Hunter Academy: Revenge of the Weakest novel Chapter 30

Chapter 30 Chapter 8.1 - Art Manual

-------------------------

[Team 13]

Time elapsed: 34 Minutes 12 Seconds – 20/600

-------------------------

20th team out of 600.

This was the panel that appeared when Irina clicked on her smartwatch.

'What is this? We would be ranked?' Seeing this immediately, a question arose from the hearts of Irina.

'Fuck. If I knew it would be ranked, I wouldn't have played with that wolf.'

Since it was a rank three monster, at first, she thought this would be hard. But after fighting with the monster for a while, she realized it didn't pose much of a threat, so she wanted to play with it to test her magic, and as time passed on, she was having so much fun that she forgot she was even in an exam.

'I feel stupid now.' Irina thought. No matter how careless she was, it was blatantly her mistake, and inside her heart, she knew it.

But she was still annoyed to the point where she wanted to smash those trees and burn them alive.

Because the rank 20 was something she would never be satisfied with. After all, she was the third rank student in this academy, and she was the second strongest here. Thus, this score was unacceptable for her.

At that moment, she saw a person amongst the trees.

'Hmm? This guy is here?' She had completely ignored his existence. After all, he was just worthless trash who didn't deserve to breathe the same air as people like her. Those talentless dogs like him were the reason why she needed to step up like that all the time.

Her gaze wandered around him. He was breathing heavily as if he had just fought his life's battle. In fact, it looked like he had a battle since a little body of the Lesser Galewind Wolf.

'He even struggled against a rank-two monster. What a pathetic bastard.' The moment she saw his face, she grew more annoyed.

If it was another person, they would probably reach there faster, and they might even get an idea about this time score. She was already feeling angry, and now her anger stiffened.

And that bastard turned his gaze to her for a second, matching her gaze with his own. But it was only a brief moment since after that he turned and started walking back.

'He ignored me!' She grew more and more annoyed at that fact as her gaze followed his back, glaring daggers at him.

The other two, who were panting slightly, decided to say nothing as it was obvious that her mood was not great, and she thanked them for that since she didn't want to deal with flattery right now.

"Let's return."

Just like that, they started walking back as well. And since they were faster than that bastard at the entrance of the dungeon, they caught him.

At that moment, she couldn't help but want to turn all the attention to him. After all, she wanted someone to shift the blame.

So she shouted while calling out to him. She asked why he was standing and not helping others, making it look like she was not the one who ignored him in the first place.

"At least fight like a man!"

Knowing that most of the males would get mad over such words, she decided to press his buttons.

At least she tried to.

Since the response she got was nothing like she was expecting.

"Don't talk to me."

A simple cold answer that didn't contain any ounce of emotion. Cold purple eyes that were empty.

"What?"

She was really surprised, not expecting such a response. Irina Emberheart was getting ignored like that? No way.

But it happened.

That bastard just said if he did something wrong, he would see it on his grades. And it was logical.

Which was what made her more annoyed. Because she couldn't fight it back, and just as she was about to call him back, the instructor came and started explaining to everyone how the grading process was going to happen.

All right, listen up, cadets. The dungeon exploration is over, and it's time for the grading procedure. You will all be evaluated based on various criteria, including teamwork, combat effectiveness, adaptability, and problem-solving skills."

But she didn't listen to that intensively since she was thinking about something else.

'Astron Natusalune….' It was at that moment his name entered her head with a bad impression.

'Next time, I will let you see who is the boss.' Though she was annoyed, it was not like she was going to bully a lowlife like him.

She was not like those other bastards after all. But still, she swore to herself that next time in a competition, she would humiliate that bastard.

And seeing that Julia smiling ear to ear while laughing with her team made her more mad. Since her ears were able to hear that her team was ranked 8th overall….

***********

The moment I left the Artificial dungeon, I made my way toward the library of the academy.

The reason why was simple. Because I wanted to grab a bunch of books related to mana control and also look for a simple hidden easter egg.

Now, I want you to look for a developer's perspective and think about an easter egg type of manual.
