I Noticed That It Was an Academy After 10 Years

226.Dungeons Are Not Playgrounds (3)

…I can’t wake up.

After a good night’s sleep, I opened my eyes to find an unexpected ordeal clinging to me on either side.

I looked alternately at Elisa and Karina on either side of me.

…I don’t think I should move.

No, before that, why is Elisha sleeping next to me?

It was definitely Milia’s last turn.

I turned my head and looked towards the entrance. The last group was Millia and Shuri.

I seriously thought about how I could escape from the two people who were sleeping with my arms as pillows.

Another way was to wake them up or wait for them to wake up, but it was a bit dangerous to do that because they were so close together.

A soft and fluffy feel on both arms.

Aside from the sentiment that it feels like a cushion made of fat when it’s that big, I’m afraid of how other people will react when they see this scene.

The ratio of women is already so high that there are a lot of things to be careful about, but to find ourselves in a situation like this.

It’s like the main character in a harem story, but there’s no way something like that could happen in real life.

…They say this is a world where polygamy is possible, but that’s only for high-ranking people and I’m just a knight.

Now, the value of the name has become a bit high to call it just an article.

“…Johanniim…”

Why are you dreaming, calling my name?

I looked at Elisa for a moment and then very slowly and carefully began to pull her body out her.

The feeling I felt every time I moved made me wonder if I would stay still like this, but I didn’t want to cause any unnecessary misunderstanding.

I have so much to do.

“…It’s harder now than when we caught Harpas.”

After barely getting out, I quietly threw some firewood I had brought from outside into the almost-dying bonfire. Little by little, warm heat began to push out the chilly, foggy air of the cemetery.

I looked at the people who were still sleeping and then came out through the entrance.

“John?”

“John?”

“Both of you go in and close your eyes. “I’ll watch it alone.”

“Thank you…”

Anyway, I won’t be able to sleep properly if my eyes are full of sleep. I let Shuri in and looked at Milia, who was clinging to me and shaking her head.

“You go in and sleep too.”

“I’m just going to sleep like this…”

“…Not even a child.”

“Then I want to be a kid.”

“Didn’t I tell you to call me sister last time?”

“That is that and this is this.”

As I sat down on the floor, Milia leaned into my arms and closed her eyes. I stroked Milia’s hair and looked around her.

Well, nothing much will happen… But I still have to work.

—————

“Overall, the same pattern as yesterday will continue. But you can’t let your guard down, so stay alert.”

“Four!”

“Yes…”

“If Karina uses the purification magic, won’t everything disappear?”

“It is not good to waste energy on useless things.”

If Karina goes on a rampage, there will be no easier dungeon exploration for her.

But that shouldn’t be the case.

Not only is there a point where you don’t gain any experience, but if you can’t use holy magic at a really dangerous moment, you may have trouble conquering the dungeon.

“The formation is the same as yesterday. The speed goes similarly. When you start to see a blurry figure in the fog, tap the person in front of you on the shoulder. Did you understand?”

Everyone nodded quietly to what I said. Well then, the preparations are over.

“I will leave.”

We played hard with our feet like we did yesterday. It was a tedious journey as we couldn’t casually chat, but that’s what dungeon exploration is all about.

A series of tense and relaxed moments.

Fortunately, there was less urgency here, so I was less tired.

In the Dragon’s Tomb, I was distracted the entire time I was exploring the dungeon because of the wyverns harassing me from above.

Tuk-tuk.

I looked at Lewis when I felt a tap on my shoulder his his his. There was a blue light in Lewis’ eyes.

Did you increase your eyesight by infusing an aura into your eyes?

I raised my right hand outstretched to signal a stop and looked at Lewis.

Lewis pointed with his left hand and spread out three fingers with his right hand.

There are three shapes.

Are we moving forward in earnest now, or are we just watching? I turned my head to the side and tapped the area around my eyes with my finger.

“Keep an eye on your surroundings.”

Everyone who was reflected in my right eye nodded and turned to look in the direction they were assigned.

It’s quick, quick.

“John. I can see a blurry shape on the right too…”

“Mister, this way too.”

We’re surrounded.

But there was no need to worry. One shot of Karina’s purification magic will wipe them all out. There was just one problem.

With what intentions did the owner of the Fog Cemetery, whose intelligence has increased through reality correction, surround us?

It may not be exactly the same as the game, but the foggy graveyard in the game was a place where undead constantly respawn. In fact, before killing the boss, there was no such thing as a safe zone.

The camp we created last night was made possible by using purification magic to make the surrounding area inaccessible to the undead.

Going back to the story, if the intention of the owner of the foggy graveyard is a wheel-to-wheel battle, it becomes very difficult.

Due to the nature of the Fog Cemetery, defeating the surrounding enemies was a real hassle. If they were just sending undead to us, there wouldn’t be a big problem…

“John, shall we use purification magic?”

“No. Save your strength.”

Build walls on both sides. With that alone, safety was secured except for the front and rear. The weakness of the monsters that exist in the Fog Cemetery is that they cannot do anything if you build a physical wall like this.

No matter how many there are, in the end, they are just miscellaneous mobs that are at the bottom of the monsters.

“Lewis will handle the front end and we will move forward.”

We still need time to decide whether that guy wants to engage in a wheel-to-wheel war, or if he’s just sending out guys at random.

We kept moving forward.

It took about an hour to return the zombies and skeletons that appeared in front of us back to the ground. I signaled a stop and looked at Lewis.

Lewis’ face was completely frozen.

“The sound is different than before.”

The sound of the ground shaking, not the sound of a weak cry or rattling. Since the only members of this place were zombies and skeletons, it was obvious who the owner of the heavy footsteps was.

You arrived sooner than expected.

But that too…

“…Everyone ready for battle. Sif and Millia, do not leave Karina’s side. Karina. Use purification magic right away. Lewis, grab your sword and prepare to fight. Lenny, I’ll leave the rear to you.

Elisa and Shuri prepare fire magic. “Viola, be prepared to throw reagents at any time.”

Give orders and observe the situation.

The boss of the Fog Cemetery. I wonder how strong it really is.

I took out the shovel hanging next to my backpack and stretched it out. With the sound of it fitting in my hand, a mithril shovel caught my eye. It sparkles even in this environment. It’s definitely mithril.

[Contractor, I feel magical power diagonally to the left.]

“Louis. “Look diagonally to the left.”

The vibration becomes increasingly stronger. Are you approaching? I floated a baseball-sized fireball on the palm of my hand.

“Rue. “Can you tell me the approximate location?”

[Um…Almost frontal based on the black kid? If you turn slightly to the right from the direction you are looking now… Ah, it is coming.]

I think I get the idea. I shot the fireball straight away. The sound of a fireball exploding briefly was heard as it disappeared into the fog. And the horrifying scream that echoed at the same time made me know that a fireball had landed.

“Elisa. Shuri. Use magic in the direction I threw the fireball.”

As soon as I could speak, two more fireballs flew in the direction my fireball went. Is this level 3 magic? This time, a louder explosion echoed in the air.

“!@*!#($&!!!”

“There it is.”

“…Please give me the address.”

Due to the purification magic combo that followed, the guy couldn’t come to his senses and fell down screaming at the top of his lungs.

“Okay, is it over?”

I shook my head at Shuri’s question.

“No. Unfortunately, that guy is not the real person.”

“Yes?”

It’s true that that guy was the boss, but he was more of a kind of alter ego. It has some fighting power, but it is infinitely weaker than the main body.

“They will continue to appear in the future, so everyone, don’t let your guard down.”

The tedious exploration resumed again. We quietly moved forward without saying anything.

During the day and a half we were moving forward, it reappeared five times. By the time he came out at the end, I had defeated him without saying a word.

But now that too is over.

“Now it’s just around the corner.”

[Isn’t magic a joke?]

The heart of the foggy graveyard.

We finally arrived at our destination.
