Bab 496: A Fighting Test

"So? Who wants to go first?"

Dylan, the wielder of the 5 Star Talent [Hero] showed out of nowhere as our Fighting Exam Instructor. Probably that shady Director asked him to test us with his overwhelming talent and strength.

Maybe to see if we are all "real heroes" or something, which is rather frustrating. Nonetheless, it is not as if I have no intention of fighting, nor that I am afraid.

In fact… I am rather pumped up.

"I'll go first."

I stepped forward fearlessly, everyone else felt slightly surprised.

"W-Wait, Blake, are you seriously going to fight this monster?!" Chris asked.

"What if something bad happens!?" Eric wondered.

"Blake, don't be reckless again…" Elizabeth sighed.

"Hey, you're doubting Blake too much out of the blue! It has been years now and you're still thinking he's just doing something reckless?" Erika wondered, reprimanding everyone else. "I'll trust him."
