Ethan knew what was happening and quickly rubbed his eyes as if to act he was asleep "I stayed up all night," he spoke, stifling a yawn.
"I wanted to get some sleep before we leave."
"We're leaving in a minute," Maria announced, her voice firm as she addressed the group. "Get your things."
There were nine of them altogether, six students, Maria, Dora, and the instructor of the second-year students.
For Ethan, this would be his first time in a dungeon, a mix of excitement and nervousness washed over him, his sword was at his side which he placed in his storage ring.
As they began their trek towards the cave, Ethan wondered what Hal was doing when his thoughts were interrupted by a voice beside him.
"Hi, I'm Sarah, a second-year student," said a girl who walked up beside him. She had long hair tied up in a neat ponytail and a cute face. She was tall, slightly taller than Ethan, and there was a certain calmness about her and she had long ears, she was an elf.
