The two tanks we had didn't even last long before being blown away!

26. Nameless 3rd year Supporter

That's right.

8 or 9 out of 10, you will face the same situation if you challenge it under the same level category.

That being said, its experience value pales in comparison if you were to challenge it after raising your level.

It's more so of a reason why we kept it an arm's length, but......

What if it's your status that triumphs over them in the same level region?

27. Nameless 2nd year Axman

Huh?

28. Nameless 2nd year Priest

That's......

It would be the reversal of prey and predator.

29. Nameless 2nd year Magician

Yeah, not to say there are almost no traps and the terrain is just right. An easier to clear dungeon among present int-low in that regard as you have said.

If one can handle the sole menace of <Dinosaur's hill> dungeon, the monsters, easily, the exploration might be much smoother.

30. Nameless 3rd year Supporter

Well, you practically summed up everything I wanted to say.

In short, <Brave> is strong. It's a strong job.

In addition, <Eden> is almost the gathering of top class jobs.

They have an edge over the dinosaur monsters even with status, so there shouldn't be any easier dungeon for them than this one.

31. Nameless 2nd year Magician

I see. That was indeed a blindspot.

I have to say, <Brave>-kun surely has a clear discernment regarding dungeons.

32. Nameless 3rd year Supporter

<Brave> has never taken any action that proves to be useless from looking at the trend so far.

It's almost as if he has the modus operandi of all the dungeons about exploration secured in his hand.

Even the matter about <dungeon carriage> is still fresh in my mind.

High rank guilds have already begun to eye on <Brave>'s strategies. 

The guilds that will imitate the <Eden> will rise up in future and who knows, we may also get the hints about high rank dungeons.

33. Nameless 3rd year Swordsman

Hmm, the topic has become quite a grandiose one...

What do you want to say in the end?

34. Nameless 2nd year Fighter

You! Are you dumb!?

The gist is those eyeing the <Brave> action will be stealing his tricks of how he conquered them.

35. Nameless 3rd year Supporter

Yeah.

Especially the case of <Dungeon carriage> which was simply wonderful.

After all, it opens the path where we can prioritize the conquest by ignoring monsters, traps etc above anything.

High ranking dungeons, a place shrouded in mystery where the feet of our human race has yet to get a firm foothold.

The <Dungeon Carriage> is a hope which will keep the expenditure of items and one's power in check, while rapidly pushing forward the conquest.

36. Nameless 2nd year Priest

Gulp

You mean the same high ranking dungeons whose exploration is stagnant till now? 

The same high ranking dungeon who is like the iceberg whose tip can't be seen? 

You're saying there will soon be a time where it can be conquered?

This seriously has become a hot discussion.

Rather, what in the world is that <Brave>?

37. Nameless 3rd year Supporter

I bet, <Brave> is a mystery even more incomprehensible than high ranking dungeons.

But either way, there's no mistake that <Eden> is now the center of everyone's attention.

It would be better if you also pay attention to <Eden> from here on, even if it's just to not fall behind.

38. Nameless 2nd year Priest

Roger!

You have my eternal gratitude, Supporter-senpai! Your information is really eye opening!

39. Nameless 2nd year Axman

The whole academy has begun to pay attention to <Eden>.

What in tarnation is brewing......
