Chapter 64: Field Trip (1/2)
For the past several weeks, nothing noteworthy happened, yet I was kept busy enough to not have time to visit my family Disciplinary conated to school and training
The class I taught had a harder ti," which hat I decided to call it The whole aspect of focusing le point proved to be difficult for all of the aug a conjured spell was an even more arduous task for the conjurers
So far, out of the aug remotely close to what I had in mind As for the conjurers, only Kathyln succeeded in reabsorbing her spell and enhancing her body Even then, she only succeeded in aug her hand Feyrith was a close second as he was the only other student on the brink of success
My Deviant Magic Theory class had beenquite slowly as our professor explicitly explained that she would cover new material after we finished ourand we'd only gone through four weeks of school, it'd take another four weeks until she'd start going over what I wanted to know
"Are you excited for the class dungeon excursion this weekend?" Tess leaned in closer as she asked
The two of us, along with Sylvie, were inside the training roo her with assimilation By my estimation, Tess needed about one or two more weeks to fully assiic use would be very li the first three floors, right? I doubt we'll find anything worth getting excited over" I just shrugged
This Saturday, ere to have a one-night trip to the outskirts of the Beast Glades with our Tea Mechanics class Professor Glory received permission from Director Goodsky on the condition that ere not allowed to go past the third floor of the dungeon we planned on exploring
The dungeon was a minor one and a popular site for new adventurers since the mana beasts in the upper levels were only E class, so Professor Glory thought it would be a great way to have the class get in so mechanics practice
"Pshhh… You're no fun I bet you're actually really nervous that we'll be in the Beast Glades I heard about it a lot from Grandpa He says that it's filled with a lot of ers Grandpa said to never truly trust any source of infores" Tess got lost in her thoughts, fantasizing about how exciting our short trip was going to be
"We're going to be fighting against real ainst a couple in Elshi+re Forest while I was training with Grandpa but I heard mana beasts are different in the Beast Glades You know, eon too! That's so exciting!" Her eyes began to sparkle as she iround, surrounded byher a soft flick to her forehead, I woke up Tess from her dreamland "Just reht now and the assi to be coet full of yourself"
"O… I know, I know! Sheesh, you don't have to babyher forehead
"Do you reether in the sarin as Tess' face turned red immediately
"Kyu?" Sylvie tilted her head in curiosity since she hadn't been born when this happened
"What did you say again? Ahh!" Putting on a frightened face, I look atchildhood friend
"'A-Arthur? W-Well! You see… beasts will more likely appear if they notice you because they will see that you are a child Therefore, I propose that for our s-safety, that it would be better for you to c-co Tess
"Uuu! You asked for it!" She ju
"O! Hahaha~ okay! I'ive! Tess… hahaha… I'll stop!" Tears for in pain
"Kyuu!" 'Me too, I want to play too!' Sylvie hopped around us
Eventually, she caat my childhood friend, I noticed that her face was still red Realizing almost immediately what sort of position ere in, I couldn't help but get hot as well, as Tess lowered her head closer towell Virion will surely be happy" The voice caught the both of us by surprise and Tess iot off me while we distanced ourselves from each other in embarrassment
Director Goodsky walked up to us with an aot in without either of us noticing was beyond me but I couldn't hide the aardness inus soed the topic "Fufu~ how is the assi well! Art helped me a lot these past couple of weeks and I feel a lot better! I haven't been feeling any pain froic too much, I think I'll be okay!" The flustered Tess scrambled her words as she flailed her arms to hide her embarrassment
"She should be fully assimilated with her beast will in about a week or two," I clarified after cal myself
"H down in front of the still red Tess Gently placing her hand above Tess' stomach, Director Goodsky closed her eyes to sense Tess' mana core
After a brief ood I' the way I knew I could trust you, Arthur," she said toback up
"Where have you been these past couple of weeks though, Director? You were always in contact from what I heard, but I noticed you haven't been inside the acadeon the small cut she had on her other hand
"Ah, yes I've been away for soh, so co" Director Goodsky quickly covered her hand and gave h I have a lot of work to catch up on Be sure not to overexert yourself, little one Be especially careful while you are inside the dungeons One should never underestiently patted Tess' hair before disappearing with a wisp
"S-So what are your plans after this?" Tessia said, trying to break the aard silence that the Director had left us
"After classes, there's an e for the disciplinary co to be away from campus over the weekend We'll have to work on soency arises while we aren't here After that, I'll probably go back hoet back to ca in time to head out for the excursion What about you?" I said while leaning back
