Conquering The Game's World

After entering the Leviathan class, they were greeted by the sight of their classmates engrossed in study materials and doing a last-minute review.

"Yo! Buddy! Good morning!"

Ben greeted Luis, and his eyes darted in the direction of Diana.

"Morning Ben, are you prepared?" Luis asked, feeling amused.

Ben, whose attention was on Diana, didn't seem to hear his question.

"Hey, I'm talking to you. Are you sick?"

Luis' lips twitched upon seeing his lovesick friend. Alicia also covered her lips, hiding her faint smile, and stood there watching the show.

"Huh? Uh- yeah!" Ben said, snapping out of his daze. Then showed a confident grin. "I'm good! Better than ever! I've intensified my training! Just looking for a sparring partner."

When he said this, he also glanced at Diana to see her reaction.

As expected, Diana became interested.

"Sparring partner? Good! If you don't mind! I can be your sparring partner!"

"Really? That's great!" Ben became so excited that he couldn't stop his silly grin.

Luis also smiled and gave a thumbs-up upon seeing his friend happy.

Diana thought that, just like her, Ben was excited to have a sparring partner. She turned to Luis and whispered.

"Don't forget our deal…"

"Don't worry."

After getting his assurance, Diana left for her seat with a confident stride. Their secretive actions aroused Ben's interest. This matter concerned him a lot.

He came up to Luis and asked in whispers, "Buddy, what were the two of you talking about?"

"Are you interested?" Luis raised his brow. Then, seeing his nod. He patted his shoulder and spoke. "I'll tell you later. This is not the place to talk about it."

Ben nodded and didn't pester him about it. He could feel the seriousness in Luis' words.

Sometime later, Olivia, who was going to be their invigilator, came to the classroom, and the exam started.

Luis read the questions provided on his screen and started answering them one by one.

Time passed, as it was already 20 minutes past the time since the exam started. Just when Diana was getting anxious. She heard Luis' voice in her mind.

{Diana, let's start.}

Her eyes brightened, and she complained.

{Why did you take so much time?}

{It took a little longer to answer all the questions. Now we can start.}

{Wait! Have you already completed answering all the questions?}

{Or else? Stop wasting time and write the answers as I dictate.}

His words shocked Diana. He completed the 3 hours test within 20 minutes! What kind of inhumane person this is? She hasn't answered a single question yet.

However, she wasn't entangled for too long. As Luis had already started dictating the answers.

Olivia stood near the podium, observing the bunch of students in front of her. Under her pressure, no student dared to cheat. But when she saw some students' nervous looks, she wondered if the average of her class was going to be low this time.

Above all, the one she was concerned about most was her naïve disciple, Diana Tres.

'Why hasn't she started writing yet?'

Upon seeing Diana's anxious expression, Olivia started having a headache.

'Didn't she study? My constant warnings should have at least motivated her, right?'

Olivia had some hope in her heart, but even after the 15 minutes of the exam. Diana hadn't answered a single question.

'I shouldn't have raised her expectations.'

However, right when it was 20 minutes past the exam. Diana's anxiousness disappeared and, concentrating on the test, she started writing answers at an amazing speed.

'Did she give up and now she plans to write whatever comes to her mind?'

Olivia sighed, feeling a little pity for her stupid disciple. She was considering whether to be lenient with her at the time of punishment.

Unbeknownst to her, Diana was on fire, as she wrote the answers dictated by Luis through her mind.

'Hehe~ Perfect marks.'

'Professor Olivia, you are in for a big surprise.'

Thinking so, Diana showed an excited smile.

After the exam ended. The students had free time to prepare for tomorrow's exam. So, there were no classes.

Most of the students left with their teammates. Luis was also going to meet with his team but after lunch. So, he had some free time for himself.

Alicia had left to find her teammates, leaving him alone.

'… What to do. Should I just go to Battle Arena and challenge someone?'

However, he soon dismissed that thought.

'Nah, I can do that when I return to the dorm.'

'Should I mess with the plot characters? I haven't contacted Seraphina yet.'

Luis pondered, then shook his head.

'No, the time's not appropriate.'

While Luis was deep in thought, he heard a voice beside him.

"Buddy."

"What is it, Ben?"

"Are you free?" Ben asked.

"Yeah, I am. Until after lunch."

"Great! Then come with me! I've found a good place to play and the food there is tasty."

"… You just want to ask about the previous matter, right?" Luis showed a knowing smile.

Ben didn't expect to get seen through by him so easily.

"Yes… Is it alright?"

"Hmm, it's fine. But it will be your treat."

Luis wasn't short on money. However, the feeling of making your friend treat yourself is very satisfying.

"No problem!" Ben patted his chest and assured. "It's all on me."

"Then let's go." Luis smiled.

Diana wanted to thank Luis, but when she saw the leaving figures of Luis and Ben. She stopped herself.

'He is with his friend. It would be inappropriate for me to intrude right now. Let's thank him later.'

If Ben knew about Diana's thoughts at this moment, he would have cried for sure.

'It's fine to intrude! Rather, I welcome it!'

However, a missed opportunity is a missed opportunity. Nothing can be done about it now. Unless he can travel back in time, like someone.

Inside the Jormundgar Classroom.

A beautiful green girl sat in her seat with a deep frown on her face. It's not that her test went bad. Rather, there was something else concerning her.
