Good morning, Sengo-chan.

"Nh... good morning. Earlier than usual today?

I came down from upstairs dressed like the usual Sengoku.

I scratched my stomach while stretching out and slowly sat in the seat where my breakfast was placed. Thousands of places where you sit and start eating like a cat are a little too defenseless, even though they live with adolescent high school boys.

"Today is a practical test day. Sengo-chan will also be in charge of the practical test of the second grade in the afternoon, right? Don't fall asleep again."

"... I'll try."

"If you sleep again, Ilonica will give you a salary cut."

"I don't like that. I'm gonna wake up."

"Good luck. Then I'll go now. When you eat breakfast, keep it on the water.

"Oh, wait a minute."

Hmm?

"I'll lend you this. Take care of yourself, okay?

With a sleepy expression, Sengoku tries to pull out the rose pink ring from his pinky finger and give it to Tenji.

The ring was a very valuable ring item that was lent to me when I fought the K'Jenbear and increased its speed by 1.75 times.

"Are you sure? Well, thank you for lending it to me."

"Yeah, good luck, Tenji Mom."

Well then, I'll go.

Ichihara ~

Every morning.

From one day onwards, the troubled tenge like my mother was limited to sleeping, but Sengoku began to call it "Tenjimama".

Conversely, Tenji treats a thousand townships as if they were children who only look younger when they wake up.

It's kind of like a naïve couple. However, the fact is that the employment relationship in the form of Tenji hired by Sengoku is also established in writing. Besides, they're just sharing houses. No more, no less.

Tenge carried the bag he had left on the sofa vigorously and left the house looking at the ring that he fitted happily. Sengoku stared at his back and slowly waved his hand and said, "Welcome again."

He stepped out of the front door and crossed onto a mountain bike, which was just standing there, and started running a one-way street that took 40 minutes.

Take a few turns in a less dense countryside and head out onto a slightly larger street.

Beyond Tenge's gaze, you can see the cute shape of a kitchen car that you are no longer familiar with as a friend.

(I did it! It's not crowded today. Lucky day)

Uncle's kitchen car is very popular around here, and if you miss the time, you'll be lined up for a few minutes. But it looks like none of them are lined up because they left home earlier than usual this morning.

Holding the bike in front of the kitchen car, he looks up at his tight face as he sits on the saddle.

"Good morning, Uncle!

"Oh, Tenge! Here you go."

"Thank you!"

My uncle remembers what Tenji asked for, and he had already prepared a vegetable shrimp sandwich and a special lemonade.

Immediately complete the touch-payment with the student notebook, and Tenge sandwiches the bag. Grab the lemonade with one hand and grip the bicycle handle again with an empty hand.

And that's where my uncle spoke to me.

"It's a test today, right? Good luck."

"Thank you! I'll be right there!

"Oh, come on!

Showing the muscular beauty that glimpsed through the apron, Uncle waved to the leaving tenge.

One-handed driving is dangerous, but people in this country don't care about such details.

Tenge sucks up the cold lemonade and pours on the exquisite acidity and sweetness.

"Uhm. It's still delicious today."

Interestingly enough, the lemonade here doesn't taste the same as it does all day.

We need surprises for people who come every day to change the type of lemon, change the origin of other ingredients, and change the amount.

Besides, it tastes great every day, so there are more regular people like tenge.

Often with lemonade to quench his thirst, Tenji desperately began rowing along a difficult slope in his school path.

I've been here for three months now, and Tenge is spending all his strength away from benefiting from stats except when he's in the dungeon.

Local training.

It may sound easier to hear just words, but not many Explorers spend so much time in Stoick every day.

If you acquire the physical abilities of an outsider as an explorer, you will remember the taste of the wine and often use it in everyday life.

If this steep slope also benefits from stats, it will climb in less than two minutes. A 40-minute bike ride to school may not take 10 minutes if it's bad. Some people don't need bicycles in the first place. Something like running faster.

But Tenge doesn't depend on it.

One of the teachings of Thousand Lands and Leon.

The Explorer's capital is his body, but most of it is his own body that he has from the beginning. Strengthens its strength even more when it benefits from its stats.

If you rely solely on the benefits, you will not be able to demonstrate the person's true ability.

Yes, Sengo was the first to teach Tenji.

"Alright, one more step!

Tenge hung the last spurt.

† † †

"Er, so that's the overview of the test. Do you have any questions?

In the 1-A classroom, my teacher, Megan, told the students.

When I arrived at school, I began explaining the exam in the morning. This is exactly what Pine told you a few days ago and makes you look as if other students knew.

Survival type test for entire 15th tier.

The hierarchy is dominated by Grade 4 monsters, followed by many Grade 5 monsters. They rarely leave the third grade or above, and even if they do, the teachers and students in the third grade or above who are vigilant around them will deal with it.

Of course, the exam is staffed with a significant number of teachers and excellent students for more than three years, who are told to call for help if something happens.

The scoring criteria will be scored on the time and ranking of the goal, the number and rank of monsters defeated, etc., and the final result will appear the next day.

(Well, at least one teacher per student would score it.)

Tenji thought so.

So far, there has been no detailed explanation as to who will determine the number and level of monsters defeated.

Until then, I've never heard of anything more than Chariot's stamp, even though they say there is an unknown state-of-the-art device that doesn't even know Tenji or Sengoku. That means you can think of someone who's always watching you close by.

A person who can monitor humans without sound or indication can only act as a professional Explorer in the middle of the 19th century. It's not just an Explorer, it's someone who specializes in roles like scolding and assassination.

(Did you invite them from outside? Well, it doesn't matter who. I only try to take the exam carefully so that I don't get too dizzy)

There is only one teacher in Majorca Escuela who has a vocation in assassination.

That's right, we can't cover all the fields by ourselves, so there should be only one way to get help from the outside. And since Pine had previously said that Mustah would take part in the exam, I'm sure of it.

"No questions," he said. Well, there's a school bus at the entrance, so get on the one you're ready for. Departure... in exactly 20 minutes. Until then, you're free to go ~ "

Ms. Megan closed the teacher tablet where the rules were displayed. Leave the classroom with a sleepy stretch.

Looking behind them, the 15 students here also stood up and started preparing for each.

"Tenge, let's stretch together!

"Fine. Let's go to the courtyard."

Pine quickly spoke to the tenge, which began to isolate itself.

Today, with the test, Tenji has been wearing an inner suit in his uniform since the morning. As a result, we avoided the hassle of changing clothes in the toilet as usual and went to the courtyard of the school by ourselves.

So Tenji and Pine had a careful preparation exercise for about 15 minutes.

Then grab your bag and your weapon and take the school bus at the entrance to the school. About five of the students were already on board, and the remaining eight were still not on board.

When the tent sat in the empty seat, Pine sat right behind it.

Stealth Voltecker, a first-class weapon in which Pine was his weapon, was removed from the weapon case and politely started polishing with a cross.

As he watched, Tenji decided to meditate with his eyes. Listen to the heartbeat to calm your mind and avoid nervousness and failure.

Then Pine stared at the iron sword she had brought in the tenge and asked.

"Tenji, did you still use that? I wish Chisato had bought me something better."

"No, I'm fine with this."

"Why? Are the Japanese still humble?

"No, it's not. This is a sword from a man I respect. [M] No, to be precise, I bought it myself, but it's still very important to me."

"If you say that, Tenji will die in the dungeon someday."

"I'm not going to die, never."

"So, Tenge's mysterious confidence. Well, let's do our best together."

We're not friends from here, we're rivals.

Pine wants to say that in the dark, and then spends less time talking about his spiritual unity.

Other students have already begun to unite in their own way.

There were eight other students who boarded the school bus with straw.

"Ahahaha, even a yellow swordsman can't die."

"No, I'm in fifth grade. You're going to cum like hell."

"Hey, there he is. Don't say it too loud, you might cry."

The eight gazes of mockery converged on Tenji.
