Chapitre 73: The Final Entrance Exam [2]

"A beast-infested forest? But we're just kids!"

"I barely managed to finish forming my mana core just yesterday!"

"No… Why didn't I leave with the earlier group?!"

A chorus of murmurs erupted among the students, expressing their confusion at the shocking revelation.

Professor Orina decided to give them a moment to let the information sink in.

'Sigh… as expected, they fell into a panic. Even last year's group wasn't this bad, a few initially panicked, but not all of them. I wonder just how many people can pass this year?'

A certain silver-haired boy watched this play out with a dumbfounded face.

'Lykos… I just got a nice warm bed and a roof above my head, right? So…Why the hell am I being deported off into the wilderness again?'

Lykos honestly didn't know how to respond, so he just tried to change the topic.

'Isn't it a great day outside?'

'It is… I wouldn't want to spend the night outside though.'

Only for the conversation to go right back to where it started.
