"If you have any thoughts about our performance, feel free to share them. They can always benefit from opinions from experienced people." Alicia said when she saw Amon hesitate.

Hearing this, Amon shrugged and pointed at Jordan.

"I was just wondering how Jordan had the potential to become much much stronger. To the point of being able to solo clear the whole dungeon except the boss."

"I can't fight ten skeletons on my own." Jordan said as he looked at Amon with a frown.

"That's why I said potential."

Amon then pointed at the other three one by one, "Patrick is a great tank and a great leader. He isn't afraid to take a bit more damage if things go wrong a little. But at the end of the day, a tank is just a tank. He can't do much by himself.

"Patricia's timing is perfection. She knows when to use her skills and when not to. But her skills are all restrictive type spells that barely have much damage. Yet again, she's merely a mage and she can't do much on her own with just her control skills.

"Do I even need to say anything about Kenji? Priest is a great class and it's a must have in any team if you want to make the dungeon runs easy. But again, little to no damage."

Then, Amon looked at Jordan, "But Jordan is different. He has an offensive class that gives him both agility and strength, both of which are a must in my eyes for a great offensive class.

If it comes to teams, I'd focus on classes that concentrate their stats on strength but if I wish to make a small team, then I'd pick ones who have the ability to both dodge and survive."

"My vitality is at eight." Jordan said as he stared at Amon, trying to understand what he was blabbering about.

"Agility. You don't need to worry about your health as long as you can dodge attacks. Also, even though you have the dual swordmaster class, you use your right arm more. You're not ambidextrous and it looks like you haven't tried to use your left arm more either.

"Everyone in your team is doing their best of what their class can offer but you… you're a slacker."

'Yes he is. He doesn't train and he doesn't talk to people either. The only reason he managed to get to such a high level despite that, was because Patricia got him into the team. Hah… blessed with great looks too. Why would he have the desire to practice when he automatically gets both women, experience to level up and money just by doing the bare minimum?' Kenji thought but he did not voice out his thoughts.

Jordan on the other hand, stared at Amon in silence for a few seconds before raising his hand, "Duel me."

"If we duel this time, I will kill you. Even if Alicia tries to stop me, I will crush your body until it's meat paste so put your sword down before you piss me off."

The dark tunnel suddenly felt cold as Amon finished speaking. Patricia opened her eyes wide as she turned to look at Jordan. She had never seen him take a step back against anyone but this time, his hand instantly went down.

"Disrespectful brat." Amon commented before he turned to look at Alicia, "He'll die a gruesome death if he leaves the academy for sure."

"I know." She said and paused for a moment before adding, "The headmaster hopes that he'll learn something by having friends."

"One sided friendship isn't gonna work." Amon shrugged and walked forward.

Jordan bit his lip as he glared at Amon before his expression relaxed slightly, "How."

Amon turned around, "How what?"

"How do I get better? I couldn't find any skill that helped me with dual swords in the market. I don't know how to train."

"I don't know how to train either." Amon said and shrugged, "But my class doesn't rely on weapons, yours does. It's your choice on how you wish to improve."

Jordan looked down at his swords before saying, "How…"

"Do I have to fucking spoon feed you everything? Everyone has their own way of dealing with stuff. If I had your class and I was right handed, I would trust my friends to have my back while I messed around with just using my left hand.

"I'd do it until it feels natural to use my left hand just as much as my right. You don't have to be born ambidextrous, you can also train yourself to be one. You also need to learn how to dodge. Right now, you're just using your speed to get close to the monsters and rush back when you're about to get hit.

Instead of taking steps backwards, you should learn how to move to the side. To dodge attacks while staying on the offensive. This will not only improve your efficiency but it'll also give you a reliable method to stay safe. You won't have to keep replacing your armor multiple times."

"But if I get hit once, my armor will break. My health points are just seventy."

"Buy tanky items. Ones that give you vitality and health boosts. Then spar with Patrick since he's pretty decent with his shield and sword. Learn how to parry, dodge and attack without having to overly rely on retreating a few steps back."

For the first time, Jordan did not make any excuses and just nodded in response.

"Good, let's go then. Just a few more skeletons and then we do the boss." Amon said as he patted Patrick's shoulder, "Come on, you're the one supposed to lead us."

"With your observational capabilities… I think you should be the one leading us at this point. Maybe you have pointers for the rest of us too?"

Amon shook his head, "I have nothing for now but maybe I'll find something during the fight against the boss."

"I was just wondering… what kind of student were you during your time at the academy?" Patricia asked as she skipped forward, standing between her brother and Amon.

Hearing such a question, Amon thought for a moment and chuckled as he glanced at Alicia.

"I was a nerdy kid who confessed to a married professor."
