Dungeon Prowler : One Man Army 35 A Spy's Tale

It has not been two and a half weeks since Jules has been monitoring Debauchery and their teaching hall, he duly noted down all actions that were performed. Although being unable to hear the conversations inside the number 5 hall has been detrimental to the strategist he is working with, there was no way for Jules to get close enough for eavesdropping without offending debauchery. Just yesterday Jules was lucky enough to witness Debauchery handling 4 of his co-workers like they were catching snails, that morning he thanked his lucky stars that all he did was a use a spell that allows him to see through walls, and he did it openly. It dawned on him that secrets are being exchanged in there and he would stand to gain nothing from hearing such things, thus the complaints of the strategist were neglected in favour of his own health.

Today there a few more eavesdroppers and no matter how they entice him, Jules decided it was not worth it, until his employer ordered him to get something no matter how mundane it was. It has been about half an hour since the lesson started when Jules joined his fellows who were listening in, he activated his spell and the crisp voice of Leader came into his ears " please list out the plans you would consider while teaching grappling…." then came a very mundane discussion led by the students on how they would teach others grappling, and soon a plan was agreed upon by all was taken into action.

It started with the dwarf talking generally about how grappling works, its advantages and where to best use it, what you might call a typical lesson. When it came to the last part the dwarf asked the kids "how do you plan on doing the demonstration?", one kid who looked like an aristocrat with an easy att.i.tude said "why not use the ones who are listening in, if there are any, let them be the test subject and they get to hear what we are saying without wasting mana, if there are none, i guess Dustan is durable enough". Jules felt a hint of danger and his heart constricted when he saw Leader nod her head, he wanted to leave as soon as possible but before he could move a muscle there was a lykan standing before him and from behind he heard a voice that felt like coming from the depths of h.e.l.l "please join our lesson voluntarily, otherwise you will be forced to join like those from yesterday, we promise not kill or permanently injure you in return for your voluntary partic.i.p.ation, any who are forced into it do not have the aforementioned rights, choose wisely"

Jules stayed still, he watched as those fellows who tried to flee were knocked out and carried back like wet socks, those who surrendered were escorted into the hall, all that was left was Jules alone standing there, he did not want to be part of the lesson and surely he did not dare to run although neither the demon from h.e.l.l nor the lykan paid attention to h he knew there was no way out of it, thus he chose to be done with it and never come near these people ever again, when he walked inside he was received warmly by an elf "glad you decided to join us, do you prefer to go first or wait for your turn?". "First" answered Jules he would rather be done with this sooner than later, he surely did not which to see any techniques the dwarf had to showcase.

Jules strode to the dwarf ready to feel pain, but he was happily surprised by the first part of the lesson, were the dwarf only showcased the best location to grab when grappling an unarmed opponent, other than a few touches by the kids and being spun and positioned like a mannequin, soon his turn was over and was politely sent away by the elf. He ran the moment he stepped out of the hall, straight to his employer notifying him that he would not risk his life anymore with those maniacs, and so taking half the payment, thinking he was lucky enough to escape with his life and body intact was worth the rest of the payment.

Back inside hall number 5 Balin had gone from theoretical to practical, and thanks to the untrained hands of the students, bone chilling screams sounded inside the hall as Yunan, Leol and Reina practiced each move as showcased by balin. Each move he showed was a way to cripple and maim, broken bones, dislocated joints, strained muscles, paralysed limbs, blinded, disoriented and confused the poor unlucky recipients

The injured were healed over and over and over again, many who pa.s.sed out due to pain woke up thanks to another pain, soon the students started having pity on them and felt bad for injuring them anymore, and the lesson turned from just grappling to strength regulation, during this part, the teacher changed to Bai, who taught the kids how to judge how much force is necessary to perform the grappling with minimal injury when the objective is subduing and not killing. Bai did not forget to teach the kids all the cheap shots Balin had left out from the lesson.

At the end of the lesson those who joined voluntarily were released, while those who ran away were left inside with all their injuries unhealed and groaning from pain. "The last part of your planning lesson, what do you do to those who resist a good offer when they are overwhelmed?" Leader asked her students who were tired and hungry "interrogation, find all they can say without killing them then we can decide what to do with the information after lunch" Reina answered "they have been tortured enough i a.s.sume they won't need much coercion". leader nodded to Bai and dismissed cla.s.s for lunch.
