Chapter 51 Unexpected Arrival



The Wayvern stopped in its tracks when the attack was launched at it.

"Hey Fiona! Are you okay?" The figure in the distance came into sight.

The figure that suddenly appeared was Celestia!

"Celestia!!" Fiona was surprised to see her.

Unexpectedly while she was searching for another beast to hunt. She heard a deafening roar in the distance. She was curious to see what it was, as she had also heard the commotion of a battle.

She also speculated that it might be Fiona, the other students from A class, or students from B class who had entered, as the whole Twilight was currently occupied by the academy during this exhibition, so there should be no other people in the area.

Even if there were, it should be normal hunters, but they should be in the outer area patrolling the surroundings.

Because she was not a normal person, her hearing is quite outstanding. Celestia currently has her hearing and eyesight enhanced by mana while searching the area.

She rushed over and saw Fiona being attacked by a beast. She did not even care what tier the beast was. She only had her focus on her friend Fiona, who had suffered fatal injuries in the attack.

So she directly attacked the beast and stopped it in its tracks. Although it did not suffer any damage, it gave her enough time to grab Fiona and run away.

The smoke caused by Celestia's attack cleared out. The Wayvern looked around, looking confused about what just happened, and to its surprise, it could not see or sense Fiona and Celestia.

On the other hand, Celestia activated an artifact that was able to conceal both their aura and mana. So it should be almost impossible for the Wayvern to be able to detect them now.

After activating the artifact, Celestia grabbed Fiona, and they ran as fast as they could, both enchancing their bodies with mana and aura to their maximum limits.

While they were running, Celestia looked at Fiona and her injuries. She took out a couple regeneration potions and handed them to her.

"Thanks," Fiona said while gulping down the potions.

"Are you okay?! What happen?" Celestia asked with a hint of worry in her tone.

"I do not know, that beast suddenly attacked me out of nowhere, it was too late when I noticed its attack, and I ended up getting hit."

"Huh? What type of beast is it? I was not able to get a good look at it. I just attacked it to stop it in its tracks so I could save you."

"It is a two tiered wyvern."

"What?! Good thing I acted fast and used an artifact right away to escape, otherwise I wouldn't know what would have happened to you."

"Yes, I really have you to thank for that, but isn't that beast supposed to be in the center area? What is it doing here?" Fiona was really confused about its sudden appearance in the inner area. "Should we retreat for now, Celestia? and inform the professors."

She asked Celestia, as she was the most suitable person to assess the situation. In fact, she was one of the people that she knew who would be able to stay calm even if the entire world collapsed.

As Fiona was waiting for her response, Celestia was in deep thought, trying to think of how they should handle the current situation.

Finally, she spoke and said, "Hmmm… I don't think it is necessary, we just need to stay cautious and avoid that Wayvern for the time being. It is not really that strange for beasts to wander around and get out of their usual area."

Thinking about it, Fiona nodded in agreement with her words. "Ok, anyway, let's stop talking about what happened earlier, Let me ask you, how many beasts have you hunted so far, hmm?" She said it in a sarcastic tone, thinking that she might be ahead of Celestia so far.

"Actually, I have only hunted two so far. What about you?" Celestia responded with a mysterious smile on her face.

"Hehe, I guess I am leagues ahead of you so far, but I'm surprised you have only gotten two. What have you been doing? Have you been fooling around?" She was surprised because Celestia's strength was no lower than hers.

Then she saw her mysterious smile and realized that something was wrong. "Don't tell me, those two beasts you hunted are Tier three?!"

Celestia giggled, feeling satisfied with the reaction she got from her, "That is right, good job guessing it."

"What! How? You shouldn't be able to kill a Tier three yet, right? Let alone two? Are you lying?" Fiona responded feeling suspicious.

"Hehe, I am for real. Anyway, I just got lucky, I found a heavily injured Ursavus, so I took the chance to kill it. That Ursavus also killed a Black Serpent and it was carrying it. It probably got injured from fighting that Black Serpent."

"So lucky? And just like that, you were able to get Two tier beast. That is quite unfair."

"Hey, luck is also part of strength, you can't blame me for having such good luck."

"…" Fiona could really argue with that. "You should be ahead of everyone right now then, I have to step it up a bit."

"Hmm, good luck with that, but there are also a bunch of students from B class in groups who also came to the inner area, so we can't really be sure if we are ahead, you know? There is also Goren, Chloe, and Zoh."

"Ah right, I almost forgot about those guys."

The competition for the academy's first year ranking is intense, because the benefits that come with the rank are quite generous.

After some small talk, Fiona and Celestia went their separate ways again to find more beasts to hunt. They also avoided going in the direction where the Wayvern was.

Meanwhile, in another area of the forest, screams can be heard.

"Ahhh, What the f*ck is going on! Run!! Hurry up and go inform the professors!"
