An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being Chapter 137

Episode 137: Emergency System

“Good morning everyone. As some of you may have seen on the news, a completely cumbersome law has been enacted. The Explorer Mobilization Law. With this, all people over the age of 12 who have an explorer aptitude will be dispatched in case of emergency. For that reason, humans who have not yet awakened as explorers will immediately take an aptitude test, and those who are apt will basically belong to an organization designated by the Union and undergo a combat ability improvement program. And this school is also listed as a designated institution. Therefore, we have decided to move to the Emergency System from today. Those who live nearby will be assigned here. Does anyone have any questions so far?”

 In the morning's homeroom, Shikiyamsensei, the homeroom teacher, tells us that with the new law coming into force, this school will also lend its support to its development.

 Well, this school puts a lot of effort into training explorers, so it's only natural.

“Here!!”

 That Aki is the first to raise his hand.

 As always, he has great energy.

“Aki, is it. We're in the middle of a serious conversation right now. If you ask me a strange question, I won't let it go.”

“I understand. What will happen to the class?”

 Seeing Aki raise his hand, the teacher glares at him with a dubious expression, but after Aki shows a wry smile, he asks a perfectly reasonable question.

 That also worries me.

“Hmm. Surprisingly decent. Regarding the class as Aki just asked, explorers are basically exempt. Ordinary people continue their classes as they are. It seems that you don't have time to study much. Stampedes are happening everywhere. Currently, security organizations and Explorer Unions are dealing with it all together, but if it increases further, bankruptcy is imminent. In other words, strength is needed right away. Improving your fighting ability is the top priority. The cirriculum that was originally organized by the Dungeon Exploration Club has been abolished. There are exceptions, but it will be a form of having one leader accompany several parties to raise their level and combat skills. Got it?”

“Understood.”

 Hmm. The law is enforced, so they're moving to that system from today, right?

“Anyone else have questions?”

“Yes.”

The next person to raise their hand was Aiuchi. A cool beauty who says things quite clearly. She is the class representative for this class.

“What is it, Aiuchi?”

“Will the system change even today?”

“Yes.”

“So, are we going to dive into the dungeon right away?”

 That's exactly what I wanted to ask.

“That's right. After this, those who have become explorers will immediately be summoned to the Dungeon Exploration Building and will be given an explanation. Basically, you guys have already received guidance and are accustomed to dungeon exploration, so you don't need a leader. Until the government lifts the state of emergency, you're going to dive into the dungeons with the parties you've formed in the Dungeon Exploration Department and earnestly raise your levels. Of course there are holidays. As for the dungeons, you will mainly choose them yourselves, but there are times when the Exploration Department will specify the appropriate dungeons. Please follow the directions of the Exploration Department in that area.”

“Understood.”

 I see.

 In other words, me, Shia, and Amane should just dive into any dungeon and level up. It's no different than the dungeon exploration I've done with Shia until now.

Come and read on our website wuxia worldsite. Thanks

 In that case, currently leveling up in the Shushima Dungeon would be the most efficient around here. I don't know, but it seems that Bonus Monsters over there are worth a lot of experience points and are easy to level up. I don't know, but …

 I'm unhappy …

 As the name suggests, the Bonus Monsters magic stones sell at a high price and are worth a lot of experience points.

 Now that this is the situation, wouldn't it be better to reveal my ability to Amane to some extent and sneak into the dungeon that was closed using the power of the shadow?

 It seems that there are unknown monsters, and she's never met them, but she's strong, so I think it's probably fine.

“Then, it seems there are no more questions. As I said earlier, the explorers will gather at the exploration building immediately. The others will continue their classes as usual. That's it, dismissed.”

 Saying that, Shikiyamsensei leaves the classroom.

 It seems that the question time ended while I was thinking.

 I didn't listen to the last part at all, but I wonder if it's okay to just ask Aki later.

“It's basically the same flow as we were talking about at breakfast.”

“Oh, yeah.”

 Aki turns around and talks to me, so I nod in agreement.

“I'm worried about my little sister, but let's go to the Exploration Building quickly.”

“I'm curious about your siscon degree, but let's go.”

“Shia.”

“Hmm.”

 Shia seems to understand what I want to say just by calling her name, and we stand up together.

“Middle-aged couple?”

“It's different.”

 Seeing how we understood each other through our short communication, Aki mutters in amazement.

 It's just that if you dive into the dungeon together, you'll somehow understand what the other person wants to say.

 The misunderstanding is serious.

“Rather than that, let's go quickly.”

“Yeah, yeah.”

 The three of us head to the Dungeon Exploration Building together.
