Reveal the truth to a group of classmates

They left the cafeteria and headed towards the dungeon. But Lucca noticed on the map that a group of people was following them. He looked at their faces and realized they were from his class but didn't bother confronting them. Instead, he just focused on continuing to head towards the dungeon.

The group, instead of following the road, went through the forest surrounding the dungeon to avoid running into the seniors who were coming out of the dungeon. As they approached the dungeon, Lucca said, "Let's wait here for a while!" commanding the group

"Why? We have to level up as quickly as possible! Let's keep going!" replied Alice.

"Hold on, Alice! I know you want to get stronger, but it's pointless if we end up getting killed by the seniors," Lucca responded.

"What do you mean?" Ana asked, confused.

"The seniors must be near the dungeon," Nolan said.

"That's right!" said lucca

"But I can't see anything! These trees are in the way! How can you see anything?" Ana replied, climbing a tree.

"Just trust me!" Lucca said, after a while, "Run!"

The group started running and managed to enter the dungeon without being detected by anyone.

Once inside, the group had a little surprise; another group entered with them.

"You know it's forbidden to come to the dungeon, so why did you come?" asked a student from the other group.

"Apparently, you arrived just in time to catch us, haha!" Lucca laughed.

"What do you mean? Did you know we were following you?" a member of the other group asked.

"Of course, I did. You guys are terrible at tailing someone!" Lucca said, 'I'm just using a cheat' he thought to himself.

"If we're so bad, why did you let us follow you?"

"Because the dungeon is not forbidden!" Lucca revealed.

"What do you mean?" she asked, not understanding.

"Alice, please explain for me!" Lucca said.

"Why do I have to be the one to explain?" Alice asked.

"Because you were the one who told us it wasn't forbidden, so it's only fair that you explain it to them. And I've talked too much; I'm tired!" Lucca replied with sarcasm.

"Pwe" Alice sighed. "Okay, I'll explain."

She explained that there was never a prohibition for the first years, and it was all invented many years ago precisely to slow down the first years from evolving too quickly. She also explained that on the first day, they were attacked inside the dungeon, and it was very likely someone from the council sent the assassin after them!

"Now it all makes sense!" spoke the group's archer.

"So, that's why you guys hid behind that tree!" said the student from the beginning, who was the group's tank.

"So, does this mean we can start leveling up? The girl who had spoken earlier asked the tanker.

"Apparently, yes!"

"guys!" Spoke a boy with two daggers in his hands. "How do we know they're telling the truth?"

"Then don't believe us! I just know I've wasted enough time here. Let's start?" Lucca said irritably and began to leave that place.

Seeing this, the group followed Lucca, and the tank said, "Hey, hey! Are you guys leaving?"

"Of course, we are. We've explained enough to you!" replied Lucca, still irritated.

"But if this is true, we have to tell our classmates! We have to expose what our seniors are doing!" said the tank, outraged.

"Then expose us; we'll support you!" said Lucca and continued walking.

"Leader, in my opinion, we should start leveling up, shouldn't we? Since we're here? And then we think about it?" suggested the girl.

"You're right, Lara! Let's?" said the leader.

"I don't trust what they said, but I agree to level up!" said the one who seemed to be the assassin.

Lucca's group continued walking, and Lucca asked Alice, "How did you know all that information?

You're talking about the dungeon not being forbidden and what the seniors do, right?" Alice asked, hearing Lucca nodded, and she continued, "My sister and my mother warned me that this is how things work."

Lucca found Alice's tone strange; she seemed to be concerned about something, and he asked, "What's going on?"

"Nothing!" Alice replied quickly. Seeing her friend's expression, and Lucca, noticing that Alice was acting strangely, Ana became concerned.

Seeing Ana's face, Lucca realized he was right, and indeed, there was something strange in this story, but he chose not to say anything.

"Hey, hey! Finish this useless conversation! We have important things to do!" Ivy said irritably, as her hunt was being delayed because of their conversation.

After some time, they encountered a bear that, standing, must have reached 3 meters in height with sharp teeth.

The battle lasted more than 15 minutes, and finally, the bear fell to the ground without a head.

{You killed a level 35 bear}

They continued their hunt.

{You killed a colossal beetle of level 36}

{You killed a giant spider of level 39}

"Shall we start hunting above level 40?" Lucca asked.

"I agree; it's too easy!" Ivy agreed.

"OK, let's!" Alice agreed with the group. And they moved on until they found a level 45 jaguar.

The battle was quite complicated because the jaguar moved very fast, so hitting anything became quite problematic, and they spent more time dodging attacks than actually causing damage until.

{You killed a level 45 forest jaguar}

Right after the jaguar's death, the group ran to the edge of the dungeon to exit.

But halfway there, Lucca opened his status window.
