(In the infirmary. Alex's POV)
I woke up and my vision was a little blurry, my head was throbbing and I felt weak all over "Where the hell am I?" I said as I tried to make out where I was.
"Hey, don't stress, you're in the infirmary" a girl who was sitting next to my bed said.

Now I understood why my head was throbbing, I had just been in a fight with a very strong creature. 'Wait a minute aren't Liam and I suppose to be in the dungeon raid?, what happened?, where's Liam?' so many questions filled my mind increasing the pain I felt in my head.
"What the hell happened" Liam's voice brought me back to reality as I saw he was laying in bed next to mine. "Are you guys feeling alright?" the girl sitting between us said "Who are you suppose to be?" Liam asked and I wondered the same thing as I tried to recall where I had seen her before
"You're the girl who was been attacked by the Vodygar aren't you?" I said as I remembered "Oh right" Liam said
"What happened?" I asked "The dungeon raid was cancelled, turns out it was actually a D rank dungeon and not E rank" She answered "So the academy sent us into a D rank dungeon to become beast feed" Liam said laying on the bed
"Yeah basically" I said replying him. "You were covered in bruises when we came to help you, how come you are not in bruises now" I asked "I'm a level 3 healer" she answered simply. "Oh, so that's why" Liam said
Then the nurse came into the infirmary "You can wait outside now" the nurse said to Jenna so she walked out of the infirmary room
"Let's get you guys healed" the nurse said.
Then she walked to the others who were in the infirmary and healed them one after the other. She then came to where I was laying and put her hand on my arm, after a minute I felt a tingling sensation all over my body and my wounds started to close, my head stopped hurting and my body stopped aching.

My HP was completely regained and I felt better 'She has got to be a really high level for her to heal us completely and also, this fast' I thought to myself.
'Apraisal'
She then walked over to Liam and did the same "You all have to wait for a while, you can leave after five minutes" She said and then left.
Liam and I waited for exactly five minutes and then we came out of the infirmary.
"Hey, you guys are out already," Jenna said as we came out of the infirmary, her eyes filled with concern.
"Yeah, thanks for asking" Liam replied, giving her a grateful smile.
We stood there awkwardly for a moment, none of us really sure what to say next. It was Liam who broke the silence. "So, what happens now? Are we in trouble for not completing the raid?"
"I don't think so," Jenna said, shaking her head. "The academy knows it was their mistake. They'll probably reschedule the raid or something."
"That's a relief," I said, letting out a sigh. "I wasn't looking forward to doing that again anytime soon."
Jenna chuckled. "I can imagine. It was pretty intense from what I heard."
"Yeah, you could say that," Liam said, smirking a little. "So, uh, do you want to hang out with us sometime? Maybe grab something to eat or train together?"
I was surprised by Liam's suggestion but found myself nodding in agreement. "Yeah, that sounds like a good idea." I said "Sure, I'd like that." Jenna answered and smiled, looking pleased.
"Great," Liam said "How about tomorrow evening? We can meet at the cafeteria?"
"Sounds perfect," I said, feeling a newfound sense of friendship with Jenna and Liam. "It's a date then."
Jenna and Liam laughed at my choice of words, and I couldn't help but join in. Despite the chaotic start, it seemed like everything was finally falling into place. And I had a feeling that everything was going to turn out just fine.

After parting ways with Jenna, Liam and I walked back to our dorm. We opened the door to see Ethan sitting on the bed with a worried expression. Then he turned to see look at us the moment we walked in "Thank goodness you guys okay" he said with a look of relief.
"What happened?" he asked, we then explained everything that has happened to him including about Jenna and how we fought against the Vodygar.
After a long chat we then went to sleep.

(6:00am in the academy hall)
"Good day students" the vice commander and head of the military academy said to the us students who were gathered in the hall
"I would like to address the recent dungeon raid conducted by our academy's students. Unfortunately, the mission did not proceed as anticipated due to the unexpected presence of a higher-level beast within the dungeon. This creature proved to be too formidable for our current freshmen student level to handle effectively.
In light of this, we have made the decision to reschedule the dungeon raid to ensure that our students are better prepared and equipped to face such challenges. The new date for the raid will be within the next two weeks, allowing us time to prepare a new dungeon for the next raid.
I understand the concern and disappointment this may cause among the students who participated and were attacked. Rest assured, those students will be compensated accordingly for their efforts and any injuries sustained during the raid.
The safety and well-being of every one of you remain our top priority. We will take this opportunity to learn from this experience and strengthen our training programs to better prepare you students for future missions. Thank you for your understanding, You're all dismissed. " He said that everyone one then left the hall to go to their respective classes.
And I went to the Weaponry class as usual.
