I went to chase after him in order to silence him, but he was already long gone… but his words seemed reasonable, so I let them float within my mind.
After a few more minutes of carefully sneaking around, I arrived at the first tent, but when I went to slowly open it, I felt arge amount of killing intent graze the back of my neck.
FWOOSH
I immediately ducked, dodging the sword aimed straight for my neck.
After recovering with a roll to the side, I led the two boys behind the tent in order to not garner the attention of the teachers, who I strangely couldn''t find.
It seems that kid was right… These two were a few steps ahead of me.
"Seems the informant was right. He actually came to this exact tent," One of the boys with slick brown hair chuckles as he grips the spear in his hand.
The other one also held a spear, and he took the first few steps toward me.
"Let''s double team him,"
"Got it,"
The two boys dashed towards me, but I immediately activated my favorite skill: [Seventh Sword].
My family is a family that specializes in swords, and the only skill books we have collected are the ones that give sword skills… and the best one is this.
Suddenly, my sword doubled, then tripled, then quadrupled, and continued to duplicate until six identical des floated around me.
They all mirrored the one in my hand, and as if I was a conductor in an orchestra, I raised my sword up, causing the swords flying around me to spin around the tip of my de.
As I nced down at the boys, I noticed they had also prepared their signature moves, ready to kill me.
Their spears had been coated in bright blue mes, and their smiles were demonic.
This is the first time I''ve evere at somebody with the intent to kill, so I was a bit nervous.
It was always to induce fear or severely harm them… but now the time hase for me to take a life.
"ARGHHHH!"
It was a stupid cry that we three unleashed as we charged toward each other.
We knew that we had to keep it down; otherwise, the teachers would find out, and we would most likely be expelled from the school… but it was strange.
The adrenaline made it feel as if this was the only thing that mattered in the world.
The two boys in front of me, strange to say, were my entire world as of now, and ughtering them was the only thing on my mind.
CLASH
…
"Yes, I had a bad feeling, and what do you know, there was a pack of wolves right next to the boss room," I informed the three teachers as we gazed at the tall stone doors.
We were currently in front of the boss room, and I was making sure that they couldn''t hear the three kids shing.
Of course, I baited them all.<sub> </sub>
First, I encountered the singr boy who had just crawled out of his tent and made sure he went the long way by emitting some bloodlust.
He''s too inexperienced to distinguish between monster bloodlust and human bloodlust, so he easily danced in the center of my palm.
Next, as he was taking the long way, I went to the pair of brothers and gave them information that the singr boy nned to go to their tent and kill them.
They were as smart as I thought and mulled over it for a bit but kept a level head as they tried to distinguish if my information was fake or not.
But, all I had to do was show a bit of credibility by announcing some information that I got by carefully watching them.
Well, I''ve been carefully watching everybody.
"Fine," They said but threatened me a bit before leaving.
"If he doesn''t show up, you''re dead,"
I just gave them a smile before leaving and then quickly maneuvering over to the weapons tent where I, of course, found the singr boy.
He was rummaging through the selection of swords like a rat, and I couldn''t help but chuckle before revealing myself.
"I didn''te for a fight. I just wanted to warn you that you''re not ahead as you think,"
These words were articry picked so it would create a bit of trust between us and ced a bit of stress, though I didn''t know if thedder actually worked.
I feel like I created a bit too much trust as emotions can bloat to something that is out of character for anybody under severe pressure.
So, before the battle started, I led the teachers to the front of the boss room under the guise of "wolves congregating near the boss room entrance."
As I didn''t know this was going to happen, I couldn''t bring anything to actually make this part of the ne to life, so I just had to receive the scolding that urred once they figured out everything I said was fake.
Plus, they scolded me tons for leaving the campsite without permission... and even gave me an unreasonable punishment!
No breakfast!? Are you serious!?
"Geez… You''re lucky we''ve cleared most of the wolves for this time around; otherwise, we wouldn''t have even batted an eye,"
That''s true.
Though it was a bit quick, there was still a bit of thought behind this action as normally, the teachers would need to protect the students, but the number of wolves approaching has essentially dropped to zero.
Remember, these wolves are smart, but you can utilize that to your advantage… ugh, exining the rest is such a pain, so I''ll just sum it up.
Wolf smart so wolf no attack people who kill other wolf many time.
There.
"*yawn*... Alright. Let''s head back. The time to wake up is approaching soon anyway, so I guess I''ll keep an eye on the dungeon door JUST in case his worries were right,"
"Sure," The other two, who were unfamiliar men, nodded in agreement.
As soon as we made our dash towards the camp, I acted fast and immediately went into the tent of who I thought was the winner.
"Well, well, well… How was it?"
