Masks enchanted with perception reduction magic.

Wearing these would prevent humans from recognizing us and guessing our identities.

Rustle, rustle-.

As the students who had finished eating were putting on their masks one by one.

Suddenly, a masked girl approached me and reached out her hand.

I narrowed my eyes and scanned her whole body.

Her shoulders were trembling pitifully.

‘Who is she…….’

I thought, and then I noticed her blue hair fluttering in the wind and realized it was Fron.

Fortunately, even when we were wearing masks, only our faces were obscured, not our bodies' other distinguishing features.

Fron pleaded with me in a parched voice.

"Please, give me some water……"

"I understand."

I took out the water bottle I had gotten from the dungeon and handed it to Fron.

Although the jerky that Luna had brought was in short supply and couldn't be shared with all the students, we had more than enough drinking water.

Not enough to wash our bodies, but enough for all the students to drink for five days.

“Ah, please don’t put your mouth on it and drink. The other students need to drink too.”

"I will do as you say."

Gulp, gulp.

Fron nodded and began to drink the water.

Fron breathed out after drinking water for dozens of seconds.

"Hoo…… I feel alive again."

"If you're done, please hand it over. It looks like the others want to drink, too."

“Don’t rush me, here you go.”

Thud-.

I took the water flask from Fron and handed it to another student.

That student also drank the water and then handed the water bottle to another student, and the action was repeated several times.

Everyone had drunk enough water to be satisfied.

If we had gone looking for a stream to get drinking water, we would have wasted a lot of time and energy.

We might have even run into humans in the process.

I asked Fron with a raised eyebrow.

"What do you think? Isn't it a pretty useful artifact?"

"It is indeed useful. A water flask that can provide water for dozens of people."

Fron nodded as if to admit it, but still complained.

"It doesn't seem like a very good reward for a dungeon, but I will admit that it is useful."

Oh, boy.

She's going to be like this until the end.

But I could understand where Fron was coming from, so I kept my mouth shut instead of arguing.

She had only seen secret realms in the Demon Realm.

It would be strange if she wasn’t curious about the secret realms of the human world.

But the first artifact she obtained from conquering a human world secret realm was just a water flask and sandbags, so she was grumbling.

‘The greater the expectation, the greater the disappointment.’

Just bear with it, bear with it.

I let out a sigh and activated my mana again.

I wanted to check what was happening from Samuel’s perspective since we had all finished eating.

The moment I synchronized with Sijo-.

“……!”

My eyes widened.

Something was descending from the Imperial Academy.

I widened my eyes further to observe the scene clearly.

Then, the dot in my vision zoomed in.

‘……What an imposing sight.’

What was descending from the Imperial Academy to the ground was a ‘golden carriage.’

Which one had to ride to go up or down to the Imperial Academy.

A carriage that scattered bright yellow sparks of gold everywhere, showing off.

Its appearance was so blinding that it was like the sun.

Furthermore, what was pulling it was none other than two brown horses with flames for manes.

Their harmonious figures looked like a scene from a myth.

‘…….’

Samuel, who was watching the scene with Sijo, must have also felt that it was extraordinary because he was staring at the carriage reaching the ground with a hardened expression.

I felt troubled by that expression.

‘I can’t convey my words here, so this is driving me crazy.’

Sijo could share its vision, but it couldn’t transmit voices.

I could only watch.

I could roughly guess what Samuel was saying by looking at the shape of his mouth, but even that wasn’t accurate.

Furthermore, it was completely impossible to convey what I wanted to say.

‘This is difficult.’

I had to tell Samuel when to leave his seat and come this way.

However, there was no way to tell him, so I had no choice but to hope that Samuel would leave his seat at the right time.

……It’s still okay for now.

For now.

The bastards hadn’t approached close enough to sense Samuel’s presence yet.

That was when I anxiously watched Samuel.

.

.

.

Thud.

Before I knew it, the golden carriage had landed on the ground.

The place where they landed was a short distance away from Samuel.

It was quite a distance, but if I looked very closely, I could infer the shape of their mouths.

And in the carriage.

The human students of the Imperial Academy and the instructor leading them emerged.
