Regret;

As their fight continued Kerren got bored with it and started overpowering the orc.

Kerren made it look natural, as if he got used to his fighting style or something like that, he started landing more punched that struck even harder!

Under such a barrage the orc couldn't help but scream from time to time, as Kerren's fists really did do a lot of damage to him!

As he found an opening, he managed to jump on the orc and started hitting him in the head!

After a few hits the orc fell on the ground. Kerren didn't stop until he smashed his head completely.

When he finally stopped he stood up. All of the students looked at him in astonishment...

This guy just ki*led an orc with his bare hands! What a monster he was!

Of course, this orc was way weaker than those he met in the battlefield dungeon he raided some time ago, but he could still kill any of those students with one punch.

What made it even easier... this orc didn't even have a weapon! That was, however, also a bad thing, since Kerren would have to fight the next one with his bare hands again... but so what!?

He will only gain more respect from students around him if he did that! More than that, teachers and rectuitors who observed the fight were shocked even more than the students!

This orc was a "C" rank orc! None of them could overpower him in raw strength! It their eyes... Kerren was a perfect person to scout!

As such, they started deeping under him, in hopes of finding something that would allow them to attract him easily, whether it's money, women or artefacts!

Maybe his mother was sick or something like that? They would offer to heal her if he joined their guild or whatever!

Of course, Kerren knew that he made a show by doing what he just did, but still pretended that it was not a big deal, as if he was humble.

...

Some time later students around him decided to follow him. Even the previous leader of the group they just met followed Kerren willingly!

It made things much easier for him, as he didn't even need to persuade people. They saw his strength, what is there to be afraid of?

This guy killed an orc with his bare hands! Could he rip a goblin in half, then?! Well, they didn't know that, but Kerren could rip orcs easily, it's just that it was too much for his current persona...

As they walked in a direction the previous leader told him about, where he supposedly split up with other groups, students in the group conversed betwen each other.

Many tried to befriend Kerren or something similiar, some girls even tried to flirt with him! He, however, wasn't even answering any of them!

He only made some "shush" sounds if they were too loud, that's all he did.

He was too busy thinking about the structure of the dungeon and the reason behind it.

Why would they put orcs here!? No normal student would be able to beat them! Yeah, they were somewhat weak and all that, but what about non-awakened students?

There must be something else to this dungeon, and if Kerren "broke" their plan by saving students... Won't they summon something even stronger?

Maybe their whole plan was to show students what fear is?.. It could be a thing, since Kerren knew how many horrible things the goverment did in his previous life...

Oh, right. They're doing it now! It was one of the reasons he didn't want to do anything with them. Those people made many, many experiment on humans, and he almost got captured by them in his previous life!

If you still remember it, i'm talking about the camp that Kerren was supposed to go when he just reincarnated. It was this place that... broke him... the first time, there were many more things that made him who he is...

Of course, those are stories for another time, since spilling out all the beans right now isn't that great and... we dont really have time.

Kerren found another group of students, not one, but two! And, they were arguing... Is it some sort of a custom to argue whenever u're supposed NOT to do that under any circumstance?..

Well, whatever it was - he didn't care. He approached the group as he greeted the arguing leaders...

- Sup, people, have you seen any orcs yet?

Kerren was all smiles when he said it, he even reached his hand to both of them, but none returned the gesture...

They simply looked at him and his bloody hand.

- Did he say orcs?..

One of the "new" students asked amidst the silence...

Some of the students were taken aback, some were scared because Kerren's hands were covered in blood, and some just looked lost.

As people just stood there, one of the leaders decided to ask Kerren...

- So... -- he looked at Kerren's hands -- You've met orcs?..

- I sure did, as you can see. -- Kerren put his hands on the level of his face.

- Dont lie, you're not even awakened, you must've killed some random student to scare us into joining you!

The second leader, however, wasn't as chill as the first one. He immediately accused Kerren of something insane.

- You're, of course, lying, but if you continue talking to me like that your words will become truth... friend.

He added the last word after a pause as he momentarily forgot that he supposed to play a timid and shy guy... His bloodthirst could be explained, but he was too agressive at the moment...

The leaked who barked at him, however, didn't even understand what Kerren just meant and continued spewing bullcr*p...

- Smart*ss! If you want to fight me - let's go! But dont try to steal my group for me, you understand!?

People around him looked strangely at the guy, to some it seemed like he was insane, some assumed that it was his first time being at least somewhat important and he didn't want to lose that feeling of being above others...

Whatever it was... Kerren didn't care...

- Okay, whatever. If any of you want to follow me you're free to do so, i'm going to hunt orcs. Ask my group if u're hesitating.

He immediately transferred all of the questions to people near him. Why would he not? They must do at least something!

He himself sat under a random tree and started thinking about the possible outcomes.

First of all... if he killed the boss all alone it would be suspicious, he couldn't do that, but how could he use those people? Yeah, some were awakened, but they were just mo*onic students with god syndrome! They're not useful at all, the opposite even!

Second... Where can he even find the boss? Judging by the fact he found the first orc on random and he was alone... the boss could be a wandering one aswell, thus, he will need to find him somehow... It was easier said than done!

Even if this fores wasn't small, so what!? It'll still take a lot of time, and he wont even get anything for thinking so much about such a useless thing!

He started cursing at himself for participating here, why couldn't he just skip it!?
