Episode 032 Elite and Suspicious Person is a Paper-thin Difference

"Good morning."

"Good morning."

I join Aki and have breakfast at the cafeteria.

"Where did you go yesterday? I couldn't find you right after school."

"I immediately dived into the dungeon."

"Wow, really. I envy you because your birthday is early."

An early birthday is an advantage for explorers.

You can dive that much faster.

But I haven't investigated it in detail, but there seem to be exceptions.

"It's not bad."

"Where did you go to the dungeon?"

"Umm, I went to the Shushima Dungeon."

"Huh!?"

When I responded, Aki screamed with his eyes wide open.

The scream echoes throughout the dining room and attracts the attention of those who were eating breakfast like ourselves.

Hey, give me a break.

I don't want to get any more attention since they already know I'm an explorer.

"What surprised you so much?"

"Didn't you hear on the news that there was a Dungeon Rebirth in the Shushima Dungeon?"

That's why I'm saying, what is a Dungeon Rebirth?

Is it such an exaggerated event that it makes the news?

Yesterday I was absorbed in choosing gifts for my sister and mother, so I didn't care.

"What is 'Dungeon Rebirth'?"

"You don't even know that?"

When I casually listened to him, Aki had a stunned face.

"I didn't look up that much."

"It's pretty famous, but it's okay. I'll explain it."

When I asked, Aki folded his arms and snorted and replied with a sloppy face.

"My best regards."

"Well, Dungeon Rebirth is a disaster that dramatically changes the structure of the dungeon, the strength of the monsters, the contents of the treasure chests, etc. The troublesome part of the Dungeon Rebirth is inside. Even if there are people, changes will occur regardless, and the people involved may die. The strength of the monsters may also change and strong enemies may appear. I often hear that explorers suitable for the rank of the dungeon before the reverse died when they encountered a stronger monster."

Hey, it would be hard to get involved in it.

I'm really glad I just fell into a slightly longer pit. The monsters remained E-rank, and so did the boss.

"Hmm, there's that kind of thing. Certainly when I left the dungeon, I was asked by some suspicious people if anything was strange. I fell into a pit and got out and then went home. It doesn't matter because they came, and I answered that there was nothing."

"Well, you were safe. And weird clothes?"

Talking about yesterday's events, Aki folded his arms and tilted his head and asked me.

"Hmm, a uniform that feels different from the Union staff."

"They're probably the Union's emergency response room. It's a super-elite group of people who are all B-rank or higher ranked explorers, right?"

It wasn't easy to explain, so it was a loose explanation, but Aki picked up on it and told me the true identity of those suspicious people.

Those suspicious people were an elite group.

The person who talked to me aws a completely perverted suspicious person.

Everyone didn't look that strong, but people don't look like that.

"That's right. They didn't even give me their names, so I thought they were suspicious and left immediately."

"It's a group that normally makes people happy."

Aki tells me that when I don't show much reaction, as if I was a little unfaithful.

"Even if you say so. It's more important to buy presents for my sister and mother with yesterday's income than that."

"What? You have a younger sister? Is she cute?"

Aki's reaction is good when I talk about my sister.

"Isn't it obvious that she would be cute?"

"If so, please introduce me."

Huh? What?

What did this guy say just now?

Is he going to reach out to my sister?

My wrath gauge inside me goes up.

"Hey. I didn't know you were a suicide applicant. Should I send a suspicious person approaching my sister who was just in the first grade of Junior High school to Hell?"

"No, no, I'll refrain from doing that!!"

When I asked with the best smile I could do now, Aki salutes and declines for some reason.

I wonder what it is.

I've just entered this elite school.

"Yep, yep, as long as you understand, you understand."

"Haha, do you change into another person when you talk about your sister?"

Hmm? What did he say?

"Did you say something?"

"There is nothing!"

Aki's cry echoed indoors again.

After eating breakfast noisily, I went to a school I wasn't used to.
