Chapter Twenty-Eight: Liam's Point of View (2)
After hearing the door open, a boy with black hair entered the hall.
Could it be that he also applied for the entrance exams?
The boy felt the stares around him and began to rub his neck awkwardly.
(Sound effect) "Clapping...."
While the students were looking at him, we heard sharp clapping sounds coming from behind us.
We all turned to find that it was coming from the principal before she broke the silence.
"Each student, head to your designated magic circle."
I headed toward a circle that was near me before the principal spoke again.
"The test has begun."
I felt the energy drain from my body before I lost consciousness.
A thick layer of darkness covered all my senses.
As if we were swimming in an endless swamp.
When I woke up, I found many students as shocked as I was.
Imagine falling asleep and then waking up in a completely different place.
The students and I exchanged glances for a few seconds before we heard a strange sound.
[First mission: Form a team]
When I saw the large screen in the air, I quickly looked around.
Where is Sylvia?
But no matter how much I searched, I couldn't find her at all.
"Sylvia!"
I started yelling loudly, hoping she could hear me.
[One minute remaining]
Only one minute left. Sylvia, where are you?
Please, Sylvia...
[30 seconds remaining]
It seems Sylvia isn't here.
Could she have been transported to a different place?
When I saw a girl next to me, I decided to form a team with her.
"Hi, what do you think about teaming up with me?"
The girl turned to me before bringing her watch closer to mine.
And just before the watches collided—
"Hey Liam, what are you doing?"
I turned to find Sylvia looking at me, her face covered in sweat.
Could it be she ran from the other side of the forest to here?
I quickly hid my watch behind my back and tried to appear normal.
"Yes... you finally came, Sylvia...."
While I was speaking, Sylvia interrupted me.
"What were you about to do just now?"
"I was going to ask after you..."
I tried to dodge the question skillfully, but Sylvia was still insistent.
"Tell me, Liam..."
Is Sylvia doubting me?
"No, Sylvia, I... sob sob"
I couldn't hold myself together and started crying.
Sylvia held my hand and brought her watch close to mine before it started ringing.
[Team formed]
"Okay, don't cry, I'm not angry."
Sniff... sniff...
I pulled myself together and wiped the tears off my face.
"Are you telling the truth?"
Sylvia sighed before speaking.
"Yes, I'm not angry."
I felt relieved by Sylvia's words before a large bell rang.
We looked at the screen and saw a new mission.
[Each of you, choose a suitable weapon]
Suddenly, the ground shook before a massive weapon vault appeared.
"Sylvia, come on, let's go quickly!"
I grabbed Sylvia's hand and pulled her with me toward the weapon vault, but due to the large number of students, we had a hard time reaching the vault.
When we got there, many students were pushing to get weapons.
"Sylvia, quickly, let's choose a weapon!"
I grabbed a small staff so I wouldn't get tired from carrying it, while Sylvia grabbed a strange black sword.
I didn't like the look of the sword, so I decided to choose for her.
I picked a golden sword with the same color as Sylvia's hair and handed it to her.
"Take this, Sylvia."
"But Liam, that sword is more durable."
"No, you'll only take this. Besides, you're very strong, you won't need a durable weapon in this test."
"Liam, please stop being stubborn."
"But Sylvia... sniff... sniff..."
I started crying.
"Ah... fine."
Sylvia sighed before giving in.
"Are you telling the truth?"
I wiped my eyes as I looked at Sylvia.
"Yes..."
When I looked at the sword hanging on Sylvia's back, a wide smile spread across my face.
"It suits you perfectly."
After we chose our weapons, we headed to a tree a bit far from the other students.
"Dun... dun..."
We heard the bell again before we felt another earth quake.
We saw the massive vault sink back into the ground before disappearing.
As if it had never been there at all.
When we looked at the large screen in front of us, the text inside it changed to form a new mission.
[Second Mission: Survive for three days]
[Remaining Time: 02:23:59:07]
"Let's go."

I hope you liked the chapter (￣³￣)
You'll find Elena's image in the comments.
∆.....Very important....∆
Because I'm busy today, I won't respond to most of the comments, but I promise I'll read them later on my own.
And there are other things I want to tell you.
Did you know that out of 3,500 daily views, how many have accounts?
Only 260 people follow with accounts, while the rest haven't even logged in.
∆...So how about a big challenge....∆
If only 50 people from the 3,000 followers add the story to their library,
Then tomorrow's chapter will be free — and the same goes for the following days.
As for the contract, I've already gotten it, so I can lock the chapters — but I'll postpone that for now, so get a little excited for the reward 🔥🔥🔥
But if more than 2,000 people add the story to their library, I promise you 10 to 20 free chapters, maybe even more.
In addition to free chapters even after the novel is locked.
I'll see you tomorrow.
In the locked chapters, I'll put the notes in the author's notes section, so don't worry.
