laine and I were, of course, the ones who ca forward to write the answer.
This was the first ti I had seen her so close since we t in the alley of the lower district.
At that ti, I was a bit shocked by the words 'Will you go away?', but now I know.
What kind of bad relationship she has with Max.
Of course, resolving the thread of that bad relationship was an important issue. There was no second year student who could be as helpful as her. Both in terms of ability and personality.
The thought of being betrayed by her, who falls into the category of 'good person' so openly, is sothing that those who have played the ga would not even imagine.
It ans she is a person you can trust.
However.
Even such a person becos the very embodint of a cold city woman only in front of that Max guy.
Cold eyes. It was worth exchanging a word of formal greeting, but she did not open her mouth.
As expected, I casually threw the first word.
"Let's have the best match that suits the end."
A troublemaker who throws a word to the top student about having a great competition.
Usually, even a passing dog would not look at such a scene.
But not now. Because everyone has seen what kind of miracle has brought us here so far.
Elaine, having heard those words, just stared at without an answer.
I couldn't tell what she was thinking, but her gaze seed to pierce through . I calmly received that gaze. Because there is no one who can read minds anyway.
"Okay "
Eventually, she answered briefly. To think she would even answer that Max like that, she's indeed a good person.
"Here you go."
The teaching assistant handed each of us a pen.
It was a magic pen that could write in the air.
It seed to an that we should write the answer with it. We stood apart at a distance as guided by the teaching assistants.
Even so, cheating was entirely possible, but no one would be crazy enough to cheat while everyone was watching with their eyes wide open.
"You have one minute."
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.
As soon as the teaching assistant finished speaking, Elaine began writing the solution in the air at a fast pace.
She was the most frightening in the examination room. Because if there is such a kid around, the others get intimidated and beco anxious, increasing the likelihood that they won't be able to perform to their full potential.
But I am different. Because I have sothing to rely on.
'Listen properly. Properly, properly.'
Riviera, emphasizing over and over again in case I heard wrong and she couldn't drink the tears of Frost.
Ah, my ears hurt. The teaching assistants and the other team mbers looked dumbfounded as if they saw a performance.
But regardless, Riviera finally began to explain the solution. I concentrated and wrote down the solution without missing a single number.
Swoosh, swoosh.
A feast of numbers and formulas I didn't know at all. I didn't care and neatly finished writing until the end. To anyone looking, it seed like I perfectly knew the answer.
"I'm done."
Without hesitation, I returned the pen to the teaching assistant.
"It's done."
Almost simultaneously, Elaine also finished writing.
'Huh?'
A small doubt crept into my eyes.
She started first, but we finished around the sa ti. Did I write the letters too quickly? I tilted my head and sneakily looked at her answer.
And,
"Huh."
I blinked in surprise. Because at first glance, the answer I wrote was different. It was different right from the start.
'…How could this be?'
In the original flow, the only team that always got a perfect score on the last question was Elaine's team. So there was no possibility that her answer was wrong.
That ans…
'This side is wrong? How could that be?'
This is Riviera's answer.
Who is Riviera?
She is the only successor to blood magic. There was no doubt about her level of magic.
Although she couldn't get certified by the magic tower because she was a user of forbidden magic, she was definitely master class.
There's no way her answer could be wrong… right?
Even though I thought it was impossible, I beca anxious at the end. What I trust more than anything are the facts that happened or occurred in the ga.
Judging by that,
Elaine's perfect score is a verified fact. On the other hand, Riviera's answer is still an unknown.
'Damn, sothing weird is going on?'
Seeing the expression of my anxiety, the other guys seed to be sure of their victory.
"It's done, it's done!"
"Uhm, Bingseol! Finally, you're coming to this sister! I've always wanted to see you, Bingseol!"
Why do you personify alcohol?
"You've been through a lot, team leader, don't worry too much. It's okay."
Sunny, with an enlightened face, comforted as if to say I had worked hard.
Huh? Look at this guy, not stuttering?
Has his ntal already run away?
As I glared at him, his true intentions soon erged.
"It's not sothing to brag about, but my family has a history as a martial house, and we have our own techniques for removing bad energy. Of course, it's a ti consuming and labor intensive task, so only the direct bloodline can benefit from it. So I'm fine… Ack!"
Get lost, you tactless guy. I body checked his shoulder. That's why you get your position taken away by your younger sibling.
No. Is this guy doing this on purpose?
"No, no, it's absolutely not."
As if reading my eyes, he desperately shook his head, saying it was absolutely not.
"Hmm."
I decided to let it go. If this guy had been normal, he wouldn't have lost the head of the family position to his younger sibling, right?
So this guy is not normal. He's a pitiful guy, so let's just let it go.
"Huhuhu."
Ah, you startled .
Riviera was standing right behind , letting out an unpleasant laugh with only her mouth smiling. Of course, she seems to think that's a natural smile, but
"What?"
"Well done."
It was the first complint I heard from her. It feels strange to receive such praise from a nad boss. And with that, What does this praise an?
There's no need to think about it. She is 100% confident in her answer.
That ans...
'Could there be two answers?
If that's the case, then the current situation is explained. As I thought that, I saw Elaine.
'Hmm?'
Her expression was peculiar. She seed calm as usual, but there was a feeling that she was forcibly hiding confusion. She blinked faster than usual and slightly bit the tip of her mouth.
I didn't miss that small change.
Because I know her too well, separate from the current ssed up relationship, I could tell.
She is currently flustered.
But why?
As I thought that, I noticed her gaze was directed at our answer. The fact that she was flustered after seeing Riviera's answer.
'Is this it?'
I don't know what's going on, but judging by Elaine's reaction, the correct answer was on this side. Could it be that the flow has changed, and the last question has changed? It wasn't supposed to be a change that could have such an effect.
Anyway, there was only one way to find out.
"Everyone worked hard. Now, let's start the evaluation."
