The Peace In A Beautiful World
Chapter 148: Testing in the Wild

The next morning at 08:00.

We were all gathering in front of the Duke's gate while waiting for Master Alan to come out of the residence. Earlier this morning, at about 6:00, Mr. Alan went first to the Duke's residence to take care of this final exam.

"Why weren't we told to go into the residence ? Even being told to wait at the front gate, What is the test of the last day we did not do in the residence?" asked Noa.

"Come," I said.

Then Lord Alan, Commander Marshall and the other Duke soldiers appeared from within the residence. This time there was no Duke Darwin accompanying them.

"Are all the first-year students here already and no one is left in the inn?" asked Mr. Alan.

We looked around to check on our friend.

"There is no master" said the disciples.

"Alright, then I'll explain about this final test,"

"Do you know what's behind the Duke's residence ? more precisely the one outside the back gate of the Duke's residence" said Mr. Alan.

"There are meadows, mountains but smaller ones are also said to be mountains, maybe hills, there are rivers, forests and others, sir," said one of the disciples.

"You are right, at the back of the Duke's residence there are hills, forests, rivers, fields and others that if totaled have an area of about 300 hectares. Your final exam will be held at that place" said Mr. Alan.

The students were surprised to hear that.

"The test in that place ?,"

"That means we're going to do a test in the wild?" asked the disciples.

"True, this last test you will be doing in the wild that is behind the Duke's residence" said Mr. Alan.

Then Mr. Alan took something in his pocket.

"Do you know this?" asked Mr. Alan, pointing out something he had taken from his pocket.

"That's a medal right?" said one of the students.

"True, this is a medal. This was just an ordinary medal made of iron. In this exam, you must collect the same medals as these in the wild. One medal is worth 200 points and the maximum points you can get in this exam is 4000 points, which means if you want to get the maximum points you have to get 20 medals on the exam this time,"

"At first you will all be ushered by these soldiers to your starting point. Your starting point is different, some of you start from the side of the forest and some of you start from the side of the hills and others. To start the test so that you can directly search for the medal simultaneously even though your location is different, we will launch a magic attack into the sky and it becomes a sign to immediately start the medal search exam,"

"The test time limit is until 6pm. If you've already earned 20 medals before that hour, you can directly deliver the medals to the back gate of the Duke's residence. We will not give you a map so you will have to find the gate of the residence itself. If you have trouble finding the gate of the residence, you can stay there and wait until picked up by the soldiers. If until 6 pm you only collect makeshift medals, then the points you get will be calculated based on the medals you get but you will not get perfect points. Understand ?," said Mr. Alan.

"Understand me, sir," said the disciples.

The students seemed to understand Mr. Alan's explanation.

"It looks like it's going to be an easy test,"

"True, we only have to find 20 medals and the time limit is also quite long" said the student who was chatting.

"There is still another explanation" said Mr. Alan.

"There's more ?,"

"I thought it was all, I guess" said the students who were a little surprised to hear that there was still another explanation.

"Medali scattered in the wild only amounted to 2000 medals. The number of all first-year students is 200 which means there should be 4000 medals available for each student to get 20 medals. If only 2000 medals, only 100 people can get 20 medals and the remaining 100 people do not get any medals,"

"The medallions you can meet at the bottom of the river, on the tree, behind the bush and others. But of course looking for all the medals is not easy. There are other ways to get a medal than to look for it in the wild" Alan said.

"What is mister?" asked one of the disciples.

"That's beating the other students who have medals and snatching their medals" replied Mr. Alan.

Hearing that, the disciples were surprised.

"You can also form a team with other students to find medals but still the medal itself. If you make a team of two, then you need 40 medals to get you both perfect points,"

"Because the exam will be held until 6pm, you might miss lunch. You can eat whatever is in the wild whether it is fruits, plants or animals that exist. But the risk of poisoning from eating wild food is borne by you alone,"

"One more thing. In addition to being aware of other students who might attack you, you also have to be aware of the wild animals that exist in the wild or the monsters that are there. When me and the other soldiers put medals in the wild, we saw some monsters like slimes, small herds of goblins, Planta and Blom. Even though they are low-level monsters, they are quite dangerous for disciples like you so you have to be careful. Do you understand?" asked Mr. Alan.

"Understand me, sir," said the disciples.

Most of the disciples felt uneasy and afraid of this test after hearing the continued explanation from Master Alan. At first they thought that this exam would be easy but in the end they were aware of the dangers of this exam, moreover they would start the exam with different locations.

"If you understand and have no more questions. Let's start the test immediately, the soldiers will take you to different locations and after arriving at your location, wait for the magic cue from us" said Mr. Alan.

"Okay, sir," said the disciples.

-

We were all transported by the soldiers to different locations. I was ushered by a soldier into the forest behind the Duke's residence. There were some disciples who were also taken to the forest but we were still placed in different spots.

After that, I reached the spot that became my starting point. The spot I placed was at a remote point within the forest, completely silent at that place.

I also wait for the magic aba-aba will be done by Mr. Alan and other teachers. After a while, some magic was launched into the sky which was a sign of the start of the test. I originally wanted to directly search for the medal after the magic was launched, but there was other business that I had to sort out.

"Hey, sir. Isn't every student accompanied by only one soldier to go to the intended spot?," I asked the soldier who accompanied me to my spot.

The soldier was still near me to make sure I started the exam according to the magic cue.

"That's right" said the soldier.

"Then why are there so many soldiers around me who look to be surrounding me?" I asked.

"Oh so you already know yes," said the soldier.

The other soldiers who were originally hiding on top of the tree and behind the tree began to approach me.

"Do you have this much to finish off a disciple?" asked a soldier.

"Just do it, it's Master Duke's order" said another soldier.

"I'm sorry we are. We have no personal problems with you but we are just carrying out orders" said the soldier I previously fought in the first and second day exams.

He was also in the group of soldiers that surrounded me. Seeing the soldiers start to approach me, I immediately prepared my sword.

"It is better that you do not fight, after all what can you do with the sword of the academy?," asked the soldier who was previously my opponent.

~Enhance Weapon : Sharp~

I increased the sharpness on the sword I was wearing.

"I had expected this to happen. During my time at the Duke's residence, I always felt like someone was watching me. I also know that I want to be finished here after reading the minds of the soldiers who accompanied me" I said.

"Then if you know about it, why do you keep following him?" asked one of the soldiers.

"Of course to take care of you too. I'm following the soldier because I'm sure I can clear this up. If I don't clean it up now, it will be a problem in the future" I said.

"You're so arrogant, boy," said the other soldier.

They are getting closer to me too.

"You put me in this spot so no one knows you're going to finish me off. But this also applies to me, this spot will make me unknown when it will finish you off,"

"I have never killed anyone before. It seems like this will be the first time I kill people" I said as I prepared to strike with my sword.
