MEMORIZE

The morning has dawned. It was finally the day to embark on a new expedition. The remains to be excavated this time are the Cave of Scream. As it took at least three weeks to explore, it was necessary to prepare the caravan firmly. As I walked out of the inn's door, the cool breeze and the clear air welcomed me. I closed my eyes for a moment, and drank the fresh air full. I felt refreshed all over.

"Wow, the weather is really nice. It's a perfect day for a trip."

As she turned around, she saw Hayeon pushing out the door, smoothing her hair. She had a small backpack on her shoulder. It was an exploration suitcase, but it was a new purchase. They were high-quality backpacks as long as they had time, and I bought a total of four and left them to wizards and priests. (Neighborhood families didn't give them backpacks because they could get caught in combat.)

Looking at her with a refreshing smile, I also responded with a soft smile.

"In a way, wouldn't this be like a trip. There are many scenic spots in Hall Plain."

"Ho-ho. I don't want to travel in danger of my life."

There was a beautiful colored necklace hanging from her neck. The other day, it was apparent that it was a necklace of glory from the ruins' lab. I wondered what kind of magic he used to memoize, but he kept his mouth shut when he saw the group coming out one after another.

The children also came down tightly armed with weapons obtained from the lab. In particular, Ahn Hyun and Lee Yu-jung were showing a very different side of them when they first came to Mul. At that time, it was a chick that was embarrassing to call a user, but now it felt like a beginner user was naked. Of course, it would seem like a mere sight, but I was proud to think that they were the children I raised.

"Oh, it's so nice to wear these gloves. The window looks like sorghum."

He expressed his satisfaction by swinging a spear, which he usually held a little heavy. Glove of Reduction. It doesn't increase your actual strength, but it certainly wasn't a very useful equipment. Beyond Anhyeon, who had a happy face, turned the window around, I slowly looked at the other party.

Soon after, Vivien, Shin Sang-yong, and Ko Yeon-joo came down from the stage and arranged the group. Ko Yeon-joo roughly closed the inn door and stood in the middle of the group, and I, who was at the forefront, moved toward the north gate.

On the way, I could see some crowds of users. At this time of year, users in Mule would have obvious abilities. Or you have a very low annual leave. They were all looking at us with envious eyes, probably having a hard time making ends meet day by day. I was also envious of users who wore good equipment and went on expeditions early in the morning, so it was not that I couldn't sympathize with them.

As such, we left the North Gate with the salutes of the guards, and at the same time, the atmosphere of the party changed rapidly. The tumultuous atmosphere quickly became quiet, and the excited children hardened their faces and were wary of the surroundings. It was because I knew my temperament in the city that I could not tolerate even a little mischief as long as I was in action. The educational effects in the meantime were coming out. In particular, I felt even more pleased when I tilted my head with a face that I was pretty good at the changed atmosphere of the performance.

There are currently eight members in our party. Of course, it wasn't a perfect configuration (except for the user's capabilities), and there were classes that were lacking. Still, compared to the "Dungeon of Vivienne," an ancient alchemist, it was quite accurate.

As such, it was necessary to refine the individual positions of users to some extent. Once I was in the lead, I played the role of coordinating the whole thing with the tanker. Ahn Hyun decided to take on the support battle at the same time as the sub-tanker who helped me. Ansol stood in the middle of the group, and Vivienne, Hayeon and Shin Sang-yong formed a triangular formation surrounding her. At first glance, the center may be weak, but the weakness has been offset by keeping high performance as a keeper.

One peculiarity was that the oil well asked for free at the same time as the tail. In the past, I would have flatly refused to talk nonsense, but I accepted it with my permission on condition that I would run free.

So we reached the plains where we went to the Ancient Alchemist Vivien's Dungeon and the Institute of Ruins. I turned east without delay and led the party.

The children were all obeying my orders, but their eyes were filled with indisputable confidence. Excitement to explore after a long time, good equipment, better performance than before, and other users' eyes. All of these factors were causing the children to be more motivated than usual.

However, I intended to dispel their motivation at once. It is good to ride this momentum, but I thought it would be better to raise awareness than that. The children have become incomparably stronger than the same-year users, but they are still only youngsters in terms of the whole hallplane. And looking at the behavior of the children I've seen so far, it seemed highly likely that these confidence would turn into pride and even arrogance. And it was more effective to create a situation and make myself aware than to rattle.

The party rarely talked except for what was needed. Having maintained a certain march speed for a while, I looked back after some time. Muell was barely seen. Before I knew it, the sun was rising little by little, and it seemed like noon was approaching. We decided to spread the map for a while, measure the current location, and turn slightly.

Despite his stride, there were no monsters or vagabonds in sight. The vagabonds, though, were unexpected that the monster had never attacked them. As we continued the march with a slight change in direction, we could see that the faces of the children who had expressed extreme vigilance in the beginning were gradually loosened. I made fun of my steps more quickly because I thought it was time to implement my plans.

Before long, I began to see a mountain that I had aimed for in front of my party. I stopped walking for a while and opened my mouth looking at the group.

"From now on, we are going to cross the mountain in front of us."

"Huh? Is there a need to cross the mountain? You said it would take 10 days to get there, but as far as I know, even if you use the direct route, the road will eventually be the same. You don't have to lose strength climbing the mountain."

Certainly, the words of the high performer were valid. What she meant was that she needed to take a long march for the next 10 days and control her physical strength. But because I was after something, I was able to give a good answer.

"Just in case, I did a quick inspection of the other ruins except the Cave of Scream. Originally, we were going to go by direct route, but I don't think it'd be a bad idea to pass by once on the way. Of course, you can't explore everywhere, but it's better than never. Although the road is a little twisted, I will make sure that the expected arrival date does not change. However, I hope you'll follow suit as I'm planning to speed up the march."

"Ha. So you've been looking into all the other ruins except the Cave of Scream?”

"Yes, we only selected the remains in the same direction and examined them. We needed to prepare for one case in a million."

I answered humbly and turned away immediately. Ko Yeon-joo had a strange facial expression as if she didn't understand a little, but now the captain of the caravan was me. And if she didn't find "The Cave of Scream" in the first place, she was the one who picked up the countermeasures, and she said it was an extension of it, so she had nothing to say.

I felt a little sorry for Hayeon, Shin Sang-yong and Vivien, but this was a necessary process. The Cave of Scream was one of the practicing processes that ended in Mule. Now you don't see many users, and you're probably thinking that it's somewhat doable as it's a small town.

However, it is 180 degrees different from the current situation just by entering ordinary cities or large cities. Users who can be seen even if they take a step away and vagabonds who can be caught off guard. And much higher dungeon difficulty and powerful monsters. In order to survive in such a gap, he needed to realize his current position.

So, the way I chose to do it was march. It was intended to kill the children's spirits with the march most fundamentally required of the user in the hallplane.

Before we knew it, we had the first mountain in front of us. You probably didn't know from a distance, but when you saw the huge mountain range in front of you, you could tell that it was different from the first time. Before I went into the mountains, I chewed on my words and asked them to do so.

"From now on, I'm going to cross the mountain in front of me. The mountain has not yet been named, but records show that it forms a huge mountain range across a total of three mountains. It may be hard to climb the mountain, but I won't increase the estimated time of arrival. Everyone, please keep your pace and be on the alert while maintaining that speed. Because mountains have a lot of monsters.”

I heard someone swallowing their saliva. After laughing at the cute sound, I sent Anhyeon to the rear with Yoo-jung. It was sent in case wizards or priests were knocked down. Ahn Hyun still followed my order with a confident face. It seemed to me to recall the hard work in The Dark Forest.

But at that time, it was a forced move that was strictly tailored to the children. I was going to show you how other ordinary users usually explore.

"Then I'll be on my way."

At my words, the party nodded once and I strode straight into the mountain.

"Gasp, gasp."

"Gasp, gasp."

The first children to climb the mountain with great energy began to breathe less than an hour later. Among them, Ahn Sol was the first user to complain of lack of stamina. As a priest, and as he lacked physical strength, he was the first to reveal his weakness. But I never slowed down.

The rest of the party, except for the children, were following with their teeth clenched. It was ridiculous when wizard users said that Ahn Hyun and Lee Yu-jung were having a hard time. However, Ahn Sol started to sag little by little, and Ahn Hyun and Lee Yoo-jung were coming up from behind as they dragged Ahn Sol. That's how much of a physical burden will be on them.

I felt the gaze of wanting a little rest in the back, but I kept climbing the mountain without hesitation. Seeing me jumping over high ground without hesitation, everyone in my party must have felt a sense of death. And as soon as I messed up even a little bit, I immediately pointed out the user.

Every time I did that, I could see the anxious faces of the children. But I completely ignored their wishes. Instead, he appeared to reprimand them with a bit of harsh language.

"Wake up, don't sag and stay in shape. It's not a battle, it's just a march. What if we can't catch up?”

Still, the children were following as they exhaled, wondering if the processes they had been doing so far had been in vain. After checking the scene, I increased my speed. From now on, I was going to make you feel really happy when you were in Mule.

Marching for another hour, I found a small vacant lot and managed to stop. When I looked back, I saw users with perspiration on their faces. I changed my senses for a moment, checked the surroundings, and opened my mouth calmly.

"I'll take a ten-minute break here. I'll look out for you, so you can all sit back and relax."

I said all the kids were lying there like they were collapsing. Ko Yeon-joo was stretching with the face of having worked out after a long time, while Vivien and Hayeon were sharing water with each other. Shin Sang-yong was also taking out his water bottle and putting a sip into the children's mouths.

"Isn't the march too fast?"

Ko Yeon-joo, who was looking at the scenery with a pleasant face, approached me and talked to me.

"It was a speed that I could catch up with my physical capacity of 50, or 450,000. I've been practicing for a long time, and I'm afraid I won't be able to keep up."

"Ho-ho. I followed him after all. The wizards literally managed to keep up, and two close-up users spent twice as much energy trying to take care of one who had fallen.”

As I turned my head to the horse, I could see that An Hyun was blowing a trumpet with Shin Sang-yong's water bottle in his mouth. His stamina is fine, but he wasted a lot of energy bringing Ahn Sol to the level he barely followed. And it was the same with oil wells. Later, Ansol was almost dragged to both arms. When I looked at his face, he was biting his lips and shaking his eyes, but he managed to hold back his tears.

"I don't want you to beg for a simple march. In fact, wizard users followed suit well. In the end, I'm just saying that my mental state is not good enough."

"Oh, it's different from when you were in the city. You're so strict."

Ko covered her mouth with a smile. And looking at the children for a while, I turned away, shaking my head.

============================ Review of the work ============================

Hello, I'm Ro Yu Jin.

Oh, I'm not feeling well these days. I thought my throat was swollen not too long ago, but I have a runny nose and a dizzy head today. I'm burning cigarettes, and my throat stings a lot and I'm going to die. I'm so dizzy that I can't even pay attention to other things. ㅜ.ㅠ

When I got home today, I thought about giving a day off notice, but I thought I would die in front of the computer even if I died, so I tapped it. I think I should go to bed right after updating my post. I hope you feel better after a nap. I hope you all watch out for cold in-between seasons. (__)
