26 – Screams

“Scatter!”

At Arnes’ cry, the nine people immediately scattered.

He retreated backwards and fired fire magic. Whether the attack worked or not, the important thing was to increase the distance with Gran.

Quang!

The flame magic caused an explosion and dust rose. Gran’s figure temporarily disappeared.

“What are you going to do?”

Aliana asked nonchalantly whether she was calm or interested in the evaluation.

“First of all, let’s consume our stamina first. We are nine Allende! Get ready.”

Allend, who was in the building opposite, aimed his bow through the thick smoke.

They waited for Gran to appear.

Kwaaang!

There was the sound of something breaking in the dust. The dust he raised to get away from Gran rather obstructed his vision.

I couldn’t figure out what I was doing in the dust.

“Jyla, blow some dust.”

As Aliana spoke, the druid Jayla cupped her hands and put them to her mouth.

She took a deep breath and exhaled.

The druids’ wind breath blew the dust.

There was no one there. There was a round hole where Gran was standing.

“Oh, no?”

“Down!”

Quaaang!

The building shook as if it would collapse at any moment.

“Run away!”

Quaaagh!

Gran’s hand broke through the roof and grabbed Jayla’s ankle as she tried to escape.

“Kyaaa!”

She disappeared under the roof of the building with a scream.

As the building shook again, the members of the crew, who had been staring at it for a while, moved quickly.

Arnes’ mind went blank.

You shouldn’t give Gran the distance.

Gran’s power and speed were beyond imagination. She broke through the walls of the building and couldn’t figure out where she would emerge.

It was strange to think that the street could not give it away. That would be the case, and now there were only three people in Groups 1 and 2 who could perform ranged attacks. The remaining five were specialized in close combat.

5 People were busy running away and only 3 people actually fought.

He widened his distance and looked at Aliana and Laysha. Aliana was a knight and Laysha was an assassin.

I wondered if they would be able to hold on to Gran’s ankles.

The best way is to throw away the second group and run away. But that, too, was not a simple matter. Currently, Gran was rushing toward the trillion won.

If Gran’s attack was directed at Team 2, he planned to run away immediately. Until then, all he had to do was keep his distance and annoy Gran.

“Allend!”

Quaak!

“Quaaagh!”

Alend, who was on the right a moment ago, screamed and fell down the building.

Arnes’ head turned to the right.

There was a huge priest, Gran.

“Heh heh, I’ll finish it soon.”

Gran’s huge fist flew towards his side.

Puuu!

Arnes reacted quickly in the split second. He lowered his right elbow to protect his side.

However, the shock and pain were transmitted as they were.

Arnes thought that if he did something wrong, he might die before being summoned.

His body levitated and landed on the roof of the opposite building.

“Keuuugh… !”

Arnes complained of his pain and opened his eyes. The first person I saw was Kiara, the leader of Team 2.

“Key, Kiara.”

Her blue eyes stared coldly at Arnes. Soon Kiara turned her body and went away.

“That b*tch traitor….”

Arnes struggled to get up. Seeing Gran’s figure, his jaw widened.

When Gran, who was in the building opposite, jumped, he flew high into the sky. The world of Arnes, who was watching while giving up everything, turned dark.

“Sleep!”

Quaaang!

Fragments of the broken roof flew in all directions.

Just like that, Arnes disappeared.

The other members of the crew who watched the scene from a distance even thought that Arnes might have been shattered before being summoned.

Aliana, who was running away from Gran, suddenly stopped.

“The Princess?”

Assassin Laysha also stopped.

“I can’t even run away anyway. Go and fight yourself first.”

“Me, me?”

Ley Sha swallowed her saliva.

“Yes.”

The princess’ answer was concise.

Leysha drew two daggers from her belt. She lowered her mask and took a deep breath.

She wanted to run away right now, but even then it didn’t mean much.

I thought it would be a better choice to not incur hatred by following the princess’s orders.

Still, I was scared.

I was afraid of Gran’s fist.

‘If you can’t escape anyway….’

It is a fight with oneself.

Why did you enter the academy?

In order to become stronger than anyone else, I tried to become the best assassin in the empire.

Gran was like an ordeal for her.

If you just run away blinded by fear, you will never grow.

‘I have to endure it.’

To enter the academy, he endured pain and killed his desires.

In order to grow into tomorrow’s me, today’s ‘me’ must die. You have to kill yourself who is trembling in fear.

Leysha drew in her breath slowly and focused on her senses. She must feel the hot energy radiating from her heart with her whole body.

The mind is firm and sharp, the body flexible.

Ley Sha focused on Gran’s movements, her eyes flashing. He charged mercilessly like a giant monster.

Huge and heavy body, uncontrollable speed.

Laysha swayed her body from side to side, making her movements unpredictable.

The direction she evaded was to the right.

There was no particular reason. As Gran was right-handed, she only tried to dodge with his left side.

Dodge his charge and aim for his back.

Laysha put her foot first to her left and her upper body moved as well. She then spurred her foot on her step and slammed her body to her right.

“This is a good painting.”

‘… Huh?’

Quaak!

Resiya, who was throwing herself to the right, was caught by Gran.

Laysha, who was caught by the collar, laughed dejectedly.

“It will be a little sore.”

When Laysha saw her expressionless face, she screamed.

“Kyaaa!”

Puuu!

Today’s Laysha is dead.

The princess looked at Laysha caught in Gran’s hand with an expressionless face. Reisha’s body, hit by her Gran, was limp. After a while, her Leisha body faded and disappeared.

Gran looked at Aliana and smiled gently.

“The last of the first group is the princess. I will finish it soon.”

“You…. Are you going to hit me too?”

Aliana’s eyes sharpened. When she said it coldly, Gran’s eyes widened in surprise as well.

“Heh heh….”

Gran smiled awkwardly.

“I think evaluation is everything….”

Quaaang!

Alyana widened her eyes in surprise.

I was already out of the arena.

***

The evaluation ended with two sets of screams.

The evaluators and Florina looked at each other almost completely out of their minds.

“Well, what did we see?”

“Uh…. Did you say your job was a priest?”

“Take care of the children first….”

All the students at the stadium were summoned. The evaluation was over and the children who took the test gathered in one place. However, not all were gathered.

“Have you all gathered?”

“Teacher, I can’t see Sennen.”

“I can’t see Ron either.”

“The kids who are not here are going to get a simple treatment, so you guys should pass on your scores. Alright, let’s announce the score.”

Florina told the score in turn, starting with group 1.

Groups 1 and 2, which attacked Gran together, scored -8 points. Group 4 who fought Gran was also -8 points. Group 7, which caught all of Group 5 except for Gran, scored -4 points.

And Group 5 is said to have scored the highest score in Academy history with 36 points.

“What…. Why minus 8 points? It must have been in the other Jodos besides Gran?”

When Arnes first cast his magic on Gran, he also confirmed that there were other groups inside the building.

He thought that since no one came out but him, he must have been eliminated along with the magic.

Gran was smiling as usual.

“Everyone give Gran a round of applause. That you, your movements are really unique.”

Florina smiled, praising Gran with her awkward face.

“How come you look different than usual.”

Florina’s expression hardened from her smile, but luckily no one noticed her.

The children clapped their hands.

“Sorry, Gran. We are no help.”

Nathan smiled bitterly.

“It’s a relief to be in the same group as Gran….”

“That’s what I mean. I get goosebumps thinking that it will fit in that hand.”

“Hmm…. Did you say you are comfortable being in the same group as me? You should start working out with me from today.”

“Exercise? I like it. It’s gonna be fun.”

Nason happily agreed, and Leah and Cleodes also looked forward to working out with Gran.

“You, don’t you?”

A person who is not happy.

Echina’s eyes shook like crazy.

***

“I heard a pop in her lap!”

Nathan grabbed him by the legs and lay down.

“I haven’t heard of that. Next, it’s Lee’s turn. Heh heh, Miss Lee. You have to come to your senses.”

“Cow, I feel really bad.”

“It’s okay. Originally, you can do it while regurgitating your stomach on the first day. Come here.”

On the day the group battle evaluation ended, the Grand Gym was full of screams.
