(A/N: I change my mind. They need 200 points to pass)

The blazing sun shone upon the barren wasteland. The winds were whistling and the leaves were dancing and the grass was gently swaying as the wind blows. It was such a fine day and no clouds could be seen, just a shining sun.

On this fine day, 5 girls could be seen under the shade of a tree. All of them look rather exhausted.

-Koharu POV-

We have gotten lost on our first day but it wasn't as though it was all in vain. We have accumulated quite a lot of points for killing 3 goblins, 1 elite goblin, 1 lone orc, and 5 slimes.

I look at the device called Loki on my left wrist and it displayed [00085 ]points. It was quite a feat actually

We are currently resting taking a cover in a tree while eating the snack that I made.

「Uhm- Which path should we take?」[Fiona]

「Hmn, I suggest that we should take the path of blue, Adarlan. It will be useful to us in the future. I would also like to determine our reaction speed and environment adaptability in case an unexpected situation arose」I replied to Fiona's question

After a while of discussion. We agreed to take the Adarlan. We proceeded in the path of blue where our speed will be tested.

As we proceed in the path of blue. I notice its calmness and tranquility. It also has a mountain that looks pure white in the distance, a tree with white leaves, and a lake that defines the definition of serenity. It is such a strange phenomenon yet at the same time fascinating.

In that peaceful place was an ongoing battle. It can be seen 5 girls were seen fighting a Silver wolf with a height almost like a 5-year-old child and it also displays its strength and agility.

There were 6 of them yet the girls seem to be handling it with ease. The Silver Wolf was a C Rank monster. The girls were known for being strong and although they can easily obliterate the Silver Wolf with their strength individually. Still, they choose to improve their teamwork. They choose to work together and thus resulting in them easily fight the Silver Wolfs.

Their strategy was of course having Fumiko and Koharu as their front fighter while Mayumi was firing arrows at the Silver Wolf that attack each member's blind spot. Akane was also firing a Fire Spell while protecting Fiona. Fiona was also constantly there helping them by enhancing their physical strength to a certain level and helping Akane to replenish her mana. Fumiko was also in charge of protecting the three girls.

I have such a long explanation for the fight but it only lasts for less than 3 minutes. Despite the Silver Wolfs' surprise attack. Koharu instantly reacted and gave the girls an instruction. From there on, the girl's movements, slowly but surely becoming in sync. It's like they are 5 people with one mind. They pay attention to their surroundings and constantly check each member's condition and position.

「Phew」

I can't help but let out a sigh after the battle. Koharu can easily cut the Wolf down yet she refrain from doing so for the sake of their teamwork.

「This wolves is troublesome because of their agility and sharp fangs, haa」[ Fumiko]

Akane then look at the Loki in her left wrist and it shows [00145]

「At least now, we only need 55 points to pass」[Akane]

「I guess」[Fumiko]

「Yeah」

「yup」

「Then, let's keep moving」

I said to the girls and they all nodded in response. After the silver wolf. We have not encountered any strong monsters that I deemed as a threat.

We have been walking for 4 hours now but we have only encountered a lone enemy (4x), other than the silver wolf pack.

As we continue walking our path, the sun continues to go down.

The girls were talking and laughing about random things while on alert mode at the same time.

Minutes later...

They heard a loud boom and bam. No one knows what it was and it made the girls alert as their chattering died down. They were all now very attentive. Listening to any sound that may be the cause of such a loud sound.

But...

There's no one around and just they were going to let their guard down and relax. A huge enemy appears before them. It was at least 7 meters tall with white fur. It was large that's for sure. They look like 4 your old kid in front of such a big creature.

It is like a bipedal ape-creature with large and sharp teeth. White fur covered the portion of its face, chest, forearms, and lower legs. Its skin was blue. It was carrying a big axe, the axe's blade was made of ice but sharp nonetheless.

『I wonder what kind of ice is it since it didn't melt』

Indeed, it is 'like' the mythical creature on earth called Yetee.

"ROAAAARR"

The girls covered their ears as the creature in front of them let out a loud piercing roar.

「Snoaxe...」

I heard Fiona mumbled

『It seems like it is called "Snoaxe" here』

「Prepare yourselves!」

I instructed the girls and they immediately get into their stance.

As the 'Snoaxe' roared. Another 2 Snoaxe appeared behind the first. It has the same feature as the Snoaxe in front of them but with a height difference of 2 meters. If the first that appeared was 7 meters tall. The two back up was at least 9 meters tall. The one from the left was also holding an axe made of ice with a different design. While the one from the right was holding a club. It is 9 inches in radius and about 4 meters long. It is also made of Ice with icicle spikes all over the Ice club except the handle. Their weapons glint dangerously under the sun.

Without another word the fight broke.

Fumiko immediately dash forward and swing her sword at the Snoaxe closest to her.

But...
