A Sleepy Summoner Wants To Rest

chapter 24



24 – 1. Academy (24)

#24

I was able to achieve the initial goal of acquiring skills and earning Kalion’s experience points.

It was because Kalion moved with a stage cannon more than I thought, but looking at the results, the level was raised well and the skill was also raised wildly.

However, if I continued walking around the [Goblin’s Lair] Like this, it seemed that this guy’s nose and stubbornness would only grow higher.

This guy needs to go through more hard work.

He met a goblin weaker than himself as an enemy for the first time and thoroughly trampled it. He got drunk on his pride and began to look down on the dungeon itself.

The proof is those grievous wounds.

A significant amount of mana was consumed during recovery. Perhaps, I myself have lost my strength. If I hadn’t caught the boss and cleared the dungeon, there would have been a high probability that I would have been slashed and killed.

I could never forgive him for acting like that against only goblins.

‘[The canyon where the scales are hidden]… The enemies are too strong.’

I needed a place where I could fight on an equal footing with this guy and at the same time arouse the awareness of the labyrinth.

He probably doesn’t even understand why he’s being scolded. Even so, the reason I lowered my head was because I was in a bad mood and at the same time I had Growl, who wasn’t there at first.

Because we have the superiority of overwhelming power, he bows down. Conversely, he will begin to become infinitely arrogant and conceited towards those weaker than himself. If it’s a dragon, it’s a dragon, but I didn’t choose him because I wanted to see that bad side.

“…Decided.”

I didn’t go back into [The Goblin’s Lair], But came out and headed for the D-rank dungeon.

Guys are treated as skills anyway, so even if they don’t go in separately, they’ll be moved together when I move the dungeon, so it’s neglected. Rumbling around makes the narrow hallway more complicated for no reason.

E-Rank dungeons are mostly places to show proper combat, battles with monsters, and despair brought about by the variety of dungeons, but starting from D-Rank, they deepen on what is called a dungeon.

To be honest, even if you don’t have skills up to E rank, it is operated at a level where you can clear it to some extent by rolling your body. There is no idiot who didn’t notice that at the beginning of [Goblin’s Lair] At the point where the designated number of monsters was 20.

But D rank is different. If you can’t understand and use this star’s unique mystery called skill, it will change dramatically to the point where it’s considered impossible to clear it.

Among them, the D-rank dungeon I chose is the [Gladiator’s Arena].

As the name suggests, all battles inside this dungeon are 1v1 only. In terms of format, it can be seen that it is close to the tournament I went through this morning, but this place does not give you dungeons or breaks, and when you defeat an enemy, the next one appears.

In this way, the strength of the enemy increases as you go up step by step.

At the end, an opponent of a level that you cannot match will inevitably appear. That is the boss of [Gladiator’s Arena]. This is all the information about the dungeon I found out.

One thing to note is that no matter how much you join a party, it is only one person who has to fight in the end, and furthermore, the opponent of a person who fights as a ‘player’ will persistently aim for the weakness that the ‘player’ can overcome.

In a nutshell, it can be seen as entering after revealing one weakness to the enemy from the beginning.

Of course, since the rank of the dungeon is D, the power of the final boss will not be higher than D, but there is no change in the fact that the enemy is annoying just by holding a counter card.

The only thing you can use your wit against such a guy is skill and wisdom.

No matter how many counter cards you have, in the end it is a ‘weakness that can be overcome’. If you can overcome your weaknesses by understanding your skills and conversely enticing and using them, you can definitely win.

I hope that in this dungeon, Kalion can recognize his own weaknesses and show that he can improve. If that doesn’t work, I’ll have to think seriously about whether I should really change my direction.

I believe in the intelligence of the guy who has risen to 6 this time.

As soon as I entered the dungeon without hesitation, the scorching rays of the sun hit me with the stinging air unique to the parched earth.

“Bruise”

Growl, who was sitting behind me, approached me and blocked the sunlight. At the same time, looking at the surroundings and checking whether there were enemies or not, it was an action that showed the skill that they had been together so far.

As expected, one sense is good. With this, I’m really surprised that I have 5 intelligence.

Actually, Carlyon lowered her body and was busy hissing, wary of her surroundings. That’s not bad either, but since there’s an answer sheet with a perfect score right next to it, isn’t there something that makes you look even worse?

I know the two are different, but I keep comparing them. I wondered if I was overthinking it, but realizing that even this was too emotionally immersive, I shook her head to get rid of the thought.

[A new challenger has entered!! Everyone, please welcome them with a round of applause!]

Wowaaa!!!!

Unusually, a loud shout echoed along with a system message that felt unusually emotional.

Cheek! Baba Baba! Pampabaaam!!

Thump! Thud! Thud! Thud!!!

At the same time, the ground shook as a large number of people stamped their feet in line with the sound of music.

Carrion, frightened by the sensation he felt for the first time in his life, snuggled up behind me, and Raul, perhaps remembering the Battle of the Nightshade, bared her teeth and began growling low.

[Come on! Then the challenger needs an explanation!? Look! Hurry!! And fight!!!]

Looking at it now, it seems that the message is not from the system, but from somewhere through amplification. Yeah, there’s no way the system could speak so colorfully.

The voice that I heard in my mind was of an ambiguous range in which neither gender nor age could be inferred, and once I heard it, the contents mysteriously remained in my head, but it was like a miracle that I couldn’t remember the voice I heard.

Pang! Phut!

In line with the atmosphere, a real system appeared with firecrackers.

+

[Event occurred!]

[You have entered the greatest arena of the empire, which determines the true gladiator.]

[Use your achievements and wit to the fullest to reclaim your place as champion here.]

[But be careful. All the gladiators here are the only strong ones who have survived!]

[Main Event – Recapture the Champion.]

[You can get a reward if successful.]

[If you fail, you get a chance to try again with the stigma of a loser.]

+

“Event Dungeon”

It is a special type of dungeon where you can leave the dungeon at will once the event is over, regardless of success or failure.

Unlike quest-type dungeons, there is no quota to achieve, so it looks easy at first glance, but more vicious traps and harsh restrictions are attached.

Compared to this dungeon, the vicious trap is [Exposing the challenger’s weakness], And the only harsh restriction is [Fight without a break].

The reason why such a special dungeon is inside the academy is because there are quite a few people like Carrion who have been full of nonsense about topics that they can’t even take care of themselves.

Professors and teachers keep a close eye on those guys before throwing them into this dungeon.

Those with broken noses naturally get angry, and they will direct their anger towards the teachers who threw themselves here, but can a newbie’s childish cry reach them?

On the contrary, if you can’t erase the engraved [Stigma of a loser], It’s fortunate that you won’t be threatened with expulsion.

Now, you might be wondering what the [Stigma of a loser] Written in the conditions for defeat is, but the effect is simple.

While that mark is on, all levels and skill experience points are locked.

Of course, the experience itself is accumulated. It just means that while that brand is stamped, they will not lead to a level increase.

There is only one way to remove that stigma.

The goal is to defeat all champions with one’s own strength. If that happens, the [Stigma of a loser] Will disappear and you will be able to obtain equipment that will help you grow.

Of course, the reward is bigger and better if you attack the champion from the start without being marked with [Stigma of the Loser].

Still, the taste of mulberry that you feel the moment you remove the [Stigma of a Loser] After earning victory after diligently working on the attack will be beyond your imagination. It’s a bonus that the hardships of hardship are fixed and the temper that is beaten by the f*ck is fixed.

“Graul is waiting. Carlion you go”

“Gureureung?”

As if he was accustomed to it, Graul settled down in a shady place and rolled up his body so that I could lie down comfortably.

I was full of energy when I saw him jumping around and being happy.

Anyway, it’s only now that I can have such feelings. I’ve already eaten my heart out. It was the same act as dropping a young lion down a cliff, but he had no doubt that this would lead to the growth of Kalion.

“…Ah, it’s a little bit, but I think I know how it feels for the teaching staff to throw a troubled child into this place.”

There is a magical dungeon where the results of whether or not you are regenerated by simply pushing it in. How do you survive without doing this?

I covered my face with both hands and went to where Growl was sitting and lay down. Maybe it’s because my body has grown, so now I can lie down and still have enough left over.

“Go”

I couldn’t look at that pure joy anymore. I sent Karion moderately with a chin.

And find out what kind of condition you are in right now.

Irresponsible, if irresponsible, but I just want you to know that this was the best for me as I couldn’t find a more efficient way to teach a gecko.

He’ll know if he doesn’t like it if you hit him with his body~ It’s not that he’s a jintobaegi who sticks in until he can really hit it with his body.

“…Cheer up”

If you don’t die, I’ll give you a chance to live. If you ask for advice, I will gladly listen. So get to know yourself properly. Otherwise, you won’t even be able to stand on the starting line.

I watched Kalion’s back running excitedly toward the back of the arena, hoping he’d notice it as quickly as possible and less broken.

That’s how the brainpower I invested was meaningful!

You have to prove that it wasn’t just taken to increase the mana! Stay strong Carrion. I’m eating popcorn here.

“Oh, it starts right away”

Thump!

As soon as Kalion entered the line drawn in the center of the arena, the wide-open iron grate fell, raising dust. At the same time, the music, which was like a bright and upbeat marching song, changed into a sharp, tearing rock-like tune.

I naturally admired the change that made the listener feel nervous and at the same time made the viewer’s heart beat. This is more serious than you think. It is delicious to see.

Looking at this, I could definitely feel that this world is closer to games than novels or comics. Of course I wasn’t sure.

Because in my previous life, I was full of novels about games such as VR and virtual reality. Furthermore, novels such as being possessed and being reincarnated in the world of games and cartoons were the most popular.

You can see that my current situation is similar to that. I don’t even know what this world is, and I don’t even know why I was chosen for this.

[This challenger is amazing! A dragon! aaa!!]

[The opponent against him is oh oh oh… Goblin!! It’s not just a goblin either!]

Doo Doo Doo!!

A hologram floated in the air along with fireworks.

[Red Cap, a wandering Red Cap who had a notorious reputation in the Great Forest of Azure!! !!]

A goblin wearing a red hat appeared as if running through the red forest made of holograms.

The guy skillfully spun around in the air and shot the crossbow on his back into the sky. At the same time, swinging the scythe on his waist and cutting off all the arrows he shot, he landed lightly on the ground and put on his hat again.

“Kerreuk”

[The named Has appeared.]

It’s gorgeous once it appeared.

I was not taken aback by the system message. This is because the monsters that appear here are compressed to the extent that the number is limited, and all appear as names. Thanks to the identity of the dungeon as an arena, there was a strong feeling that it focused on quality rather than quantity.

Perhaps the dungeon maker who modified the academy’s dungeon wanted to make that point stronger, so he remodeled the dungeon in this way.

“Let’s see how well they fight”

On the contrary, it went well because he was my opponent. No, rather, it might be because of the current Carrion that such an opponent came out. To Kalion, the impression that goblins were insignificant beings that could be trampled on was strong.

That arrogance that appears implicitly is Karion’s greatest weakness.

Furthermore, the fact that the guy wearing the red cap is a Who can use both long and short distances at the same time is probably included in the weakness of the physical type, Carlion. The last time I met Carlion was full of arrows.

Perhaps he met a goblin who used the bow he saw in the lair before. It is highly likely that Sif, the goblin, was also led by Carrion’s rampage in the first place.

Because reconnaissance is the first thing in a group to encounter an enemy and warn of danger in advance.

“How are you going to fight?”

Perhaps they will force a land attack.

“Grrr!”

Unsurprisingly, Kalion, who had been plowing the ground with his hind feet like a buffalo on the verge of charging, started charging like mad. The red cap snarled leisurely even after seeing it, aimed and fired the crossbow.

“Gee!”

Carlion’s scales began to grow and sparkle accordingly. Its appearance, like an armor, resembled that of a dragon.

I used the skill [Yeokjin].

Usually, evil is the only weakness among the scales possessed by dragons. The skill [Yeokjin] Has the effect of simultaneously strengthening all scales except for the Yeokin located on the body as if to protect against such weaknesses.

It’s a bonus that it can be used as a weapon on its own as the scales that grow out like armor are very hard.

Ting! Ting!

Seeing Kalion lightly deflecting the flurry of arrows, Red Cap Valver took a step back with familiar footwork and reloaded the crossbow as if he didn’t mind.

Ting! Ting Ting!

Carlion chased after the fleeing enemy, and Red Cap lazily avoided it and fired an arrow.

Tung!!

If this continues, the endless war of attrition will continue. From there, a particularly heavy sound resonated from the fourth arrow shot by the Red Cap, who was leading the situation as if giving a variation.

The impact forced Kalion’s feet to the ground and reduced her speed as well. If you look closely, you can see that unlike the other arrows, the red fourth arrow pierced Kalion’s scales.

It seems that he has a skill that allows him to fire conditionally enhanced arrows. I naturally clicked my tongue at the prepared movement as if I was thoroughly targeting Kalion’s weakness. If it continues like this, it will be a battle of attrition and Karion will lose.

“Gureureung…!!”

Perhaps he noticed it too, he sped up the speed with which he moved his feet.

Thump!!

Every time I stamped my feet, the sound of the ground shaking resounded like an earthquake. At that moment, a strange light began to flash in Kalion’s eyes, and the scales grew larger, nearly doubling their original size.

At the same time, I realized that Karion used the skill [Dragon Blood] From the faint magical energy. Despite being a sub-dragon, the dragon’s power exists in Kalion’s blood. Temporarily activating it and using it is the power of the skill [Dragon Blood].

Thanks to the dragon’s latent power, Kalion’s size began to increase. It’s normal for the speed to decrease that much, but strangely, instead of slowing down, Kalion’s speed started to get faster and rougher.

“Keruk?”

Feeling strange, the Red Cap shot the arrow even faster, but the arrow fell head over heels without even scratching Kalion’s scales. The same was true of the fourth red arrow.

The feet of the red cap who couldn’t keep up with the sudden change became urgent. As if entering the gap accurately, Kalion kicked the ground with full strength in his legs.

Kwaaang!!!

The ground exploded and a huge body fell from the sky. The distance between the two narrowed in front of their noses, and Red Cap panicked and fired an arrow. Soon after, he gave up on the fact that it was useless for Kalion and drew his sword as it was to respond.

Booung

That judgment was right, but wrong at the same time. The guy should have chosen his evasion option before drawing his sword. A dull sound pierced the wind from the other side.

Future!!

At the same time, the red cap’s head was shattered by a sharp wave of air. The rest of his body trembled once and then fell over and began staining the ground red.

The cause is undoubtedly because of Kalion’s tail, which has sharp scales growing like armor. Seeing that the form handling his tail was unusual, it seems that he liked it quite a bit after that and used it often.

[Don’t worry!! Ah-ryong is the winner! It’s a dragon!!]

Wowaaa!!!

“Grrr!”

As shouts resounded in line with the commentary, the guy, drunk with victory, stood up on his two legs and started roaring. I felt uncomfortable with that look. It looks like he’s still using his magic power. Can you keep it that way?

The more powerful the skill, the greater the amount of mana consumed. If a guy with a low IQ level used magic like that at random, he would quickly run out of magic power.

“Wr…?”

As expected, the disenchanted man’s body began to shrink in real time. The victim could not adapt to the sudden loss of power and stumbled to his seat.

My eyes wandered here and there, probably because my head was spinning. This is a typical malaise phenomenon.

Even in that situation, it’s worth recognizing the mental strength of blinking your eyes and shaking your head as if you’re trying to shake off your dizzy mind, but if you had unlocked the skill in the first place, you wouldn’t have had that experience.

And this dungeon is not nice enough to miss that opportunity.

[Continued, the next player!! Likewise, it is famous as the bad boy of the Azurakt Great Forest! !!]

Jumping! Thud!!

“Guaaa!!!!”

The door opened and a huge green-skinned giant entered. A huge body filled with a height that seemed to exceed 2 meters could be described as massive.

Above all, the deformedly large arm, as if to symbolize tinnitus, was thick enough to be incomparable to a moderate log.

Looking at the appearance, it was like seeing a gorilla whose real skin color was different.

But his race is none other than an Orc. That pig-like head is proof of that. I don’t know where such a mutant like that came from, but it was so bizarre.

“Among the differences in compatibility, the next is a showdown of the same power.”

Of course, not all strength is the same.

This guy is a pig like a gorilla, but first of all, he belongs to the same subhuman as a goblin, and is close to a humanoid. Physical conditions such as height and size also seem to favor the opponent.

The weakness that the enemy attacked this time is probably the ‘limit brought by the form of the beast’.

There must be advantages brought by the body of a monster, but there are many more advantages brought by a humanoid. By gaining an advantage through this, he must be trying to defeat Kalion.

“Not bad.”

On the contrary, it will come as a great threat to Carlion, who has exhausted his magic while dealing with the Red Cap and is in a daze. It’s okay even if you lose like this. With this incident, Carlyon will naturally realize the danger of mishandling his magical power.

When I think about Amman, choosing this place seemed like a good choice.

“Gureung…Greung…”

I said coldly to Kalion, who looked at me and looked at me with a pitiful gaze, perhaps because he thought this was not a bit.

“You chose it. Face it straight The enemy is coming.”

“That, grrr…”

“Guaaa!!!!!”

Seeing my unwillingness to change, Kalion forced his shaky body to rise and ignited a mixture of fleshly hostility toward his big-fisted gralt.

I can’t be angry with me, so I’m trying to vent my anger at him as an alternative. The look was cute, but it wasn’t ridiculous. Dude, it seems that you still have a long way to go to come to your senses.

‘At most two people’

Even if you push it to the limit, it will stretch out to the point where you won’t be able to deal with more than two people. The reason why he looked so tired was because he had lost his magic power, not because he had lost his stamina.

If you get a fatal wound later, aim for that time, put in Growl for a while, restore it, and then roll it again.

If you say you will, stick to it to the end. There is no room in between for sympathy or any superficial feeling. Being lenient in the cold and tight discipline like iron blood is only enough for me.

“Wrong!!!”

“Gooooo!!!”

Goong! Googge!!

Getting up on his own two feet and bumping into a giant palm rushing to crush him, Kalion began to use his tail to withstand the struggle.

Is there really no place to buy popcorn?

Since ancient times, the most fun way to watch fights is to watch them fight, unless the level is really high.

Looking at Kalion who never backs down and never bends even though he is sweating profusely, I put my chin on my chin and slowly stroked Growl’s head with the other hand.

The soft yet rustling feel of the hair slipping through my hands was truly addictive. After a long time of leisure and amusement, I relaxed my body more and buried myself in Growl’s arms.

Ah, good.

I never thought the day would come when I felt peaceful in the dungeon. I could feel Graul’s stinging gaze looking at me from the side, but I ignored it. Don’t worry. As long as you’re doing it right, you won’t roll like that.

So behave yourself well. Got it?
