Chapter 73.
“Hmmm, done!”
Tenji watched closely as Pyne, sitting next to him, seemed to have grown tired of sitting and was itching to move her thighs and rub her buttocks several times during the lecture.
When Mr. Schultz left the classroom, she stood up vigorously and took a big stretch.
Mallorca Escuela generally has two lectures in one day.
Lectures begin at 8:00 a.m. on days other than Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays, and each lecture consists of 115 minutes. That lecture time is a bit long for high school students, and sitting all the time hurts their buttocks.
Then, after a 15-minute break, the following lecture, “Practical Dungeon Exercise,” begins.
“Come on! let’s go Tenji!”
“I’ll go change in the bathroom first.”
“Didn’t you wear your inner suit today?”
“Yes, it’s a little hot in this dungeon, and it’s hard for Japanese to wear inner suits in the morning. If it were cooler, I would have worn it in the morning.”
“Wow, Japanese people are so soft. Hurry up!”
“Yeah, sorry. I’m off!”
Tenji hurriedly pulls out a blue inner suit from his bag and heads for the nearby restroom.
There was a changing room, but it was located on the third floor, not on the first floor where the first-year students’ classrooms are located, so it was faster to change the bathroom.
And interestingly, this Mallorca resort dungeon has different seasons and climates at each level.
The first level is winter, with snow falling steadily. The second level is spring with a soft and refreshing breeze, the third level is summer with stillness and slightly higher temperatures than in Japan, the fourth level is autumn when the trees turn red to remind us of the coming winter, and the fifth level is the rainy season with weak rainfall throughout the year.
Even the lower levels are equipped with various seasonal and climatic conditions.
So, on the third level, where the school is located, the sun shone brilliantly every day, like midsummer. The climate felt a bit humid and hot for Tenji.
He had only been here a week, and as expected, his body was not used to it.
“Let’s get changed quickly.”
He put his hand on the door to enter the bathroom, but Tenji stopped while pushing the door open.
Through the door are the voices of two boys in the same class as Tenji – George McTwaine, a blonde, cool, thin, macho guy, and Demil Garcia, with asymmetrical all-back bangs – were heard faintly.
Reflexively, Tenji let go of the door and rested his back against the nearby wall. He continued hiding under his breath and quietly waited for them to disappear.
In the meantime, their conversation, vain and loud, reaches Tenji’s ears.
“Why is Pyne involved with that Japanese guy?”
“Ahh.. that’s it. I was wondering what kind of a great guy would be coming from Japan, a dungeon nation, that too on a personal recommendation, but it turns out he’s a fifth-grade explorer with “swordsman” as a calling, right?”
“I have no idea how such an individual got here.”
“I heard that guy …… lives with Chigo.”
“What’s that? …… is that serious? Chigo with a swordsman like that?”
“That’s what Pyne said. That’s probably why Chigo prepared the recommendation.”
“Damn, he wants to keep Chigo all to himself? I’d like to know if I should go and fight for her nomination.”
“Don’t do it. Unlike the U.S., retaliation is not favored here. You don’t want to make any cracks in your school life, do you? We finally got our ticket here. We’re not going to let it go just because of a bad move.”
“I agree. I certainly don’t want to go back to that pig farm-like facility. I’d rather be growing corn in the woods. But I can’t allow …… Chigo with him”
“Chigo is very popular, isn’t she? She’s cute, stylish, smells good, and super strong. He doesn’t deserve to live with her. He should go back to his country and suck on his mama’s tits.”
“It’s true, there aren’t many women in the world that good. I’m sorry to say …..but… My first love is Chigo. It’s what I call total love at first sight.”
“If you put it that way, it’s love at first sight for all the boys here.”
After hearing that much, Tenji turned his steps to the restroom a short distance away.
He is used to this kind of backbiting and such, so he is okay with it, but he wonders if there is anything he can do about this situation. This is one of the reasons why Tenji has yet to be able to make many friends.
In the first place, even Mallorca Escuela cannot prove Tenji’s unique calling, “Summoning Hell Beasts,” and Chigo and Leon have told him not to use his ability in public places.
A little farther away, in a private restroom, he quickly puts on his inner suit inside his uniform and then puts on his uniform again over the top.
And so he ran back to his classrooms.
“Sorry, sorry, Pyne!”
“You’re late!”
“Yeah, let’s go for a run.”
Tenji and Pyne were running toward the meeting place with Pyne, carrying the weapons bag containing the iron sword they had brought along with them on their shoulders.
On the way there, Pyne promised to buy uncle’s sandwich next time. Apparently, Pyne liked that sandwich very much.
— Sa Pobla Street, Fountain Plaza.
“Well then, let’s break into our usual groups and begin the practical exercises. Today, we should do exercises around the 8th and 9th levels. After that, disperse as you see fit.”
Quite a several students attended this lecture on practical dungeon exercises.
To begin with, these lectures are only given on a per-class basis rather than every two alternate days. And it is decided that each student will be accompanied by one senior student of third grade or above and one teacher.
With a maximum enrollment of 45 students per year, there will inevitably be close to 40 teachers.
What they learn in this lecture is about how to get around in the dungeon.
Juniors receive one-on-one introductory instruction with the support of senior students and teachers. Advanced students learn how to confront monsters with as little support as possible.
Teachers are then encouraged to be flexible in their choice of monsters and locations to promote student growth according to each student’s needs.
In short, it is a lecture in which students receive one-on-one tutoring with a teacher.
The fact that these lectures are held every two days is probably why Mallorca Escuela is so popular.
“See you later, Pyne.”
“Yes, don’t hurt yourself!
Pyne waved cheerfully and ran off to where her resident teacher was a short distance away.
Tenji went to the two people who were waiting nearby.
“Chigo, Fuyuki, here you are!”
“Hoi, hoi, hoi, let’s get going today!”
“Hmhmm, After all, Japanese people feel comfortable with each other, don’t they?. Nice to meet you, Tenji-Kun.
Of course, Tenji’s tutor teacher is Chigo Shiroushi.
Teachers can be nominated by students themselves, or teachers can nominate students. If there is no particular preference, or if there is a conflict of convenience between teachers or students, the school’s president will personally consider the combination.
Tenji had been nominated by both parties this time, so the pairing had been decided quickly. Chigo had won the right to exclusively coach Tenji for two years, so this was a matter that had been decided no matter who interfered.
It is said that numerous nomination offers came to Chigo, but she turned them all down for Tenji.
And – there was another Japanese person on this team.
“What was Fuyuki-kun’s first period?”
“Me? My class is a lecture about the lower levels of the dungeon. I had a little extra time afterwards, so Chigo-chan trained me for a while.”
“Oh, that’s what I meant. That’s why you were so sweaty and battered all morning.”
“Why? Were you thinking of something strange?”
“Well ……, no, that …….”
Tenji gives a figurehead look and smiles amiably.
Seeing this, Fuyuki could guess what Tenji was thinking in his adolescent state and chuckled unintentionally.
The lovely young Japanese man in front of him was Fuyuki.
He is a third-year student at Mallorca Escuela. He is using a study abroad slot at the Japan Explorers High School. He is a genuine genius with the highest future expectations among Japanese students.
This was his third year living here, and he was a really kind senior who took care of Tenji in any way he could.
His hair was dyed slightly chestnut, and a loose natural perm was his trademark.
He was very kind.
He is taller than average for a Japanese man, around the 170s. Still, his physique is more slender than Tenji had expected. According to him, he has a metabolism that makes it difficult to gain muscle mass.
“Oh, by the way, my father was worried about Tenji-kun. He also told you not to worry because he is looking after Maharu.” He said.
“Akito? I’ll call him later.”
“I’d appreciate it if you did. My dad is a worrier, so call him often if you want.”
“Yeah, I’ll do that next time.”
Fuyuki is the son of Akito Kurou, whom Tenji knows well ……, or rather, whose parents were both former party members.
Akito is one of the very reliable adults who always arranges for Tenji to work part-time as a luggage carrier, doing the intermediary work on the side of his bar.
Because of this, Tenji had known about Fuyuki for some time.
That said, Tenji knew more about Mallorca and understood that this was the best place to stretch himself.
It was no exaggeration to say that Fuyuki gave Tenji the idea about Mallorca.
“I’m going to train hard today,” Fuyuki said.
“Chigo-san, nice to meet you!”
“Let’s not get carried away, shall we, Tenji?”
Although Fuyuki is still a student and developing, he is said to already be at the level of a first-grade explorer.
That is why his words sounded so reliable to Tenji, who always dreamed of becoming a good explorer.
Chigo is a second-grade explorer by license, but her actual ability is said to be no less than that of Leon, a zero-grade explorer.
Despite being a student, Fuyuki is expected to become the fifth active zero-grade searcher if he keeps working hard.
Tenji is apparently a fifth-grade “swordsman,” but in reality, he has a special calling, [Hell Beast Summoning] which is even higher than the zero grade.
