It has been a week since that incident where someone burnt Ms. Yuzuki's face and the leader of a guild came here. Since then, there's nothing eventful happening.
I went to school normally. Training after school was over every day. And there's really nothing important happened.
The boy who got suspended is now has returned to school again. Other students seem to be avoiding him but he's fine with it. He's trying to atone for his mistake.
I heard that he wanted to be a Hero. Just like most students here. So some people in my class said that he became even more serious in his study and during break, they could see him practicing fire magic in a safe area while being watched by a teacher who also learned fire magic but couldn't even attend the Hero Academy to be a Hero.
He's trying hard. Because of that one mistake in the past, he became different than other immature students here. He's more serious and more dedicated to his goal. That's good.
Though if he's someone who wants to have a free day once in a while instead of training every day to relax, then I think we could be friends. But he's too serious in his training so I never bother him. I guess he will be alone until graduation.
Then there's also something different with Ms. Yuzuki. Although she's never in charge of teaching my class, I met her more often in the nurse's office now. Because of that, Halberd doesn't like it. He couldn't drink his beer hidden in the fridge in the secret compartment under the floor easily anymore.
She came to the nurse's office mainly to have me heal her face. There's no more pain, but her scar was still there. So she's willing to be my guinea pig for my healing magic practice.
She couldn't get a healer to heal her face. She said that finding one and asking for their service is too difficult and too expensive. So she relied on me to heal her face.
After four days of me using healing magic on her face, her face is now clean again without any scars. And it's just me using basic healing magic without altering the magic circle. If I alter the magic circle, I could get it done faster.
Though because of that, I think she has become even closer to me and Halberd since we hung out in the nurse's office too often. She would complain about her job and the students. Then Halberd complained about how crazy it is with so many newly awakened students accidentally cause other students to be injured. Then I tried to escape as the two adults complained about their job. But I failed.
Instead, they hammered all those complaints to me as if they're all my faults. They just can't talk about it with other students. But because I'm way too different than other students, they feel relaxed to complain to me.
So I decided to go to the nurse's office less often. It's annoying to go there only to hear them complaining about the students. Because I'm also a student. Even though I know that they're not talking about me, it's kind of annoying for them to do that.
Another change in the past week is that Bob actually destroyed several small illegal organizations near the school. That's great. Now Reina can go to school without having to worry about them.
The Hero from the guild that tried to recruit me still came here to school once in a while. Though he doesn't seem to be thinking of interacting with me at all. I guess the Guild Leader told him to be careful around me.
What else happened this last week? I guess nothing important. I'm still alone in class while talking with my classmates once in a while. Mostly about the latest anime episode or games I'm playing with the otaku group.
The biggest change would be the physiques of the newly awakened superhumans. Everyone who has awakened now look better than before.
Those who were fat somehow became slimmer. Those who were thin gained some weight and look healthier. Those who are short become taller. And those who are already tall become even taller.
Even I who was already 180 cm tall became 185 cm tall in just one week. As for my body though, it's no different than before. Because I have always been taking care of my body even before I awakened.
Those who have their body changed are mostly warriors. Just because they became a warrior, they look better now. Their bodies are altered because of their class. So that they can adapt with their new strength.
As for those who awakened as a magician, their changes are not as big as the warriors. Well, their skin becomes smoother and prettier than before. I guess that's kind of a big change.
Now I look like I could pass as a member of a Korean boy band just by my look. Though I could do that even before I was awakened.
Right now, I have the confidence that if there's a magazine with the top hundred most handsome high school student, I will be there. But even before, I already have the confidence to have my name listed in the top fifty million most handsome men in the world. My name would be listed rather high. But that's when I read the list upside down.
These are normal changes that happen to people's physiques after they awakened as superhumans. And this is also why even those who have no interest in becoming Heroes would want to be superhumans. It's also why most celebrities are superhumans. Because of their looks after they awakened their class.
…Or is it that most superhumans became celebrities? I don't know.
With magic and also the help of the strength coming from being a warrior, most actors and actresses do their own stunt in movies. Which actually makes the movies here more interesting than the movies in my past life. Though the movies in my past life were interesting as well.
After school with nothing happened, I go to the slum for training as well while chatting with Bob just like usual.
"How's the training going?" Bob asked.
"I still haven't found a way to permanently change the magic circle in my head after saying the magic word. Other than that, I don't know," I said.
"Of course you don't know. If you say that it's all going fine, I would hit you with magic. You can train as much as you want and you can even increase your level that way. But you can only see the change in a real battle," Bob said.
It's weird. Why is he talking like that? He usually doesn't even bother asking me how the training is going. Something must have happened. So I stopped drawing magic circle and ask him about it.
"Bob, what happened? There must be something that you want to tell me," I asked.
"As expected, you are sharp. Come with me," Bob said.
I then followed him out of the building. We walked for a while until we reach another building quite far from where I trained.
The slum is huge with a lot of abandoned buildings. And this building could be said to be the furthest one building after entering from the entrance.
Bob brought me into the building and to the second floor. In the second floor of said building, I finally realized what he meant by telling me all that stuffs.
In there, there's a portal. That's called a Gate. A portal that will lead you into a dungeon. A place where you can fight monsters.
"You want me to enter a dungeon?" I asked.
"Yes. This Gate suddenly appeared three days ago. Some of us have explored it and even to the Dungeon Boss area. But I told them all to not clear it so you can come here and test your strength. How about it? Do you want to enter?"
"Obviously! Though I still don't have a weapon," I said.
The most important thing as a warrior, I still don't have it. I'm a high school student who doesn't work part-time job. My source of money is only from my allowance. So I can't buy weapons.
Even if I have to buy it, it won't be expensive. Because my main weapons are knives. I just haven't found the right one for me to use.
The knives I use are not some kind of military knives. It's more like kitchen knives. With thin and sharp blade. I use that kind of knives in my past life as my main weapons.
Of course I used other weapons as well including guns. But knives are what suited my hands most.
"Then you can pick any weapon from the rack over there. Since you just trained, take a fifteen minutes break before we go in," Bob said.
"What? You're going to enter with me?" I asked.
"No matter how many times you surprised me, it's impossible for me to let you enter a Dungeon on your own. You're a superhuman only for a week. I'm coming with you like it or not. Though it will just be the two of us."
That's actually great. No matter how good I am in fighting, this is a first time I enter a Dungeon and also the first time I will fight monsters. So having a level 7 magician as my guide and instructor in a Dungeon is the best thing any newly-awakened superhuman could have.
I take a look at the weapons in the rack and instantly grabbed two knives. Their shape and length are different from what I used to have in my past life. But this should be better than other weapons in the rack since I'm more familiar to them than to other weapons.
Today, I will clear a Dungeon for the first time. I'm so excited that I can finally test my real strength in a real situation. I wonder how strong I am compared to other level 1 warriors or magicians.
