Having to leave the casino, I checked on the sky. The sun was beginning to set. How long was I in there for? It didn't seem like I was in for a long time, and time had passed.
I should go to a restaurant with the money I had earned. The man who was in the casino still followed me. What a pain in the ass. Should I get rid of him? If I did, I needed to find a way that made it seem like I had nothing to do with it.
,m Maybe I should go eat first. At first, I thought that I should enter a fancy restaurant, but in the end, it seemed like it would be a pain to be in.
Going into an alley, there seemed like no one was around. The man who followed me was closing in. This was an excellent chance for me to get him off of me.
Getting closer, he then called out to me. "Miss! I saw you looking around. Are you new to this place?" As he kept talking, I used my mana on my fist and punched him in the face.
The stalker had no way of defending my attack, so he flew backward, getting hit on the face, checking out on him. It seems like he was still alive but knocked out. I wasn't going to see him ever again, so I left.
Leaving the upper area, I returned to this city's middle parts. More people were hustling, and the atmosphere here was better. There was a pub on my way back. The place is entirely made of all wood. The place would be burned down quickly if fire so happens to appear.
After finishing my food, I went to a hotel and checked in for the night. The room here was much more excellent than the one where I slept previously. The bed quality was much higher, and the room was less stuffy. With nothing to do, I slept in quickly.
The next day appeared, and I felt great. This bed did wonders for me, considering how I had lived in the past week. I left my room and went to the hotel employee. Giving him my keys to the room, I left the hotel.
There was still some time before we left this city, but I had enough traveling and wanted to take a break. I still had to go back to the lower area of the city. Checking the time, it was 8 AM. I had 10 hours to do what I wanted.
Exiting the building, I went out to buy some food. I wasn't sure what to buy, so I just bought the first thing I saw. Getting a lamb chop, I took a bite out of it. Not gonna lie. It was pretty mid.
Should I wait at the school's examination site? My groupmates might be waiting for me, and I could use this chance to meet my old acquaintances.
Having to decide on my plan, I went out of the middle area of the city, and leaving was much easier than entering this place.
From the exit point of the middle area, it took me thirty minutes to go to the school examination site. Entering in, I could see students doing their things leisurely. No one in the right mind would return to the forest, seeing that today was the last day. If they were late, getting back to school would be a pain in the ass.
Searching around, I couldn't find anyone in my group. It was 11 AM, 7 hours to go. Olivia and Serena weren't here, so I didn't have anyone with that I could freely talk.
After a while, I found a person that I was friends with. "Tess, it's been a while!" Seeing that little fairy, I went over and talked to her.
She was with a group of three students, and none of her team had been harmed.
"Charlie! It's been a while. How are you doing." She asked, glad that she could see me.
"I'm doing fine. My name is Charlie Solaris. It's nice to meet you." I looked at Tess's group and introduced myself.
The three seemed too nervous to introduce themselves, so I waited and didn't try to pressure them into doing so.
"Don't worry, girls. Charlie may seem scary from the rumors, but she is a nice person! I guarantee it!" Tess tried to make it easier for them to talk to me.
One of the girls dared to tell them about themselves. "I'm Jamie from class E." She mustered all her courage to do so.
"It's nice to meet you, Jamie." I greeted her, making her feel welcome. Jamie gave me a nervous smile, seeing that I greeted her.
Seeing that Jamie dared to talk to me, the other two began to establish a talk with me. Their names are Fiona and Flora. Jamie is a ginger with small short hair and is pretty short.
Fiona had purple hair tied in a ponytail and was relatively as tall as me. While Flora had long blue hair and was in the middle between Jamie and Fiona.
"Tess, how well do you think your group did on the test?" Seeing how they were not harmed, they probably stayed in town for a while, or they had found a way to secure kills without any danger.
"I don't know how well I compared to the others, but I bet our group is fairly high in the ranks." For her small stature, she looked pretty cute posing with both of her arms on her hips.
Her group members all looked proud, seeing how I asked such a question. I could see that all of them were excited to see how well they did in this exam.
"Charlie, you seem like you would do well in an exam like this." She was also interested in how well I did. I thought I did pretty well seeing the artifacts that were sold for a high price.
"I did pretty well, but we would have to see our results to see how we did." There wasn't any way to confirm how we did.
"Now that I think of it, where are your group members Charlie?"
