I Was Reincarnated as an Incompetent Villain Prince, and When I Was in the Dark for an Oshi, the Hero Seems to Have Lost His Temper. Apparently, the Hero Is Also a Reincarnated Person~
“I didn’t know it would work this well …….”
I mutter to myself as I walk down the hallway of the school.
The nobles were watching my match against Adele, but their criticism of me had weakened considerably.
On the contrary, they have raised their evaluation of me quite a bit.
There are still many problems to be solved, but I believe that I will no longer be the first to be suspected if something happens in the future.
Thinking about this, I open the classroom door.
As I enter the classroom, my classmates gather around me, but I brushed them off and went to my seat.
“Whew, I’m tired. ……”
I take my seat and lean back in my chair.
I am more tired than usual today, probably because of yesterday’s match with Adele.
I think about this and take a rest with my eyes closed.
Then I felt someone sitting beside me.
“Can I sit next to you?”
A familiar voice pricks my ears.
I open my eyes and turn in the direction of the voice.
There was Celes with a wry smile on her face.
“C-Celes? I don’t mind……”
“The battle yesterday was, even from my point of view, an extraordinary one. I didn’t think you could use advanced magic.”
Celes says this to me as she brings her face close to mine.
Is my face and Celes’s face only a few centimeters apart?
I was so close to her that I couldn’t help but get a little nervous.
And she seemed to know about the technique I used, as if she had been watching the whole confrontation with Adele.
“Hmm I didn’t realize Roland was the Man in the Mask.”
“I guess you knew.”
I replied to Celes in dismay.
“I’ve played against you once, how could I forget?”
“Of course, don’t tell anyone who I am, okay?”
“Yeah, of course.”
Celes says this with a laugh.
While we were chatting like that, Ria and Kureha came rushing in through the classroom door.
“Good morning, Master Roland,…… Huh? Celes san?”
“Good morning, you two.”
With that, Celes stood up and greeted them both.
“Good morning, Celes-san.”
Ria and Kureha say so and sit down near me.
“You seem to be quite popular, Roland.”
Celes says with a smile.
“Haha, that’s a lot of work.”
I laugh at Celes, and as I reply, a teacher walks in.
“Good morning, everyone.”
The teacher greets the students in the classroom
“Before I begin today’s lesson, there is something I would like to share with you all. It seems that a dungeon has recently been discovered near the school.
So I would like to use a few days of class time to try to conquer the dungeon.”
Hearing these words, my classmates begin to get excited.
A dungeon is basically a place where treasures and other items can be obtained.
You can get materials for demons, valuable items, magic items, and so on.
However, there are many dangers because it is also a place where demons live.
“The magic number is higher than average for A class students, so you will probably learn more by actually using magic than by learning it in class. That is why we are going to attack the dungeon.”
After he finished explaining this, the teacher started talking about dungeons.
But I knew about dungeons from the original story, so I listened without thinking anything in particular.
In the original story, this dungeon event is quite important.
(Because the treasure in the dungeon has materials to fight against the demon king.)
The dungeon is where the demons live, but you can get materials, armor, etc. that you wouldn’t normally be able to get.
To fight the Demon King, the materials available in this dungeon are essential.
However, there is a problem with this dungeon.
(This dungeon is quite difficult to conquer in the original story.)
In any case, you have to go deep into the dungeon to find it, so you don’t know which route is the right one.
In addition to that, the demons are strong, and the demons that appear are on a different level from those in ordinary dungeons.
“This concludes my explanation. This dungeon is a candidacy system, so those who will not participate in the attack will study on their own at the school. Leaders, please inform me of your team composition as soon as it is decided.”
As soon as the teacher finished speaking, everyone moved in unison.
“Roland, why don’t you team up with me?”
Celes is the one who calls out to me.
To be honest, having Celes on the team is quite reassuring.
“I don’t mind, but would you be okay with Ria as the leader?”
I suggested.
Celes made a slight gesture as if she was thinking, and then opened her mouth.
“Yeahh, so that’s what you mean. That would be better, indeed.”
Celes, as expected, seemed to understand my intention right away.
If I succeeded in conquering the dungeon this time, it would definitely boost Ria’s reputation.
I thought so and entrusted Ria to be the leader of the dungeon attack.
“Then, the group would be Ria, Kureha, and Celes, including me.”
“With Master Roland, we’ll be safe!”
Kureha is so pleased.
The dungeon attack this time is honestly not going to be a simple task.
However, the presence of Kureha and Celes will make this attack much easier.
With that in mind, I told the teacher who the group and leader would be.
