Chapter 131: Dawn of Heroes

The next day,

After finishing my morning routine, I went to the lobby.

The renovated lobby was so luxurious that it reminded me of a luxury hotel.

I walked down the hallway to the dining area.

The dining area on the second floor was also neat and tidy. In the middle was a long table with a white tablecloth. And that's where Jenna had breakfast.

Hey Oppa, Are you awake?

Jenna looked at me and waved.

She murmured, waving her hand. Bread, bacon, and meat stew were placed in front of her.

Strangely enough, today's breakfast is really delicious. Thanks to you, I can eat my fill.

Jenna put a piece of bacon in her mouth.

Her eyes seemed to be shining with joy.

Of course. This makes sense if there are fewer people to feed.

I pulled up a chair and sat down next to Jenna.

Until yesterday, there was only one piece of meat in the stew, and the bacon was incredibly tough. The bread was hard and dry. Apart from the ingredients, I didn't have enough time to cook it. Only two cooks had to prepare meals for 35 people.

Since the number of people has been reduced by more than half, the amount of ingredients consumed per person has increased significantly, and the preparation time has also increased. Gone are the days when chefs worked tirelessly.

The heroes on the first floor may be peeling potatoes right now.

Jenna kept humming her song while eating.

Jenna's skin looked extraordinarily glowing, perhaps because she spent the whole night in the bathhouse. I also received my own food and started eating.

After dinner, Jenna and I headed to the square.

The seats on the second floor were empty. That was expected. The lazy people who chatted early in the morning did not come upstairs. Either they were up all night sleeping, or they had already gone to the facility or practice field.

Opened the door to the training field.

There was Aaron thrusting a spear into a wooden doll.

This guy was at the practice range late yesterday and was the first one to come to the practice range today. We were the fastest, except for Aaron. The after-party activity time was a little later than ours.

Haven't you arrived yet?

Aaron greeted me as he folded his spear.

I sighed and spoke.

Did you sleep at least 4 hours?

I think it was about 3 hours.

You are truly amazing.

With a precise movement, the tip of the spear pierced the wooden dummy.

Aaron finished the exercise and came over to us. Basic physical training began as usual.

The most significant change to the Level 3 training area was the addition of a separate training room and sparring area.

Each training room was separated by a wall and could be locked from the inside. Offensive practice, which used to be done only in the early morning hours, can now be done without having to worry about seeing each other.

The sparring area refers to the raised platform in the center of the training area on the second floor.

There were stairs to go up, and it was surrounded by iron bars. What is different from other areas is that high-speed recovery is not possible. The healing trick using waiting room properties didn't work here. This meant that sparring took place under the same conditions as a real match. Of course, if you are seriously injured, you must be rescued immediately.

After about 30 minutes, Eorca appeared, yawning.

Eorca calmly looked at us as we walked along the tracks, and then she entered the magic room. Eorca's training break was until today. But that didn't mean she was a failure. Eorca lacked the training for her physical strength, so she studied magic in the hall library.

After a while, a second group joined, and we had enough staff for the day.

As usual, a busy day has begun. I came to take a look at the space on the first floor during a break from training. Unlike a few days ago, there were hardly any people around. Most were either on the training ground or learning skills from support heroes in facilities.

They both look promising.

I peeked through the open door of the training area on the first floor.

In the training area on the first floor, Velquist fought one-on-one with other heroes. He had a real sword, even though it was a spar. It was probably Verquist's idea. Apart from the first group, Verquist was the only one to use a real sword during sparring.

A violent personality. Fearless. Talented.

For example, Velquist's newly awakened ability "Wild" was a rare ability with an acquisition rate of less than 1%. It was something different from calm and enthusiasm. Wild converts mental states such as fear and anger into combat power, and when combined with the ability to inflict a forced mental state, it has a great synergistic effect.

I turned my gaze in another direction.

A cool-looking woman with short black hair violently attacked the wooden doll with a thin sword. Nerissa Lyor. She was a dual-wielder who could alternately wield a short sword and a dagger.

Although her combat power itself is inferior to Velquist's, her personality is generally calm and collected. Additionally, she had an uncanny instinct for special operations such as stealth, ambush, and intelligence gathering. With proper training, she will grow into a fine villainous heroine.

You don't have to read the rest.

Every time Velquist swings his sword, someone always flinches.

The three of them worked together, but they could not pose any real threat. Nerissa was the only one who could pose a threat. Even though they convened around the same time, the differences have become noticeable.

Verquist, who had the three of them lying on the ground, looked at me and grinned.

I couldn't hear the sound, but I understood the meaning.

Do you want to try it too?

You arrogant brat.

I laughed and drew my sword.

I then entered the training area on the first floor.

As expected, Velquist was not my opponent.

After you fool around for a while, things should be quiet for a while. He deserves praise for being able to withstand the pain even when his entire body was being attacked.

After practicing until the evening, Anytng logged in.

After sending off the low-level heroes he recruited yesterday on another mission, Anytng began touring dungeons during the day. After facility level 4, various materials such as ore, wood, and leather are required. In the future, a new role will be introduced: agricultural collectors.

And then,

[First group, assemble!]

Three days had passed since Izel called.

Having finished the training plan, I stood up from my seat, where I had been analyzing the situation in the waiting room from my room on the second floor. After organizing the data, I came to the plaza, where the other members of the First Party had gathered besides me.

Oh, going up and down is so tiring. [Am I getting old too?]

Izel pouted and clapped him on the shoulder.

Eorca interrupted Izel's appeal with her lack of interest.

What's going on? Are we climbing to a new floor?

That's not new ground. One person is missing.

I said.

The last members of parties 1 and 2 have not been captured yet.

The situation was different from the 15th floor.
