Chapter 90 Group survival test. Part-1

Inside the SSA.

Link's group.

Group no.1 has been walking around here for about an hour or so. The survival test has just started and there is a long way to go as of yet. But that is not what the three first-year members of the group are worried about.

"Muhahaha... hahaha.... These monsters are so weak... hahaha...." (Link)

Link was laughing like a madman while punching the monsters into meat paste, most of the weaker monsters ran away terrified of Link's terrifying aura, and the rest who were not able to run on time were smashed into meat paste by Link in a single punch.

All three newbies looked at each other with a complicated expression on their faces:

"Uh... what are we supposed to do here, again?..." (Lenn)

"Who knows, perhaps to watch monsters get slaughtered..." (Ars)

"H-hey guys, we should p-perhaps stop him, r-right?" (Leo)

While the three were contemplating what to do next, Link caught a huge bear with one hand and smashed the bear's head into smithereens by banging his head on the bear's head, resulting in Link's head being covered with blood, making him look like a madman.

"HAHAHAHA... is that all!.... come!.... I am not satisfied yet! Hahahaha!!" (Link)

"Well, now I understand why they put his name 'Berserk warrior Link'....." (Ars)

"Y-yeah..." (Lenn)

While the three were looking at Link in shock, Link stood at the pile of corpses and looked at them, he smiled like a devil and said:

"Let's go ahead guys, there should be stronger monsters ahead, hahahahaha!!" (Link)

After saying that, Link hurried in a different direction, while the rest of the three struggled to follow behind him, due to his speed of jumping and passing through the forest.

...

...

At the same time, Lia's group.

"Orcs generally have a few weaker spots you can target to defeat them, like their heart, eyes, or neck, I would recommend you go for the eyes first, it gives you an advantage over the opponent when fighting... like this..." (Lia)

While saying that Lia stabbed the eyes of the Orc lying on the ground. The orc started to flail madly from pain, but since its hands and legs were sliced off by Lia, it couldn't do anything but wail in pain. Its heart-wrenching cries made the surrounding monsters cower in fear.

But Lia ignored these and calmly demonstrated the weakness of the orcs by stabbing and slicing them while explaining it to the three first-years, who were looking at her in fear.

Unlike the ignorant Link, Lia properly demonstrates the weaknesses of several monsters to them since they entered the area. It's been an hour and Lia has already tortured about five monsters like mad demons with no emotions.

Her calm torturing of the monster made the students realize why she is given the nickname 'Mad Demon Sword Lia'.

One of the two girls in the group mustered up her courage and asked:

"UH... b-but, do you also use these weaknesses when fighting the orcs, s-senpai?"

Lia looked at the girl strangely and then said:

"Well, these weaknesses are meant to be targeted and used by those who are in equal or lower rank than these orcs, but someone who is higher in rank than these orcs, like me, would be able to brute force their way during the fight, like this.." (Lia)

Lia channeled her mana and stabbed the wailing orc in the stomach, causing a huge hole to burst out, her attack made a hole of one meter in diameter, which went right through the body of the orc and even made a pit in the ground.

The impact made the innards of the orc fly and splash on the newbies, making them covered in blood, while they looked at Lia with a horrified look, as if they had seen a demon.

Looking at all the dead bodies pierced through around them and looking at the horrifying death of this orc, all three of the newbies had only one thought in their minds.

'She is indeed a demon!!'

...

...

At the same time, Riya's group.

"Yosh, your wounds are all healed up!" (Riya)

"T-thank you, Senpai!"

"Hehe, welcome! Hehe, they called me Senpai! Hehe" (Riya)

Being called 'senpai' made Riya very happy. A sweet smile hung on her cute face, making the newbies stunned by her, all of the three had only one thought on their mind.

'We must protect this cute creature!!!'

One of the newbies asked:

"By the way, Senpai, you are a healer, how would you fight if a strong monster came?"

"hmm, well I can't really fight, but I can buff you guys up so, there shouldn't be much of a problem, after all with a B-rank healer providing the buffs you could easily fight a C-rank opponent at least." (Riya)

Riya smiled and said:

"And if a stronger monster came, we will courageously take our weapons and ... run away!!, hehe" (Riya)

"But don't worry, as a B-rank healer my physical capabilities are as strong as an ordinary C-ranker at least, I think, hehe... so we can run without worry.. hehe" (Riya)

"yes! We will run away Senpai!"

All three of the newbies cheered up with bright smiles on their faces while crying in their minds:

'Seriously, if a strong monster came, we would be so dead!!'

...

...

At the same time, Fade's group.

Fade blasted a wolf monster with flame magic in one attack.

"Oh, you are so strong, Fade Senpai!"

"Hm, this is nothing, I can even kill a B-rank monster in one shot, hehe" (Fade) (Obviously bragging)

'hmph, these idiots, believing everything I say like, blockheads, well bragging feels good too, hehehehe (Fade)

"By the way, Senpai, is it really true that you once beat the No. 1 ranked Link Rex to the point he begged you for mercy!"

"Of course, his face was covered in tears and snot at the time and he begged me to spare him in a trembling voice after I defeated him in that B-rank dungeon..." (Fade)

"You are so amazing, Senpai!"

Although Fade was obviously spouting nonsense his protagonist aura made others believe him unconditionally, making them think that he was indeed saying the truth.

His hand which was last time sliced by Jiang was reattached by an S-rank healer of the academy, he recovered to full health in the past month.

Now Fade has already reached rank C+ and can be considered directly below Link, Rio, and Lia in strength. Only these three are ahead of him in strength due to their various abilities and B-rank.

But obviously Fade doesn't take any of them seriously at all, he believes he has endless potential and he can reach or even surpass even the SS-rankers one day not to mention the students of the academy.

"By the way, what is your main magic Senpai? I can see that you can use several types of magic..."

Fade smiled proudly and said:

"Well, I can use every type of magic there is in this world. Not to mention that I can even do quad-casting that even A-rankers struggle to do!" (Fade)

[Quad-casting: Casting four types of different magic at the same time, for example, casting, fire, water, earth, and thunder magic all at the same time. This is a very difficult-to-implement technique that only a few extremely skilled mages can do. Even A-rankers struggle to do this. But Fade is an exception he can learn and do it with the help of his system.]

"Wow, you are so amazing Senpai!"

While Fade was walking with a smug look on his face, a huge hand punched him in the back making him fly away and collide with several trees before landing on the ground.

"cough! Cough! Ugh!.. What the heck!" (Fade)

Fade looked back and found a huge monster with a face like an octopus and a body like an orc standing behind him, its tentacles which were connected to its octopus head were carrying the newbies in their grasp.

[Mimic-walker: A monster that can mimic the voices of its captured prey to lure or bring the guard down of the other prey. Its body is as strong as an ogre and it has a high magic resistance, generally, it's better to fight it without a mage.]

The monster opened its huge mouth filled with razor-sharp teeth and said:

"You are so amazing Senpai!"

Hearing the monster mimic the voice of the newbies, Fade understood that all this while he was bragging to a monster.

"Ugh... damn you!" (Fade)

...
