The two Awakened were dumbfounded at what had just happened. They even rubbed their eyes, wondering if they had been hallucinating. Because the creature, for some reason, didn't target their vitals, the two Awakened were still very much alive.
However, if left unattended for too long, they might lose their lives. Still, it gave them a moment to think about what had just transpired.
"Is this a hidden part of the entrance exam?" The female Awakened mumbled to herself in a slightly dazed voice.
"It must be, because why would a beast attack us and only steal our tokens?" The other boy nodded his head, and the previous battle intensity on his face was gone. The two even momentarily forgot that they were about to engage in a brutal, bloody fight.
Above them, on top of the branch of a tree that was several diameters wide, even the instructors who had been keeping an eye on the two had a dumbfounded expression as he tried to register what had just happened.
