Chapter 5 Test

I fell face first into the dungeon.That was how I entered my first dungeon. When I came back to my senses, I couldn't help revealing a bitter smile as I said to myself, "It seems like they really want to kill me…" Shaking my head, I gave a sigh before revealing a firm look. The first thing that I had to do now was figure out where I was. Since this was a training dungeon, it meant that this was a dungeon that was fully under control of the school. They were able to control where each person that was sent into the dungeon would end up. Normally, they would send people into the zones where the F Rank Monsters were, but it was clear that this wasn't that place. Judging by the bones that were on the ground around me, it seemed like this was the location of much higher ranked monsters. An E Ranked Dungeon would have monsters ranging from D Rank to F Rank, so if I had to guess… This was most likely the territory of some kind of D Rank Monster. Searᴄh the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. That was where I would send someone if I wanted to kill them. Once I saw what my surroundings were like, I focused on the paths that were in front of me. There were three different paths for me to go and it seemed like all of them led to the same place. It was just a good thing that there was this light in this dungeon even though this was clearly a cave that lit up the entire place, which was why I could see everything. After looking at the three paths in silence for a bit, I shook my head and said with a bitter laugh, "Does it even matter which path I take?" After all, I hadn't even received a map for this dungeon in the first place, so I wouldn't know where I was. The only thing that I could do now was pick one path and stick to it. All I could do was hope that one of these paths led to a place with other people or an exit. So I chose the one on the right. It wasn't that there was something special about this path, it was just that this was the path that was closest to me. I was about to head down this path, but… "Grrr…" There was this low growling that came from in front of me. I deeply knitted my brows the moment that I heard this since I knew what this sound was. I had studied the known monsters in this dungeon before coming here, so I knew that this was the sound of the D Rank Gale Wolves. As I had expected, I had been sent into the territory of a D Rank Monster. The problem was how to get out of this place. There was no path backwards and there were only these three paths in front of me, but the growling was coming from all three of these paths. No matter how one looked at it, it seemed that I was trapped here… Since there was this growling coming from all three tunnels, it wasn't as if I could just go down any of them. Being trapped in the tunnels with the Gale Wolves was certainly more dangerous than being in this open space. At least in this open space, I would have room to move around and fight against the Gale Wolves if it was necessary. It was just that it didn't seem like I would be able to fight against the Gale Wolves. These were D Rank Monsters and I was someone who had a 9th Class Low Grade Familiar. My familiar was even a bat familiar that didn't seem to have any combat capabilities. That was except for… I couldn't help thinking of the extra skills that only I could see in my familiar's status screen. "If I'm about to die, then there's nothing to lose." A bitter smile appeared on my face as I said this, "I might as well test it and see if it works." With that, I summoned the Echo Bat out of the Familiar Space. This was the space that was engraved on each summoner when they summoned their first familiar. It was a space that familiars could go into so that they wouldn't have to follow summoners around outside. After all, there were some familiars that were really big. When the Echo Bat came out, it came up and pressed itself against me like before. It was rubbing its face against me like it was happy to see me again, even though we had just seen each other not that long ago. I shook my head with another bitter smile before saying, "Not now, enemies are coming." When the Echo Bat heard this, it immediately stopped doing what it was doing and flew up onto my shoulder. It opened up its wings and pushed its head forward while opening its mouth, as if it was releasing something. Though I couldn't hear what it was releasing, I knew what it was doing. It was using its echolocation to scout out the area. Not long after, it pointed in the direction of one of the tunnels. Seeing the Echo Bat like this made the bitter smile on my face fill with more bitterness. That was because I could already see the Gale Wolf that was heading in my direction. The Echo Bat only had a twenty meter range to its echolocation and by that point, I would be able to see the Gale Wolves approaching already. There was no point to it using its echolocation at all once that happened. But I didn't discourage it as I said, "Can you use that other skill of yours?" The Echo Bat gave a nod before looking at me as if it was waiting for an order. Seeing this, I decided to take a chance and test it out. I turned to look at the Gale Wolves that were slowly approaching me, looking at me as if they were looking at easy prey. Then all of a sudden, I said, "Freeze." At that, the Echo Bat opened its mouth again and released another cry. The moment that this was released, all of the Gale Wolves that had been approaching me suddenly froze.
