Chapter 57: labyrinth Dungeon [ 4 ]

"I killed a Total of 25 Monsters."

"I killed a total of 34 monsters."

"And I killed a total of 44 monsters, look like I'm ahead of you."

Sunny, Isabella and Evelyn tell all of their kill counts.

Sunny has the lowest kill count between Isabella and Evelyn. Isabella is in second place and Evelyn is ahead of all of us, killing a total of 44 monsters independently.

And I, your brother have the lowest kill count among all of us.

"Lucas tell us about your kill count," Sunny asked me if I told him I knew he was going to make fun of me.

But even if I don't want to tell them, I have to. This is supposed to be an assignment given to us, so no matter what I have to tell them.

"20," I said to him, there was shock on his face letter that shock turned into amusement.

Oh, I know this is going to happen.

"Tsk, Tsk. Lucas, you should train more. What will you do if you face a strong enemy?"

He said as he pretended to be in serious mode, like a a model student.

This fucker.

I took a deep breath, trying to regain my reasoning before I killed him.

"Yeah, yeah, I will do that."

"I think we should get going now," Evelyn said to us, clearly not liking the benter going on.

"She is right, if we waste any more time our ranking will be affected." Isabella also said siding with Evelyn on this matter.

After that, we take two minutes of rest and continue in the Lybraith dungeon. We have to reach the end of the dungeon if we want to complete it.

After walking for around 10 minutes, We managed to reach the end of the labyrinth. There, we only saw 8 people. In other words, we scored third place.

"Isabella ?"

"Hey, Adrian and Aric."

Aric, who was sitting on a rock acting needlessly cool, called Isabella. Stood beside him was Adrian, clearly taking the first place.

She walked towards them. How she treated both Adrian and Aric was different from how she treated me.

"Over here."

Miss Lillian, who was waiting at the end of the dungeon, read out our time, and kill count.

"Team 7. 50 minutes 10 seconds. Total Kill Count 123 Monster. Taking Third place."

At the same time, Sunny Cheers for me.

"Whoo. It's all thanks to you. You have great eyes~"

For now, I sat on the ground with them. Isabella had already left to meet Adrian and Aric

I also relaxed. As I sit on the ground.

I looked to my right side and a frown appeared on my face.

"Are you not going to join them?" I asked Evelyn, she was still here with me.

"Why would I join them? They also saw me coming and did call me. And besides, do you have any problems with me being here?"

"Come down will you, I just asked a normal question. No need to be too worked up."

"Hmph."

She just turned her head in a different direction.

Oh, well. Now what is her problem?

Anyway, there is still time for others to each here.

I should relax in meanwhile.

***

In different sections of Lybraith's dungeon. Emma is with her team hunting the monster with her team.

But currently, some thoughts are going on in her head.

Emma was giving her all to hunt monsters so that she may not leave behind the others.

She wanted to surpass Aric in killing a number of monsters. She has been training fiercely from the time she lost and was humiliated.

She wanted to erase that smug smile from Eric's face. She wants to erase the shame she has suffered him. By training only she can make him pay.

She doesn't know about others but till now she has killed 49 monsters.

This terrain was easier for hiding to look for prey but it was also difficult to kill the prey in the wilderness as they tend to cover their tracks.

Pulling the arrow from the monster she was thinking about several monsters Adrian would have hunted.

'I have to give my all to not lag behind others.'

She moved forward loading the arrows.

She was moving carefully taking each step lightly.

After Five minutes all of the nearby F-rank monsters had been slain.

"whoosh it's finally done, Emma." A girl who just had killed the last F-rank monster with her rapier said.

Emma turns to the girl who just said.

"You are right Elara, we are also at the end of the dungeon."

Indeed the girl's name is Elara, and the future member of Adrian's party.

Her rank in Nova Academy is 10.

She is strikingly beautiful, with Silvery-white hair, that framed her face and captivatingice-blue eyes. She has an air of elegance evident, making her look like a Nobel. her charm was hard to ignore.

The rapier in Elara's hand is a slender silver rapier with a blade that gleamed like ice.

The hilt's delicate design mirrored Elara's elegant demeanour, while the blade's icy sheen captured her mastery of ice magic.

"I think we should now directly head to the end of the dungeon, if we waste more time our ranking will further drop," Elara said to Emma after taking out her Repier from the monster.

"You are right, we are already at the end of the dungeon, so we should hurry back."

"Hey, you two let's go. We don't have any more time." Emma shouted at two students who were some distance away from them.

"Coming." shouted the male student as he and the female student hurried up to them.

After they reach them.

"Let's hurry up," she said and Eleara and Emma started to run toward the end of the dungeon.

After a full five minutes of spirit, they reach their.

At the end of the dungeon stood Miss Lillian.

As soon as Emma's team reached Miss Lillian announced the result.

"Team 3. 56 minutes 39 seconds. Total Kill Count 109 Monster. Taking Fourth place."

"Rest here until the other students come."

Miss Lillian said that Emma and others walked past her.

Fourth place. When Emma heard her team position she was confused for a moment.

She knows that Adrian And Aric must have taken First and second place respectively.

Then who else had taken the third place?

She looked at her surroundings, there were a total of 12 people beside her team

She looked at them and her eyes settled on Evelyn and Isabella.

Ah, I see, Isabella must have gained the third rank.

But how this fast?
