Episode 31 Teacher and student reunion
After finishing the mock battle, Alisa returned to where Amane and the others were.
"You did your best. It was an impressive fight."
Alisa laughed happily at Amane's words.
"I have to thank Grimm-sensei."
Alisa nodded at Yukari's words. Chika spoke up at that time.
"When I went to the Adventurer's Guild, I met Grimm-sensei. He said he's been hunting in the Grassland Dungeon lately."
"Heee, the Grassland Dungeon? There are Orcs and Lizardmen there, so I guess that's what he's aiming for."
Amane guessed and said. Alisa who heard that suggested.
"If Grimm-sensei is going, shall we go too?"
It was difficult to raise the magic level in the Giant Tree Dungeon. Amane and the others discussed and decided to dive into the Grassland Dungeon.
The following Sunday, Amane and the others went to the Grassland Dungeon. After changing clothes at the dungeon house, they gathered in front of the dungeon.
"Grimm-sensei doesn't seem to be here."
Alisa said regretfully.
"On Sundays, there are more students, so he may have taken the day off."
"Yeah. I wanted to meet him, too bad."
While they were talking in front of the dungeon, another team of adventurers called out to them.
"Are you guys diving into this dungeon?"
A university-student-like adventurer approached Alisa and the others. Chika distorted her face in disgust.
Alisa represented them,
"We are, why?"
"The dungeon here is filled with Orcs and Lizardmen. It's dangerous, so should we go with you?"

Chika glared at the university students with a sharp gaze.
"It's fine. We're aiming for those Orcs and Lizardmen."
The university students shrugged their shoulders. One of them glared back at Chika.
"We're saying this out of kindness, but you're so impertinent ..."
A male voice interrupted when an uneasy atmosphere began to flow between Chika and the university student adventurer team.
"Oh, why are you at the Grassland Dungeon?"
Chika and the others turned their gaze towards the voice.
"Grimm-sensei ..."
◆◆◇◇◆◆◇◇◆◆
That day, I went to the Munakata Blacksmith Workshop in the morning and received the finished weapon.
"Is this okay?"
Blacksmith Munakata confirmed.
The crescent-shaped part of the blade was about 30 cm long, and the blade was thick like a hatchet, with blades on the inside and outside of the crescent moon. The handle was about seventy centimeters long and seemed to be made of red oak. The overall shape resembled a farming tool called a saw sickle, but the sharpness of its blade made it feel like it's not a farming tool.
"So you attached on a knuckle guard?"
"Yeah, you said you were scratched by a Ripper Cat before, so I put it on. If it's in the way, I'll remove it."
"No, this is fine. Thank you very much."
Munakata called this a 'Kamanata'. However, it is slightly different to call it a sickle, so I decided to call it 'Tatakanata'. It also came with a scabbard so I could hang it on my belt and carry it around.(TN:Sickle Machete vs Battle Machete)
Having acquired a new weapon, I wanted to test its usability and headed to the Grassland Dungeon. There, I noticed Amane and the others and called out to them.
"Oh, why are you at the Grassland Dungeon?"
"Grimm-sensei ..."
Amane and the others rushed over and surrouned me. I don't know what the situation is, but a university-student-like adventurer is glaring at me.
"It seems that your adventurer rank has become F-class. Congratulations."
Alisa raised her voice as she said it. She said it on purpose so that the university students could hear it.
The university students entered the dungeon with unamused faces. Most of the adventurers who come to beginner dungeons are G-class. They probably didn't want to cause a dispute with a higher-ranked person.
"Thank you. I ran into a problem I didn't like, but I managed to clear it. Oh, and the Horned Pig meat was delicious."
When I said that, they asked me what the unsuccessful task was, so I explained in detail.
They said that they would go to the Grassland Dungeon with me, so I changed clothes at the dungeon house and went outside.
"Wow, Grimm-sensei's adventurer style has changed."
Yukari raised her voice. The adventurer style that Yukari was talking about was my equipment.
I'm equipped with the Holy Silver Arm Guard I got from the Dungeon Boss, and I'm wearing a Holy Silver Dagger on the side of my waist. That being said, she must have raised her voice when she saw my new weapon.
Amane looked at me as if she was judging me from my toes to my head.
"Grimm-sensei, did you hit the jackpot in the intermediate level dungeon?"
"It's not an intermediate dungeon, but well, yeah. This arm guard and dagger are boss drops."
Amane and the others made envious faces all at once. And then, Chika focused her attention on the arm guard.
"Did you paint those arm guards yourself?"
If I left it as it was, it would be revealed that it was made of Holy Silver, so I painted it with black paint. She seemed to have noticed because it was a little uneven.
"Ah, it's a slightly special arm guard, so I painted it to deceive people."
Yukari seemed to be interested, and leaned forwards to ask a question.
"When you say special, do you mean it's Magic Equipment?"
Magic Equipment is equipment that incorporates special magical functions.
"It's not that special. Anything more is a secret."
Yukari looked displeased, but she didn't pursue it any further.
"Sensei, what is that weapon on your waist?"
"This is a weapon that is somewhere between a sickle and a machete."
I pulled it out of the sheath and showed it to them, Chika fixedly looked at the blade.
"This is made of black iron ... it's a brutal looking weapon."
"Aah, it's because the opponent is monsters. I thought I should finish them as soon as possible."
Amane and Alisa nodded. Amane in particular was looking at me enviously.
We entered the dungeon. Our first encounter was with Goblins.
"I want to try my new weapon, so leave it to me."
Amane and the others took a step back and began to watch how I would fight.
I prepared myself to fight without using life magic. The Goblin jumped closer and raised its club. At that moment, I swing at the goblin's neck with the Tatakanata. The tip of the blade decapitated its neck.
"It's sharper than I expected. If it's like this, it seems it will work even in intermediate dungeons."
