NOVEL NEXT In the labyrinth academy, the classes are divided into respective majors and divisions where they learn to be proficient at their jobs under the guidance of teachers, striving towards their chosen path.
One of the important cornerstones of this class division is here. The school building for <Combat Division> is usually referred to as <Combat Building 3rd>. The freshmen who have chosen dungeon capture as their major.
Other dungeon capture majors have their own buildings, such as the <Gathering Division>, <Investigation Division>, or <Trap Dismantling Division>.
Rather, I think it would be more appropriate to call it the division of a school building than a class in itself, with the enrolled students being 20 thousand combining all grades.
I arrived at my designated building a bit late to see a bustling crowd of students.
The most n𝒐vels are published on With the world revolving around the dungeon's resources as an axis, there are many more students who enroll in dungeon capture. More precisely, it stood at the top among all the majors.
Thus, the students gathered here are naturally a lot, and so is the enormously big building to meet the demand.
Maybe I'm completely late, and it looks like it will take a hell of a time before my turn too. freewēbnoveℓ.com
What should I do?
As I was staring at the crowd in front of me with a pensive expression, someone suddenly called out to me.
The person was butler Celestine, who's also my attendant. It seems he was specifically waiting for me.
"Good morning, Zephyr-sama."
"... Ah, Celestine! Good morning. You look so novel in the uniform, I almost didn't recognise you there for a moment."
The white blazer and navy blue trousers Celestine is wearing are the standard uniform of the academy. Though this also looks slightly out of place on him, who usually wears a dashing butler uniform from top to bottom.
"Zephyr-sama looks good in the uniform."
"Really? Thank you. Speaking of which, Celestine is also in the combat division, huh? Since you're Butler, I thought you might be taking another major.
"Well, I'm the attendant of Zephyr-sama, and also a combat butler."
It doesn't seem like he is following me out of compulsion or anything. It wouldn't be any strange for him to be in another department since Celestine himself was a bonafide butler even before getting the job <Butler>. Either way, if he's fine with it, then that's all that matters.
"Zephyr-sama, please follow me. Class division has already been decided, so let me guide you to your class. "
"So fast!? You're quick at your work as ever, Celestine. "
With the grace of Celestine, I guess I don't need to plunge into the congested line.
On a side note, we were exempted from verification up to a certain degree since we acquired our jobs much earlier. No wonder why it's so quick.
I entered the building, following the guide, Celestine.
"That reminds me, what about the other members?"
"Certainly, they have already been taken to a class led by Shizu-san, Ester-san, and others. Zephyr-sama is the last one.
It's late here too, huh? No, I, the guild master, am just getting to work at my normal time. I'm not late.
"Ah, there was a bit of trouble when I was coming here."
"Oh my, is it fine now?"
"Yeah, probably. No problem".
I too wanted to know if "she" was all right, but anyway, I muddled my words to steer away from the topic.
Let's change it. So I decided to ask Celestine what I had been most curious about since a while ago.
"More importantly, can you now tell me the classes of other members they have been assigned to?"
"Yes, everyone is in combat division grade 1 class 1."
"Oh, perfect."
Everyone in Eden, minus Hannah, wanted to enroll in the combat division. And as they had desired, they safely got them in. What's more, everyone is in the same class, which just makes it more perfect.
Class division is determined by the type of student's job, their level, and grades. Only the best of the best students are enrolled in <Class 1>. The so-called merit system
As all the members of Eden are at level 30 or higher and have cleared away the beginner-mid dungeon at the bare minimum, they naturally are class 1 material. Maybe you can even say we pre-planned it. Forgive me, Hannah.
"We have arrived. This is Class 1. "
"Thank you for guiding me."
We've arrived.
This is the room I'm familiar with.
I was deeply moved inside, filled with my dreams for my academy life from here on.
Celestin gracefully opened the door for me, as I consciously straightened my back, and leisurely walked in.
"Ohh, You're finally here Zephyr! Geez, you're so late!"
"Morning, Zephyr."
The first to greet was Lana and Karua. Reacting to their voices, the whole class's attention turns to me.
There are around 15 people in the class, among which 9 are the members of Eden, excluding me and Celestine, while other 5 are the members of guild <Machos>, evident from their bulging muscles, prominent even in the academy's uniform. There's also one female student, though it's a face unknown to me.
Just slightly, but the classroom buzzed. Mainly from <Machos>.
"Hmm, is he the <Brave>?"
"The body looks slim but he does have quite impressive muscles."
"Yeah, he must have been training too."
"Here I was wondering what kind of guy he would be, but he seems quite OK. Let's try to talk with him. "
"Yoshһ, let's invite him for a muscle debate later."
Hey there, I can hear you. And what the heck is a muscle debate? I'm not going to join you guys. Absolutely not.
Apparently, the division for class 1 is far from over and only around half of them have been confirmed. Well, it's about the selection of the cream of the crop among freshmen, so the academy must have been serious too.
But I'm puzzled as to why the <Macho warrior> has also been included in their careful selection. However, I remembered how deeply seated the notion of <Macho warrior> as an extraordinarily high job is in this world's people's minds, so I guess it was inevitable.
Also, the <Macho Warrior> can also raise their level to an extreme level, apparently. In the earlier days, they even defeated the <Fatty Ghost> and cleared the <Ghost Cave Dungeon>. From what I heard, they were all at Lv35 in their job <Macho Warrior>. To be honest, I was so surprised I almost fainted. I was so surprised, it almost made me faint. (T/N: Macho warrior, formerly known as Berserk)
Well, that's why their levels are high and result wise, they also have cleared two beginner-mid grade dungeons, hence why they are selected for class 1.
I deliberately ignored them and headed to the spot where Eden's members were.
Well, I guess I can only pass the time by having a chit-chat until they finish assembling all the other students.
No way would I want to join a debate about muscles.
T/N : The reason why I changed Berserk to Macho Warrior is because in the starting of the novel, Zephyr has always called it as a troll job or something akin which as I have read was omitted in previous translation. Now that it's the beginning of a new arc, I think it's time to change it.
