Chapter 213: Chapter 213:Battle Royale [3]

A moment later, countless items and various artifacts began appearing in the locations where the three students used to be.

Ignoring the items, I immediately de-manifested both my wings before bending downwards.

Now that I was officially on the elimination leaderboard for the battle royale, more drones would start to appear.

I wasn't against revealing my power and abilities, but I wasn't going to do it if it wasn't necessary or a requirement.

Wiping the dust off my hands, I helped Han to his feet before turning back to the awestruck Jin.

Shrugging my shoulders, I replied.

"I picked up a couple of tricks, you know?"

Standing up and readjusting his pants, Han chuckled before responding to Jin.

"Did you know? Well, I'm not complaining after that!"

After bowing in thanks, Han went over to Jin and began rationing out the items that we had picked up from the supply drop earlier.

Seeing them finishing distributing the items, I walked over and curiously asked Han.

"So...what happened to you?"

Avoiding Jin and me's curious gaze, Han looked at the ground before ashamedly admitting.

"I found a chest... but before I could loot it, five students popped up. I was too distracted by the items to notice them, so they easily beat me."

Thinking for a moment, I questioned.

"How come they didn't just eliminate you and instead kept you alive?"

Looking up from the ground, a slight smile began to take form on Han's face as he eagerly replied.

"I told them I knew where another chest was, so they didn't kill me. I just told them a random location, and they sent two students to go look for it while the three you took out stayed with me."

Tapping Han on the shoulder, I praised.

"Good thinking!"

As Han's expression quickly lightened and he no longer felt ashamed, the three of us departed, not allowing the other two students to see us.

While it was true that a lot of students were in the alliance led by the prince, Bertus, just as I had seen, some students did not join.

The main cast weren't the only ones roaming the forest with us... there were some stray students around.

For the next hour, the three of us simply walked through the forest while keeping an attentive watch on our surroundings.

Occasionally, I would use my eyes to peer around the entire forest, finding a couple of chests in the process.

Then, instead of heading directly to the chests, I would pretend to get lost or make some random turn because "I heard something."

Then, like magic, the chest I had found be lying right in front of out path ahead.

As one last chest appeared in the distance, right below a nearby tree, Jin stared at me for a moment before happily exclaiming.

"...HOW LUCKY ARE WE!?"

Han, on the other hand, gazed at me for a couple of seconds before turning away without questioning our "luck."

Usually, Jin would be happy to see another chest, but at this point, all of our arms were filled with items, so we didn't even have space for more.

We were probably the most geared students right now.

Grumpily opening the chest, the three of us began searching through the items, trying to find a more useful one than we already had.

A half-Health potion or double-mana potion."

In unison, Han and I replied.

"Double-mana potion."

Thus, as the two of us stood up from the final chest, Han was equipped with his usual crossbow while having a quiver filled with arrows tied to his back. seaʀᴄh thё ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Each arrow in the quiver was special, its tip colored with different colors like green or purple, representing a poison arrow or an immobilization arrow.

As the official marksman of our group, Han also had a green cloak that allowed him to blend in with our surroundings.

Although Han wasn't necessarily the best with the bows and other long-ranged reasons, his movement ability, Gravity Flux, essentially forced him to.

Just as it sounds, Han's ability allowed him to manipulate gravity for a short period of time, making his weight absolutely zero.

Although the ability was extremely powerful, it was hard on Han at first; if he used it, he would immediately start flying upwards as there was nothing holding him to the ground anymore.

Letting out a chuckle, I recalled the time when Jin and I had to fish Han out of a tree because he accidentally activated the ability.

However, as Han got used to the ability, it actually became quite powerful as it allowed Han to walk on walls and ceilings and fly if he could control it.

While this ability would be useless for close-combat fighters like me and my dagger, the ability allowed Han to easily avoid spells or hide in places that no one would ever check while firing a relentless barrage of arrows.

On the other hand, Jin was equipped with slick and silver odachi, which was currently held in a scabbard that was hanging around his waist.

The long and thin sword resembled a katana; however, unlike a katana, the odachi's blade length was far longer.

This was both a strength and a weakness, as the odachi allowed for stronger strikes than a katana because of its increased blade length.

However, the katana's shorter blade length made it faster and much more manageable to use.

This meant that despite Jin having a sword, I was the close-combat dealer of our group because of my daggers.

My daggers were small and curved, so I could swing them countless more times in a single second than Jin could swing his odachi.

The odachi wouldn't be able to keep up the relentless barrage of swings that a broadsword could do.

The swings of odachi required time; however, that also meant that each swing carried an immense amount of power with it.

So, instead, Jin played more of a flex role as he was able to play both long range due to his increased blade length and short range with the odachi occasioanlly.
