The Giant squid (3)

{ Team 5 }

{ Total time: 45 minutes

36 seconds(entire time to find the monster, kill it and come back) . 18 /200 }

18th out of 100 teams.

Though her team finished in the upper half of the teams, Luna Primrose's expression couldn't be said to be good.

But since grades were based on individual performances filmed through magic drones, she didn't mind too much.

Understandably, Zephyr and Babel Von Agnus's teams took first and second place respectively. But she was bitter that Julia's team came in higher.

"The magic drones filmed everything. The video projection will be sent to your dorms, so why you were quick or slow to hunt your monster, your team's compatibility with the monster, and how you could improve for next time. Be sure to study and focus on those points, It'll be part of your grades."

Professor Keating gave a long-winded statement.

Luna lightly turned her head and looked behind her.

Her teamates were standing there.

A nervous looking girl was resting with a water bottle beside her.

It was entirely her fault that her team came in late. She didn't have any stamina which made them late to reach the monster.

What should have taken just 10 minutes ended up taking 20 minutes.

Beside Olivia was an average looking silent boy.

He was a assassin and a close combat warrior, considering that there was little he could in front-on confrontation, he played his role very well. He even cut off two of the squids tentacles, which made the fight eaiser.

Standing beside him was a slightly more handsome boy, yawning in a daze.

It was also his fault that they were ranked low.

He could fight well, but didn't

say that he was good at fighting.

Because he acted without co-ordination with the team, they ended up surprised and the offence for delayed.

But it was also thanks to him that they managed to end up 16th. His quick decision of killing all the baby squids with his gun was quite effective.

The bullet serenade eliminated all the baby squids in less than a minute.

Since Luna was prepared to scuffle with them for 15 minutes, it could be said that he played a big role. But of course, she still played the biggest role as she was the one who crushed it's head and killed it off with a 3-star magic.

"..."

Luna held back her impulse to blame someone. But that only increased the unreasonable sense of jealousy and envy she felt towards Julia.

It was incredibly unbiased, blaming someone else for her own incompetence.

She faced forward and glared at Julia's head. If she wouldn't be found out, she wanted to smack the back of her head.

Luna's hands trembled, reaching towards Julia's head.

But instead of taking such extreme action, she lightly touched Julia's shoulder.

"Julia, how was it?"

Her expression was completely different that. how it was a second ago.

"Hm? Ah, it's as you see. 4th place. What a shame. I wanted to beat Babel and Princess Aurora. What about you?"

"I'm... 16th."

"Oh? Wow, you got 16th with 'that' in your team?"

She clearly said that pointing towards Eren making sure that he noticed her.

"We got the black hump octopus. We just had to remove the hump."

"And that's what you did, right?"

Luna didn't say that she messed up while using a light magic spell, instead nodded with a bright smile.

"Yep."

Late at night, after the end of regular classes, I was working out in the training room.

Because of all the things that happened today, I felt like I was dying. But it was something I needed to do, I focused on working out for 2 hours. Thankfully, I was well acquainted with the training equipment, It was only that the weights were heavier. For example, the leg extension machine went from 15 vects to 500 vects.

"Ugh."

After completing my workout, I fumbled back to the dressing room like a zombie and collapsed on the seat.

'Time is nearing'

Maybe due to the exhaustion my mind started to think about the dragon once again.

Each passing day, the threat of the fire dragon neared, I couldn't sleep peacefully knowing that there is a ticking bomb near out barony.

No matter how much I tried to think about the solutions, I couldn't think of any way to stop a dragon except taking help from the Emperor himself.

But as of now, It was only a pipe dream.

Not to mention meeting him, I wouldn't even be allowed anywhere near the Emperor.

'F*ck is there no way? '

The only way to meet the emperor is to have incredible achievement enough to attract his attention or be in a high enough noble position to request an audience.

Both of them was impossible for the current me.

'Arhj! This is giving me a headache!'

As I was ponderonh over what to do, someone entered the training facility.

"The lights are still on? Is there still someone working out? "

A melodious voice filled my ear as I saw a girl entering the training facility.

"Huh? Did I disturb you? "

The girl asked as she notices me. But I was too excited to answer her.

'The princess!!'

An incredible idea hit my mind.
