Ch.65

Zach, Kaiyo, Richard, and Todo stood in front of a giant volcanoe with numerous ones in the back ground. The one they stood in front was the smallest, reaching 60 meters in height. The ones behind it were over 120 meters.

"Gosh. It's too hot for meh.."

Richard was already in dying from the heat while the other 3 had slight sweat on their faces. Todo was awake now and was looking around with jitters.

"When will we fight bad guys?! Come on...!!"

He was licking his lips while looking around. Kaiyo frowned in disgust and turned away. Zach slightly laughed at his group of awkward classmates.

Zach snyder. Age, 15. Height, 5,7. Weight, 133lbs. Sex, Male. Magic, [Gas production]. Zach comes from a family of directors. He was destined to continue that path until he decided that he wanted to be something else. Ever since then, a hunter and protector of the people were the only thing in his mind.

The 4 people then started walking towards the volcanoes. What they didn't know was the fact that people were hiding in the bushing around them.

Or so the people in the bushes presumed.

....

Midori, Uri, Ed, Kora and Jacob were walking throughout a fake city. It was obviously voided of life in their eyes as they did.

"It seems so real.."

Midori looked around in amazement. From apartments to restaurants, it seemed so peaceful in the deserted city.

"It does, doesn't it? You think the teachers sleep here?"

Uri asked a question that made most laugh. Jacob was the loner in the group. He only really talked with others when needed. That was ingrained into his brain from birth. Dont speak unless its necessary.

"We have to stay on our feet, guys! They can throw anything at us at any time!"

Ed said robitaclly. Even though he seemed like a joke, they took his words with seriousness. Kora was the vice president of the classroom. She accepted this with kindness as it was better than nothing.

That being said, she has to keep Ed in check at time as he would stop random students if they spoke with 'Slang'. Things along that line happened daily.

They group kept walking for a bit until they saw a monster. It surprised them at first until they remembered that this school had rights to use dungeons for this sort of thing.

Students had to sign a paper stating that it's their responsibility to keep themselves safe when the teachers aren't there and a monster is present. Builds character in a way.

"Its a minotaur. Who wants to defeat it?"

Uri said while backing up. He knew he wouldn't be able to stand against that monster. Uri wore a black and pink suit with a rectangular sheath on his right and left forearms. This kept rope inside for purposes like in the Monsters Vs Predators activity.

"I-I'm gonna sit this one out.."

Minotaurs are known for their speed and durability. Strength is also a very important key figure. That's why only tanks and knights deal with them. They have a slight resistance to magic so you tend to use blunt weapons against it.

"Yeah, I'm with...her.."

Even Jacob had to agree with Kora. This only left Midori and Ed left. Seeing how they were the only two left, Midori thought back to some words that Daemon told her.

'Right now, you can only shoot out 100%. Nothing less. The way you are now, you should never use it until the time calls for it. You'd break bones when you use it, increasing pain, and decreasing mental health, leading to unconsciousness and serious bodily damage.'

She frowned at being so useless. Midori didn't have a hero complex. She didn't want to be a hero like Immeasurable or as talented as him. She only wanted to get stronger to be able to beat Kaiyo. That's why she sighed up for this school. That and because her parents told her to be something in life.

The random to help the Mc on their quest, or the Mc themselves.

"I'll support you if you want me too. But for now, I'll sit out myself.."

Midori backed away, not surprising Ed. He saw how she was always bullied by Kaiyo and he could only shake his head in disappointment. 'A magic that could be greater than Immeasurable himself! A shame that it was given to you..'

Like a track star, Ed bent down while sighing. His suit was dark blue and had white hexagons over it. Seeing him become ready for battle, the minotaur smiled. A huge axe then appeared in its hand as it slowly started walking towards them.

Each step would crease the ground as well as making a thunderous boom. Seeing how it was getting closer and closer, the students started to fear. Kora would make a huge blockade and the students sat behind it, watching the match.

Ed's shoes were then overwhelmed with metal casing. These would slow him down but leave a big impact. 'They have advanced reflexes and a strong punch...' The minotaur started running, hitting random cars for no reason.

Ed's heartbeat started getting faster and faster. One thing you should know about Ed is that he spams his most powerful moves.

Ed's body flashed and appeared only for him to already be in front of the beast. 'To kill it, you would think to aim for the heart when in reality, the horns are the best option..' Take its horns off which are connected to its brain, then you kill it.

Seeing the metal boot go for its head, the minotaur put its axe up to block. He did and only moved a little from the force of the powerful kick that made the surrounding cars shake slightly.

'What?!'

The minotaur slightly chuckled at his distraught look, making Ed force a smile. The minotaurs right leg started pulsating as it quickly moved up. Its kick connected with the side of Ed's stomach, causing him to fly across the whole city.

The students eyes widened at that. 'What? They said the max rank would be atleast E for freshman's. That kick could rival a rank D...'

Jacob analyzed the situation while the others did as well. What they didn't know was that the minotaur was injected with a power booster, making its abilites rocket.

....

Ivory and Hitome were walking through the harsh cold. Luckily, their suits provided a slight cold resistance function so they weren't gonna die like that. Well, not Ivory atleast.

"Are you sure you don't want me to use my magic on you?"

Ivory was cancelling the frostbite of the snow by changing the sensation of it. For Hitome, she felt the snow even with the cold resistance function on while Ivory was feeling heat all over her.

Each time the snow would come into contact with her, her body would be trickled into feeling heat. This required a lot of magic power, but Ivory found it useful in this situation.

"I'm-I'm sure! I-I have to do something like this on my own!"

Ivory sighed while shrugging unbeknownst to the person watching the from afar with a crosshair on their heads.

....

Mayumi, Junko, and Shino were walking throughout the forest. Shino was a little behind the two girls with his hands in his pockets. The two girls, Junko and Mayumi were hitting it off as friends.

"So tell me, is there anyone you like, Mayumi? Surely one of the boys...or girls peaked your interest.."

Junko said in a teasing voice. Becoming embarrassed, Mayumi's face became red as she looked slowly towards the ground. There was indeed a person she like and get this, it wasn't...Daemon! That's right! I actually made Daemon leave room for other guys!

"I-I think.."

She looked back to make sure Shino wasn't listening, and noticed that he was starring in their direction. Mayumi shook the thought off of him telling the others and she finally spoke..

"I-I like,...Todo.."

"Huh?"

Junko stopped walking from hearing the bizarre statement. Not only is he a battle fiend, hes stupid academically and dresses poorly in 'Commoner' type clothing.

"Y-Yeah... He treats me with care even when he doesn't try too..."

'That's not care then!'

Mayumi thought back to when she tried to high five Todo in the forest after they lost. He didn't respond to her high five which lead her to falsely believe that he was looking out for her fragile body, considering hes rough and fresh out of battle.

"W-Well, its certainly a shock, but I guess that's fine.."

Junko shivered from the idea of being his boyfriend. Would he be dangerous in bed? Would he abuse and beat you if you step out of line? These were questions that Junko thought of, but didn't ask.

Just then, Shino waved his hand and surrounded himself and his two other classmates in a small dome of bugs. In the next moment, a dart hit the bugs, making the dome ripple like a wave.

'That was close..'

Shino thought as the other girls were surprised by such an advancement. 'W- Why did he protect us? Is something going on?..' Junko then kneeled down and put her hands onto the ground. She closed her eyes, sound waves starting to emit from her palms and into the surrounding earth.

'What the?!- We've been surrounded by...people? But I though Luke-sensei said that it's only him and Black Vacum teaching us today...?'

She saw about 20 people in the woods around them. From Magic Detection, she could sense that they had almost no magic, meaning they were either babies, which they obviously wasn't, or very powerful people.

"W-Whats going on?! Shino! What's happening?!"

Mayumi freaked out as a plant was connected from her elbow and into the ground. She knew that people were around them, but she didn't know if she missed a lecture or something.

"It seems.."

The people trudged forward, each having big smiles on their faces.

"That we're being attacked by bandits.."
