A lot of things have happened, but we've come this far.
Well, I feel like there's a lot going on here.

　If you ask a newcomer what is the most important thing in a dungeon tester, most of them might answer that it is the ability to fight.
　It is a fact that it is important in terms of the actual job description, so you can't blame them for thinking so.
　To begin with, newcomers often come to the company with a great deal of ideals.
　They think that a spectacular job is waiting for them.
　Rookie testers who will have such wrong but not wrong imaginations will come in.
　Forty-two dungeon testers, full-time employees.
　Forty-two full-time dungeon testers and sixty-three part-time workers.
　A total of one hundred and five.
　That's the number of the second cohort.
　These are the eggs who have joined the company as innocents, not yet knowing the battle, and using only their imagination to fill in the blanks.
　It's not surprising that they are thinking that.

"The question is how much more is left from here, but I don't think Evia and Suela are going to do anything about it. I'm sure it's going to be a good deal, and it won't be the same as it was for me.

　Now, all of a sudden, what is the difference between our first year students and those rookies who still do not know what's left and right?
　Various parts come out clearly if asked.
　One year is a short and long time.
　I'm sure you can think of many things you can do in that time.
　The equipment and the relationships are the same.
　The experience you can gain in a year is not to be underestimated.
　But if you ask me if any of them are the most important, I'll say no.
And I would add that a one year advantage is not an absolute advantage.

I'm told things are going well so far with the newbie training.

　So what is important?
　The most important thing in this company is overall strength, although it is a bit ostentatious, but the point is that everything is important.
　The more dungeons you take on, the more you'll find out what you're missing.
　It's not enough to just be able to fight.
　It is not enough to have only knowledge.
　It's not enough to just have tools.
　I can assure you that you can do this job with all of your mind, body and spirit.

This is just a stepping stone to what we did at the pre-conference meeting, though. That's where you come in as a dungeon tester. What we're doing is not training to fight, but mainly basic physical fitness and classroom training, which is why some people complain about it.

　For a rookie, you were expecting to be handed a piece of equipment and told it's time to start your adventure, but what you're doing is a joint physical exercise.
　This training includes a test of humanity and physical ability from the company, as well as a test to see if they are fit to be a fighter.
　Naturally, this is unknown to the newcomers, and what is said is what is said.
　Let's hope they are quietly working to build up their strength.
　After all, stamina is also an important factor in dungeon attack.
　I hope the newcomers will be patient.
　It is only when these various factors come together that dungeon attack and improvement go hand in hand.
　The hardest part of this job is that it is not just a matter of clearing the dungeon and finishing it.
　The contradictions of capturing and preventing the capturing are mixed together.

"It's not the kind of training where you get blown up by an instructor like we did, but there are going to be people who will complain about the lackluster training.

　These newcomers would never think of such a thing.
　I'm sure they are still dreaming and excited about their own success.
　Although the number of recruits has decreased slightly since the recent pre-briefing, it is more than double the number of recruits compared to the first class.
　The number of people joining the company is such that you might be tempted to say, "I'm not a big company somewhere.
　The number of recruits from abroad is really rich.
　Not only from Japan, but also from Europe, Southeast Asia, America, Russia, etc.
　The result of the second batch of recruits, regardless of gender, is the second batch of students.

Physical strength and knowledge are important. You won't know that until you start working.
No, the leader and Kaido senpai, standing on a pole with a jar in their hands, half-naked, is a scene of manga training, that it is.
"What's the matter with you, Minami? We can't complain about it, because even the magic manipulation training is like a comic book from the outside.

　While these newcomers are working hard, we at Moonlight Perch are not testing dungeons today, but doing our daily basic training.
　Fighting is not our only job; we regularly do this kind of physical training.
　As the vanguard, Kaido and I stand on a three-meter-long bamboo pole that is stuck vertically, as Minami told us to do, with our hands spread out and a bottle of water in our left and right hands.
　You can train your core, grip strength, concentration, stamina and various other parts of your body at once.
　In addition, the liquid in the bottle can change its weight by absorbing its own magic power.
　From Minami's point of view, this training may be called brain power, but both Kaido and I are used to it to the extent that we can chat about it like this.
　But just because we're used to it doesn't mean it's not hard.
　The shaking arms and the recoil of the bamboo pole, all of which are controlled at the level of a spinal reflex, are hard to bring to the point where you can maintain your position and chat with them.
　I'm sure you'll find that Kitamiya is right about the training of their magicians being similar.

You are right, Kitamiya-chan, you are right - even Minami-chan can't help but want to say where in space. What's up with gravity?
"I hear gravity wants to apply for a paid job once in a while, that it does - especially around me.
It's great that you have it under control, but it gives me a headache to watch.

　Kitamiya and Minami are zazen with each other, floating themselves in the air, and floating weights around them.
　It's a sight that may be called a supernatural power, but this is all controlled by magic power.
　The training is to circulate one's own magic power and distribute it around, and to take control of that magic power by floating weights.
　The effects are an improvement in the ability to control magic, an increase in magic power, and an improvement in parallelism.
　While Kitamiya makes an orderly, celestial motion and sometimes imposes complex movements on the weights, the south is the complete opposite of Kitamiya.
　The weights are just as chaotic as Kaido says, the weights are moving around the south in all directions at irregular and uneven speeds, yet there is no sign of contact between them.
　Occasionally they seem to touch, but they are just barely touching each other.
　I take my hat off to the South's ability to keep it all under control.

"Mu, that makes our training look a little tame!
No, it's actually quite plain.

　It's a good thing that you're not going to be able to get a good look at your own personal life.

You can't blame them, Amelia hasn't been able to control her magic power to that extent yet. Don't tell me you've forgotten the last time we did this same training and scattered the weights around like they were claymore mines.


"Ugh, that being said, .........
"Ha-ha, I thought I was going to die with that one.

　What Amelia is doing is the rudiments of controlling magic power, a part-time job or a side job of pouring a certain amount of magic power into the magic stone.
　It's not that you can't see it, it's that you can't see it, but it's that you can't control it.
　To put it another way, what used to be a household water supply is now a fire hydrant-like tap.
　The force to open and close it seems to be quite difficult to find, so I'm pouring magic power into the little magic stone just like recharging a battery.

"It's fine to mingle with the chatter, but if you're not careful,
"Oh!"?
I'm going to crush you, now that's a dozen.

　If you poured too much into it, it would make a beautiful sound and the magic stones would shatter.
　You can find a number of magic stones at the side of Katsu, who smiles at the situation and hands over a new magic stone, which is incomparable to Amelia's. The reason why Katsu does this is simple: to strengthen the magic power, which is not in the realm of the south and north palace.
　The reason why Katsu does it is simply to strengthen the magic power, the sight of him filling up the magic stones like this is a familiar sight as he does not enter the realm of the south and north palace.

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're talking about," he said.　I've heard a lot of talk about training, but I don't really hear about who's good or interesting,
I've heard it's a pretty unique group of people, but I haven't heard any details yet.

　With Amelia, who is sweeping away the dented, almost onomatopoeic remains of the magical stone with her little broom, Kaido changes the subject.
　Speaking of content, there's a recent increase in the number of newcomers to our team.
　After the incident with Kawasaki, our people have started to pay more attention to the newcomers for some reason.
　It's not so much that we're simply wary, but right now we're still simply curious.
　It's also true that not everyone is like Kawasaki.
　Others, like Benny, are friendly and easy to talk to.
　Maybe that's why we often talk about what kind of juniors we have.
　However, just like Kaido said, it will take some time for those personalities to show their faces to the public.

It's just a matter of basic training, so it's better to talk about it when we only know whether you have good or bad motor skills.
"You know, there are things like, you know, running 100 meters in three seconds.
I wouldn't have been able to do that in the old days, but I would have gotten away from the instructors for a bit.
You know as well as I do.... You know how inactive I am! It would have taken me more than ten seconds to carve my magic mark, that I would have done it.
I'm a little faster than I usually am, too.
"Hmmm, was I good enough?　I don't know, I was in another world, but I was faster than usual!

　What do you expect from your physical training, and the topic of us training like cartoons, but I'm just chatting.

It's a good thing that you're not going to have to worry about it. You can't say that about us.
"Hey, I don't want you to be with me!　I'm not that much of a problematic person.
I'm not. I've been on the problematic side too.
"I have no comment, that I do not.
"Hahahaha, I was the least of all the troublemakers when it comes to that.
I'm ......... no nothing.

　And if you change the subject to the bizarre or the weird, the people here are all doing something.
　I'm not in a position to complain about it.

I'm not saying this, but it's all about cute girls and that kind of thing, isn't it?
"I'll pass on that one. I'm not sure I can get excited when I have four potential beautiful wives.
"I'll pass too.
"I am too, that I am.
I'm not so sure about that side of things either.
I might as well.
"What?　This is the kind of thing that usually gets people excited.　Why aren't you guys into it?

　And if men and women were together, the topic of appearance would come up, but this topic was the least exciting.
　Kaido, thinking that since people from various countries are gathered here, it should be a lively topic, raised the subject, but everyone shook their heads left and right and asked for approval, but everyone was reluctant to talk about it.
　And so it is.
　I'm Suela, Memoria, Himik and Evia.
　What more can you ask for when you're surrounded by four different kinds of beauties?
　The topic is currently close to taboo for Kitamiya and Minami.
　I wonder if Katsu was of a similar mind or was hesitant to say it because of the atmosphere.
　Amelia would be the easiest to answer.
　I saw that there are more important things to do now than love.

"To sum up what we've been talking about so far, we have a large number of people, but it's not very impressive, that it is, isn't it?
"Let's just say I'm not a company that's happy with that kind of talent.
"Oh, you're right. The leader's intuition, that it is?
Experience.

　To summarize what we've been talking about, I'm sure you know what I mean.
　I have a vague sense that the newcomers gathered this year are not all ordinary.
　I'm not sure what that is.
　Only one thing is certain.

"And we can't keep worrying about the newcomers. We have our own barriers to cross, too, don't forget.
I know, that I do.
Huh, I was just trying to forget about it.
"Get a grip. For once, we were not good enough.
"Ugh, I wonder if we will really win,
You just have to keep trying.

　If you're going to move forward, the day will come when you will stop.



"Not doing it is not an option. We'll meet later to figure out what to do.

　We have to take the defeat we suffered in the dungeon attack that was going so well.


　Word of the Day
　The perspectives of others are always changing.
