Chapter 172: Dungeon Exploration (1/2)
In the end, the faculties decided to invite some guests from another school for the celebration.
Principal Mar believed that the Academy and the city needed associates if they wanted to improve further.
Before the night veiled the world, Almina, Maena, Kesha, and Miss Ice, went to the dungeon together with their party members. They were composed of an all girls party and totaled 10 members.
When they arrived, almost all eyes from other people who wished to enter the dungeon were stolen by their mere presence.
”Look it was the goddesses,” one of the people around pointed.
”Weren't they the one who reached the second deepest floor?”
”Yes, it was their group!”
”They were supposed to be the leading group who reached the deepest record, but these few days, an unknown group of people came and dominated the dungeon floors and surpassed it.”
”Looks like they want to reclaim their dominance this time.”
”No no, I heard that another group reached the same level as they.”
”Which group did you mean?”
”Hmm, they called themselves 'The Strongest' I think!”
”The Strongest? That's a bold name. Wait, I think the name rings a bell to me... Uhm... Isn't it the group of that youngman from one of the great families on the Outerworld?”
”Yes, he is from the Sun family. One of the Great Families on the Outerworld.”
”Oh, that guy! I know it! He's not only a handsome young man but also a powerful one.”
”Yeah, there were even some talks about him being the next Ace of the academy.”
”And I heard he learned some truly powerful spells these past days.”
”And many girls had a crush on him!”
”There was even gossip that the goddess Almina had a crush on him...” Whispered someone.
”Really?”
(Nod nod)
”Deym! What a lucky bastard!”
Many people were whispering around them.
”B-Big S-Sister Ice, aren't we going to enter already?” Almina asked in doubt after noticing that they were standing in front of the gate for a couple of minutes already. And they were surrounded by many people who wish to enter as well.
”Ahhh, sorry Almina!” Ice suddenly said while wearing a sorry face.
Almina and the others knitted their brows. ”What do you mean Big Sister Ace?” Maena followed with a question.
”I mean, something came up, the academy faculties wanted to send me an errand, but don't worry! In exchange for me, some groups will be joining you this time.”
”Hmm... An errand?” Kesha asks in puzzlement.
”Yes, yes! It seemed like they came up with the idea of celebration. And they wanted me to be the one sending the invitation personally.”
Ice said with a sorry face. Deep inside she wanted to travel to other places even for a little time. Being constricted inside the Underground Channel for long made her miss many things.
