Book 1: Chapter 102.2: Wrapping Up the Tournament Part II

Scarlet

Is it still too late to voice how against this plan I am? Tar says for the third time as I continue crawling through the little tunnel that I found some sort of mole demon having made and realized led straight to the center through my ears and the sounds of combat.

I ignore the tanuki.

This plan is great, and you know it. Because unless I attack them, theyll get a penalty for attacking me, and Ill be awarded free points. And if I do attack them, itll be when I have a chance to kill stea- I mean, defeat one of them fairly in battle.

Tar just sighs and doesnt say anything else, not even commenting on my minor slipup.

I continue crawling my way through the tunnel until I finally find a sudden bend in it that goes upwards, leading to the surface where I see a few fireballs flying by overhead.

Yeah, thats not a welcoming sight. But I have to remember. Even if I get killed by a stray fireball, Ill be fine since Ill be getting compensation points due to being killed by someone of a higher Class.

I take in a deep breath before letting it out and slowly climbing my way to the top before just poking the top of my head and ears out enough to look around, finding the three Guardians standing at three opposing places in the center of the forest, which while used to be a nest for a giant spider is now just charred black and full of holes. Meanwhile, of the three students, I find the closest one to me actually being the one seeming to be on the worst terms at the moment.

Hes wearing a set of red armor that appears to be made up of scales and is very obviously the one throwing the fireballs. And thats a lot of fireballs.

All three of the students look exhausted and are likely almost out of mana by now. Considering how long theyve been going at it.

Especially the fireball guy, since he is just chucking those like theyre baseballs from one of those baseball throwing machines Ive seen on tv shows in batting cages. Those things used for practice for one of the old world sports that some museums like to keep around and let people try. Some sport where you throw a ball around and try to hit it with a stick.

[You have killed the student known as Jake Argol. One fifth of his points have now been transferred to you. Your total points now equal 5231 points.]

Even with the massive amount of pain burning through my side and practically everywhere else as I continue skipping across the ground, destroying parts of it in the process until I slam into a tree, I cant help the grin that spreads across my face.

But then the actual pain reaches me, and I cough out a mouthful of blood.

My vision begins to fade as I find myself looking up at the blood moon in the sky and the floating countdown that is now at ten seconds.

You, I hear a girls voice, making me slowly with a lot of effort turn my head to find the girl with the katana looking at me from the other side of the charred center of the forest with a rather calm look on her face. Youre Michael and Emilys teammate, arent you?

I cant help but blink at her in surprise through the pain, but I dont manage to make a response beyond a rather wheezy one that is completely inaudible now that the burns of that wound managed to spread all the way across almost a third of my body.

Guess the punch was much stronger than it looked. Im just lucky the guy was already close to dead.

Slowly my vision begins to fade away, but before it does, I hear the girl say, No need to answer. She pauses for a second as the sound of metal sliding against metal as she sheathes her sword echoes from there into my ears. On account of not seeing a way to finish him off myself in the time we had remaining, I will let this slide.

I look up at the sky again to see the countdown at three seconds left.

Take care of my siblings.

Then right when my vision is about to go fully black, the countdown strikes zero and I suddenly find myself back in the auditorium feeling perfectly fine as if I wasnt just dying.
