Outside the tower, red smoke had already risen from all over the back of the forest.

Apparently they had already thrown in, just before they gathered on the ground floor and the instructors explained.

Hmmm...... this sight of red smoke rising from the woods is like a fire and it doesn't feel good to watch.

But if this is all that stands out, you'll soon find it.

... Still, isn't there a lot of smoke coming out of the depths?

I haven't even seen how it goes down to the depths of the woods yet, but it's a pretty deep forest.

Besides, it's a course for St. Patrol Bulls (Angie Yaga) to walk on - thank goodness that giant bull keeps walking on certain routes all the time. Records show hundreds of years. It's an act that is mysterious but doesn't make any more sense than that.

Well, anyway.

If it's deep, it's home to demons, too.

I didn't encounter it yesterday, but I'm finding traces of giant organisms. I think there are demons for sure.

We arrived at the Bryn Tower yesterday and the next day we were already in training.

I knew you still lacked information... it's not very good to go into the back of the woods in this state.

But I just have to do it.

Besides, there is also the idea that it makes sense to do it, rather because it is now an "unfamiliar forest I am not familiar with".

It's a familiar forest if you get used to it.

Because my feelings and vigilance really change when I first come in. Maybe you want me to do it before it changes.

But, well, maybe this is too much to think about.

"Hey, zero points! Are you a good cook?

Bad eyed boys get involved. Uh, this guy's a Hariatan.

"Why don't you lose and you'll be on cooking duty, while you still can!?

Meshi's schedule tonight?

- Yesterday I hunted Oroji, drained and judged, wrapped in odour-repellent vanilla and leaves for preservation, tied and placed.

Sleeping a little softens the flesh and gives it a distinctive flavor with an originally low odor.

You can already eat that one.

…………

All right, if we lose, let's split it up to everyone as cooking duty.

It's a large area of more than ten people, so I'll eat it up with one meal, but that's fine.

If I win, I'll cook it outside and eat it alone.

I'd also like to do a study of the mixed salt of vanilla I ate at the hunting festival, so it's bird BBQ by itself! Hunters are good because they can do this easily.

"... Keh! Ignore me!

Huh? Oh,... yeah.

"Ahaha, I'm no match for you"

"What is it? You're suddenly scared!... Oh, you didn't ignore me in the first place, did you!?

Teacher Evanesque is staring at you.

"Eh."

I was just distracted by an ill-eyed boy,

"Hmm...?

"Never mind."

Quickly, I tried to hide in the shadow of Berge, the big man who was nearby.

"- So, let's start training today! Go!"

Lightly explained the contents of the training again, and the training began with instructor Yorgo's decree.

Everyone goes into the woods at once.

I dropped him off normally.

... I see.

- Are you guys going?

When the decree comes out and you're looking at the woods without moving, instructor Yorgo speaks up... hmm? You guys?

At first glance, a dark-haired Oriental...... Schren was looking at the woods in the same way.

……

Schren glanced at me and the instructor with a sharp eye and gently lowered his head to the instructor and ran to the woods.

Ooh... Hydra was right, he sure is fast. It quickly disappears into the woods and signs turn away at a considerable rate.

"Then I'll be there, too."

And I disappeared into the woods.

"Ah, Ayle."

…………

I didn't think you'd be talking to me at this time. Instructor Solitica.

The stepped out leg stopped, and looking back, Instructor Solitica was laughing at me with her blurred eyes.

"I hate it, but I want chica today. Then get it."

…………

It's amazing that you can say that at this time. Look, the other instructors are surprised. What are you talking about? This guy still looks like he's going to say it. I may not be on your face either, but I'm surprised enough.

I'm going to train.

Technically, I'm already in training.

I say things that add more challenges to my training.

"Uh... have you been eating lately?

Instructor Solitica is the type of person who doesn't eat much.

When I was in Heidiga, and when I moved to the assassin's village, I grasp it because we used to eat together, but now I wonder.

It's easier to get sick if you don't get nourished.

As a former apprentice, I am still worried.

It's an incredible race not to have to eat meat in the first place, always from me wanting to eat meat. Maybe that's why I'm extra worried.

"I'm just eating a little. I like chica today."

Oh, really?

"I'll do it right."

I just can't make any promises though.

But at the request of the former master, the former disciple only asks as much as he can.

If I find it, I'll look for the Wolf Smoke Ball and then I'll try to target it.

That's how only one of us went into the woods late.

Think as you climb a tree and run over branches.

- Schren, huh?

He must have thought the same way I did.

There are ten wolf smokes and fourteen participants.

Normally, ten passes training and four cannot be secured.

Needless to say, it is the early winner.

The question is, how do we aim?

Just run the shortest in a straight line to make sure?

Perhaps many will.

If you dare name it, the fastest group will. You seemed like a cat beast or something.

So, how about an untargeted wolf smokeball?

Target a wolf smokeball that's not being targeted by anyone, for example. I dare aim for the furthest wolf smokeball, or something.

With that in mind, I still get here.

And I think Shren thought the same thing about me.

If they discover or secure it with a candidate nearby, they'll set it up to take the Wolf Smoke Ball.

He said the way to get a wolf smokeball was freedom.

Then I don't think it would be strange if someone made the idea of "taking it away".

He collides when he finds it, he collides when he secures it, he collides on the way home, he collides in an ambush near the tower.

This is all the "possibility of being robbed" that comes to mind.

Neither looking nor securing can be said to be "fastest" right.

All the candidates have already proven their strength to be here.

Turn it on one of your enemies and it will be quite a hassle.

I think it's pretty bad, especially when one of them is around Hydra, Lisse, Eolazel and Sash.

The Ments around there don't fight, it's hard to even get away.

You're not excelling at one ability, you're highly overarching. Oh, because only Sash specializes in foot speed.

To the best of my knowledge, of course. There may be other troublemakers.

The cat beast man in the example should certainly be highly capable of exercising.

Though the ideal takes the form of sneaking in and sneaking back to the tower without anyone finding out.

Whether or not you will allow it is a different matter.

So I dared to let them go first, observe them, and choose the means to go in the direction they hadn't.

Schren, too, from the direction he's headed, the idea is the same.

If it stays this way, it is possible to secure it without anyone finding out.

The problem is the trend after securing...

…………

Yeah, well, I came up with a plan.

I guess I'll try my best.
