Chapter 95 A Field Test (Part III)

"You group of four, why don't you show us what you're made of." Our peacock teacher had picked the four girls that tried to bully Olivia.

I was surprised that the four of them decided to be in a group. I know they are friends, but I don't think they would overcome a third-rank monster considering their strength. It wasn't like I looked down on them, but they were pretty weak compared to most students.

Now that I think about it were they siblings? They all came from the same breed but don't have similar appearances. They were some kind of dog breed, but that was all I could see from them.

With the four of them picked, they went to the middle of the field. "How do you think they will do?" Sonya, who was still beside me, asked Olivia and my opinions.

Olivia, who wasn't sure about the results, didn't reply, and she probably didn't want to talk about them right now.

"They would definitely lose," I said out of spite. I knew they would lose, but I wanted to be crushed by the monster they would fight.

"How are you so sure?" What with her and these questions.

"They look pretty incompetent." That was all I needed to say to her.

"Now that you said that, they kind of do." Sonya lightly said, trying to lighten the mood. Olivia, who was beside her, also joined in and smiled.

The battle has just started, and it seems like they will fight a snake monster. It seemed as strong as the tiger that we fought. It had black scales with grayish stripes coming from it.

The four dogs were a bit scared when they saw it face to face. The snake they would be fighting might be a bit tougher now that I look at it more closely.

With the snake slithering toward the four dogs, the four sent a spiked metal ball. The four had the same magic, meaning they were probably related.

Their moves were hitting the snake, but their firepower wasn't enough to pierce the monster's scale making the snake slither toward them without batting an eye on their attack.

Honestly, it was looking pretty rough for them. All the dogs could do was run and hope the snake wouldn't kill them.

"Stop!" The teacher shouted, stopping the fight. Ms. Colorful thought the battle was pointless, seeing that all they were doing was running.

It was also my first time seeing the peacock so angry. Was our teacher ashamed of the students that she had taught here? I would probably be ashamed if that had happened to me.

The group of dogs had returned to their corner, ashamed of their display. My hatred towards them turned into pity. Who am I kidding? They tried to bully Olivia. I didn't need to look at them anymore since their battle was over.

"I thought you were kidding when you said they looked incompetent," Sonya said, disappointed by the skill that they displayed.

With that, Sonya then looked around the field. "It was fun talking to you, but I better get back to my group. Later," The elf had left to go with her group. She should've used the chance to communicate with her group instead of talking to us.

"Olivia, didn't she seem different from how she was before?" It was weird how she talked to us like that when we saw how she was yesterday. Sonya was competitive, but she wasn't like that when talking to us.

"Really? I hadn't paid attention to her before, so I couldn't tell." I guess it really didn't matter at the end of the day. We weren't close. I don't even know why I am being so nosey about it.

Ms. Colorful, disappointed by the second battle, had called forth the next group. Eight groups were left, and the next chosen was Sonya's group.

In her group, there was an elf like her. They are from the same school, but I haven't remembered her name, but her magic was related to the weather. It may sound impressive if only she could show more of it.

With her were two fairies. I had heard that the relationship between elves and fairies was extremely close. In Star State, Humans, Elves, and Fairies were primarily inhabitants of the country. While humans are close to them, elves' and fairies' relations are much closer.

The monster that they were going to fight was a human-sized monkey. It was weaker than the other two that were shown.

I could see Sonya being slightly disappointed by such a monster, but it was random at the end of the day. Ms. Colorful had given the call that the battle had begun.

With all of their members out, their magic abilities were stronger with range moves. I had noticed that beastmen here were much more potent with them using magic physically.

Now that the battle has started, the monkey has made the first move. Its agility and movement are what made it trickier than the other two monsters.

The monkey ran toward the group of four while dodging every attack that the four could dish out. I had made an early judgment of mistaking this monkey as weaker than the other two. Unlike the others, it was craftier.

Sonya, fighting this monkey, was getting more frustrated by the minute. I don't know how someone could make so many expressions within a day. Was she bipolar? I had mentally noted this just in case her personality had changed again.

While this fight wasn't as pitiful as before, it was pretty hard to watch. Sonya and her group had already lost their reasoning due to the monkey's taunt. The teacher wasn't stopping the fight because it had made them look bad and would lessen the damage to the reputation damage from the earlier fight.

The fight ended with their defeat, they were extremely angry so they went to their own corner to cool off. Olivia and I didn't go to Sonya because we didn't want to deal with that anger.

Having to finish their fight, the other seven had fought their battle with them losing. Only our group had won the fight what a surprise.
