An Incompetent Explorer Who Failed to Make His High School Debut but Mastered Being a Human Being Chapter 24

Episode 024: The Beginning of a Misunderstanding (Third Party Perspective)

 In a room in Shinomiya Academy.

 Tokine Hojou, the student council president, sits down on a high-class leather chair, puts her elbows on her desk and holds her face between her hands. Two sofas are placed facing each other in front of her desk to accomodate guests, and a glass table is placed in the center.

 On top of that, there were four steaming cups of tea, and four men and women were sitting on the sofas.

“Saotome-kun, what are your thoughts on the fight?”

“Ah, he's a monster? S-rank … No, it might be more if you're careless.”

 Shinji Saotome, who sits in the back of the sofa on the right, answered the question of Tokine. He is the chairman of the dungeon diving department who had a mock battle with Fuhito at the welcome party yesterday. He had an astonished face.

“I'm still one of the top dungeon explorers in this high school. This is a fact that is not conceited.”

“Is that so.”

 In addition to the rank system, explorers are provided with a ranking that quantifies how much the explorers are contributing to the country and the world through a system called contribution ranking system.

 Contribution rankings can basically be earned by defeating monsters, but in addition to that, they can be increased by discovering undiscovered items or providing rare items to the Union.

 The contribution ranking was also applied to students, and Shinji was a high ranker who was in the top ten in Shinomiya Academy.

“Sure, I didn't use my skills, and at first I was messing around. Fuhito was dodging, and he absorbed my fighting style and breathing and imitated it exactly as I did it. You can't do such a thing overnight. So, from the middle, I also became stubborn and sped up, but I couldn't even touch him at all, right?”

“That's an amazing story. I was seeing it at the time, but I couldn't believe it. My core got a little hot … huh … huh …”

 Sitting in front of Shinji is the disciplinary chairman Ikusaba Tsubaki. Tsubaki who was remembering yesterday's battle with Fuhito, has an ecstatic expression on her face, and rubs her inner thighs bashfully. If there were an innocent boy, they would be inadvertently leaning forwards.

“This battle maniac …”

 Shinji raised his face and spat out a sigh. Shinji knows the true nature of Tsubaki, so even if he sees it, he will not be lustful. Rather, he was amazed and repulsed.

“Because, did you see the club that Fuhito used? It broke nicely when it hit Shinji, but that's not what was amazing. The handle of the club was shattered into pieces, a club made of a material that can withstand the power of an explorer. Can you see this without getting excited!?”

 It seems that Tsubaki is excited and won't cool down. Her appearance was that of flushed cheeks and admiring eyes, as if she said that her savior had appeared.

“Oh, I'm definitely grateful that he wasn't bare-handed. If he was bare-handed, my head would probably have been blown away.”

“Is it that much!?”

 Tokine was amazed when Shinji's face turned blue and his shoulders shook, probably remembering that time.

 She didn't think it was that much.

“Oh, no doubt about it? To be honest, I'm surprised I'm still alive.”

 Shinji murmured in self-deprecation.

 It was written on his face that he didn't want to have a match with him again.

“Besides that, did you hear what he said when the match was over?”

“No, what on earth did he say?”

 Tokine asked Shinji, who speaks in succession, with slightly awkward words.

“'Thank you for your help.' I thought I was being ridiculed at first, but his eyes were so serious that I couldn't say anything. He seriously thinks I was going easy on him.”

“That is … how should I say it …”

“That's why I said that guy is a monster.”

 Hearing Shinji's reply, they made frightened expressions. Shinji saw their expressions, and repeated what he initially said.

“Chairman, do you want him to be in the Student Council?”

 A beautiful young man with glasses sitting next to Shinji, Nishiwaki Suou.

 He asks Tokine.

“Yeah. If his power goes public, a battle will start. I want to secure him in my faction before that happens.”

“Well, if he's such a talent, I'd like to bring him in to the Student Council.”

 Agreeing with Tokine's opinion, was a small, suspicious-looking girl, the Student Council Secretary, Kanzaki Anzu.

“That's right, but I don't think he's interested in the Student Council. I wish I could show him the benefits of joining the Student Council …”

“Why is he in this school in the first place?”

 Hmm, making worried sounds with her arms crossed. The abundant motherhood bulges due to her crossed arms. If there was an unrelated person who likes big breasts, they would be fascinated.

 Suou asked when he heard the worried sounds.

“It seems that he was very fat and looked copmletely different from what he is now, but when he was in the third year of Junior High school, he decied to go on a diet and succeeded in renewing his appearance, hairstyle, and clothes. I think he was trying to make a High School debut as a new self at this school where there were no local classmates.”

“Is it a High school debut? I see. Surprisingly simple, isn't he?”

 Tokine looked up when he answered with that information, and Shinji smiled with confidence.

“Eh!? Is that so?”

 Tokine, who couldn't come up with anything, couldn't believe Shinji who said it as if it were natural.

“That's right. If you say that he'll be popular if he joins the Student Council, you'll get him in one try. He wants to break away from his unpopular self and enjoy his youth.”

“I see, that's right. You mean that Satou is also a boy. I understand. Let's put Saotome's words into practice.”

Perhaps suddenly recalling something from Shinji's words, speaking with a slightly distant look in her eyes, Tokine nodded in satisfaction.

However, having already failed his High school debut, they do not know that the act is counterproductive to the Fuhito who doesn't want to have his explorer's aptitude investigated.

Meanwhile, at that time, in a certain dungeon, a disaster became conscious.

“Guooooooooon!!”

 Its existence, trapped in a closed place that is pitch black, unable to move, and painful, gives off an angry roar. The next moment, the darkness cracks and light shines into the space.

 The warm light was terribly pleasing to its existence. In order to seek more light, the calamity smashed the darkness into pieces.

 Beyond its opened field of view was a world of exactly the same bricks.

 The calamity was in the form of a black beast.
