Leon sheathed his sword. After each elimination, he noted that not a single examinee had any cores, or anything else worth looting for that matter. He looked up at the sky after eliminating the final ambusher, his expression indifferent. 'Look's like it's been almost four and a half hour's since this hunt began. It will look suspicious that 7 of the participants have been eliminated, and I'm the only one that's missing, but I don't have a choice right now.' He thought to himself before beginning to…-

After taking a bath in the river, Lyrian quickly dried up and got on Rird as they started their journey toward the center. Lyrian trailed his way back to where he left off Alten and Leon before beaming it forward, directly towards the epicenter of the Tasnan Wilderlands! *** The information that the kid from the 7 ambushers was alerting Leon, and also quite concerning, since it meant that they had already found out that Alten had the cores and that he was currently in trouble. But the concerned…

Seeing that he could alter everything on the canvas to his will, Lyrian was filled with an eager exhilaration. Not dwelling on the feeling too much, he decided to begin creating something, since he didn't want to waste too much time experimenting and get to the center as soon as possible. 'The best attributes of the bear are its size-changing ability based on its age, its monstrous strength, and also its large size when it gets too elder. Thinking about pure animal abilities, its sense of smell and…

Leon noticed that in the group of 20, there were about 7 people that he recognized. It wasn't like they were lifelong, old friends of his or anything. He recognized them because he made sure to remember their faces from a moment ago. When he was eating, he memorized the faces of those who were looking at him for too long. Although this was an odd thing on top of another one, there was still a chance that it was a coincidence. After all, they were near the platform anyways, so out of 20 they could…

As Leon was picked, he looked back at Alten, realizing that he wasn't able to go. The kid who picked him up shouted from the stage, "Hey! You gonna go or not?" Leon continued to face Alten, seemingly ignoring the kid on stage, who quickly retorted, "Oh what? I separated you from your group. Don't be such a pansy, it's not like you guys are separating forever. It's a few hours and then you can go on another hunt together. Jeez, kids nowadays..." Alten spoke to Leon, having already forged a…

Alten and Leon made their way over to an array of wooden benches crafted by the other students in their free time. There were about 10 of them spread around near the food stall area, and Rylan led them to one before sitting down. Alten looked over to the direction that the bullies had gone, "So those are the core stealers huh... thankfully they don't seem to be too strong." Alten said as he sat down. Leon didn't say anything, as Rylan immediately replied, "Haha... I wish." He said to Alten's…

Rylan picked up his glasses, turning back around as he quickly put them on. The boy next to him, similar in height to Leon, sported dreadlocks and bore a distinctive scar running across the back of his head. His dark brown skin had a rich complexion, and he donned a sleeveless tunic-like white garment made of an iron-plastic blend that accentuated his muscular arms and poked out above his shoulders. "Move." He suddenly said, as Rylan quickly made his way further in line. The boy began picking up…

Seeing odd stares from people around him, Rylan quickly jumped back in line, "Dude, you're a celebrity at this point. Thank god I made friends with you when I did." He latched onto Alten's arm while crying tears of joy. "I know... muhaha!" Alten let out a villainous laugh, "So... how about you tell me what happened with your side of the story now. How did your plan fail?" Alten said, genuinely interested. Hearing this, Rylan's tone turned a bit gloomier, but not as much as before since he just heard…

The two of them picked up large, plate-sized leaves and some wooden chopsticks before going through the stalls. The array of food surprised both of them. There wasn't just seasoned meat, which they expected at the very most, but even soups, salads, fruits, and more. Of course, as expected, there wasn't any bread or something like that which would take long to make, but it was impressive nonetheless. As they picked out their food, a hand suddenly touched Alten's back. Slightly surprised, he turned…

After several more hours of trekking the land on ostrich back, Leon and Alten finally began seeing something unfamiliar and unnatural in the distance. Alten raised his head to see what it was, "I think that's it over there!" He said, looking at the large, transparent light blue dome over 500 meters away in the distance. Upon getting 100 meters away from it, they realized that it connected a few different biomes. Grasslands, where they were coming from. The vast expanse of gently swaying grasses…
