Chapter 134 Doubt
"You've never had cake before?"
Myra asked curiously, and Kain nodded in response frankly. This reminded Myra of Kain's background, which originally had no access to something like cakes.
In a way, this was a little strange to Myra, because the image of Kain in her mind had always been of a learned man. It was strange that he could not know common sense.
"What are these, I will take you to eat something even better."
Mera didn't pay much attention to it, and declared to Kain. He just smiled and said.
"I'm looking forward to it."
Kain spoke honestly. He had not known before that cuisine was so rich that it could create such a complex dish. With many ingredients mixed together, these ingredients combined with each other, their properties combined with each other, finally giving rise to this result.
Whoever created the cake was a genius.
Your journey continues at empire
Kain enjoyed it with satisfaction.
Afterwards, the two girls asked him about his recent past, but Kain only answered vaguely, interspersed with a few interesting stories he had come across, completely not mentioning events such as the killing of the twin brothers Horon and Horan.
Obviously, both of them could feel that Kain was hiding something, but if he didn't say anything, there was nothing they could do.
Finally, the meeting ended, Kain said goodbye to Myra and Mera to return to the dormitory.
"Sister, do you think asking Kain was the right choice?"
After Kain left, Myra and Mera had a short conversation.
And so Mera said. This made Myra frown.
"What do you mean? Kain still isn't good enough?"
"You know what I'm talking about! You know how dangerous this survival mission is. And I..."
"What are you doing? Can't you let him die? Don't be so naive, Mera."
"We signed a contract, I also asked and he offered to help, I didn't force him. Mera, that path... we can't go without help."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
"Sister... you still can't let go?"
Mera's voice suddenly became soft, but Myra remained resolute.
"These are the things I have to do, if you don't agree, it's best to stand aside."
Myra had always been the exemplary big sister, but whenever it came to that issue, she became incredibly grumpy. Even Mera couldn't convince her.
In the end, all that remained was a sigh.
…
Kain returned to the dormitory, which was now empty.
It seems his roommate Hardy hasn't returned yet.
After cleaning up some small things, Kain couldn't wait to jump into the large bathtub, letting the hot water wash over his entire body to clean away all the dirt and fatigue.
Myra had told him about the upcoming survival mission, but the necessary information was scant.
This task is roughly as follows:
"Survive for a month."
"Can invite aid."
"The location is the first floor of the Misty Dungeon."
Simple, easy to understand, but because of that, it also contains many difficult to understand details.
Survive for a month, but it is unclear if this is mandatory.
It was possible to invite aid. This was quite obvious, the students in the combat department would usually not invite combat aid, because they themselves were the best. Kain assumed that the people they would invite would mainly be Magus who possessed [Life Magic] with healing abilities, acting as medics.
The location will be on the first floor of the Misty Dungeon, which is quite interesting.
First of all, the location where they would carry out the survival mission would be on the first floor of the Dungeon, this was indisputable. But the problem was... where would they be on the first floor? One had to know that even a medium sized Dungeon was already very large. A large sized Dungeon was even more unimaginably large.
Second, the room of the first floor's guardian monster also belongs to the first floor's range. There is a transitional corridor there that is an absolutely safe area, so if they hide there until the time limit expires, will they be considered to have passed?
This is indeed a thought provoking question.
Having finished bathing and cleansing his soul, Kain dressed in his uniform and went to the library where he had borrowed books many times.
The academy's library is a somewhat ancient building, built relatively symmetrically on both sides and high in the middle, decorated with glass panels that sparkle in the daylight.
Above the entrance, there is a line of embossed letters.
"Knowledge is a fire, as long as it is not extinguished, we shall never go astray."
It was a rather meaningful quote, though Kain had no idea who it came from.
Unfortunately, the library is always empty.
Kain entered with not a soul in sight, it was completely deserted.
"Ah Kain, you... are back?"
A somewhat timid voice rang out from not far away. Kain recognized it as the librarian he had become acquainted with after coming here to borrow books for a long time.
She was a short girl with shoulder-length hair and thick glasses that slid down her nose. This made her delicate face look a bit nerdy.
"Katie, it's nice to see you again."
"I... I'm very happy to see you again too."
Katie replied in her usual timid voice. Kain was already used to her way of speaking, so he wasn't shy.
After greetings, Kain began to walk in and search for the information he was looking for.
Looking at Kain's attentive appearance from afar, Katie shyly glanced back several times, the book in front of her turned out not to be that attractive.
In fact, Kain's reputation wasn't as bad as he thought, especially after the incident where he had three types of magic at once was revealed.
With his appearance, at least the girls wouldn't hate him for no reason, some even had the intention of approaching him, unfortunately except for class time, Kain almost never showed his face. On top of that, every time he was in class, Myra and Mera were always by his side.
But there are a few exceptions. Like Katie.
