Volume 11, Chapter 27: Into the Woodlands
Translator: Zhaernon
Under the influence of our powerful engines and all the staff with their own ghosts... No, it should be under the influence of enthusiasm. Even if our airship spares a long way at the beginning, it still aims at the goal before other classes have arrived. To land- the edge of the Krangaboo Forest, it landed.
Even the teacher in charge of registration was impressed by the speed of our airship. What would be the look on his face if he knew that we had reached the western end of the continent first and then back.
The one in charge of us was old man Manado from the logistics department. A guy who usually liked to drink tea inside his own small garden at the back of the academy. He is a guy whose tea level was higher than his magician level.
"The event period is one month from today, and you will be reading inside the Krangaboo Forest for a month. It's not a very large area, but you should know that this forest goes all the way north into a low valley, and if you're not careful you'll accidentally go through the Triangle Mountains, and then you might end up inside the Otto Forest on the opposite side of the elves, and then things will be troublesome, got it?"
I nodded at the old man's words, but I was thinking:
My son and the Elf Queen have fought each other anyway, and although a guy sneaked out after us, we now have a very righteous-looking elf doctor, Mishua, in our ranks.
Of course, it looks.
"Well, we're the Imperial Academy and we can't do inspections or anything like that, so the rules for this event are simple, just keep the range from the edge of the forest. Of course, you won't have to care about us detecting it, we can still do such things."
I could only laugh silently at this, if I flashed out, you can detect it?
"Well, old man Manado, we know all about such things, and we just want to know if we're ready to go now."
"Sure… but..."
The old man took a look at the forest and said. "Watch out for yourselves, the information is not very accurate but there is information that there are many outsiders in the forest. You have two princesses and many important people in your class, so… you understand what I'm saying, right?"
I laughed bitterly at his words.
Although this situation is known to me, what can I say? I think most of the people should not have the gall to attack the princess, but at most want to get the treasure before us.
Besides, even if they come to assassinate the princess, I can only say that I'm trying my best to protect my students and protect my friends, but I still can't vouch for anything.
"Sure, but then why don't you guys just give us some extra guards? Even if I'm able to take care of things if I run into trouble I can't take care of everyone, right?"
"It's not up to me to decide, and if His Majesty has an arrangement, we can't know about it, can we?"
"Also..."
I nodded and then looked to the students behind me, "As you heard, we might have some unexpected enemies besides that dragon this time, so what should we do?"
"Take out."
"Take out all of them."
"That kind of thing doesn't matter, whatever."
There were so few voices scattered in the class that they sounded lazy, but it felt like the old man's face changed when he heard them.
"Uh… that's fine, you guys know what to do. Alright, let's get started, y'all be careful."
"Yes yes yes." I said with a nod of my head.
Probably? I answered in my mind so.
----------------------loading-----------------------
Krangaboo Forest, this is the largest piece of woodland in the northern part of the empire, directly bordering the Monte Empire and the forest is in the deep ditch under the Triangle Mountain. There used to be countless people who entered the forest sea through there and never returned.
Well, let's talk about this kind of thing at that time, if someone is really a Lu Chi (person with poor sense of direction) a little lesson would be nice.
As for the Krangaboo forest itself, it was a forest that was lower than the surrounding area, with only one higher mountain in the middle. The mountain in the middle rose almost to the ground, and the surrounding forest was deposited in a forest that was foggy almost all year round.
The old man had just said that the rule was to move around inside the forest, this was to restrict certain nobles from staying inside the forest for a while and then going home, taking a bath, changing clothes and then proceeding, that would be completely meaningless.
But there is a kind of portable house made by using space magic, but the level is much higher than the storage space ring, after all, a portable house has to carry living things inside.
Well, it doesn't seem to be a problem for my team, because except for the two princesses, the rest of them seem to be good and can go a week without bathing.
One of them maybe I really don't know much about either, but that's all about it.
The one I'm talking about is Cornelia, our prospective Sword Lady, who seems to have been peeking around very curiously ever since she was 'kindly' invited and came from the airship, but it seems that she never knew what to say because of the face-saving issue, so she just kept listening.
"I say ah, Cornelia." I suddenly turned to her and asked.
"What… what's wrong?" She said with some constraint.
"Sorry to catch you here all at once, but you know, it was so hard to find your tracks before, we awaited a lot to find your tracks, well, forgive me."
"Oh… right, what the hell are you guys doing? You're not going to class, are you?" She thought about it and asked.
"Well, we're going to trouble a dragon and take its treasures along the way."
"A dragon..."
Suddenly, her expression froze.
"What's wrong?"
Was it too much of a surprise? After watching her stare at me for a moment, I reached out and shifted in front of her.
"Hold… sorry." She shook her head.
"I'm just… so surprised. A Dragon..."
Her eyes suddenly became sharp.
"I've been looking for it for a long time!"
