I really thought your test was just normal as our coach says. That, in turn, challenges us --- where he looks at how strong we are as a player.

"Wait, coach. Wait for us," said my companions --- the others were already pale. There are others who even drank water so they only had about half left.

"Keep going. You will not rest until you have reached the top," he told us before pointing to the top.

"If we reach that tree, then I'll let you all take a break there."

I immediately heard the players' complaints about what he did. "You're very mean to us, coach."

"Hey, look at this."

When I looked back, I was surprised that one of our teammates was holding a grasshopper and he immediately threw it at the others.

"Don't throw that at me, man!" one of them shouted immediately when the grasshopper jumped at him --- now the bug was behind him who seemed to be still attached. Seriously, these lunatics.

"I'm not doing anything to you." I heard their loud laughter as Benedict and I walked. We don't talk to them much so we couldn't really scold them.

If there was anyone here on this mountain, I hope they wouldn't be angry because of the noise of my colleagues.

"Hey, which of you two hid my cell phone? A**h*les, take out my cellphone," I heard one of them complain while they looked at each other and refused.

"None of us took your phone."

"Not me."

"Maybe it's in your bag. Check it again."

"Why do you only accuse us? How dare you."

When I heard my companions shouting, I immediately looked at Benedict. He is no longer wearing a headset so I know he is annoyed with those with us.

Benedict doesn't get along very well with others so he doesn't know the personality of our teammates. Hell, I'm sure that he was forced to come since it's more likely training instead of for fun.

"Do you think they'll shut up?" I was surprised when he asked me suddenly. He was not looking at me but I knew he was still waiting for an answer. I just shrugged at him.

"I'm just letting them be," I told him before I continued speaking.

"There aren't too many people so it's okay for them to make noise."

He then scoffed, knowing that the other members should still have to lower down their voices. "If they get cursed by—"

I immediately punched him in the arm so that he would be silent and not be heard by others. "Hey, don't be like that. Those are our teammates, Benz."

"Their mouths don't seem to stop." He threw a bad look when he saw our teammates once again.

"I'm sure that you hid it!"

"I didn't."

"Can you just stop lying? Don't even—"

They threw complaints at each other and almost interrupted the others here on Scarlet Peaks --- if anyone else is mountaineering today.

But when they started to laugh out loud, I was just surprised when someone shouted from above.

"Hey! Shut up!"

A girl's voice had rung out, making all of my other teammates look at us before looking up. Maybe they were surprised that there are also other people who come here today.
