Chapter 91: Second Semester (1)

Boom—!

The air vibrated as she fell vertically from the Training Island, her landing causing an impact so violent it created a crater. Nevertheless, she just dusted off her clothes as if nothing happened.

“… This is faster.”

Allen jumped straight out of the ground after free-falling from a height of 3,000m, during which she kept her speed under control.

—Explain why you did it.

She hadn’t even walked a few steps yet when someone talked to her. Allen pressed a finger against her ear.

“What do you mean?”

—I heard the news about yesterday.

“Aha~ That? It was part of the mission.”

—We never gave you such a task.

Allen laughed softly.

As she expected, they didn’t know how to listen properly.

“Yeah~ that’s why I said it’s only a ‘part’ of it.”

—…

The voice remained silent for a moment, allowing Allen to check if her robe was clean. If it were even just a bit dirty, the Professor wouldn’t like it.

She didn’t reply. Instead, Ellie smiled broadly and hung up.

As she did, from the other side of the forest, three panting children came running to her. They had name tags labeled ‘Carlos,’ ‘Leo,’ and ‘Lia’ on their chests.

“Are you a supervisor?” Asked the only female among them.

Ellie shook her head. “No, I’m not~ What test are you taking?”

“Oh, we’re undergoing the adventurer exam— Ah! Run!”

The trio turned around and grabbed Ellie’s hand in surprise, causing her to look where they came from.

Boom—! Bang—! Boom—! Bang—!

A large beast with a physique larger than a bear and antlers that could cut even steel appeared, charging in their direction.

Bearhorn.

“If you’re not a supervisor, you should evacuate immediately—”

“It’s okay. I’ll stay behind.”

“What?”
