Tanaka Jiro, twenty-eight years old, single, no girlfriend, occupation: Dungeon Tester (full-time employee)
After a short period of NEET, I am now working in a job that belongs to an uncommon
Fifa?
I'm going through rookie training.
Yeah, I'm being forced to use a kind of voice that people aren't supposed to use, but I'm undergoing rookie training.
With a thud in my gut, my feet leave the ground and after bouncing once on the white floor, I'm rolling around in a haphazard manner, but this is rookie training.
I hit each one of them with enough force to make them float in the air.
Such a being would be like a gorilla or a terminator, but unfortunately, we're dealing with someone who looks far from what you'd imagine.
To me, it makes me wonder where they have that kind of power, an intelligent, cool looking dark elf named Suela.
Rookie training?
It's a stepping stone for new employees to settle into the company under the guidance of their seniors or supervisors and become a new force on the job.
Now, you've quit your previous job at a black company to join the Demon King's Army? So I was given a position called "dungeon tester".
I went through that training, of course, but it seemed that it was very different from what I had imagined.
Are you okay?
Do I look okay to you?
I don't see him.
What does it take to dive into a dungeon?
Knowledge?
It's necessary.
Digging in and out of a dungeon is like going to die.
A tool?
There's no way you don't have weapons, armor and wounds, unless you're in a special situation, such as in a tied game.
Other preparations would be necessary, but basically what was required was combat ability.
I was about to squeeze my abdominal muscles as fast as I could, but the impact pierced me and I stopped breathing.
As a result, you can't get up naturally, and you have to get up with your body.
Even though the new force was a new force, I thought that they would have a hard time with physical combat skills, but I was naïve in my assumptions.
A week to clean up a black company, three days to move from my apartment to the company's dormitory, and now, I knew I wasn't going to become a dungeon tester and dive into a dungeon.
As expected, I couldn't let a novice or someone unfit for combat challenge the dungeon.
That's why we've set up a training period to see if they are officially hired.
On the third day of the training, I took out my kendo uniform and armor after a long absence and used the provided wooden sword with a sword hilt and peak as a staff to try to get up.
Twisting the baby's hand.
The more such words flashed through my mind, the greater the gap between me and Suela-san's abilities was.
The sweat never stops and my breath is ragged after a long day of exercise.
In contrast, Suela, in spite of wearing a suit and high heels, which are not suitable for martial arts, held a wooden cane and looked down on me without a trace of sweat.
''Your body's strength has increased, right?
You must have felt it, haven't you?
I didn't think a wooden sword with an iron core could be so light.
And yet you can't win.
No, I can't even have a real fight.
That just goes to show you how far we've come.
He was wearing a dark blue kendo suit and basic kendo gear of the same color, along with a dark brown wooden sword.
Physically he doesn't seem to have changed, but he was swinging an iron rod for tens of minutes just now.
My current physical ability is such that I can run fast enough to participate in the Olympics if I run, though I'm not saying I'll win, and I can jump over a person if I jump vertically.
I can feel that my abilities are definitely improving.
That's amazing, isn't it, a magical print?
It's just a circuit that adapts to Jiro's soul and draws magic from it. It's not that surprising.
What I can do now that even I couldn't do in my prime is the otherworldly technology called magic print.
The energy that interferes with the mind, technique and body called magic in the company and dungeons is channeled into a vessel called magic aptitude through a circuit called magic crest.
Just by doing that, my physical abilities rose dramatically.
When the special chemical was applied to my entire body like a scientific pattern, I remember asking if it did any harm.
"The more you get used to it, the better it works. And you'll be able to do your magic too.
That's exciting.
The magic print is only a circuit, it's just a way to absorb and release magic power.
But my body is strengthened as a whole after accepting magic, and it seems I can use appropriate magic if I have the proper knowledge.
And the magic print also has a secondary effect.
It's nice to know that you can feel yourself growing.
It's called status in the game, and you can see it.
I don't have it with me right now, but if you channel your magic power to the terminal developed by the Demon King's Army via the magic crest, you can check your status as a number.
Although the concept of level did not exist, it is encouraging to me as an experienced athlete to quantify your strength, speed, knowledge and even luck.
This week, we're going to have a classroom session in the morning and a series of simulations like this one in the afternoon.
To get into the dungeon?
Yes, it would be a waste of time and energy to just tell them to go ahead and do it.
It's such a harsh environment.
I'm not going to doubt Suera's words.
The magic mark I use, of course Suera uses it too.
Otherwise, there's no way she could have blown a grown man, even though she's tall for a woman, she's a fist length shorter than me, and she has a slender build that would allow her to lightly blow a grown man away.
Just a few minutes ago, during this mock battle, I was able to stop her with an uppercut swing.
It was a series of coincidences, but I felt a definite response at that moment.
But just as I stopped moving, she caught my blow with one hand and then let loose a counterattack that should have been a light kick, but was agile and caustic in its movement.
I experienced it with such pain that I was sick of counting it all afternoon.
I don't know how many times I've rolled on the ground today alone.
That's how clear the gap between her and me is, even though we've changed from surnames to nicknames since we became colleagues.
You have to listen carefully to advice and advice from your seniors.
It is for your own sake and as a member of society.
and
'It's only a brave man, isn't it? How can you get through a dungeon?
If it's only one or two divisions, it's lightly defended.
I have to create a dungeon that a brave man, who could be called an anomaly in conversation, cannot capture.
You won't be able to continue this work if you fall just short at this level.
And I had no idea how much of a monster this hero was.
It seems a crystal exists that records the battles between the previous demon king and his heroes.
It's classified and not easy to find, but Suera said she'd show it to me eventually.
The witch king and the brave are the ones who take the unjust things for granted.
A normal deco-pin attack is so unrealistic that the joke is not funny.
Thinking up dungeons to prevent it is an extraordinary feat, but when the game becomes so clearly unreasonable, it's worthwhile.
If you think of it as a preparation for that, you'll think that this suffocating pain is so much fun that you'll still be able to play it.
One more!
I shouted and stood up to resume the mock fight.
Well, it would have been nice to get one there.
There was no way they could take it, and just a few minutes ago, they had been playing mock games over and over again, losing more and more.
It's not so frustrating to lose all the games, is it?
It's frustrating, but every time you beat me, you point out what's wrong with me, and as I put it into practice and improve on it, I feel myself getting stronger and stronger, which is more fun.
I'm trying to tighten my grinning face as my joyful emotions come to the surface, so I carry the armor package back with me.
It might be a sign of your desire to go through the entrance of the dormitory and dare to take the stairs instead of the elevator, as if you haven't moved your body enough yet.
I lightly used anti-perspirant spray to remove the smell, but that didn't wipe out the sticky feeling of sweat that clung to my clothes.
In the old days, I would have taken a quick shower and opened the fridge to drink all the bubbly in one go, but that would have to wait.
You take the key out of your pocket, step inside and take off your shoes.
Now, let's see how high you are today.
Most of the personal belongings in the apartment have been sold or disposed of as a fresh start after this job change, and except for the furniture in the dormitory, my room is now arranged in a much more refreshing atmosphere.
In the midst of this, I went up to the desk without a second thought and picked up the white terminal that looks like a tablet PC at a glance.
Except for the fact that the energy source is my magic power, the contents are the tablet PC itself.
Well, except that the contents are very different from the modern ones in that it contains a lot of application functions developed by the Demon King's Army.
I couldn't wait for the device to start up with the magic power flowing from the magic crest.
"Status check...
As soon as it starts up, slide the screen and launch the status checker without hesitation.
Instantly, the screen shows that the diagnosis is in progress and it finishes the diagnosis in a few seconds.
After all, I like the increase in power and durability.
Today alone, I moved my body for four hours, and in each case I was blown away by Suera wielding a wooden sword with an iron core in it.
It's strange that it hasn't gone up.
The status chart goes from top to bottom: strength, endurance, agility, endurance, dexterity, knowledge, intuition, luck, and magic power, and then the chart is projected for comparison with the previous diagnosis.
Instead, endurance, but agility only went up a little, knowledge was almost unchanged, and luck, I've never seen any increase in it.
Strength is simply a matter of training your muscles to increase your numbers, and endurance is a matter of running long distances or doing something that requires physical strength.
I don't know how to raise the luck factor at the moment.
The morning was supposed to be a classroom training session. ...... Knowledge is really hard to raise.
Well, at least it's not going down.
This newly acquired magic mark on this status check will never lie about your efforts.
As there is a difference between talents and talents, there are abilities that are easy to raise and those that are hard to raise but that doesn't mean they can't be raised.
On the contrary, however, if you don't work hard enough, your status will fall steadily.
Red letters indicate an increase, black letters indicate stagnation and blue letters indicate a decrease.
Fortunately, there's no blue lettering in my current stats.
This should work, but there will be times when it doesn't.
Now all that remains is to see how many skills I can add to my training.
Slide the device to view the next page.
A skill is displayed, and one of the skills is displayed there.
"Scream of the Monkey King".
Intimidate and attract the enemy with strange voices that you can't understand.
If used on attack, damage increases (weak)
Yeah, that's the point.
Kendo beginners are ashamed to say 'mens' and intermediate students are ashamed to say 'mens'! I shout.
And that's when you become an expert.
"MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!
So there were a lot of strange noises that I couldn't understand.
And I'm one of them.
I was stunned to find out that I had this skill when I took my first physical exam.
If I had learned kendo...I would have expected to have swordsmanship skills or sword skills...something related to swords.
But even in fantasy, there seems to be a cruel reality.
'There are no passive skills in your game, are there?
According to Suela, you can't use your skills to do this, well, the magic crest is a substitute for your passive skills.
In addition, it seems that it's rare for someone to have a skill that is carved with a magic crest, so training it will be an asset.
Is this your lifeline in a language you don't understand?
It's true that if they're scared, we have the upper hand.
You have to think about that too, or you literally can't survive in this business.
Well, let's go take a shower.
Anyway, it's all about physical work.
Let's take a bath and have some dinner.
We've got a class tomorrow morning.
The fourth morning of the fourth day of training.
The more you move to the back of the room, the higher it gets, like a university lecture hall, I take turns looking at the materials and notes, summarizing the main points, and at intervals I look at my fellow classmates from the back of the room.
The first thing I can say is that they are all young.
At least none of them look older than me.
Mainly in their early twenties or twenty to three, I guess.
In addition, the number of members is far less than the number of people we were looking for.
Less than half, or even a third, of the seats in the lecture room, which was originally supposed to be used by a hundred people, were used.
But surprisingly, there was almost no difference in the ratio of male and female students.
What's more, there are no minors.
Well, obviously.
I don't care how good the pay is and how good the work environment is, there's no way the parents of a minor would give a permit if their life is in danger.
Well, they might in some cases, but that's the exception.
The recruiting guidelines included minors, but it's not a cartoon or a game.
Student fighting isn't exactly a dream come true, even in fantasy.
Fantasy is right in front of us.
I nodded unnoticed in a whisper because I was seated at the back of the line .
Standing at the podium is another dark elf male, different from Suela, who is also handsome and looks good in his white coat .
The female testers all have a twinkle in their eyes and are taking it seriously, while the male testers are taking it seriously 30% of the time and most of the others are listening to the conversation halfway through, looking uninteresting.
'There are two main types of monsters in the dungeon,'
Well, I'm on the 30% side of that.
It's too silly to put your life on the line with jealousy just because he's a good-looking guy who's popular with women.
Well, when you're in your thirties without a girlfriend, you've already given up a certain degree of control.
Looking at the other peers with a dismissive glance, you summarize what you think is important on the monitor and write down the parts you think are important in your own way in your notebook.
Naturally, you won't forget to put a line marker on the material as well.
"Souls and Blood. Souls are demons made up of magic alone. In general, the demons that roam the dungeons are the souls. When you attack and wound them, they don't bleed; instead, magical particles flow out, and when defeated, all but a portion of their bodies disappear.
I read the material and at the same time memorize the content of the dark elves who play the role of teachers.
''It's not that there are no individual differences, but there's not much difference in ability. With knowledge and skill, this is not an opponent that can be defeated. Instead, it has little effect on the magic crests and the materials available are few.
So they're mass-produced monsters that don't leave a body.
''Watch out for the Blood. This one has only a small population, but it has three to ten times the specs of each species' soul.
Brad, in your file, these monsters literally bleed if you hurt them and leave a corpse if you defeat them.
A unique monster, if you will.
"You're not used to dungeons yet. If you encounter one, I suggest you run for your life.
There are glimpses of a difficult reaction to the dark elf teacher's words.
It is several times as strong as a soul, and it takes risk and experience to fight, but it has the magic and special ingredients that are not available in a soul.
It's either the low risk/low reward of a soul or the high risk/high reward of a blood.
If I had to choose, I'd choose the former, but there will be people who choose the latter.
Especially if it's the one who got the magic crest.
Magic crests evolve.
Or, more accurately, optimized.
It seems it takes time for an external circuitry to seep into the body, and it takes energy to accelerate it.
To make up for it is the battle with demons.
Even just moving your body will optimize your magic print, but the quality is low and hard to raise.
On the other hand, fighting demons not only optimizes them, but also gives you magic power that increases the quality of your crests.
It's a boon to me as a thirty year old.
"It's easy to tell the difference. It's based on a soul, and there's always some kind of signature.
Demons and monsters have a tendency to want to show off their strength.
It's reflected in Blood's unique claws, skin color, and weapons.
That's all for today. We'll have our lunch and then move on to afternoon training.
The time is already close to noon, and the lecture ends five minutes early due to the fact that it's a good cutoff.
Also, we'll be collecting the job-seeking surveys tomorrow. Don't forget to bring it with you as it will be used to hand out your initial equipment.
Finally, the handsome dark elf left a message as if it were a souvenir, and left the lecture room.
You can feel your bones crunching and your tight muscles relaxing as you stretch out, freeing you from your concentration.
And everyone around you is talking about what the handsome dark elf left behind.
"What kind of job will you choose?
Hmm? I guess I'm a wizard after all.
'What? You too?
You look scared to go forward.
Yeah.
I stand up and walk past it, listening to the conversation that goes on about how there's no such thing as an advance guard.
And no one will talk to me.
If I make eye contact, they'll quietly nod their heads, but that's it.
"I guess that's what they call a generation gap.
It makes me feel really old because of your reaction.
I'm the oldest of my peers who were hired.
And everyone around me is younger than me, and honestly, they don't know how to talk to me, and they don't think there's much merit in getting along with me when my body is already on a downward slope.
Or rather, I've heard them talk about it behind my back.
Therefore, I'm happy for you.
So the thirty-something year old North Korean guy was born.
I'll take it easy on you, not necessarily for your own good.
"Guards aren't as popular as they used to be.
After switching my thoughts to positive and moving on, I looked at a form that looked like a career choice survey while eating hashish rice in a corner of the cafeteria .
You can write down your desired job from the first to the third, and in the large framework above, the occupation is divided into three types: vanguard, ranger and rear guard.
However, you won't receive any special skills just because you choose it, but you'll be given the initial equipment and a lecture on the basic movements of your chosen profession.
''Well, people are people, and I'm just me.
I'll spend the next couple of days writing down all the jobs I've got in mind, and then I'll focus on lunch.
You have to eat well if you want to be ready for the afternoon.
"Meh-yen-yen-yen.
My belly is swollen, and my bamboo chopper from the upper level, which is screaming with praise, has completely lost the word "mercy" during the past three days.
The feeling of being able to move with all your might, with the physical support of the magical crests, and being able to move with a little recklessness, even if not lightly, the feeling of fighting seriously reminds me of my younger days.
''Druuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
He forced the momentum of his swing to change and connect with Dōnagi, but it only ended with a light, thumping sound as if the two trees had hit each other.
''Show me your back and I'll attack you . Think of it that way.
There's no time to say I know.
I threw myself down to follow the advice, clearly heard in a cool voice, and as I rolled forward, I heard a slight friction sound that conveyed the air as if something was passing on my back.
'Stand up quickly . The better your prey is sitting down, the better target you have.
TULUQUY!
'Your decision to stand and fight back is excellent, but a torn-up attack on a higher rank is not going to work, even if you're of the same rank.
Your body needs to react before you can think.
"Koteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Please stand firm when you attack.
As if a thrust as a substitute for a feint had never been on her mind from the beginning, Suela's staff was precise and swift, deflecting the wooden sword she had swung at her wrist.
Otherwise, a series of blows would be reduced to nothing more than a wasteful, energy-draining move. And we need to make sure we take care of ourselves after the attack.
This is a rearguard position, so this is a different world.
The only thing I can do is push myself to jump a little bit against a wand that is visibly but so smoothly launched that I can't react.
Gu.
I can't catch my breath for a second, but that's it.
It hurts a lot, but not so much that you can't move.
I don't know how you've developed such a high pain tolerance over the past few days, I admire myself for it.
"Goha!
I'm sorry that I couldn't.
It may be a decision to try to kill the impact, but you should consider your opponent's offensive power before making such a decision. Otherwise, I would only recommend using it in very open areas to kill impacts by jumping.
Yeah, I can feel it.
But the place where I was standing and the wall I just crashed into must have been at least twenty meters away.
Especially in a dungeon with many enclosed spaces, or an area where there are many cliffs and other things that could cause a fall, that would certainly be fatal.
Tight.
It's the only way you'll survive.
Yeah, I guess so.
Suela's expression didn't change as she easily blew me off, but she walked up to me with a quick walk and touched my body.
The faint warmth of a woman's human body warmth gives me a throbbing sensation that is different from the pain.
My body bounces slightly at the sensation.
"? Excuse me, are you in pain?
No, no.
I'm just embarrassed." "I'm just embarrassed," I can't say that inappropriately or shamefully.
It's just bruises. Would you like me to cast a healing spell?
No, it's just broken bones and stuff.
"Healing magic can indeed stunt growth. But it's only durable. I wouldn't advise against it.
'If you're a vanguard, endurance value is a must, and right now my body hurts, but I don't feel like I can't, so I'm fine.
If you stand up to throw the tip of the cane held out to you so that your head is facing away with your palm, and if you turn your shoulder or lift your foot, there is a slight pain that comes from every part of your body.
But in fact, that's all it was.
I don't feel any broken bones. I don't feel like I'm bleeding. If you let it, your body's heat will mask the pain.
And I'm grateful that Suela's good at adjusting it, so it doesn't hurt in any weird places.
If my joints are sore from this, or if my grip on the wooden sword is lost, or if I get my head smashed in, it's indeed bad, but that hasn't happened so far .
''I don't know what's going to happen next, but the difference in strength between you and I right now is about the difference between a baby and a pterodactyl (wyvern). That gives me quite a bit of leeway and allows me to do what I'm currently doing .
It wasn't just about twisting baby's hands.
'By that much?'
Yes, and by the way, the difference between me and the general is about the same, too?
Even Suela, this is the dimension of power inflation that's happening, this is the dimension of power inflation, this is the dimension of power inflation.
By the way, what's the difference between the General and the Demon King?
It's not like the generals are going to be able to get a shot in or anything, but it's only a scratch.
I honestly have no idea how strong that is.
To a demon king, I'm less than an ant.
In terms of combat ability, even ...... microbes might be overloaded with them.
It's easy to give up when the difference is this great.
Finally, as the pain begins to recede, I accept Suela's invitation to take a break.
Honestly, I moved to the edge and removed my mask as I stood there with a man's willpower in front of a beautiful woman.
You will find that the brave men who are able to beat or even match such a demon king are from the same earth as me, right?
'Yes, to be more specific, sixteen to nineteen is the average age of a brave man.
"What happened to modern high school?
He should be free of the tightness of his life, but the fantasy situation that was revealed to him caused a strange and bewildering feeling to appear in his mind.
And I've never seen or heard of such a crazy high school student.
If there was such a high schooler, there's no way it wouldn't come to light.
Which meant
"Fantasy scary.
''Even if you, with your general-grade magical aptitude, say that, it seems like a fifty-step process.
I don't feel it at all.
You don't have to tell me, Suela-san, who is in a position to know the results of the first physical measurement she performed when she joined the company, laughed a little annoyed and offered me a sports drink that she had magically ordered.
''Thanks, but Magical Aptitude 8, do you really have that kind of ability?''
It's going to take a long time to realize this. The only people who can realize how strong they are from the start are truly abnormal beings with magical aptitude of 10.
I can sense a vaguely uncomfortable feeling from Suela, but there's no need to beat around the bush.
You drink the inside of the plastic bottle in one go as if you were quenching your thirst and think about my actual specs.
It doesn't feel like it at all, but in the future, that's exactly the kind of latent specs that, if you work out year by year, can reverse the position you just took in battle.
''Most people start out with only goblin-like fighting ability at best. But you won't fall behind the goblins early on. If you're lucky, you'll even beat the orcs head on.
Isn't that great?
Maybe it's because you've been completely beaten up over the past few days, I thought I'd be ripped off that you're less than a goblin now.
But Suela's opinion of me was even higher than I imagined.
"Yes, one on one, I'm sure I was right. But there aren't many beings who are alone in a dungeon. It also gives the brave men an opening.
What do you mean?
''With you now, yes, ...... if you don't give them an opening, you'll lose by ten bodies, and if you get an opening, you'll lose by three.
But the impression that she could do her job well did not go unnoticed.
Her elevated nose was soon shaved off.
If I was told in the dark that I was going to die, I'd have a belly or two, or rather, only one belly, but I'm not young enough to get pissed off that I won't know until I try.
"How strong do I have to be?
If you ask me which is safer, I'll tell you which is safer, because it's less risky.
Enough to take down a brave man.
I don't have to fight, do I?
I'm envisioning a dungeon for the heroes. We need you to be that strong.
Of course.
I knew it when it was offered to me.
Creating a monster dungeon, that's what I was hired to do.
Let's finish one more run and then we're done for the day. I'll get a little more work done, so let me know first.
?
Hearing that the break is over and then hearing that it's almost over is reason enough to put some life into it.
I'll listen to what he has to say as he puts on his face.
"Position preference forms should be collected tomorrow morning, so the upcoming afternoon training may change hands, depending on the circumstances.
Suela, did you say that you were a wizard?
Yes, sir, so if you need help, I'll turn to you.
Then you can be sure there will be no change in charge, judging by the daytime talk and surroundings.
They say a rice cake maker is a rice cake maker, but there's no difference between my preferred profession and hers.
As if to gather your strength, you tie the last cord tightly and stand up with your wooden sword in hand.
I'll do it. I'll take one then.
I don't use magic, but I will show you the close-quarters combat skills of a wizard.
I regretted that this was the end of my training with such a beautiful woman, but I made up my mind to stick around for as long as possible while facing her in the middle of the training grounds.
I'll tell you the result, I showed my best persistence ever, but the result was still the same: a battering.
In conclusion, fantasy wizards are not half bad.

After a short period of NEET, I am now working in a job that belongs to an uncommon

I'm going through rookie training.

Rookie training?
It's a stepping stone for new employees to settle into the company under the guidance of their seniors or supervisors and become a new force on the job.
Now, you've quit your previous job at a black company to join the Demon King's Army? So I was given a position called "dungeon tester".
I went through that training, of course, but it seemed that it was very different from what I had imagined.
Are you okay?
Do I look okay to you?
I don't see him.
What does it take to dive into a dungeon?

As expected, I couldn't let a novice or someone unfit for combat challenge the dungeon.
That's why we've set up a training period to see if they are officially hired.
On the third day of the training, I took out my kendo uniform and armor after a long absence and used the provided wooden sword with a sword hilt and peak as a staff to try to get up.
Twisting the baby's hand.
The more such words flashed through my mind, the greater the gap between me and Suela-san's abilities was.
The sweat never stops and my breath is ragged after a long day of exercise.
In contrast, Suela, in spite of wearing a suit and high heels, which are not suitable for martial arts, held a wooden cane and looked down on me without a trace of sweat.
''Your body's strength has increased, right?
You must have felt it, haven't you?
I didn't think a wooden sword with an iron core could be so light.
And yet you can't win.
No, I can't even have a real fight.
That just goes to show you how far we've come.
He was wearing a dark blue kendo suit and basic kendo gear of the same color, along with a dark brown wooden sword.
Physically he doesn't seem to have changed, but he was swinging an iron rod for tens of minutes just now.
My current physical ability is such that I can run fast enough to participate in the Olympics if I run, though I'm not saying I'll win, and I can jump over a person if I jump vertically.
I can feel that my abilities are definitely improving.
That's amazing, isn't it, a magical print?
It's just a circuit that adapts to Jiro's soul and draws magic from it. It's not that surprising.
What I can do now that even I couldn't do in my prime is the otherworldly technology called magic print.
The energy that interferes with the mind, technique and body called magic in the company and dungeons is channeled into a vessel called magic aptitude through a circuit called magic crest.
Just by doing that, my physical abilities rose dramatically.
When the special chemical was applied to my entire body like a scientific pattern, I remember asking if it did any harm.
"The more you get used to it, the better it works. And you'll be able to do your magic too.
That's exciting.
The magic print is only a circuit, it's just a way to absorb and release magic power.
But my body is strengthened as a whole after accepting magic, and it seems I can use appropriate magic if I have the proper knowledge.
And the magic print also has a secondary effect.
It's nice to know that you can feel yourself growing.
It's called status in the game, and you can see it.
I don't have it with me right now, but if you channel your magic power to the terminal developed by the Demon King's Army via the magic crest, you can check your status as a number.
Although the concept of level did not exist, it is encouraging to me as an experienced athlete to quantify your strength, speed, knowledge and even luck.
This week, we're going to have a classroom session in the morning and a series of simulations like this one in the afternoon.
To get into the dungeon?
Yes, it would be a waste of time and energy to just tell them to go ahead and do it.
It's such a harsh environment.
I'm not going to doubt Suera's words.
The magic mark I use, of course Suera uses it too.
Otherwise, there's no way she could have blown a grown man, even though she's tall for a woman, she's a fist length shorter than me, and she has a slender build that would allow her to lightly blow a grown man away.
Just a few minutes ago, during this mock battle, I was able to stop her with an uppercut swing.
It was a series of coincidences, but I felt a definite response at that moment.
But just as I stopped moving, she caught my blow with one hand and then let loose a counterattack that should have been a light kick, but was agile and caustic in its movement.
I experienced it with such pain that I was sick of counting it all afternoon.
I don't know how many times I've rolled on the ground today alone.
That's how clear the gap between her and me is, even though we've changed from surnames to nicknames since we became colleagues.
You have to listen carefully to advice and advice from your seniors.
It is for your own sake and as a member of society.
and
'It's only a brave man, isn't it? How can you get through a dungeon?
If it's only one or two divisions, it's lightly defended.
I have to create a dungeon that a brave man, who could be called an anomaly in conversation, cannot capture.
You won't be able to continue this work if you fall just short at this level.
And I had no idea how much of a monster this hero was.
It seems a crystal exists that records the battles between the previous demon king and his heroes.
It's classified and not easy to find, but Suera said she'd show it to me eventually.
The witch king and the brave are the ones who take the unjust things for granted.
A normal deco-pin attack is so unrealistic that the joke is not funny.
Thinking up dungeons to prevent it is an extraordinary feat, but when the game becomes so clearly unreasonable, it's worthwhile.
If you think of it as a preparation for that, you'll think that this suffocating pain is so much fun that you'll still be able to play it.
One more!
I shouted and stood up to resume the mock fight.
Well, it would have been nice to get one there.
There was no way they could take it, and just a few minutes ago, they had been playing mock games over and over again, losing more and more.
It's not so frustrating to lose all the games, is it?
It's frustrating, but every time you beat me, you point out what's wrong with me, and as I put it into practice and improve on it, I feel myself getting stronger and stronger, which is more fun.
I'm trying to tighten my grinning face as my joyful emotions come to the surface, so I carry the armor package back with me.
It might be a sign of your desire to go through the entrance of the dormitory and dare to take the stairs instead of the elevator, as if you haven't moved your body enough yet.
I lightly used anti-perspirant spray to remove the smell, but that didn't wipe out the sticky feeling of sweat that clung to my clothes.
In the old days, I would have taken a quick shower and opened the fridge to drink all the bubbly in one go, but that would have to wait.
You take the key out of your pocket, step inside and take off your shoes.
Now, let's see how high you are today.
Most of the personal belongings in the apartment have been sold or disposed of as a fresh start after this job change, and except for the furniture in the dormitory, my room is now arranged in a much more refreshing atmosphere.
In the midst of this, I went up to the desk without a second thought and picked up the white terminal that looks like a tablet PC at a glance.
Except for the fact that the energy source is my magic power, the contents are the tablet PC itself.
Well, except that the contents are very different from the modern ones in that it contains a lot of application functions developed by the Demon King's Army.
I couldn't wait for the device to start up with the magic power flowing from the magic crest.
"Status check...
As soon as it starts up, slide the screen and launch the status checker without hesitation.
Instantly, the screen shows that the diagnosis is in progress and it finishes the diagnosis in a few seconds.
After all, I like the increase in power and durability.
Today alone, I moved my body for four hours, and in each case I was blown away by Suera wielding a wooden sword with an iron core in it.
It's strange that it hasn't gone up.
The status chart goes from top to bottom: strength, endurance, agility, endurance, dexterity, knowledge, intuition, luck, and magic power, and then the chart is projected for comparison with the previous diagnosis.
Instead, endurance, but agility only went up a little, knowledge was almost unchanged, and luck, I've never seen any increase in it.
Strength is simply a matter of training your muscles to increase your numbers, and endurance is a matter of running long distances or doing something that requires physical strength.
I don't know how to raise the luck factor at the moment.
The morning was supposed to be a classroom training session. ...... Knowledge is really hard to raise.
Well, at least it's not going down.
This newly acquired magic mark on this status check will never lie about your efforts.
As there is a difference between talents and talents, there are abilities that are easy to raise and those that are hard to raise but that doesn't mean they can't be raised.
On the contrary, however, if you don't work hard enough, your status will fall steadily.
Red letters indicate an increase, black letters indicate stagnation and blue letters indicate a decrease.
Fortunately, there's no blue lettering in my current stats.
This should work, but there will be times when it doesn't.
Now all that remains is to see how many skills I can add to my training.
Slide the device to view the next page.
A skill is displayed, and one of the skills is displayed there.
"Scream of the Monkey King".
Intimidate and attract the enemy with strange voices that you can't understand.
If used on attack, damage increases (weak)
Yeah, that's the point.
Kendo beginners are ashamed to say 'mens' and intermediate students are ashamed to say 'mens'! I shout.
And that's when you become an expert.
"MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!
So there were a lot of strange noises that I couldn't understand.
And I'm one of them.
I was stunned to find out that I had this skill when I took my first physical exam.
If I had learned kendo...I would have expected to have swordsmanship skills or sword skills...something related to swords.
But even in fantasy, there seems to be a cruel reality.
'There are no passive skills in your game, are there?
According to Suela, you can't use your skills to do this, well, the magic crest is a substitute for your passive skills.
In addition, it seems that it's rare for someone to have a skill that is carved with a magic crest, so training it will be an asset.
Is this your lifeline in a language you don't understand?
It's true that if they're scared, we have the upper hand.
You have to think about that too, or you literally can't survive in this business.
Well, let's go take a shower.
Anyway, it's all about physical work.
Let's take a bath and have some dinner.
We've got a class tomorrow morning.
The fourth morning of the fourth day of training.
The more you move to the back of the room, the higher it gets, like a university lecture hall, I take turns looking at the materials and notes, summarizing the main points, and at intervals I look at my fellow classmates from the back of the room.
The first thing I can say is that they are all young.
At least none of them look older than me.
Mainly in their early twenties or twenty to three, I guess.
In addition, the number of members is far less than the number of people we were looking for.
Less than half, or even a third, of the seats in the lecture room, which was originally supposed to be used by a hundred people, were used.
But surprisingly, there was almost no difference in the ratio of male and female students.
What's more, there are no minors.
Well, obviously.
I don't care how good the pay is and how good the work environment is, there's no way the parents of a minor would give a permit if their life is in danger.
Well, they might in some cases, but that's the exception.
The recruiting guidelines included minors, but it's not a cartoon or a game.
Student fighting isn't exactly a dream come true, even in fantasy.
Fantasy is right in front of us.
I nodded unnoticed in a whisper because I was seated at the back of the line .
Standing at the podium is another dark elf male, different from Suela, who is also handsome and looks good in his white coat .
The female testers all have a twinkle in their eyes and are taking it seriously, while the male testers are taking it seriously 30% of the time and most of the others are listening to the conversation halfway through, looking uninteresting.
'There are two main types of monsters in the dungeon,'
Well, I'm on the 30% side of that.
It's too silly to put your life on the line with jealousy just because he's a good-looking guy who's popular with women.
Well, when you're in your thirties without a girlfriend, you've already given up a certain degree of control.
Looking at the other peers with a dismissive glance, you summarize what you think is important on the monitor and write down the parts you think are important in your own way in your notebook.
Naturally, you won't forget to put a line marker on the material as well.
"Souls and Blood. Souls are demons made up of magic alone. In general, the demons that roam the dungeons are the souls. When you attack and wound them, they don't bleed; instead, magical particles flow out, and when defeated, all but a portion of their bodies disappear.
I read the material and at the same time memorize the content of the dark elves who play the role of teachers.
''It's not that there are no individual differences, but there's not much difference in ability. With knowledge and skill, this is not an opponent that can be defeated. Instead, it has little effect on the magic crests and the materials available are few.
So they're mass-produced monsters that don't leave a body.
''Watch out for the Blood. This one has only a small population, but it has three to ten times the specs of each species' soul.
Brad, in your file, these monsters literally bleed if you hurt them and leave a corpse if you defeat them.
A unique monster, if you will.
"You're not used to dungeons yet. If you encounter one, I suggest you run for your life.
There are glimpses of a difficult reaction to the dark elf teacher's words.
It is several times as strong as a soul, and it takes risk and experience to fight, but it has the magic and special ingredients that are not available in a soul.
It's either the low risk/low reward of a soul or the high risk/high reward of a blood.
If I had to choose, I'd choose the former, but there will be people who choose the latter.
Especially if it's the one who got the magic crest.
Magic crests evolve.
Or, more accurately, optimized.
It seems it takes time for an external circuitry to seep into the body, and it takes energy to accelerate it.
To make up for it is the battle with demons.
Even just moving your body will optimize your magic print, but the quality is low and hard to raise.
On the other hand, fighting demons not only optimizes them, but also gives you magic power that increases the quality of your crests.
It's a boon to me as a thirty year old.
"It's easy to tell the difference. It's based on a soul, and there's always some kind of signature.
Demons and monsters have a tendency to want to show off their strength.
It's reflected in Blood's unique claws, skin color, and weapons.
That's all for today. We'll have our lunch and then move on to afternoon training.
The time is already close to noon, and the lecture ends five minutes early due to the fact that it's a good cutoff.
Also, we'll be collecting the job-seeking surveys tomorrow. Don't forget to bring it with you as it will be used to hand out your initial equipment.
Finally, the handsome dark elf left a message as if it were a souvenir, and left the lecture room.
You can feel your bones crunching and your tight muscles relaxing as you stretch out, freeing you from your concentration.
And everyone around you is talking about what the handsome dark elf left behind.
"What kind of job will you choose?
Hmm? I guess I'm a wizard after all.
'What? You too?
You look scared to go forward.
Yeah.
I stand up and walk past it, listening to the conversation that goes on about how there's no such thing as an advance guard.
And no one will talk to me.
If I make eye contact, they'll quietly nod their heads, but that's it.
"I guess that's what they call a generation gap.
It makes me feel really old because of your reaction.
I'm the oldest of my peers who were hired.
And everyone around me is younger than me, and honestly, they don't know how to talk to me, and they don't think there's much merit in getting along with me when my body is already on a downward slope.
Or rather, I've heard them talk about it behind my back.
Therefore, I'm happy for you.
So the thirty-something year old North Korean guy was born.
I'll take it easy on you, not necessarily for your own good.
"Guards aren't as popular as they used to be.
After switching my thoughts to positive and moving on, I looked at a form that looked like a career choice survey while eating hashish rice in a corner of the cafeteria .
You can write down your desired job from the first to the third, and in the large framework above, the occupation is divided into three types: vanguard, ranger and rear guard.
However, you won't receive any special skills just because you choose it, but you'll be given the initial equipment and a lecture on the basic movements of your chosen profession.
''Well, people are people, and I'm just me.
I'll spend the next couple of days writing down all the jobs I've got in mind, and then I'll focus on lunch.
You have to eat well if you want to be ready for the afternoon.
"Meh-yen-yen-yen.
My belly is swollen, and my bamboo chopper from the upper level, which is screaming with praise, has completely lost the word "mercy" during the past three days.
The feeling of being able to move with all your might, with the physical support of the magical crests, and being able to move with a little recklessness, even if not lightly, the feeling of fighting seriously reminds me of my younger days.
''Druuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
He forced the momentum of his swing to change and connect with Dōnagi, but it only ended with a light, thumping sound as if the two trees had hit each other.
''Show me your back and I'll attack you . Think of it that way.
There's no time to say I know.
I threw myself down to follow the advice, clearly heard in a cool voice, and as I rolled forward, I heard a slight friction sound that conveyed the air as if something was passing on my back.
'Stand up quickly . The better your prey is sitting down, the better target you have.
TULUQUY!
'Your decision to stand and fight back is excellent, but a torn-up attack on a higher rank is not going to work, even if you're of the same rank.
Your body needs to react before you can think.
"Koteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Please stand firm when you attack.
As if a thrust as a substitute for a feint had never been on her mind from the beginning, Suela's staff was precise and swift, deflecting the wooden sword she had swung at her wrist.
Otherwise, a series of blows would be reduced to nothing more than a wasteful, energy-draining move. And we need to make sure we take care of ourselves after the attack.
This is a rearguard position, so this is a different world.
The only thing I can do is push myself to jump a little bit against a wand that is visibly but so smoothly launched that I can't react.
Gu.
I can't catch my breath for a second, but that's it.
It hurts a lot, but not so much that you can't move.
I don't know how you've developed such a high pain tolerance over the past few days, I admire myself for it.
"Goha!
I'm sorry that I couldn't.
It may be a decision to try to kill the impact, but you should consider your opponent's offensive power before making such a decision. Otherwise, I would only recommend using it in very open areas to kill impacts by jumping.
Yeah, I can feel it.
But the place where I was standing and the wall I just crashed into must have been at least twenty meters away.
Especially in a dungeon with many enclosed spaces, or an area where there are many cliffs and other things that could cause a fall, that would certainly be fatal.
Tight.
It's the only way you'll survive.
Yeah, I guess so.
Suela's expression didn't change as she easily blew me off, but she walked up to me with a quick walk and touched my body.
The faint warmth of a woman's human body warmth gives me a throbbing sensation that is different from the pain.
My body bounces slightly at the sensation.
"? Excuse me, are you in pain?
No, no.
I'm just embarrassed." "I'm just embarrassed," I can't say that inappropriately or shamefully.
It's just bruises. Would you like me to cast a healing spell?
No, it's just broken bones and stuff.
"Healing magic can indeed stunt growth. But it's only durable. I wouldn't advise against it.
'If you're a vanguard, endurance value is a must, and right now my body hurts, but I don't feel like I can't, so I'm fine.
If you stand up to throw the tip of the cane held out to you so that your head is facing away with your palm, and if you turn your shoulder or lift your foot, there is a slight pain that comes from every part of your body.
But in fact, that's all it was.
I don't feel any broken bones. I don't feel like I'm bleeding. If you let it, your body's heat will mask the pain.
And I'm grateful that Suela's good at adjusting it, so it doesn't hurt in any weird places.
If my joints are sore from this, or if my grip on the wooden sword is lost, or if I get my head smashed in, it's indeed bad, but that hasn't happened so far .
''I don't know what's going to happen next, but the difference in strength between you and I right now is about the difference between a baby and a pterodactyl (wyvern). That gives me quite a bit of leeway and allows me to do what I'm currently doing .
It wasn't just about twisting baby's hands.
'By that much?'
Yes, and by the way, the difference between me and the general is about the same, too?
Even Suela, this is the dimension of power inflation that's happening, this is the dimension of power inflation, this is the dimension of power inflation.
By the way, what's the difference between the General and the Demon King?
It's not like the generals are going to be able to get a shot in or anything, but it's only a scratch.
I honestly have no idea how strong that is.
To a demon king, I'm less than an ant.
In terms of combat ability, even ...... microbes might be overloaded with them.
It's easy to give up when the difference is this great.
Finally, as the pain begins to recede, I accept Suela's invitation to take a break.
Honestly, I moved to the edge and removed my mask as I stood there with a man's willpower in front of a beautiful woman.
You will find that the brave men who are able to beat or even match such a demon king are from the same earth as me, right?
'Yes, to be more specific, sixteen to nineteen is the average age of a brave man.
"What happened to modern high school?
He should be free of the tightness of his life, but the fantasy situation that was revealed to him caused a strange and bewildering feeling to appear in his mind.
And I've never seen or heard of such a crazy high school student.
If there was such a high schooler, there's no way it wouldn't come to light.
Which meant
"Fantasy scary.
''Even if you, with your general-grade magical aptitude, say that, it seems like a fifty-step process.
I don't feel it at all.
You don't have to tell me, Suela-san, who is in a position to know the results of the first physical measurement she performed when she joined the company, laughed a little annoyed and offered me a sports drink that she had magically ordered.
''Thanks, but Magical Aptitude 8, do you really have that kind of ability?''
It's going to take a long time to realize this. The only people who can realize how strong they are from the start are truly abnormal beings with magical aptitude of 10.
I can sense a vaguely uncomfortable feeling from Suela, but there's no need to beat around the bush.
You drink the inside of the plastic bottle in one go as if you were quenching your thirst and think about my actual specs.
It doesn't feel like it at all, but in the future, that's exactly the kind of latent specs that, if you work out year by year, can reverse the position you just took in battle.
''Most people start out with only goblin-like fighting ability at best. But you won't fall behind the goblins early on. If you're lucky, you'll even beat the orcs head on.
Isn't that great?
Maybe it's because you've been completely beaten up over the past few days, I thought I'd be ripped off that you're less than a goblin now.
But Suela's opinion of me was even higher than I imagined.
"Yes, one on one, I'm sure I was right. But there aren't many beings who are alone in a dungeon. It also gives the brave men an opening.
What do you mean?
''With you now, yes, ...... if you don't give them an opening, you'll lose by ten bodies, and if you get an opening, you'll lose by three.
But the impression that she could do her job well did not go unnoticed.
Her elevated nose was soon shaved off.
If I was told in the dark that I was going to die, I'd have a belly or two, or rather, only one belly, but I'm not young enough to get pissed off that I won't know until I try.
"How strong do I have to be?
If you ask me which is safer, I'll tell you which is safer, because it's less risky.
Enough to take down a brave man.
I don't have to fight, do I?
I'm envisioning a dungeon for the heroes. We need you to be that strong.
Of course.
I knew it when it was offered to me.
Creating a monster dungeon, that's what I was hired to do.
Let's finish one more run and then we're done for the day. I'll get a little more work done, so let me know first.
?
Hearing that the break is over and then hearing that it's almost over is reason enough to put some life into it.
I'll listen to what he has to say as he puts on his face.
"Position preference forms should be collected tomorrow morning, so the upcoming afternoon training may change hands, depending on the circumstances.
Suela, did you say that you were a wizard?
Yes, sir, so if you need help, I'll turn to you.
Then you can be sure there will be no change in charge, judging by the daytime talk and surroundings.
They say a rice cake maker is a rice cake maker, but there's no difference between my preferred profession and hers.
As if to gather your strength, you tie the last cord tightly and stand up with your wooden sword in hand.
I'll do it. I'll take one then.
I don't use magic, but I will show you the close-quarters combat skills of a wizard.
I regretted that this was the end of my training with such a beautiful woman, but I made up my mind to stick around for as long as possible while facing her in the middle of the training grounds.
I'll tell you the result, I showed my best persistence ever, but the result was still the same: a battering.
In conclusion, fantasy wizards are not half bad.

Word of the Day.
Trained and beaten to a pulp by a dark elf wizard.
Tanaka Jiro, twenty-eight years old, single, no girlfriend, occupation: Dungeon Tester full-time employeeAfter a short period of NEET, I am now working in a job that belongs to an uncommonFifa?I'm going through rookie training.Yeah, I'm being forced to use a kind of voice that people aren't supposed to use, but I'm undergoing rookie training.With a thud in my gut, my feet leave the ground and after bouncing once on the white floor, I'm rolling around in a haphazard manner, but this is rookie training.I hit each one of them with enough force to make them float in the air.Such a being would be like a gorilla or a terminator, but unfortunately, we're dealing with someone who looks far from what you'd imagine.To me, it makes me wonder where they have that kind of power, an intelligent, cool looking dark elf named Suela.Rookie training?It's a stepping stone for new employees to settle into the company under the guidance of their seniors or supervisors and become a new force on the job.Now, you've quit your previous job at a black company to join the Demon King's Army? So I was given a position called "dungeon tester".I went through that training, of course, but it seemed that it was very different from what I had imagined.Are you okay?Do I look okay to you?I don't see him.What does it take to dive into a dungeon?Knowledge?It's necessary.Digging in and out of a dungeon is like going to die.A tool?There's no way you don't have weapons, armor and wounds, unless you're in a special situation, such as in a tied game.Other preparations would be necessary, but basically what was required was combat ability.I was about to squeeze my abdominal muscles as fast as I could, but the impact pierced me and I stopped breathing.As a result, you can't get up naturally, and you have to get up with your body.Even though the new force was a new force, I thought that they would have a hard time with physical combat skills, but I was nave in my assumptions.A week to clean up a black company, three days to move from my apartment to the company's dormitory, and now, I knew I wasn't going to become a dungeon tester and dive into a dungeon.As expected, I couldn't let a novice or someone unfit for combat challenge the dungeon.That's why we've set up a training period to see if they are officially hired.On the third day of the training, I took out my kendo uniform and armor after a long absence and used the provided wooden sword with a sword hilt and peak as a staff to try to get up.Twisting the baby's hand.The more such words flashed through my mind, the greater the gap between me and Suela-san's abilities was.The sweat never stops and my breath is ragged after a long day of exercise.In contrast, Suela, in spite of wearing a suit and high heels, which are not suitable for martial arts, held a wooden cane and looked down on me without a trace of sweat.''Your body's strength has increased, right?You must have felt it, haven't you?I didn't think a wooden sword with an iron core could be so light.And yet you can't win.No, I can't even have a real fight.That just goes to show you how far we've come.He was wearing a dark blue kendo suit and basic kendo gear of the same color, along with a dark brown wooden sword.Physically he doesn't seem to have changed, but he was swinging an iron rod for tens of minutes just now.My current physical ability is such that I can run fast enough to participate in the Olympics if I run, though I'm not saying I'll win, and I can jump over a person if I jump vertically.I can feel that my abilities are definitely improving.That's amazing, isn't it, a magical print?It's just a circuit that adapts to Jiro's soul and draws magic from it. It's not that surprising.What I can do now that even I couldn't do in my prime is the otherworldly technology called magic print.The energy that interferes with the mind, technique and body called magic in the company and dungeons is channeled into a vessel called magic aptitude through a circuit called magic crest.Just by doing that, my physical abilities rose dramatically.When the special chemical was applied to my entire body like a scientific pattern, I remember asking if it did any harm."The more you get used to it, the better it works. And you'll be able to do your magic too.That's exciting.The magic print is only a circuit, it's just a way to absorb and release magic power.But my body is strengthened as a whole after accepting magic, and it seems I can use appropriate magic if I have the proper knowledge.And the magic print also has a secondary effect.It's nice to know that you can feel yourself growing.It's called status in the game, and you can see it.I don't have it with me right now, but if you channel your magic power to the terminal developed by the Demon King's Army via the magic crest, you can check your status as a number.Although the concept of level did not exist, it is encouraging to me as an experienced athlete to quantify your strength, speed, knowledge and even luck.This week, we're going to have a classroom session in the morning and a series of simulations like this one in the afternoon.To get into the dungeon?Yes, it would be a waste of time and energy to just tell them to go ahead and do it.It's such a harsh environment.I'm not going to doubt Suera's words.The magic mark I use, of course Suera uses it too.Otherwise, there's no way she could have blown a grown man, even though she's tall for a woman, she's a fist length shorter than me, and she has a slender build that would allow her to lightly blow a grown man away.Just a few minutes ago, during this mock battle, I was able to stop her with an uppercut swing.It was a series of coincidences, but I felt a definite response at that moment.But just as I stopped moving, she caught my blow with one hand and then let loose a counterattack that should have been a light kick, but was agile and caustic in its movement.I experienced it with such pain that I was sick of counting it all afternoon.I don't know how many times I've rolled on the ground today alone.That's how clear the gap between her and me is, even though we've changed from surnames to nicknames since we became colleagues.You have to listen carefully to advice and advice from your seniors.It is for your own sake and as a member of society.and'It's only a brave man, isn't it?How can you get through a dungeon?If it's only one or two divisions, it's lightly defended.I have to create a dungeon that a brave man, who could be called an anomaly in conversation, cannot capture.You won't be able to continue this work if you fall just short at this level.And I had no idea how much of a monster this hero was.It seems a crystal exists that records the battles between the previous demon king and his heroes.It's classified and not easy to find, but Suera said she'd show it to me eventually.The witch king and the brave are the ones who take the unjust things for granted.A normal deco-pin attack is so unrealistic that the joke is not funny.Thinking up dungeons to prevent it is an extraordinary feat, but when the game becomes so clearly unreasonable, it's worthwhile.If you think of it as a preparation for that, you'll think that this suffocating pain is so much fun that you'll still be able to play it.One more!I shouted and stood up to resume the mock fight.Well, it would have been nice to get one there.There was no way they could take it, and just a few minutes ago, they had been playing mock games over and over again, losing more and more.It's not so frustrating to lose all the games, is it?It's frustrating, but every time you beat me, you point out what's wrong with me, and as I put it into practice and improve on it, I feel myself getting stronger and stronger, which is more fun.I'm trying to tighten my grinning face as my joyful emotions come to the surface, so I carry the armor package back with me.It might be a sign of your desire to go through the entrance of the dormitory and dare to take the stairs instead of the elevator, as if you haven't moved your body enough yet.I lightly used anti-perspirant spray to remove the smell, but that didn't wipe out the sticky feeling of sweat that clung to my clothes.In the old days, I would have taken a quick shower and opened the fridge to drink all the bubbly in one go, but that would have to wait.You take the key out of your pocket, step inside and take off your shoes.Now, let's see how high you are today.Most of the personal belongings in the apartment have been sold or disposed of as a fresh start after this job change, and except for the furniture in the dormitory, my room is now arranged in a much more refreshing atmosphere.In the midst of this, I went up to the desk without a second thought and picked up the white terminal that looks like a tablet PC at a glance.Except for the fact that the energy source is my magic power, the contents are the tablet PC itself.Well, except that the contents are very different from the modern ones in that it contains a lot of application functions developed by the Demon King's Army.I couldn't wait for the device to start up with the magic power flowing from the magic crest."Status check...As soon as it starts up, slide the screen and launch the status checker without hesitation.Instantly, the screen shows that the diagnosis is in progress and it finishes the diagnosis in a few seconds.After all, I like the increase in power and durability.Today alone, I moved my body for four hours, and in each case I was blown away by Suera wielding a wooden sword with an iron core in it.It's strange that it hasn't gone up.The status chart goes from top to bottom: strength, endurance, agility, endurance, dexterity, knowledge, intuition, luck, and magic power, and then the chart is projected for comparison with the previous diagnosis.Instead, endurance, but agility only went up a little, knowledge was almost unchanged, and luck, I've never seen any increase in it.Strength is simply a matter of training your muscles to increase your numbers, and endurance is a matter of running long distances or doing something that requires physical strength.I don't know how to raise the luck factor at the moment.The morning was supposed to be a classroom training session. ...... Knowledge is really hard to raise.Well, at least it's not going down.This newly acquired magic mark on this status check will never lie about your efforts.As there is a difference between talents and talents, there are abilities that are easy to raise and those that are hard to raise but that doesn't mean they can't be raised.On the contrary, however, if you don't work hard enough, your status will fall steadily.Red letters indicate an increase, black letters indicate stagnation and blue letters indicate a decrease.Fortunately, there's no blue lettering in my current stats.This should work, but there will be times when it doesn't.Now all that remains is to see how many skills I can add to my training.Slide the device to view the next page.A skill is displayed, and one of the skills is displayed there."Scream of the Monkey King".Intimidate and attract the enemy with strange voices that you can't understand.If used on attack, damage increases weakYeah, that's the point.Kendo beginners are ashamed to say 'mens' and intermediate students are ashamed to say 'mens'! I shout.And that's when you become an expert."MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEN!So there were a lot of strange noises that I couldn't understand.And I'm one of them.I was stunned to find out that I had this skill when I took my first physical exam.If I had learned kendo...I would have expected to have swordsmanship skills or sword skills...something related to swords.But even in fantasy, there seems to be a cruel reality.'There are no passive skills in your game, are there?According to Suela, you can't use your skills to do this, well, the magic crest is a substitute for your passive skills.In addition, it seems that it's rare for someone to have a skill that is carved with a magic crest, so training it will be an asset.Is this your lifeline in a language you don't understand?It's true that if they're scared, we have the upper hand.You have to think about that too, or you literally can't survive in this business.Well, let's go take a shower.Anyway, it's all about physical work.Let's take a bath and have some dinner.We've got a class tomorrow morning.The fourth morning of the fourth day of training.The more you move to the back of the room, the higher it gets, like a university lecture hall, I take turns looking at the materials and notes, summarizing the main points, and at intervals I look at my fellow classmates from the back of the room.The first thing I can say is that they are all young.At least none of them look older than me.Mainly in their early twenties or twenty to three, I guess.In addition, the number of members is far less than the number of people we were looking for.Less than half, or even a third, of the seats in the lecture room, which was originally supposed to be used by a hundred people, were used.But surprisingly, there was almost no difference in the ratio of male and female students.What's more, there are no minors.Well, obviously.I don't care how good the pay is and how good the work environment is, there's no way the parents of a minor would give a permit if their life is in danger.Well, they might in some cases, but that's the exception.The recruiting guidelines included minors, but it's not a cartoon or a game.Student fighting isn't exactly a dream come true, even in fantasy.Fantasy is right in front of us.I nodded unnoticed in a whisper because I was seated at the back of the line .Standing at the podium is another dark elf male, different from Suela, who is also handsome and looks good in his white coat .The female testers all have a twinkle in their eyes and are taking it seriously, while the male testers are taking it seriously 30% of the time and most of the others are listening to the conversation halfway through, looking uninteresting.'There are two main types of monsters in the dungeon,'Well, I'm on the 30% side of that.It's too silly to put your life on the line with jealousy just because he's a good-looking guy who's popular with women.Well, when you're in your thirties without a girlfriend, you've already given up a certain degree of control.Looking at the other peers with a dismissive glance, you summarize what you think is important on the monitor and write down the parts you think are important in your own way in your notebook.Naturally, you won't forget to put a line marker on the material as well."Souls and Blood. Souls are demons made up of magic alone. In general, the demons that roam the dungeons are the souls. When you attack and wound them, they don't bleed; instead, magical particles flow out, and when defeated, all but a portion of their bodies disappear.I read the material and at the same time memorize the content of the dark elves who play the role of teachers.''It's not that there are no individual differences, but there's not much difference in ability. With knowledge and skill, this is not an opponent that can be defeated. Instead, it has little effect on the magic crests and the materials available are few.So they're mass-produced monsters that don't leave a body.''Watch out for the Blood. This one has only a small population, but it has three to ten times the specs of each species' soul.Brad, in your file, these monsters literally bleed if you hurt them and leave a corpse if you defeat them.A unique monster, if you will."You're not used to dungeons yet. If you encounter one, I suggest you run for your life.There are glimpses of a difficult reaction to the dark elf teacher's words.It is several times as strong as a soul, and it takes risk and experience to fight, but it has the magic and special ingredients that are not available in a soul.It's either the low risk/low reward of a soul or the high risk/high reward of a blood.If I had to choose, I'd choose the former, but there will be people who choose the latter.Especially if it's the one who got the magic crest.Magic crests evolve.Or, more accurately, optimized.It seems it takes time for an external circuitry to seep into the body, and it takes energy to accelerate it.To make up for it is the battle with demons.Even just moving your body will optimize your magic print, but the quality is low and hard to raise.On the other hand, fighting demons not only optimizes them, but also gives you magic power that increases the quality of your crests.It's a boon to me as a thirty year old."It's easy to tell the difference. It's based on a soul, and there's always some kind of signature.Demons and monsters have a tendency to want to show off their strength.It's reflected in Blood's unique claws, skin color, and weapons.That's all for today. We'll have our lunch and then move on to afternoon training.The time is already close to noon, and the lecture ends five minutes early due to the fact that it's a good cutoff.Also, we'll be collecting the job-seeking surveys tomorrow. Don't forget to bring it with you as it will be used to hand out your initial equipment.Finally, the handsome dark elf left a message as if it were a souvenir, and left the lecture room.You can feel your bones crunching and your tight muscles relaxing as you stretch out, freeing you from your concentration.And everyone around you is talking about what the handsome dark elf left behind."What kind of job will you choose?Hmm?I guess I'm a wizard after all.'What?You too?You look scared to go forward.Yeah.I stand up and walk past it, listening to the conversation that goes on about how there's no such thing as an advance guard.And no one will talk to me.If I make eye contact, they'll quietly nod their heads, but that's it."I guess that's what they call a generation gap.It makes me feel really old because of your reaction.I'm the oldest of my peers who were hired.And everyone around me is younger than me, and honestly, they don't know how to talk to me, and they don't think there's much merit in getting along with me when my body is already on a downward slope.Or rather, I've heard them talk about it behind my back.Therefore, I'm happy for you.So the thirty-something year old North Korean guy was born.I'll take it easy on you, not necessarily for your own good."Guards aren't as popular as they used to be.After switching my thoughts to positive and moving on, I looked at a form that looked like a career choice survey while eating hashish rice in a corner of the cafeteria .You can write down your desired job from the first to the third, and in the large framework above, the occupation is divided into three types: vanguard, ranger and rear guard.However, you won't receive any special skills just because you choose it, but you'll be given the initial equipment and a lecture on the basic movements of your chosen profession.''Well, people are people, and I'm just me.I'll spend the next couple of days writing down all the jobs I've got in mind, and then I'll focus on lunch.You have to eat well if you want to be ready for the afternoon."Meh-yen-yen-yen.My belly is swollen, and my bamboo chopper from the upper level, which is screaming with praise, has completely lost the word "mercy" during the past three days.The feeling of being able to move with all your might, with the physical support of the magical crests, and being able to move with a little recklessness, even if not lightly, the feeling of fighting seriously reminds me of my younger days.''Druuuuuuuuuuuuuu!He forced the momentum of his swing to change and connect with Dnagi, but it only ended with a light, thumping sound as if the two trees had hit each other.''Show me your back and I'll attack you . Think of it that way.There's no time to say I know.I threw myself down to follow the advice, clearly heard in a cool voice, and as I rolled forward, I heard a slight friction sound that conveyed the air as if something was passing on my back.'Stand up quickly . The better your prey is sitting down, the better target you have.TULUQUY!'Your decision to stand and fight back is excellent, but a torn-up attack on a higher rank is not going to work, even if you're of the same rank.Your body needs to react before you can think."Koteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!Please stand firm when you attack.As if a thrust as a substitute for a feint had never been on her mind from the beginning, Suela's staff was precise and swift, deflecting the wooden sword she had swung at her wrist.Otherwise, a series of blows would be reduced to nothing more than a wasteful, energy-draining move. And we need to make sure we take care of ourselves after the attack.This is a rearguard position, so this is a different world.The only thing I can do is push myself to jump a little bit against a wand that is visibly but so smoothly launched that I can't react.Gu.I can't catch my breath for a second, but that's it.It hurts a lot, but not so much that you can't move.I don't know how you've developed such a high pain tolerance over the past few days, I admire myself for it."Goha!I'm sorry that I couldn't.It may be a decision to try to kill the impact, but you should consider your opponent's offensive power before making such a decision. Otherwise, I would only recommend using it in very open areas to kill impacts by jumping.Yeah, I can feel it.But the place where I was standing and the wall I just crashed into must have been at least twenty meters away.Especially in a dungeon with many enclosed spaces, or an area where there are many cliffs and other things that could cause a fall, that would certainly be fatal.Tight.It's the only way you'll survive.Yeah, I guess so.Suela's expression didn't change as she easily blew me off, but she walked up to me with a quick walk and touched my body.The faint warmth of a woman's human body warmth gives me a throbbing sensation that is different from the pain.My body bounces slightly at the sensation."?Excuse me, are you in pain?No, no.I'm just embarrassed." "I'm just embarrassed," I can't say that inappropriately or shamefully.It's just bruises. Would you like me to cast a healing spell?No, it's just broken bones and stuff."Healing magic can indeed stunt growth. But it's only durable. I wouldn't advise against it.'If you're a vanguard, endurance value is a must, and right now my body hurts, but I don't feel like I can't, so I'm fine.If you stand up to throw the tip of the cane held out to you so that your head is facing away with your palm, and if you turn your shoulder or lift your foot, there is a slight pain that comes from every part of your body.But in fact, that's all it was.I don't feel any broken bones. I don't feel like I'm bleeding. If you let it, your body's heat will mask the pain.And I'm grateful that Suela's good at adjusting it, so it doesn't hurt in any weird places.If my joints are sore from this, or if my grip on the wooden sword is lost, or if I get my head smashed in, it's indeed bad, but that hasn't happened so far .''I don't know what's going to happen next, but the difference in strength between you and I right now is about the difference between a baby and a pterodactyl wyvern. That gives me quite a bit of leeway and allows me to do what I'm currently doing .It wasn't just about twisting baby's hands.'By that much?'Yes, and by the way, the difference between me and the general is about the same, too?Even Suela, this is the dimension of power inflation that's happening, this is the dimension of power inflation, this is the dimension of power inflation.By the way, what's the difference between the General and the Demon King?It's not like the generals are going to be able to get a shot in or anything, but it's only a scratch.I honestly have no idea how strong that is.To a demon king, I'm less than an ant.In terms of combat ability, even ...... microbes might be overloaded with them.It's easy to give up when the difference is this great.Finally, as the pain begins to recede, I accept Suela's invitation to take a break.Honestly, I moved to the edge and removed my mask as I stood there with a man's willpower in front of a beautiful woman.You will find that the brave men who are able to beat or even match such a demon king are from the same earth as me, right?'Yes, to be more specific, sixteen to nineteen is the average age of a brave man."What happened to modern high school?He should be free of the tightness of his life, but the fantasy situation that was revealed to him caused a strange and bewildering feeling to appear in his mind.And I've never seen or heard of such a crazy high school student.If there was such a high schooler, there's no way it wouldn't come to light.Which meant"Fantasy scary.''Even if you, with your general-grade magical aptitude, say that, it seems like a fifty-step process.I don't feel it at all.You don't have to tell me, Suela-san, who is in a position to know the results of the first physical measurement she performed when she joined the company, laughed a little annoyed and offered me a sports drink that she had magically ordered.''Thanks, but Magical Aptitude 8, do you really have that kind of ability?''It's going to take a long time to realize this. The only people who can realize how strong they are from the start are truly abnormal beings with magical aptitude of 10.I can sense a vaguely uncomfortable feeling from Suela, but there's no need to beat around the bush.You drink the inside of the plastic bottle in one go as if you were quenching your thirst and think about my actual specs.It doesn't feel like it at all, but in the future, that's exactly the kind of latent specs that, if you work out year by year, can reverse the position you just took in battle.''Most people start out with only goblin-like fighting ability at best. But you won't fall behind the goblins early on. If you're lucky, you'll even beat the orcs head on.Isn't that great?Maybe it's because you've been completely beaten up over the past few days, I thought I'd be ripped off that you're less than a goblin now.But Suela's opinion of me was even higher than I imagined."Yes, one on one, I'm sure I was right. But there aren't many beings who are alone in a dungeon. It also gives the brave men an opening.What do you mean?''With you now, yes, ...... if you don't give them an opening, you'll lose by ten bodies, and if you get an opening, you'll lose by three.But the impression that she could do her job well did not go unnoticed.Her elevated nose was soon shaved off.If I was told in the dark that I was going to die, I'd have a belly or two, or rather, only one belly, but I'm not young enough to get pissed off that I won't know until I try."How strong do I have to be?If you ask me which is safer, I'll tell you which is safer, because it's less risky.Enough to take down a brave man.I don't have to fight, do I?I'm envisioning a dungeon for the heroes. We need you to be that strong.Of course.I knew it when it was offered to me.Creating a monster dungeon, that's what I was hired to do.Let's finish one more run and then we're done for the day. I'll get a little more work done, so let me know first.?Hearing that the break is over and then hearing that it's almost over is reason enough to put some life into it.I'll listen to what he has to say as he puts on his face."Position preference forms should be collected tomorrow morning, so the upcoming afternoon training may change hands, depending on the circumstances.Suela, did you say that you were a wizard?Yes, sir, so if you need help, I'll turn to you.Then you can be sure there will be no change in charge, judging by the daytime talk and surroundings.They say a rice cake maker is a rice cake maker, but there's no difference between my preferred profession and hers.As if to gather your strength, you tie the last cord tightly and stand up with your wooden sword in hand.I'll do it. I'll take one then.I don't use magic, but I will show you the close-quarters combat skills of a wizard.I regretted that this was the end of my training with such a beautiful woman, but I made up my mind to stick around for as long as possible while facing her in the middle of the training grounds.I'll tell you the result, I showed my best persistence ever, but the result was still the same: a battering.In conclusion, fantasy wizards are not half bad.Tanaka Jiro, twenty-eight years old, single, no girlfriend, occupation: Dungeon Tester full-time employee.Magic Aptitude 8 General ClassstatusForce 13 Force 25Endurance 10 Endurance 30Agility 12 Agility 17Endurance 8 -5 - Endurance 19 -5Dexterous 15 Dexterous 21Knowledge 30 Knowledge 31Intuition 5 Intuition 6Luck 5 - Luck 5Magic power 40 Magic power 40statenicotine addictionlung pollutionWord of the Day.Trained and beaten to a pulp by a dark elf wizard.
