Death March kara Hajimaru Isekai Kyusoukyoku

18-34. Boy in the Labyrinth City (8)

"We are starting the newcomer class!"

The instructor shouts to the many new explorers gathered around him.

There are more than 100 boys and girls in the square.

"First of all, about essential belongings! Do you know anything ?!"

When the instructor asks, shouts of "Weapons!", "Smoke balls!", "Flash balls!", "Knives for dismantling!" could be heard.

Smoke ball and flash ball … By the way, my sister told me to get it before other equipment.

I completely forgot.

It seems that once I came to the labyrinth city I was a little overwhelmed.

"Well, that's important, but there's something more important!"

The instructor gestured us to quiet down and waited for the explorers' voices to subside before continuing.

"It's water! Be sure to bring a water bottle! There are places in the labyrinth where you can get water, so keep a map of where you're going to explore in advance. People can live without eating,, but you'll die without water! "

In response to the instructor's voice, people around me protested, "I will die without eating!"

It is natural for people from a mountain villages to die of starvation in poor harvest years.

"There is bad and there is worse, it's a matter of degree. You can move for four or five days without eating, but you can't move that much without water."

After saying that, the instructor told us the types of water bottles and precautions.

"Be sure to wash the water bottle when you return from exploration! A filthy water bottle is a source of illness! Don't think you can get over ambitious and only focus on fighting monsters!"

It's the cautionary warning that my sister told me.

It's been said for long time use to keep it as clean as possible.

"It seems that some advanced explorers have magical tools that boil water when magical power is applied."

The acquaintance Zaki, who was sitting nearby, tells me in a whisper.

Water is rather heavy, so I think such a convenient tool was made.

"Next be sure to bring a torch or lantern!"

"Well, it would be bright if there is a sign monument."

Immediately, a newcomer who had been to the labyrinth complained.

"You think there will always be a sign monument! And even in the place where there is a sign monument, there are always shadows that the light does not reach. There are also monsters that attack from the shadows like a shadow demon. The shadow is always safe to illuminate. Don't spare effort! That's the dividing line between those who return alive and those who don't! "

While listening to the instructor, I remember the first time I went to the labyrinth.

Certainly, there was a lot of shadows. There were quite a few places whether crevices in the walls, shadows of pillars, and rubble was piled up.

If there was a monster lurking there, I'm sure someone would have been injured by a surprise attack.

"If you handle the lantern roughly, it will break, so use the torch while newcomers. The torch can be a weapon and can also restrain slime!"

"Well, slime is a small fish!"

"Have you ever fought slime?"

The explorer who complained to the instructor's words shook his head.

"The slime in the labyrinth is different from the harmless slime in the city's waterways and garbage disposal sites. It's a difficult task to defeat with a weapon, and it's unexpectedly agile and secretes acid when striking to the body. You should also be weary of poisoning. "

I understand. Even in the village, I was told to be careful when walking in the mountains.

I hate leeches, but I hate slime even more. The story of a new hunter who entered the mountain alone and was eaten by slime was a classic cautionary tell for children before climbing the mountain.

"Even if you get tired, don't sit directly on the floor of the labyrinth. In some places, monsters like tube-worms will come out from between the cobblestones and suck blood. Peel it off. If you leave it as it is, it will eat through the meat and sneak into your body. "

Wow, I can just imagined it.

The labyrinth seems to be a more dangerous place than I expected.

"If you can afford it, wrap something around your hips to protect them. Some guys wrap around your hips, so if you feel something is wrong with your hips, stand up immediately."

The instructor laughs when he says so.

The instructor says it's best to use rocks and luggage as chairs for the time being.

After that, the stories of the instructor continues.

Everything was good, and I felt amazed by how lucky I was in my first exploration.

Just as recommended by Mr. Luram and few others, this newcomer training is indispensable.

It's still going on for a few days, but I think the first day alone is worthwhile.

--Brother, knowledge is power.

That's exactly what my sister said.

Once know what you know, your attitude in entering the labyrinth will be completely different.

According to the instructor, this newcomer training was started by Sir Pendragon six or seven years ago, and the mortality rate of newcomers has dropped visibly since the training became widespread. It seems that more than ten times as many people were dead in the past.

◇

"I'm going to take a lunch break! Meals are free, but only once for each person! Remember, the guys who line up in line many times and try to eat for others will be beaten up!"

When the instructor said so, the explorers rushed to one side.

Zaki and Neze, a human who we just got acquainted, also start running. Daegu, a large dog man, moves quietly and quietly, but his stride is wide, so he would not be late as well.

"Let's go, Sharon"

I was hailed by the quiet Lhasa.

Suddenly, I noticed that the child sitting next to me wasn't moving and looked back.

"Laxis, let's go too"

"I'll go later. I'm not good at crowds."

"It's okay because we're together."

I take Laxis's hand and follow Lhasa and his friends.

I just got to know this kid, but I can't leave him alone in the atmosphere of my little sister.

As the word says, Laxis is not good at crowds, and every time he was about to collide with someone, he got very frightened and clung to my arm. It doesn't seem like I'm okay either, and I feel like I'm in a hurry to notice that I'm bumped too much.

"Yes, the next person"

Oops, it's our turn.

A long black-haired sister pours soup into a bowl.

She is an older sister who is always taken care of by cooking. I thanked the sister and received the bowl.

The menu includes a lot of white soup and a big bread.

The big bread looks like freshly baked and has a nice aroma of wheat.

We go back to our standing place and eat with everyone.

Laxis seemed to be hungry too, so as soon as he sat down, he started eating soup.

"It's delicious. It's definitely better than a bad dining room."

It seems to agree with his mouth, and there is a smile on Laxis's face.

"That's right. Unlike soup kitchens, the lunch for newcomers uses real recipes made by the 'miracle cook'."

A boy dressed like an aristocrat sitting nearby says with a glad expression.

Somehow, it looks like the chubby knight Luram. Maybe his younger brother.

"Hmm, that's right."

I bring the soup to my mouth with a spoon while showing a suitable acknowledging expression.

--delicious.

Unlike the light and unsatisfactory cooked rice, it is very delicious.

"Rumor has it that some people are in trouble, because they get into the class for this lunch."

It's totally sad, says the aristocratic boy.

"Bo-chan, if you don't eat early, it will get cold."

"Oops, that's right."

The aristocratic boy advised by a naive boy returns to a meal in a hurry.

"Huh, it was delicious. If you get used to it, the supper fee will increase steadily."

Zaki says with satisfaction while returning the empty vessel to his luggage.

Since lunch is served during the class, I only need to spend for dinner, but I still can't work during the class, so my money is steadily decreasing. It seems better to save for a while.

"But lectures are important"

"Yeah, sure are"

"I know that there were many signs before I was attacked by a thief, now that I've taken a lecture."

Recalling before and after being attacked by a thief, I agrees with Zaki's words.

"Huh? Have you been attacked by a thief?"

"Yeah, its good that you survived."

"Wow, amazing"

Neze and Lachesis gave a surprised voice, and Daegu was impressed with the laid-back tone.

"I got help"

"I was about to die."

Tell the Nezes about the help of Geritz-sama.

"Oh! Were you the ones who was helped by our brother!"

The aristocratic boy interrupted the story.

"I'm Luram's younger brother, Rogym. This is my servant's Sag. Despite his look, he can imitate Take Point, and can use life magic!"

"Bo-chan,'despite his look' past was unnecessary."

As expected, he is Luram's younger brother, and is his servant is a spell-caster? It seems so.

"It's amazing. It's the second person to meet who is a spell-caster."

The only spell user to come to my village is Mr. Thalberg.

No one in the village can use magic. Even the pharmacist Baba couldn't use magic.

"Gather! Let's start the afternoon lecture!"

I wanted to have Sag show me magic, but it seems that the next lecture will start.

I'm full and sleepy, but I have to do my best to take a lecture.

◇

The newcomer training on the second day is a practical training using a wooden sword and a wooden spear.

I do preparatory exercises and warm my body.

"Ra-radio calisthenics? This world has a strange scale of the original world."

Laxis was saying something in a whisper.

I couldn't hear it well because the people around me were noisy.

"Okay, first of all, do a swing! The instructor will correct it, so swing seriously!"

Yesterday's instructor shouts.

A person wearing the same sash as the instructor is slowly walking between us doing our best.

There are other people who are instructors.

"You over extending, so I tell you . You to squeeze hard at the moment you hit the opponent, so I advise."

"Oh! Let's try it!"

The one who is instructing Neze is a beautiful woman with blonde hair tied on the left and right sides of her head.

She has a strange way of speaking.

"You should observe without looking away, so Tria points out to you."

When I was looking at Neze, I was warned by hitting my head from the side.

"Excuse me-same face?"

It was the older sister who had the same face as the instructor who instructed Neze.

"My god, Student. Tria and Yuit are sisters, so I tell."

Instructor Tria then moves on to teach how to use a dagger.

I thought they were twins, but there were many other older sisters with the same face. How many sisters are you?

It was only during the first swing that I was thinking about such an extra thing, and soon I couldn't afford it.

After practicing swings and simple patterns, it's a one-on-one mock combat.

If I lose, the rule is to replace the next one, and I lost to the aristocratic child, Rogym, after passing three people. He seems to have been educated as a warrior from an early age. He was ordered to be replaced after he had defeated ten people, and was praised by the instructor.

"Student Zaki, you are weak and not suitable for explorers."

Zaki, who was pointed out by the instructor, looked like the end of the world, but the instructor continued to say, "You should eat a lot and train more, and you can improve the situation." He was rejuvenated by hearing this.

I also tried my best not to lose, and I was able to accumulate winning stars without losing other than Rojim.

"Student Laxis, I'm not impressed with losing on purpose, so I tell."

"It's not on purpose"

Lachesis was defeated in all matches.

He missed with the sword, and couldn't avoid it even though the timing was right, as well as the sense of distance was strange.

After losing, he managed to mutter "Meane" in a whisper. Is it a word that expresses regret?

◇

"Bruises and muscle aches hurt all over my body"

"Let's go eat rice"

"Tomorrow is training for group battles, so today let's eat something that is strong!"

Heading to the stall square with the members who were in the group battle together.

"That? Isn't that Gon?"

I found Gons sitting in front of the guild.

The large Gon, the gruesome Keros, and the fashionable girl Sina are full of small scratches, and blood is bleeding from the cloth wrapped around Gon's arm. After all, the labyrinth is a place to stay alert.

"Gon, you're injured. Are you okay?"

When I called out, Gon raised his face with a moody face.

"shut up"

"Keros and Sina also look sick--"

"It's not a big deal"

The moment Keros said so, Sina glared at Keros.

"Terrible! Keros says it's not a big deal that she died!"

Sina grabbed Keros's chest and started crying.

It seems that a child from the same village as Sina who joined their party was killed by a monster.

"I can't help it!"

Keros shouts to China.

"That's the labyrinth! That's what being an explorer is!"

The screaming Keros' eyes are bloody and scary.

"Quiet, shut up"

Keros hit by Gon is silent.

Gon pulled Sina's hand to stand up and called out to Keros, "I'm going," and took him.

We went to the food stall square as planned, but the reality of the labyrinth was struck by the Gons, who were in the same situation as ourselves, and we had a heavy meal.

I've done bad things to those who don't know about Gon.

◆◆◆ In a certain village ◆◆◆

"What is your purpose?"

"My purpose is-you, Reina-san"

Akindo says that his purpose is me.

"Akindo-san is a lolicon?"

"Not really"

Akindo shakes his head seriously and disgustingly.

"The purpose is to watch whether Reina and the reincarnated people are living their lives in good health."

"Monitoring?"

"No. I just watch out for demons, powerful people, and demon king worshipers so that they are not targeted."

I tried to say something provocative, but Akindo doesn't seem to get angry.

Is it like free security?

Well, Akindo is many times better than the other three mentioned by Akindo.

"Although the story changes, does Akindo go to the labyrinth city?"

"Yes, I met Sharon the other day."

"Really? Tell me! How was it? Did he had a stomachache? Did he get injured? Did he feel anxious away from me? Did he eat properly? Did he get a bed?"

"Please calm down, Reina-san. I will answer in order."

Mr. Akindo told me about his brother's recent situation.

I was a little relieved to hear that I was already with people who seemed to be party members… I didn't mind hearing that there was girl Bad bug.

"Hey, Mr. Akindo. Do you have blue or red candy?"
