S2 Chapter 34

Everywhere, just silence and Emi, after 2 minutes of no voice said, "Oh, I got it. Because before you all get to know that he is first ranker, you all thought that he is weakest but when you all get to know, then you all can't digest the fact. Do you really think that world will be shown like the way you want?... Now I understood why big brother always wants a normal life."

And Emi left with a deep impact in some Survivors but majority was still criticizing and everyone started leaving the main hall.

Yuzui was also sad and all the night, she was just thinking about it. Even during the hunt and the night also passed.

[ 2 months later ]

Now, the mission of Ichiro, which was to make each Survivor capable to at least defeat 1st to 3rd grade demons was successful and all the 5 seats were covered.

The candidates are: Ichiro, Nobela, Yuzui, Yuki and surprisingly Akio!

The rank board of the challenge was,

[ 1st Ranker: Ichiro with hunting down 100 million of demons ]

[ 2nd Ranker: Nobela with hunting down 40 million of demons ]

And yes, when Nobela started hunting with duration of 10 hours everyday lead to obtain his rank second back although he was not even a little bit close to Ichiro because he was become unstoppable.

[ 3rd Ranker: Yuzui with hunting down 38 million demons ]

Although Yuzui is close and can surpass back Nobela's rank.

[ 4th Ranker: Yuki with hunting down 35 million demons ]

[ 5th Ranker: Akio with hunting down 10 million demons ]

Yuzui, Nobela and Yuki were crying that betraying Ichiro was definitely not a good idea. It was the worse idea because now they are not even half of hunting counts as of Ichiro.

Whereas Akio was happy that he will be able to participate in the final boss fight.

At night, everyone was called to gather in the main hall.

Everyone gathered but candidates were not there.

Suddenly host beast arrived on the stage and said, "Survivors! It has been 2 months since we are hunting and saving our citizens from demons. And you all have worked a lot and gained some name from our citizens. You all have also done great in quests and nobody left the chance to try it! I am glad that we have such a powerful team. But now... It is the time to end at once and for all. We are going to defeat the Demon King and for it 5 candidates have been selected. Please welcome our 5 candidates!"

And Ichiro came on the stage but no one clapped for him except a few, then Nobela arrived and for him, everybody started clapping and like this Yuzui, Yuki and Akio came on the seat. Nobela, Yuzui, Yuki and Emi were feeling sad for Ichiro that only a few clapped for him and for them, everyone was clapping.

Emi came on the stage and said, "Ok, now we are going to end this demon war forever. And you all can see who are going to participate and defeat them. Tomorrow they will be gone for it so pray for them and give a best of luck to them."

The host beast said, "I was expecting that second ranker, Miss Yuzui and Miss Yuki will be in the participation but I was curious that who will be the 5th and it is Akio. I am glad that he gave his best to get that seat and he deserves it--"

Suddenly one of the Survivors said,

"What a waste! Akio is also a friend of Ichiro so it was obvious for him to get the last seat."

Ichiro said, "What do you mean that he is my friend? Can't you see at the board, he is fifth." And now Ichiro was totally becoming angry.

"Blah blah blah. Just talk rubbish. If you top 4 get out of it, we can surely say that we could save this world much better. We would have already defeated the Demon King and ended at once but you, Ichiro, you are a coward that you waited for more 4 candidates, right?"

Ichiro remain silent with a normal face and Yuzui said, "Hey! What do--"

Ichiro said, "Yuzui, calm down. We have to go for the mission tomorrow so we should be excited, not angry."

Emi said, "Stop it and now I guess, you all should go and take a plenty of sleep and rest. Tomorrow is a special day so please don't spoil it." To the candidates.

And Ichiro, Yuzui, Nobela, Yuki and Akio started leaving but Akio was a little bit hurt that others think that he was selected because he is or was a friend of Ichiro.

"Don't take it seriously, Akio. Tomorrow is a special day, so smile and be excited. We are going to end this war." Said Ichiro.

Akio was motivated a little bit and said, "Thank you, by the way, do you know how big Demon King can be?"

Ichiro said, "It doesn't have a specific size, I mean it has the power to be in size of humans like us or in a size of the 7th tier 5th grade demon with whom I fought. Simply he can minimize and maximize his size."

Akio said, "Oh, is that so. Then it can be difficult, right?"

Ichiro said, "Yes, because when he will be big, our attacks will not give a big wound although he also can't attack because he is big and when he will be of our size, we can attack serious wounds but he will be able to fight also well."

Akio said, "Oh, you know that much. But won't it will be fun, we are going to fight together which we last did on our first test."

Ichiro smiled and said, "Yes, it will be."

And till that, Akio had reached his room and with saying good night to each other, Ichiro started moving towards his room and Akio entered in his room, closed it and lied on his bed.
