＃Returner’s Notepad Episode 86

Dungeon

[Inventory (5×5)]

“this… … .”

I thought quietly. No, why 5×5 and not 3×3? Is this also because of embodiment? I heard that the [dungeon system] reflects each individual’s characteristics.

Let’s think again.

Now my dantian is beating like a heart, pumping magical power throughout my body. It makes my body stronger.

Perhaps, Perion will be passively involved in that process. This means that the Perion in the memory of “Notepad” is being embodied along with my magical power.

It is the cause of my rigid body.

then.

The system of this [dungeon system] also reflects these characteristics, a strong system similar to a rigid body? Strong system? What is it that is amplified like this?

I don’t know the details. I don’t even know what I’m thinking.

I think I’ll have to meet the developer and ask about this.

“What are you thinking like that?”

Just then, Elise asked. I shook my head.

I don’t know if it’s a bug or a real problem, but it’s not good to get caught for no reason. If it’s for my benefit, I should keep my mouth shut.

“eat. “It’s all cooked.”

I handed him a skewer. Elise took it and took a bite. I asked while taking a bite.

“how is it.”

Elise just chewed. Omulmulmul… … . Mutter… … . Slowly on purpose, like a cow chewing its cud.

“How do you feel?”

I just chewed. Mew mul mul. Mumbling.

“Let go of the tastelessness.”

When I tried to reach out, he stopped me.

“… … “It tastes good.”

Elise admitted. I nodded with satisfaction and checked the other [dungeon system].

There are several unique dungeon systems.

Representative examples include [Inventory], [Mini Map], [Luck], [Player Store], [Efficiency], etc… … Among them, I tried turning on [Mini Map], which I didn’t need to turn on because of the SZX-9500.

“In the past… … “I don’t think it was like this.”

I looked at him with very serious eyes.

The minimap was very detailed.

Originally, the basic Noganghwa, or ‘Nogang minimap’, would have been a flat background with barely distinguishable heights and lows.

[Mini Map]

All zones are now detailed on my minimap. Where is the highland and where is the lowland.

The same goes for geographical features. The condition of the soil, collapsed buildings, and even mountain ridges can be seen at a glance just by looking at the minimap.

It’s definitely something different.

An ‘amplification’ of the system that did not exist before the regression.

Wow!

The crunching sound was loud. I turned around in shock. Elise was already chewing the second skewer.

If this continues, everything will be taken away. Why does he eat so well when he comes from a family with a silver spoon?

“After eating this, let’s go hunting right away. “You have to catch 40 to be first place.”

As I said that, I lifted three skewers at once.

“What I hoped for… … her.”

Elise looked at my hand full of skewers and laughed in astonishment.

* * *

“… … ruler! Thank you all for your hard work.”

The dungeon experience was completed without any problems. Elise and I would probably easily come in first place. Because he caught 43 marinas.

“Dungeon system. How do you feel about using it for the first time? Since it was a D-class dungeon, there wouldn’t have been any special benefits. If you did, congratulations. “You can take it.”

The director laughed hahaha.

The only special drop item that can appear in a D-class dungeon is an Enhancement Coupon, but even that has a probability of less than 0.001%.

That’s why Elise is so amazing. How did you get the reinforcement ticket?

“Also, you must have acquired a lot of beads in the dungeon. You can keep those beads in your inventory, or put them in your pocket and take them out of the dungeon. “You can use it to your heart’s content.”

Most dungeon offices deduct taxes. Depending on the grade and color of the beads, the legal maximum fee of 13% is charged.

But it seems like today is for learning purposes.

“This is the end of today’s assignment. I heard that the festival starts next week. Thank you for your hard work, everyone, take a break!”

The warden clapped as he spoke. Seniors also responded with applause. Their faces were happy as they thought about taking a break for the next week.

“The person in charge will tell you the rest. Representative Chedrek?”

“yes. Thank you for your hard work.”

Chedrek shook hands with the warden and took turns.

“Thank you all for your hard work. The purpose of this dungeon experience was to introduce the [dungeon system] in advance. Currently, all dungeons found on the continent are connected to this system, so there will be no need to attack dungeons outside of the dungeon system. “It means that dungeons are not as dangerous as they used to be.”

In fact, since the invention of the [dungeon system], high school, college, and even middle school students often use dungeons. Even if you don’t know about C-level or higher, D- and F-level dungeons are definitely safe.

He continued.

“Also, as some of you may have noticed, today’s task was individual play. Contribution will be distributed among party members depending on how they hunt, and the grade will be determined based on that contribution.”

There is no need to worry about the contribution itself. Of course, Elise did all the hunting, but the [dungeon system] counts discovery itself as an appropriate achievement.

“then. We will now distribute midterm report cards before the festival. “It’s the real thing, so please come out one by one and take it.”

Rattling – The inside of the classroom shook at those words. The seniors each looked around with nervous faces.

“Gail. Gitton.”

Chedrek was called by name.

“Gerken. I hope… … .”

Physical report card. I was excited for no reason. Honestly, I haven’t screwed up any assignment yet.

“Zion.”

I jumped up. I accepted the report card handed to me by Chadrek.

[Sion Askal: CP completion list]

１. Dismantling the prism: [Pass ( １CP )]

２. Paper Bird Observation: [０ / 2.5 CP], [3.5 / 3 CP]

３. Mine: [4.3 / 5 CP]

４. Exploration Team Play: [6 / 6 CP]

５. Horsepower Capability EvaluationⅠ [2.7 / 3 CP]

７. Magical Space Experience [6 / 6 CP]

８. Experience and Art [3 / 3 CP]

９. University Tour [Pass]

Total: 20.5 / 23.5 CP

20.5 points out of 23.5 points. If you get a perfect score for today’s dungeon experience, you are in the top ‘extreme’ category. In other words, it is Jeon Jeong-gwon of the Department of Engineers at Edsilla National University.

Of course, it takes a toll on me.

Edsilla National University has a fairly high GPA rate, so if you add up the GPA and College Board score, it would probably be similar to those with CP in the 16-17 range.

“ruler. Now go and rest. “I’ll see you on Monday in two weeks.”

Meanwhile, Chedrek announced the disbandment. The seniors quietly went out, each hiding their report cards in their arms.

I also folded up my report card and put it in my pocket.

“… … “Why is he like that?”

Then, suddenly, Elise caught my eye. She looked like she had a headache and was standing with her forehead pressed against the wall, clutching her report card.

SZX- I slightly enlarged it to 9500.

The cause was visible.

７. Magical Space Experience [2.7 / 6 CP]

The rest are all perfect, but the magical space experience scores 2.7 points. Thanks to this, the total score itself is similar to mine.

No, wait. Are you lower than me?

That’s right. lower than me He dropped 3.2 points from 23.5 points to 20.3 points.

I got 20.5 points.

0.2 point difference.

“Foot.”

I laughed without realizing it. slap-! Elise looked back at me. It had eyes like a cat.

I quickly turned around and went out.

* * *

… … next day.

It was noon on a Saturday with clear weather and a gentle breeze.

The Endex campus was buzzing with anticipation for the festival.

Every year from Wednesday to Friday in the first week of April, the Magic Day Festival is said to be held by six magic high schools in the capital, but in fact, it has a strong anti-school nature. Who does better, who attracts more customers, etc.

Therefore, the main gate of Endex will be wide open from Wednesday to Friday, and the campus will be full of stalls.

“Try eating popcorn~”

There were already many street stalls doing pilot business. Most of them were freshmen.

I walked between them. Then I found Gerken standing in front of a hotteok shop.

“What are you doing?”

“… … .”

Gerken squinted at me. At that moment, a first grader handed me a hotteok and said.

“I’m a fan, Gerken-senpai! I also read Gerken’s scouting report! Are you going straight to Edsilla University?”

“You have to stick together. thanks.”

He received a hotteok. He looked back at me as he took a bite.

“I eat hotteok.”

This is probably the answer to the question, ‘What do you do?’

Gerken likes sweet food. Chocolate, hotteok, ice cream, slush, anything sweet. He is like a teacher, so I have a vague idea of ​​his habits and eating habits.

“Enjoy your meal.”

I also get jealous. Now, as soon as Gerken enters Ed Silla National University, he will be noticed by Theia Itsil and accepted as his student. She will continue to grow tremendously in her workshop.

In fact, it’s almost like jealousy. The gap between Gerken and my talents is actually like that of a firefly and the sun.

“I’m eating. Goes.”

Gerken has left. I approached the hotteok stall as if taking shifts.

“… … “Can you give me one too?”

The new student glanced at me.

“Ah yes.”

The temperature difference is quite severe compared to when dealing with Gerken. Is this also a talent gap?

“Are you a first year student?”

“Ah yes.”

“But honestly, there’s not much difference between her face and mine, right?”

“crazy. Here you go.”

“?”

I thought you just called me crazy.

Anyway, a female freshman offered me a hotteok. And then she waved her hand. It was a gesture telling me to go quickly.

I took the hotteok and took a bite.

“It’s delicious.”

“2 ren.”

The freshman called out the price. I tilted my head.

“I heard Gerken doesn’t pay.”

“2 ren.”

“… … .”

He handed me a 2-ren bill from his pocket. The new student accepted it quickly.

“thank you.”

“… … okay.”

I turned and walked away without saying anything.

However, a voice coming from right behind me stopped me.

─Give me one hotteok too.

It’s a familiar voice.

No, I’m not familiar with it, but it’s a voice I’ve heard before.

I slowly turned around, as slowly as I could, hoping it was an illusion.

“Here… … Hotteok.”

It wasn’t an illusion.

“thank you.”

The man who accepted the hotteok smiled at the freshman. The freshman blushed.

“yes… … “Are you a college student?”

“no. “He’s a little older than that.”

“Oh yeah… … ? Are you an active driver? … ?”

“no. Hey uncle. thanks for your effort.”

Just like that, he comes towards me with a hotteok in his mouth.

Step by step. Step by step.

He strokes the bandage around his neck with one hand and gently waves his hand with the other. His name is… … .

Noah Lucille.

He was the founder of ‘Geumungaek’, which I met at Recordak.
