- A week before Majorca's departure in the evening.

In Yokohama City, Kanagawa Prefecture.

"Yes, thank you all! I'm a little happy to be here again with the four of us in Group 26."

Tachibana starts talking with a beer-filled jock.

The other three stare at it with a smile.

This is a seafood tavern in Yokohama.

The menu is lined with slightly more expensive seafood dishes and slightly better alcohol, giving you a festive atmosphere today.

In the private room of the tavern, there were four members of the 26th group, Katsunori Mizue, Kota Kusatsu, Kayo Tachika, and Noriji Tenjo, who had passed the examination together in the Chariot entrance exam.

As adults, Tachihua and Kusatsu had a golden beer in one hand, and two minor students were holding the juice. By the way, the river is grape juice and the tenge is orange juice.

"And Mizue-kun! Congratulations again on joining Chariot!

"Congratulations, Mizue!

"Congratulations!"

"Ah, ahh... thank you"

Mizue leaned a little shy.

I've seen signs since the dungeon, but apparently Mizue isn't used to being praised very straight.

In response to such an age-appropriate reaction, the adults inadvertently loosen their cheeks.

"And Tenji! I heard you've officially decided to study in Majorca Escuela! It's amazing! Congratulations!"

"Congratulations, Tenjo-kun!

Oh, I'm so glad.

Next, Tenge is greatly praised.

Tenji also moved his mouth against his mouth as he was aged, laughing happily.

"Thank you!"

They exchanged contacts after the exam.

Mizue and Tachihua were immediately connected to Tenji, but Kusatsu was not immediately connected. Afterwards, Mizue asked Chariot for his contact information, and this "Celebration and Exhaustion" was realized in the clear.

They are communicating on the chat about their respective paths and somehow attend the meeting knowing where everyone is going.

Well then! Congratulations to both of you on your way out... well done!! Cheers!!

"" "Good day!

On Tachibana's signal, everyone exchanged glasses.

Soon the adults started drinking beer and breathed heavily. The teenagers didn't know how to have a drinking party, and usually drank a lot of juice.

That's when I started to work on the delicious seafood dishes.

Sashimi sashimi sashimi, fried seafood, tempura, etc.

Tenge sparkled the delicious rice in front of her.

(Fufufufu ♪ Today it's a luxury for Fukuyama-san, so let's eat a lot!

While singing a song in his heart, Tenji quickly stretched his chopsticks to the shrimp tempura.

Unfortunately, I couldn't attend today's meeting because Fukuyama was busy. I invited her, but apparently she was pretty chopped up, and Mizue said, "Now you've eaten a lot! They just gave me the money.

Still, they gave me quite a sum of money, so I decided to hold this meeting at a slightly expensive shop.

"Still, I was surprised to hear from you. Mizue thought it was amazing, but I can't believe you're really joining Chariot. I'm kind of proud to just have qualified people in the same group."

"Stop it, you won't get a compliment."

Until Kusatsu was contacted, he only knew the "three successful candidates" that he saw on the news, and he didn't know who actually passed and failed.

So Mizue contacted me, and when I created a chat in Group 26, I found out that Mizue was one of the three people who passed.

"It's humble. I'm still happy."

Well, thank you. I'll take it.

"Yes, yes! What will Kusatsu do now?

Tachihua raised her hand vigorously to ask questions to help the shylocked-out river.

"Me? Well... I haven't decided yet, but I'd like to work on a dungeon. Through this exam, I think my feelings have grown stronger. I think it was a really good experience."

"Speaking of which, you said you were studying dungeons at college."

"Yeah, I was working on an algorithm for the black cocoon."

"A black cocoon?... that? Does that mean... Tokyo University students? Surely, the only research on black cocoons was in Japan, right?

"Hmm? Didn't I tell you? Yes, it is. I'm studying under Professor Yosanagi."

When they first heard of Kusatsu's circumstances, they opened their eyes to surprise.

Professor Kenzo Kenzo of Yosanagi.

No one in the world will know this name. He is so famous as a researcher and a great man certified by an association of only twelve in the world.

His distinctive studies include "Papers on Black Cocoon Occurrence."

A black cocoon is a giant black cocoon that appears suddenly on the ground all over the world. It is also called a monster's egg, from which vicious monsters emerge at the end of a certain period of growth.

This black cocoon is known as a very troubling natural disaster that appears everywhere, regardless of the dungeon gate. The locations of occurrence varied, and it has been deemed impossible to identify them, such as on the sea, in the mountains, and in urban areas.

However, Professor Wakagi was able to elucidate the algorithm.

Unfortunately, this information has not been made available to the general public, and is available only to associations and the upper echelons of the country.

Under such a famous professor, Kusatsu said he was doing research.

It would be impossible for the three of us to be surprised.

"That's amazing."

Yeah, I'm surprised.

"Oh, really!? I'm kind of shocked that I'm the only one here. I thought Kusatsu-san was my friend!"

Tachibana began to squeeze her cheeks as she only had amazing people around her.

But Mizue immediately objected.

"No, I don't think everyone was normal in the first place when I was at that exam. Chariot can't choose a normal person. Isn't that right?"

Tachihua swollen her cheeks even more to the conclusion that there was no sound.

"I know, but I'm still a little short! Kusatsu, who is studying under the famous Professor Wakagi, Mizue, who has decided to join Chariot, and Tenji, who has decided to study at the famous Majorca Escuela.

"Oh, I'm sure the tenge isn't normal, and we're not the same."

"Hey!?

"Really? I was more surprised when I honestly heard about Tenjo's route. Maggiorca Escuela... I want to see that other world with my own eyes."

"... everybody, really stop."

"" I won't stop. ""

* Giggle * and the three of them laughed like teasing.

As he watches, Tenge responds with his shoulders raised.

"No, but I'm not talking about the level of envy."

"That's right! I'm famous because I can't even go to Majorca Escuela!? It's absolutely impossible unless you run out of luck for the rest of your life."

"Sure, you can't go without the 'frame', right?

Kusatsu didn't seem to know much about Majorca Escuela and opened his mouth to ask questions.

Mizue answers the question.

I see. I've heard that each of the Explorer High Schools in an active country in the dungeon industry is framed one by one. There must have been one in Japanese Explorer High School... couldn't Tenge use that frame?

It's already been used.

"I see, is someone already going? All we have to do is... pick up the frame from someone who has it personally. Like this tenge."

"Frame... is it like the right to enroll?

Kusatsu asks the question again.

"That's right. Maggiorca Escuela's enrollment slots are set for each grade, and the president there seems to be distributing them accordingly. Majorca Dungeon has a limited number of people to live in, so there's nothing you can do about it."

"Is that number publicly available?

"Sure... 45 in the first grade. Five-year school from 16 to 20. Isn't that right? Tenge"

"Yeah, that's right. That's why the frame I was given this time was for the first grade. [M] Overseas, summer is the beginning of a new semester, so it is a form of enrollment as a first-year student who is a little late. Well, formally, it stays in the form of studying abroad."

Well, overseas, that was just the beginning of the new semester.

There was only one topic entirely on everyone's mind: Majorca Escuela.

Tachibana, who had not participated in the conversation, listened as she chewed the seafood like a squirrel.

"Hee ~, I've heard about it on the news a few times, but it's amazing after all. I knew there was a city in the dungeon, and there were monsters walking outside the city."

"Well, from the standpoint of the general public, that's probably how much recognition it is. But that's why Tenge wants to go there, isn't it? The privilege of allowing students to enter and exit the dungeon."

"Yeah, I've always wanted free access to all levels of the dungeon."

"Well, in Japan, you can't enter unless you apply to the association, and if you're a student, you can't get dungeon experience."

"What? Can students freely enter and exit the dungeon in Majorca?

Kusatsu shouted instantly.

In Japan, it is common sense that it is time to deepen learning as a "student still exists to be protected". So, even when Tenge was in distress in the dungeon, the Association was more worried than necessary.

But not in Majorca.

The country is unique and has the custom of treating students as solo explorers.

It is not normal for everyone to go there, and only talented geniuses from all over the world can go there. That's why.

For these reasons, Majorca Escuela also gives students the right to enter and exit the dungeon freely.

I mean, the school is in the dungeon in the first place, so I don't have any permission.

"Yes, that's why people from all over the world want to migrate. But you can't basically break the walls or anything in the dungeon. Even if the original" city "inside can be expanded, it cannot be rebuilt from scratch. Therefore, there is a limit to the number of people who can live there."

"Well, that's fascinating. Even the students have free access to the dungeon, and the landscape is spreading like a different world, right? I'm just worried about that word. Tenjo-kun, take lots of pictures if you like!

Yes, I'll take it if I have time.

Tenji replied with a smile.

In this way, the tired party gets excited while touching on various topics.

† † †

A tired party was approaching.

Mizue is drinking a tail of grape juice, and Kusatsu is rubbing her stomach and keeping her waist on her back.

Tenge was still eating rags and leftover seafood.

Tachibana stared at such a tenge from the side with fun. I didn't wonder where such an appetite would come from with that slender body.

"Speaking of which, Tachihua. Have you decided what to do? You're gonna take another entrance exam, aren't you?

"Yes! I'm still in college for two years, so I'll try again and again until graduation! Well, you only have two more. Mizue-kun introduced me to my master, so I'll show you a little resistance to the future."

"Well, I'm waiting for another day to fight next door."

"Yes! I will definitely accept it this time!

Tachibana lighted up her eyes and returned her words to Mizue, who might become senpai.

Mizue also glanced at the mood.

In this way, the path of the 26th group was decided.

Mizue will officially join Chariot six months later.

It seems that Tachibana will spare no effort to become an explorer in her remaining two years of college life. I was willing to encourage under my new mentor.

It seems that Kusatsu is not confined to explorers, but is looking for work in a wide range of fields related to dungeons. Even so, I'm still a fourth-year college student. Kusatsu is probably the most opaque about what happens. Still, just the students who were doing the research under Professor Wakagi will definitely pull it off.

Tenge was officially decided a few days ago to study in Majorca Escuela, and Majorca just sent me an official admission permit.

It was this group that started with a ruthless mood at first, but finally got along well until we got in touch.

Each of them was to follow a different path, but one day might come when the road would come together again.

They secretly expected that day.
