Demon Hunt Festival

"Ugh... Ugh...!"

"Damn it... Why did it come to this..."

"I-I don't want to die..."

Running through the plains were two female students. They were both third-year knight students and participants in the Demon Hunt Festival. They had originally entered with three other close friends, but had suddenly been attacked by a powerful monster, becoming separated and now fleeing for their lives.

"I shouldn't have entered this stupid festival..."

Holding each other's hands, they ran desperately across the plains, tears streaming from both their faces. They had entered the Demon Hunt Festival on a whim, wanting to create some memories with friends before they graduated. They both already had fiancés and were set to marry into their respective households after graduation. Not aiming for positions in the knight order, they had no need to achieve great results in the event, and simply wanted to participate for fun.
