Book 1: Chapter 99: Second Round Rules

Scarlet

I welcome you all back from the first round of the tournament! the vice-headmasters voice echoes throughout the auditorium before he continues, Behind me you will see the results of your hard work, and the initial ranking after the first round!

Most of the students in the room were already reading the names on the list, with many of them voicing surprise at the sight of a Class I first year so high up on them. But the vice-headmaster doesnt give them any time to talk about it as he says, Now we will be moving onto the second round of the tournament! This one is quite different from the first round. He suddenly begins to levitate into the air with a small cloud of greenish black mist beneath his feet before moving up to the rules and magnifying them to be larger for us.

The secondary round of the tournament will take place in a magical reality imitating a forest on Tartarus.

Every student will be placed in the same forest in the same magical reality, and they will be given points for slaying demons.

The forest will be separated into two parts.

The outer ring of the forest will have only Class I demons, with their levels increasing as the students get closer to the inner ring.

The inner ring of the forest will have Class II demons, with their levels increasing as the students get closer to the center, which will have a single Class III demon.

Demons will give points depending on their levels.

Demons at levels 1-50 will give one point apiece to all students involved in their killing, including non-combat focused Guardians.

Killing a demon gives points corresponding to the level of the demon to everyone who participated in its death, with every fifty levels giving an additional point starting at level 1 giving a single point to each person who participated in its hunt, and the Class III demon giving fifty total points spread across whoever kills it instead of each participant getting the same reward, the vice-headmaster continues while floating up to the very center of the auditorium in the air. You may kill other students to steal a fifth of their points but be warned that you can only do this if that student is of the same Class as you or higher. He glances at several people who Im assuming are Class III judging by their mana. And there are punishments for a student killing students of a lower Class than themselves. He returns his gaze to everyone again. Last but not least, if you are killed by a fellow student, you will be respawned somewhere at random in the same ring of the forest you spawned in. But if youre killed by a demon then youre out for good.

Nothing that isnt already said in the rules posted on the screen. Although I guess some people just have the attention spans of a gnat and dont want to read, having to be told bluntly by someone instead. Which is a little sad, but true, nonetheless.

Even I felt a little annoyed at the idea of reading through a couple of the contracts I had to sign for joining the Silver Association. Because those things were really long.

The chatter in the auditorium raises slightly in volume for a few seconds before the vice-headmaster finishes, You will all be sent to the magical reality in ten minutes. Take this small break as a time to mentally prepare yourselves for the second round. He then vanishes as a large amount of black and dark green mist begin to swallow him up before disappearing into the ground.

At his exit, the chatter becomes a low roar as full blown conversations break out everywhere. Many of which are talking about the top one hundred, including people talking about myself. But I ignore them to focus on the others as Belle asks, How did you manage to make it into the top one hundred?

I answer rather bluntly, By challenging everyone in my dome.

Her eyes practically bug out at that, but I continue before she can say anything, Although around half or so of them declined, which was disappointing.

That doesnt seem to help her surprise.

I just give a mental shrug at that before turning to Michael to find him not surprised. And neither are Emily or Denise. Although Denise was there, so this isnt any news for her.

Anyways, Emily and Michael begin talking about their own domes, leaving me to just sit back and listen to them for a while. Until Belle gets over her shock that is and joins in.
