Chapter 126 – Episode 126. Survival Test (19)
In this worldview, elves are not beautiful beings.
A type of monster, they are crazy people who enjoy hunting humans.
I have intelligence, but I can’t communicate because I speak a different language.
Of course, that high elf is being controlled by magic, so even if it works, you can’t talk to it.
The High Elf is a device created by the academy to deal with cadets who hide and do nothing until the last day.
If you properly caught monsters and found treasures during the week of the survival test, you can easily get about 200 points.
The High Elf’s test policy is to not fight and not to let the cadets who hide and run away live until the end.
Of course, the fact that he was alive until the last day alone gets a lot of points. It’s not easy to hide and survive.
Anyway, in the original work, it was a development that only dealt with a few idiots and stuck with the main character.
But now a lot has changed.
“What the fuck!”
“Oops!”
Kim Young-han’s team approaching me was knocked down by the high elves’ arrows, which could target the entire island.
Rather, it was a failure to form a team of 80 people.
Having too many people isn’t necessarily a good thing.
If those people competed with each other to steal points and only 20 people remained, the elves wouldn’t have targeted them first.
Only those who were really hiding and sucking honey must have been targeted and eliminated.
But too many cadets survived.
The point supply is fixed, but as the number of people increases, it is inevitable that it will be divided accordingly.
Of course, it’s not Kim Young-han’s fault. Because predicting this is nonsense.
In fact, there were hints.
The message that came out on the 6th day.
[All cadets’ names and locations are displayed on the minimap in real time. Please be careful of the cadets who just ran away to survive.]
This is the hint for the appearance of the high elves.
I don’t know if it was put in there for you to understand. I also found out about it after reading the explanation on the internet.
I turned on the points ranking, hoping I wouldn’t have any cadets die in accidents.
———————–
The current point ranking within the island.
1. Hoyeon Lee. 1210p
2. Young-Han Kim. 452p
3. Ellis. 434p
4. Lucy. 210p

There were only 5 cadets on the island who scored over 200 points.
That means that.
“Is it honey?”
It means that even if you stay still, it will take care of everything.
It can be this easy.
I evaded Team Young-Han Kim, who was confused by the arrows, and looked at the map to find the coordinates of the twins, Alice and Rumi.
I’m going to share points with Rumi.

Academy’s conference room.
The professors were concentrating on the last day of the survival exam.
“…Shouldn’t this be changed?”
A professor cautiously brought out his words in a test situation where one or two cadets were teleported every time the high elf shot a bow.
“The figure of 200 points we calculated in the beginning has changed too much now. If we keep going like this, all but 5 will be eliminated.”
“What does that matter? Being eliminated doesn’t mean you’re disqualified, it’s relative evaluation. It’s just that the order changes anyway.”
“That’s true… But if you suddenly get knocked out on the last day due to a point limit, it could be a problem in terms of fairness.”
Another professor sighed.
Fairness. New professors always say things like that.
It is because he has not yet adapted to the Victoria Academy.
“Fairness? Since when have we been arguing about that… You know. Academy policy. Developing his ability to deal with situations.”
Ability to deal with situations.
It helps students learn the characteristics of a job in which a lot of out of the blue and unexpected things happen.
Victoria Academy, as an educational institution, emphasized the ability to deal with situations.
“But fairness…”
“If you’re going to talk about fairness, there’s not just one or two things to complain about. It’s true that wizards have an advantage in survival. They can maintain minimal cleanliness with clean magic right away, and there was also a cadet who made a bed with magic. Roasted meat with fire There were also cadets. Don’t you point out these things?”
“No, it can’t be helped that a wizard uses magic. I’m not saying that. I think we should have prevented Cadet Lee Ho-yeon from taking food in the first place.”
“Even in last year’s special exam, there was a student who brought an inside map of the academy in preparation for the exam to be held at the academy. This year’s first year students heard about it and brought it with them. I think it’s a similar logic. Preparing for the cadet’s freedom Go, we just announced that we have a special exam and that’s it.”
“… Yes.”
There were frequent debates about fairness among professors, but in the end, the Victoria Academy’s policy could not be defeated.
It is the cadet’s freedom to decide what to prepare for.
The academy only sees your ability to deal with situations.
It doesn’t matter whether the situation is favorable or unfavorable.
It is also a skill to create favorable situations.
In fact, Kim Young-han is well-received for his ability to coax cadets into joining the team and turn the situation to their advantage.
“Don’t think about it and watch it so that no human accident occurs.”
The elderly professor stared at the monitor and sighed.
Even if it feels unreasonable right now, all the professors from the academy knew that such experiences would become a solid foundation if they were accumulated through repeated tests.
“A-13 drone cadet looks dangerous. I think we’ll have to force teleport him.”
“Don’t ask, force teleport. And monitor Lee Ho-yeon and Kim Young-han.”
The professors focused their attention on the monitors so as not to miss the final exam.
*
“Whew. Thank goodness. Rumi. Scan quickly.”
“Yeah. Thank you.”
When the cadets below 200 points were said to be dangerous, he tried to share the points urgently, but Lucy’s points were also 210 points.
Even when I asked Alice to share it, the sharing function itself was blocked.
As it was the last day, it was the academy’s trick that kept them alive by sharing and not eliminating each other.
Fortunately, Rumi’s points were just 20 points short, so she was able to get them by dealing with all the monsters she found along the way.
Originally, Lee Ho-yeon intended to share the points, but she didn’t know because she didn’t have a chance to share points with anyone on the 7th day in the game.
In addition, when Nam Da-eun appeared, the plan was twisted and the time was slightly shifted.
“He’s coming this way. He must have escaped the confusion.”
“Phew, I’m glad.”
“Everything, I’m glad.”
Lucy and Rumi put their hands on their chests and let out a sigh of relief.
Looking at the scene, Alice thought.
These twins are amazing every time I see them.
Only the hair color is different, blue and black, but they look the same and they do cute things. I want to bite them…
“Kuhm.”
What are you thinking about your brother?
As she saw Lee Ho-yeon approaching at high speed, Ellis thought this was an opportunity.
This is the last chance to ask the opinions of these two without Lee Ho-yeon.
“What do you guys think of Lee Ho-yeon?”
“Go, suddenly? He’s such a good kid.”
“I-I also… I think you’re a very nice person.”
Lucy and Rumi gave a good answer even though they tilted their heads at the sudden question.
“Don’t you think you’re hiding something?”
“…Well?”
“That, that… Is that so?”
They both seem to have something…
Ellis couldn’t do anything about her stuffy heart.
Should I really do a background check?
“Guys!”
A man’s voice from afar.
It was Lee Ho-yeon’s familiar voice.
It was quite a distance, but it seems that we have already arrived.
Alice managed her expression so as not to be seen.
*
‘Why do these guys look like this?’
They didn’t talk to each other, but there was something awkward going on.
I checked the three status windows.
★ Heroine Status Window
[Lucy]
– [ Likeability: 88 ]
– [ Sex drive : 40 ]
– [ Appetite : 60 ]
– [ Fatigue : 55 ]
Current Status: A good guy… Obviously.
★ Heroine Status Window
[Rumi]
– [ Likeability: 92 ] (+0.3)
– [ Sex drive : 63 ]
– [ Appetite: 25 ]
– [ Fatigue : 39 ]
Current status: Secret friends are tough.
★ Heroine Status Window
[Ellis]
– [ Likeability: 42 ]
– [ Sex drive : 38 ]
– [ Appetite: 25 ]
– [ Fatigue : 45 ]
Current status: I don’t want to learn stealth skills…
Seeing the unpredictable thoughts made me even more confused.
No You don’t have to worry about that right now.
“Rumi, where did you get the points?”
Looking at the point ranking, Rumi’s points had already reached 200 points. She’s been running hard to share.
“Ah, let’s catch monsters together.”
“Really? That’s good.”
Well, if you got the points, the process doesn’t matter that much.
“Let’s go right now.”
“Where?”
“Somewhere, I have to go catch the elf.”
“… Elves? Why?”
“Once we’ve dealt with all those cannon fodder, we’re next.”
She said that she prioritizes cadets with 200 points or less, but she doesn’t say she doesn’t aim for those above.
It doesn’t make sense to withstand that long-range arrow all day 7.
In the original work, the main character happens to be located near the center of the island and manages it somehow. So, even for the sake of the hidden peace, it has to be processed according to the original.
Originally, it was my plan to handle it alone. However, while fighting Nam Da-eun, he was running out of mana.
He ran and filled up his mana as much as possible, but he didn’t want to venture out.
Even if we catch it together, I can take care of the hidden piece by myself.
All I have to do is prepare a hidden piece to catch the high elves. Alice and Lucy will take care of it.
“Okay.”
“Okay. Let’s go quickly.”
If you convince Alice, Lucy and Rumi are like bonuses that follow.
We ran towards the center of the island.
The arrows didn’t care about us as they were hunting the 80-member Kim Young-han team.
Looking at the point rankings, there are only about 30 left. You have to run fast before the cannonballs run out.
A large tree located in the center of the island.
Above them, the high elves were shooting arrows.
I’ve prepared the magic. ‘Illumination’ with all its might It was a magic that sparked simple sparks, but it worked well because it was simple.
The target is that tree.
To burn the world tree.
Fire-!
A magic circle was drawn at high speed in my hand, and even the trees and the elves standing on it were set on fire.
-Kyaaaaagh!
The high elf lost his bow and grabbed his head and started burning.
‘What.’
Did you bring these guys for nothing?
I guess I miscalculated my firepower.
