Chapter 64: First Test

[The heroines, Eleanor, Nora, Elsa, Elena, and the protagonist's sister, Luna, are dying of jealousy over the host... 8000 Negative Mana]

[The protagonist, Alan, is feeling jealous and lonely because of the host's actions... 3000 Negative Mana]

Hearing the notifications from the system, Theos couldn't have been happier to receive such juicy rewards... But also his eyes turned as cold as ice, with a tremendous murderous intent that he was fortunately able to barely hide.

'Alan feeling jealous of me? Doesn't that mean he loves Alice?', such an idea made Theos furious to the point of wanting to kill Alan right now.

But he calmed down, why should he kill the person who gives him a great amount of power all the time? Of course, he's going to kill him; he looked at his wife and him with jealousy; he would never tolerate that.

But for now, he would grab the rewards; he didn't say before to plan more things to make Alan's life more miserable.

The reality was that he hadn't had notifications from the system since his birthday because of how busy he'd been preparing, training, developing plans, and having to do 'drills' with Alice.

'But... Wait, that means they all found me, including Alan,' he concluded, widening his vision thanks to his Hate Attraction ability; he observed the whole scene more widely as if it was a camera capturing images from above.

'So they're there...' What Theos saw was Alan in one of the groups of students, chatting happily but also looking out of the corner of his eye at Theos.

Possibly because of his great talent and affinity for Manna, he was able to locate Theos. In contrast, Nora and Eleanor were chatting happily, only accompanied by Elsa and Elena, totally apart from the large group of students.

Possibly because Nora knew of Theos' location, since his father must have told her, she told Eleanor, Elsa, and Elena, so they knew of his location.

'Damn traitor,' Theos cursed inwardly, but he didn't think much of it, an empty curse; there was even a smile on his face since, thanks to her, he got more rewards.

The robotic voice echoed throughout the academy again, making Theos smile. 'At least this is exactly similar to the original plot,' he thought, pausing briefly to look at the numbers of the various buildings.

"There it is," Theos said, pointing to one of the largest buildings on the grounds, entirely black with red lines, as tall as a skyscraper.

Theos moved forward with Alice, holding and intertwining their hands, for them, this was a common thing after spending so many crazy nights together... Exercise nights *cough*.

When she looked closer, she saw that next to the building there was a label with a large number "09", so I understand why Theos considered this building as the one said by the voice.

Indeed, there was a line of students waiting there, although there weren't that many anymore, possibly that voice was repeated many times when the first student entered.

They only had to wait a couple of minutes for them to also enter with total naturalness, observing the whole building from inside, with total technology that looked extremely modern, but this did not interest Theos, who only saw in front of him the crowd of students gathered under one point.

At the epicenter, a large, burly man stood out among the others; with a serious expression, he watched each of the young people, including Theos and Alice.

Staring at Theo's, the man smiled brightly, but that smile disappeared as quickly as it appeared, again turning his attention to the other students. "I'm William, a commoner like many here."

William's words had a hidden meaning that the noble students noticed, but they said nothing, merely thinking.

Instead, the commoners watched William in admiration, amazed that a commoner like them had come so far, despite starting so low.

But before they could question him, William spoke again, this time raising his voice higher. "Now, you are going to fight me."
