Volume 7 Chapter 10: Carrot And Stick

"What?! You're going out to explore another dungeon?!" Cadmus almost spat out his food. Are you kidding me?! They explored a dungeon not that long ago. Especially so with this kid! That guy went to a S-rank dungeon by himself!

"Yes, we're going to another dungeon for training." Keith nodded as he ate his steak. 

"Then what about the food?" That was the only thing he cared about! 

"Relax. I will prepare some meals before we go. So don't worry about anything." He glanced at Aidiun and Diana. Those two were going to keep watch over it.  

Understood. The dorm mother and manager understood the task. 

"Good." Cadmus was content as he continued to eat. 

"Before we head to the dungeon, we need to cram!" Keith clapped his hand. 

"Eh?"

"Don't "eh," me. We all need to get our studies in before we can go. We're going to skip at least a few days." Herrick and Melor would definitely fail if they skipped. 

"Come on!" Herrick and Melor wanted to cry. 

"Professor Aidiun will test you. If you guys fail, you don't get to come along with us." Keith had a devious grin. 

The carrot and the stick.

"Then we will pass!" The two roared! There was no way they could fail. Not when they had the chance to explore another dungeon! 

Scarlet nudged Alfia, "Are they always like this?"

"Yep, he has then hooked, line, and sinker." The others could only watch this. Keith could order Herrick and Melor left and right if he wanted. 

...

The next day, Carolyn entered the classroom. But when she did, she had an intrigued expression. What's going on? She asked Keith, "Is there something wrong with them?" She was talking about Herrick and Melor; the two had intense looks. What made it weird was what they had before them. They were looking down at some books. 

That in itself was strange. 

"Stuff." Keith had a mischievous grin. 

Carolyn turned to Alfia and the others, who shook their heads. I see. So he did something again. 

"By the way, we're going to a dungeon again. Do you want to come with us?" Having Carolyn with them would be great. She was a mage with quite a high attack power. 

"When are we going?" Carolyn was excited. Going to another dungeon was going to be great.  

"In two days." 

Hearing this, that excitement died down, "I can't do that. I have plans in these few days." 

"Ahh, I see. You really have a lot of things to do. Are you alright? You're not overworking yourself, right?" 

"I'm fine. You don't need to worry about it. I can take care of myself." Carolyn shook her head. 

"...Alright." 

Alfia wanted to say something to Keith when, 

"Come on! Why is this so hard?!" Herrick slammed his head onto the table as he groaned. None of this was going through to his head! What he needed was a new brain or something to absorb all this information. 

"Let me see what's going on." A sigh came out of Keith's mouth. Keith would be there to help them when they were having a difficult time. 

"What are we going to do?!" Herrick wanted to cry. Aidiun was going to have a test for them tomorrow. 

The only thing they could do was to cram like no tomorrow! 

...

"The two of them look so tense." Gabriel and the others stared at the two. They had such a serious expression, ready to destroy the world. 

"I don't think I could tease them either." Even Alfia felt kinda bad for the two. 

"Let's begin." Aidiun handed the test over to the two. And like that, Herrick and Melor started to move. 

Aidiun stared at the two's test. Whatever happened next was going to determine their fate!

"You guys passed by the skin of your teeth again."
