Malakai's Point of View

Hindi ko alam kung ano ang mga kakayahan nina Prince Zach at Princess Juliet dahil ito ang unang beses na nakita ko sila. Sa unang parte kasi ng entrance examination ay hindi kasama ang dalawa dahil automatic na pasado na sila roon.

The Kings and Queens of the five kingdoms had a brief meeting after I got off the stage earlier.

They made a barrier around themselves so no one's gonna hear a thing. Maybe it's about me.

Nah. Obviously, it's about me.

After a few minutes, the Headmaster continued conducting the entrance exam.

"For the second and last part of our entrance examination, those who passed the first part are going to the Agora. It's a place inhabited by different kinds of wild beasts. We want you to kill wild beasts as many as you can for two hours. Everytime you kill a beast, you'll get a point. This is not a simulation. Every creatures lurking there are real. We will provide potions that can bring you back to the arena instantly. When you can't fight anymore or the wild beast is too much for you and you can't escape, you can drink your potion and you will immediately return here. Everyone who gets 5000 points and above will pass. Smallest beasts are 5 points each. Largest and deadliest beasts are about 500 to 1000 points each. Fight those you think you can handle. You can also cooperate with your fellow mages and hunt in groups. But whoever made the last attack to the beast will get the point. After exactly two hours ay babalik kayong lahat sa arena. Do you all understand?" Most of us nodded in response. "Alright. Good luck, mages!"

Now, this is more exciting! Tama nga si mama na hindi ako mahihirapan sa exam na to. I've been fighting and killing monsters, wild beasts, and demons all my life. This is just a walk in the park for me.

I'm sorry, High Queen Diana, I need to save my mana as much as I can.

The professors of the academy raised their hands upang magbukas ng malaking portal para sabay-sabay kaming makapasok.

Pumwesto sa harapan sina Prince Zach and Princess Juliet.

Nang makapasok kami sa portal, kapansin-pansin na agad ang nakakatakot na paligid.

So, this is Agora. First time kong makapunta rito. Hindi maikakailang maraming naninirahang wild beasts sa lugar na ito.

Walang nagtatangkang lumapit sa akin.

Hay... sa lagay na ito hindi ko alam kung makakahanap pa ako ng kaibigan.

Saka ko na lang poproblemahin iyon. Kailangan ko pang maipasa ito!

Agad na nagkalat ang mages at pumasok sa madilim na gubat. Nakita ko namang magkasamang pumasok si Prince Zach and Princess Juliet sa gitnang bahagi. Sa kaliwa naman ang magkakaibigang Silver Class mages.

I guess sa kanan nlang ako dadaan. I used my mana detection and enhanced speed at pumasok na rin sa gubat.

Ang mga malalaking beasts lamang ang kakalabanin ko. Para na rin hindi na mapilitang kumalaban ang iba ng large and deadly beasts para lang makapasa. Hindi naman ako selfish. Kahit pa wala ako kakilala sa mga kapwa ko examinee, as much as possible sana ay marami kaming makapasa.

Nararamdaman ko ang tatlong malalakas na wild beasts hindi kalayuan sa akin. Agad akong tumakbo papunta roon.

Nadatnan ko ang hindi lang isa kung hindi tatlong giant orcs na natutulog.

Giant orcs!

Sampung beses na mas malaki sila kumpara sa akin.

"Bakit naman ganito pa ang una kong makakalaban? Argh! Ang pinakaayaw ko pa naman sa kanila ay ang kanilang mabahong hininga. Huhu."
