Phil House.

After the lively dinner, Mick did not return to Calvin's laboratory, according to Calvin, he had a very important experiment to do in the past few days, so even Ming was kicked out of the laboratory by Calvin and had to live in the living room of the Fielder Building temporarily.

Just as Mick wanted to discuss today's game with Kenneth, he found that Kenneth was no longer in the living room. Mona knew he was looking for Kenneth when she saw Mick probing his brain, so she pointed upstairs and said, "I think I'm looking for Marcas, right?" ”

Mick raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect Kenneth to be so interested in Marcus, after all, Mick had already learned about Marcus's personality from the mouths of other people in the dormitory, so he could only keep a respectful attitude towards Marcus.

Because he didn't want to go back to the room for the time being, Mick sat on the sofa on the right side to read a book, while the girls nestled on the big sofa to read novels or fashion magazines, Kevin had already gone back to the room to review, and Brandon and Ming were still there at the table to sweep up the leftovers on the table, Auston looked at the two of them with an apron in his hand, and said to Brandon: "It's your turn to wash the dishes today, don't forget!" ”

Brandon whimpered as he swallowed the food in his mouth, and only nodded to Alston to indicate that he knew. Auston was barely accustomed to Brandon's ungraceful eating, nodded to him, and walked back to the kitchen to make himself a cup of coffee before sitting on the couch and reading the newspaper.

"Mick, it seems that your opponent today is a third-year senior?" Suddenly, Mona put down the magazine, looked at Mick and asked.

Although Mick doesn't spend much time with everyone, but with his excellent magician strength and gentle personality, Mick has a good relationship with the other roommates in the Phil Building, and when he saw Mona asking him, Mick replied very naturally: "That's right, it's a third-year senior named Mark." ”

"We've seen you play against him outside, and he doesn't seem to be Mick's opponent at all?" Mona said with great interest. Although Mona is a girl, she prefers combat magic to healing magic, so her interest in magical combat is significantly higher than that of the other two girls.

Mick shook his head modestly and said, "Senior Mark is a very good third-order mage of the wind system, and it is only a fluke that I can win." ”

It's just that Lisa has a different opinion on this, and although her face is expressionless, the meaning of her words obviously disagrees with what Mick said: "Mick, be modest, overdo it." ”

Mona nodded and agreed: "That's right, Mick, you don't have to be too modest, we all saw it outside, that senior was played around by your magic, and he really wasn't your opponent at all!" ”

But Mick said to Mona seriously: "Mona, although it seems that I have always had the upper hand, have you noticed that the senior didn't use too much magic throughout the game, and I consumed a lot of mental power?" So I just seized the opportunity and used a lot of magic to block the senior's counterattack, if you talk about the strength of the magician, there is not much difference between me and Senior Mark. ”

But Auston, who was reading the newspaper on the side, put down the newspaper and said with a smile: "Mick, think about your age, okay?" I don't think that Senior Mark will take what you just said as a compliment to him. ”

"That's it." Mona nodded in agreement.

Mick had nothing to say, shook his head and smiled, and lost the point of continuing to discuss the topic, and continued to read quietly on the sidelines.

Jasmine tried to open her mouth to talk to Mick several times, but finally chose to give up, causing the disappointment of the two sisters around her.

————————

On the other side, Kenneth walked upstairs, and after learning that Marcus was indeed in the house, he squeezed into the door regardless of what Marcus said, and saw Marcus looking frustrated, and his face was even more ugly like a zombie, and he said angrily: "Didn't you lose a game?" What do you do like this? ”

However, Marcas's face was pale, not all because he was depressed, but in the match with Clal, although Kral's punch did not hit him directly, the huge impact caused by the punch wind had already injured him a lot, even now his internal organs seemed to be aching.

But Marcus didn't want to show his cowardice in front of Kenneth, so he puffed up his chest and said, "What's wrong with me like this?" Isn't it good? ”

Kenneth picked up Marcus, who was a head shorter than himself, sat down side by side with him on the edge of the bed, and asked, "If it's all right, why don't you come back with us?" ”

"Cut, I don't know them well, why did you come back together?" Marcus pouted, his face full of disdain for the rest of the Phil Building, and of course this was what he really thought in his heart.

However, Kenneth suddenly thought of something, looked at Marcas with a wicked smile and said, "Oh ~ I know~ Are you afraid of being ridiculed by Bran and the others, so you sneaked back?" ”

"How is that possible?! Y-What nonsense are you?! Marcus stood up excitedly and shouted at Kenneth.

"Don't get excited, it seems like that...... Isn't it just killed by the boss in seconds? What's there to be shy about? Kenneth waved his hand at Marcus and said nonchalantly.

Marcus was poked to the sore spot by Kenneth's words, and his emotions couldn't help but get excited, and his neck flushed: "Isn't it a second kill?!" I managed to hold out for more than 20 seconds! ”

"Does it make a difference?" Kenneth spread his hands and said, "Don't get excited, come, tell me how the boss abused you at that time." ”

Marcus only hated that he was no match for the monster in human skin in front of him, and after glaring at Kenneth angrily, Kenneth glared back, so he had to sit back beside Kenneth and recount his short game: "At first, I lost the guess that I lost, and the bastard named Klar chose the arena, and I didn't think it made a difference, so I chose the distance of ten meters." At the beginning of the game, that guy came up and used an earth-based fourth-order magic, and my body sank at that time, about three or four times heavier than usual, and I could barely move. Then I saw that he was going to use a first-order magic again, trying to make it easy for me. But who am I? That's an assassin-turned-mage! I still escaped his magic in that situation! But I had just dodged that first-order magic, and he used another third-order magic, and his entire arm was wrapped in rocks, and his hands and feet were seven or eight meters high! The fist is bigger than the rest of me! So how can I hide? He punched him and knocked him out. ”

"Tsk, I even used fourth-order magic to deal with you? The boss really doesn't mean to show mercy to his subordinates......" Marcus originally thought that Kenneth would praise him a few words, but he didn't expect Kenneth to say such a contemptuous thing after hearing this, and he jumped up directly in anger, but when he thought that he couldn't beat Kenneth, he twisted his face and sat down slowly.

Kenneth patted Marcus on the shoulder and said with a big grin, "You were defeated by the Elders, what's so shameful about that?" ”

Marcus shook off Kenneth's hand angrily, looked at Kenneth strangely and said, "Hey, didn't you say that you were the one who wanted to be a hero?" Just admire him like that? It doesn't matter if you are easily defeated by him? ”

"How can it not matter?" Kenneth said to Marcus seriously, "The boss is very strong, and I don't know how long I can last under him now." But as long as you lose, you will definitely be unwilling, right? But there's nothing to be ashamed of, as long as you can win later? ”

Marcus glanced at Kenneth, "How do you know you'll be able to beat that president in the future?" ”

So Marcus looked at Kenneth patting his chest and said, "You think I'm you, I'm going to be a hero!" How can it be that he will be weaker than the boss in the future? ”

"Maniac!" Marcus saw that Kenneth always talked about heroes or something, so how could he take what Kenneth said seriously? So he sneered at his nose.

"Believe it or not!" Kenneth got up and said, "Anyway, I won't be like you, and if I lose the game, I will hide in my room like a little girl and dare not see anyone." ”

"Who do you say is the little girl?!" Marcus jumped to his feet in anger, and for Marcus, who had grown up in the group of adventurers, this sentence obviously deeply stabbed his dignity.

"No, you! Gentlemen! Don't forget you'll have to be on duty tonight! With that, Kenneth swaggered out of Marcus' room.

And Marcus, who was originally a little depressed, was interrupted by Kenneth like this, his chest was full of boiling anger, and the shame of being killed by Claire instantly turned into anger against Kenneth, and he vowed to beat Kenneth in the final exam. Marcus sat down at his desk and began to review the basics of magic and the history of magic.

————————

The selection battle is still going on nervously, starting at ten o'clock on the second day, it will be the semi-finals of each group, Mick's opponent is a fourth-year senior, and Kenneth's opponent is a man who has a grudge with Kenneth in the first round of chaos, he is Barrow Wood's younger brother, Charles Wood, known as "Honest Charles".

Kenneth looked at the senior in front of him, who was a head taller than him, and his eyes were full of hostility towards himself, so he pointed at himself curiously while the referee hadn't played, "Uh...... Do you know me? ”

Charles nodded, his voice slightly low: "Although you don't know me, I do know you." Don't worry, I'll knock you out. ”

Just when Kenneth was confused, the referee appeared, and it turned out to be Sophia, who was in charge of the first-year magic foundation class. And the mature and charming Sophia recognized Kenneth at a glance, who had been a topic of conversation for the past few months, so she smiled: "Kenneth, it seems that you are indeed not simple!" ”

"Hehe, thank you for the compliment~" Kenneth, who has never known what modesty is, touched his head and smirked.

Seeing this, Sophia let out a chuckle, took out the silver coin, looked at the two and said, "Who guesses first?" ”

Kenneth made a gesture of retreat, and Charles was not humble when he saw this, and said to Sophia, "Opposite." ”

So Charles chose the venue rights, and Kenneth got the distance options.

"Rainforest." Charles confirmed to Sophia.

Kenneth was stunned for a moment, then said, "Ten meters." ”

Sophia nodded, then smiled at Kenneth and was teleported out of the field.

After a few seconds, the field began to change, and the water vapor in the air reached a saturation state almost instantly.

"The hunt has begun." Kenneth seemed to hear Charles murmuring.
