By the way there is no school today, the school starts from sunday which is 5 days later.
“Why did you let us enter today then?”
“”I want you guys to enter the exam so I can bet on you and earn money.””
“How much will I get?”
“”25% of the total””
“Make it 45% of the total.”
“”Deal!””
“Deal”
We both go in and repeat the same process we had to do in the first exam.
We were all kept in a building.
“So it’s going to be a duo game again?”
‘I hope so.’
The supervisor comes and tells us to form a team of three instead of two.
“Wait, what,why?”
“No no no I can’t talk to people. Zero go and get us a person.”
When I said that to zero he was already in the corner of the room.
‘What am I supposed to do? I can’t talk to other people either.’
We both stayed in a corner for a few minutes and saw a guy getting rejected for every team.
“Yo Zero”
‘Huh?’
“Go ask that guy who is getting rejected by every girl in this room.”
‘wha-Why me, you go.’
‘No’
“He does have a dress like us but the color is grey instead of black.”
‘Why are we talking about their dress?’
‘Ahem, go Akuma talk to him or else we won’t be able to win any money.’
“MONEY. Phew gotta be relaxed.”
I try to calm myself down and try to approach him.
While I was going towards him I bumped into many people and had to apologize to everyone.
I reach him and ask him if he wanted to join our team
As we talk the teacher appears in the class and makes us a team.
We all are guided towards an open area.
Zero comes towards me and looks at me with a shock.
Did all things go well?
“Somehow”
“Why is this guy still biting my head”
“”I wanted to be in a girls team and be famous but now I am with these two idiots.””
“Huh?”
‘Huh?’
“You can talk to others?”
‘You can talk to others?’
We both ask him at the same tone with surprised faces.
“”Umm Yea, Everyone can.””
“Well anyways you have such a nice stats you could have probably came second in the first exam how did you not get into the school?”
“”I don’t want to talk about that.””
“Oh! OK.”
“Can you stop biti-”
SO WELCOME STUDENTS
The principal comes once again and explains us the rules
This exam has nothing to do with violence since you guys are supposed to collect medicinal herbs that are around here within 3 days and the team with the most amount of herbs will win.
The three of us get teleported to an unknown location and the moment we spawned the bets was placed on Zero and Me
“Yay Money”
“So what is your name?”
“”Me? My name is Kai””
“So kai, can you stop biting my head?”
“”Oops my bad.””
‘So what are we going to do?’
“Collect herbs?”
‘Well ya but how are we going to know if it's a herb or not?’
“Umm, IDK we will just pick up any plant we see.”
While we were both talking together Kai had already started picking herbs.
We kept discussing for over 10 minutes on basically nothing but kai was still collecting.
This story originates from Royal Road. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.
“Even though he is crazy for girls he still does his work nicely.”
We both noticed Kai collecting and helped him.
After collecting for over 3 hours we were all tired and decided to rest.
I wanted to store all the herbs in the inventory but since I hadn’t told anyone about it I kept quiet.
Let's build a place to sleep
I build the house while Zero goes to kill some animals to eat and kai guards the herbs we collected.
We all eat and then go to sleep.
We spent the second day in the same process and kept on collecting the herbs and decided to stick to the same role since I didn’t have to do much work other than building a house.
While we were going to sleep, Kai decided to guard for a bit since he needs to pass this exam and not mess up like before.
We both agree and go to sleep
Tomorrow morning when we both woke up we found Kai had already woken up and was collecting herbs.
“Good morning, how are you up so early?”
“”I-I nevermind I am going to collect some herbs.””
‘I think we collected plenty yesterday and the day before yesterday so all we need is to guard.’
“Apparently he got scammed.”
“”Ho-how do you know that?””
“Seems like I was right.”
‘Huh? Hey you, how did you lose all those?’
Zero was very angry at him
He explains the situation to us.
“Well so, Few girls came and you basically got tricked by them and they took your herbs?”
“”Yea,””
“Were you the one who initiated to talk with or they came to talk to you?”
““It was them.””
“Are you sure?”
I say it in a rather different tone,
““I am sorry, It was actually me.””
“I also forgot to ask but did you even try to stop them while they took our herbs?”
“”No, She said that she would go on a date with me if I gave her all the herbs so I agreed.””
‘Poor guy got scammed.’
Zero and I burst out laughing.
We both keep on laughing to the point where kai starts to cry
“Huh?”
‘Yo don’t cry’
“Do something Zero, you were the one who made fun of him.”
‘Huh what wait, I mean’
‘Don’t cry kai, we will search for it together.’
“Ya Kai don't cry, we will find it together.”
We both try our best even though we don’t even know how to talk to each other
“”But I- *Sniff*””
“Don’t cry.”
We both spend another hour trying to calm him down.
“So what do both of them look like?”
“”One of them was an elf and another was a human.””
“”The elf had a green dress with a hammer and the human girl had a book and a purple dress.””
“Did they have any of THAT?”
“”What THAT? I mean their body was go-””
“Wait wait wait I am talking about money.”
“”Oh! about money I don’t think so.””
“They are useless.”
“”Who would carry money in a herbs collecting exam?””
“Me”
“I got around 2 million seol with me.”
“”2 million? Are you rich or something?””
“I am :)”
‘Let's find the team and get them back first’
All three of us wander around for some time and meet them.
As soon as Kai sees them he pushes us behind.
“”Give me back my herbs.””
The girls reply back saying
Don’t you want to go on a date after the exam is over?
“”Of course I want to.””
While they were talking both Zero and I got thrown away and we were listening to his bullshit.
“Can he see your stats Zero?”
‘Yes he can’
“How? It’s like 2 million short on TSV.”
‘Oh there is a pattern for you to see the stats of others’
“What’s that?”
‘So basically’
‘The digit can see the others in the same digit.’
“Huh? That explanation is so bad.”
‘I mean If you have a Million TSV then you can see the stats of a person who has 10 million TSV or lower.’
‘If you have 10 million TSV you can look up to 100 million TSV.’‘
‘100 million can loop up to 500 million and 500 million can look up to a billion.’
“OHH, Thank you for the knowledge sir.”
“Now how do we deal with this shit?”
‘ We can kill them right now and take back the herbs.’
“No.”
“Lets leave, They have higher stats than us.”
I say it in a loud voice and grab both Zero and kai and leave from there
While we were leaving, Kai reminded them to not forget about the date.
We get a rope and hang kai upside down and go to collect herbs.
We pass the exam with flying colors.
We went back to the receptionist and took our money.
“Zero are we forgetting something?”
‘If you forgot it then it's basically not that important right?’
“You might be correct.”
While we were leaving the receptionist called us and asked where the third guy was.
“Oh shit”
We bring him back and the first thing he says
“”My DATE””
“This guy”
I make a plan and tell it to Zero and I go to get the money for the food while he is doing the work.
‘So let's meet those girls who said to take you on a date.’
“”YES YES””
Kai and Zero look for them and after searching for a few minutes they find them.
Zero was so focused on the plan that he forgot he couldn’t have a conversation with others properly.
Zero holds kai and hides as soon as he sees them and panics.
While Kai was trying to get to them Zero held him tightly.
While both of them were fighting the girls started bringing the topic about what they said to kai
“Hey, what do you think is going to happen about the kid that you told you would go on a date with?”
Zero holds Kai and makes him quiet as they talk and Kai calms down as they start talking about him.
“Haha that boy who gave us all the herbs?”
“Who would go on a date with a loser like him.”
‘I know right he gave us that herb so fast after we held him that we would go on a date later.’
“Such an idiot, I would rather die than go on a date with him.”
Kai got heartbroken as soon as he heard that.
He was just 15 years old but was very delicate inside as he respected and tried his best to make others fall in love with him.
Zero also snaps when he heard those words.
Kai doesn't want to stay anymore so he tells Zero to go but he had already pointed a sword at the girls.
‘You would rather die than go on a date with him.’
Zero asks her.
“Haha don’t you know we are the strongest here.”
Saying that the elf tries to get her bow but before that Zero cuts her hand.
“Huh?”
The half portion of the hand falls down as it was sliced very fast and accurately
“HELP, MY HAND”
She screams while the girl behind her tries to heal her.
I reach Kai and see him very sad.
I understood what had happened since I had read so many manga during these two years.
“Don’t mind Kai.”
I look for Zero and see him cutting an elf's hand.
“Hey ZERO, Let’s go.”
‘Oh! You are back?’
The girl that was behind the one that was healing the elf tries to look at my stats and she shoots towards me.
I catch the bullet without looking and tell zero to go somewhere else.
Zero agrees with me and we both grab kai and get out of there.
