As the Extras Academy Survival Guide Translator, my role is to provide a translation into English, capturing the essence of the scenario. Here is the translated text:

Through the legs of a giant wolf letting out a resentful howl, I can see, far in the distance, a boy sitting on an altar with his head bowed in defeat. He looks utterly exhausted, like he doesnt wish to move anymore.

Isnt this the perfect time to strike him properly, I wonder. As Tanya nods in agreement, Kylie charges towards the wolf without hesitation, without even a word.

Tanya is impressed by what seems like courage, but she quickly shelves that thought when she hears the scream:

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

The sight of Kylie, screaming half in tears and rushing forwards, is the very picture of fear.

Even if one believes they wont get hurt, hurling oneself into the embrace of such a massive wolf seems like a suicidal act. Moreover, the assurance was unless some special exception applies, not that one absolutely wont get hurt. If theres even the slightest possibility, the fear still lingers.

Nonetheless, Tanya had to admit, the sheer willpower Kylie showed in rushing forth demanded respect.

She quickly dashed in the opposite direction. She couldnt predict how big a gap Kylie might create for her, but for now, she had to seize the opportunity presented.

The Wind Wolf is startled for a moment.

After all, it was just an exam for class placement for new students. Theres a big chance that there was no real intention to hurt or kill the opponent.

So what should it do with a girl who charges in as though its a suicide run? Using those massive paws to press down and crush her would cause serious backlash.

But it cant just stand there; even at the risk of causing some injury Merilda swings its front paw lightly.

However, the one who ends up wounded is Merilda.

Boom!

A cloud of smoke billows, but Merildas front paw couldnt even scratch Kylie.

Kylies adorable but reckless charge leaves a deep wound on Merilda.

Cuts, as if stained with claws, appear on its belly and flanks. Distinct traces of blood are visible on the ground.

Roar!

Merilda, confused by the unexpected attack, releases a shrieking cry.

The roar momentarily shakes the air, a sound of panic. But the frail Kylie is thrown back by the shock alone.

Ahhh!

Her pale and slim limbs are not optimized for battle; just rolling on the ground a few times has drained her of all strength, rendering her useless.

Clang!

In the meantime, the sound of something falling from Kylies body is heard.

Somehow, relying on just the protection around her, she succeeds in pinning down Merildas movements for a moment.

This brief window was all the time Tanya had to struggle one last time.

She was already charging towards Ed. The range of Tanyas basic magic is extremely short.

But, considering that the already battle-worn and magic-drained Ed from summoning high spirits is now before her, even a single blow would be fatal.

The sight of the boy on the altar, completely drained and sitting down, was getting closer.

Kylie overcame her terror to create this brief window of opportunity; Tanya couldnt afford to waste it.

The basic Wind magic Dispersion.

Its one of the few spells Tanya has mastered properly. It creates a strong wind centered on the caster, disrupting the movement of enemies nearby, and if powerful enough, can knock them flying.Gét latest novel chapters on nov(e)lbj/n(.)c/om

She pushes Ed away from the altar and swiftly offers up the magic stone. This was the last gambit.

As Tanya, panting heavily, reaches the altar, Eds figure comes fully into view.

Tanya clenches her teeth and shouts.

You thought Id give up?!

There was always a sense of rebellion in her. The defiance in her voice was tinged with chills.

The surge of magical wind becomes her final spear. It shatters the overwhelming disparity of power; Tanyas last stand.

Ed looks down at her coldly, with no trace of panic in his eyes. Whats truly terrifying is that gaze.

Such an unshaken gaze, as if nothing is wrong. But its too late now for Tanya to be intimidated by that look. The dice have already been cast.

The surrounding wind magic hits Ed, and with him not even flinching, he falls from the altar and disappears.

Gasp Gasp

He thought she would run away with her tail between her legs at the sight of a high spirit but she surprisingly showed resilience.

If I had been in that position, I would have run without looking back. But the fact that you, exhausted as you were, still tried to subdue me with tactics thats really something. Not just anyone can do that. You can take pride in that. Youre pretty amazing.

Uh.. uh

Already collapsing from the situation, the moment Tanya realizes the ordeal is over, an incomprehensible wave of emotion starts to rise within her.

Ah Ugh

Feeling awkward about the reaction he got, Ed hadnt foreseen this outcome.

Regardless, the examination time was over. Tanyas magic stone was destroyed.

With no desire to fight further, he contemplated some consoling words

Dont come any closer!

A girl suddenly rushes between Tanya and Ed, her face covered in dirt as she bravely stands up to Ed.

She stands with arms widespread, trembling, apparently having rushed over out of fear that Tanya might be harmed.

Let me tell you if you if you treat me as an enemy and attack something bad will happen! I mean it! Dont dont move!

She begs as if pleading to be believed, shaking so much its hard to tell who is threatening whom.

Ed, with no intention to harm, just sighs deeply.

But his gaze drifts downwards, and in an instant, his pupils dilate.

For the first time since the test began, Ed appears shaken, and he starts scanning the surroundings.

Even though shes apprehensive of the change in Eds demeanor, the girl doesnt let her trembling hands down, keeping focused on him.

The exam is over! Ed! Come here and help! Clevius totally knocked himself out!

Professor Claire, can you update the score first! Theres a mountain of stuff to take care of! The student council president elections are just at the start of next semester!

Suddenly, from the altar entrance, Professor Claires voice is heard. The voices of Anis and Yenika suggest that they are starting to tidy up after the examination.

Ed tosses the last magic stone towards the altar. As magic swirls around him, a small flame bat rises above his head.

What are you doing! The exam is over! What are you trying to do now?!

The girls voice shakes as she calls out, but Ed pays no mind and sends the flame bat into the altars clearing.

Theres no more reason to fight, is there? The faculty seems to be making their way up, so all thats left is to stand guard and protect Tanya until they arrive.

The girl believes that but then she feels a sudden change.

Quickly glancing down at herself, she realizes what that sensation is. The tips of her chestnut hair begin to tarnish, as hints of silver swirl around.

The Illusion Magic given by the clerics of Saint tower is maintained by the Crescent Moon Brooch, a semi-permanent magic engineering tool brought from Sylvania. It must be always carried to keep its effect ongoing.

Clatter!

The sound made when she was thrown back by Merilda, she now realizes what it was. It was the sound of the Crescent Moon Brooch rolling on the ground, which she always kept close.

This is!

The faculty are just about to burst in.

The girl feels a creeping horror as her heartbeat intensifies and her breathing quickens. She swiftly turns her head towards the clearing.

But the flame bat, sent off by Ed, had already fetched the brooch.

The brooch in his grasp, Ed quickly stuffs it back into the girls chest.

Be careful not to lose your stuff be careful.

It was her first experience having such a large hand in her chest. Overwhelmed by the moment and the current experience, she takes a step back in shock.

Breathing in and out at an uneven pace, merely looking at Ed makes her feel as if her head is filling with blood.

The subtle light from the brooch again radiates, and the girls hair, which had started to turn silver, regains its original color.

Uh Uh

The situation was so sudden that she couldnt muster a response. She just stood there, unable to react as the words got stuck in her throat.

Im coming now!

My goodness, Ed! Why, why are you so hurt..!

As Ed gathers the elements and struggles to move towards the faculty with his injured body, the girl can only remain standing.

Fortunately Tanya seems too disoriented by the situation to grasp what just happened.

The girl is just left standing there
