37 Journey to Maka Town
The dean was angry.
"Patrick, You bastard!" The tyrannical heat coming from his body, many fires shaped like spear, ball, and many things formed and charging at Patrick.
Yes, Patrick in his mouth is Cornel's teacher.
"Ah...." Patrick screamed. He was pinned down with this many fires.
The dean burned Patrick's hand. He was angry at him. How could a senior like him make a move to a junior like his student, especially since already treat Alex like his own son.
"Argh..." Patrick screamed in pain. "You.. you burned my hand"
Hand for swordsman is their life. So, Patrick whose main hand was burned, can't become a swordsman anymore.
"I won't let you off" Patrick glare hatefully.
"Hmph, since you won't let me off, then I will just kill you here to avoid future problems" Now he burned Patrick.
"Ahh....no no don't kill me" He pleaded. But the dean ignored him. Patrick was burned to ash.

The dean was overbearing. He wanted to kill someone, he kills. Even though Patrick was a rank 7 swordsman as well as a teacher in the academy. There is no one who dared to give a voice of discontent. Not even the teacher. If not they will trigger the dean anger to themselves. They just practically asked him to kill themselves.
"Alex you okay?" he comes to Alex.
"Yes teacher, only a few internal injuries."
"Let's go to my office. I will try to refine the restoration pill for you." The dean took Alex, Alicia, and Firia away.
Before he refined the restoration pills,
"I still have 4 restoration pills with me" Alicia said.
"I also still have 1 restoration pill" Firia said.
"Since they still have, you take it first" the dean said.
"Thank you" Alex take the pills, after a few hour recuperation. He went back to full health.
"Teacher, I want to make a request"
"Oh... say it"
"I want to dive into the dungeon."
"..." He not too shocked with this request from Alex. He thought after Alex received that sword wave from Patrick, he suddenly has the drive to get stronger. So he wanted to go to the dungeon.
He managed to speculate half the truth. Alex wanted to get stronger, and the way for it is to upgrade the gacha system. And for that, he wanted to search gacha tickets. The dungeon was the best place to get them. beside he can't get stronger with leveling up. He was realized, the only way to protect is to become strongest. That's the only way to protect his family and friends.
"Up to you then, since you all have two months of holiday. But only for one month"
Alex confused. Why he can only dive for one month. The holiday is for two months and...
"Look at this pile of ingredients. Are you going to work me to death, refining this many ingredients" The dean continued.
"Ah..." He just remembered, he originally wanted to refine rank 2 pills. But this desire make him forget about this matter.
"Yes, I will only dive for one month" He was ashamed.
"Alright, just rest for today." The dean dismissed them.
The trio left the office.
"Alex, I want to follow you to the dungeon," Alicia said.
"Me too" Firia added in.
Alex shook his head. "I will go to the dungeon alone"
"But" The two were reluctant.
But Alex determined to go alone. "Just this time. I will refine a pill for you two after I'm done"
The two pouted. This pill was a big temptation for them. all the pill Alex give to them was a top-notch pill. They reluctantly agreed.
"Be careful"
"Yes. You two too enjoy your holiday."
Even though Alex said 'holiday', The two already decided in their hearts. They will use this time to get stronger, as they didn't want to be outdone by Alex.
The next day, Alex searching for a caravan to Maka Town. He decided to dive into the dungeon nearby which is a dungeon in Maka town. He found one caravan to go there.
The leader is a middle-aged fat merchant. He paid for him.
The merchant already makes a request for protection from the adventurer guild.
The protectors were a five-person group. they are a group called black spider. They have an average rank 2 strength with a rank 3 leader. The journey wasn't long, only two days away and the roads weren't dangerous. So the merchant didn't request for high strength party.
The first day went well they didn't encounter any monster or bandit.
On the second day, Alex chatting with the merchant. But suddenly he frowned.
Because he saw a pack of wolves. The merchant saw Alex suddenly frown, he confused.
"Wolves pack" he points at the merchant's back. The merchant looking at the direction he pointed. His face immediately becomes pale.
"Wolves" He screamed. He scared because the wolves pack contain around a hundred wolves. A small group like him would be collapse if they attack.
Alex scanned the power of these wolves. The wolves mainly a rank 0 monster, and a few rank 1. He relieved.
The five adventurers were pale. Though they have killed a pack of wolves before. But it's only twenty wolves and they fought a hard battle with them. but this time the pack was more than five times size than the previous wolves pack.
They want to run away. but Alex immediately said,
"Stop! Look carefully, the wolves pack look like they are migrating. And if you observe them carefully they are thin and exhausted"
They stopped. They carefully observe the wolves pack. What Alex said was true.
"That's right, the wolves are exhausted. They should be easy to kill" the party leader said.
They went to the battle position. Alex observed them.
"Two vanguards, one archer, one mage, and one scout. A balanced team." He muttered.
The wolves pack noticed their group. They sent a few wolves. Within a few minutes, the wolves were killed. This time all the pack charges at them.
The adventurers have a pale face. They underestimated the wolves. Though the wolves are exhausted, they forgot these wolves were hungry. Because of this hunger, their ferocity was multiple times more.
'brak!'
One of the vanguards dropped his shield. "No. This is impossible. We will die here."
Alex frowned seeing this. He went to the top of the carriage.
"Mr. Alex?" The merchant was confused. 'is he going to escape?' he thought.
Alex draws his sword. He infuses it with mana. He swings his sword horizontally.
'Flame sword wave'
A beautiful horizontal flame sword wave was fly to the pack. Before it managed to land to the ground. The sword wave managed to pass a few ten wolves. The wolves that were passed by the sword wave were split into two.
'boom!'
When the sword wave landed on the ground, it exploded. After the fog was cleared away. the wolves were scared to him. fr eewebnovel.com
The adventurers and the merchant was shocked. Because this attack alone managed to wipe half of the pack.
"Scram!" Alex shouted. The mana from his body was out. This is a difference of one big realm between the body tempering stage and the qi gathering stage.
"Aoooo!" the leader roared. The pack retreat. The leader makes his pack leave, if not, seeing Alex he determined if they still charging at them. Alex will wipe them out.
Alex didn't want to wipe them out. After all, even they are a monster, they still were living beings. Their condition wasn't good, they are thin. They must be didn't eat a few days. So he decided to spare them.
"Sir Alex. Thank you very much for helping" the fat merchant said. Even his tone becomes polite. If you notice, before he called him with mister but now he called him with Sir!.
Alex shook his head, "I am also a member of this caravan. If the group was attacked, it's natural to help each other."
"Thank...thank you sir Alex. Without you we will be killed." The party leader said politely.
"As I said, it's natural to help each other. Let's go, if not we might not arrive before night come"
"Ye...yes" the group starts to move again.
The group starts picking up the pace. They manage to arrive at Maka Town just before the sunset.
Alex said goodbye to the group. The merchant wants to give the fee back to Alex as thanks but was reject by Alex.
Alex went to the inn a bit far away from the dungeon because all inn near the dungeon was full.
"Hello, do you want to stay at our inn?" a 15 years old young woman. Though this young woman was plain, her body still great. The curvature was placed in the right place, many wills claimed this woman has a sexy body.
"Yes, I want to stay for a month"
"One day is thirty copper coin. So for a month nine hundred copper or nine silver."
Alex was astonished, the price was three times the inn in the capital city with the same quality.
"This price is reasonable. If you go to the inn near dungeon the price will be much higher." She often with this kind of person. So when she looked at Alex's astonished face, she knows Alex never go to a kind of dungeon town.
"Ah... I will rent of course" Alex snapped from his daze. He still has a few gold coins left from Zircodina's king. He never spends so much. Especially for a weapon since he got all of them from the system. He secretly thankful to the system.
[Your welcome Host]
'.....How can you know the system'
[I'm part of you Host, of course I know]
'then do you observe me like 24/7'
[Of course, nothing escape from me] the system brag.
'..... No no no, give me my privacy back'
[Can't do Host. After I linked with you, this bound to happen]
'&*%*&%' he cursed.
[Love you too Host]
Back to the room somewhere far away, the woman still continues typing something.
She sigh, "Hurry up get stronger and come to meet me. Darling, I really miss you"
--
Back to present,
"One month is it, that nine silver coin. How about your meals? It's five coins a day"
"No need. I will rarely come back to the inn as I will stay mainly in the dungeon."
"Oh... Have you registered in hunter guild?"
"No, I haven't"
"Then you should register there first before going inside the dungeon. There is a special service for the one who wanted to go inside" she advice. She often with this kind of people, newbie to the dungeon. Many of this newbie, ignorant of the danger inside the dungeon. They were arrogantly confident with their strength.
"Thank you for your advice" He thanked her.
"This is your room key, the room is on the second floor. The number was written in your key." She was surprised, Alex didn't seem that ignorant.
"Thank you" Alex went up
"Hope you can safely come back" She muttered. People like Alex was rare.
Alex went to his room. The room was simple, one bed, one wardrobe, one table, and one chair. Alex didn't care though, he will rarely come back to here. So this place just enough for his sleep.
