บท 21: #21 Survival Test
Everywhere I looked, I could only see the endless sea with the comfortable wind on my face. Why I was in the middle of the sea?
The school had arranged a 2 weeks trip on the extravagant cruise ship. Well, it didn't seem much like a reward to me since participation was a must. This made me think about what is the school exactly thinking...Rewarding us with 2 weeks on the luxurious ship yet we must participate. What kind of joke is that? Is that our reward or punishment? I don't really mind a nice week or two on the sea but what about others?
"WHOOOA!!!! This is amazing!!! There is everything on this ship!" Ike started shouting and I wouldn't be surprised if he awoke the kraken with his annoying shouting.
I take back my words, I guess kids won't mind being anywhere as long as there are luxurious facilities and of course, free of charge.
The ship is definitely really big and luxurious. There is everything one might need, from luxurious restaurants to karaoke and cinema.
According to the schedule handed over to us by the school. We will spend 1 week at the luxurious lodge on the deserted island which already stinks to me. Everything is promised to be luxurious, but why only us 1st-years are here? As for the other week, we will spend it on this boat.
"But I have to say that this scene really clears your mind of worries" I muttered while watching the endless sea with the clear blue sky from the deck.
"This is really romantic scene isn't it?!" Girls from my class were admiring the scene while talking about useless things. Well, at least useless from my point of view.
"Students please assemble on the deck. You will be able to see the island very soon" The announcement came from captain of the ship and immediately after that the deck was overflowing with students from various classes.
It also started a fight for the positions on the deck.
"Class D should just give up their positions. You are defects, you should be glad that you have a human-rights" One student said.
"Huh?! What did you say?!" Sudo immediately fired back.
I couldn't care any less about the war of words and I kept admiring the view while thinking about the happiest moments in my past life which made me even form a genuine smile.
"Hey, defects should go to the back. Class A should have positions at the front" A student from Class A said while he touched my shoulder and tried to shove me away which woke me up from my happy thoughts.
"DON'T-TOUCH-ME" I said coldly without even sparing him a glance but he could tell the situation by the extremely cold aura around my body which made him shiver even though it was summer. I was extremely irritated by how he invaded my personal space and touched me without permission and he even interrupted me in one of my happy moments, not like there were many of them. There was no way I could control myself in such a situation.
"You-!" He tried to say something but he was interrupted by a voice I already heard many times.
"Oh? If it isn't Walker-kun, fufu"
"I never thought that even your class would host a few animals within it, Sakayanagi-san" I answered normally but I couldn't bring myself to smile which clearly showed her that I was really irritated.
"Well, well, I apologize on behalf of my class"
"No need, I was planning to go back to my class anyway if he was a little civilized and asked me first, I might give up my position to him without any problems" I nodded towards Hashimoto and Kamuro who was near Sakayanagi but before I left I could hear Sakayanagi's voice behind me.
"Walker-kun, let's meet up at the restaurant 1 week from now on"
Why not just say that after we will finish our vacation on the island?
"We will disembark shortly, please hand your phones to your homeroom teacher in the meantime" Another announcement came.
Huh? Why would they need our phones if we are on vacation?
When we were disembarking, they were even checking the personal possessions we had with us.
We got off the boat and we were greeted by Class A's homeroom teacher, Tomonari Mashima.
"First, I would like to say that I am happy we have all arrived safely. Unfortunately, one of you won't be able to participate due to a special condition and will remain on the boat"
"Poor guy... even though the boat is extremely luxurious, how can it compare to the beach with all the girls in bikinis?" Ike pitied the mentioned person aloud, thankfully only us, Class D heard him.
Do you still think that this will be normal vacation after seeing this setup? I must say that I am amazed plus that "poor guy" of yours is probably a girl. I noticed that Sakayanagi was wearing her uniform unlike us who had sports clothes.
After a few minutes of silence, Mashima-sensei started talking with a serious face.
"Alright, we will begin the current academic's year first special test"
After his words, there was a silence for a while before everyone started whispering to each other.
"The test begins now and lasts for one week. This test will determine if you can live on the deserted island together as a group. From now on you will be making a decisions how your entire group will live" Mashima-sensei ignored whispers and continued explaining.
"Wait, we won't be staying on the ship?!"
"Correct, you won't be allowed to board a ship without a justified reason. Each class will be given 2 tents, 2 flashlights, and a box of matches, in addition..." Mashima-sensei started to explain rules.
"This is some kind of joke, right?" Ike asked with an idiotic face and started to complain about how it is all without warning.
Do you think that life will warn you before everything?
"Do you think you will be prepared for everything in your life? This is just a light training for you to adapt to the harsh situations" Chabashira-sensei couldn't take any more of Ike's comments
We were given the items necessary for our survival and wristwatches instead of our phones and we were forbidden to take them off.
I guess there is some kind of GPS in them. They can't have a students dying here after all.
"I don't get why you are so unsatisfied. You are free to do whatever you want... be it holding a barbecue, swimming, talking with your friends around the campfire, you can do whatever you want" Mashima-sensei sarcastically said.
We were also given some kind of catalog where we could buy a lot of different things necessary for our survival but those things cost special test S-points and we were given only 300 of them. The remaining S-points after the week pass by will be added to our class points.
When I looked towards the "jungle" on the island I couldn't help but smile coldly.
Playing survival game with the king of wildness, hehe. I have lived in the wildness within the constant danger for years, this is my territory. As for those 2 tents? I couldn't care any less, I can sleep on the branches of trees with one eye open in case of the danger.
This will be funny week, I can even sabotage all other classes at the same time, hehe.
