She sighed strangely. She's so nervous right now. She do not know what to do. She feel like all her brain cells are rambling.
I can not think properly! She shouted internally
"Are you okay almira? You look pale?" Vera asked. she is a senior in Magic expertise department.
"Y-yeah? I guess"
"Are you nervous?"
"Ha? No!"
"Don't be embarrassed. Don't worry don't worry, we can do it."
"Yes, we can do it! We will win this game."
"Just trust our team. And just enjoy this game ."
Almira take a deep breath again. She is not really calming down! Geez. This is her first time after all.
It would have been ok if it was just hunting. Just like the first game. But this is a war. Huhu.
"Don't worry, you can do it." Pyris uttered.
This girl ... Ah. She barely spoke but it was helpful.
I didn't really regret of choosing her as my Friend. She said to her self
After pyris said that, she tapped almira lightly on the shoulder. And miraculously ... she calmed down!
Thanks.
~^~
"Ah, isn't this the weak department"
Aira, vera, and carla raised their eyebrows when they heard this. Only Pyris who remained pokerface and almira who looks confused.
"Are you referring to yourself?" Vera
"Yes, true. Are you talking to yourself?" Carla.
"Stupid, you just repeated what vera said" Aira.
"Hey! Who the hell are you calling stupid?!"
"Of course it's you! who else? You're really stupid"
"Hey, your out of limit! Oh what? Let's just fight!"
"Fight? I thought we will tweak, gay"
"Hey stop it. You really look like a dog and a cat."
Aira and carla glared at each other but kept quiet.
"Let's get straight to the point everyone. We're not here to have a chat with all of you. So? Game?"
And there the war of swords between the group of BME and CWCW start.
It's not just them though, there is also a war between everyone.
•••
"Hoo! That game is exhausting, but it's fun!" Almira.
"Exhausting? You haven't done much."
"Eeh, it's my first time to experience that kind of game. Do you think, I know how to participate on that?!"
"Psh, your just scared wedge really. Scaredy cat."
"No no! I'm not scared!"
"Alright, alright your not scared it is, I will just pretend to believe."
"Yaaah"
Pyris just shook her head while listening to the quarrel of her group. So was vera who had been laughing so hard . It's really like they are kindergartens when they fight.
Anyway, because of the war of swords that happened. Three more groups were reduced so only seven will fight in the next round.
The next round is called the land of darkness. In this round the players will enter a place of darkness.
Inside the dimension, every players must survive in thus place for 1 hour. Easy right? But it wasn't just that. Inside of that dimensions there is a dark beast lurking around the premises. If ever you get poisoned by this dark beast you will instantly out of the game. You and your group will lose.
"This is so dangerous! Huhu im afraid of dark" Almira
"Don't worry the dark is more afraid of you. Just the look of your face is enough ...." Carla.
"How dare you !? are you blind?!"
"Why are you beautiful?"
Actually, almira is a beauty. Gay carla is just really insecure ... Ehem. I mean he just really wants to annoy almira.
Anyway, the council opened the dimension of darkland. Its players entered immediately.
When they step inside the dimensions, their instinct screams danger at once. But since these students are talented and brave. They gather all their braveness and strength. They only need one hour inside this so they gave their best.
"This place is weird" pyris mumbled.
But since only the five of them in that place and it's so silent. It's not a surprise that her teamates heard her.
"What do you mean?" Aira.
"Their is a unfamiliar strong aura in this place, but im not quite sure."
Their foreheads frowned. They don't feel weird except for nervousness because the place is really screaming for danger.
"Stay stick together, hold each other" was pyris' authoritative command
Even if they wondered what the girl was doing, they immediately did what she told them to do.
"Do you hear that?" Vera.
"H-hear what?"
"I think i just heard a growl over there"
"You heard it too?"
"What ?! What do you hear?"
"Step back, it's not safe here"
Slowly their group retreated. They we're very careful that even their breathing is hold for a moment.
They are sure that once they wake up that monster , they will surely be his breakfast for today.
"Why are you afraid of me little ones"
They heard a voice that is unfamiliar to them. The group members were immediately terrified because of its voice, seemed to have been dug into the depths of the earth
"Who's that?"
"Why are you asking me? We're just together!"
"Shut up you too"
"Come, little ones. Don't be afraid"
"No, Why would we?!" Pyris.
"Oh feisty, i like that"
"Oh so stupid, I don't like that"
"Don't make me mad, little peasants"
"I just did."
Whoever that monster who have a very deep voice that Tries to convince thses ladies very powerful but at the same time naive creature. He's too focus on pursuing them and at the same time holding his annoyance towards Pyris that it's too late for him to know that they are able to escape from his graps. And so, They ran before he could even react.
•••
"Damn! I'm so nervous. I really thought I was going to die!"
"Me too. His presence is very heavy. If it weren't because of pyris maybe we are already dead by now."
"s**t! What kind of creature is that?"
"We don't know!"
"It's cerberus" pyris
"It's what?"
"Cerberus, a dangerous mythical beast from a hundred years ago. And I think that cerberus is the leader or the king. If we don't leave right away. I'm sure we're dead" Pyris sighed.
She was sure of that creature is cerberus. She met a creature like that once when she was still in the forest with her grandfather.
She sighed again when he remembered her grandfather. She missed her grandfather so much. Even though that wasn't his real grandfather, he loves him.
That person is the only person who cares for her. But now he's dead. He was killed. And she will make sure to do her collection soon.
