Alexander looked at the list of heroes
Through this list, you can see the classification of all participants and the number of points they collected, and thus you can know the number of people they killed
There was a name at the top of the list that shone like a star and overshadowed the rest of the names
Daniel Armayo
This person had received forty-two points even though it had not been more than an hour since the test began
"...." The Hell?
I only got twenty points
Are you saying that this person earned that number of points honorably?
Alexander had reached the eighth rank, however, there was still a long way for him to reach the second rank
That his real enemy is the person in second place
Edward Baldwin
"....." Where did these people come from?
This is the first time he hears this name
That boy in first rank had the name 'Armayo' and seemed to be a descendant of the human hero. So Alexander could understand how this person could have such power
But what about this Edward and to what power does he belong?
Alexander shook his head to clear his mind and began to think about his next steps
His plan was going well but how long could he continue?
Twenty-two of his bombs were already lost and two of his hunting traps were destroyed
He was suffering greatly from a lack of resources
But he had no other choice, because he was unable to burden himself with large quantities of explosives and traps, so he was forced to take a limited number of items.
Every time he loses a new bomb, it is like a brick falling from his impregnable fortress
Now he has to rush in and start confronting his prey face to face
Craaak!
Alexander heard a loud sound coming from the cave entrance
He gathered his weapons and moved cautiously towards the entrance
He saw a girl struggling to untie the ropes that bound her
Alexander narrowed his eyes
He was able to recognize this girl
Isn't that Miranda or whatever her name is?
She's one of those annoying kids who hangs out with Lily
He looked at his surroundings warily
Where are her party members?
But even though a full minute had passed, no one had appeared to help Miranda
"..." Is it possible that she came here alone?
Alexander came out and approached Miranda confidently
"Kuh...damn." Miranda was struggling to tear these metal ropes, but the problem was that her body was currently weak
She was strong. Even though she was shocked with strong electricity that was enough to paralyze an ordinary person, she was able to endure this and was still able to move even though this electric shock had made her at her weakest state.
She cursed the person who put this thing in this place
What sane person would use this thing in combat?
Do the laws even allow this?
Miranda heard footsteps approaching her
She turned her gaze towards that person and saw that it was Alexander

"Alexander Ford..." Miranda whispered.
"Good morning, Miss Miranda..." Alexander greeted her as if he were greeting a friend he had not met for several years.
"I should have known it was you. You are the only one who would use such cheap tricks." Miranda said scornfully
"Oh, your praise makes me feel ashamed." Alexander covered his cheeks and said in a shy voice
"..." Is this considered a compliment?
Alexander stood in front of Miranda, who was lying on the ground, looking at her with amusement
Miranda gritted her teeth. "Fight me honorably if you dare."
"Honor? What is this? Can it be eaten or drunk?" Alexander took no notice of her words and continued. "Miss Miranda, I don't know how to break these chains, so how about I kill you and get the point for myself? Giving a point to someone you know is better than giving it to a stranger, don't you think?"
"...." What is this strange logic?
Aren't we enemies?
Why would I even think about giving you the point?
Miranda realized that she would not be able to escape from Alexander's hands today
She deeply regretted that she decided to come here alone
She noticed a person walking around alone in this area, so she decided to go and eliminate him quickly and return to her party
She trusted her strength. Among the first-year students, only Lily can defeat her, and even Lily will not be able to stop her if she decides to run away
She faced some second-year students and was able to win against some of them, and even the duels that she did not win ended in a draw. This is what gained her such confidence.
If her enemy is weak, she will gain a free point, if he is strong, she can escape from him, and if he chases her, she can lure him to the location where her party is camping so that they can surround him and eliminate him.
But she didn't expect someone to set such a trap
Miranda looked at Alexander's face filled with sarcasm
His provocative smile almost drove her crazy
She took a deep breath and calmed her mind
If this is her end, she must not let her opponent enjoy this victory
Miranda mustered the widest smile she could muster and said sarcastically. "You look relaxed for someone whose head will soon be blown off."
" What?."
"Oh...so you don't know." Miranda said amusedly. "Lily swore she would blow your head out on this test and all the first year students are helping her look for you."
A shiver ran through Alexander's body
The thought of being chased by that crazy girl who couldn't control her power was like a nightmare
Her physical strength was far superior to his
If he decided to confront her directly and fairly, his head would truly be blown off
I don't want my head to be blown off
In this case he must initiate the attack
Eat your enemy for lunch before he eats you for dinner
"Hahaha..." Miranda laughed when she saw the smile disappear from Alexander's face and be replaced by a serious expression. " you are dead..."
Alexander looked at the blue sky with deep eyes and said after a moment of silence. "Miss Miranda, have you ever thought about what it feels like to have your entire body blown up?"
"....." Why would I even think about such a thing?
A bad feeling began to take over Miranda's mind
Alexander returned his gaze to Miranda and said with a smile. "I think that means no. But it's your lucky day because you get to experience this feeling."
Alexander carried Miranda in his hands like a princess and entered the cave
"What are you doing? Let me go, you pervert." Miranda tried to resist him, but she was much weaker than Alexander, who was at full strength
Alexander suddenly stood up and looked at a certain spot on the ground. "Are you ready?"
"Ready for what?"
She began to worry about what Alexander was planning to do to her
"One...two...three..." Alexander threw Miranda into the air and then started running away
"Huh...?" Miranda did not understand what was happening until the last minute
Baaaam!
A huge explosion shook the place and Miranda's body turned into flakes of light
Alexander, who was hiding behind a large rock, came out and headed towards the explosion site. "I lost two bombs, but it's strangely satisfying."
Suddenly he noticed that he was being watched from behind
He quickly turned around and took a defensive stance
But there was no person behind him. Instead, there was a purple ball floating several meters high that contained many golden lines and a black lens directed towards him.
Is this a camera that broadcasts what is happening in this world to the outside world? .....This is what Alexander thought when he saw this thing
Alexander smiled and made the victory sign in front of the camera
----------------------
What did we just see?
This is what all members of the Academy Council thought, who were present inside a huge hall with the team of technicians and administrators who were controlling the cameras that broadcast the scenes from within the virtual world.
The viewership rate was incredibly high and the eyes of the whole world were directed towards this event
Especially after showing fights as interesting as the fight between Lily Cloud and Daniel Armayo
Or Edward Baldwin's unparalleled skill that netizens started calling him the 'King of the Sword'.
Even the academy instructors were satisfied with these fights that showed the level of the golden generation
But they didn't have to focus only on these students, they should show scenes of other students' fights to give everyone a chance to showcase their talents to the world.
Suddenly, a scene appeared on the screen of a girl bound with metal ropes emerging from a strange device. She seemed to be struggling to break free from her chains, while a young man stood in front of her, looking at her sarcastically.
Although the viewers did not know the identity of this young man, the coaches recognized him immediately
This young man was Alexander Ford
The first-year instructors got to know Miranda because she was one of their most prominent students
But what is this device?
Suddenly Alexander picked up Miranda and entered the cave
"..." What does this boy intend to do?
He knows that this event is broadcast throughout the world, right?
The instructors prayed that Alexander wouldn't do one of his crazy things
"Follow him…" Frederic, who was sitting in front, ordered coldly
The camera moved behind Alexander slowly
Alexander stopped moving, then threw Miranda into the air and started running to hide
When Miranda's body touched the ground, a huge explosion occurred and Miranda's entire body exploded
"..." The instructors opened their mouths
What is the source of this explosion?
They have seen fighters cut or stab their enemies, but this is the first time they have seen such a method.
Isn't blowing up your enemy to pieces a little exaggerated?
While everyone's mind was occupied with these questions, Alexander looked at the camera, made the victory sign with his hand, and smiled brightly
"...." Why do you look so proud of what you did?
