The entrance exam 2

Dea and others, of course, went in together, and when they all opened their eyes, the first thing they heard was a roar.

"Damn, what luck, we just teleported here but already met a beast." Said Leonel.

"It's a 3rd stage fiery lion." Said ivy excitedly and went for a kill before anyone could react.

"Don't damage it too much." Called Dea.

"Hmm." Answered Ivy. He did not know why Dea asked her this, but since her cutest sister in the world wanted this lion, she would, of course, give it to her.

"Do you need it for something?" Asked Aqua.

"Its meat is delicious. We can do a barbeque." Answered Dea. Dea was lazy most of the time, and she did not eat much, but she was a great cook, or should I say she was a great cook in the wild. 

  For some reason, whenever she was in the wilderness, her appetite would grow, so she learned how to cook outside, and it would not be an exaggeration to say she mastered it.

  As they heard Dea's words, all of them drooled, and in their eyes, this ferocious lion turned into a piece of delicious meat.

  One thing Dea found out about these people was that they were all big foodies.

  They quickly killed the lion, and in a few minutes, even the meat was cut and seasoned, and everything was ready for the barbecue. Aries even managed to find some vegetables, and now 4 grown-up kids were sitting on the ground waiting for the food with drooling mouths.

Dea could not help but smile seeing this.

'Ara… how cute. Makes me want to bully them a little.' Thought Dea, but still honestly barbequed all the meat.

After eating, all of them had satisfied smiles and round bellies. 

"Ahh, you are such a good cook." Said Aries.

"Honestly, I didn't know you were so good." Followed Ivy.

  Others also did not forget compliments, and all of them were now looking at her with admiring and sparkling eyes, but honestly, Dea felt a headache coming.

  The next two days went at the same pace. So, as the other poor candidates and students were fighting for their lives, Dea and the bunch were like tourists traveling in the forest, killing different beasts, and eating different food completely unbothered. Sometimes one or two ignorant people would try to break their peace but quickly got taught the lesson.

In these two days, more than a hundred candidates were eliminated, and 15 of them died.

In some other part of the forest,

"Joshua, you bastard, I will get you back for this." Roared one man.

"oh… come on Ravi, don't act all innocent now. Like it was not you who tried to sneak attack us," said Joshua.

  Joshua and his team of 7 were hunting a few candidates when they noticed Ravi and his group were planning a sneak attack on them and taking the spoils. It so happens that Ravi and Joshua disliked each other since they met last year on the entrance exams. So, when Joshua noticed his activities, he played a trick and instead managed to injure two of his members.

  After being in a deadlock for 20 minutes finally, 4 players from each group were eliminated, and just as they were about to engage in another heated battle, they heard a loud roar, and before anyone could reach a beast already killed one of their own. 

  What they saw was a huge panther with red fur. Fire could be seen on its paws, and as it walked towards them, the ground got burnt. It was still covered in the blood of a person, and a half-eaten body lay at its feet.

"Ahhhhhh" one of the girls screamed as she fell in fear.

  With the scream, both Joshua and Ravi came to their senses, and with a tacit understanding, both started to run as they called their team members.

  Some of them ran to the left, others to the right, hoping the beast would not follow them

"Ahh…" Finally, Ravi sat on the ground as he saw that the beast was not following.

  When he finally calmed down and looked around, he could not help but curse, both of his team members were gone, and next to him, not far away, stood Joshua with his teammate that he picked up and ran with.

  All he could do now is pray that they would be fine and continues with this fucking hunt.

  Joshua also thought the same, and even though he saw that Ravi was at a disadvantage, he did not attack and just left with the girl.

  Later they met different student teams, and all three of them were eliminated.

  On the other hand, their teammates did not have such luck. First, they were chased by the beast, and after running for about 30 minutes, they saw a man in the front. Thinking of using this man to get away from the beast, but before they could react, the man killed the beast and turned toward them.

  All they saw was the man's cold purple eyes before they died, not understanding what was going on.

  Dark blue hair fluttered in the wind as he cleaned his bloodied sword and put it back in the sheath.

"How many candidates are left?" Asked the dean.

"25 candidates are left before the hunt ends."

"What about our students?" Said the dean again.

"13 of them were eliminated from 2 groups, nine of them were eliminated by our own students." Said the assistant with a troubled face.

"What about the other four?"

"First, these groups had discord with one another, and 4 people were eliminated from each group. Then a beast showed up, and they were both attacked, one person died, and they went in a different direction, one group met other students and got eliminated, the other 3 met a lone candidate and were killed by him." Said the assistant.

Hearing this, the deans' brows furrowed.

'Seems like a troublesome guy came to our school.' She thought. 

"Who is he?"

"His name is Zora, 17, has a special type of power called "sound" origin is unknown." The assistant told all the information they had on this person.

"Keep an eye on him but don't get too close. As long as he does not cause trouble, leave him be."

"Yes." The assistant said and went out of the room. 

Dean's eyes glowed with a cold glint.

"These people sent troublesome person on my way again." Muttered Dean coldly, disgust could be seen in her eyes.

  In about 3 hours, the last 25 candidates were eliminated, and the rest of the students came back to the hall.

The dean and other teachers were there waiting for them.

"Welcome, everyone, and congratulations to the new students. You may go and get accustomed to everything. The academy will officially start in ten days." Said the dean with a smile and disappeared like she was never there in the first place.

 

  In a few minutes, everyone came to their senses and scattered. Dea and her group went back to their rented house as well.
