Chapter 395 The Dungeon Notice
The Royal Estate's open field, which was empty just yesterday, was packed to the brim with all the nine Otherworlders.
Well, eight of them—since Adonis went to meet the Royal Council after making the announcement that all of them should all rendezvous at this point in time.
As such, the students all waited for any sign of the Hero and the leaders of the Alliance.
"What's going on now?"
"Why's there another meeting when we just had one yesterday?"
"I'm supposed to be chilling in the town today, you know?"
"Hopefully, this doesn't take too long..."
Thankfully, the latter's statement was answered by the appearance of the Royal Council Members and Adonis from within a swirling portal.
Everyone instantly recognized the portal, so they kept their eyes peeled on its entrance, but the spatial rift just closed as abruptly as it opened.
There was no sign of the Dark Adventurer at all.
"EHHHHHHHH...?!"
The students all responded with surprise, seeing only three—rather than four—to emerge from the warped space.
"We just concluded a meeting with Sir Ralyks, but he had to quickly attend to something so he couldn't stop by." Adonis quickly addressed the voices of the students, but it wasn't enough.
"N-not even to say hi...?" Belle's face was particularly crestfallen.
"W-well... he does send his regards." Adonis quickly added, hoping it would help lighten up the mood.
Thankfully, it did!
"I-I see! I understand now!" Belle's blushing face connoted that she misunderstood Adonis' words, but he had no intention of correcting her.
Instead, he left the girl to her giggles and squeals, focusing on the most pertinent matter.
"Sir Conrad and Miss Vida have important things to say, so I'll leave it to them."
Despite saying this, Adonis did not join the rest of the students—most of which were already seated in the open field. Instead, he took responsibility as one of the people who had to make the decision that was about to be revealed.
His face was solemn, but it oozed of confidence.
As a result, they could all relate to what Vida was saying.
"It's likely that, just the same way the Grand Calamity Dungeon of the past disappeared after ten days, this one will also do the same." She added.
"Any specific reason for that?" Alicia asked.
"None whatsoever. However, it's only logical to expect similar results from similar objects of investigation."
It was merely an act of association.
If one encounters a Dragon for the first time—having no prior knowledge of the beast—there tends not to be any kind of expectation towards the thing.
However, after the first encounter, if one observes the violent tendencies of the creature and associates it with danger, then the next time they are to see a Dragon, that bias is bound exist.
Of course, other factors could have contributed to the first Dragon being dangerous, which may not exist in the second instance. For example, the first Dragon could have been a terrible entity who was banished from the rest of the kind Dragons.
However, when associating with the second Dragon, none of those variables will come to mind. The safest assumption to make is to associate Dragons with danger.
"As such, it's safer to bet that the Dungeon will act a certain way, the same way we have determined that it is very dangerous."
"I see. Makes sense." Alicia returned to her seat once she was done with her clarification.
Hence, Vida continued.
"Usually, the Adventurer City has a certain level of autonomy, so they do not report most of the activities that go on there to the Capital. But, the appearance of a Dungeon of this scale is an exception. We received a report of this yesterday night, along with something else..."
Conrad stepped forward to complete the words of his partner.
"The Adventurers want to challenge the Grand Calamity Dungeon this time, and they are requesting our assistance."
