Chapter 141: Irregular License Exam (28)
When he came back to his senses, the young man with the shield immediately looked around himself.
But he found that other than the two who were up against the wall, there was no one else here.
The Lizardman King was gone and the other two who had appeared out of thin air were also gone.
"What is going on here?! Where are they!? How dare they steal my boss!" The young man with the shield roared out.
He had called it his boss even though he had been running for his life not that long ago…
His shouting woke up the other two who slowly opened their eyes.
When both of them woke up, the first thing that they did was…check on each other.
They didn't even worry about their own injuries and immediately checked on each other.
It was as if they cared more about each other than themselves.
When they made sure that they were alright, they both let out a sigh of relief.
The young man with the pompadour said, "We survived, didn't we?"
The magical girl just gave a nod without saying anything.
Then they fell to silence once again.
It was as if both of them had something to say, but neither of them were willing to take that first step…
But that was all ruined by the young man with the shield.
He held his leg which had been bandaged up by Long Shui Ling as he walked over, but he came over and shouted, "Where are they? You useless pieces of sh*t, tell me where they are!"
Both the young man with the pompadour and the magical girl were surprised to hear what the young man with the shield asked, but both of them revealed confused looks in response to this.
They had been unconscious this entire time, so it wasn't as if they knew what he was asking them.
Seeing these looks on their faces, the young man with the shield became even angrier.
However, he was able to hold himself back in the end since he knew that there was no point in getting angry now.
Time was running out and since they had lost the dungeon boss, the only thing that they could do was kill other monsters to make up for that. If they let their grasp of the reins slip, it would only be a matter of time before other people caught up to them.
With a snort, the young man with the shield turned around and said, "Let's go, we're wasting time."
The other two looked at each other with dark looks, but they still followed him in the end.
However, the look in their eyes was much more hostile than before.
After being knocked into the wall, they had still maintained a bit of consciousness before fainting.
They had heard what the young man with the shield had shouted at the Lizardman King.
They knew…that he had tried to sacrifice them.
They didn't say anything about it, but that didn't mean that they didn't take it to heart.
This team…was doomed.
…
After getting away, I took a moment to rest while waiting for more monsters to be attracted by Long Shui Ling.
I wanted to take a look at the loot that I had received from Lizardman King and the guard lizardmen.
At the same time, I wanted to judge something with Long Shui Ling.
I pulled out a trident that I held up in front of my face, making sure that Long Shui Ling could also see it.
When I did, she turned to look at it with sparkling eyes as I had expected. However, what came next was not what I expected.
She just looked at it for a bit before saying, "That's a cool trident."
Then after that, she just went back to her own matters. It was as if she didn't care about these drops at all.
When I thought about it, it didn't actually seem strange.
This entire time, Long Shui Ling had never once cared about the drops. Even the monsters that she killed, she just left the drops for me.
Seeing that I looked at her like this, she looked at me and asked, "Is something wrong?"
I slowly asked, "About the drops…"
Long Shui Ling tilted her head as if she had to think about this, but then she said, "Oh, you can have everything. I just came to take the exam, not clear the dungeon, so you can just keep everything."
I couldn't help being surprised even though I had already expected this a bit.
Everything that Long Shui Ling had done so far had made her seem…like a young miss of a powerful family.
I had guessed that she wouldn't care about these few drops, but hearing it from her really was something else.
It seemed that she really did have the personality of a young miss.
There were quite a few good things from the dungeon that I hadn't checked yet, but she wasn't interested in them at all.
She either didn't have a proper judgement of money or…she had seen things that were much better than this.
In the end, this was only a D Rank Dungeon.
The biggest winner though was without a doubt the trident.
This trident was dropped by the dungeon boss and was a powerful magic weapon.
Though I couldn't just use it without registering it since people would be suspicious.
So I had to wait before taking this trident out.
As if on cue, there were footsteps that rang out in the distance.
I didn't need to turn to know what the source of that sound was.
Pulling out my sword, I prepared to face the visitors.
It was another group of elite sahuagins, so it was an easy bunch of points for me.
Once I had taken care of them, I looked at the rankings and revealed a satisfied look.
With the dungeon boss kill, I was now firmly in first place.
Second place was Long Shui Ling who had jumped up over the previous second place, but was still behind me because of the monsters I killed alone before teaming up with her.
With this gap, it was impossible for second place to even catch up to Long Shui Ling, let alone me.
So all that was left was waiting for the exam to end in less than an hour and exit the dungeon.
