    <span style="font-weight:400">"What?! You''re going out to explore another dungeon?!" Cadmus almost spat out his food. Are you kidding me?! They explored a dungeon not that long ago. Especially so with this kid! That guy went to a S-rank dungeon by himself!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Yes, we''re going to another dungeon for training." Keith nodded as he ate his steak.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Then what about the food?" That was the only thing he cared about!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Rx. I will prepare some meals before we go. So don''t worry about anything." He nced at Aidiun and Diana. Those two were going to keep watch over it.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Understood. The dorm mother and manager understood the task.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Good." Cadmus was content as he continued to eat.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Before we head to the dungeon, we need to cram!" Keith pped his hand.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Eh?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Don''t "eh," me. We all need to get our studies in before we can go. We''re going to skip at least a few days." Herrick and Melor would definitely fail if they skipped.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Come on!" Herrick and Melor wanted to cry.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Professor Aidiun will test you. If you guys fail, you don''t get toe along with us." Keith had a devious grin.


    <span style="font-weight:400">The carrot and the stick.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Then we will pass!" The two roared! There was no way they could fail. Not when they had the chance to explore another dungeon!


    <span style="font-weight:400">Scarlet nudged Alfia, "Are they always like this?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Yep, he has then hooked, line, and sinker." The others could only watch this. Keith could order Herrick and Melor left and right if he wanted.


    <span style="font-weight:400">...


    <span style="font-weight:400">The next day, Carolyn entered the ssroom. But when she did, she had an intrigued expression. What''s going on? She asked Keith, "Is there something wrong with them?" She was talking about Herrick and Melor; the two had intense looks. What made it weird was what they had before them. They were looking down at some books.


    <span style="font-weight:400">That in itself was strange.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Stuff." Keith had a mischievous grin.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Carolyn turned to Alfia and the others, who shook their heads. I see. So he did something again.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"By the way, we''re going to a dungeon again. Do you want toe with us?" Having Carolyn with them would be great. She was a mage with quite a high attack power.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"When are we going?" Carolyn was excited. Going to another dungeon was going to be great.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"In two days."


    <span style="font-weight:400">Hearing this, that excitement died down, "I can''t do that. I have ns in these few days."


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Ahh, I see. You really have a lot of things to do. Are you alright? You''re not overworking yourself, right?"


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I''m fine. You don''t need to worry about it. I can take care of myself." Carolyn shook her head.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"...Alright."


    <span style="font-weight:400">Alfia wanted to say something to Keith when,


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Come on! Why is this so hard?!" Herrick mmed his head onto the table as he groaned. None of this was going through to his head! What he needed was a new brain or something to absorb all this information.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Let me see what''s going on." A sigh came out of Keith''s mouth. Keith would be there to help them when they were having a difficult time.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"What are we going to do?!" Herrick wanted to cry. Aidiun was going to have a test for them tomorrow.


    <span style="font-weight:400">The only thing they could do was to cram like no tomorrow!


    <span style="font-weight:400">...


    <span style="font-weight:400">"The two of them look so tense." Gabriel and the others stared at the two. They had such a serious expression, ready to destroy the world.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"I don''t think I could tease them either." Even Alfia felt kinda bad for the two.


    <span style="font-weight:400">"Let''s begin." Aidiun handed the test over to the two. And like that, Herrick and Melor started to move.


    <span style="font-weight:400">Aidiun stared at the two''s test. Whatever happened next was going to determine their fate!


    <span style="font-weight:400">"You guys passed by the skin of your teeth again."
