But as a professor, she had to stay here to protect the students.
Slurp~
Sucking in the saliva that had almost dripped out, Professor Nini quickly looked away from Dark's lunch box.
If she hadn't been keeping her dignity as a professor, she would've certainly jumped on it.
"This is so hard."
……
After arduously enduring it until around one o'clock, seeing that most of the students had finished their lunch, Professor Nini quickly clapped her hands, "Students who want to move freely can come to apply to me. The scope is limited to the first and second floors, but try not to be too far away from me. Also, you have to return here before dark."The students who had been waiting for a long time instantly became excited.
Sara Swati, along with Heidi Euphemia and another girl from Magister House, were the first to come to Professor Nini.
After the three showed their [Magic Energy Compass], they immediately completed the registration process and obtained the permission.
Afterwards, more people came out one after another.
The rest of the students were talking in whispers, mostly guessing about what kind of results these teams could achieve.
"It's time to go."
Dark tapped Dianna who was still indulging in the pile of snacks and started moving to clean up the trash.
Only then did Dianna raise her head. She looked at the unfinished snacks with some regrets, but patted her cheeks to break free from its temptation.
Dark couldn't help letting out a smile. Bagging the trash, he looked up in Professor Nini's direction.
White and Robert just happened to be walking out of the crowd, followed by an expressionless Emma at a distance of two meters behind them.
"Are they forming a team?"
Dark was slightly surprised, but he wasn't overly concerned about it.
From his standpoint, he was a little worried that the three of them would quarrel with each other.
But with the [Dungeon Escaper] equipped, there should be no accident.
……
Dark waited for White's team to complete the registration before walking over with Dianna and Rose.
Professor Nini inadvertently glanced at Dianna's backpack before asking, "Have you guys properly recorded the magic energy with your [Magic Energy Compass]?"
Dark smiled and said, "Of course."
Professor Nini handed over the paperboard, "Register here."
The three successively completed the registration and set off without delay.
……
"Which floor are we going to?" After walking a certain distance, Rose finally asked.
Dark thought for a moment and said, "The first floor is safer, but I want to go to the second floor, what do you guys think?"
Dianna enthusiastically raised her hand. "I have no objection."
"Why do you raise your hand so high if you have no objection?" Rose pulled down her hand before saying, "Then let's go to the second floor. I'll summon my familiar spirit soon, it can help to explore the way."
Dianna: "Then I'll also…"
Rose: "Mhm."
And thus, both of them summoned their familiar spirits.
Dianna's familiar spirit was a panda with a round head and short legs, merely the size of a basketball.
Because it had just been summoned, it hadn't been forced to wear a skirt.
Rose's familiar spirit was a snow-white rabbit.
Without looking carefully, one would feel that it was no different from ordinary pet rabbits.
But in fact, on its forehead, there was a small bump that was covered by its long fur.
→It was a juvenile Unicorn Rabbit(独角兔).
However, for familiar spirits, species and attributes were actually not important. Size, strength and speed were the more important aspects.
After all, familiar spirits weren't aggressive. They were mainly used as letter couriers.
Using them to explore the way like now was also feasible.
But when DemiDevimon looked at the two silly familiar spirits, the corners of its mouth uncontrollably rose.
Whenever it saw other people's familiar spirits, it would feel a surging sense of pride.
Because the food in the lunch box had been emptied, Dark had put it inside his backpack after stacking it up. Therefore, the current DemiDevimon was free and leisurely.
Dark: "DemiDevimon, don't forget your job."
DemiDevimon: Isn't my job being a courier?
Dark lightly glanced at it.
DemiDevimon: Yes, sir! I am a vanguard explorer!
……
As the three familiar spirits went to explore the way, the environment in the passage gradually turned quiet.
Dark stopped making small talks, and Dianna and Rose also became more vigilant.
They hardly encountered any monsters when they went from the first floor to the second floor, but everyone knew that it was because Professor Nini was leading the way.
Now, without Professor Nini who had her own "intimidating halo", the danger of the dungeon would promptly jump by several levels.
Those monsters would no longer be the poor souls who ran away from humans—they would transform into ferocious and threatening beasts at the moment of encounter!
After walking for only less than five minutes, there was a sudden movement from the familiar spirits who were exploring ahead.
Alerted, the three of them looked at one another.
Dark immediately forged ahead, with Gatomon following after him.
Dianna forcibly suppressed her impulse to rush, cautiously moving forward together with Rose.
Just a short moment later, Dark arrived at the scene of the incident.
Thereupon, he couldn't help smiling.
What he saw was a monster that looked like a rabid dog being humiliated by the three familiar spirits...
It was obviously a monster that was known for its ferocity, but it was no match for the three "non-aggressive" familiar spirits.
Rose's Unicorn Rabbit looked meek and docile, yet it was firmly biting on the monster's front leg.
It was unknown how it did it, but Dianna's little panda actually managed to strangle the monster. Its whole body hung around the monster's neck like a pendant, completely restricting it.
A monster with its head and one front leg locked could only attack with its other front leg.
However, DemiDevimon made use of its superiority in the air. Every time it pounced, it would fly away after landing a hit, not the slightest bit reckless. It nearly scratched off the scalp of that monster.
"Is this the level of an ordinary monster on the second floor?"
Dark put the magic card he was holding into his sleeve and took out [Pride I] from his card pouch, doing a Normal Summoning.
As the dark golden ball of light sank between its eyebrows, the look in DemiDevimon's eyes instantly changed.
It suddenly spread out its wings, letting out an angry roar.
Immediately afterwards, a shark head syringe materialized in front of its wings and fiercely shot at the monster.
Puff!
[Demi Dart]'s needle accurately pierced the monster's forehead. Thereafter, the thick and long syringe was quickly filled up with blood.
The monster wailed, losing the strength to struggle.
By the time Dianna and Rose caught up, Dark had already started collecting the monster's drop.
At the moment of death, all the magic energy in its body gathered into one of its canine teeth, emitting a faint white light.
But judging from the fact that DemiDevimon could kill it, this canine tooth wasn't anything valuable.
"What kind of monster is this?" Dianna trotted over and asked.
"It should be a Doomdog (小魔犬)," replied Dark. He was about to stand up when Gatomon, who was next to him, suddenly pulled on his sleeve and pointed at the front.
He reflexively looked up.
At the end of the passage ahead was a forked road.
But at present, there was nothing out of the norm.
However, after concentrating on it, he could faintly hear some sounds.
"A horde of monsters are approaching!"
Dianna's voice suddenly rang behind him. There was a hint of panic mixed in her voice, but more of it was excitement.
